Devastated and exhausted, you were still mourning losing Mitsuba a second time. You refused to get out of bed, and only did when Teru asked you to because your grades were a mess. Kou decided to show you the photos Mitsuba had took before. The incident. You tried spending most of your time with Yokoo and Satou, who didn’t really know why you were upset but still tried to comfort you. After the you did your part of helping them get rid of the hands, you thought you were done with supernaturals for the day. But when Kou dragged you off saying Yashiro had gone missing, and you needed to enter some boundary and he wanted you there. You kind of had to tag along. But unexpectedly, you find someone there.
Warnings: Cursing, reader feeling like shit (‘m sorry about that), comforting from Yokoo and Satou, Kou also sorta feeling like shit, your aunt trying to help you out of bed but still keep you safe, some angst again, etc,.
(A/N) : Last chapter of Act I!! Hope you enjoy it. I’ve been feeling like absolute shit these past few days so writing this to distract myself has made me feel so much better. I’m pretty sure this is proofread but if there’s anything wrong with it lmk!!
Prev. << Next end of Act I
You couldn’t bring yourself to get out of bed, not for anything. Not even after the countless times Yokoo and Satou begged you to come, not after Yashiro came over to try and get you up, not even after your aunt talked to you about it.
You just couldn’t.
You’d spent more nights crying than you could ever count, and kept thinking back to that moment. The squelching noise, that scream. It all haunted you like there was no tomorrow.
Your aunt had to bring you in food, and make sure you actually ate it. She sat with you while you cried about it, and she hugged you through it. She even called in sick from work to stay at home just for a day to comfort you.
“Shhh.. hey it’s okay.” She tried to reassure for the nth time this day.
You didn’t seem to be getting better.
“It’s not okay! There should’ve been something I could’ve done! Something I didn’t do.” You cried into your pillow, eyes red and puffy from all your tears.
She pursed her lips, not knowing what to do to comfort you. Nothing seemed to help. All she could do was make sure you ate and drink a little water. And of course make sure you didn’t do anything stupid, she was still a bit paranoid from what happened.
Out of no where, there was a knock on the door.
“Ah.. I’ll go get it.” She said, giving you one last pitiful glance before heading downstairs.
“Hey is (Y/N) here?” You heard someone say.
“Yeah she’s upstairs in her room.” Your aunt replied.
“Okay thank you.” They answered.
You heard footsteps, and groaned.
“Look Yokoo, I already said I don’t want to get up—“
“It’s not Yokoo.” Teru chuckled.
He walked over to your bed and sat with you.
“You doing okay? You and Kou both seem really out of it.” He asked, moving his hand to rub soothing circles in your back.
“No.” Was all you could answer, knowing how he felt about spirits you knew you probably shouldn’t tell him why.
“Listen, you need to come back to school. Your grades are plummeting so bad right now, and your friends miss you a lot.” Teru explained, making you lightly chuckle.
“Great, thanks so much for adding more stress! I thought it was impossible but somehow you did.” You answered sarcastically with a sigh.
He only playfully rolled his eyes, “Look, if it helps anything—I’ll help you with your missing work.”
“Just please come back to school? We all miss you a lot. And I think both you and Kou could use some support.” He pleaded, his pretty blue eyes sparkled with determination to get you out of bed.
You groaned, falling back onto your bed.
“I don’t know..” you mumbled.
“I won’t try to exorcise Hanako for..” he paused “a few days.”
You snorted, shaking your head with a fond smile.
“Deal.”
He smiled.
“Okay. It’s only 9:20, so you still have time to get to school. Even if it’s late, don’t worry I’ll excuse you.” He assured, “so get ready and I’ll walk you to school.”
You sighed as you got out of bed, and he went to wait downstairs for you.
You got dressed, and went into the bathroom to wash your face and do the rest of your skincare routine so you didn’t look like you’d been crying so much, and after you were satisfied that you didn’t look like a total mess as bad, you walked downstairs to find Teru.
He was sitting on the couch, just scrolling around on his phone. You went to go out on your shoes, and swung your backpack over your shoulder. He turned his phone off and stood up.
“You ready?” He asked.
“Yeah.”
.
.
Teru walked you into the middle school divison, and quickly took you with him to the student council room.
“Hang on, wait one second let me just do something real quick.” He hummed, unlocking his computer and opened what seemed to be an attendance sheet and marked your name off as ‘excused tardy’.
“Okay, ‘m gonna go drop you off at class and tell the teacher that you were late cause of my fault.” He explained, already leading you towards your second period class.
He opened the door for you and allowed you in, and went to go whisper something to the teacher. Yokoo looked at you excitedly, and Satou smiled upon seeing you. You didn’t see Kou in his seat, so you assumed he was out with Hanako and Yashiro.
“What made you feel like getting up out of bed?” Yokoo asked curiously.
“Are you hungry? I have some sweets with me.” Satou asked, digging around in his backpack to look for said sweets.
“Teru dragged me out of bed.” You exaggerated with a sigh, leaning against Yokoo dramatically.
Satou just shook his head with a smile, and Yokoo played along pretending to catch you.
“Well did you sleep good at least?” Yokoo asked.
You paused for a moment.
“..Definitely.”
“Liar.” Satou sighed “Here, have some.” He said, offering you some of his sweets.
You took a few, thanking Satou.
“You seemed pretty down enough to not come to school for a few days.. you hadn’t been that down since Mitsuba—“ Yokoo stopped himself.
“Oh god, I’m so sorry.” He winced apologetically, realizing what he just brought up.
You pursed your lips, but you couldn’t get mad at Yokoo. You knew he and Satou were only worried and meant no harm.
“It’s fine, but can someone catch me up on what we’re learning? I’m a little lost.” You chuckled nervously, trying lighten up the mood—trying to forget about Mitsuba.
“Yeah, no problem!” Yokoo chirped.
Yokoo and Satou explained the lesson for you, letting you copy down their notes so you wouldn’t fall too behind. You groaned as you leaned back in your seat, already hating how much you missed in your absence.
“Where’s Kou by the way?” You asked, sitting back up after a few more moments.
“Oh him? All he said is he’d be busy, I don’t think he’s been in class at all.” Satou hummed.
“You should probably go see him, he didn’t look too good.” Yokoo suggested, kicking his feet lightly.
“I will after class.”
.
.
The bell had long since rung, and kids rushed out to their next class. Yokoo and Satou had said their goodbyes and told you they’d see you at lunch, so you were trying to get your stuff altogether.
“Don’t think of running off with those cockroaches.” Teru sighed as he waited by the door for you.
You jumped a bit, not really expecting him to wait for you after class.
“They aren’t cockroaches..” you mumbled, slinging your backpack over your shoulder and he gave you a look that said ‘are you sure about that?’.
You sighed, “Okay, maybe some are. But they aren’t all.” you tried to explain.
You paused, biting your lip a bit “But I’m not gonna do anything having to do with the supernatural anytime soon, so I won’t run off.”
Teru gave you a satisfied smile.
“Why are you even here? Are you going to make sure I don’t skip off to Hanako and the others or?” You trailed off.
“No,” Teru denied “I was actually here to pick you up.”
“I talked to the teachers and let them know you’d be with me for the rest of the day,” he hummed.
“Working on your missing assignments.”
You groaned as you made your way towards the door, looking at Teru with pleading eyes as if it would convince him to just let you go with the others. He smiled and shook his head fondly, leading you towards the student council room.
“Oh and by the way,” he said opening the door for you “I let Kou know you’re here so I’m sure he’ll stop by soon.”
“Soon like now?” Kou asked as he entered the student council room.
“I thought you’d stop by later but yeah, soon.” Teru confirmed with a hum.
“Can I borrow (Y/N)?” Kou asked, leaning against the doorframe.
“For what?” Teru asked.
“Something.” Was all Kou managed to mutter.
“No, sorry. After she finishes at least half of this work,” Teru emphasized, referring to the small stack of packets and papers that you thought to be your missing assignments “then you can take her for a bit.”
You groaned, flopping down on the seat in front of Teri’s desk.
“So mean.” Kou mumbled with a pout, walking out.
“So,” Teru cleared his throat, dropping a small stack of papers in front of you “let’s get started.”
You pouted with a whine, letting your head fall forward and hitting the desk in frustration.
.
.
The bell had rung a fourth time since you’ve gotten there, and it was now time for lunch.
“Well, your a little bit close to halfway done.” Teru mumbled holding up a pinch of the paperwork, holding it up to examine it.
Kou burst through the door, swinging it open.
“It’s lunch time now, and I’m pretty sure (Y/N)’s hungry.” Kou said, trying to indirectly hint if it was okay to borrow you now.
“Go ahead but be back right after.” Teru instructed, and you just pouted with a nod.
“Great,” Kou mumbled, grabbing hold of your wrist “will definitely—“ he sprinted out with you “not.”
Kou laughed a bit, but when he noticed you didn’t seem to even smile his expression dropped.
He came to a stop, at the staircase leading up to the roof, sitting down on a bench nearby.
“You doing okay?” Kou asked.
“Not really.” You muttered, sitting by him.
