This is a New feeling... (Kazuscara modern au, idk how to make titles)

Chapter 5: Teasing

Third person

"Kazu, you're back from school." Ninguang searched for something in the fridge. "Yeah, what are you doing?" Kazuha put his backpack on the floor. (Ninguang seems to have gotten home earlier than usual) "I'm trying to find something to eat for dinner, but I think I have to make some." Ninguang sighed. "You're here earlier than usual." Kazuha replied. "Beidou and me go to work right after you go to school." Ninguang shut the fridge. "Ok, can I help you make dinner? I didn't get any homework for the first day." Kazuha said. "Sure." Ninguang opened a cabinet and took out a bag of rice, "Can you make the rice? I'll start making some curry." "Ok, where is Beidou?" Kazuha asked. "I'm right here, Kazu!" Beidou came into the kitchen and sat down at the counter, "Did you meet anyone new today?" "Yes." Kazuha got the rice cooker from a cabinet. "Who?" Beidou got excited. "I don't know how to describe him, he has indigo hair, he's shorter than me, he looks-" Kazuha was cut off by Beidou. "What's his name and personality?" Beidou smiled. "His name is Scaramouche, he's rude, intimidating, and something about him makes me wanna be friends with him." Kazuha smiled. (He's also cute, but Beidou gonna keep teasing me if I said that.) "What else? I can tell that you're hiding something." Beidou pointed out.

"Nothing!" Kazuha nervously laughed. "Just tell me!" Beidou crossed her arms. "He's... A little... Bit... Cute?" Kazuha lowered his voice. "Why do you not seem sure?" Beidou gasped "Do you have a crush?!" "What!? No! I'm not gay!" Kazuha yelled. "You probably like him and don't know it!" Beidou laughed. "No, I don't! He's not my type!" Kazuha responded. "So you would consider dating a boy..." Beidou smiled. "Beidou, stop teasing Kazu, he just came back from school." Ninguang scolded. "Fine... But, Kazu, you need to make a move." Beidou said. "But I only want to be his friend, nothing else!" Kazuha sighed. "Enough Beidou, Kazu needs to help me make dinner now." Ninguang grabbed Beidou's hand and brought her to the couch, then she went back to the kitchen. (I think Beidou might be right though. Kazuha was happy when he was talking about Scaramouche and Kazuha even said that he wants to become friends with him.) Kazuha started to soak the rice while Ninguang made the curry.

After about 3 hours

"Mom, do you think that I like Scaramouche?" Kazuha asked. "I don't what to tell you, I think it matters on what you think. And, if you don't think you like him, make sure that you don't let Beidou push you into dating him." Ninguang replied. "Ok." Kazuha smiled. "Beidou, dinner is ready." Ninguang went over to the living room. "I'm finally aloud to go in the kitchen?" Beidou crossed her arms. "You were not aloud in the kitchen earlier because you kept teasing Kazu." Ninguang glared. "Sorry... But he totally likes-" Ninguang cut off Beidou. "I know he likes Scaramouche, but you should say sorry to Kazu not me." Ninguang said. "How do you know that he likes Scaramouche?!" Beidou gasped. "Kazu's happy when talking about Scaramouche. Now, come on we need to eat." Ninguang brought Beidou to the kitchen. "Hey, Kazu what's for dinner?" Beidou sat down at the table. "Rice and curry." Kazuha replied. "You could've asked me but alright." Ninguang shrugged. "She has 2 different personalities..." Beidou whispered is Kazuha's ear. "Ninguang, Beidou said that you-" Kazuha's mouth was covered by Beidou's hand. "That I what?" Ninguang raised an eyebrow. Kazuha chuckled.

The dining room is in the kitchen if that makes more sense to you guys.

