"Thank you... for taking me to the nurses office," I say as I look down and play with my hands, the memory of Shoto falling still playing in my mind. Kacchan stands with me outside the door to my dorm, "Uhm, goodnight,"
I look up at him, I really don't want to leave him. I feel like such an idiot, why did I blindly follow him like that, I almost got Shoto injured.
He sighs, huh?
"Just come here idiot," He says in an exhausted voice as he pulls me into his embrace, my face turns to one of shock. I feel his hands tighten on the sides of my waist as his arms wrap around me, I'm weak.
"Kacchan-"
"Urusai," He whispers, I keep my mouth shut. After what seems like a lifetime, he speaks, "Get some rest," With that, he lets go and walks back down the hall.
I stand there, still in shock. Does he feel bad because it was his dupe I followed?
"Wait, Kacchan!" I call as I run behind him, without giving him a chance to respond I wrap my arms around him from behind, "Don't leave me again,"
"Ha?" He asks confused as he turns around, I look up at him and his face shifts, a new look of determination takes control, "I won't."
I lay my head onto his chest and for the first time he doesn't make an annoyed sound, instead he places a hand onto it and brings his head down closer to mine. I let myself become vulnerable in his embrace, I really am an idiot but when Kacchan holds me I feel so safe.
"You need to sleep," He says as he brings his head back up, I don't budge, he sighs, "Let's go then," He takes his arms away from my waist and walks ahead, "You coming?"
-
I lay on his chest, while he lays on his back with one hand around my waist and the other under his own neck. I prompt myself up slightly to look at his face, he's staring at the ceiling?
"Is something wrong?"
"Other than you clinging onto me?" I pout, he looks down for my reaction and moves the hand around my waist to touch my hair, "It was probably a one off that she obtained my blood but how did they know to use me?" Oh? I didn't think about that.
"You think they're watching?" I ask, he looks back up to the ceiling with the same concentrated look.
"Mmm, so make sure you don't stupidly run off," He instructs, "Always adding to my list of problems,"
"Sorry," I say with a grin, he pauses and rolls his eyes before he shoves my face away, "Ow-Kacchan!"
"Shh, the others will hear us,"
"Oh right- OH!" he flinches from my yell,
"What did I just sa-"
"I got my quirk!" To my surprise he shows little reaction, "Don't you wanna know?"
"Whatever," I notice his eyes aren't on me but on my injured arm, he looks somewhat annoyed, "for now just get some fucking rest," He moves the hand under his neck and brings my head back onto his chest.
"I'm not tired,"
"Where do you get your energy?"
"I feel recharged after getting my quirk,"
"Well I feel drained having to deal with you so shut it and get some rest," He holds me in his embrace, and I look up to see him close his eyes. He seems to still have furrowed brows and a slight frown, "I said I wouldn't leave you again so just sleep,"
Was he struggling to speak his mind?
"Mhm," I say with a smile as I wrap my arms around his neck, his warmth on my fingertips and his caramel scent brings me comfort as I finally close my eyes.
