[Deep down, Yuta thinks this move is probably temporary too, but it's never stopped him from getting attached. He knows all his classmate's names, is friendly with most of them- but he's never had a conversation with Maki Zenin.
It's not even because she's so intimidating- it's more like Yuta knows who he is, and that's someone a girl like Maki would have no reason to entertain. She's so cool, strangely honorable despite her delinquent status, and Yuta can feel himself staring at her instead of doing anything useful.
He gasps as her kendo stick makes impact, throwing a hand up to protect himself from the gore, and watches through his fingers as two of the boys make an attempt to sprint, readily abandoning their friends.
Maybe he should be more scared, but Yuta finds that instead it's leeching out of him, replaced by awe. His eyes practically sparkle as Maki's fist collides with another face- she's so strong, and so fast.
At the other end of the courtyard, a small crowd has started to form, and Yuta thinks he can see one of their teachers beginning to wind their way through the students. On impulse, he grabs at Maki's arm, a likely dangerous choice, and tries to drag her in the other direction and further down the alley, determined that she won't get in trouble for saving him.]
Quick! Trust me, there's a hole in the fence over here!
