(Hachiman's POV)
You know that feeling when you're about to face the final boss of your game? You know, the nervousness, anxiety and many things. Well it turns out that could happen in real life, I mean really. I'm right here standing infront of the final boss door which is my parents room with our favorite roomate none other than Miura. Because of a misunderstanding we have been forced to face the boss even if our level is not enough. Well enough of my shenanigans, I no we're now going to enter it, good luck to us guys!
KNOCK,KNOCK,KNOCK. "Mom?" I asked while knocking.
"Come in." She said
We are now facing my mom now with a nervousness on both of our faces. "Uhhm, Mom about what you'd seen at the living room it's uhhh, all a misunderstanding." I said to my mom trying hard to explain about what she saw before.
"Misunderstanding!? What do you mean misunderstanding? Explain yourself!" She said angrily
"Calm down first mom, we'll tell you after you calm down." I said to my mom as soflty as I could to help my mom soothe her anger.
After a few minutes my mom said that she is now calm, then after we told us the reason to why we we're on that positions minutes ago, my mom now had a guilty looking face.
"I'm sorry if I shouted at the both of you. I was just so tired and when I came back home I see the both of you in that position so I kinda black out hehe." My mother said while laughing bitterly.
"It's okay hikigaya-san, we understand it." Miura said soothingly
"You could leave now hachiman, Miura will stay a bit we'll talk about something." My mom said. 'It's okay for me, atleast now I'll get my peace in my room again' I thought to myself.
"Okay." Was all I replied after that I now go straight to the door and about to closed it when Miura suddenly called me.
"H-hikio!" She said while stuttering.
"What?" I asked
"N-no, i-it's nothing I-I just want to say g-g-good n-night." She said while blushing furiously
I also blushed but I tried to look neutral and answered back. "Y-yeah, you too." I said while stuttering. 'God why am I blushing? She's just saying goodnight to me so why?' I thought trying to find an answer.
After I said it, she just smile at me although it's only small and quick, I still witness it the rare genuine smile of her.
(At the room) (Miura's POV)
'God, why am I blushing!? I'm only saying good night to him so why do I feel my cheeks are burning?' I thought. 'Could it be? No, no, no, don't even think of it Yumiko, The one I love is Hayato and not him! He's just a disgusting creepy loner, how could I ever choose him than Hayato.' I blushed while thinking about it. As I continue to reassure myself, hikigaya-san starts to talk.
"You're Yumiko-san right?" Hikigaya-san asked
"Yes that's me, Hikigaya-san." I said to her politely
"Please don't call me that, you could just call me Haruhi." Haruhi-san said while smiling.
"I guess this is the first time we ever see each other, I'm sorry for what happened at your house, also I'm sorry if I wasn't there to welcome you when you came." Haruhi said with an apologetic tone in her voice.
"I-it's okay haruhi-san, actually I'm very grateful that your family accepted me here with open arms." I said trying to be polite infront of her.
"No need to be formal here girl, I want you to treat us like a family so no need to be polite here." Haruhi-san said to me to remove my nervousness.
We talked and talked for like hours and I started to be open with her and feel comfortable with her, we mostly just talked about fashion, at first I was shocked that his mother was into fashion so I questioned her, and she just answered with 'I still need to look young and fresh infront of my workers or clients and sometimes to my husband.'
'How come hikio never learn from his mother and daughter about fashions?' I thought to myself
"Hikio? Who's that?" Haruhi-san asked.
'Did I just said it out loud?' I ponder. "O-oh, i-it's hikigaya's nickname that I gave him." I said while getting red from saying it. 'Why am I blushing? I-it's not like I like him like that right!?' I asked myself that, meanwhile Haruhi-san just laughed at it.
"Hahaha, never could've thought hachiman could do it, I'm proud of him." She said in a mischievous tone and with a teasing glint on her eyes.
"I-i-it's a misunderstanding, i-it's because when I first met him I don't remember his name clearly so I tried to invent one." I explained to her that it was nothing but she just laughed it off.
