Violet POV:

I felt a sense of nerves when I left Endeavor in the kitchen, meeting everyone in the living room upon Shouto's arrival.

Because this is the reason I came, after all. To find out what Shouto knows. It could determine my future-and, even more so,Touya's future, depending on what he tells me...

Shouto was already crowded by his two siblings and his mother when I walked into the main room. Already, I could tell it wouldn't be so easy to get him alone and interrogate him.

I stood in the corner of the room as he hugged his mother and talked with her, not wanting to intrude on their moment.

As Fuyumi said, she only had two hours of free time a week, and she's getting better.

I only wonder how Touya's reappearance would even affect her. I can't imagine that would go well...

Giving his mother one more hug, Shouto's eyes wandered to my presence in the corner of the room, causing my heart to jump with stress.

Ohhh, here we go!

I shifted back and forth on my feet stiffly and gave him a little wave, watching him slowly release his mother and look at me.

Sensing his attention, everyone else directed their gazes to me, making me fumble enough to choke on my spit and hack slightly.

Typical Violet Sasaki stuff. Nothing new.

"Oh. Violet's here." Shouto commented casually. "I wasn't sure she'd be coming."

His voice is too naturally monotone for me to be able to read his mood...

Deciding to play things with as much innocence as I could muster, I smiled and walked over to him, opening my arms wide for a hug.

"Of course I came. How could I not when you sent me such a nice message?" I said, wrapping my arms around his stiff body.

In typical Shouto fashion, he didn't reciprocate the hug with his arms, but rather awkwardly hovered his head closer to mine until I was done.

"Did you bake anything?" He asked a little quieter, looking towards my hands to see they were empty.

Shouto's always been the only one who loves my cooking!

With a chuckle of apology, I held up my empty hands, hearing Fuyumi and Natsuo sigh quietly in relief.

"I didn't. But, if you want, I'd be happy to get in the kitchen and bake some cookies-" I attempted before I was cut off.

"No!" Natsuo panicked, instantly before Fuyumi jumped in.

"A-And have you lift a finger, Violet? No way! Seriously! No way..." She said nervously, brushing past her mother and towards the kitchen table.

Natsuo followed her, and the two checked the table setting and chatted with Rei, leaving Shouto and I to our own devices.

It's probably the worst time to bring up his little secret. But, I don't think I'll get another chance.
