Not As Bad !FINISHED! (Zane x Female!Reader : PDH)

Ch. 5 She Completely Got Lost In Her Own Mind

Zane's P.O.V.

"Don't be late!" She gave me a smirk and ran to lunch. Why did I stand there like an idiot? Why did I even stay with her? Whatever, I'm hungry and I can't wait any longer. She said that she was a grandma and baby for Drama Club. I remember those characters. Especially the baby. The baby sounded like PinkieCake as a kid. Now that I think about it, (Y/N) is a good actress.

*Grumble*

Need to get my lunch. As I got near my locker I saw (Y/N) go into the library. Is that where she goes to during lunch? Strange, but I don't care. I need to get to my small, isolated table in the corner before someone else does.

I actually used to sit in a desk that was just by itself in one of my classes. When I chose to sit there my friend just gave me a confused look. It was gr8😂

It was the end of the day and I was getting my stuff to go home. As I closed my locker someone tapped my shoulder. It was (Y/N).

"Have you been late to anything else today?", she said with an evil grin.

"What do you want? Are you going to tease me about my... action figures?" Her smile went away.

"No. I wanted to see if we can walk together. It's cool if you don't want to. I just wanted to thank you for caring... even though I didn't want you or anyone to talk to me." She wasn't looking at me when she said that.

"Uh, sure. Let's just go walking somewhere where my brothers won't see us. They might tell my mom and that'll be a DISASTER!"

She turned and stared at me for a long time. Has she forgotten what we were talking about? It looks like she completely got lost in her own mind when I said "brother" and "mom".

"Umm... Earth to (Y/N). Are you alright?" She snapped back into reality.

"Oh! Sorry, I was thinking about... something. But, um, sure. I know a short cut." She started walking ahead of me.

We went through a small dirt path surrounded by trees. It was peaceful and abandoned. I didn't even knew it existed. The walk was getting awkward. I turned to look at her. She quickly turned her head the other way. Was she looking at me?

(Y/N) P.O.V.

We were walking for a while now. I was trying to look for my house past the trees and Zane's head. I looked the other way to see if someone was following us. I saw Zane look at me as I turned to check. I stopped and we just kind of stared at each other.

"My house is near here." I said.

"Okay, but how do we get back to the road?"

"Just follow me." We took a right and pushed ourselves past the crowded, skinny birch trees. We reached my backyard and I jumped over my fence with a one-handed jump. Zane stopped. He was staring at my house then at me.

"It's okay. This is my house and no one's home." It hurts to say that. He just nodded and climbed over.

"But wouldn't your parents still get mad?"

"... I d-don't have parents."

He was quiet and looked a bit surprised. He followed me inside then spoke again.

"Your kidding, right?"

"Nope. I live by myself. Want some water?" I said, trying to change the subject. He stared at me with his eyes wide open...erm, eye.

"BY YOURSELF?! You wake yourself up in the morning, do the chores, cook food, pay bills and everything?!"

"Yup. So do you want water or are you going to leave?" He was still really shocked.

"So you're an orphan? How do you survive?"

"I have my ways of living. Just don't tell anyone without my permission. If word gets around I'll get sent to an orphanage and I'll have to answer so many questions. Questions that I'm not allowed to say or can't explain."

"And why should I listen to you?"

"Because I know you won't tell anyone."

"And how are you so sure about that?"

"I know about your little pony obsession, remember?" I said that in my PinkieCake voice just to tease him a bit more.

"Okay, okay. My lips are shut if yours are." I nodded.

"I'm leaving now," he continued, "see you tomorrow, I guess." He showed himself out.

I've heard rumors about a Zane Ro'Meave never talking to anyone and always being really rude, even to his own family. He didn't seem like that to me. But still, how dare he be rude to his family! He should appreciate them! Some people have a horrible family or none at all.... family.

I went up to my room and knelt down to pray to my little shrine on a separate table. It was a shrine of my mom and big sister.

My mom died in a fire rioters made. She sacrificed her life to save my sister and me. My sister gave up her life for a friend of hers. Ever since then I lived by myself for so many years.

The table with the shrine is covered with candles, flowers (mostly roses), and a picture of each and one with all three of us.

I called my cousin, but since he's so cool and the only person who still cares about me, we treat each other like siblings. I rung him up and wait for him to pick up. Surprisingly, he answered almost immediately.

"Sup Aaron, how's COLLEG?"

"You have too many fandoms. Anywho, it's been going good. How about you and High school? This is your junior year now."

"Yup, but it has been the same as last year. Just being a social outcast. It hasn't been the same after you left."

"Oh, well I wish I was still there. But how is Drama Club? I know that'll get you back in the mood."

"Heh... well, you see, things are a bit different this time..."

|ANOTHER smol TIME SKEEEP!
（╯°□°）╯︵ ( ͜。 ͡ʖ ͜。) |

I've talked with Aaron for about an hour. He said that he needed to go and he wanted me to say hi to Aphmau for him. Then I hung up and got everything ready for tomorrow. I watched a bit of My Little Horsies on Netflix. After meeting Zane, I kind of want to start watching it again... I fell asleep 5 episodes later.

Soo... I bet you may have a bunch of questions, but don't worry my fellow smol beans! I SHALL answer all questions... eventually (´･ω･')
