Good and Bad

Chapter 3

We're walking side my side, and I keep stealing quick looks at him. "Why are you so quiet?" I ask, breaking the silence. "I just don't like socializing I guess" he shrugs, "why not?" I push. "I don't know," he replies. "Well you seem like a nice guy" I say, "I would have expected you to have one of those pushover girlfriends, that are always polite and follow rules" I look at him and smile.

"That's not really my type of woman" he says looking me in the eyes

"Well what is your type of woman?" I ask, nudging his shoulder. "I bet you like being controlled in bed, but like being in power in everyday life" I say making him stop, I stop as well and get closer to him,

"What? Spot on wasn't I?" I ask, looking him in the eyes, he looks at my lips a little too long. Of course I take the hint and cup his face with one hand, and pull him closer to me with the other. I look him in the eyes one last time, we are centimeters apart. He closes his eyes waiting for me to make the move. I really want him to be mine,

"do you submit to everyone this quick?" I say to him.

He opens his eyes and takes a moment to process the events that just happened. I let go of him, "come on, I'm hungry" I say, offering my hand. He takes it and continues walking, I realize we're in a nice neighborhood, he lives in this area? We're still holding hands as we walk up the driveway. He opens the door and leads me inside, he takes his shoes off at the door and I copy him. I'm still getting used to the customs here. "My parents aren't home, just sit here" he says pointing to the floor with a short table. It's not in my nature to follow orders, "why?" I ask, "I can help you cook" I say putting my hair into a ponytail.

~Time skip~

We're now sitting at the table, I have no idea what we just made. It looks good, but why are there so many bowls? Can't we just use plastic ones? Those are what we used back home. Whatever, I'll help him wash dishes. We've been talking this whole time, I didn't say anything stupid like I normally would. He told me about his family, and how he loves games so much. I found out what the thing he carries around all the time is. I also told him about my family back home, and told him I would make him some tacos, since I don't know where they sell some here. I also told him about the pozole my mother used to make. She gave me the recipe. I'm just really lazy.

"Can we eat now?" I ask, "I'm starving

"Yes, we can," he says giggling.

I say my thank you's and begin eating. It is SO GOOD. I was not eating like a 'lady' would but, do I care? Nope. "So, Kenma, do you like anyone at school?" I ask him. "I think I might," he says, I'm a little sad but, "ouuu, so I have competition now" I say laughing a bit.

"Why are you always flirting with me?" he asks me seriously, "well if I'm being honest" I stop, "at first I was only doing it for fun, but now I like seeing the way you react to stuff" I say in total honesty. We stare at each other for a moment, I can see his lips start to curl into a smile, but it stops. "I pay attention to everything you know," I say taking another bite. "Do you really?" he asks, "mhm" I hum still chewing. We continue to eat in comfortable silence.

Kenma's POV

I don't understand Y/N at all. She seems unapproachable, but she's being so nice right now. I tried asking her about her family, but she didn't say anything. All she said was that it was complicated. I wonder why she's so closed off, did something happen in the past? I have so many questions, and I will get answers.

"So why did you move here? Aren't you from America?" I ask her

"I had some problems with my parents, and decided to come live with my sister." she says, "I'm moving out once I can get a job" she tells me, so she does have issues with her family. "Don't feel sorry for me, I'm fine" she says coldy. I don't know if I was cold, but I got a shiver up my spine when she said it. Wow, she is actually kinda scary.

"Can I just ask one question?" I ask

"Go for it, but only one" She says

"Are you really okay?" I ask, "and be honest" I clarify

"No, I'm not okay" she says looking up, "but I'm sure someday I will be" she continues. "The only thing keeping me at bay is knowing that I will have true happiness someday" With that she stands up and grabs her phone. She begins calling someone, "S/N i'm staying at a friends house tonight" huh who? I didn't know she had friends, "Me perdí cuando venía de la escuela, no te preocupes por mi estoy bien" I have no idea what that means, "está bien bye, Ah! Y no tengo escuela mañana" whatever I'll just clean up the table. "Ora, bye, te quiero".

"Kenma, is it cool if I stay over?" she asks, I stop in my tracks

"Huh?"

"Well it's late and I don't know how to get back to my place so, can I?" she's waiting for me to answer, I mean I guess I have to let her, there's no way I'm letting her out this late at night.

"Okay, but you can't be loud, because my parents will know ok?" I say

"I should probably be the one telling you that" she says looking me up and down, I can feel myself blushing, shit. "Whatever I'll clean up and take you upstairs" I say walking away so that she doesn't see how flustered I am. You see she really was spot on, and the way she set her contact name made me feel, some type of way if you know what I mean.

~Time Skip~

By the time we're done cleaning it's really late , thank goodness we don't have school tomorrow. I grad the smallest pair of sweats I have, and a random shirt. "Here, so you don't have to sleep in those clothes" I say handing them to her. She gets them and smiles "thank you". She begins taking her shirt off and it takes me a second to look away, "H-Hey I'm still here you know!" I turn around blushing. I feel a hand on my shoulder, "I don't mind you know" she says, then begins changing. I don't want to be disrespectful so I didn't turn the whole time. "Okay, I'm dressed" I turn around and, Gahh Dayumm, She looks gorgeous, and even sexier than before in my clothes.

Now I see why everyone stares at school, but I kinda don't want others looking at her like that. A-Am I being possessive right now? What is wrong with me? I barely know her. I'll ask Kuroo for some advice tomorrow, she did say she likes me. Maybe I can ask her on a date? Oh geez i'm blushing just thinking about holding her hand while we walk.

"Ok you take the bed" I tell her, "what about you?" she asks immediately. "I'll sleep on the floor" I begin to get a blanket from the closet when she snatches them away. "Nonsense! Sleep on the bed, I'm the one bothering you" She says and begins to put them on the floor. "So what's that for?" I ask pointing to the floor, "you really are dense huh?" She says looking back at me, "for me dummy" she smiles.

"Absolutely not" I say, "we can both sleep on the bed, It's a little small but we fit" I say grabbing the blanket and folding it back up.

"Okay, but I move a lot, sorry in advance" she says climbing into my bed, she holds the blanket up waiting for me, "Come here" She says . I do as I'm told and climb on the bed, she immediately brings me close to her and hugs my waist with her head on my chest. "Is this okay for you?" She asks me

"Of course it is", please I'm blushing so hard right now, thank the stars that the lights are off. 

Y/N's POV

His heart is beating so fast, I bet he's blushing so hard. I'll save him the embarrassment and pretend I can't.

A/N: Hey guys, I hope you guys are enjoying this so far. I'll speed things up in the next two chapters. Like the reader getting to know his friends and both of them learning about each other.
