The Chains that Bind (Highschool DxD x Ghost Rider Reader)

Chapter 21

(F/N) was completely asleep in class. His head resting on his arms and his torso slowly rising and falling with his steady breathing. His arms shielded his eyes from the classroom light, which kept it from waking him up.

But it wouldn't be the light that would wake him up. A ruler was slapped hard on his desk, snapping him from his sleeping state and waking him up, a jolt of adrenaline coursed his veins in a matter of seconds upon hearing the loud crack! Sound. Everyone around him laughed, looking at his sleepy expression slowly disappearing.

"Mr. (L/N)," Ms. Takashiro said as she looked down at him with a stern gaze, "didn't get enough sleep last night, did you?" He rubbed the crust out of his eyes and sat straight. "I won't tolerate you sleeping in class.

"Sorry, Ms. Takashiro," (F/N) replied as he adjusted himself, but that only made him uncomfortable and wanted to rest his head on the desk again.

"It'll be detention if I catch you sleeping again," she warned, before turning around and walking back to the front of the classroom.

God, I wish someone else would take control while I sleep, (F/N) thought to himself as he basically used his fingers to keep his eyes open.

Sorry, I'm not exactly like the Egyptian Moon God, the Rider replied. (F/N) mentally groaned to himself.

Over at Kuou Academy, Asia sat at her desk. Moments had passed after (F/N) was woken up during class, and she sat there lost in thought. When she had woken up, and saw (F/N) was home, she was completely worried about what had happened. She didn't see his book bag he went out to get, she studied his appearance closely for any signs of a scuffle, but didn't find any; either because she was too busy trying to heal him or he was doing his best to hide it from her. She had trouble sleeping, keeping an eye on the window for the flashing lights of the cops, coming to tell her that her brother's body was found. She wanted to know what was going on with him, why he was different than before. What she did know was that it started after he came by the ORC.

"Asia?" Issei called out, standing next to her desk. Asia snapped from her thoughts and quickly looked over towards the perverted boy, seeing that he was looking at her. "Come on, it's time for lunch."

"Huh?" She asked herself, before looking over at the clock, confirming to her that it was, indeed, time for lunch. "Ah, that's right," she said before she turned to the opposite side and pulled out a lunch box. She then let out a cute, small yawn before standing up to walk with Issei.

"Did (F/N) infect you with sleepiness?" Issei asked.

"Uh-huh," Asia replied, as she and Issei made their way towards the ORC for their lunch. "He's kept me up late. I couldn't get a wink of sleep." Issei's mind instantly went to something more perverted, as his imagination made him think of (F/N) sleeping with Asia with certain "activities", but he quickly disciplined himself and reminded himself that it was because he left into the night.

"Asia, you should probably think about what you say first, before you say anything weird," he said, holding his finger up to her. Asia just looked up at him confused, her brain too tired to really analyze what he was saying.

When they got to the ORC, they could see the other members already dining on their food, with Akeno giving them a nice cup of tea for them.

"Yo! We're here!" Issei said as he took a seat next to Koneko, which led Koneko to scoot further away from him.

"Nice of you to join us," Rias said, before she noticed Asia's tired expression. She tilted her head. "Asia, are you okay?" She asked.

"I'm okay," Asia replied, yawning again and taking a seat between Issei and Koneko, opening her lunch.
