Chapter Text
BANG BANG BANG!!
nathan jolted awake, his hand reaching for his side table where he kept a blade (don’t ask). he crept towards the window, where the sound had come from. he slowly pulled away the curtains, and untensed at the sight of the noise maker. with a reluctant sigh, nathan opened the window.
“what the hell are you doing here?” nathan whisper-yelled.
“i’m visiting you!” yuki responded joyfully.
“yuki, it’s 2:00am, and your supposed to be in the psych ward.”
“i-“
“you escaped didn’t you?”
“maybe….” yuki smiled weakly. “can you let me in? i’m going to fall. you realize your room is kinda hard to get to with it being on the top floor?”
“fine.” nathan pulled the window up all the way, allowing yuki entrance.
yuki was still dressed in her scrubs from the ward, and nathan was wearing an old t-shirt with black shorts. great first impression after 2 weeks.
“you got a cigarette?” yuki asked. “i’ve been dying for one.”
“yeah, hold on.” nathan rummaged through his desk drawer and pulled out a cigarette and a lighter. “here you go.” he said while handing yuki the cigarette and lighter.
“thanks man.” yuki smiled while lighting the cigarette. “by the way, do you still have that bag i gave you when i was first admitted?”
“uh yeah.” nathan said skeptically. “it’s in my closet, let me get it.”
“thanks dude!” yuki said while taking a hit. she frowned when she saw that the cigarette was already burnt out.
“catch!” nathan said while throwing the bag at her.
“thanks!” yuki said while smothering the cigarette in the ash tray near nathan’s window.
with that, yuki went into nathan’s bathroom and changed. while yuki was doing that, nathan pulled his phone off its charger. he didn’t actually think he’d ever utilize it, but he typed maeve’s number into the message bar. he texted a single message.
“can i talk to you in the morning?”
yuki exited the bathroom with black ripped jeans and a oversized hello kitty t-shirt that might’ve included every single color imaginable on the brightest setting.
“i’m going to sleep aight?” yuki said, already laying down on the couch in the far corner of the room. “night!”
“night.” nathan said.
with that, nathan plugged his phone back in, got back into his sheets, and went to bed.
