"you're seriously the most gorgeous person i've ever seen. i love you (f/n)."

"i.. love you too."

"i know you do. that's why we'll be together forever."

"huh? wait a minute.."

my eyes look over to the right and see him sitting, with this hands wrapped around my waist tightly. his grip felt like daggers on my skin.

"kaede? no.. this can't be right i-"

"i told you that you'd come running back to me. we belong together my sugar plum." his lips smash onto mine and-

*beep* *beep*

"NO-"

i pant heavily and try to regain my breath as the sweat sinks into my skin. i look around and sigh in relief. thankfully i was only dreaming. i'd lost all energy to get out of bed after the catastrophe from last night, i was 100% sure tsukki would never speak to me again. just to confirm my overthinking thoughts, i decided to check my messages.

blondie🥱

it's ok.

2am? that's awfully late, i hope i didn't make him stay up all night worrying. tons of thoughts run through my head but i try my best to ignore them all. as i finally push myself out of the bed, i remember the message i'd received from the "unknown number" last night, which was obviously kaede. it couldn't have been anyone else, he's the only creepy stalker in my life.

"god i hate everything and everyone.." i mutter to myself as i force myself to quickly do my morning routine.

-at breakfast-

my father and i sit beside each other at the dining table and the tension was incredibly awkward. neither of us said a word and ate in complete silence, which was the best choice as neither of us had wanted to say anything to each other. i finish up my toast and get ready to leave my house when my father finally speaks up.

"you will return home before your curfew, do not forget. anymore of this ridiculousness will not be tolerated in my household. this is all for your own good." he says in a stern voice.

i nod and leave the house in a gloomy mood. it feels like someone put a rain cloud right over my head and only mine. i check my phone and realize i'd left my house much earlier than usual today, the best possible choice because i wouldn't have to face tsukki. the wind blows colder than usual and i start to shiver slightly. i start to regret leaving the house in such a rush i'd left my jacket. i continue walking as the light breeze forms into a much harsh, stronger current. my whole entire body feels paralyzed as the bitter cold hits everywhere, when suddenly the warmth of a fuzzy jacket is wrapped around me.

"it's.. cold out." a comfortingly familiar voice speaks.

"ah- tsukishima.. how's your morning?" i awkwardly ask as my eyes avoid meeting with his. i stare down at my sneakers and continue walking at a much faster pace.

"..are you upset with me?"

i take a moment to just stare at his downcast expression.

"of course not, i have no reason to be." i reassure him, "i should be the one asking you that."

he responds with a nod.

we continue walking in the calm silence to school, both of us quietly enjoying each other's company. it was these moments that made me feel truly at peace but mainly because i was with tsukki. there was something about his cold self that made me feel warm inside. i really hope he felt the same way.

-at school-

"hey! how did your weekend go?" yachi asks me with a cheerful tone.

"good, i went out with friends." i respond to her as i stare at tsukki.

"sounds like fun! who are you staring at-" i cover her mouth as she gasps loudly. i give her a glare and she nods.

"no way! i knew it was going to happen eventually i mean cmon we could all see the tension happeningandyoutwoarealwaystogether-" she blabbers on in a whispery voice as i try my hardest to hold in my laughter.

"you just can't tell anyone."

anyways hi lol 😊😊
