You're My Enemy...Right? [Scaramouche x FEM! Reader]

~Technically a New Side?~ Chapter 28

Y/n's POV

My body shifted onto its side, stomach, and back, until I finally got the motivation to get out of bed. I hated waking up early like this... But it was a love hate relationship. I could get things done. I had a nice sleep knowing that Scara was growing potentially closer with me. Everything about him got so familiar to me. It's like it'd be impossible to hate him with how I feel around him.

I wouldn't mind if he considered me as a friend. I would like that.

My body brought me to get ready for school, well, university, but it's easier to call it school. It took me a small bit to get ready but it was simple. It was what I did every morning.

After I got done, I contemplated sending Scara a text message. I opened our chat, about to type something... before I saw a small three dots... Was he... Typing?! Was Scara gonna send me a text message?! I waited for a bit before it went away. I sighed in disappointment, before putting my phone away. I walked to school, not too scared that it was early. It wasn't like Scara would bother me... I didn't think, at least.

The weather was good out, and I was having an actually decent morning. I was surprised when I didn't see Scara at the school, but that was whatever. It's not like I came here early just to see him... Haha... No... In an odd way, the school seemed refreshing since there wasn't so much yelling and crowds. It was empty. In a way of speaking, it could also be a lonely feeling, but I didn't think too much of that. Today was a good day, and I didn't want to ruin that with gloomy thoughts.

Finally, after some waiting, I saw Lola. She was walking with... Tartaglia? Was that his name? I shrugged, and walked up to her. Tartaglia soon walked away from Lola, since he was in a different department. Lola ran in my direction in an enthusiastic way, and I didn't mind it. We hugged, and started walking together as usual. It felt like we were inseparable. I liked this feeling.

More people started arriving, including Scara. My eyes instantly met with Scara's. The noisy crowds were back, sadly. Lola and I were talking, so it'd be rude to come up to Scara and leave Lola. I just smiled and waved silently at him, while listening to Lola's tangent. It was something about makeup sales tomorrow or something. Scara saw and his eyes widened slightly, before he looked away. People started walking in between us, blocking the sight of Scara for a bit. Once the people passed, I saw that he was rubbing the back of his neck, looking away from me. His gaze was set on the ground. He was now walking ahead of us. I wondered if that made him feel uncomfortable... Quickly, I snapped myself out of that mindset. I didn't want to ruin a perfectly decent day.

Me and Lola went to class. The classroom reaked of lemon cleaning supplies, or lavender? It reminded me of the janitor's closet. That was a funny thought. That was a bit ago. It definitely represented improvement when compared to current times. It was a nice thought, actually. A nice memory, I would like to say.

(Imma skip through the majority of the school day, mainly because I want to get to a certain part.)

Over and over again... I saw Scara be... Very VERY odd. It scared me almost. One time, Scara almost approached me, before he just stopped and walked away. I was alone then. I was waiting for Lola. Another time, he sat right behind me in class, yet avoided me, almost. What was happening..? It wasn't fully on avoiding. It was like a skittish cat that had to sniff your hand before you pet it, but even after it sniffs you it could be cautious. I hadn't really seen Scara like this. It was new... The bakery was closed for today, due to sanitary testing. Along with chemical testing. It was a new location, after all. It was odd that they didn't do it at first. The black kitten is also fine. Scara took the kitten for a bit to his dorm. He told me over text last night that he went back to the bakery.

I suppose that meant that I didn't have work today... That was okay.

It's all okay.

Soon, school came to an end, and I walked back to my dorm. Scara was nowhere to be seen. I was hoping to at least run into him once when leaving, but it was like he vanished. I was slightly dissapointed again. Was he annoyed from me..? Did I do something wr- No. No, no, no, no, I should stop thinking like this. It doesn't change anything either way. My dorm had a hard pang of gloomy, even though I was... Really trying to be joyful. The truth is that I was scared and paranoid. Nervous, per say. I felt bored, which didn't help. Today was good, but unusual. It was ordinary. I wanted something to make me feel different, like when I was working with Scaramouche... But would that be different now from the way that Scara was acting today?

My body lay on the bed, almost like limp. My body felt like it was being sucked into a sleep. I did say that I was bored, afterall. I might as well go to slee- I jumped upon hearing my phone go off out of nowhere. Who could be calling..? My body escaped from the limp trap, called sleepiness, to grab my phone on the bedside table. I instantly jolted to sit up when I saw who was calling. I instantly answered. "Hello?" My voice had a hint of drowsiness.

"I'm... Outsiddeee.. your dorm...~", a very slurred voice said.

What?
