POV of Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu

   A picnic, sounds nice. It may even help distract me. I'm so glad that I've got Peko and Ibuki there for me.
   You almost embraced the despair and forced me out of hiding dumbass. Normally I would applaud such behavior but your timing is terrible dude!
   It's not like you care, it's my life not yours.
   I have a life too stupid, they'll kill Peko if they know I'm here so don't.
   O-okay. As long as Peko is safe. She's everything to me.
   That's what I thought. Now stop staring out into space like a possessed person.
   I AM possessed.
   Ouch.
   Shut the fuck up, don't you get off on this shit or something?
   It may be a fetish...
   That's what I thought, you have no room to talk so stay quiet.
   "How hard do you want your meat? Rock hard or tender~?" Teruteru's pervy sentence towards Peko snapped me back out of my mind. I leaned down.
   "Don't talk to her like that or you'll end up just like Hiyoko." I whispered down in his ear.
   "Waaaah okay okay! Sorry!" The alarm in his eyes was unmistakable as he backed up towards where the knifes were stored. I rolled my eyes at the short chef and strolled out of the room with Peko.
   "Fuyuhiko, are you alright?" Peko said cautiously. I perked my head up. After all of those years of telling her to call me by my real name she finally did. I looked up at her concerned face and leaned up to kiss her.
   "OMG OMG YOU GUYS ARE SO CUUUUUTE TOGETHER KISS AGAIN KISS AGAI- oh sorry I'm not supposed to be super loud about it it's just you two are so friggin cute!" Ibuki screamed from 20 feet away startling both Peko and myself.
   "Dammit I can't get any privacy around here..." I say.
   "Anyways I got the stuff from TeruTeru, he was actually not too bad to me with the pervy stuff or whatever." She said rubbing her neck with one hand and holding up a basket with the other.
   "I-I'm hereaaaaah! I'M SO SORRY!!" Mikan came running and fell in Ibuki's arms almost knocking the food basket out of her hands.
   "Woah! Caught you!" Ibuki giggled with a smile. Mikan smiled at her and blushed.
   "We got everyone and we're all ready let's go!" Ibuki grinned taking Mikan by the hand and leading us away to our picnic spot.
   We ended up sitting underneath a palm tree, in the shade but with a view of the entire island. Suddenly I see Hiyoko making her way up the hill followed by everyone else.
   "What's her problem now? She didn't get her beating hard enough last time or something?" Ibuki remarked, trying to lighten the dense mood. No this is all wrong, this isn't something that is constantly keeping us at each other's throats. I mean, if one of us dies the other is immediately a suspect.
   "Peko..." I grit my teeth as I speak and Peko immediately steps in front of me.
   "Hey Fuyuhiko I need to say something to you. And I can say it in front of everyone but it's slightly embarrassing. I'm sorry about setting you off, I didn't know it would get me hurt that bad." Hiyoko said, sounding sincere.
   "I'm not the one you need to apologize to..." I glance at both Ibuki and Mikan, "They are." And she apologized to both of them with her cheeks burning in shame.
   "I have something I would like to say to you as well Hiyoko." I walked up to her so we were face to face, she winced with every step I took.
   "Don't worry I've calmed down,  I'm not gonna hurt you. I need to apologize as well, I shouldn't have let my emotions take control of me like that and I'm sorry." I said, trying to hold tears back.
   "I-its okay..." Hiyoko said taking a step back.
   "Thank you." She said, smiling weakly. She turned and walked down the hill, I looked around at everyone else and they all looked at me expectantly. I told them that I couldn't tell them why I went off like that and that I'm still not going to the party. They looked disappointed and trotted back down the hill.
   "W.O.W." Ibuki said whistling in disbelief. We were all slightly confused. That was the very first time Hiyoko has apologized to anyone except for Mahiru.
   We finish our picnic and go our different ways. Ibuki, Mikan, and Peko went to go get ready for the party they were going to later; And I went on a walk around the island.
   It was calming. The voice in my head quiet, and no loud people to shatter the sweet silence. Time to collect my thoughts and sort out my feelings. I lock some memories back up in an even tighter area where they're never going to escape, and began to sort out how I felt about a few things.
   Peko. My cheeks warm up at the thought of her. Is it love? It must be. Everytime I think of her my heart races and my face gets hot, and I can hardly stop thinking about her. I can't even stand someone looking at her the wrong way. I know I shouldn't feel this way, feelings like this lead to heartbreaks.
   "Oof!" I make a small sound when I run face first into a tree. I must've been so immersed in thought that I was unaware of my surroundings. I look around completely aware and see that the sun's beginning to set, I look aty watch. 6:41 P.M. The party's started and I can also see the lights flooding from around the corner.
   I slowly start walking again and I can begin to hear voices. Laughter. I sigh and keep walking. I see Chiaki and Monomi outside like they were standing guard. They both wave to me and I wave back, not smiling.
   Despite their questions I ignore them and keep walking. I don't even know what they're asking because I'm slipping back into my thoughts again. 
   I find a hill nearby and sit down with my back up against a palm tree. Suddenly Monokuma is next to me also. He's chuckling slightly.
   "What do you want fuzzball?" I snap at him.
   "Awww you're not excited to see me?" Monokuma said sadly.
   "No not really." I reply coldly.
   "Just wanted to warn you about getting an alabi." He said getting up and waddling towards me.
   "Excuse me?" I sit up completely alert.
   "Nothinggg" He said waddling away like a black and white penguin.
   Whatever. He's just trying to pile even more stress on me. Something does feel wrong though... The lights are off in the old building that they're using as a party venue.
   Maybe they're doing a blacklight thing or something in there.
   I get up and walk towards the party checking my watch when I notice that the lights are spilling back out of the building.
   Almost 8 pm.
   Suddenly I hear screaming through the open door and I'm running. Please let Peko be okay, please let Peko be okay. I barrel inside the room to see everyone in shock, staring at a table with a terrifying scene.

Author's Note:
I'm so sorry for not posting in forever. Musical practices now go until 5:30 after school and opening night is less than a week away, also I had a history essay I needed to prepare for and it's really been really stressful lately and I also had stress about writing so this relieved some stress by not only getting it out but relieving some of the character tension in the story. Again I am so so so so so so sorry about not writing and since I have my essay turned in and it's almost time for the musical and school is almost over I should have more time to write, more ideas, and hopefully less stress on other things. But I might do summer school to give me the upper in high school. I'm planning to take college level classes as soon as they're available to me so I can graduate with as many college credits as I possibly can because I want a good paying job that takes a lot of college to get to but it's good paying and why am I sharing my whole life plan I don't know. So yeah, thank you for being patient with me I appreciate it.
