Unrequited

Ch. 19 - Trapped

"Where might you have been?" Naoya asked, cocky as ever despite knowing he couldn't touch you if you didn't want him to.

"Out," you answered shortly as if he would accept such an answer.

He stood from his chair and stared you down. You matched his intensity upon being caught. He attempted to grab you by the arm just to see if you were using infinity, which, of course, you were.

"Just as I thought," he lightly snickered, "get your phone out and hand it over." You continued to stare at him. "I'm not stupid, Y/N. I'm not going to try and grab you. I know the power of limitless, hence why there is a curtain around the estate to keep you in upon your arrival."

"Dick," you muttered under your breath, having no choice but to hand over the device.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever," he yanked it from you. "When you decide to let me touch you again, you can have this back." He slid it into his pocket and went for the door. Later in the night, one of the servants came by for your laptop - eliminating any sort of unregulated contact to the outside world.

How petty, you thought, suddenly feeling lost without your phone. You suddenly had to find other ways to keep yourself busy now trapped at the Zenin estate.

On another note, with nothing better to do you allowed yourself to reminisce your night with Kento - suddenly remembering to take one of the Plan B pills you had stashed away. You hesitated before finally popping one in your mouth, you couldn't do that to Kento. And the thought of parenthood terrified you.

Each day after that Naoya would try to touch you and each time you'd refuse. You enjoyed not having to be in his chamber every night, simply having peaceful nights to yourself in a book or watching something on television. During the day you would also spend time training out in the main courtyard. You were determined to make your power your own just like your brother had with Hollow Purple. With the power to control space, there were a few options you could think of - how to do them was the main challenge.
This went on for quite a few weeks, or at least what felt like only a few weeks to you. You could only hope Kento didn't suddenly feel abandoned.

"Y/N-san?" One of the servants politely knocked on the door.

"Come in!" You answered eagerly, willing for any sort of conversation that wasn't Naoya.

"Call for you, from your brother," the servant held the phone out to you, a landline and not your cell.

"Thank you!" You urgently grabbed the phone, not having heard from him since the incident.
"Satoru?" You asked as the servant excused themselves, your conversation likely being monitored.

"Hey, Y/N! Been a minute!" He sounded like his jolly self. "You aren't answering your phone!"

"Hey..." you answered back, suspicious of his happy behavior.

"Why haven't you called? We miss you!" He whined like a child.

"We?" You chuckled.

"Megumi asks about you sometimes...you know he's started at the school finally!"

"It's been that long?" You facepalmed. "Naoya's had me trapped here for months I guess." You didn't care enough to watch your phrasing. He was already at the maximum he could do to you.

"Trapped?" Satoru questioned.

"I left for the...incident...without permission. He's had a curtain cast for me ever since. Took my phone and laptop, too."

"Ew," he snorted, "want me to come get you? Or at least break the curtain?"

"That would be nice," you sighed, "but don't get yourself into trouble. Have you heard from Nanami?"
