Hugging your knees

...you gazed at the T.V that was in front of you. The sunset painted the skies with warm colors of pinks and oranges through the clear stained windows.

A warm blanket wrapped around your entire body as you leaned against the wall, the only thing visible was your head that peaked out so you could watch the scary movie that was playing.

That day Suna was the one that came into the bathroom, he was worried you were taking to long so he rushed to see if something had happened. When he burst through the door his gaze fell down to your figure who had Akami wrapped around your waist.

Now you were in his room, on his bed, watching a horror movie as he went to the kitchen to get you water.

You couldn't help but think about Akami, the look of desperation and hatred on her face when she told you not to call her mom. It ached your heart but you did it.

You made Suna call her mom and she was taken home, but you did the right thing, right? Yeah, you did, she's safe now at least and can get some professional treatment for her wounds.

She couldn't stay mad at you forever, right?

Suna opened the door slowly as he walked in, and then closing it with his foot, "Hey, are you okay?"
He questioned as he extended his arm towards you to give you the glass of water.

You nodded, forcing a smile to spread across your face, "Yeah, of course I am." Taking the glass from his hands you held it with both your hands keeping it close to your face. As your gaze fell right back to T.V.

Beside you Suna also wrapped himself in a blanket as he scooted closer to you so he could lay his head on your shoulder. As you took a sip of water you jumped slightly at the jump scare that made no warning and appeared on the screen.

You looked at Suna as he began speaking, "You know you did the right thing, (Y/n)." His voice was soft and calm as he spoke, "She was just having a moment..."

"...Yeah, I know," You sighed, "I would much rather her be upset with me and safe than anything else, I don't regret my decision." You spoke confidently.

You placed your glass on the table beside you as you scooted closer to Suna. He then reached his hand out to grab yours, "Hey— what are you..."

"Who did this too you."

His tone of seriousness took you aback as he held you hand gently analyzing it before turning to look at you. When he did turn to you you looked off to the side, "No one did this to me, it was an accident." You cringed as you remembered the feeling of glass penetrating your skin.

Suna put a hand to your cheek, gently forcing you to look him in the eyes. He nodded, "I know your lying, but when your ready to tell me the truth I'll be here to listen."

Your eyes widened, you weren't really sure what to say at that moment. If Suna saw right through it... does that mean the rest of the team did too?"

You looked down at your hands before looking up at him, a genuine smile appeared on your face. His greenish eyes stared into yours as you spoke softly.

"Thank you."
***

Flipping through your notes you chewed at the end of your pen. You raised a brow as you looked at the sheet in front of you and then the notes that were right beside you. We didn't learn this...

You heard a knock coming from your door, "Come in!" You called from your bed as you gazed up to look at the person who has entered your room. Your expression didn't change as you greeted them, "Hey mom."

She has a bowl in her hands as she smiled, "I cut up some fruit and I know you're studying so I was hoping you would want a little break." She chirped as she walked up to your table placing the bowl beside a small pile books.

"Oh— fruit does sound nice." You smiled back at her, "Thank you!"

Mirroring your smile she clasped her hands together, "Great!" And with that she left the room closing the door behind her.

Your room was quiet again as she her presence was no longer in the room. Nowadays it was hard to tell if her smile was genuine or not. You knew what the fruit was for though, it was her way of apologizing.

She might have remembered small parts of your conversations from the other night and this was her way of saying sorry. You rolled your eyes, because she had too much pride it was so hard for her to apologize verbally. Ugh, Moon Taurus...

Grabbing the bowl you sat back down on your bed, as you looked through your phone.

Akami hadn't texted you for the past two days. You at least were hoping she was okay.

Shaking it off you picked up your pen again, she will talk to you when she is ready. You couldn't let sad thoughts overwhelm you right now, you had to focus on the exciting week that would be coming in a week or so.

Taking a deep breath you exhaled through your mouth, "I got this." You whispered to yourself confidently.

If the past few months had taught you anything, it's that patience is important. And that you were a very impatient person but nonetheless you did what was better for you.

And that was seeing that your childhood friend would be healthy.

Even if it meant she probably wouldn't talk to you for a while.