"Hahahaha you have a point there he is not a person worth, remembering." She said while mocking her own son. 'He's your son right?' I sweatdropped as she just insulted her own son infront of his classmate.
"But, I know you already remembered his name or maybe even his lastname as you called 'hikigaya' before, but you still use the nickname you gave to him, hmmmm maybe it had something in it." Haruhi-san said while making a thinking pose.
"N-no, it doesn't had any deeper meaning in it. I-I guess I just get used to use it rather than his name." I said trying to explain to her that it held no deeper meaning.
"Don't worry about it I'm only teasing you." She said with a grin that I think an older woman would do.
"I guess it's kinda late now, you had dinner already right?" Haruhi-san asked
"Yeah, the three of us had eaten already, how about you won't you eat something?" I asked her
"Oh, I think I'll pass dinner tonight I'm kinda tired today." She said
"Oh please you had to eat, you should try hikio's curry it's so delicious,komachi also said that he rarely cook so I guess this curry is a rare type of curry." I said trying to convince her to eat her dinner.
"Hachiman cooked? Well I guess I could eat a some later." She said with.
'Wow she changed her mind when I said it's hikio who had cooked for dinner, is he that great of a cook?' I thought remembering the dinner she had just eaten.
"Haruhi-san, I'll be heading back to komachi's room as it's getting late and I still had school tomorrow, also thank you for talking with me it's so fun talking to you." I said while smiling at her.
"It's okay, I also hadn't that kind of talk in a long time because of work it's a great stress reliever. Also if you need anyone to talk to just call me or komachi we are here for you." She said with a motherly smile on her face.
"Thank you, I'll accept your offer." I said as I stand up and head towards the door, as I open the door i stopped and greet her a goodnight which she answers back with a goodnight on her own.
As I was walking towards the room of Komachi, I saw hikio's door slightly open. I peeked at his room as I was curious what is he doing inside his room, 'I-it's not like I'm interested on what he's doing there just curious.' I blushed when I thought about it. As I got closer to his room, I noticed that inside was dark though some parts weren't because he's PC is on right now and he's there playing on it with his headphones on, the game is,what I think to be a horror game. 'I thought something interesting' I thought some plan with a devilish smile creeping on my face. 'If this will succeed it will make my day atleast before it end a funny one.
I started to creep closer to him intending to do the prank that I had thought. 'He's so focused on the game he didn't even notice that someone got in on his room' I thought, as I crept closer and closer, and when I got so near him.
"BOOOO!" I shouted at him which causes him to almost jump from his seat.
"WHAAAAA!" He shouted he almost fell down from his actions. "What the hell? Why did you that!?" He asked angrily, though I didn't mind it as his anger was on the spur of the moment and he wouldn't be angry later.
"Hahahahahaha, that reaction, hahaha, was the best it made my day." I said while laughing like there's no tomorrow.
"So, why the hell you did that? You almost killed me!" He said calmly, though he's still angry for what I've done.
"I saw your door open, and when I peek at it I saw you there so focused on the game that you hadn't noticed me getting closer." I said explaining to him
"That still isn't a reason for you to sneak up behind and scare me." He said still angry
"Come on hikio don't sweat the little things, and look on the bright side, you learned a lesson to always lock your door when you're playing a horror game." I said to him to jokingly.
"Haaaah fine I won't win this conversation in the first place anyways but, I'll forgive you on one condition." He said
I blushed for what is his request is. 'Could it be he wanted to...'. "Wh-what are you saying! Y-you creep, HENTAI!" I said while covering my chest with my arms and backed away from him.
"Wh-wh-what are you saying!? That's not what I'm going to ask you!" He said while also having a blush on his face as he also thought the same thing that I'm thinking.
"Th-then, wh-what are you going to do with me." I said still with a slight blush on my face.
