Author Note: I said this was completed and was a one-shot, but I really can't help but add just one more super short chapter. Enjoy~
"Maki-chan you dumbass. How do you light a granola bar on fire? Why are you so irresponsible?!" Nico examined Maki's granola bar, charred to crisp with black surrounding the inedible treat. Only half an hour in and something lit into flames. It was amazing, really. Such a skillful person being so.. inept at being somewhat normal. "It's not that I'm irresponsible.." Maki started, twirling locks of hair absently, thinking of how to describe the situation. What else could she possibly say when she left her snack on the stove while it was still on? And on high too?
"Then how do you explain every food you try to cook being burnt? And in this case, every food you don't consume in under 5 minutes?"
There was a delayed response. "It's what you call being literally hot." Nico's forehead collided with her hand, causing a mark to appear. "Are you kidding me? Does that explain why Eli's food is always cold and undercooked? Because she's so damn cool?" Nico meant to say cold, but that wasn't something she should say to her best friend. That's what Maki is for.
The mentioned blonde walked in on Nico saying this, forming an awkward atmosphere. "...Why thank you?.." Eli said, coming close to whispering. With that said, Eli walked right back out, her hair swaying mockingly at Nico. Frankly, the girl didn't know whether to take it as a compliment or an insult.
"I guess so. But I don't know about you; your food is always perfect and all but..." Maki pointed to Nico, moving her arm up and down her form. "This thing.." after the fifth time her arm came up, Nico smacked it down hard, looking up to scowl at her supposed student. "Shut up and clean this mess. Tell Umi I quit."
Nico stomped out of her house, halting when she heard Maki yell, "But you live here!"
"You guys have a week to find a new house before I kick your ass out!" Nico yelled back. Where was she going? Probably somewhere to go cry about Maki's life. Leave it to hapless Maki to make everyone tear up at her stupidity.
