The next morning school was no different for Artemis, he talked to Marie as if nothing had ever happened. He kept his arm a secret, went into school and acted like just 'happy Artemis'
In reality, the entire situation was eating him alive. The day after he sat in Ronin's office at break and cried to the entire 15 minutes. He was convinced he was a villain, against his own will. He never wanted to be a a villain, but you can't really play with genetics. He told Ronin about Marie, he made Ronin promise not to log it as safe guarding or get anyone involved. Ronin reluctantly agreed
Shino had practically wrote in the clouds "Artemis! You are not a bad person!" But he just wasn't convinced.
And the fucking glass, ever since the incident with Marie the sound of glass shattering was absolutely torture for him. He didn't understand why, he forgave Marie, he arm was healing and he was fine. Yet the smell of alcohol and the glass absolutely set him off. Ronin recommended the school counselling sessions for Artemis. Shino saw the counsellor ever since his attempt, Shino saids she's lovely but. Artemis didn't need any therapy.
Shino, RikKu and Artemis all sat in their dorm. Artemis sat on the couch his his arms resting over the arm of the couch and RikKu and Shino were getting dinner ready. Shino decided to cook along with the help of RikKu however knowing dorm 8 nothing goes as planned.
Shino and RikKu were play-fighting quiet roughly, Shino was much taller then RikKu as RikKu was only 150cms and Shino was 183cms. Artemis was giggling, watching to two as RikKu would through spoon-fulls of pasta sauce at Shino and in return he would pick her up and swing her away from him. They both made sure to be careful nobody got hurt, the three were giggling away.
"Oh my god it's in my hair!! I just got a shower!!" Shino gasped as RikKu flicked a spoonful of sauce at Shino and it landed in his hair. "Shino I wouldn't worry about your hair, it looks like you've been swimming in sauce" Artemis giggled, Shino flicked red sauce out of his hair as RikKu giggled
"Ok that's it!" Shino laughed, grabbing RikKu by the waist, he swung her around and threw her into the kitchen counter. Artemis stopped giggling for a second, his mood slightly fell as RikKu stambled herself after hitting the counter with a laugh. It reminded him of the fight he got in with his mum, and how she pushed him into the kitchen counter. The thought ruined his mood slightly but he forced a giggle as they laughed.
RikKu wasn't hurt, if anything she found it hilarious. She pulled herself up and sat on the counter, trying to stand on it to make herself taller then Shino. "What the fuck are you doing" Shino laughed, he was tall enough to stand by the counter so his torso was above it. RikKu stabled herself on-top of the counter by holding onto a cupboard with glass cups and plates it it.
Shino got another spoon and threw a lump of sauce at RikKu, she laughed, turning away and wobbling slightly. She caught her balance on the cupboard, however opened one of the doors with her elbow and hit the cupboard, it shook quick and suddenly stacks of glass plates and cups all quickly fell onto the floor and shattered.
Everyone in the room jumped on the noise. Artemis covered his eyes quickly and squeezed his eyes closed. They room fell slight after the plates had finished hitting the floor. Artemis flickered his eyes open and looked at the mess of shattered plates as his hands were shaky. He couldn't shake all the memories of his fight with Marie, RikKu hitting the counter and now the glass smashing, he could practically feel the pain in his arm again.
Shino glanced over, noticing Artemis's scared reaction and his stomach dropped. "Oh shit i'm so sorry-" RikKu quickly stuttered, covering her mouth. Shino helped her down and made sure to avoid the class "hey it's ok accidents happen! We still have plates left it was only a handful." Shino comforted her as she nodded, quickly grabbing a dustpan and broom to collect the glass.
