I forgot the disclaimer again.
Chapter ...: Kanako gets stuck in a closet.
Alternate Title: Okay, it's more complicated than that
"Miss Miyamae~. You really shouldn't yell so early in the morning~. Other people are sleeping, you know~." God sing-songed as she dragged the unconscious girl towards the closet. Mariya watched as his roommate was thrown into the depths with equal parts shock and amusement.
"Now then, Miss Shidou~. Expect to see your roommate soon~!" God declared cryptically as she left.
Kanako couldn't remember much.
She just knew something was wrong the moment she woke up.
Sunlight streamed in from the window, while the ticking of a clock filled her ears. Kanako shifted off the bed to find the room empty, the other bed neatly arranged and a note on her face.
Kanako removed the paper, reading it to herself as she got changed into her school uniform.
'Kanako
It's way too hard to wake you up in the morning! I even hit you with my sword, and you didn't even react!
I hope you aren't too late to class.
I'll see you later!
-Ryuuken'
"Ryuuken..." Kanako muttered to herself, trying to remember whose name that was.
Oh, right. Ryuuken Ishima. Her senior and roommate. Member of the kendo club. That Ryuuken.
Yawning, Kanako checked the clock to see how much time she had to grab breakfast-
Only to gasp and scream in shock when she saw that it was already noon.
Kanako ran outside her room, trying her damn best not to be late to her afternoon class.
"Kanako, are you alright?" Kiri asked mechanically, kind of like google translate, except she pronounced her words correctly. "You were absent for all of today's morning classes, as well as tardy for the afternoon classes. If you were too fatigued or ill to be punctual, then perhaps you should not have attended class today."
"Oh no, I would never be able to spend a day without you beautiful ladies!" Kanako declared with a smile.
"Thanks Kanako!" Sachi returned Kanako's smile with the force of the sun, while Yuzuru was also pleased with the compliment.
"So, what did I miss?" Kanako asked.
"Just some simple math work," Yuzuru replied.
"Yup! It's simple if you know how to do the Reverse Algebra Quantum Dive!" Sachi agreed, unsettling Kanako slightly.
"I don't even know what that is," Kanako answered.
"Well then, allow me to explain," Kiri ordered. She launched herself into a lengthy explanation of whatever a RAQD is (note: it is completely fake) which Kanako completely ignored in favour of staring at the brunette's skirt, desperately praying for a panty shot.
Kiri shifted her legs slightly, her short skirt riding up a bit because of the action. Even though she hadn't seen anything out of the ordinary, the slight movement was too much for Kanako, a stream of blood immediately shooting out from her nostrils. Kanako fell to the floor, blood pooling around her face.
"K-Kanako!" Sachi screamed in shock, standing up from her chair in concern, rushing towards the bleeding girl.
Kanako giggled a bit, looking up at Sachi. "C-could you move a bit closer?"
"Alright," Sachi agreed, stepping closer to the girl on the floor, though not close enough to step in the pool of blood.
"Great, now you're in the perfect position for me to see your panties!" Kanako declared with a smile.
The expressions on her friends' faces could only be described as equal parts disgust and shock.
The day after, Kanako was once again late. Ryuuken didn't even bother trying to wake her up in the mornings.
However, when Kanako entered the classroom, the other girls were acting strange.
Sachi and Yuzuru avoided her stare, preferring to look at the ceiling or the floor. Kiri was staring at her coldly. Honoka and her two friends gave the raven-haired girl a glare as she sat down.
'Somehow, I feel as if I'm not welcome here,' Kanako thought, when a paper airplane hit her in the head.
Kanako was all too used to being the class punching bag, so she ignored the paper as it fell to the ground, instead trying to focus on the lesson. More objects were thrown at her skull, and Kanako dismissed them.
Keeping her head down, Kanako held her tongue and her tears throughout the entire lesson.
The dorm room was empty once again. Ryuuken had kendo practice after school. Kanako didn't know why she expected someone to be there when she opened the door.
Kanako sat down on her bed, took her teddy bear in her arms and began to cry.
She had entered Ame-no-Kisaki hoping to escape her male bullies and find her true love, hoping that the women of the school would treat her kindly.
But now she knew. Women could be just as cruel as men. And the once-kind women of Ame-no-Kisaki had rejected her after learning of her sexuality, just like those at her old school. Everyone she thought of as her friend had turned her away in a single day.
Kanako held on to the plush toy tightly, her breathing becoming more steady as she stroked it's fabric.
Kanako couldn't remember much, but she knew that the bear was calming. Just holding it in her arms was enough to sooth her tears, because hugging it felt like receiving a hug from someone she knew would never reject her, never turn her away.
In some ways, it felt like receiving a hug from the one who gave her the bear, and though she would never admit it-
Kanako froze as she attempted to repeat what she had just thought to herself.
"The one who gave it to me?" Kanako asked, searching her memories.
The bear, it was, it was-
"I don't need it, so you can have it."
-a gift. The bear was a gift.
"Ma-ri-ya Shi-dou?" Kanako said carefully, putting emphasis on each syllable, as if to remember every part of the name.
And in that moment, Kanako remembered. She remembered the blonde waking her up every morning, helping her with her school work, even teaching her how to control her perverted urges, and she sobbed, holding the bear to her chest tightly.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry Mariya!" Kanako exclaimed to the empty room. "You've done so much for me, even you're mean and rude and I acted like I hated you, and I'm so sorry!"
Kanako paused to inhale, before continuing to speak between sobs.
"I miss you..." Kanako muttered, tears running down her face in rivers.
And then God appeared.
Literally, she teleported right in front of her.
"Ah~ .So you finally admitted it~." The cat-eared girl sang to herself as she shoved the taller girl towards the closet. "I think that's punishment enough now~. You can go back now~."
Kanako fell through the portal, screaming as she held onto her stuffed bear tightly.
"What the hell?" Mariya asked as Kanako fell out of the closet, landing before his feet.
"Mariya!" Kanako exclaimed, jumping up from the floor, wrapping her arms around the blonde. "I missed you so much, thank you for existing, I love you but don't take that the wrong way, okay, but thank you for everything."
Mariya stared in shock at the taller girl, before he smirked and said smugly, "You can't even last five minutes without me, huh?"
To his surprise, Kanako answered, "Yeah, I can't! I need my roommate to help me out!"
"Who are you and what have you done with my idiotic roommate?!" Mariya demanded in shock, blush staining his cheeks.
"I'm Kanako and I've done absolutely nothing to myself, you sadistic demon!" Kanako replied with a smile, separating herself from the smaller blonde with a smile on her face and bear in her arms.
As the two began arguing once again, Kanako couldn't help but admit that she missed their arguments most of all.
( Mariya kept blushing and staring at the bear, but refused to elaborate. )
God literally sent her to a world where she never met Mariya. Yeah. God is that powerful.