“Well I have something to show you.” Kou smiled, bringing something from his backpack’s front pocket.
He took it out gingerly, as if it was the most fragilest of glass and would break with even the slightest wrong look.
They were Mitsuba’s developed pictures.
“I had them printed out as soon as I could..” he whispered, though he didn’t know why if it was just the two of you “I already looked at them last night, but—“ his voice cracked a bit as he chuckled lightly “I thought you might want to see them too.”
He carefully handed the small stack of photos to you, and you—just as carefully—took them.
There were many pictures.
Some were meant to be funny, and others were genuinely beautiful.
Like when Kou got attacked by the mother cat when he tried grabbing one of it’s kitten’s. Or when Mitsuba took that photo of Kou while he was standing on his shoulders.
There were also some like the birds nest, and of some he took while in the school garden. But the one that made you tear up—
Was the one he took of you and Kou.
You grit your teeth in frustration, in anger—thinking back to that moment.
“I’ll make that asshole pay one way or another.” You say through a choked out sob.
Kou looked at you with a solemn face, pursing his lips before placing a comforting hand on your shoulder “And I’ll be there to help you when you do.”
You looked at him, and he looked at you. And for the first time since you both had met, you didn’t laugh at the eye contact. Instead, your eyes welled up with regretful tears, tears of grievance at its finest.
“Oh, there you two are!” Yokoo exclaimed gleefully, practically skipping towards you both as Satou trailed behind him.
“What’re you two weirdo’s doing?” Satou joked, sitting beside you as Yokoo sat on the other side of Kou.
Yokoo shot him a glare after realizing you and Kou were on the verge of tears, and Satou immediately took the hint that now wasn’t the time for that.
“Wanna tell us what’s going on?” Satou finally said after a few moments of silence.
Yokoo pursed his lips when he got no answer from either of you, so he spoke up too.
“Look, whatever you both are going through. You can tell us, you know that right?” Yokoo asked, but continued after still the both of you didn’t answer “Just know we’re here for you. Whatever you guys are going through, we’ll get through it altogether.” he looked over at Satou “Right, Satou?”
“Yeah of course. We’re all friends, and as friends we have to look out for each other.” Satou agreed with a hum.
There was a few more seconds of silence before anyone spoke again.
“You ever know that feeling…” you finally managed to croak out after a while longer “when you thought you finally found something you lost a long while ago, someon—“ you stopped yourself before continuing “something very special to you, and then for someone to just. Snatch it out of your hands?”
Kou lightly chuckled, but it came out sadder than he intended “And when you actually got to see another side of a person you just met, and got to know them better—only for them to disappear the next second?”
Satou and Yokoo exchanged glances, as if they were trying to communicate with each other to see what you guys meant by that. But they found themselves empty minded.
“I don’t necessarily understand,” Yokoo started, already hugging Kou to provide some sort of comfort “but I know whatever it is. It’s really tough for you to be feeling like this.”
“Yeah,” Satou confirmed, hugging you too, connecting with Yokoo to form a group hug “we’re your friends. And as your friends we wanna tell you that you don’t have to go through this alone.”
And just then, you broke down in tears, babbling about how you lost someone so special to you a second time and this time you’ll never get them back. Kou followed soon after, except he just silently cried.
“Shhh.. there, there.” Yokoo whispered “Let it all out.”
The two boys hugged you both as you cried, comforting you in silence.
“God you guys are the best.” You hiccuped with a small chuckle that came out more as a sob.
Satou smiled, and Yokoo just replied “We know.”
.
.
After a while longer, the bell rang again. You, Satou, Kou, and Yokoo had been talking, the two mostly trying to distract you guys from crying—trying to get a smile out of you.
From around the corner, Teru came and you groaned.
“C’mon, it’s time to get back to your missing work.” Teru hummed, leaning against the wall as he waited for you to get up.
You pouted, but got up and said your goodbyes.
“You didn’t actually eat,” Teru began as you started walking back to the student council room “did you?”
And as if on cue, your stomach rumbled, and you flushed out of embarrassment. Teru sighed, turning in a different direction.
“Let’s get you something to eat.. I think I might have a spare lunch in the office.” Teru explained.
And he did, luckily for you. After taking one bite, you almost immediately recognized it as Kou’s cooking—and practically gobbled up the rest of it.
“Woah, slow down your going to end up choking.” Teru laughed.
“But it’s Kou’s cooking!” You pouted, taking another bite “You could never.”
“Okay that was ONE time.” Teru groaned, remembering how he nearly burnt down their kitchen.
“Yeah, that ‘ONE’ time was a near death experience for me.” You sighed dramatically, making Teru smile.
“It’s good to see your somewhat better now.” He hummed.
“What do you mean?” You asked, taking one last bite of the delicious lunch Kou prepared.
“I mean, your not as gloomy right now as you were earlier.” He smiled, ruffling your hair.
You swatted his hands away from your hair, “Must’ve been the magic of Kou’s cooking.”
“Must’ve.” Teru agreed, “Now that I know you won’t be complaining about an empty stomach,” he dropped the rest of your missing assignments in front of you “we can finish this.”
“So mean to me.”
.
.
For the next few days you tried to get over it. But I mean, you couldn’t, really. If you thought losing someone the first time was hard, imagine losing them a second time. Yokoo and Satou tried to help too, they kept you busy, and Yokoo even found out some way to let you in his soccer practice to ‘blow off some steam’ as he put it.
“God, I don’t understand how you’re able to do this for what?” You asked, taking a sip from the water bottle Yokoo had given you, to which he replied “About an hour and a half.”
“I can’t even last ten minutes.” You chuckled lightly.
“But you’re distracted, right?” He asked, gently nudging you with his shoulder.
You smiled, “I am actually.”
He smiled right back, “Then that’s all that matters.”
“Now c’mon, let’s go back to practice—“ Yokoo got up and beckoned you towards him, when Kou came along “Sorry Yokoo but I REALLY need to borrow. (Y/N) for a bit.”
“Okay, see you later then (Y/N).” Yokoo exclaimed as he ran back to the rest of his teammates.
“See ya!” You shouted after him.
“What is it?” You asked, turning around to Kou.
“There’s a bunch of hands, just popping around everywhere.” Kou explained “Hanako suggested we play with them so they’ll go away, so far it’s worked.”
“What is that have to do with me?” You sighed.
Kou gave you a playfully glare, rolling his eyes fondly.
“We could use the extra hands.” He hummed, making you chuckle a bit.
“Don’t you already have a lot?” You joked. “Need more hands to get rid of the extra hands.” You snorted.
“Well will you help?” Kou asked, he paused before adding “I know you’re trying to take a break from anything supernatural right now but we could use the help.”
You thought about it for a second, but gave in when you saw the pleading look in his eyes.
“Fine.” You sighed, making Kou cheer.
.
.
“That should be the last of them!” Hanako exclaimed, jumping around in the air excitedly.
“Whew.” You say, slumping against one of the bathroom stall doors.
Out of no where, a hand appeared from the bathroom mirror, and Yashiro approached it.
“Just one left!” Yashiro informed, looking back at it.
“That actually wore me out..” Hanako whined, making you chuckle “one of those guys hit me.”
You ‘coughed’, “Sounds like a major skill issue.” which earned you a playful glare from Hanako.
“Most of the pictures are all cleaned up too.” Kou confirmed, flipping through the yearbook.
“Wait..” Kou paused “now that I look at it.. you’re wearing a different uniform in this picture.”
“That’s from last year!” Yashiro chirped, looking over Kou’s shoulder to see better “When I was in middle school.”
“Cool!” Kou exclaimed.
“But wow,” he then continued “these are really good pictures.”
“Yeah! We had a kid from the photography club take them,” Yashiro hummed “I’m pretty sure his name should be on the last page.”
You and Kou gave each other a hesitant look, and you walked over to check too. And there it was.
Mitsuba Sousuke.
Out of no where, the hand from the mirror grabbed Yashiro’s wrist, and she hummed “What is it?”
“Have you decided what you want to pl—“ the hand cut her off, a mouth morphed onto its figure.
“Come to this side.”
It began to drag her inside the mirror.
“Yashiro!” Both Hanako and Kou panicked.
“Hanako!” Yashiro managed to yelp out.
Said ghost boy quickly got up “Grab my—“ but it was too late, his fingers just barely skimmed hers as she was sucked into the mirror like some type of portal.
“She’s…” Kou paused.
“gone.” I mumbled, and as if on cue—a droplet of water fell from the sink faucet.
Panicked, Kou got up and shouted “I’m coming Yashiro!” As he tried to force himself through the mirror.
“Kid! Stop it kid! Bad kid!” Hanako yelled, grabbing Kou from under his arms to pull him away from the mirror, making you giggle a bit at the way Hanako was referring to Kou as ‘kid’ “Don’t break the mirror!”
“That’s a boundary..” Hanako began to explain “specifically number 3’s”
“School mystery number three?” Kou asked.
“Yes.” Hanako muttered in agreement.
“I mean there’s a really only one supernatural mirror leading to this place—“ Hanako got interrupted.
“The hell of mirrors, right?” You asked “I don’t know how I know that but I do.”
