After many hours later, Sunz finally wakes up. He is a bit groggy but this time is able to move all of his limbs.
Sunz (ugh! This light is killing my eyes.) makes his way to the light switch and shuts off all of the lights. Standing in the comfort of darkness for 10 minutes. Everything is quiet except for his mind.
…
Sunz: That’s better *turns on the light*… *looks around* hmm everyone is gone. They all have their own stuff to do and it is already night *check phone* of the next day… it's midnight.
“Wow, I’ve been sleeping for nearly 2 days. I guess it was pretty convenient, and now only less than 12 hours before my match against Grimm.”
“But need to get this out of my way first.”
*Calling number*
*Ring Ring…Ring Ring… Ring Ring…Ring Ring…Ring-*
Grace’s sleepy voice: hello? this is Grace, alone, surrounded by the cold and now I have to talk with you.
Sunz (Is she angry?): I don’t know if you are being serious or just fucking with me.
Grace:…*hang up*
Sunz: I fuck up!... Should I even call her back tho? (Fuck!) Why do I care about this so much? She is into me, not the opposite.
(Well, she is the second woman that allows you to act like yourself.)
“I act like how I am most of the time even without her.”
(She is a nice girl with perks like, better than you in every way, physically especially.)
“I don’t know Brain, all that still doesn’t add up for me to like her.”
(You know why they don’t add up, because you are a Bitch. If you care about her you will tell her what is on your mind now.)
“Fuck you Brain!”
(Fuck you too Mouth!)
*After arguing with himself for a bit Sunz receives a call from Grace*
*Answer*
Sunz: Hey Grace thank you for calling me bac-
Grace’s muffled voice: Just get to the point, you have 5 seconds, if nothing comes out I’ll hang up.
Sunz: Ok, I want to talk with you about our relationship and my answer for it.
Grace’s muffled voice: Just don’t, if your answer is Yes… I don’t think I’ll accept it. I don’t want you to feel like I forced you into this one-sided relationship.
Sunz: I don’t care. You hearing my answer is the best and only option for our relationship.
Grace’s muffled voice: You’re horrible and a coward. About to say thing behind a cover instead of saying it to my face.
Sunz: The plan was to see if you’re awake then ask for permission to talk with you face to face. Telling my answer through the phone was never an option.
*Balcony’s door slides open, and a rush of cold wind blasts into the room and Sunz’s back*
Grace: Now say it. *hang up*
“I am here!”
Sunz turned around and saw Grace standing in his room with a stern look on her face.
Stolen novel; please report.
Grace: Speak now!
Sunz throws his phone onto the bed: Ok, I’m ready.
“Grace, I don’t think that I like you. But I enjoy having you around. You are smart, strong, have amazing outfits, and a terrifying personality. I know I want to be more than friend but for some reason, my heart can’t feel anything…”
“After all of that, I see that my answer is No but I don’t want to say that. I want to be with you because of the future. I know that we live in a dangerous world, if I were in a relationship with someone weaker than you, I would worry about them a lot but I won’t always be able to protect them.”
“With you, I know that I will still be worrying about your safety but at least I know that you’ll be alive the next morning… if I’m going to think further, our child will have the best protection.”
“That’s all. Wheew!”
(I feel so good now.)
Grace:..
*walks close to Sunz and hugs him, burying his face in her chest*
“how do they feel?”
Sunz: They feel soft and cold.
Grace: Thank god this arc is finally over. *pull Sunz away*
Sunz: What?
Grace: Thank you Sunz’s teacher for pushing him to make a decision.
Sunz: Ok what with the mood swing?
Grace: What mood swings? I’m still your normal, terrifying now official girlfriend.
Sunz: Then who was the sleepy head that broke through the balcony with an angry face?
Grace: I was fucking with you! Hehe!
Sunz: Sure… so how long were you out on the balcony?
Grace: An hour or two, looking at the city and the sky, didn’t expect you would wake up while I was out there. First was standing in the dark then arguing with yourself. You are as strange as always.
