Work Text:
“So that is exercise 17.2B done, class will now end. Please make sure to do all your assignments by tomorrow and do note, there will be a test of everything about proteins tomorrow. Regardless, bye for today, students!”
It was what mafuyu heard before finally packing her bag and leaving. To say she’s exhausted would be an understatement but, she doesn't care enough to feel it. She just feels the same as she always does with nothing out of the ordinary.
“tomorrow is a saturday, i don't have normal school. i guess i can focus on my cram school work then.”
She walked back home, ate dinner and went to her room. But, she felt that sensation again.
“i feel, weird again. last time i did, meeting her made it better. maybe it will again..”
She had some friends in the music group but, they weren't online yet. And they didn't ease the weirdness the same way, something about her was just, special. She didn't know why, it just was.
“hello mafuyu” She greeted her the same way she always does
“are you okay mafuyu? you seem not right?”
“i dont know… i feel weird again”
“is it in your chest?”
“it is. it feels, cold. i don't like it…”
Miku pouted, she felt bad for her and wondered what she could do to ease up that girl.
She wondered and wondered till eventually, she just put her hand onto her chest.
“miku?”
“yes mafuyu? is that bad? im sorry if it is..”
“no.. i don't know but, it made it less cold”
It helped. Mafuyu was a complex person, to say the least, and it's hard to help her. So Miku always had to find some odd ways to comfort her. It looked like touching was working.
she smiled a bit and approached closer to her. The 2 were sitting on a platform in the emptiness of the sekai all alone but, this act made both just a little bit less alone.
“do you want to touch me with the other hand too?”
“oh, i was thinking about it. can i?”
“i think. it would be nice i think”
She put her other hand on the purple girl’s back, while looking right into her eyes. Even if everything was as voided as it was, it felt lively too. She ran her hand across her body and shoulder trying to comfort her.
“miku?”
“hm? what happened?”
“your hair looks so, intriguing i think. can i feel it?”
“you can if you want, its okay”
This continued for a moment. The 2 girls kept embracing the other and looking each other in the eyes. The weird feeling seemed to have gotten away. Eventually, Miku put her head onto Mafuyu's shoulder. It made mafuyu feel something really special which was rare for her.
“huh..”
“mafuyu?”
“miku.. i think i like you.. i don't know why but, you make me feel something. i think i like you”
Miku smiled, knowing at least for this moment, she was comforted. There was a lot going on for her but the 2 could always, inside this emptiness, find each other and share a moment. It was really nice.