“Yeah, so it has to be this one.” Hanako informed before sighing “I would like to go with her immediately but..” he paused.
“To put it simply, when you go into number 3’s boundary it attacks you.. with things you don’t want to see. Things you’re afraid of.” He looked at you both before continuing “In other words, the strength of the boundary changes based on who’s inside. If I’m not careful, I could make it stronger just by going I’m there.”
But you and Kou weren’t really paying attention, you were both looking at the yearbook Mitsuba had taken pictures for.
“Hey have you two been listening to me at all?” Hanako whined, grabbing onto your shoulders.
In a panic, Kou shut the book at faced him “You were telling us about how filthy your mind is sir!”
That alone made you burst into laughter as Hanako stared in disbelief, then muttered “Yeah well.. I won’t deny that.”
“We have to figure out what to do and fast.” Kou sighed, you felt bad seeing him look so worried for Yashiro’s safety.
“Yeah.” Hanako mumbled.
“Because number 3’s approach is most likely going to depend on what Yashiro is afraid of.” You mumbled, earning a shocked glance from Hanako which turned into a smirk.
“Hey you’re a quick learner aren’t you?” He teased “You caught on faster than Mr. Exorcist here.”
“I know you said you didn’t want anything to do with the supernatural or ghosts for a while, but I think Mr. Tsuchigomori might know something.” Hanako rambled.
“So can you please help?” They asked.
“Please?” Kou begged “For your favorite exorcist.”
“And your favorite apparition.” Hanako added with a sly grin.
“Who said you two were my favorites?” You asked sarcastically, but still smiled.
“Alright fine, but if he doesn’t know something I won’t be helping out.” You finally gave in.
Hanako and Kou both cheered, jumping around like children anxious to go trick-or-treating on Halloween.
.
.
Yashiro’s yelp seemed to echo aimlessly around the dimly lit room, hands began to sprout from the floor. She winced as she was met with something, something wet.
“Water!” She panicked, scrambling to her feet.
Little scale-like pieces began to emerge on her soft skin as she went on to see where she was at, or more so who’s boundary she was in.
Thump, thump, thump.
Footsteps? She thought, swiftly turning her head in panic that something dangerous might’ve been lingering in the dark.
“Hello?” she called, trying to see what she could in the dark room.
She saw a figure, one she thought was feminine, but upon closer examination she found it was a boy. More so, a middle school boy. His eyes looked a bit sunken, as the hands surrounded him. He tilted his head up, to look at her.
“Who are you?” She asked, tilting her head as well to get a better view of him.
Yashiro had a million questions running through her head, who was this boy? Was he a ghost? What’s he doing here? She was dragged out of her trance when said boy was towering over her.
Now that he was closer, Yashiro realized how he looked and a blush covered her face. His rosy eyes startled silently at her, before speaking up.
“You..” he called.
“Yes?” Yashiro panicked, standing up straight.
The boy looked left, then right, before sighing. His once innocent look was replaced with a taunting smirk.
“..have pretty fat ankles, huh?”
Yashiro froze in place, a bit dumbfounded that someone so adorable would say something so vulgar.
The boy sighed, crossing his arms.
“Aww, I thought someone was finally here to help me, but it’s just some horseradish..”
“I-I’m not a horseradish!” Yashiro retorted defensively with a pout.
“Yeah yeah whatever.” Mitsuba sighed.
Yashiro kept asking questions, and Mitsuba didn’t have any intention to answer much or any of them, so he walked to the door at the end of the corridor and opened it.
He then walked over to Yashiro and grabbed her by the little accessories on her belt. “This way.” He said.
“This is one of the boundary’s of the seven mysteries..” he explained after a while “the hell of mirrors.”
“Or..” he paused, stopping in his tracks to look at Yashiro with an unsure look “I guess that’s it’s name.”
“But that’s all I know.”
Yashiro looked around in amazement, everywhere she turned there were mirrors of different shapes, sizes, colors, and designs. But there was one thing they all had in common.
They all had an eerie feeling to it, it sent shivers down Yashiro’s spine.
“There’re mirrors.. everywhere.” She mumbled in awe.
“Yeah, I can see that Ms. Obvious.” Mitsuba sighed, playfully rolling his eyes.
But Yashiro wasn’t paying enough attention to care, she was too busy thinking.
“I’m Mitsuba.”
Yashiro made a small ‘huh?’ noise before turning to look at him.
“I’m stuck here and I have no idea to get out of this mess.” He complained, slumping down against the railings.
“Mitsuba? You’re..” she paused, eyeing him curiously “from the middle school division, right?”
“Are you a ghost? And..” she paused to look at him “have we met somewhere?”
“I..” he paused, swallowing the lump in his throat “don’t know.”
“Who cares? None of that matters now anyways.” He sighed, his rosy eyes flinched a bit, as if maybe trying to hold back tears.
“I guess we’ll have to get out of this place first! But..” she paused “why did you bring me here?”
Mitsuba didn’t say anything for a moment or two, clearing his throat and pointing at the hands still sprouting from the floor.
“Well I wanted someone who could help me,” he explained “so I asked them to find someone for me.”
The hands excitedly exclaimed a small “yeah!” popping around enthusiastically.
“Are they friends of yours, Mitsuba?” Yashiro asked sweetly, bending down to shake their hands.
Mitsuba scoffed with an offended expression.
“Are you suggesting I’m friends with my right hand??” He shouted “Would you please not be so vulgar!”
“I didn’t say they were right hands..” Yashiro mumbled, looking over at a few left hands.
“Besides..” Mitsuba sighed “the only friend I can remember, is..”
He looked at Yashiro and then away.
“Wait why am I telling you this?” Mitsuba scoffed.
“Who is it?” Yashiro asked.
“What do you mean?” Mitsuba replied, tilting his head a bit to show his confusion.
“Your friend,” she insisted “the one you could remember?”
“It’s..” he looked hesitant to tell her, but then thought she might know where to find her, so she gave in.
“Her name’s (Y/N)..” he whispered, Yashiro just managed to hear.
“(Y/N)?” Yashiro repeated.
“Yeah.. it’s kind of a weird story. I don’t know why she’s the only one I remember. I just remember waking up, no memory of anything or anyone.”
“Just her.”
Yashiro gave him a pitiful look, and put a hand on his shoulder.
“Well,” she began “first let’s get out of here. And then, I think I might have an idea of where she might be.” she said with a smile.
“Really?” He asked excitedly, shooting up from his slouching position.
“Of course.” Yashiro confirmed.
“Well then..” he mumbled, looking up at Yashiro, leaning his head down on his arms and batting his pretty eyelashes at her “will you help me out of here?”
Yashiro felt a pang in her heart, to her, Mitsuba looked like an innocent puppy. And when he saw that look of awe in her eyes, he knew his charm worked.
“I can’t make any promises,” she cleared her throat “but this isn’t my first time in a place like this. So I’m sure we can find our way out somehow.”
“God..” he smiled softly “thank you, Yashiro.”
Yashiro put her hand over her chest, her eyes tearing up dramatically as she gushed over him.
“What is it?” Mitsuba asked innocently.
“O-Oh..” Yashiro stuttered “it’s nothing!”
She turned her head away with a smile, and each time she wasn’t looking, Mitsuba made a face to mock her.
.
.
They continued to walk aimlessly around the boundary, looking at all the mirrors as they passed by.
“Mitsuba,” Yashiro spoke up after a while, uncomfortable with the silence “this is your first time in a boundary, right?” she then gave him a proud smile “Not to brag or anything, but this is my fourth time in one!”
“It is my first time..” Mitsuba admited “but—“
“Then as your upper-classman, or- err.. woman? I’ll teach you all about boundaries!” She exclaimed excitedly, grabbing his sleeve-covered hand with her own.
———
After a while of Yashiro explaining the basic understanding of a boundary as they further explored the place, Mitsuba nodded and ‘okay’ed’ everything she said.
“Woah.” He mumbled in astonishment at the new information he was given.
Before Yashiro could make a proud remark, he snickered “You seem to know an awful lot about this for a living person.”
“Scary..” he said, backing away in ‘fear’ playfully.
.
.
The three of you made your way to the library where Mr. Tsuchigomori usually would be. Not giving him a chance to ask why you all are there, you begin to all try to explain at once.
“Wait, back up a few steps. One at a time.” He sighs, almost like a father telling his children to wait their turn to talk.
Before either you or Hanako get the chance to speak first, Kou beats you both to it—and explains the whole situation.
“Why are you even bothering me with this..?” Mr. Tsuchigomori groaned, rubbing his forehead as if it will soothe the annoying headache the three of you were to him.
“Because!” Hanako wailed “It’s been two hours since they took Yashiro! And I can’t get into number 3’s boundary!”
“Yeah!” You sighed with a pout, very much worried for your friend.
“The kids and I even tried begging on our hands and knees for number 3 to let us in! But it didn’t work!” Hanako cried, dramatically flapping his arms all over the place.
You smacked the back of his head “Stop that, we didn’t even go that far.” you groaned.
“But still! We would’ve if it meant number 3 would let us in!” Hanako wailed yet again, clinging to your sleeve.