Sunz moves his arm to reach Grace’s hand on his shoulder, slowly grabbing it and moving it off his shoulder then holding it firmly.
Sunz: Something was on your mind right?
Grace: No, I’m fine. Everything has already been resolved, our relationship, my boobs.
Sunz: You… sure? You still emitting a cold aura after I confessed.
Grace: It-it’s nothing!
*pulling her hand away but accidentally pulling Sunz close to her*
Sunz: You are nervous. It seems this arc isn’t over yet. Time for you to confess. For once, we both need to act like adults.
Grace: I-I… I HAVE A NIGHTMARE! Fuck! I can’t say it.
*Biting her lip*
Sunz releases his hold on Grace’s hand and just stands there.
Grace: I’m sorry. I wish I could have more courage.
*sit down on the floor in defeat*
Sunz walks past her, making some rustling noise then…
Grace felt something draped around her shoulder and covering the light above her, then she felt Sunz leaning his back against her.
She moved her hand to her shoulder and felt a familiar material.
“This-this is your Windbreaker.”
Sunz: Yes. You now have a part of me. I hope it can give you some of my courage.
Grace: That line is so corny. Where did you even steal it from?
Sunz: A combination of many dialogues from things I enjoy.
Grace: Haizz, you are funny in a strange way.
…
Sunz: Ready to tell me about the nightmare?
Grace:…I saw you with other women. I thought I made you mad with my question about my boobs. So my mind just assumes that you hate my appearance and me.
“I saw so many moments of you just enjoying life with other women that aren’t me.”
“I was jealous. I was crying inside and outside.”
“Then I woke up with No Name comforting me.”
Sunz: I think it was a good thing for you to have that nightmare.
Grace: What? Why?
Sunz: It’s a sign showing that you’ll be a wonderful partner to me like those women. Or you were only seeing the final good moments I had with those women before breaking up. Now it’s your turn to break that cycle, give me a happy ending.
“Turn your nightmare into something positive.”
Grace: What if it’s the reverse, those women should be with you, not me?
Sunz: Well, those women aren’t real but you are. So, you have the upper hand.
...
Grace *laugh*: Thank you. You are not bad with words. So why aren’t you more popular?
Sunz: I don’t like to be the initiator.
Grace *processing information*: Which means, if I didn’t talk with you at the start of the tournament then this relationship wouldn’t exist.
Sunz: True.
Grace: You ok now? Have nothing else on your mind?
Sunz: Me? I should be the one asking you that. I have nothing else to worry about.
Grace: That’s good to hear. Me too!
Sunz stood up and tried to lift Grace up but was unable to.
Grace: Oh wow, your weak-ass body is turning me on.
Sunz: Ha ha very funny. I know I’m weak.
Grace *stands up*: You sure are. Can I wear your ‘Windbreaker’ a bit longer?
Sunz looks at Grace:…
Grace: Really, you’re that selfish!
Sunz: No no, it’s just I really like this look on you. Your black dress then my ‘Windbreaker’.
Grace: Oh my, that actually does turn me on... Wearing your ‘Windbreaker’ like this does make me feel like a pirate.
Sunz: Hmm, I think you’re right.
*Both tummies growling loudly*
Grace: Wow that turns off the mood… Oh well, you haven’t eaten in a long time, so makes sense.
Sunz: yeah… what about you? Yours was also really loud.
Grace: Ah…yeah…I also…haven’t eaten after the nightmare. Wah wah waaahhh.
Sunz: So where should we go?
Grace *dials her phone*
…
Grace: Hey Su! Is your shop still open? I want to swing by with Sunz.
Su: Sure! Only you two? Is it a date?
Grace: Yeah! We just became official!
Su: Ok. I’ll see you soon! Bye!
Grace: BYE!
*Call end*
Sunz: We are visiting C.C Cafe again.
Grace: But this time it’s just the two of us.
“First official date!”
Sunz: You have such a crazy mood swing.
Grace: Well, deal with it. Hehe!
