Kon'nichiwa, Senpai! I wrote a new chapter! (YAY) ^.^ I want to thank you guys for reading this far, and thanks for supporting me! I really appreciate it! I hope you enjoy! Jaa, Matane!
Btw: There's mention of Fujisaki in the very beginning.. Just a warning. If you don't know him, I think It's still fine, probably. Thought I should mention it just in case.. :)
CHAPTER 10
"Why do you have to be here again? Last I checked, you weren't invited." Hiyori complained grumpily, shuffling down the stairs from her bedroom. "It's just like any other night, I'll be fine."
Yato quickly followed behind. "Don't be rude! I'm here to protect you and your friends, okay? Who knows when that old fart could show up again.." he stated.
"Yato, I doubt he'd just pop up out of nowhere when my friends and I are-"
Interrupting her thought, the sound of the doorbell rang throughout the house. Hiyori slid over over the smooth, polished floor and opened the door, excitedly greeting her friends.
"Ami-chan! Yama-chan! Come on in!"
"Yay.. Finally a night with you, Hiyori!" Yama crashed through the doors, pulling Hiyori into a bear-hug.
"Thanks for letting us stay over tonight, Hiyori." Ami greeted politely.
"Heh.. No problem!…" Hiyori chuckled nervously in response. "It'll all be fine, as long as Yato doesn't do any of his stupid shenanigans.."
As Yama and Ami removed their shoes at the doorstep, Hiyori turned her head to pierce her eyes threateningly at Yato. When he caught glimpse of her stare, a shiver traveled down his spine making his hairs stand up on end. Hiyori released her cold glare and immediately switched back to her innocent smile.
"Come on girls, Let's go get the bedding situated."
"Geez, what the hell?" Yato wondered, keeping his distance, yet still following as they pranced up the staircase, one step at a time into Hiyori's room.
:::
"Wow, it smells so good in here, as always.." Yama twirled her body around in the middle of the room. "Hiyori, how do you keep your room so clean?" she asked, her body now still.
"Because she actually CLEANS it, Yama…" Ami rolled her eyes.
"Yeah, Yeah… That makes sense."
As Hiyori stood giggling with her classmates, Yato lurched past to Hiyori's bed, hopping on top of it, attentively watching the things around them.
After unfurling her futon, Yama walked over to her overnight bag on the floor, pulling out her pajamas, as Ami did the same.
"You know, Hiyori.." Ami began, removing her shirt. "I've been worrying about you lately.. You've become seemingly… different.. I want you to know that if you ever want to talk about anyth-"
As Hiyori listened to Ami's voice, she realized Yato was still in the room. Starting to freak out, she swung her head over to see Yato sitting wide-eyed and motionless as Yama took a seat on the side of Hiyori's bed, right in front of him, beginning to take her blouse off as well.
Trying not to draw attention to herself, she tried to gesture towards Yato to close his eyes, but he didn't even blink. It was as if he was frozen solid. Now she started to really freak out. To get his attention, she hastily picked up a nearby pillow and threw it at his face with a thump, triggering him to finally shut his eyes.
Ami stopped talking as she and Yama moved their eyes to where the pillow was thrown, then looked at Hiyori, raising an eyebrow.
"I thought I saw a bug on the wall, but I was wrong.. Sorry please continue." she explained, calmly keeping her composure.
"Okay…. That's like exactly what I'm talking about.." Ami stated.
"How about you guys just go change in the bathroom, okay?" she responded hastily.
They stared back at Hiyori, confused, until finally, Yama simply shrugged, pulling Ami out of the room. "Whatever makes you comfortable, Hiyori.." she snickered.
Alleviated that they had left the room, Hiyori let out a sigh of relief as she sat herself beside Yato. She glanced over at him peeking his eyes open to smile at her. Almost immediately, Hiyori began to blush and groaned as she hid her head in her arms. Yato wrapped his around her and started to chuckle.
"What's so funny?" she asked.
"You…"
"Shut up.." she grumbled, pushing his embrace away.
"You're so cute, Hiyori…" He voiced playfully, stroking her hair. "I know why you did it…" he said, gripping her waist and pulling her into his lap. "Why you frantically threw a pillow at me... You wanted to preserve my eyes, right?"
