Chapter 4: Almost Getting Caught

Kaminari's Pov:

'Shit' I ran over to the bathroom cabinet. "One sec please!" I hurriedly said. I started wrapping my wounds as fast as I could. Once I was done I ran over to my closet and picked out one of my biggest hoodies, in fear of what other people would say if they found out I was trans.

Shinsou's Pov:

I practically ran to my dorm after class. I was already in my dorm when I heard the door from the dorm next door slam shut. I thought nothing of it, until a few minutes later when I heard sobbing.

I sighed, after a minute of consideration I decided to go see if they were alright. I went and noticed the name on the door was Denki Kaminari. 'Wasn't Kaminari the one who was always happy in class?' I thought before I knocked.

"One sec please!" I sighed again knowing I would already be here longer than I wanted to be.

I heard a lot of rustling on the other side of the door. After a moment the door opened. "Hello?" I immediately saw that his face was red from crying.

"Are you ok? I heard crying from my room and I decided to come see if everything was alright." I stated in the same monotone voice I usually use.

"oh yeah I'm fine"

"Ok if you say so" I replied, even though I knew he was lying through his teeth about him being fine.

I was about to leave when I heard his voice barely above a whisper ask "Could you not mention this to anyone please?"

I look back at the small boy and realize what he is wearing. He is wearing a sweat shirt that is about two sizes to big for him and loose short shorts. I turn slightly red in the face because of what he is wearing. I also notice he has bandages on his arms. I wondered why he has them on, but I decided against asking. "Yeah whatever" I say as I turn to go back to my dorm room.

I go back into my dorm room and sit on my bed trying and failing to get some sleep.

~Time skip~

I look at the clock. It's three A.M. I sigh, I know I'm not going to get anymore sleep, so I head down to the common room. I see a figure sitting on the couch.

As I got closer I realized it was Kaminari. 'Why is he up at this time?' He sat cross legged and he was crying again. He had a book on the couch next to him but it wasn't open. It looked like he was out of it. I went over to him.

"kaminari?" I ask.

No response. I look at him again and I can see that his eyes are all misty like he was out in the fog. I wave my hand in front of his face. No response once again. I finally snapped my fingers in front of his face and his body instantly jolts, like he awoke with a start. He looked at me confused at first, then his eyes widened as he wiped his face.

"I-I need to go" he said. He ran off before I could stop him. I was tempted to follow him, but I didn't want to get into his business. Plus if he wanted to tell me, or anyone for that matter, he would.

Kaminari's Pov:

It was around two thirty in the morning and I was still awake. I decided to go to the common room as nobody was ever awake at this hour. So I grabbed a book and went to sit on the couch and read. The book I was reading was quite sad. And before I knew it, my vision became blurry before it changed completely.
