Beep! Beep! Beep! Bee-click

"...oh god...my head hurts..."

I placed my hand on my head, and slowly got out of bed...

"What...happened...?"

From what I can remember, I was in this...abyss. There was also...me? But...not me at the same time...they told me that I was insane, and that I enjoyed hurting people...but then we ended up working things out, and now...he's not there anymore.

I...I'm cured! I don't have to deal with that voice anymore! This is great!

But...why do I feel...different? My body feels...lighter, and it feels stronger as well...

"Oh well...time for school."

I got up from bed, and began to get ready for school.

~~timeskip~~

As per usual, Mukuro, Junko, and I were now walking towards school...but then, Mukuro got closer to me, and hugged my arm, keeping it close to her.

"Hm? What's up, Mukkie?"

Mukuro: "oh, it's nothing...I just wanted to try being more...lovey-dovey today."

I smiled, and placed my other hand on her hair.

"Alright...I won't complain."

Mukuro: "by the way, Y/N..."

"Hm?"

Mukuro: "do you notice anything...different...about me?"

"What do you mean?"

Mukuro: "like...do you see anything different about my appearance?"

I stopped walking, and Junko stood beside me.

Junko: "think REAL hard, Y/N..."

"Hm..."

I stared at Mukuro for a couple of seconds...

"Your face looks...different."

And then...it hit me.

"...You put makeup on, didn't you?"

Mukuro: "yeah...I thought you'd like it if I wore makeup more often...so I asked my sister if she could help me..."

Junko: "yep! I think I did a pretty good job, if I do say so myself."

"Mukkie..."

I walked closer to her, and cupped her cheeks in my hands.

"You don't have to put on makeup for me to think you're pretty...you're beautiful enough as is..."

Mukuro: "...stop it, you're going to make me cry..."

"Why?"

Mukuro: "it's cause you're just so sweet to me, Y/N...you make me feel special...and thanks to that, it makes me feel all tingly inside...and I feel my heart skip a beat when our eyes meet...and just...sigh...look, what I'm trying to say is that you make me feel loved...and considering how I used to be before I met you, it's made quite the impact on me...so...don't stop being that way, Y/N...don't stop being you."

I smiled, and planted a gentle kiss on her forehead.

"I'm glad I make you feel that way, Mukkie...and Jun?"

Junko: "hm?"

"You don't have to put on makeup for me to think you're pretty either. You're both beautiful, with or without makeup."
