Together

Chapter 27

HEY HEEEEEEEEEYYY!!!!

Back from the dead with another chapter!

As you're all aware, a lot happened in the last chapter, and not just for our MC. How will this turn out for everyone? Who knows? I certainly don't! 😏 Read on to find out!

FYI: This chapter will mainly be focused on the consequences of last chapters actions. As such, there will be lots and lots of talking and one might consider this a bit of a 'lull' chapter considering all the action the last chapter had. But the race to the ending is a jog, not a sprint.

Also, apologies for this chapter taking so long. You can also expect a more in-depth apology and explanation in the ending author's note. 😅😂

Anyway, enjoy the chapter.

Michiko's Room

Michiko laid on her bed, her legs bent with one resting on the other, and her hands behind her head as she stared at the ceiling. She had a plethora of thoughts on her mind, but one more prevalent than any other:

Her upcoming talk with Y/N. About idiotic rumors and the identical idiots who necessitated the need for a talk in the first place.

In all honesty, it was a talk that she felt didn't need to be had, considering everything that had happened wasn't even her fault to begin with. As per usual, it was once again a matter of her so-called 'friends' attempting to interfere in her love life to further their own stupid fantasy; It was something she had been dealing with ever since she first met Y/N.

The biggest irony of the twins causing this headache of a situation was that in their idiotic attempt to try to get Michiko and Y/N together yet again, Michiko felt that the only the success the twins had was pushing them further apart. And Michiko wasn't exactly on good terms with the twins at the moment because of it.

In spite of all that, however, Michiko still felt responsible nonetheless due to the fact that she had, indeed, heard the rumors about her and Y/N floating around for some time, and yet, failed to quash them before the situation escalated further than it had..

Michiko sighed. She may not have been on good terms with the twins currently, but she's still considered them friends deep down. She knew that she was an idiot for doing so. She knew that any sane person would have cut both of the twins out of their lives permanently after they had experienced even a fraction of the issues and headaches twins had caused her over the years. Sure, she had told them not to talk to her after Y/N had cleaned up their mess. But due to the fact that she had known them literally her entire life, having grown up together since they were preschoolers, she just couldn't find it in her heart to completely kick them to the curb. She was, unfortunately, far too nice and forgiving of a person.

Michiko sat up and looked over to her nightstand, which contained various things, including her phone, which garnered her complete attention. She stared at it for a hard moment, contemplating her next move. She had managed to successfully get a hold of Y/N a couple days prior and got him to agree to set aside some time for them to talk. But since their school had gotten to the camping site, she hadn't heard a word from him since. She had been eagerly waiting for Y/N to text her to set up a time so they could meet up and discuss what happened at school with that stupid rumor (and, as much as she knew they didn't deserve it, apologize on the twins behalf).
