My Roommate is a Boy?!

Comfort

•Third Person P.O.V•

Asuna had been in the hospital for the past few days with a terrible concussion. She still can't remember the name of the familiar attacker.

Kirito has been with her, aside from sleeping in their empty apartment. It got lonely at night and in the morning. He no longer heard Asuna's sweet voice singing in the shower or talking on the phone. But this is temporary feeling, Asuna comes home today!

Kirito was allowing his roommate to grip his arm for balance, "How are you feeling Asuna?"

They were now back at their apartment, just the two of them. "What do you think?" Asuna found her place on the couch. She glared into his soul with a burning passion of hate. Well, more of annoyance. Kirito was all over in her bubble of space.

How are you feeling?

A question everyone has been asking her. A question she wishes everyone would stop asking.

"Would you like some hot tea?" Kirito broke the small awkward silence like he always does.

It made Asuna smile for the first time in 3 days. "Sure, that would be nice."

Kirito made the hot tea, then brought it over to Asuna; who is still sitting on the couch. They sipped on it quietly, enjoying the silence.

"Asuna, you can talk to me, you know that?" Kirito sat beside her on the couch, being careful not to touch her. He didn't want to spark any terrible memories.

"Mhm." She nodded in agreement. "Thank you buy I think I can handle it on my own. I'll let you know if I need the help of a nerd though." She winked at her roommate, who is now baffled by her response.

"You are really something Asuna." Kirito's eyes looked at her, she didn't notice though.

"Yeah. I know." She giggled.

Kirito fakes being offended, "Wow. And you're cocky."

"Yes, yes I am." Asuna giggled once more. "Thank you."

Kirito sipped on his tea, "For?"

"Just for being you." Asuna rested her head on Kirito's shoulder. "Is this okay?"

"More than okay." A fricken delight! Kirito was doing backflips, mentally anyways. "Classes start for you and I tomorrow. I can grab your assignments if you don't want to go back just yet."

"No. I'll go back tomorrow. Don't worry about me, worry about the exams we missed." Asuna groaned. Good thing it was a valid excuse to miss and get the chance to take them!

"Asuna, do you live just to torture me?" Kirito yawned, he hasn't been sleeping much.

Asuna yawned, because they're contagious ya know! "Of course."

"Your hair smells nice." Kirito was now dozing off into a mid-day nap.

Asuna got comfortable on her half-asleep roommate, "Thanks?"

She'll allow her guard to be down around Kirito, just this once. Both of them feel asleep peacefully in the comfort of each other's warmth.
