[Old] Never let go, Never Runaway (Oumasai)

Devil Town

He was surprised I actually fell for another boy but he was supportive. We both ate the rest of our dinner.

"I'll clean up," I announced. I was used to cleaning up. I did every night for my parents. I mean If I didn't the house would have looked like a train wreck. No one cleaned besides me.

My uncle shook his head. "Oh no, it's fine. You're probably tired from school. You deserve to rest." He started putting the dishes in the sink.

Oh. Uh. I was never told I deserve anything. Wow.

I walked back to my room.

My phone was on the bed charging. I saw a couple of notifications so I picked up my phone and took a look at it.

Shuichi has added you to a group chat with 4 others.

Shuichi: Hello guys :)

Unknown: Hi!!

Unknown: hi

Unknown: HEY BITCHES WASSUP?

Unkown: Miu chill out...

Unkown: stfu

Shuichi: Guys chill out

Unknown is typing.....

"Huh? Why was I in this group chat? And how do I know Shuichi's number...?" I thought for a moment until I remembered. 

"Oh right, we had to do that project.  I forgot about that." In our 3rd year of middle school, we were forced to do a project about something I forgot but I got paired up with Saihara.

Me: Why was I added?

Shuichi: Because you're coming to the movies with us ofc :D

Unknown: Kokichi is that you?

Unknown: Hi Kokichi!!

Me: hi

I turned off my phone. I didn't really feel like talking.

I lay down on my bed.

I couldn't believe what happened today. First I was having a really bad day because I moved in here but then I had a slightly good day because my hallway crush, Shuichi sat next to me.

Whenever I develop feelings for someone I never mention it. In third grade, I told my best friend at the time about my crush and he told the whole class so I don't need the embarrassment from that again.

I lay on my side. My eyes were fighting to be put down. I tried fighting the tiredness to leave but I just couldn't. Soon enough I fell victim to it and fell asleep.

I woke up. There was still darkness around the room. I'm guessing I just woke up early. I opened my phone to check the time. 2:23 am

"Great." I sighed. It looked like I wasn't gonna get to bed tonight.

To be fair though, I'm pretty sure I went to bed at like 5 pm so I got like 10 hours of sleep.

I stretched a bit before returning to my phone. There were multiple notifications from the new group chat.

I didn't care enough to check it though. I attended to lay back down and go back to sleep.

I knew it probably wouldn't work but I didn't care.

I ended up saying up the rest of the night. I knew I'd probably have dark circles under my eyes for a couple of days after this but I couldn't care less.

I checked the time one last time. 6:32 am

It was finally time to get up.

I got out of my bed and to my dresser. I grabbed my uniform. I put the outfit on and I walked to the bathroom.

I didn't really wanna go to school but did I have a choice? Well, what do u think?

I brushed my thick purple hair. There were tons of knots in it from the previous night. I brushed them out. I didn't feel like taking a shower. I brushed my teeth then I went out to the kitchen.

"Hey, Kokichi." My uncle said. He was sitting at the dining table reading the paper.

I looked at him and waved. I didn't feel like talking to him so I dashed out the door.

A/N: SO SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG AHHHH at the time of writing the first half of this chapter I had a 0% in English, a 2% in science, and a 40% in my elective :0 so I had to worry abt that. I got most of my grades up though so there won't be any more long breaks like that.
