Charades! The word is ASK:
The air conditioners were ramped up so they were rattling to fight a battle with the heat, a battle ferocious enough to par the sword dance of black and white (Kirito vs. Asuna).
It was a study day in world language class and the teacher decided to use yet another "fun" way to study and learn. Charades. The teacher would randomly call out two partners in the room after everyone chose partners and put them against each other.
Half the class was asleep and snoring. Nothing eventful really happens and it's easy to get away with sleeping when the attention of the teacher is on the charade players. As people like Nochizawa Eiji and Kirito were sleeping while. Asuna tried to pay attention to the monotone "games" of charade being played.
"Asuna and Kazuto!"the teacher called.
Kazuto's head flew up with a snort and he looked around in panic, "W-what? Monster? Where?!"
Asuna smacked him the back of the head and huffed, "You're drooling, Kazuto. Wipe it before we go up to play charades." Although she possessed a tough tone, Asuna still leaned in and wiped the drool off Kazuto's cheek with her shirt sleeve before dragging him up to the front of the classroom.
The two boys against them yawned as they stood there, eyes sleepy and bored.
Asuna sat in the chair to be the guesser automatically. Kazuto frowned. He wanted to sit. There was no way he was going to get out of being a fool for being bad at acting it out, was there?
"Kazuto you first!"the teacher announced cheerily. This guy still seems to not have noticed the attitude of the students. He must've been having a really good day or was just trying to stay happy.
The teacher leans over Asuna's head and shows Kazuto the card he has to act out.
The word is "ask".
Damned charades. How are you supposed to portray asking? The only thing people will think you're doing is talking.
Then he saw the paper clip box on the teacher's desk. He takes it, whips around to Asuna, gets on one knee and opens the box and pretends to talk without making noise.
Asuna's face goes from I can do this! To W-what?! Is this for real?
She was too shocked to even think it could possibly be a word, not to even mention guess what word.
By now every person in the class is awake. They were roaring, hooting, jokingly screaming, "SAY YES", but not one person was guessing the word.
Even the teacher was laughing while he was counting down. "3...2…1… TIME'S UP THE WORD WAS ASK!"he shouted over everyone.
As the laughter died down, Kazuto was in an outrage, "How was that hard to guess?! I was asking! Asking a question!"
He earned another smack in the back of his head from Asuna. Her face was completely read and she said, "Baka!(Japanese: Idiot!)" And then stormed off back to her seat.
Kazuto ambled back to his seat, face confused, and tried to get Asuna's attention again with no avail.
A/N: Okay since I did a heavier oneshot last time I wanted to get in a funnier one since everyone seems to enjoy those more. This is quite a bit shorter. But that's the thing with the funny oneshots. I can't really drag them out any longer or it wouldn't be funny anymore.
This is something that once again actually happened. It was a class me and my at the time boyfriend were both in. However it wasn't us that got picked but a guy and a girl who were just classmates which was why it was funnier cause the guy was genuinely confused why the girl didn't guess it and the girl was genuinely shocked and scarred. Afterwards my boyfriend joked that it was a good idea to use for a "promposal".
I hope you guys enjoyed this oneshot. Until next time.
