i reached my arm out beside me, feeling the thin and wrinkled bed sheets in place of where y/n would be.
my eyes opened and i sighed. in her absence, i felt a chill while i tried to rub the sleep out of my eyes. i rolled over onto my back and stared up at my white ceiling.
"she left again," i said to myself. i pulled myself up out of bed and combed through my tangled hair, trying to convince myself that she had a good reason for not saying goodbye before she left. "maybe it was an emergency."
i walked out of my bedroom and towards the kitchen where i was proven wrong.
she was still here, dressed in one of my old button-up shirts with a beige color that i didn't like all that much, but it looked great on her. she stood leaning against the counter with a bowl of cereal in her hands.
she noticed me as soon as i made my way into the kitchen area of my apartment, but she ignored the large grin that i probably wore on my face in relief.
"satoru, this shit," she motioned down to her cereal with a serious look in her eyes, "is fucking amazing."
i laughed at her immediate infatuation with it. she straightened out and stood up, so i walked behind her and wrapped my arms around her waist. i rested my head on her shoulder and we silently watched the colorful cereal swirl around in the bowl.
"good morning," she whispered.
she lifted her hand up to gently run her fingers through my hair like she always did. i kissed her shoulder through the shirt that she wore.
"morning," i yawned out. "sleep well?"
"i guess so." she shrugged. "i had a lot on my mind."
"like what?"
"how happy i was yesterday," she said.
"yeah?" i chuckled. "because of which part; the sex or my terrible cooking? be honest," i joked.
"the food wasn't that bad," she replied. "the sex was a bit better than the food, though."
"only a little bit?" i feigned offence.
"maybe more than a bit."
she turned around and stood up onto the pads of her toes to kiss me. it grew with passion the more that we pressed into each other, and we proceeded to feel each other through the thin clothes that we wore.
"i really like you, y/n," i said.
she bit her lip. "i really like you too."
i pulled her back in for a much faster kiss, and the heat between us grew immensely.
we only found the will to pull apart when a loud knock came from my door. we both turned our heads in suspicion. when we looked back at each other we were both already making our way to the door. i stood in front of her, ready to open the door, and she stood behind me, ready to watch.
this time, i opted for the safer route, and asked a simple "who's there?"
"it's nanami. we need to talk."
my skin crawled at the ominous tone of voice. y/n gripped my shirt worriedly, so i held one of her hands if only to bring her anxiety down. i understood that nanami could be a scary person if you didn't know him well.