After dinner

Kazuha went upstairs to his room and jumped onto his bed. (Beidou has been teasing me ever since I got home... Why can't I just keep these things to myself?) Kazuha sighed and open the drawer filled with used cigarettes. (How am I going to throw these away before Ninguang and Beidou find out... I can't throw them away in a trash can, otherwise they will see it... Do I like Scara? Wait, I'm not gay! Does he like me though? I need to stop thinking about this...) Kazuha sighed and opened a different drawer and stared at a pack of cigarettes. He grabbed them, went to his balcony, lit one, and started smoking. (I should stop smoking... If I stay up late, everyone's gonna lecture me again. But it's the only thing that can keep my mind off things when I overthink. I'm not even 18 yet so I can't drink.) Kazuha puffed out some smoke and coughed. (I only started smoking 1 or 2 days ago, so I should be careful and not start an addiction.) After 5 minutes, Kazuha stared at the driveway for a bit then threw the cigarette off the balcony. He went inside to take a shower, before going to bed.

Btw, in the last chapter, Scaramouche used Google maps to get home, idk if I needed to say that.

"Kuni! Why are you so late? It shouldn't take that long to come back from school." Miko seemed worried. "It's not like it matters, Miko." Scaramouche took off his shoes then walked inside. "Kuni, didn't I tell you to be nice to Miko?" Ei glared. "Whatever, when is dinner?" Scaramouche rolled his eyes. "Maybe in 30 minutes, we didn't wanna make it until you came back from school." Miko smiled. "Ok, I'm gonna go to my room." Scaramouche went upstairs to his room to find Mocha sleeping on his bed. (Mocha seems to like my new room, I like it too but I just feel like it's missing something...) Scaramouche laid down on his bed, hugged Mocha gently, and stared at the ceiling. (My old room felt more comfortable, while this room feels a little boring and shitty.) He looked around his room wondering why it doesn't feel comfortable. (I have my gaming PC, a TV, some posters, a large bed, and Mocha... But why doesn't it feel comfortable?) Scaramouche started to stare at an empty wall. (Why isn't there anything there?)

After 20 minutes

Nahida knocked on Scaramouche's door. "Come in." Scaramouche looked at the door then back at the wall. "Kuni, dinner is ready." Nahida walked in to the room, "Why are you staring at that wall?" "It feels like something is supposed to be there." Scaramouche replied. "Well, Miko was planning to put some posters there but I told her to put something else instead." Nahida sat on the bed. "Why isn't anything there anything there yet?" Scaramouche was still staring. "It's a surprise! I'm not good with surprises but I think you will like it." Nahida was excited. "Alright, you said dinner is ready?" Scaramouche looked over to Nahida. "Yes, Miko made some rice and soup." Nahida responded. "Ok." Scaramouche went downstairs with Nahida for dinner. "Kuni, do you want curry or soup with your rice?" Miko asked. "I don't care what you give me." Scaramouche sat at the dinner table to eat. "Then I'll give you a bit of both." Miko smiled. She served Scaramouche some soup, curry, and rice. "Tell me if you like it, then I can make it again." She said. "Ok." Scaramouche ate some of the food, "It's decent I guess." "Ok!" Miko was happy.

"It's seems that you're getting along with Miko better." Ei came into the kitchen. "I guess you could say that." Scaramouche crossed his arms. "How was your first day?" Ei asked. "It was alright, I guess. Scaramouche shrugged. "You guess?" Ei tilted her head. "There was an annoying boy who kept asking me fucking questions." Scaramouche frowned. "Language! And what do you mean, he kept asking questions?" Ei got curious. "He was asking questions during homeroom and 2nd period nonstop. They were mostly about weird shit." Scaramouche rolled his eyes. "Language! You shouldn't be swearing too many times!" Ei glared. "I think it's fine Ei, he's gonna say it regardless." Nahida put her hands on her hips. "Kuni, he might like you." Miko snickered. "Why would that idiot like someone like me?" Scaramouche death stared. "I don't know, but he might have a crush on you." Miko giggled. "Kuni, why do you keep death staring people?" Nahida asked. "He normally does when he's annoyed or wants to send a death threat over to someone." Ei replied. "And I thought that I was getting closer to him..." Miko sighed.

(1416 words)

That's a lot of words, idk if the last paragraph was important or not but I thought it was so I put it in. The more I write, the more words I add, there are so many. Also I tried to make this paragraph more focused on Kazuha, but I kinda focused it on Scaramouche a lot too. What do you think of this chapter? Do you like it or do I need to improve something?
