Mother of Pearl: A Floyd Leech x OC Fanfiction [ON HIATUS]

Chapter 31

"Oh, so this is the Ramshackle dorm. This is my first time ever coming inside," Jade looked around the main hallway as we stepped into our dorm, "a nice place indeed."

"Yes, our renovations came out spectacularly," I huffed.

"It's very close to the school as well. This is the perfect place for Mostro Lounge's second location," Jade smiled.

"There are ghosts here to, right? How fun is that~?" Floyd played with his fedora as he looked around.

"You didn't win yet, so don't get too ahead of yourselves," I growled as I went for the stairwell.

"Why did you guys escort us all the way here anyway?" Grim looked up at the towering twins, perplexed.

"Isn't it obvious," I leaned over the railing. "We're being evicted."

"Fnya?!" Grim gasped.

I started to climb up the stairs as I spoke, "Yuu signed this place off as collateral to good-ole Azul. It is not ours."

"Precisely. As a result, this dorm will be impounded during the three-day period," Jade finished.

"What?!" Grim yelled.

"Didn't he take your magic when you offered it as collateral, Grim? Didn't you expect this?!" Yuu asked. "I thought you had understood and that's the reason you were fine with using the dorm!"

"No way..." Grim slumped.

"It will be in your best interest to not fight over the matter," Jade kindly warned.

"We'll give you some time to get what you need," Floyd said.

"If Azul becomes the permanent owner of this dorm, everything in here will be surrendered to him. Please keep that in mind."

"Hehehe, it's okay~. As long as you bring us the photo in three days, we will give everything back to you."

The back and forth of Jade and Floyd made my blood boil. Yuu's demeanor was too calm for my liking too. I wanted to kick them right where it hurt, since that is the only place I could reach. I stormed the rest of the way to my room. I packed what little belongings I had into my school bag. It was mostly spare undergarments and school supplies. It wasn't like I had any sentimental items, but it still stung to leave this place.

"Little Miss are you going to be alright," the deep echo of the pudgy ghost cued me in on their entrance. I looked up to see the one ghost hovering on the other side of the bed.

I sighed, "I won't die, hopefully, but there won't be a calm moment for the next three days."

"Well, we won't make it easy for those louts either, kekeke," the ghost assured.

"Good. Haunt their butts," I said. I grabbed the potion bottle the nurse had given me. Its contents were diminished. I placed it back in the basket I had gotten and threw in my extra wrapping bandages. "Ugh, wearing the bandages for three days without a break is going to be painful."

I slung my bag over my shoulders and held the basket in my hands as I went back to the foyer. I was the first one done. The twins greeted me.

Floyd enthusiastically came up to me, "Hey hey, Leafy Sea Dragon, when can I play with you again?"

Really? REALLY?!! You're kicking me out and you have the GALL to ask me that?!

I tightened my grip on the basket and took a deep breath in and out. I couldn't risk making the situation worse by letting my tongue flip. "I don't know sir. My schedule is filled for the next three days, and I plan to be busy afterwards with school assignments," the use of my "customer service" voice sure came in handy for times like these. Although, I did nothing to hide the loathing on my face.