“Please spider-face!” Kou finally exclaimed after seeing a moment from where he could talk.
The sudden name made you snort, clasping a hand over your mouth to stop yourself from bursting into laughter. Kou smiled, seeing as this had been the first time you’d smiled since the incident with Mistuba.
“It’s Mr...” Hanako corrected.
“Whatever! Mr. Spider Face!” Kou yet again exclaimed, clasping his hands together as if to beg, making you finally let your strained laughter flow from your lips.
“Yes! Please help us Mr. Spider Face!” You snickered, doing the same gesture as Kou, you both were now laughing maniacally at this point.
“You little..” Mr. Tsuchigomori sighed, you swore you saw his eyebrow twitching.
“I can’t let Yashiro get hurt..” Hanako spoke up, after having going silent for a while.
You and Kou both turned to him, confused by the sincerity in his voice. The Hanako you knew to be flirtatious and a pervert and sometimes even a jerk, being serious for once? It was a sight to see for sure.
“Tell me Mr. Tsuchigomori..” he uttered, finally looking up after staring at the seemingly more interesting floor for so long “won’t you help us?”
Even the disguised supernatural looked shocked to see the ghost so genuine, so with a sigh, he got up.
“Well, I do have an idea.” He hummed, walking over to a specific bookshelf.
He moved a couple of books to reveal Yako snoozing on the bookshelf. Effortlessly, he grabbed her, and tossed her over to Hanako—who luckily caught her. You, Kou, and Hanako looked down at the Nogitsune in Hanako’s arms.
“Number 2?” Hanako asked “Why?”
“Hear me out.” Mr. Tsuchigomori sighed, sitting back down at his desk “The seven mysteries boundaries each serve to oversee a certain aspect of the school.”
“My ‘book stacks’ manage records, the clock keepers manage ‘time’, and number 2 manages ‘space.” He explained “If you go through her boundary you can get pretty much anywhere in the school.”
“That includes number 3’s boundary?” You asked, looking down at Yako.
“Pretty much.” Mr. Tsuchigomori sighed.
“But I thought Yashiro busted up her boundary?” Kou asked.
“Oh Kou.. poor, sweet, dumb little Kou.” You snickered, making said boy glare at you, more like aggressively side-eyeing you.
Mr. Tsuchigomori shook his head with a fond smile, before continuing “Oh that.. all she really did was take her right to manage it. The boundary itself is still existing. But with its overseer gone.. it’s probably a mess.”
“Isn’t that right echinococcus?” He snickered, making the latter snap up with a growl.
“Shut up emo spider!” Yako retorted, making you snicker.
“Emo spider..” you snorted in an almost whisper.
“And why should I even help you! I could care less what happens to your assistant!” Yako crossed her arms, turning her head with a ‘hmph!’.
“Beecause we’re your favorites?” You asked hopefully, but she didn’t seem to budge.
“Kitsune udon.” Hanako spoke, holding up his butcher knife as if to threaten her.
“Huh?” Yako gasped offendedly “I- It’s not even my problem!”
“Udon.”
“Fine..” Yako finally huffed, knowing Hanako wouldn’t go through with it—but still wanted to help him out.
.
.
.
“Let’s see…” Yako hummed, walking towards the bottom of the stairs.
“This is it right?” Kou asked.
“You’re kidding right?” You asked in disbelief, giving Kou a ‘are you stupid?’ look.
“Hey I was just making sure!” Kou whined, elbowing you in the side, which resulted in you two giggling and playfully shoving each other.
“Here we go!” Yako sung, breaking your guys’s laughter “One,” one at a time you were taking steps up the stairs “two,” and another “three..”
“Four.”
The Misaki Stairs were nothing new to you, you had come here with the trio before in search for Yashiro’s friend, Aoi. And hearing that it had been all out of whack since Yashiro destroyed it’s yoshiro, you weren’t surprised to look out into the distance and for the large empty void to be staring right back at you.
Though it was filled with pretty flowers to the brim, and sunny skies something still felt off. Like something was out of place.
“It’s..” Hanako marveled, staring out in disbelief.
“Woah!” Kou grinned, looking around like a child trying to pick which ride to go on first at an amusement park “It’s so pretty now!”
“Yeah..” you murmured, not being able to shake off the eerie feeling it gave you, but seeing as the other two seemed at ease—you tried your best to forget about it.
“I’ll show you to number 3’s boundary,” Yako hummed, now in human form “just keep up.”
The “click-clack” and “tut-tut” of your shoes against the stairs as you climbed was the only thing to fill the silence. You looked down from the stairs, only to be met with a void. It was empty. So empty it made you shiver, so you moved your focus elsewhere. Perhaps towards the flowers at the bottom of the stairs…
“Hey fox lady?” Kou finally spoke up, breaking the  deafening silence.
“What do you want stupid brat?” Yako spat, not turning back to even glance at him as he spoke.
“You know how before your rumor changed and you went totally crazy?” Kou asked, making you widen your eyes at the insensitive comment and elbow his side, making him glare at you as he winced “and you attacked me and the other students.”
“You like bringing up unpleasant memories, don’t you?” Yako scoffed, but you didn’t miss the way she winced at the mention of the things she had done before “What’s your point?”
“Oh it’s just.. I was wondering what that felt like.” Kou mumbled, now feeling unsure if it was okay to ask, though he felt the need to.
“What? Why would you wanna know that?! Talk about poor taste!” Yako yapped, turning to glare at Kou “I knew Misaki was the only human worth answering! The rest are lower than insects!”
Feeling a bit of pity, and knowing how curious he must have been cause you were too you placed a gentle hand on Kou’s shoulder and spoke. “Hey, give him a break. I understand what he said might have been a tad insensitive but..” you paused, looking down at the ground “recently, we had a friend of ours go a bit berserk after his rumor changed. And we- I mean Kou’s just curious if when your rumor changed, was it still you?”
“They’re kinda like you, huh number 2?” Hanako chuckled, but Yako kept her back to you three.
“Well..” Yako finally murmured as you all continued up the steps “it didn’t feel good, at least when I look back at it now. But..” she paused, and she looked unsure if she should continue, but when she looked at you two who were listening so intently, she couldn’t help but continue “It was definitely me. It was just a side of me that I kept bottled up, and it was forced out of me. That’s all.”
“Okay..” Kou mumbled, clearly unsure. You didn’t miss how his eyes shifted back down to the yearbook in his hands, and you patted his shoulder, as if to tell him I know how you feel.
“So if you tried to say something to your friend, even if he didn’t understand it, it still probably reached him.” That alone gave Kou hope, maybe. Just maybe, that last encounter with Mitsuba, he was able to talk to him.
“It doesn’t matter how warped he is.” Yako continued, seeing how he seemed a bit confused “or even if he changed form or shape.”
“That boy.. is still that boy.”
Just as you were about to ask a question of your own, Yako and Hanako—who were walking in front of you, stopped walking. “We’re here.” Yako announced.
“I assume our chat is over?” She hummed in more of a question, but then added “We’ve arrived, number 3’s boundary is straight through here.”
“Is that a mirror?” Kou asked, poking the frame.
“I don’t know.. looks kind of eerie to me. Hanako mumbled, floating above it as he exclaimed it closely.
“Yeah.. I mean..” you murmured, running your finger along the glass when you felt a force pulling you in.
You let out a surprised yelp as you were engulfed by the mirror’s glass, leaving the three in disbelief.
“Just so you know.. I’m not going further than here.”
You landed in some unknown place with a “oomph”, the place was filled with mirrors. You heard a loud yelp in what you could have only recognized as Yashiro’s voice.
“Oh right, your supposed to be nice to girls.”
You turned with teary eyes from the bright light that filled the room to find the voice, and you felt yourself freeze when you realized it was Tsukasa.
The ghost, no. The vicious supernatural who tore Mitsuba from you.
You watched as Yashiro fell to ground in deep slumber, she looked awfully peaceful given the circumstances and situation they were in. When Tsukasa got up, your eyes wandered to where Mitsuba was at.
“Now, time for you to eat up Mitsu!” Tsukasa chirped, his voice was sickeningly sweet but it made shivers run down your spine, as he held what looked like to be a heart in his hands.
“No, NO! PLEASE, NO!” Mitsuba cried, trying to back away from the entity.
Mitsuba’s eyes widened in shock when he noticed you were there, and you didn’t miss that hopeful glint in his eyes when you made eye contact, hopeful that you would save him.
“(Y/N)!” He cried, trying to get Tsukasa’s bloodied hands off of him, tears streaming down his soft skin “PLEASE, HELP ME!”
You don’t know what came over you, but you found yourself rushing over in attempt to strangle Tsukasa, but he threw you off of him effortlessly.
“Get—“ you coughed “GET AWAY FROM HIM!”
Tsukasa looked unfazed, his expression void of any emotion but it still made you shake with fear, not of what he would do to you, but of what he would do to Mitsuba.
“Now, eat up.” Tsukasa mumbled, his voice was low, and sounded inhumane. Distorted and horrifying. You wanted to get up, fight Tsukasa, and save Mitsuba. But this was no fairytale, so with a pounding headache—you watched as Tsukasa forcefully fed Mitsuba what you thought to be number 3’s heart, due to the entity that laid lifeless beside them with teary eyes.