"O-oh, I was going to ask you to play this game that I'm playing right now." He said
"Oh, sorry maybe next time, yeah I'll play it next time. It's getting late and I want to sleep." I said to avoid playing that horror game, its not like I hate horror game, its just that I'm not good at it.
"Hoooh, so the mighty queen is afraid of a horror game?" He taunted me with a smug look on his face.
"What are you saying? I'm not scared of a horror game!" I fell for the taunt because of my stupid pride got insulted.
"Then, are you going to play it?" He asked with a taunting tone and with a creepy grin on his face.
"Yeah I'm going to play it! It's only a horror game, what harm could it do to me?" I said without thinking first.
"Ok, ok, here I'll tell you to how to win this game and I'll also tell you the controls, oh and also this game is called Sophie's Curse." He said to me
After a few minutes of teaching me the controls and how to play and win this game I thought, 'hey the control is easy it's just a click based horror game and the objectives are easy, I guess I could do it.' Oh how I wish I hadn't thought of that.
"I'll be here sitting beside you to have a VIP place where I can see you get scared." He said while sitting beside me.
As I started to play the game, so far nothing scary is happening so I let my guard down, thinking I could finish this game without getting scared, oh I was sooooo wrong for thinking about that. As I go upstairs and head towards the bathroom to recharge the light bulb thingy, I saw someone walking fast from the corridor towards the other room, i started to get scared and nervous that instead of right clicking I left clicked my mouse and my character goes out of the bathroom and as soon as my character looks at the corridor, something jump on it.
"Kyaaaaaaaa~!" I shouted while removing my head phones and closed my eyes.
"Pffft, you could open your eyes now." I still hadn't opened my eyes. "Come on it's okay now, I already exited the game you could open it." He said gently.
I opened my eyes and I saw his desktop is starting to shut down. "Scared?" He asked with a smirk on his face.
"I-i'm not s-scared!" I told him
"Yeah, yeah, keep saying that." He said clearly not believing a word I said. "It's getting late now you should go back to komachi's room and get sleep like you said earlier." He said to remind me
"I was about to do it!" I shouted. As I was about to get out his room he stopped me and is going to say something.
"Oh, Miura good night and 'sweet dreams'." He said, though the he said the last part sarcasticaly.
As I opened the door to komachi's room the lights were already out and I saw her lying on the bed sleeping like a log. I lay there on the bed beside her trying to get some sleep... But I couldn't everytime I close my eyes all I could remember is that freaking horror game that I played. I looked at the clock and its 12 midnight but I still couldn't get to sleep. I started to get up and go out of the room to get a drink to soothe me up and help me get to sleep. As I get out of komachi's room I quickly head down to the kitchen and get an orange juice and poured it on my cup. After I'm done drinking I put the juice back at the fridge and starts to head back, when I'm now near the stairs I saw a silhouette of a man walking towards where me and komachi's room are. I started to get afraid remembering about the horror game that I'd played hours ago, I start to walk slowly upstairs, and when I'm at the second floor, I saw it, a sillhouette going inside a room. I'm starting to freak out and sweats are dropping on my head, 'What am I gonna do? Komachi's room is just beside the room where the silhouette get in.' I thought. I look to my left and saw a room there, my body moved on its own and starts to bang the door. The door opened and the one who opened it was hikio who is wiping his eyes as he had just been awakened.
"Why are you banging on my door at the mid-" I hadn't let him finished as I had tackled him, we fall down to the ground as he was not prepared of me tackling him.
"Ack" I heard coming from him.
"What the hell is wrong with you, woman!?" He asked angrily, because he had been awokened by the banging of the door and now he got tackled to the ground.
(Hachiman's POV)
I was on the floor with Miura on top of me as she suddenly tackled me when I was going to ask her why was she banging on the door. Usually I'm nervous when someone is this close to my personal space, but this it's a girl! But instead of getting nervous, I was angry and irritated right now because I suddenly got awokened because of the banging of my door, and now this!? This is unforgivable even if on top of me is a girl!
