Nariko walks out of her bedroom, hair damp and dressed in a baggie hoodie and short shorts. She hears the dialogue of a movie she hasn't seen before playing on the TV as she enters the living room. Katsuki looks up when he hears Nariko's footsteps
"What's the movie? I don't think I've seen this," She asks curiously, ignoring the way Katsuki stared at her.
"Kaminari, those scars. What happened?" Nariko sighs at the question.
"Why'd you have to be so fucking persistent, huh?" Nariko asks with a small, bitter smile.
"I definitely don't need this now. Not ever, preferably..." The yellow haired teenager walks over to the couch and sits with her knees to her chest.
She stares at her friend–he is a friend, right?–before averting her gaze to count the scars on her leg. "I can't tell you everything. If I did, you'd probably be killed if any of... them found out I told you. Fuck, I haven't even told anyone anything..."
"Just–I've been the target of some really dangerous people who appear to be heroic, but they fucking aren't, for eight years. With that kind of... popularity I guess, I get jumped and attacked more often than not by less than desirable people," Nariko explains with furrowed eyebrows. "Some've even tried to kill me. Failed, obviously."
"Why don't you go to the fucking authorities? You're being stupid," Katsuki snarks with no heat behind his words. Nariko lets out a cold chuckle.
"Honestly, that be amazing. But these people they're–they've people everywhere, and I mean everywhere. I don't know who I can trust to help me." She messes with her ring.
"This place is safe though. They know not to attack me here, so you're safe–and if they do attack when you're here, there's a panic room here they have no idea about," The yellow haired teenager adds.
Nariko glances up and finally gets a good look at the blonde. A well-hidden bruise was concealed with make-up across his left cheek and eye. She frowns slightly and leans back.
"You can stay as long as you like. Unfortunately, I can only buy enough food for my food days for a month, but I'll try my best to buy more for you," She changes the subject while turning her head to watch the movie.
Katsuki laughs quietly. "You're not gonna ask why I came by at two in the fucking morning?"
"Well, I can tell something happened. I've covered enough bruises and scars to spot a hidden bruise," Katsuki tenses, "but if you want to tell me, I'll listen. I won't force you to tell me anything. These situations are touchy and dangerous for the–the victim."
"I'm–I'm not a fucking victim!" The blonde snarls. Nariko winces slightly. Woops, bad word choice.
"Bad word choice, sorry," Nariko says softly, turning to face Katsuki again. The anger practically disappears, leaving an exhausted Katsuki.
Nariko frowns. "It must be pretty bad. He's never exhausted."
"When you're ready to ask for help–to get out of the situation you're in–I'm here. So is Aizawa-Sensei, and our class. I won't push you though." Katsuki glares at her.
"Are you going to tell those fuckers? Aizawa-Sensei?"
"No, unless you want me to. If you ever do want to tell them–our class or Aizawa-Sensei, I'll be there with you, if you want me to be. You're my friend, Bitchy Pomeranian. I care about you and your opinions, even the ones I think are pretty stupid," The yellow haired teenager says softly. Katsuki blinks at her in surprise before turning to watch the movie. Nariko smiles softly and moves her legs and sits next to the blonde to watch the movie.
"What is this movie anyway?"
"...Disney..."
"Who's ya favorite Disney Prince/Princess?"
"Prince Naveen, now shut the fuck up. You're making me miss the best part."
Nariko wakes up surrounded by warmth. That's really odd. She doesn't turn on her AC or her heating unless absolutely necessary. Something gently rises and falls below her and Nariko faintly hears a calming, but muffled rhythm.
"When'd I fall asleep?" Nariko slowly opens her eyes, seeing the sun barely peek over the buildings outside her windows. She hears a small sigh and looks up. She quickly wakes up.
"Oh fuck..." She mutters to herself, face bright red. Nariko was laying on top of Katsuki, head on his chest, arms wrapped around his–how the fuck is it so narrow?!–waist, and legs between his own. His arms were wrapped around her, loose but still secure.
Nariko slowly sits up a bit and glances around. Her phone was charging on the coffee table next to Katsuki's bag. She leans over to check the time. 5:43 a.m. She rubs her eyes and sighs heavily.
She's still so tired... Well, her alarm doesn't ring for 17 minutes...
"–bass Pikachu. G-get the fuck up!" Nariko wakes up a second time from Katsuki's stuttered hiss.
She makes a small noise from the back of her throat and hugs the blonde tighter. "...tired... shh..."
"Dumbass Pikachu, we'll be fucking late to school," Katsuki snarls, face bright red. Nariko whines softly before slowly lifting her head. The yellow haired teenager rubs one of her eyes and slowly sits up–sitting in Katsuki's lap.
"'m still sleepy," She says tiredly before stretching her back. She sighs softly when it pops and starts to stretch her sore arms.
"G-get the fuck off of–of me, you fucker!" Katsuki seems to turn even redder. "I'm–I'm not a fucking pillow!"
Nariko giggled sleepily and cups the blonde's cheeks. "Too cute, love." She doesn't notice Katsuki blinking at her in shock at her Spanish statement before she gets out of his lap.
"There's clean towels in the hallway bathroom, if ya wanna shower. Today's one of my food days, so I'll cook breakfast. Want anything in particular?" She doesn't receive an answer.
"Okay, surprise it is..." Nariko trails off into a yawn, running a hand through her hair.
"I can make chilaquiles... ooh~ or some enchiladas..." She hums, contemplating. "Or maybe pancakes or waffles... Do I have the ingredients for chilaquiles? Actually, I don't think I've enough time... Damn."
Nariko opens the cabinets and takes out a mixing bowl. Waffles it is then.
Hey! Hope you like the new chapter! Okay... So at that beginning of thinking of this idea... I was planning on two certain people to be with Nariko... Then I heard a song and those people changed...
Katsuki is one of the new people I plan to have Nariko with. There's another. This is most likely gonna be a poly relationship, but I love those.
Hope you all are enjoying the story so far! Bye.
