Hands on the sink, Maki stared into the mirror. Her reflection was so close, it was like they would merge together any second. She furrowed her brows and stared herself down. Folding her arms, she turned to look aloof at herself. Something about her wasn't menacing anymore.

It was 20:27 on a Thursday evening and Maki Harukawa was practicing and assessing her glares. She was wearing a peach nightie wrapped in one of Kaito's hoodies (as it was December and rather cold). The reason for staring herself down in the bathroom mirror for the past quarter of an hour was because she felt as if her looks weren't as terrifying as they used to be. The other day, Kokichi had run into her on the way to college and he wasn't phased whatsoever when he turned to look at her.

Changing her stance and angle every few seconds, Maki was not going to give up until it was up to standard. She tried talking "Do you wanna die?" "Piece of shit." "Fucking asshole." But that did nothing and she began to talk like Miu. Amongst all of the commotion, a sleepy head poked around the door to check on her. "Maki-roll you doin' okay?" Kaito asked with a yawn his hair falling in front of his eyes without the gel holding it all up.

This was her chance. Maki turned at stared at him dead in the eye. "Whoa babe I just wondered why you were in here for so long. Should I of knocked?" He said calmly trying to be nice. Harumaki turned back to the mirror and continued practicing. Kaito, still baffled, stood behind her and watched at what she was doing in the mirror.

Maki turned and looked over her shoulder to glare in the mirror and Kaito pulled at his mouth with his fingers and stuck out his tongue. He of course thought that they were having a face off. Every time Maki changed expressions, so did Kaito. He became quite inventive and started to use towels and his toothbrush to spice things up. However hard she tried, Maki couldn't help but laugh.

"What.. what are you doing?!" She laughed hand over mouth. "What do you mean? I'm being scary too?" He said playfully bear hugging her from behind. "Now, what was my perfect Maki-roll doing in here staring herself down?" Kaito asked caressing her cheek. "I just... I... I didn't think that i could glare anymore so I was practicing."
"Aw baby. You're fine whatever. Is it that idiot liar again? Don't let him get to you he's a prick. You know I'll support you no matter what and I'll make sure that you're happy in your own skin? I won't let anything get you down ok?" Kaito reassures her and brought her in for another hug as they shared a kiss.

"Come on you promised a quick movie." Kaito said smugly kissing her cheek. Maki play punched his as she got up. Hand in hand, they walked back to their bedroom to watch a well deserved movie.

"I love you, you idiot." ❤️

"I love you more you dork." 💜
