◇unfortunate future◇

As much as you wanted a break before explaining everything to kokichi, you decided it'd be best to get it over with as soon as possible. Once again you got out your med-kit and made your way to your bedroom. Kokichi was laying silently on your bed, with his eyes closed. You couldn't tell if he was resting or not. You made your way over to your bed, crouching down near his face.

"Hey, you up?"

After no response, you began to gently nudge him. He groaned and slowly sat up.

"Morning sleepy head, did you have a good nap?"

Kokichi only groaned again as a response, though thats what you expected. He hadn't taken any painkillers and was half bandaged up after all. A part of you felt bad for not giving then to him when he first woke up, but the past was in the past now.

"Alright, let's finish patching you up"

You propped Kokichi up on the headboard of your bed as you began to finish bandaging him. It remained quiet the entire time, you couldn't tell if he was dozing off or was just silently suffering. When you looked up to see his face he was looking away from you, visibly flushed pink.

At first you didn't understand why; if you didn't know any better you'd brush it off as him just being embarrassed that he was shirtless. Then you thought about how jarring this must be for him. Even if waking up half taken care of in a friend's house and the Kaede situation was ignored, it'd still probably feel bizarre being so attentively cared for. At least for him anyway, he was practically bullied and mistreated everyday after all. A frown made it's way to your face at the reoccurring thought. Hopefully you could change that soon...

After you finished bandaging him up and finally giving back his shirt, you started to explain everything that happened. From when you "randomly" found him passed out to when kaede left. Though you left out the breakup part. Once you were done explaining everything, it fell quiet once again. Then, much to your surprise, Kokichi broke the silence.

"W-why?"

'Huh, why? What does he mean "why"?'

Another short moment of panic stirred inside of you.

'What does he mean by that? Oh God what if he saw me walk away when he was being bullied-'

Apperently the confusion on your face was visible enough for him to notice. He continued.

"I...I meant why did you take c-care of me. You could've just left"

Oh, that was surprisingly better than you expected. You didn't really know how to respond though. You can't just tell the truth and say "I was waiting for you to stumble back only half beaten, but the bullies did more of a toll on you than I thought. Sorry!"
...
Well actually you could, you doubt Kokichi would leave because of it, but it still wasn't a good look.

"Ah, I mean I couldn't just leave you there. You were badly hurt."

You took his hands into yours, put on a soft smile, and looked up at Kokichi.

"Plus, what type of friend would I be if I left you all hurt and alone?"

His face flushed almost immediately. A genuine smile showed on your face when you saw his reaction, you thought was funny how easily you could make him blush. Maybe even guilty pleasure.

"Y-yeah"

His embarrassed stutter got a small laugh from you. You loved liked seeing his reactions more than you could admit. Though, unfortunately, making him blush more would have to wait. You have to make sure he eats. He hadn't had anything to eat after lunch up until now, and it was pretty late.

"Hey, can you stand?"

You asked tenderly. You didn't bother asking if he was hungry or not since you knew he'd say no out of politeness.

He nodded and, with a little bit of your help, stood up. You lead him to the couch and sat him down. You could tell he was still in a bit of pain when he winced once he fully sat. At least he could take the pain medicine with his food. You made your way to the kitchen and began to search for some leftovers. As much as you cared about Kokichi, you were tired and didn't want to cook a whole meal for him.

After rummaging around you found some leftover Yaki onigiri and yakisoba you and Kokichi could eat. It wasn't much but it was enough for you both to be full. You warmed up the food and set the plates. Kokichi got more food on his than yours because you thought he needed it. When you brought out the plates you could see his eyes brighten at the food. A small smile crossed your face, you were glad you put extra on his plate. You began placing the plates down as Kokichi began speaking.

"Y-you didn't have to do all of this for me, r-really"

"Nonsense, its polite to have friends eat when over. Besides I wanted to do this anyway"

His face became flushed again, and as much as you wanted to indulge in his reaction you felt like you couldn't. This really felt like the bare minimum to you and to see him react like it was above and beyond tugged at your heartstrings a bit. You sighed and smiled

"I'll get us drinks, okay"

He nodded and you made your way back in the kitchen. You didn't feel like waiting for tea this time so you picked out some sodas. You grabbed a random one while you specifically grabbed a grape panta for Kokichi. You remembered him saying he liked them in conversation once. You started to walk back to the living room but before you could even exit the kitchen you got a text.

Usually you would just continue what you were doing and check the text later, but this time you wanted to check it now so it wouldn't ruin your time with Kokichi. You set the drinks down and grabbed your phone out of your pocket. Much to your surprise the text was from Rantaro. Maybe he was finally regretting breaking up with Kaede.

Hey, you still up?
11:23

You silently sighed and responded

yep why need something?
11:24

He responded back almost immediately

Yeah, I wanted to ask you something
11:24

ask me what?
11:24

Much to your annoyance, he didn't respond back as fast this time. You tapped your feet in impatience.

Would you mind coming to talk with me tomorrow?
At a café?
11:26

It took all of your will power to not just turn off your phone and pretend you didn't see the message. At first you were going to turn you phone off and answer later.

But you didn't want to make assumptions. Maybe he just wanted to talk to you about getting Kaede back and wanted to be more formal instead of going to your house or visa versa.

A heavy sight left your mouth as you responded.

sure just give me a time and place
11:27

Nice, ill text it to you tomorrow
11:27

alright goodnight
11:27

Goodnight
11:27

You didn't even know what to do for a second. You just agreed to go to a café. With Rantaro. Right after he broke up with Kaede. You took a few seconds to get your thoughts together before grabbing your drinks and walking to the living room.

"Sorry for taking so long! It took me a while to decide what drinks to get"

"O-oh it's no problem"

You sat the drinks down and began to eat with Kokichi

°you didn't want to deal with what tomorrow had to bring°
