[EDITING] Mad Medley ~ A Story of Mistakes // Kuroo X Reader

#2 - Cheshire Cat

I spent the rest of the morning wandering round the campus in the attempt to find my room alone, since I needed to avoid attracting attention and so I couldn't ask anybody to be my tour guide. I couldn't help it, otherwise my secret would have been spoilt.

After two or three hours of wandering I found the building whose number was written on the infamous piece of paper.
Ignoring my feet almost screaming for pity and longing for some rest, I entered it.

HOLY SHIT

I saw boys all around in the hall. Some of them were playing ping-pong, others were watching TV and there were guys chatting everywhere.

With my face almost purple, I tried not to be seen by anyone but how could that be done? When boys get used to live with no girls around its easier for their sense to catch any sign revealing the presence of someone belonging to the other sèx.

So, as if I'd unleashed the mechanism of come booby trap, everybody's head mechanically turned to me at the same time. I felt screwed, so I started running upstairs but everywhere I went there was no place for me to hide.

Before I could realise it, I had run to the third and last floor, which for some reason was desert except for one boy alone. All the rooms were empty, as signalled by a sheet of paper on each door. Each sheet had "no entry allowed" written on it
He definitely looked different, though I couldn't actually tell why. He was sitting on the half-brownish-half-reddish moquette (that color was pretty weird by the way), engaged in reading a book with his glasses on, leaning with his back and shoulders onto a door, which I guessed led to his own lair.

I examined him while panting from the race, whereas for him the world seemed to have stopped. He only paid attention to that damned book he was holding. He was wearing the same uniform as the others, his white, neat shirt beneath his dark red jumper but he wore no tie as the others and his trousers were of a dark brown instead of grey.
And his hair was messier than any other guy's. I'd rather say it was bedhair of an impressive black, darker than a crow's feather.

At some point, I heard the loud, rapid steps of the boys downstairs who had decided to run after me to find out more about why on earth a girl was in there. The strange nerd boy, as he heard the noise, realized the world was still spinning, and saw me.

"Come" he only said, leaving his book carelessly abandoned on the whatever-crappy-color-it-was moquette. And suddenly, with this, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me into a dark narrow room.

My eyes had grown wide and my heart beat fast as I was pushed against his body against my will, my head on his chest. I could also swear I felt... something... down there but let's not talk about this, okay? That's too embarrassing! NSFW ALERT, I REPEAT, NSFW ALERT!

"Sorry for grabbing you like that, all of a sudden. The situation is kinda awkward, isn't it?" he said with a low voice and a small laugh while we still were in the narrow room "But your secret is safe with me."

"How the hell do you..?" I tried to ask, but he put a finger on my lips because of the footsteps and voices which were growing closer and closer. I blushed and I could swear my cheeks were magically glowing in the dark.
Somebody failed to open the door we were hiding behind because the strange nerd had locked it from the inside, and I could see the keys hanging down the keyhole.

Then the noises faded and then he removed the finger.
I forced my head to turn to face him in that semi-dark, narrow place and I could have sworn he was smiling. But his smile was more a grin or a smirk, actually. A Cheshire Cat grin.

"So you're [Surname] [Name]" he said.

"HOW DO YOU..?" I yelled, but the brat didn't answer to this.

"I'm Tetsurou Kuroo" he smirked again "and I'll be your neighbour from now on."

I shivered.

Hey there! 😁

It's actually a bit discouraging that very few people have read the prologue and the first chapter...
I hope there will be more readers soon.

I need some feedback to feel better 😟

See you next week anyway!
