She Makes Me Happier// Oka X Ayano

Chapter 20. Gee, That Didn't Hurt At All

"Ayano! I'm heading over to Mirei's house to watch a movie! See you in an hour and a half! Love you!" Oka shouted from downstairs, a wave of jealousy washing over Ayano as she heard the front door shut.

She rushed down the stairs and peered through a window to see Oka already across the road, knocking on the door.

Once Mirei let her inside, Ayano snuck out of the house and stealthily ran to the house across from her's and hid behind a bush.

She heard a movie playing and looked inside of the window, seeing The Edge of Seventeen playing.

Ayano snuck to the front door and opened the door.

She left it open? That wasn't smart.

She closed the door after quietly sneaking inside and found her way to the main room, hiding in a closet and leaving it open just a bit so she could see what was going on.

"I've seen this movie a million times. You wanna go do something? Maybe go shopping or something?" Mirei suggested.

"But I told Ayano-" Oka wasn't able to finish.

"Oh, come on! You're always talking about her. Ever since I moved here. And I moved here 2 days ago! Just take a break from this 'Ayano' person. Okay?"

"How can I take a break from her, Mirei? She's literally the love of my life. I would die for her and she would do the same for me. I love her. And if that's a problem with you, then maybe you aren't a good friend. A good friend lets you talk about their life. And don't say that you wanna talk about your life too because all you have been doing is cyber bullying people anonymously on social media." Oka shot back.

Ayano smiled. That's my girl.

"'Kay. I get it. I'm sorry. But maybe just a tiny cruise? Maybe share each other's thoughts on our lives?" Mirei suggested.

"I suppose." Oka sighed as Ayano snuck out.

She raced up the stairs of the house and grabbed a recorder from Info-chan's room and connected it to my phone.

I opened Mirei's car door (She seriously doesn't lock anything, huh?) and placed the recorder under the passenger seat and closed the door quietly.

She snuck behind a bush and waited for them to enter the car. Once they were in, Ayano turned on the recorder from her phone and listened in.

O: Just a drive around the neighborhood would be nice. Is that okay with you?

M: That's perfect. So, how did you know I was the cyber bully?

O: The account posts had your word slang.

M: You know me well, huh?

Ayano was following the car stealthily.

O: It's not like I've known you forever or anything.

M: That's not the case at all.

O: I went to Mitsuki's birthday party the other day.

M: How'd her gravestone?

O: Still clean. It's been a while since I watched over it. Maybe I should next week.

M: If you want, I can.

O: Only if it's not too much of a hassle. You don't have to do it if you don't want to.

M: Naw. It's okay. Your sister said that I was her friend and I want to be a good one. Remember she told me that 'any friend of Oka's is a friend of mine'? So you know, Mitsuki and I are practically besties.

O: Practically.

M: Mhmm.

O: So did you date anyone while I was gone?

M: Mhmm. Some dude named Takahashi. He was nice until he had to move. That's about it, though. You?

O: Just Ayano.

M: How long have you been dating.

O: A month or so.

M: What's she like?

O: Ayano is the most perfect girlfriend anyone could ask for. She's loving, caring, protective. People say she's a kuudere but she does have emotions. She's happy all the time when we're cuddling. She's mad at Nemesis and manga when they're both being frustrating. Most importantly, she loves me. There really is nothing about her that you could hate. Her beautiful charcoal hair. Her smile. Her peronality. Everything about her is even more perfect than perfect. She's the best thing that's ever happened to me.

Ayano smiled.

"Glad to here, love."

There was loud CRASH! that triggered Ayano. She started running towards the car, only to find that a drunk driver smashed into them.

Mirei climbed out of the car with only a gash on her forehead that just needed some stitches.

"God dammit! Oka! Are you okay!? You better be!" Mirei shrieked.

Ayano helped find her but found what seemed to be a broken leg. As in broken, I mean bone sticking out of flesh broken.

Ayano unleashed her beautiful, colorful vocabulary as she waited for the police to pick up the phone.

"911, what's your emergency?" The operator's voice finally flooded Ayano's ear drums and explained the situation.

"The accident is right outside of Shisuta. Please hurry." Ayano hung up and paced back and forth.

"She'll be fine, Ayano. She's a lot tougher than she looks." Mirei approached.

"I can clean that for you. If you'd like." Ayano grabbed a first aid kit from the alcoholic's car and waited for an answer, looking at the blood dripping from Mirei's temple to her jawline.

"Up to you. It's not that bad." Mirei said.

Ayano poured the rubbing alcohol on some gauze and started cleaning Mirei's gash.

Mirei grimaced from the pain but managed to stay strong.

Ayano put a band aid on her injury that was slowly healing and looked at the car that was close to smashing Oka.

"I know it wasn't your fault. You don't have to blame yourself." Ayano looked at Mirei's guilty face.

"They might have to give her a fake leg. I know she'd prefer if we don't show any pity. You know how she is." Ayano continued.

"Oka likes to think she's as strong as others. And she is. She'll get through this." Ayano rambled.

"She usually does." Mirei nodded, thinking back to when she escaped her enemy, the one who killed Mitsuki and her mom in cold blood.

The police arrived, along with the ambulence.

Ayano went with Oka to the hospital while Mirei went to Ayano's house to get Nemesis and Info-chan.

"A-Ayano? Is that y-you?" Oka managed.

"Oka, it's okay. It's okay, love. We're getting to the hospital as quick as we can and you're gonna feel all better, okay?" Ayano smiled weakly and assured her love.

"Y-Yeah. Okay, Y-Y-Yan-sama."

Ayano let a few tears drop as Oka fell into unconciousness.
