The light shown in through cracks in the shades over the bedroom window, a few small birds chirped outside as they played in the warm morning light. A squirrel chittered away at some disturbance somewhere down the street, making a noisy fuss. A car drove past, quiet yet the hum of its small engine could easily be picked up by my sensitive ears. All of these sounds assaulted me as I slowly woke up from a dreamless dark sleep, and I found myself rather confused by all of this. A soft sound of breathing was beside my ear, along with a steady beating of a heart. Warmth enveloped my body, and I slowly started to notice that I was curled against someone's side, and there were limbs wrapped around me holding me against the person's body. Opening my eyes, I saw a familiar tie with a crescent moon in front of my face, looking just a bit further up, a sleeping face belonging to Korosensei greeted my tired eyes.
'I'm….not dead...how? Did he…..save me?' I frowned, trying to figure out what had happened after I had blacked out back at the facility. Based off of the delicate stitchwork and bandaging, I was guessing that Lucien had a hand in this.
Movement beside me from Korosensei startled me, his tentacles slithering against my skin as he pulled me flush against him in a hug. "Good morning sleepy head." He chuckled softly, his hand sliding through my messy hair.
"Why am I still alive? I should be in Elysium right now…" I blushed as some of his tentacles were getting a bit too personal with their exploring.
"Anne...you're my student, I can't allow anything bad to happen to you while I am aware of it. It's my responsibility to keep you safe." One of his tentacles trailed down along my spine curiously, and I shivered lightly at the touch. "But...that's not the only reason….I care about you a lot Anne, and I couldn't let you go out there and get yourself killed. What you did was reckless, and I will not tolerate you doing anything like that ever again. Is that understood?"
I blushed lightly at the reprimand. "Yes, sir."
"Good. Now, would you like some breakfast? Your caretaker informed me that you would need to eat a lot more than usual in order for your body to heal properly." He chuckled, grinning as usual.
I blushed as my stomach growled loudly. "That sounds like a yes," Korosensei laughed, rising from the bed. He vanished into the kitchen. The sounds and smells of bacon and eggs reached me, making my stomach growl again. I blushed even worse, burying my face beneath a pillow. It wasn't long before Korosensei came back and removed the pillow from my face, carefully sitting me upright on the bed and using the pillow to help support my back. I smiled softly.
"Thanks…" I mumbled, a bit embarrassed about needing his help. He set a tray down on my lap as he sat down beside me.
"Can you eat on your own or do you need help?"
"I can manage on my own, thanks though." I blushed red, taking a bit of the bacon and egg sandwich he made for me. He chuckled softly, and I felt one of his tentacles wrap around my waist. I quickly finished the sandwich and drank the apple juice that came with it. As soon as the tray was empty, he picked it up and disappeared into the kitchen with it, returning moments later to my side. I blushed lightly as he pulled me to his side, his tentacles wrapping around me. I only now noticed that I was only wearing underwear and a skimpy top, my breasts easily seen through the top of my shirt. "Eek! Why am I dressed like this?!" I glared at him accusingly, and he blushed red.
"Um, uh, I changed your outfit so that I could better take care of your bandages to change them. This was the only outfit I found that suited that purpose." He looked away, his face glowing pink.
"Liar...You could easily have chosen a top that covered me properly, yet you didn't. Pervert!" I swatted at him playfully, and he flailed about, protesting.
"I am no such thing! Take that back!" I giggled as he started tickling me, and I screamed out in laughter, falling onto my side.
"No~ I'm ticklish!" I protested, and he started chuckling with amusement.
"Then say you're sorry for calling me a pervert~" His tentacles were very adept at finding all of my ticklish spots, going for the soles of my feet and along my ribs.
"Ok Ok~! I'm sorry for calling you a pervert!" I gasped out between fits of laughter.
"Hehehe." He chuckled, nuzzling my neck as he pulled me against his warm and squishy body.
I blushed red, squirming a bit in his grasp. He held me even tighter, though not enough to hurt me, it was still enough to hold me still. "Hehe, someone seems bothered~" He chuckled against my ear, and I growled at him.
"Haven't you ever heard of personal space?" I grumbled irritably. Korosensei giggled, not moving.
"I have, but I really don't care right now," he teased. "It's so nice being able to be close to you."
"That only confirms your pervy nature….." I grumbled under my breath, crossing my arms as I rolled over so my back was to him.
"Oh come on now! You don't gotta be so mean about it…" He pouted, tentacles squirming against my skin. I blushed red, burying my face in a pillow.
"Cut it out, I am still injured you know," I growled, and he froze, realizing that his squirming around was probably rubbing against numerous wounds.
"IM SORRY!" He freaked, trying to pull back. I grabbed his hands and held him in place, nuzzling one of them.
"I was just warning you to be careful, not that you were hurting me. Take it easy you big goofball." I giggled amused by his adorable behavior. He chuckled nervously, rubbing the back of his head with a hand.
"Eheheh, my apologies."
I smiled warmly, turning around to face him again. I gently cupped his face, and he immediately blushed pink as I pulled him down, giving him a quick kiss on the cheek. I watched as his entire body turned pink as I laid my head no his chest, nuzzling against his robes happily.
"Uhh, ahh.." He stammered, speechless. I giggled softly, closing my eyes again.
"I love you Korosensei," I mumbled tiredly, and felt a thrill of joy at his next words.
"I love you too Anne." His tentacles wrapped around me, holding me against his warm body as I drifted off to sleep again.