You began to cry, feeling helpless. Tsukasa got up, walking towards you. You saw as Mitsuba looked distorted too, but he was still Mitsuba nonetheless.
“No-NO! PLEASE DON’T HURT HER! I’LL DO WHATEVER YOU WANT JUST PLEASE—“
A loud “WHAM” shook the room and two boys you could only recognize as Hanako and Kou came crashing down screaming like little girls. Kou was the first to get up, his eyes wandered to your shaking form, but you weren’t crying out of fear of Tsukasa—who he saw standing in-front of you—but when he followed your eyes to where they wandered, he realized why.
“..Mitsuba..?”

Miya x Reader songfic
Summary: Your Miya’s first love, and he doesn’t know how to deal with it, you, or his feelings.
Warnings/things to know: Slight implication of female reader, minor cursing, parts that aren’t on plot of sk8, some angst? You get a happy ending though dw dw.
(A/N) : Didn’t really get to post till now busy with school but since it’s summer already I’ve got loads of time but not enough motivation so I’ll probably post writings of different characters slowly cause yeah, but I hope you like it. English isn’t really my first language but I love writing, so if there’s any grammar errors or spelling mistakes lmk!! If there’s anything you want me to write, I can try!
Let me just set the scene!
Miya had invited you to watch him at one of his S matches, he was going against this ‘new Canadian kid’ as he put it. And you agreed. “Good luck.” You encouraged with a smile, he felt himself smiling too but he shoved it down. He scoffed, turning his head away “won’t need luck.” He muttered confidently, heading to the start so they could begin. As soon as the buzzer rang, the two sped off. You watched in awe at how gracefully Miya was losing skating, the blue haired teenager he was going against started to catch up to him, as if it were nothing.
.
.
Once the match ended Miya looked so bummed about having lost—to rookie too. You giggled at his pouting “what was that about not needing luck?” You teased. “Shut up.” He murmured. You smiled. “Relax,” you say putting a hand between his shoulder and back. “you did great either way.” Miya swore you looked absolutely stunning, despite the dim lighting of the lamp post and your clothes that got dirty from skating earlier. “Yeah..” he muttered, too mesmerized by your beauty to come up with some snarky remark.
Cause the potential of us was keeping me up all—night long.
You met up with him the following day for school, dressed in the uniform. “G’morning Miya.” You smiled, he looked at you and looked away. Even in the school’s uniform you looked pretty. “Morning.” He murmured in a trance. Your smirked. “Miya I know I’m pretty, admire me all you want, but we’re going to be late for class if you keep staring at me.” Said boy flushed red. “S.. Sorry. You’re right, let’s go.” He said shaking his head to clear his thoughts and began walking with you to class.
Like what if you freak out when we’re losing it all
At the critical chapter, where I say “I love you”, and you don’t say it after.
The two of you were in science class, passing notes back and forth. Miya made sure to listen partially to what the teacher was talking about, just in case she called on either or both of you. And so you wouldn’t get in trouble. ‘Skate park after school?’ You slid the piece of paper over to him. He looked down and got his pencil out to reply. ‘Sure, but we should probably finish our homework before skating.’ He slid it back over to you. You chuckled lightly, which made the cat-like boy raise an eyebrow. He wondered what you were thinking about. You smiled, pursing your lips in a tight line—or at least tried to, so you wouldn’t burst out laughing. ‘Are you inviting me on a study date?’ He blushed, and whipped his head quickly to see you snickering. Your lips were twitching as you covered your mouth, trying to keep yourself from laughing. “Ms. (Y/N)? What’s so funny?” The teacher asked. “Oh nothing, I’m sorry.” You said, clearing your throat. “Well then could you tell me which group the element xenon lands in?” She asked, crossing her arms. Everyone turned to you, waiting to laugh at you when you would supposedly get the wrong answer. You smiled. Miya was a bit worried, cause although he knew he was paying attention he didn’t know if you had. “Yeah no problem, group 18, it’s in the noble gases.” You say confidently. The students groaned, turning back in their seats, disappointed the wouldn’t have something someone to laugh at. The teacher just gave you a questioning look but just shook her head and continued on with her lesson. Miya was impressed. He found himself smiling when you smirked victoriously. “Guess studying for hours straight actually is good for something.” You joked, elbowing him. Just the simple touch made his heart race. “Yeah..” shit he really did like you.
Now I’m falling in faster, this could be a disaster.
School finally came to an end, and you stretched your arms over your head. “Tired?” Miya asked. “Yeah, can’t believe they made us run that much.” You sighed. All he did was chuckle as you got your stuff from your locker. “Oh right, can we stop by my house real quick? I don’t want to be skating in a skirt.” You said, shutting your locker. “Of ‘course, her majesty can’t be tripping over her large ball gown.” Miya teased. You scoffed and smacked his shoulder lightly. “Wow I’m hurt.” He teased, but he couldn’t hide the smile that tugged at the corners of his lips.
Let me just—lose my mind.
The sun had started to set, your homework was long done and forgotten. Miya was teaching you some new trick that you hadn’t learned. Sure he laughed every time you would fall, but he always helped you back to your feet. “This is has got to be the millionth time you’ve fell.” Miya teased, reaching his hand out to help you up. “Yeah for you.” You muttered under your breath, thankfully he didn’t hear. “What was that?” He asked. Taking his hand to get back up, you shook your head to rid of your thoughts before smirking at him. “I said and if this is the millionth time I’ve fallen, then it’s the millionth time you’ve helped me up.” You chuckled, making him blush. Miya knew that wasn’t what you said, he thought he heard something else. But he figured he must’ve been hearing things. He couldn’t get his hopes up too soon.
But if I'm reading it wrong, man, it'd be better off if I died.
The sun was just about to sink completely in the dark blue horizon, you could see the stars twinkling up. You and Miya had finished up skating for the day, opting to just sit at the top of the ramp, and attempt to stargaze. But it was hard to see anything with all the city lights.
“The moon is beautiful tonight, isn’t it?” You asked, clearing your throat. He looked into your eyes then back at the moon and smiled, “Yeah, it is.” he replied, not understanding what you were hinting at. You sighed, and let your head fall back onto the railings on the ramp. You winced with your head hit the metal bars a little too hard and he scoffed with a smile. “Idiot.” He muttered under his breath, turning to look at you as you glared at him and rubbed your head to try to soothe the pain. “Be careful,” he said, looking at you lovingly. But he immediately ‘coughed’ and added a “don’t want you to get even dumber than you already are.” Which made you shake your head and smile at his demeanor.
This could be a disaster, I’m pedaling backwards.
“Wanna watch my match tonight?” He asked. You tried to forget about last night, because you knew he was stupidly dense and wanted to save yourself from embarrassment. “Um. Sorry, gonna have to turn you down this one time. I gotta finish studying for that math exam.” You lied, or at least partially. You were just making up excuses. He raised an eyebrow at this, clearly knowing you were well prepared for the test, and even though he’d never admit it he felt hurt. “Ah. Okay. Well good luck with the studying!” He said awkward through gritted teeth, biting down on his tongue to avoid asking questions. You were probably busy, he thought. “Maybe next time.” You chuckled awkwardly. You both looked down at the floor. You wanted to go watch him, but you couldn’t. Every time he smiled or laughed, or even when he made his usual snide remarks he made your heart race. “Yeah.. next time.” He repeated. “Well I’ve got to go—“ you both said making you both chuckle. “Yeah, love you bye!” You accidentally blurted out. “What?” He asked shocked. You clasped a hand over your mouth. “I said you’re such a fly.” You lied. “Well uhh— I should probably go.” You said speeding off. And it would’ve been okay if it weren’t for the fact that Miya hadn’t said a word.
He fucking heard.
Maybe I'm mistaken
During his match, you were all he could think about. He tried to shake it off and concentrate on one goal, winning. But every time he tried, he thought of you again.
You're not mine for takin'
In your room you were panicking, rummaging around for anything to calm yourself down, but you found yourself empty handed.
.
.
After a while you finally calmed down, listening to music from your favorite artist. Recalling what you had said, and that he had heard you, you screamed into your pillow. You heard a soft thud, then another. You lifted your head up from the pillow, to see another stone was making the noise. You got up to see what it was, assuming it must’ve been one of the neighborhoods kids trying to pull some type of prank, but when you got up to look at the window, you saw no other than “Miya?” You called, though it almost sounded like a question. “Hey, can we talk?” He asked, kicking his feet into the grass anxiously. You pursed your lips, grabbing a sweater and exiting out your window.
Maybe I just made it up, messed it up.
