Homra's Queen | Mikoto Suoh x Reader

12. A brand new start

You woke up from your slumber when the rays of sun peeked in through the gaps of the curtains and fell on your face. You fluttered your eyes open only to squeeze them close when they met the sudden brightness.

You threw your arm over your eyes to shield them from the harshness of the light, grumbling under your breath. After a few seconds and some blinking, your eyes finally adjusted to their surroundings. But when you fully opened your eyes and looked around, you noticed that it wasn't your room, rather it was a foreign place. But then again you couldn't exactly say it's foreign because you had been in this room a small number of times. It was Mikoto's room.

At first, confusion struck you as to why you were in Mikoto's room before memories of last night rushed into your mind. You remembered how Mikoto visited you last night to accompany you. Even if he had succeeded in helping you calm down, you still felt alone when it was time for Mikoto to leave. Mikoto had sensed it and proposed that you came with him to spend the rest of the night at Homra. You instantly had accepted it. And upon reaching Homra, seeing as there was a lack of guestrooms, Mikoto kindly gave up his bed to go sleep on the sofa so you could peacefully sleep on the bed. You tried to decline Mikoto's offer but none could win against the king.

Thus that was the story of how you ended up on the King's bed. The bed was soft and comforting. And you were sure you slept peacefully last night because of Mikoto's familiar scent that lingered on the sheets.

A smile crept up to your lips as you stared down at the black leather jacket in your arms, remembering how Mikoto had given it to you to protect you from the cold when you two were returning from your apartment. You had fallen asleep with it.

But soon, more details from the night flooded into your mind and your cheeks instantly became red.

The kiss...

Mikoto had kissed you last night.

The man you had a crush on kissed you last night.

You and Mikoto shared a kiss last night.

Your mind played the words like a broken record, your hand automatically reaching up to touch your lips. You really didn't know what to do, you felt like all bodily functions within you had stopped momentarily from surprise.

The only thing working properly was your heart which was pumping too much blood to your face. You shook your head quickly to bring yourself back to reality. You grabbed your bag from the nightstand and brought out your phone. You noticed that it was still pretty early. So after checking your social medias, you went to the bathroom to freshen up before going downstairs.

The wooden steps under your feet creaked as you slowly descended down them. Upon reaching the end of the stairs, you noticed that the bar was empty except for two occupants at the bar. Izumo and Anna.

"Ohayo (Y/N)-chan!" Izumo greeted you with a smile which you returned. You walked over to them and sat on the stool next to Anna. "Ohayo Izumo-San, Ohayo Anna-chan!" After greeting the older man, you greeted the young girl beside you who was eating breakfast. She too greeted you back in her own stoic way but you didn't fail to see the small smile on her lips.

You turned back towards Izumo just in time to see him push a plate of warm breakfast in front of you.

"I'm starving! Thanks Izumo-San! Itadakimasu!"  With that you grabbed the chopsticks and started eating. The two of you started a conversation, discussing about random things while Anna just listened quietly. After a while, the food on your plate was finished and you finished your meal saying the usual 'gochisousama'
