To Fear or Be Feared || Umeji Kizuguchi x Reader || COMPLETED ✓

CHP. 19 • Suspended •

The next day, Y/N woke up with a smile on her face. She felt so happy and relieved that the problem with her father was sorted, that she couldn't help the warm emotions from surfacing. The room that the Shidesu's provided her with was slightly smaller than her previous room, but Y/N much preferred it's peaceful atmosphere to the nerve wracking one of her previous abode.

Y/N got up and stretched her hands over her frame with a satisfying cracking of joints following the action. The H/C-haired girl began to get ready for the day, for the first time in ages not feeling rushed to leave her bedroom. She quickly made her bed and travelled downstairs to pick up the lunch Osoro had made for them last night. Y/N stuffed the bento box into her navy school bag and proceeded to grab a snack bar from the counter. She hadn't seen Osoro that morning, and the blonde's lunch was missing, so Y/N assumed that she had already departed for school. After Y/N was done eating, she tidied away and walked out of the house.

On her way to school, the weather was still warm, causing Y/N to smile as she remembered the events from last night. She just couldn't believe that Umeji loved her like that, because for the longest time, Y/N believed she would never find someone who would. Y/N grinned and blushed lightly just thinking about him. She was so head over heels for the boy even though their newfound kindness towards each other only started out mere weeks ago. Y/N practically skipped to school that morning, but suddenly, a rowdy scene caught her attention.

"Do I look like I give a shit about your damn rules!?" exclaimed a familiar voice just around the entrance to the school. Y/N quickly turned the corner and hid behind a bush to eavesdrop on the conversation. The H/C-haired girl gasped silently once she realised that Osoro was the source of the voice. The blonde had her hands on her hips in an angry stance, while the gym teacher stood before her wearing a livid expression. In that moment, Y/N wasn't actually sure which one of them seemed more frightening to approach.

"Watch your language young lady!" reprimanded the teacher, "And if you don't care about school rules, how about we go right up to the counsellors office and see what she thinks of these." The teacher protruded a small box from her pocket and Y/N almost facepalmed once she realised what it was.

'Cigarettes, seriously Osoro? I knew you being out of the house before me couldn't have been good.'

The H/C-haired girl sighed and quickly scrambled to get away from he scene before she was caught listening in. Y/N went to her locker, and just as she was finished putting on her indoor shoes, she saw Osoro and the gym teacher making their way towards the guidance counsellor. Y/N quickly finished up and followed the pair at a safe distance, wanting to know exactly what would happen to her best friend. She watched as they stopped at the counsellors door, only for the gym teacher to knock and enter. After the two were safely inside the room, Y/N shuffled closer to the door to catch their voices.

"This is absolutely unacceptable Miss Shedesu! How dare you violate school rules like this, and also give out to a faculty member! I'm afraid we have no choice but to suspend you for such behaviour. You are excused for a week."

Y/N could mentally see Osoro cheering inside her head at the prospect of not having to go to school, but her suspension also meant that the E/C eyed girl would be stuck there without her best friend.

'Ugh... not again Osoro. Can't you resist for at least a few weeks?'

"Excuse me, do you have any business at the counsellors office?" asked a voice from behind Y/N. The H/C-haired girl turned around and slightly panicked to see a member of the student council standing there.

"Eh, yes, I'm just waiting on a friend. She had some family business that needs to be taken care of."

Thankfully, the student council member nodded, seeming to buy Y/N's excuse, and continued on her way. The H/C-haired girl blanched slightly before deciding that she had enough of eavesdropping for one day. Y/N left for her class with a slight damper to her mood.

'Now I'll have to sit through my classes by myself.'
