Chapter 24: Gruesome Grudges

The next day

(Y/N): "Let go of me."

Esdeath: "No."

(Y/N): "Yes. And stop stroking my hair. I'm not your pet."

You're probably wondering what's happening. Allow me to explain.

(Y/N) had much difficulty trying to fall asleep the night prior due to a combination of paranoia and other psychological problems he's gained over the course of the last few months specifically. So, in an attempt to clear his head, he snaked his way out of Esdeath's cold yet warm and sleepy embrace and headed out to get some needed air.

Turns out Esdeath became grumpy and dearly missed her well over six-foot-tall body pillow that gives her comfort and security at night. So when she found out her pillow had escaped in the middle of the night, she hunted him down and dragged him back to bed pronto upon listening to his reason as to why he snuck out in the first place.

It is now late in the morning and Esdeath still refuses to let (Y/N) move a single inch and has her eyes on him constantly. To make matters worse for (Y/N), she at some point began to treat him like a pet and stroke his hair with maliciously pure and wholesome intentions.

(Y/N) however, was not happy with this treatment in the slightest and protested as much as he could. He attempted to be polite in this situation which got him absolutely nowhere. He tried prying himself out of her grip so many times already that he stopped giving a fuck about anything else but freeing himself from this icy, but warm prison. How that makes any sense is still beyond me.

What made matters worse was that neither Wave nor Kurome even TRIED helping him get out of this pickle, which made him despise them in the current moment as they both laughed at him while he was helpless.

What made this even worse was that (Y/N) was slowly growing a liking to this treatment. He even found himself leaning into Esdeath's hands(which were quite soft in his opinion) a few times and closing his eyes to enjoy the contact.

So there (Y/N) sat, doing his best Grumpy Cat impression with Esdeath's legs wrapped around his waist and his head resting in Esdeath's generously large bosom while she treated him like a common house cat and hummed softly.

(Y/N): "This is so embarrassing... Esdeath, please let me go."

Esdeath: "No."

In response to this, (Y/N) stomped his feet, crossed his arms, and scowled. This only got a laugh out of everyone in the room as Esdeath just continued her previous actions.

(Y/N): "You better hope God blesses you all when I get out of this."

Esdeath: "And you're going to do what?"

(Y/N): "Let me go and you'll find out."

Esdeath: "No."

(Y/N): "Can you say anything but no when I ask you to let me go?!"

Esdeath: "No."

(Y/N): *Sigh* "Of course. Why did I even try?"

Esdeath: "There, there, (Y/N). It's okay."

(Y/N): "Fuck you."

Esdeath: *Gasp* "Oh my. I didn't know you wanted to do that with me. If only you had told me sooner..."

(Y/N): "Wha?!- I didn't mean it like that and you know it!"

Run: "Am I interrupting something?"

The air grew silent almost instantly. The chaos would cease for the time being.

(Y/N): "Run. Help me. Please."
