Cold Sapphire (Shu x OC Fanfic)

The Blue Smoke - Chapter 11

°︎You're just as I remember... strong, yet soft. Never wanting people to feel hurt or be left out yet you won't let anyone step on you. That's my Sapphire... hold on, everything will be explained soon...°︎

My eyes snapped open and I sat up quickly, hyperventilating and in a cold sweat.
     
Who's voice was that? I'd never heard it in my life. And what did she mean by 'hold on'? I questioned myself.

I laid back down slowly and took slow, deep breaths to calm down my rapidly beating heart. I looked at the clock by my nightstand and decided to shower before school.

♪︎♫︎

'Everything will be explained soon.'

My dream/nightmare/vision/hallucination—whatever it may have been—had been clouding my thoughts since I woke up. The brothers and I were in the limo on the way to school.

Subaru sat next to me, not saying a word, as usual.

Kanato talked to his Teddy, and Laito continued to fantasize about whatever perverts fantasized about as he had a smirk plastered across his features.
    
Ayato sat on my other side, looking out the window, and Reiji read his book.

Shu listened to his music as Yui leaned her head on his shoulder with her earphones in.

And I... stared at the floor with nothing in my ears and no book in my hands. I was lost in thought to say the least.

Reiji had told me that Yui had had strange occurrences with the mother of the triplets a few days after we had our talk in his study. I couldn't help but think that the same thing was happening to me.

I leaned back on my seat and crossed my legs while brushing back my long brown and dark blue hair. I sighed and closed my eyes.
     
Headache number one has arrived.

"Sapphire, I expect you to be in all your classes today," Reiji spoke out.

I leaned forward and uncrossed my legs, massaging my temples. "Yes, Reiji," I responded as nicely as I could.

"What's up with you, Cupcake? You've been off all morning, more than usual," I heard Ayato say.

I sat back up while still massaging my temples. "I just have a really bad headache," I responded. "And I'm also really sleepy," I said quietly.

"Tch. You're so noisy."

I looked at Subaru and mouthed the word 'sorry' with a small smile. I put my hands down to not bother him but my headache continued. "Tch," he scoffed as he reached for my head and placed it on his chest. He leaned back a bit and I let myself relax against him as I closed my eyes. He wrapped his arm around my shoulder and moved my hair behind my ear before placing his hand around my waist.

I placed my hand on his chest and let myself fall into a deep slumber.

♪︎︎♫︎︎

I felt the limo come to a stop and I sat up and looked at Subaru. I guessed I wasn't the only one who wanted some sleep. I looked back and saw everyone emptying the limo, seeing Shu leave last before taking a glance at me.

I looked back at Subaru and leaned towards him by his ear. "Subaru. Wake up," I whispered loud enough to wake him up in a peaceful way. He opened his eyes slowly. "C'mon, we have school," I whispered to him with a smile. He opened his eyes completely and and looked at me. "There you go!" I said with a small chuckle.

He blushed and sat up quickly.

I quickly moved back so he wouldn't head butt me as he got up and got out of the limo.

"Don't wanna be late, right?" I asked him and then turned around to head inside the school.

♪︎♫︎

"Now, in English literature..." my eyes closed again as I started to fall asleep. I snapped my eyes open again and yawned.
     
English was so boring..

"Miss Marisuta." I opened my eyes lazily at my teacher. "Do you mind introducing yourself to the class in English since you've been paying attention and have been attending class?"
