Sarah's p.o.v.
After we ordered we all sit in a peaceful silence just relaxing seems none of us felt chatty. Tapping my fingers on my chin I think about the letters, perhaps they said more after that sentence, I wanted to just work on it now but with Dabi here I couldn't.
The necklace felt heavy causing me to bite my lip. I needed to get answers this wasn't fair to any of my family or david.
"So you're a cafe manager," Dabi looks over to Nikki "What do you do?"
She shrugged, taking a bite of her burger. "I'm in between jobs right now." Is her response as she plays on her phone.
I feel mine go off and remember I can't show my phone case….especially to the man next to me. As it was his face on my phone case.
Luckily the food comes distracting me so I could stuff my face, my stomach was growling and hurting from not eating more than a meal a day the past four days.
Nikki furrows her eyebrows at me. "Sarah…… when was the last time you ate?"
I sweat as I lean back a bit realizing I had just eaten half my burger in two bites. "Last night?"
Her eyes narrow at me and Dabi raises an eyebrow watching the two of us. "Ok...when was the last time before last night?"
I cough stalling taking a drink looking away knowing I was about to get yelled at. "Uhhhhh…..the night before?" I mumbled into my cup not meeting her intense gaze.
"So are you saying since we've been here you've barely slept AND ATE ONE MEAL A DAY?!?!" She ends up shouting at me getting us a few weird looks.
I shrug finishing off my burger. "You know I have insomnia so I don't sleep much...and I wasn't hungry, least I didn't feel hungry. "
Nikki sighs rubbing her face sitting back down before looking at me with a worried expression. "Just take care of yourself okay? No dying on me."
I laugh hooking a thumb at Dabi. "Dude if I was gonna die I'm pretty sure he'd have killed me. I mean look at him he just screams murderous intentions though he does seem to have morals. So if I die blame him."
I attempt to make it into a joke though from her look I knew she wasn't buying it.
"Well that's rude." He mumbles but I could see he was amused by it also seeming to be interested in us even more.
Pointing a fry at him I say. "Yet you didn't deny it. "
Nikki pinches the bridge of her nose seeming to try and calm herself.
He smirks and bites the fry nearly getting my fingers at the same time.
"I knew you were a kinky son of a bitch." Nikki mutters eating some fries of her own.
He just shrugs still smirking and I just shove more food in my mouth to keep my comments to myself.
After we all finish eating we start walking back to the house Nikki and Dabi chatting about some science theory. I just kind of spaced out looking around.
When we got back we all just chilled in the living room. Nikki sat on the side part of the couch stretching out making Dabi and I sit next to each other on the bigger section which I didn't really care about.
Dabi took control of the remote putting it on some movie. Yawning I stretch and curl up my feet under me leaning against the side of the couch idly staring at the plant that had taken over the entire ceiling.
After a while I pull out the notes and my journal working on the next sentence. Brushing it off as homework to Dabi when he gave me a curious look.
My quirk allows me to open portals to other world, I am the only one able to do so. In these pages you will find what you need to live the rest of your lives here. For if I was there you would not have these letters, in that case it means I have died along with my partner. Our deepest apologies for this inconvenience.
My jaw tightens as I reread the paragraph over and over.
I didn't see Nikki's worried yet curious look or the curiosity of the man across from me.
I shut the journal shoving it into the bag and stand. "I'll be back."
Not waiting for a response I head upstairs shutting the door and sliding down it before just losing control.
Tears run down my face as I bury my face in the bag to muffle my sobs.
After what seems like seconds a knock is on my door and Nikki calls through the door. "Hey you good? Dabi left...can I come in?"
I stand wiping my face sniffling and open the door going to sit on the bed my knees against my chest
"What did it say?" Nikki asks upon seeing my face looking torn like she wanted to hug me but awkward about doing so.
Taking a breath hiccuping. "We're stuck here….no way home."
She comes and sits next to me patting my back. "Well we still can talk to them through the phone, we can make up some story about moving here…" she suggests.
I shake my head pulling out my phone and flipping it around so she could see how many texts and calls I had gotten.
"Holy shit 43 texts and 29 calls? Just today?"
Once again I shake my head wiping my face just staring at the blanket whispering. "Two hours."
Her hand stops as she remembered what I had told her. It had been in theory a long time ago. Now it would be reality.
If we magically ever got put into another universe and still had contact with our world but no way home I'd have to make it seem like I hated everyone or was dead or they would never stop searching for me.
I pull out the necklace that held the ring but also the orca pendent David had given me and take it off giving it to Nikki.
She tenses seeing the ring. "Don't tell me…..that's why you wanted to talk the other day? You're engaged?"
Grabbing a pillow I bury my face in it nodding. "I was going to ask you to be my maid of honor."
She hugs me then knowing even if neither of us were huggers but this was a time for it.
"Damn...I'm sorry…." She says trying to comfort me.
I sniffle waving her off forcing a smile. "Could be worse. I'm going to the garage, we need a door and I need to not think for awhile. "
She looks like she wanted to tell me no but she just sighs and nods knowing me well enough.
I stand tossing the pillow back on the bed leaving my phone and the necklace on the bed.
I get lost in measuring, sanding, cutting, painting, placing glass and putting a knob I found with a set of keys.
Hearing a voice makes me nearly jump out of my skin.
"Hey there, need any help?"
Flipping around brandishing a scrapper I see Gummy. Releasing my breath I lower the tool. "Yeah I could use some help carrying them to the house. Thanks."
He smiles nodding and it was then I see Tamaki behind him. To which I just wave and grab a door walking past them.
I had made French glass paned doors. And had painted them a teal color I had found on a hidden shelf.
"Such craftsmanship! Have you done this before? " Gummy asks having a door under his arm like it as nothing.
I shake my head catching a glimpse of Nikki from the window. She must have called Gummy knowing her. She didn't know how to handle sad people.
"So just a random drop by? I figured its a Friday night you two would be out patrolling for trouble." I comment as we pass the goats to which Tamaki stops at.
He looks away chuckling. "We are just….had a hunch you were needing some company. How was your day?"
I roll my eyes shaking my head. "Well could be better, really don't want to talk about it though."
I could feel him watching me but at the moment I didn't care. I just wanted to be alone.
"Fair enough. But just so you know I am a darn good listener if you need one." He replies.
Thankfully I smile up at him though it doesn't reach my eyes.
