Alcohol Spills [BYAKUYA TOGAMI X READER]

28

All eyes on me. All eyes. All eyes on me. All eyes on me. ALL EYES ON ME.

SHIT SHIT SHIT WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?

Say something. Say something or they'll know you're guilty. Say something. Say something goddamnit! SAY SOMETHING {Y/N} SAY SOMETHING.

STOP WATCHING ME. 

I grip at the podium, fear and panic in my eyes while everyone watches the display in silence. I lost. I lost. 

"{Y/N}? Is this true?" asked Hina, with a disappointed but also surprised expression.

"Of course you would know wouldn't you Byakuya? You obviously had her kill Toko for you. Throw her under the bus?" inquired Kyoko.

I feel sick to my stomach. How could he? Why would he? I attempt to speak and yet my chest feels like it swells. closing my vocal cords. I grip the podium harder as it hurts to breathe, panic flooding my mind. Deep, fast-paced breaths escaping my body and tears welling in my mind. I open my mouth again only to be interrupted by my own cries and burying my head on the podium.

"So... you are the one Monokuma warned. And you didn't listen? Clearly he was doing you a favour. Explain yourself {L/N}!" said Kyoko coldly.

My head is weighed down by the fear in my body, my neck too tense and afraid to music. My heart clenches as I fail to speak once again. Byakuya just watches over me in silence.

Kyoko snaps her head to him after a minute of unsuccessful talk from me.

"You. Togami. You have to explain yourself."

Just as Byakuya opens his mouth to speak, Monokuma leaps forward.

"Seeing as Miss Crybaby cannot seem to compose herself, I shall take it upon myself to speak in her honour. And I will tell the full truth. It doesn't matter now anyway, after all, after today you will never have to step foot in this school again. So listen up!"

Monokuma turns to glance at Byakuya and jumps onto my podium where I am left quietly hiccupping as my cries turn to silent tears and sniffles. However, the headache pounds and swirls in my head, causing knots in my stomach and being sick looming over me.

"Miss {L/N} and Mr Togami have been in cahoots since the end of Mondo Owada's trial! Silly miss bartender had let it slip she was the mastermind and in return for Byakuya's silence, she agreed to make sure no harm was to come to him during his time here at school. As for your idea on motive miss Kirigiri, you are right on the money! Our daring mastermind has been bored since the very beginning, ergo ending the games early!"

"Byakuya! Why didn't you say anything earlier!?" cried Aoi

"I've been plotting for this outcome for a while, don't doubt me. I knew what I was doing. And now I am your saviour. So lower your tone in my presence and thank me."

Plotting... for a while? Was everything just a trick? To get close to me? To manipulate me? I refuse to believe it! It can't have all been fake.

"So erm... Monokuma, what's gonna happen now dude?" asked Yasuhiro

"Shall I tell them or do you want to have some part in this final hurrah, {Y/N}?"

I stare forward, wide eyed, tears dried and eyes red. My heart still remains beating in my throat.

"I'll take it that's a no then! Very well. As our lovely blackened was also the mastermind and also caught, that means you can all graduate! All free to walk on outta here! Puhuhu. But don't take too long! A 25 minute countdown will be displayed on every monitor and screen in the school. As the countdown begins, every single door, and I mean EVERY single door to the school will open, including the door to the outside. All surviving students must evacuate the school within those 25 minutes. It should be plenty of time to allow you all to leave. As punishment the illustrious mastermind will remain inside the school, with me! Puhuhu!"
