chapter 9

Kyle really did like teaching. Most of the time anyway. So, he was more than happy to help one of his students out. Plus, he hoped it would distract him from the amount of food he had gotten. Normally he would have bought a normal sized meal and eaten it on his way home, but the recent cold days had fueled his desire for warm food and everything here was so cheap so why not just really go all out. The problem was that it had become too large of a meal to eat before he arrived at home and he shouldn’t be eating and driving at the same time anyway, especially not with the additional danger of slippery roads.

And another problem was that he now had to feel self-conscious about how much he was eating in front of this kid. Well, he had to start somewhere and so he decided to grab some fries while he explained what the way of solving the math problem would be.

But it was so easy to talk to this kid, who didn’t look at him with any sort of distaste in his eyes, that he quickly forgot about his fears and ate like he would normally around friends. By the time they were done looking at the exercise, he had already finished one of his burgers and his fries and had started on the nuggets.

Kyle was about to ask if he wanted any more help when the kid received a text on his phone, and the wallpaper on it caught his eye.

“You watch Assassination Classroom?”

A startled face. “What?”

“That’s Nagisa there on your phone.”

An impressed face. “You know Assassination Classroom?”

“Well yes, it’s one of my favorite Anime” Kyle knew that he must be the coolest teacher in school, because he watches anime. (Yes I remembered It was in the character description so I thought, heck, this could be something they can bond over)

Thus followed a vigorous conversation about various different characters and moments of the anime, and what other anime they watched.

“Hmm maybe if you don’t do well in the exam, I might blow up the planet later” He used his best impression of Koro-Sensei, which wasn’t a very good one.

“Not if I assassinate you first”

“You stand no chance, I am unkillable”

Both were chuckling a little and Kyle took a sip from his shake before popping the last of the donut in his mouth. Damn, he hadn’t realized he’d already eaten everything. Nice company just made it easier, he supposed. Taking a moment to appreciate the satisfying feeling of fullness he had (quite literally) grown to enjoy, he realized a moment to late the burp that had been building up inside him. Embarrassed, Kyle looked at the kid to see his reaction but was relieved to see an amused look on his face.

“Wow, Koro-Sensei never did that”

Kyle nervously took another sip of his shake. “Well, he wasn’t such a pig, huh?” Fuck, why would he say something like that, the situation was bad enough as is.

A short pause, but then the response: “Well, he kinda was actually…”

“Hmm, I guess I am more like him than I thought.”

“Well I mean you don’t really look like an octopus, so you’ve got that going for you.”

And the conversation was back to normal.

(Authors note again: I don’t know if I’m doing a good job writing these characters or if it is even necessary for a weight gain story but hey, It’s pretty fun to write them and I hope everything is alright)