You guys walked a bit, probably aimlessly till you somehow made your way to the skate park you guys would hang out at. He climbed up the ramp, then extending his hand to help you up. He wasn’t acting like himself. You took his hand anyways, sitting down awkwardly, nervously swinging your legs over the edge. “(Y/N), listen. About what you said—“ “If this is your way of rejecting me gently, save me the trouble and just say it.” You interrupted. He looked at you confused, his eyebrows furrowed, half annoyed that you would think that was what he was gonna say and a bit bewildered that you interrupted him. “Geez at least let me—“ but he stopped himself when he noticed you were tearing up. He cleared his throat, grabbing your hand. “That’s not what I’m doing here,” he started, you looked up to gaze into his green eyes. “Actually, what I was going to say before you so rudely interrupted me,” he continued making you laugh a bit. Though it cracked a bit, as you were on the verge of tears thinking he was going to reject you. “Is that I like you.” He mumbled. “What?” You asked, “Miya Chinen tell me this isn’t some sick joke.” You repeated, looking into his eyes for any signs that he could be lying. But he only smiled, and it looked so genuine that it made you believe a bit that he was telling the truth. “I like you, (Y/N). Like a whole lot.” He said, reaching to boldly cup your face in his hands. And that was all you needed to hear to break into tears and throw your arms around him. “God you don’t know how happy that makes me.” You cried, and he hugged you back hesitantly, not really use to the affection, but he welcomed it anyways. “Ive liked you for a while. Every time you smiled, or when I saw your eyes light up whenever you finally learned a new trick, I fell in love with you more.” He admitted, though flustered. You chuckled through wet tears, “that’s so corny..” you smiled. He just shook his head with a laugh. “So what does that make us now?” You asked, pulling away from his arms to look at him eye-to-eye. “Guess that makes us boyfriend and girlfriend.” He said with a smile. His cheeks were dusted pink, and with the dim lighting from the street lights, he looked almost ethereal. He coughed nervously, averting your gaze. “That’s if you want to I mean, if you don’t then that’s cool too.” He rambled. You shook your head with a chuckle, leaning in to press a gentle kiss to his cheek, making him even more flustered. “Dude, I just indirectly told you I like you too and you’re asking if I want to? Yes of course I do!” You giggled. He swore right then and there that his heart was going to burst out of his chest. He shyly grabbed your hand, rubbing small circles on the back of it. “Hey (Y/N)?” He called. You hummed. “I love you.” He mumbled, looking up at you slightly. You smiled, “I love you too.” You sat in silence for a few seconds. “Wait but did you when the match?” You asked. He chuckled. “Hell yeah I won the match.”
You shook your head with a smile, leaning onto his shoulder. You knew you might get in trouble for being out late on a school night but right now you just wanted to enjoy this moment while it lasted.

Ace Trappola x reader
Deuce Spade x reader
Back to Heartslabyul masterlist <—
Ace Trappola as your childhood friend would include..
- You would have to keep him out of trouble, as it was shown in the first chapter he likes to pick fun at others and it could get him into trouble.
- Ace always helps you with your homework, he is smart, despite his carefree persona, and if you are ever struggling with any class he always helps you understand the topic you’re learning better!
- Ace being the little shithead he is loves playing pranks on you, it’s like the highlight of the day. But he will stop if you tell him to.
- I feel like his brother would tease the shit out of Ace sometimes, whenever you and Ace would visit him of course, like he’ll notice him trying to hit on you, and just calls him out on it in front of you. Ace swears he wants to strangle his brother..
- You know how his dad is good at performing card tricks? I feel like at least once when you two were kids, he would try to perform one of the same card tricks but failed. You would always like laugh and poke fun at him because he messed it up, but now that he’s older, he sometimes shows you the same card tricks when your upset and need cheering up and even though he knows the right way to do it, he messes it up just so that you could smile and laugh at him. He loves your smile but he’d never admit it out loud.
- Speaking of you being upset, since Ace has known you since you two were kids, he knows when you’re upset, you can’t hide it from him. He’s like a lie-detector when it comes to you.
- Ace as your childhood friend, trying to cheer you up, would most likely be him taking you with him to prank someone with him. He wants to see you laugh, but if you’re genuinely upset, and don’t want him to joke around—he’ll just let you lay in his arms and let you rant about whatever is bothering you.
- He is not the best comforter, I don’t know why. I feel like he gets kinda awkward and doesn’t know what to say or do to make you feel better, so the only thing he does do, is just sit there, hugging you and listen to you ramble about whatever is bothering you. He’s better at making you laugh than comforting you with words but don’t tell him that lmao.
- Ace probably can and will beat up anyone who dares to hurt you. Metaphorically, I mean. Like if someone made fun of you, or made you feel bad or uncomfortable. Unlike Deuce he won’t result to violence. He’ll make a total fool of them.
- I have a feeling he’ll get jealous if you flirt with Cater. He’d never admit it to you. Like I could see it.
“Hey, (Y/N), you and I should go to this new café I saw online, they say the ratings are high!” Cater exclaims, showing you the location on his phone. “Oh really?” you asked, peering over his shoulder to get a better look of the screen. “Yeah, you wanna come?” Cater asks again. “Like a date?” You snickered, looking over at Ace who was practically fuming. Cater knew what you were doing and played along. “Yeah, a date.” Cater smirked, hugging you close to him. Ace made a quiet ‘hmph!’ noise, crossing his arms. He paused for a few seconds, before marching right up to you, purposely shoving Cater away from you to sit in-between you. “That sounds great, mind if I tag along?” Ace asked, draping his arm around your shoulders. “Ace, honey, just admit your jealous.” Cater snickered, poking Ace’s side. Ace’s face flushed a bright red “I am not!”. Cater’s smirk only widens “So you don’t mind if I take them on a date?” Cater taunts, smirking at Ace. “I never said that!” Ace retorts, crossing has arms as he shifted his gaze to the floor with a huff. “C’mon it’s not that hard, just admit you like them.”
- Ace probably doesn’t realize his feelings for you until you both start attending school at NRC, when he sees you jokingly flirting with Cater, or spending too much time with someone who isn’t him, and he feels weird jealous—that’s when he realizes “oh you absolute dumb fuck your in love with them.” He feels so stupid for not realizing that he likes you sooner, despite him being a really smart person.
- Ace probably doesn’t like the idea of telling you he has feelings for you though. You’re his childhood friend! It’s like the basic, most often thought romance troupe!
- Poor baby makes it so obvious though, always trying to make you smile, pouting when you flirt too much with Cater, and just in general. You don’t tell him you know though to both save him the embarrassment of being so obvious and so he could build up the courage to tell you himself.
- Which never happens, so if you really want him to know you like him back, you’re gonna have to tell him.
Deuce Spade as your childhood friend would include..
- You would always try to keep him out of trouble, more like keeping him from getting into fights with people, making sure to somewhat keep him in line.
- I get the feeling that Deuce would help you with anything you needed. He’s not as smart as Ace, so he can’t help you with studying, but if Grim broke anything you need anything fixed, you can rely on him to fix it!
- Speaking of Deuce’s studying, I feel like he barely passes his classes, despite studying so hard to get good grades. So you and him have like little study nights in his dorm, where you help him try to not fail every class he and you both just study and prepare for exams or projects so that his mind doesn’t go completely blank, which definitely doesn’t turn into you two talking back and forth the whole time.
- Also, back to the fact the Deuce’s mom is a single mother, so I feel like as kids you would go over to help him help his mom around the house, if that makes sense? His mother loves you, and definitely made a joke of you being her future daughter-in-law.
- I don’t know why I feel like Deuce likes when you depend on him. Cause like, how he would always help his mom out with things so things would be easier for her, I feel like he’d do the same thing for you, cause he likes helping you out. Something about how he would like doing things for you just to help you out, or fixing things that Grim had broken, or helping you clean up around the dorm. This man’s love language just HAS to be acts of service.
- Deuce probably, if he failed another test again, he’d come to you for comfort. Watching him sulk as you hold him in your arms, complaining about how he worked so hard to just to fail yet again. Times like this, he insists on going to you, even if your busy, he’ll just lean his forehead onto the back of your shoulder and grumble something about not studying hard enough, and needing to study harder. Please assure him he did his best and that’s enough!
- I would think that Deuce is more of a comforter than Ace, in the sense that he’ll bluntly tell you what is what and how to fix it (ex. a toxic partner, he’ll just straight up tell you to put them in their place [beat ‘em up] and leave them). But that’s a good thing actually. If you just want him to listen though, that’s cool too! He could totally do that!!
- Anyone who dares to badmouth you, or insult you to your face—with him there, might I add—he won’t hesitate to beat the shit out of them tell them off.
- Adding onto that, Deuce would definitely try to fight them when you’re not around, frustratingly muttering how it wasn’t his fault, and they were practically asking for him to beat them up when they were talking badly about you. You had to beg Crowley to let him off the hook, or else you’d be dealing with a sulky Deuce if he got suspended.
- I get the feeling Deuce is very protective of you, always making sure you’re eating enough, staying hydrated, taking care of yourself. What? He can’t help it, you’re his friend afterall.
- He probably can’t tell when you’re upset, unlike Ace so you have to come to him and tell him.
- He cares a LOT about you, and he’ll make sure to show it. He’s such a sweetheart with you, honestly.
- Despite being extremely straightforward and blunt, I feel like if you tried to hint at your feelings for him, he’d be so oblivious—this dense mf, if you said something like “oh I like this guy with.. dark blue hair and terrible grades” this man will just be like “oh cool haha” he definitely isn’t jealous.