Hiyori didn't acknowledge.
"Yep… You did it because you want to be the first girl I see undress.."
Hiyori's face grew ablaze. "That's not it, you idiot!" she cried, scratching out of his grip.
"Ow Ow Ow… HEY? WHAT GIVES?"
"YOU PERVERT!" she yelled, throwing pillows at him.
"HEY STOP IT! SHEESH, CALM THE HELL DOWN!"
"SHUT UP, YOU STUPID PEDO!"
"WHAT THE- WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? IM NO PEDOFILE!"
"OH YEAH? HOW OLD AM I, AND HOW OLD ARE YOUUU? HUH? HOW OLD? YOU HOMELESS FLUFFY BUM SWEAT! I DOUBT YOU'RE EVEN A REAL GOD! AND YOU'RE DEFINITELY NOT A GOD OF FORTUNE, YOU SWEATY HANDED, SHINKI ABUSING, YEN SNIFFING BUTTWIPE!"
"HEY! TONE IT DOWN, MEANIE!"
As Hiyori threw her last pillow, she stood for a moment, gasping for air. Looking up, she saw Yato still lying down, panting, with one side of his jacket hanging over his shoulder, gently gazing at Hiyori with a warm smile.
"WHAT ARE YOU THINKING ABOUT, YOU PERV? STOP LOOKIN AT ME LIKE THAT!" she hoisted herself up on the bed and positioned herself on top of him, smacking his chest repeatedly.
"OW STOP IT!" he grabbed her hands, and pushed her over on her back, restraining her from hitting him any further.
"LEMME GO, YOU JERK!" Hiyori gasped for air as she struggled to get away. "UGH, HOW MUCH DO YOU WEIGH? YOU'RE CRUSHING ME!"
"Hiyori, calm down.." he whispered, calmly pulling her arms over her head.
"NO! NOW LET ME GO!"
"You're being way to loud…" he reminded softly.
Suddenly, Hiyori stopped resisting. She slowly turned her head to the side to see Ami and Yama staring through the doorway.
"Please tell me they don't see him. Please tell me they don't see him. Please tell me they don't-"
"Poor thing.. Always falling asleep like this…" Ami sighed, walking over to Hiyori's human body, lying on the floor. She and Yama picked her up, and carried her to the bed.
Hiyori hastily squeezed out from under Yato, and hopped out of the bed, pulling him too.
"Aww, Hiyori.. I was really liking that position.." He grinned mischievously, pulling her towards him.
"GAH! SHUT UP YOU DEGENERATE GOD!" She cried, wiggling out of his grip.
"Rude.." He simply stated, brushing the wrinkles out of his jacket. "I was just playing, Hiyori.. Don't be so heartless.." he pouted, reaching for her again.
"You shouldn't play like that…" she fussed, this time allowing him to embrace her.
"Sorry.." he said mockingly.
"I don't forgive you."
Yato turned her body around to face him. "I'm truly sorry for making you feel uncomfortable.." he apologized, wholeheartedly.
Hiyori shifted her eyes to the floor and started to twitch nervously. "It's okay…" she muttered through her teeth.
A sly smile suddenly crept upon his face. "Although, I can't lie to you…" He leaned in to the side of her cheek to whisper into her ear. He hesitated for a moment to allow Hiyori's face to become flushed before saying, "I have dirty thoughts about you, Hiyori.."
Hiyori instantly shoved him away as her face painted bright red. "I DON'T NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THAT!" she fretted, as her breathing grew heavy.
Yato smiled warmly as Hiyori started twiddling her fingers nervously, not even glancing up at him. "Why would you say something like that to a girl? I think that's completely inappropriate.. Next time, think before you act.. You don't realize how that made me feel, do you? I don't want you saying anything like that to me aga-"
Yato interrupted her ranting by impulsively pulling her close and brushing his lips on hers.
"I love you, Hiyori." he voiced passionately.
Hiyori stumbled in his arms, as if she was drunk from the sudden kiss. "Sh.. shut up.." she grumbled, enveloping herself into his jacket.
They stood for a moment quietly listening to the background noise of Ami and Yama conversing about Hiyori.
"You forgot about your friends.." he chuckled.
"I blame you…"
