Riku saw Senna jump out of the fifth story building with elegance. But to his surprise, Senna landed face first towards the ground. The ground shook as a small crater was made due to the impact. Riku chuckled to himself at the sight of Senna’s bear printed pantsu. Senna got up and as tears started to drip down from her beautiful face. As soon as she saw Riku, she ran towards him and hugged him.

“..mmph…s..top”

Riku could not escape from Senna’s inhumane strength. Her grip had pulled Riku towards Senna’s chest. Even though Riku was slightly taller, he could not breathe as Senna’s mountains were squashing him like a bug.

“Riku.. I’m sorry”

Senna said with a worried face as she slowly let loose of the confused Riku. Riku was speechless at the materialization of his friend. Just an hour ago Senna was a figment of his imagination, but now a beauty was standing in front of him.

Senna’s thumbs were twiddling each other as she was looking up into Riku’s red eyes. She was expecting Riku to break the ice.

“So… erm..”

“So when are we getting married?!”

“Huh..wha”

“I can’t believe I can finally touch Riku! We can now get married, have 40 children and …do ecchi…”

Before Riku could even finish his first sentence, Senna interrupted him and said a lot of bizarre things. She was really excited until she said ecchi, her face turned bright red. Riku however was calm, he had already been thinking of the incidents that happened thus far and was thinking of how to get rid of Senna.

Up till now, Senna was Riku’s limiter. She was what kept him sane and prevented Riku from killing himself as she shared the load of Riku’s misery. But with Senna acting like she was clinically insane in front of him. He was puzzled as on what to do next. He then let out a sigh as Senna kept rambling about her future with Riku.

“Look, I’m only going to say this once. The sun is setting and I have to get back to the dormitory …don’t follow me”

Riku then started to run but Senna clung on to his leg and refused to let go no matter how hard he shook. In the end, Riku had to drag Senna all the way back to his room. When he walked in the dormitory, there were stares filled with envy and curiosity that came from other students.

Senna face was brimming with happiness when she entered Riku’s room. The room was a small 1 room apartment with just the basic necessities such a bed and desk. But Riku’s room was filled with books, lots of books. Senna was running around his room and kicking all the books that got in her way.

Riku climbed into bed ignoring Senna. He felt that if he intervened, Senna would cause a bigger problem. His bed was soft and it sunk in when Riku landed on it. All Riku wanted to do was forget about Senna’s existence and go to sleep. But unexpectedly, Senna crawled into his bed and laid right next to him. She then gave Riku a soft hug. The soft sensation pressing on his back made a shiver run down his spine.

“Get off.”

“No!”

Senna objected and refused to get off his bed. Riku turned around as he wanted to reprimand Senna for being annoying. But when he turned around their face were right next to each other. Senna blushed and went silent. She closed her eyes and sticked out her lips as if expecting something. Riku’s hand covered Sena’s face as he pushed her head first off his bed.

*Crash*

Senna fell into a pile of books as she looked up and pout.

“Why?!”

“Your annoying…”

“Aren’t we friends?!”

That last sentence shut Riku up immediately. From the moment Senna was real until now, the only thought he had about her was that she was annoying. But after that reply from Senna, he was now looking at her as a friend. The same girl that stuck with him throughout the years. No matter what Riku did, Senna was always by his side. Only that she did not exist for real of course.

Riku then got off the bed and sighed.

“Fine… you can sleep on the bed”

Senna pouted again when Riku gave her the luxury of sleeping on the bed. She pushed him on the bed again and kissed him. Their lips locked for a good 5 seconds before Senna lifted her face to match Riku’s. He could feel her breath breezing past him.

“I want to sleep with you!”

“Why?”

“…I love you”

Riku then pushed her off him as that last reply from Senna had caught him off-guard yet again.

“I’m sorry but I can never love you”

“…I know”

Senna looked down as her face showed a painful expression. Senna knew everything about Riku, after all she was created from Riku’s imagination. Her existence was only to be one to comfort him, not as a love interest but as a friend. No more, no less. Senna then proceeded to sleep next to his books. Riku then took his only blanket and covered it on Senna. Riku the walked up and lay on his bed staring up at the ceiling, thinking if what he had said to Senna was too harsh. Closing his heavy eyes and giving into his tiredness, he fell asleep.