- I don’t think Deuce is a jealous guy I’m lying, I’m lying—he’s defo a jealous guy. AND HE WONT EVEN TRY TO HIDE IT?? Like again, if Cater is flirting with you as a joke, Deuce would be like “Sorry, I need them for the rest of the day, you cannot have them.”
- Cater probably asks him if he likes you, and Deuce would probably just go “no they’ve just been my friend since we were kids, it’s natural for me to feel like this.” is it really?
- But Cater eventually explains and manages to make Deuce realize that YES, he does in fact have feelings for you he’s just really dense.
- Deuce over analyzes this for DAYS, observing everything you do, trying to see if it’s okay to confess to you, he wants to. And he would but he just can’t stand one thing. Rejection. It makes his stomach churn. He would’ve if he actually managed to see the signs..
- Riddle once caught you trying to indirectly tell Deuce you liked him, he called you out on it.
“Aha.. so Deuce. Remember how I was telling you how there was this guy I liked?” you asked in the middle of an unbirthday party. “Yeah? You said he has dark blue hair right? And he has terrible grades?” Deuce confirmed, trying to think of who he knew that was like that. “They’re also incredibly dense.” you sigh. “Why? Have you told them your feelings yet?” Deuce asked, his heart sinking as he thought you might like someone else. “Yeah, I’ve hinted to him about my feelings but he doesn’t seem to catch on.” you grumbled. Deuce chuckled “He sounds stupid—“ “They’re talking about you, dimwit.” Riddle sighed, having enough of your pathetic attempts of trying to let Deuce see that you like him. Deuce then turns to you with a flushed face. “Is this.. true?” he paused, trying to look in your eyes for any signs of a lie. “Maybe..” you admitted, your own face flushed red. “If this “maybe” is a yes, then I like you too.” Deuce gives you a fond smile, making you even more flustered by his bluntness.
- Deuce is honestly a good friend to you, but the story is left for your imagination to continue. :)
(A/N) : My hands are hurting so bad it’s okay though, cause I needed to finish this before going to bed. I didn’t want you to think I refused this request. Which is also another thing, if I don’t respond to it the same day, it’s probably cause I’m a bit busy with things, but I’ll get to it before it can get to a few days of waiting. I hope you liked this! If you need anything changed lmk!
Okay but seriously send help my fingers are twitching and my wrists are cramping up.

I originally thought for this to be some sort of short story that I could have in a one-shot, but then I realized I had too much for this so I decided on making this a short-novel instead. There is a playlist for this story, but if you want to listen to the separate ones, I made a few. They will be released as the chapters are published, and once I’m finished with the entire book you will be able to listen to the entire playlist altogether for the book.
Summary: You’ve been able to see ghost, spirits, and supernatural being since you were young. It all started when your father performed rituals on you with a cult, your mom knew of this, but never showed any signs of putting an end to it. Your aunt noticed something strange whenever she’d gone over. You’d show her things she couldn’t see, cry when you heard something she didn’t, and talked to things—to people, that weren’t there. Worried, she asked you if knew what they were doing, naively, you replied excitedly that it was just a game you played. She explained to you that you shouldn’t be seeing these things, and fled with you since she was worried of your safety. You’d been able to see them since. You met Mitsuba since you saved him from a group of bullies back in elementary, and had been friends ever since. You told him everything, and he put aside his “kind” persona with you. But when he was announced dead, you were devastated. You hoped you’d see his spirit soon, at least once. But you started to lose hope. Your aunt was worried, and asked you to go to therapy but they refused to see you after a disturbing feeling that someone was with them and had to be admitted. So when you met Kou in your second year of middle school, he took you to his brother. He wasn’t able to help either, but at least now you had someone to talk to it about.
Warnings: Angst (intensifies and dies down at random), cursing, ooc characters (at some point in the story), mentions of death, mentions of suicide, Tsukasa needing some serious help, implications of female reader, dirty jokes (but nothing close to acting going at it, mostly just Mitsuba’s act), Teru is an asshole at some point but it’s okay, and more..
Act I — chapters (5/5)
Act II — chapters (1/5)
Act III — chapters (coming soon..)
Act IV — chapters (coming soon..)
Act V — chapters (coming soon…)
(A/N) : Story can and WILL go off plot at times.
Excited, you run over to him. You remembered him, but did he remember you? When you reached over to hug him and he backed away from your touch, you felt hurt. He didn’t. He remembered Kou who forgot him, but he couldn’t remember you.
(A/N) : Proofread, so don’t worry about any grammar mistakes or spelling errors. Enjoy!
Prev >> Next
“Mitsuba?” You cried, unsure if he was really there or not.
“You know this kid?” Kou asked you.
You didn’t answer him, only running up to hug him, only for him to back away from you.
“Sorry, do I know you?” He said with a raised eyebrow, genuinely confused.
Your heart sank to your stomach.
“You remember me, and I don’t know you? But I know you and you don’t remember me?” Mitsuba asked.
“Who are you?” Mitsuba asked another question, suddenly going from cocky to confused.
“What do you mean? I don’t know you?” Kou asked making them both even more confused.
“I’m gonna- er. Go. Yashiro could probably use the help.” You excused, walking off.
Your voice was shaky.
“What the hell?!” Kou shouted at the ghost who you called Mitsuba.
He grabbed him by the collar, he was confused when you recognized the ghost boy, but angry that he didn’t seem to recognize you despite asking people if they remembered him. Mitsuba yelped.
“I swear I don’t know her! I really don’t know who she is! I mean she feels familiar but I don’t know her!” Mitsuba yelled thrashing around in panic.
Kou huffed, he has never seen you that upset.
.
.
“You know him?” Yashiro asked.
You nodded, taking the tissue Hanako offered to you.
“It’s okay, knowing he’s not alive maybe his memories were thrown around and it’s just gonna take longer for him to remember you.” Hanako assured you, the mokke unusually backed him up, nodding and agreeing.
“Yeah, Hanako’s right! I’m sure he’ll come around.” Yashiro smiled.
“Thanks Yashiro,” you smiled warmly at her, though it still looked sad “maybe you’re right.”
“Just gotta wait.” Hanako confirmed.
You checked the time on your phone.
5:59 p.m.
“Well I’m gonna head out. Thanks for listening.” You said, standing up.
“No problem! You can always come to us with anything!” Yashiro beamed with a smile.
I smiled too, before leaving the school.
.
.
“That quick?” Your aunt asked as you opened the door.
She was sitting in the living room, watching some show she found in a channel.
“I got tired, so I’m just going to go to bed.” You said, but your voice failed you and cracked.
Your aunt raised an eyebrow at this, and stood up.
“Everything go okay at school?” She asked, and that’s when you broke again.
You told her everything, how when Kou finally found something on the ghost, you were happy. That you went to go leave your stuff down, and you hesitated to walk the rest of the way when you heard it. And when you had confirmed that it was indeed, Mitsuba’s spirit, and ran to embrace him, he backed away and said he didn’t remember you.
“Oh honey..” your aunt said in a hushed voice, hugging you.
“Maybe something went wrong with his memory. I don’t know much about the supernatural, but sometimes they forget things. Just give it time okay?” She assured, hugging you a bit tighter as you cried harder.
“Okay.” You sobbed.
“Go ahead and shower, there’s this new k-drama I found, wanna watch it together?” Your aunt asked.
“Sure..” you hiccuped, finally calming down.
Your aunt smiled.
“Alright, hurry and shower, get ready for bed, and then come down here. I’m gonna go buy snacks, you want anything?” She asked, already going to grab her wallet and keys.
“Maybe just some chips and something to drink..” you mumbled, wiping the last of your tears.
“Okay, I’ll be back.” She said, rushing out the door.
You hurried up to shower.
—
The feeling of the hot water splashing on your back was comforting. You were already done showering, just standing there to think.
“Maybe they are right. I just have to wait.” You assured yourself.
“Yeah, I just have to wait.” You confirmed.
—
You had already finished doing your skincare, getting dressed in your comfiest pajamas, and were now drying your hair. You were about to head downstairs, when you got the notification of a call.
—
Incoming call..
Answer / Decline
—
“Hello?” You called, your voice sounded raspy from crying so much.
“Hey, you ran out after seeing that ghost.” Kou said after a few moments, pointing out the obvious.
“I did.” You confirmed, sitting down on your bed.
“You okay?” He asked, pausing before adding “oh and Tiara says hi.”
You smile, and he swore he could hear it.
“Tell her I say hi too. And yeah. I should be okay. I talked to Yashiro, Hanako, and now my aunt about it. I should be fine.” You reply.
He gasped, acting offended.
“And you didn’t talk to me about it? How could you?” He asked, dramatically.
You chuckled, and he smiled.
“You were busy with Mitsuba, don’t know. How could I?” You replied.
He hummed.
“Well I’m not busy now, tell me about it.” He says, laying down on his bed.
He put the phone on speaker, laying it next to his head.
“Mitsuba. You seriously don’t remember him?” You asked.
“No, nothing.” He confirmed.
You sighed.
“He was that photographer in junior high. And..” you paused.
“One of my closest friends since elementary.”
