Chapter 2: The Spelldrive★ (Re-Edited)

"Y/n!!! Y/n!!!! Where are you?"

"What happened?? Are you kids alright?"

"Our— our friend! He's still under there!"

Footsteps...

Y/n wondered how long it had been. 

If the authorities would find him. 

If they'd care.

"There's another kid in the rubble!!"

More footsteps, farther... closer... farther... closer... They seemed to come, so close, then fade away. Was this all just one last big fuck you from the universe? Was this just one more example of how little he meant?

Well, at least, if he were dead, he wouldn't have to worry about upsetting his mother more...

Maybe she'd even forgive him.

Y/n awoke to something soft brushing against his hand. He looked around to see none other than his two upperclassmen sitting at his bedside; both fast asleep. 

Leona was sleeping in the empty bed next to his, and Ruggie was asleep in a chair, his head resting on y/n's hand. 

He gently removed his hand from under the elders head and began to softly pet the hyena boy's hair. 

Ruggie sleepily nestled into his touch. His usually teaseing upperclassmen was now like his cat, who always cuddled next to him in his bed. He smiled at this comparison.

He wondered if Ruggie would get angry if he touched his ears; they flicked in the direction of his hand each-time he pasted them. Should he?

He touched the fluffy ear with two fingers brushing against the inside of the hyena's ear, He rubbed the soft fur in-between his pointer and thumb.

"Am I interrupting something?" His voice made him jump. A man with cat ears came from a bed next to him. 

"Che'nya-Chan?" Che'nya smiled. 

"How are ya feeling?" The cat boy asked, pulling a chair next to Y/n's bed. 

He smiled. "I'm good. My head still hurts a little, but overall; good..."Che'nya smiled. "Wanna... lay... down?" He asked a little unsure of the words coming out of his own mouth.

He moved over, Ruggie groaned but didn't wake up. Cye'nya nearly jumped onto the younger man's bed; he cuddled up to him. Ruggie's head made its way onto the younger boy's chest. Che'nya purred on his other side as he drifted to sleep.

~.~

Two voices yelling awoke Y/n, he opened his eyes. Che'nya noticed he was awake and smiled. "Alright! Well, it was nice to meet you, but I gotta bounce!" He disappeared, y/n felt Che'nya ruffle his hair before he walked out. 

"You know that guy?" Leona demanded, and y/n shrunk down into the mattress. 

"Maybe... if— if I did... would— would you be mad?" 

Leona crossed his arms. "Maybe. Should I be?" 

Y/n shook his head and said, "No, no! From what I can tell, he's very kind. I met him before it happened."

Leona shook his head disappointedly and said, "We'll talk about that later." He walked closer to the young man lying in the bed. "How are you feeling?" 

Ruggie had run over to the water filter, and got the boy a glass. "Fine, just a little disgruntled." He sipped the water. 

"Ah, L/n-kun, you're awake. How are you feeling?" The nurse asked, walking into the office and setting down her clipboard on her desk.
