yori's pov
Yori wakes up in someone else's arms, confused. This isn't her bed. Or her dorm.
The person she's laying her head on is asleep still, so she tries to be as gentle as she can when maneuvering off of the bed. It does not go great.
Assuming she woke the person up, she looks back at the bed. She finds Kyomi still asleep.
Wait.
Kyomi?
Suddenly, memories of the night before comes flooding back.
Being alone in her room, 40 tabs into a deep dive for an answer she's still not sure of. Going to Kyomi for help. It helping a lot more than she'd like to admit. Falling asleep next to her.
Next to her, not wrapped in her arms with her head on Kyomi's chest. Which means they must have done that unconsciously.
She darts out of the room before Kyomi stirs.
——————
Yori is a lesbian.
It's just a fact now.
One she's come to accept. It only took a little over a week after her talk with Kyomi.
——————
A few days after she figures it out, they're in Kyomi's room, working on a project that the teacher so stupidly paired them together for.
They haven't spoken since that night. And Yori needs to tell her. She's not sure why, it's not Kyomi's business, but she needs to know.
"Kyo?"
Kyomi stops writing and looks up.
"Yeah?"
"Do you...do you um remember the talk we had? Well it helped. A lot."
She pauses, and Kyomi is looking at her with a soft expression.
"I think, no I know, I'm a lesbian. and I just wanted you to know. I don't know wh-"
She's cut off by Kyomi getting up and wrapping her arms around Yori.
"Thank you. For telling me. And, I'm proud of you. Seriously. I know this shit is hard."
Yori only nods.
"And did you call me Kyo?"
Yori's thoughts stop.
She did.
"No."
"Are you lying?"
"If you tell anyone I called you that, I'll kill you," is Yori's only response.
Kyomi only laughs and lets go.
