The Sound Of Silence (Fushiguro x Reader)

School of clowns

Feets crossed together on the dashboard, I think about how the past years went. There's honestly not much to remember about, since everything acted out like a cycle. I woke up, ate, showered, and went to sleep... kind of. And I honestly prefer to forget about all of this, and plan out my future. I'm very late on that. I've wasted 2 years in that asylum, and to be honest for a while, I did think that I might loose my mind in there. Fortunately, I managed to get out of there because of my ''good behavior''.

If Toge wouldn't have had raised me well, maybe I would have tried to slit a throat or two. People were so mean towards me, it got annoying. It's not that I was not used to it, quite the contrary, I was hated by everyone for my whole childhood. By my own family! The only person who barely respected me was my brother. I mean, obviously...

Yn- ''Where are we going?''

I mimic with hand signs.

Toge- ''School. Exorcism school.''

Without taking his eyes off the road, he quickly types on his phone's keyboard. You take a look at it and huff as your head moves towards the window on your left.

Yn- ''Very funny.''

He doesn't look at you, or establish any contact with you. Instead, he leaves his phone into your hands and keeps driving.

Yn- ''Oh, are you serious?''

I rapidly glance at him, eyes wide open. School? Now?? I haven't left that place for 10 minutes and I'm already boarding a school?? Hell no! Let me go back with Jeremy!

He pats your head gently and chuckles at your reaction, he knew you defenitely would never accept going somewhere for EDUCATION. But luckily for you, he knows that the school you are going to attend is the same as his, and that fighting is also included on a daily basis. Which is one of the things you enjoy the most, chaos.

Toge- You'll see, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

I can easily notice how his face changes when he smiles, first, his left eyebrow seems to be a little higher than the right one, afterwards his eyes gets smaller like most normal humans, and finally his cheeks somehow get bigger. I've noticed this in the past few years of my existence, - excluding the last two - and I'm quite suprised I remembered these small details even if I didn't see him for a while now.

But anyway, he's smiling, so he surely found a good school for me, or else his stone-colded face wouldn't have changed one bit. I missed him.

You look around the window, and quickly realize how most of Tokyo's buildings suddenly became huge trees and that the paved streets were transformed into grass. Toge lowers the window to your side for you, since he remembered how much you liked it. He may not know many things about you, since you are both unable to speak to eachother, but he remembers clearly every little things about you that he gradually learned when you spent some time together.

It may not be much for some people, but for you, that he takes the time to know you better gives you more happiness than anyone could ever give you.

Toge- We're here.

He gets the keys of the car and shoves them in his pockets. I stare at our similar uniform, and then concentrate more on the environnement around us. I open the car's door and take a step outside. The wind refreshes my skin as my hair floats in harmony. I feel a hand reaching out for my chin, and raises it. I look down, to see Toge inspecting my neck.

Toge- Your marks.

A thin black line can be found on your neck, separating into other lines, forming what looks like a lightning bolt. But it is actually supposed to represent the crust of the earth collapsing under itself because of tectonic plates. Three of the many sharp ends of that mark are connected to your bottom lip. Though they are very small lines, so they are often mistaken as simple birthmarks.