“I told him about everything, about the rituals, about the ghosts, everything. He acted like himself around me. Even if he was cocky and arrogant. He was nice to be around.” You explain.
“You liked being around that? And Teru thinks I’m the crazy one.” Kou joked.
“But,” Kou added. “That still doesn’t ring a bell. You sure he didn’t go to another school?”
You sighed in disapproval.
“No, he wouldn’t be haunting the school entrance if he did. I used to tag along with him. He can come off as a jerk and a total asshole.”
“Oh no yeah for sure.” Kou snorted.
You rolled your eyes.
“But he’s got a kind side if you look really closely.” You say with a smile.
“Yeah I’m pretty sure I’d have to squint really hard to see it.” Kou scoffed with a smile.
“He died, I can’t even remember how long ago anymore. And since I’ve been looking for any sign of his spirit. It wasn’t until recently that something turned up. I had dreams, vivid dreams, of his death. I kept hearing his voice but if I turned around he wasn’t there. So I guess it kinda really hurt me when he said he didn’t remember me. Who was actually close to him when he was alive, but remembered you when you only briefly interacted with him once in junior high.” You sighed, lying on your back, shutting your eyes for a moment.
“Guess I have that affect on people.” He said with a chuckle, fiddling with his bedsheets.
You snorted, rolling onto your stomach.
“I guess. But it still hurt.” You groaned.
He went silent for a moment.
“Hey, how about tomorrow I’ll go find him, and I’ll leave you with him. You can try to jog his memory, talk to him. Do you have any old photos or videos?” He asked after a few seconds.
“Yeah, a few Polaroid photos.. some old videos that my aunt took. I could ask for them.” You reply.
“Yeah, do that. I’ll take care of the rest.” He said.
You smiled.
“Thanks Kou, you really are the best.”
“Your welcome.” He hummed.
“Well, I’m gonna head to sleep now, you should too. I don’t want to be left with Hanako the whole day.” He scoffed playfully.
“Yeah I will in a bit. Good night Kou.” You reply.
“Don’t sleep too late.” He reminded.
“Okay mom.” You answered sarcastically.
“Good night.” Kou said before hanging up.
As if on cue, your aunt unlocked the door and shut it behind her.
“(Y/N), I’m back. You ready?” She called.
“Yeah just give me a minute!” You shouted back, grabbing a blanket and rushing downstairs.
She set the bag of snacks down on the coffee table and flopped down onto the couch. Once you got there and sat down with her, she smiled.
“Take your pick,” she gestured to the bag of snacks “I bought a ton of stuff.”
You thanked her before grabbing what you wanted from the bag, settling down on the couch to watch whatever k-drama she chose.
.
.
You had ended up falling asleep on the couch, peacefully after halfway through the movie. She smiled warmly at your sleeping figure, but she knew you couldn’t fall asleep on the couch. She couldn’t leave you there knowing you might see something, someone again. So she woke you up.
“Hey, sweetie wake up real quick. C’mon you can go back to sleep in your room.” She urged, gently shaking you.
You groaned, rolling onto your side facing the other way.
“(Y/N), c’mon wake up. Go brush your teeth real quick and go back to bed.” She insisted, so with a grumble you got up and went upstairs.
You made your way to the bathroom, brushing your teeth. Once you were done, you left to your room.
You passed your aunt in the hallway upstairs “good night” she called.
“G’night.” You mumbled back sleepily.
You plopped down onto your bed, making yourself comfortable in the covers.
Closing your eyes to sleep, you felt that same weight on your chest. And out of exhaustion, you fell asleep.
(A/N) : Planning on posting the next chapter tomorrow. It’s already done, just needs to be proofread.

If a character isn’t here it’s most likely I don’t pay enough attention to their character to be confident writing about/with them.
(。・//ε//・。)
HOHOHO hi there darling, I saw that you write for mystic messanger and ahhh~ I'm so glad. That games got me in a LITTERAL chokehold the last few days I Litteraly can't focus on anything else beside it...haha anyways onto the request
I read your rules and everything so I think I'm good to go
I was thinking
Zen x reader first kiss maybe imagine or headcanons or whatever youre more comfy with
Anyways love you don't forget to eat and drink (◍•ᴗ•◍)✧*。
Zen x reader (gn) — First kiss.
Aww you’re so sweet, and I can do both since I don’t have anything else to do atm!! Also I didn’t know if you wanted it to be fem or masc reader so it’s gn! And I didn’t know if you meant reader/Zen’s first kiss or the first kiss in the relationship, so I just made it so it was the first kiss in the relationship, but if you meant smth else lmk and I’ll re-write it! Sorry that it’s a bit short, if you wanted it to be longer I could write more!
- I would think Zen wouldn’t be very shy about kissing you, even if it’s your first kiss (in the relationship..)
- I feel like the first thing Zen would do almost immediately after you officially got together—would be kissing you. But ofc he would wait until you’re ready to cause he loves you and don’t wanna make you uncomfy.
- Yk how he’s always flirty in his route? I feel like he would try to make it less.. obvious that he wanted to kiss you but still flirts with you to the point of HINTING that he wants to.
- If you don’t catch onto it, he wouldn’t hesitate to tell you straight, and would even tease you if you got flustered.
- But overall I feel like he’d be very patient and wouldn’t want to rush you if you wanted to wait until you felt the moment was right. <3
You and Zen were currently laying down on the grass, watching as the stars twinkled and shimmered, pointing at every odd shape some of them formed. He had invited on you on a picnic, in the place he would hide away to, he thought what better than to be there, no one to interrupt, just you and him with the crickets in the background.
It was nice, not having to worry about Zen’s fans following you both around and pestering you. It was also nice to not have the chaos of RFA, just the two of you. Nothing more than the sound of crickets chirping every now and then, and the slight breeze that rustled the grass. To Zen, it was perfect. Just laying with you, all alone with only the stars as your witness.
Zen turned to you, his gaze loving as he reached to caress your face.
“Hey?” You giggled, turning on your side so now you were face-to-face with him.
“Hey.” He smiled warmly at you, wrapping his arm around you and pulling you closer.
You two stayed there for a moment or two, maybe longer, but you didn’t know. All you knew is that you were laying there, safe and comfortable. The only light there was the small lamp Zen had brought, which perfectly illuminated your face. To him, you looked absolutely stunning, perfect in his eyes.
His gaze which was once set on your eyes, moved down to your soft lips. You two haven’t kissed once in the relationship, but he was just waiting for you to be ready.
While you were waiting for the perfect moment.
There was no rushing this pure night, holding each other so close, that it felt impossible to be even closer.
You turned your head slightly, gazing up at the stars and the moon. “The moon.. it looks beautiful, doesn’t it?” You asked with a smile, gazing back into his crimson eyes.
“Never as beautiful as you.” He teased, but he wasn’t smirking—he was genuinely smiling.
Your face flushed, and with a huff, you shifted your gaze back to the sky.
“Hey..” he cooed, grabbing your chin gently so you would look back at him “you know I love you, right?”
Right then and there, your heart fluttered, and it felt as if a million butterflies were swarming in a tornado-like way inside of your stomach.
“Yeah..” was what you managed to reply, then whispering a “..I love you too.”
He smiled at you once more, his gaze trailing back to your lips. Oh how badly he wanted to kiss you, and you noticed. You noticed how he looked at your lips for a moment too long before flickering back to your eyes, but you took it as he might be a bit sleepy, and thought nothing of it.
Zen wanted to get frustrated, he wanted to be closer to you, but he just couldn’t. He wanted to be patient with you, he didn’t want you to run from him because he was rushing or being too pushy. But he just couldn’t stop himself from asking.
“Can I kiss you?”
Your entire face flushed bright red, as your eyes darted back to his. “What?” you uttered, thinking maybe you heard him wrong.
But this only made him even more determined.
“I said,” he murmured, reaching to caress your face in his hands. His hands felt soft against your skin, as if they were meant to hold you. “Can I kiss you?”
“I..” you were too flustered to speak, heart pounding in your chest—so loudly you thought he might hear it. It wasn’t for a while that you finally managed to give a shy nod, and that’s all it took for Zen.
Zen quickly leaned in, eager to feel his lips against yours, impatient to kiss you. He smiled when you let out a surprised squeak, but returned his kiss after a few moments. He pulled away, slowly and reluctantly, he felt his heart swell at the sight of you.
Your cheeks were flushed, and you were breathing a bit heavily from how flustered you were. It wasn’t long before he leaned back in, and kissed you once again.
It was perfect, you and him, kissing under the moonlight with no fangirls in sight, and no one there to bother you. Just Zen and his lovely partner, kissing under the blanket of stars.
(A/N) : I got so excited when I saw something in my inbox more like when I got the notification and I wanted to say thank you sm for requesting this! It was really fun to write, and if you want me to fix anything just say the word and I’ll make any adjustments you want! Sorry for writing so much in an author’s note, it’s just this is the first ask I’ve gotten and I’m really happy about it. :)
Also it’s proofread! I made sure to double check for spelling errors and grammar mistakes, so if I missed something hopefully I didn’t lmk! Also lmk if you want me to change smth in it, but overall tysm for requesting this.
