Until Daybreak (Korekiyo Shinguuji x fem!reader)

All I Need is You

A/N: Just a heads up to those who are following this story, the updates will be a little slow from now on. It's starting to become more plot heavy until another few chapters later. And before you guys ask me about the M.I.A. performer, she'll make an appearance soon. She's... still stuck in Wales for the time being. I'm not being lazy, I swear!

"I don't want to see you right now."

Those words echoed in his head as he watched you walked away from him towards your dressing room not long ago. The other performers followed closely behind to offer you some support. Now Korekiyo is alone with his two other classmates, Kokichi and Gonta. He sat at the table hunched over with his arms folded on the table and resting his head on top of them. He felt devastated by his own actions he could've easily prevented. What will happen now, he wondered. The tall male did not want to think of any possible scenarios that will result in being unable to see you again.

"Well, look at the bright side, Kiyo," Kokichi chirped across from him. "It didn't turn out as bad as I'd imagined."

"You. Are the last person on Earth I want to be consulted by," Korekiyo groaned. He didn't bother to lift his head up to see his irksome classmate grinning at him.

Kokichi's smile soon waned after a few moments of silence. "Oh, come on! I'm trying to help!"

"Then leave me be. You've done enough damage as is." He wanted both Kokichi and Gonta gone from his sight. For the time being, he just want to be alone with his thoughts. Just when everything was going smoothly, the damned liar had to intervene and ruin it.

The pale young boy refused to leave him alone, much to his annoyance. However, he did wanted to cheer his classmate up in some way. Or, at least, take his mind off of his worries. "I don't see how much damage I did initially. I mean, sure (y/n)'s mad at you for bragging, but that doesn't mean she is going to stay mad at you forever."

Finally, the anthropologist lifted his head up slowly to take a small glimpse at Kokichi. He wore a serious yet sympathetic expression on his face. Something that was fairly rare to see. "What are you trying to say, Kokichi?" he questioned.

"You like this girl, right? I think the best course of action is to take a bit more time to analyze and prepare for what's to come. You may be a proclaimed expert on love, but knowing and actually experiencing it are two separate things." Kokichi smiled a bit at his tall classmate across the table from him. "Once you understand that, then you'd have no problem keeping someone as hot as her around. Riiiiight?"

Korekiyo was still upset at Kokichi for earlier, but he did brought up some valid points. He knew so much about love, yet completely oblivious to the signs. Maybe that was possibly something he needs to explore a bit more. Before he could get a word out, the doors behind them slammed open and a voice rung throughout the main room. "OKAY, WHO'S HEAD I NEED TO BREAK OPEN?!"

The three students quickly turned their attention to the aggressive ash blonde female in the room. She glanced around until she noticed Korekiyo at the table. "Oh!" Her expression softened and she walked towards him with a cheery smile. "Hey, Kiyo! Wasn't expecting to see you here. Thought you were at Beta's house."

"One of your co-workers, Jinx, I believe, called (y/n) and we rushed here as soon as we could," the anthropologist explained. "I was also wondering what brings you here. Your shift doesn't start until late at night, yes?"

"Normally, yes, but after receiving thirty text messages and fifteen missed calls from the twins, I knew something was up. I nearly ran a stop light on the way here." Alpha Wolf laughed sheepishly to herself. "Good thing I stopped when I can. Beta would have killed me if she found out I nearly wrecked her car. Wait, hang on." She then glanced over to the two other people across the table from Korekiyo and frowned. Alpha then slammed her hands down on the table, shaking it slightly from the force which caused the boys to become startled. "You are not supposed to be here! How did you two get in here?" she demanded.
