Hard Paper

-Chapter 24- •An Easy Day•

Kuro feels his body being shaken, he quickly gets up, rolls and holds Haru to the ground, Haru starts giggling

Haru: Calm, Calm~ I was just waking you up!~ It's 6:25. You're usually in front of Shiko's door in 5 minutes aren't you?~ he smirks, Kuro quickly gets up, suprised.

Kuro: Are... you really Haru!? He couldn't get up so easily at this time...
He holds out his hand, Haru holds in and gets up

Haru: Ouch... Yes it's me. That hurt more than your floor slam did. He puffs his cheeks and shows himself with his finger
See I'm not ready yet. I just get up early so I can get ready and be wide awake with Aiko during breakfast. You were going to sleep in and looked really comfortable. He smirks and starts getting ready. Kuro checks the time and quickly rushes to get ready. He gets completely ready in 5 minutes and looks at his messed up bed, his eyes widen

Kuro: I slept so messily!? Haru tries to hold in his laugh and averts his eyes

Haru: For once yea... Ask Shiko... he says silently and giggles, Kuro quickly makes his bed and looks at him, confused

Kuro: I really would question you about this but I gotta run, later... he rushes out

Haru looks behind him with a goofy smile as if looking at his growing up child, he gets to getting ready himself while Kuro quickly gets in front of Shiko's door and knocks. Shiko opens with a big smile, eyes slightly teary from laughing, Kuro catches his breath

Kuro: Why are you looking at me like that...? He says, confused

Shiko looks away trying to hold a laugh and shows Kuro her phone, there is a picture from Haru, Kuro's eyes open wide. There is a picture of Kuro sleeping on his bed, laying on his back, one leg above the covers, one leg under. One arm hanging off the bed and one arm on his face. His body is also twisted weirdly and his mouth is slightly open. He looks like a spider that's been stepped on. Even HE gets red looking at the picture and tries to take Shiko's phone. Shiko backs away into her room and dodges him. Kuro closes the door after stepping in.

Kuro: NOPE! You're gonna delete that! I've never been so humiliated!- he tries to take the phone from Shiko, Shiko hides it behind her back and dodges him once again while giggling

Shiko: I know you normally sleep like a wrapped up mummy, tidy and everything! So this little slip is adorable!~ Plus even now you're emberrased. You always tease me, so it should at least be my right to HAVE this picture~ she says with a big smile. Kuro stops and sighs, he rubs his face in his palms and takes a deep breath. When he takes his hands away, he's smiling and the redness of his face is gone. He opens his hand at Shiko. Shiko looks at his hand and then to his eyes. Kuro points at his hand with his eyes. Shiko puffs up her cheeks and gives him the phone, she sighs
You're so unfair... she says quietly while averting her eyes. Kuro looks at her and smirks, he pushes Shiko on her bed, she gets completely red and opens her eyes wide

Kuro: You we're here calling me adorable for being embarrassed. You think you having this picture would stop me from teasing you? He says with a light smirk, Shiko gulps, unable to say anything, she's way more red than Kuro ever was a second ago, Kuro snaps a picture in mere seconds, his smirk quickly turns into a cheeky smile
Shiko quickly gets close

Shiko: W-What did you do! ? She says suprised, a message sound comes from Kuro's phone. Kuro hands over Shiko's phone back to her and giggles sneakily

Kuro: I'm not gonna delete that picture of me. But since you're all about fairness; I now have an embarrassing picture of you~ Shiko quickly gets off her bed and starts hitting Kuro's chest lightly
