Over-Complicated

Chapter 9

- Edited

'Is this bitch seriously calling me out right now? But at the same time she's also exposed herself so I guess it's not so bad.'

"Is it odd to get irritated when people insult my friends?" He raised a brow as the nurse finally stopped covering him in the oil. Which reeked beyond belief. Then the nurse looked at Aria's bruises. Not that he knew this. He just saw the nurse go over there and was doing something.

Everything was blurry as all hell. He wants his glasses back.

"Yeah but it's also weird that you don't snap until I insult him! You'll be petty and sarcastic when I do stuff to you but turn dead serious if I mention him!" She argued. She was right there. Very right. It didn't help her own case but was definitely setting him up for disaster later on when he had to talk to Yamaguchi alone again. Suddenly he was dreading that Friday and wanted it to never arrive.

"Okay so maybe I don't care if people insult me. Maybe I'm a masochistic little shi-" He was going to say shit but there was a teacher right there.

"-bbit." He finished once he found a word. The teacher snorted a laugh.

"Nice save." The nurse commented as she dragged Aria to a different place and forced her to sit down. There were too many people present for Aria to keep spewing this shit. The teacher left though so she probably read that this was going to get personal very quickly.

"You may want to tune her out." The blonde leaned back slightly, he was talking to Yamaguchi.

"I'll try." Yamaguchi whispered nervously.

"Well you seem willing to do anything for him! Maybe even su-"

"Finish that sentence and I'll punch you on purpose." That was a little far even for Aria.

"Just saying! You didn't even bother to chase me when I said I was going to jump off a bridge!" Aria whined.

"Kinda wish you did it."

"Tsukishima Kei!" The nurse snapped at him.

Yamaguchi snorted even if wasn't funny. Sue him for laughing. Aria glared at him. Tsukishima couldn't notice.

"Also you owe me a new pair of glasses." He shot a blank expression in that direction.

"I don't owe you anything!"

"Tell that to my brother." Before she could start he raised his finger to his lips so she'd shut up.

"Yamaguchi." He closed his eyes and sighed.

"Tsukki?"

"Please leave." The nurse walked over to him and gave him an ice pack now that the oil was dry. Then instructed Aria to get one when hers was also dry.

The nurse left along with Yamaguchi. If his friend was offended he couldn't see it. He wished he could.

"Okay. But your brother had no right to tell you that and insult me!" She started the very second he was gone.