"What the hell is wrong with you, woman!? I asked angrily to her, as she suddenly tackled me like that.
I'm startin to get irritated because she isn't even answering my questions. I was going to push her to the side by putting my hands to her shoulder when I saw her face. Her face looks pale like she had seen a ghost, my bad temper quickly dissappeared and now I had a worried look as I start to question her more calmly.
"What's wrong? You've look like you'd seen a ghost." She flinched and grabbed my shirt tighter when I said the word ghost.
"Come on you could tell me about it. What happened for you to look like that?" I asked gently to her to help her to be calm.
"I-i-i saw...something" she stopped
"You saw what, Miura what did you saw?" I urged her to finish her story
"I-i saw some kind of a silhouette getting in at one of the room." She stated nervously
"Ok, so what kind of a silhouette is it that you saw?" I asked to confirm my suspicions
"It looks like a man judging from what I saw." She said more calmly.
'I guess I'm right about who that sillhouette is'. "Miura, the sillhouette you saw was my dad." I said to her
"Your dad?"
"Yeah he usually comes home this late due to him working, don't worry komachi also got scared before when she also saw what you saw but now I guess she gets accustomed to it as she isn't afraid anymore." I said to her to help her be more calm.
After a few minutes of me calming her down I only realized it but... She's still on top of me! This is the second time today!, ok hello rom-com Gods, if you're planning something for me could you please, uhm I don't know maybe a warning!? I have to prepare myself you knoowww~.
"M-m-miura, y-you're still on t-top of me." I said while blushing furiously.
She also realized what position we're in right now, as she is also blushing furiously. "I-I-I'm S-sorry Hikio!" She quickly get away on top of me by moving to the side. I tried to calm my nerves down and ask her to get some sleep, as it's already past midnight.
"M-miura, you should go to sleep now it's already past midnight." I reminded her.
"Y-yeah, I guess you're right. She said while she stands up, as she walks towards the door she stopped and look at me with an eye that I didn't know she could do.
"H-hikio, c-could you led me until the d-door of komachi's room?" She said with a puppy dog eyes.
'Ugh, why do it with the puppy eyes? I couldn't decline now because of that.' "O-ok, I'll led you." I said, 'I guess I really do have a weakness on woman.' As soon as I said that she smiled brightly, a smile that shouldn't belong to me, a smile she only gave to hayama. So why? Why are you giving me that kind of smile? Did you do it because you like... No stop your line of thought, don't misunderstood that smile, she only smiled like that because she was grateful that I'll led her to komachi's room as she was still scared. Oh now that I've thought of it, the story she told me was almost like the game she had played hours ago where she got scared. So when she saw the silhouette she remember the game. I guess it's partly my fault for her being that scared, I should apologize to her later this morning.
We,re now infront of komachi's room, she opens door and starts to head to the bedroom, when she stops and turn around to look at me.
"Hikio" she said while she's facing down
"Yeah?" I asked
"I j-just want to say, Thanks." She said with her smile again, that smile again, the smile only hayama could see, that smile that she reserved for the one she loved, but now she's giving me that smile. 'Again don't misunderstand, she's only thanking me because I help her there's no way she would have a thing for me.'
"I-it's no problem, I only did that to rid you away from my room." I lied to her. I turn around and starts to walk away when I hear her shouting.
"What do you mean rid me away!? You know it's your fault why I got scared like that, you'll pay for it get ready!" She said
"Yeah, yeah, I'll wait for it." I said while waving at her while walking away with a genuine smile plastered on my face.
I soon got on my bed and lay down, I tried to sleep but everytime I close my eyes all I see is her smile, her genuine smile she gave me two times today. 'Why am I even thinking to deep about it? It's nothing to think about it's just a smile, don't misunderstood.' I remove my line of thought, after a few minutes my eyelids starts to get heavy and I started to fall asleep but before I get lost in dream land, one question was on my mind.
