‘‘god, why is gamekeeper so aggressive?’’ (y/n) muttered while stretching her limbs, tracy stuttering behind her.
fortunately, the match ended with a tie thanks to tide turner. but knowing bane, the two girls didn’t leave unscathed- especially tracy.
(y/n) waited for tracy to catch up. and once she did, (y/n) hooked a pinky around tracy’s. ‘‘we should hurry, emily’s probably gonna have a fit if we take too long,’’
despite (y/n) slowing down to match tracy’s speed, tracy still had a hard time walking properly, her knees would buckle and would hiss in pain if she tried put weight on her swollen ankle.
(y/n) stopped walking and tracy looked at her in confusion. ‘‘what’s the ma-’’
‘‘let me carry you,’’ (y/n) cut her off. tracy cheeks started to turn to a rosy tint and waved her hands. ‘‘a-ah! there’s no need i can walk!’’
her weak attempt to convince the (y/o) didn’t work. instead, she sighed while muttering before suddenly sweeping off her feet.
‘‘uwaH- what are you doing?!’’ tracy squealed and bonked (y/n)’s head. (y/n) uttered a small ‘ow’.
‘‘you can’t even walk straight so you shouldn’t be walking until you get checked up by emily,’’ (y/n) paused before looking at tracy with a smile, ‘‘after all, i do care about you.’’
tracy’s cheeks only reddened before hiding her face in her hands. (y/n) chuckled before kissing the top of her head, ‘‘you’re so adorable it’s unreal sometimes,’’ tracy could only mutter gibberish in her hands while her face got warmer.

‘‘oh my-’’ emily’s petite fingers were raised over her lips, eyeing (y/n)’s and tracy’s injuries.
emily let out a sigh and went to the infirmary, she later returned with a first aid kit and the irritated mercenary.
(y/n) set down tracy on a seat berfore sitting next to her.
naib and emily cleaned their minor wounds with alcohol before covering it with a bandaid and wrapping the bigger cuts with bandages. the girls were silent but occasionally peered at each other.
‘‘it’s like you two get hurt so you can stay in here together,’’ emily huffed while putting plaster on (y/n)’s cheek. ‘‘you need to stop being so reckless.’’
(y/n) didn’t say anything besides mumbling ‘yeah i know’.
‘‘and you, tracy,’’ tracy flinched, which caused the mercenary to exclaim ‘‘stop moving!’’
‘‘don’t be so insistent on saving (y/n) every time, especially during detention,’’ she lectured, wrapping a bandage around (y/n)’s ‘‘but you brought tide turner, so good job,’’ emily patted tracy softly on the head.
‘‘you’re free to go naib,’’ naib grumbled ‘finally’ and was quick to leave. ‘‘you two stay here and take a break for a bit, i’ll find someone to take over your matches for today,’’ and with that, emily left the room.
the two girls didn’t say anything until tracy shuffled closer to the (h/c)ette and leaning on her shoulder.
tracy let out a sigh of content. ‘‘thank you for always protecting me,’’ she smiled and closed her eyes.
‘‘thanks for always being by my side,’’ (y/n) pecked tracy’s band aid (which was on the bridge of her nose) and leaned against tracy’s head. (y/n) wrapped an arm around her waist, closing her eyes as well.
they both drifted off, sharing warmth and holding eachother close.

vera and emma squealed at the sight of the girls cuddling, eli shushed them both. ‘‘shh, don’t wake them up.’’
‘‘ah, aren’t they cute?’’ demi whispered, followed by an enthusiastic nod by mike and a soft ‘mhm’ by andrew.
norton snorted, ‘‘we could use this as blackmail-’’ ‘‘oh hush!’’ martha hit the back of his head. ‘‘let’s just enjoy this when we still can,’’ fiona said softly, smiling at the sight.
tracy stirred in her sleep, (y/n) was still out.
‘‘oh look what you guys did!’’ vera stage whispered, glaring at martha and norton. margaretha put her hand on the perfumer’s shoulder, ‘‘now, now, if you could-’’
tracy groaned and stretched, pushing against (y/n) which led to her shuffling.
‘‘i- uh- i think we should go before they see us,’’ william muttered, he knew what it was like to face (y/n)’s wrath and he wouldn’t like to experience it again.
naib nudged william, ‘‘what’s wrong? scared? pfft, why would you be scared of a mechanic and a (y/o)? what are they gonna do?’’ he kept teasing william until he heard a yawn from tracy.
‘‘and this is where we take our leave,’’ andrew grabbed victor and luca and dragged them away- there was a distant ‘oh come on!’ from luca.
the crowd of the survivors dispersed, until naib and norton remained.
‘‘ah shit, i wish i had joseph’s camera or something,’’ norton mumbled while naib snorted, ‘‘fuckin’ weirdo, taking a picture of girls-’’ ‘‘THAT’S NOT WHAT I MEANT!’’
‘‘what are you doing?’’
naib and norton slowly turned to stare at tracy, who had (y/n) in her lap and was covering her ears.
‘‘shit! i swear to god you dumbass you’re so damn loud!’’ naib used his elbow pads to dash out of the room, dragging norton with him by grabbing his suspenders.
