Chap.20: Naps (Shu x Chloe)
Chloe's POV:
Right after the whole Ayato and Beth incident happened and Natalie and Kanato got back from somewhere that I don't know of, we all head back to where we are. Before I head back to the living room, I went to the bathroom first clear things out of my mind. Things have gone worst during our stay with Ayesha and her grandmother. It's been seriously a huge pain in the ass tonight. As I was washing my face, I gaze at the mirror intently.
Damn...First, we got a brawl between Subaru and Kira. Then, we saw Ayato and Beth giving each other death glares. Now, we noticed Natalie has gone quiet ever since she and Kanato got back at some place that I didn't know about. Jeez this night has been rough hasn't it?
I thought as I grab a towel next to me to dry my face off. Then I slam the towel back to the rack and left the bathroom looking exasperated right now. I'm so not in the mood right now while strolling through the halls. This is getting confusing, just why are the Sakamaki brothers here in our world? Do they have a motive? What do they want?
Soon I stopped to realized what I'm thinking and I pinched my forehead.
Great, now I'm acting like Jamie. Sure I'm being blunt about it, but this makes zero sense. How did they get here? Guess I'll have to be like Jamie and get to the bottom of this myself. One of them has reason and I must find out why.
I thought to myself while walking. As I entered the living room, I spotted Shu lying on the couch sleeping as always. Unsurprisingly, I sighed and went to a chair to sit where it took me a minute to talk to him.
"...Shu."
"Hm?" He opened one eye when he heard my voice.
"You and your brothers, how did you guys get here? In our world I mean." I asked curiously as Shu shrugged his shoulders and yawned a bit.
"Reiji was working on an experience in his room the other day, but...it ended up terribly and we ended up transported to this strange world...and that's when we met you and your friends. We knew right away that you guys are the ones that knew who we are since Reiji put a spell on everyone in your school." He explained.
"Huh, so that's why you moved to next to our house suddenly." I understood as he nod at me.
"Yeah, the triplets told us about you guys and the reason why we moved to your house is because we believed that you and your friends are the ones who summoned us here." He told me which had me confused and I turn my head with a puzzled look.
"What are you talking about? We didn't-"
I paused for a minute when something in my mind popped up and I realized what he meant. It was us that summoned them....
"Last night..." I muttered and Shu opened his other eye as he pulled his earbuds out. He turned his head gaining my attention for once.
"Hm? What about it?" He asked confusingly as he rises up from the couch. I balled my fists together against my knees remembering what we've done last night.
"We were having a slumber party and...we were all joking about wishing to meet you guys, but...we didn't expect to have you guys appeared in our school..." I told him feeling heat sensation through my cheeks regretting what "wished" last night. Out of nowhere, Shu chuckled softly forming a smirk on his face.
"So it's basically wishful thinking?" He asked with a smirk.
"I guess..." I mumbled while blushing like a tomato and Shu chuckled even more.
"So why would you want to meet me? You think I'm handsome or something?" He asked in a teasing tone making me even blush more and turn away.
"N-No, we were joking last night...It's not like I want this to be a dream come true...a-and I don't think like that at all..." I mumbled while blushing a lot.
"That's not what your face says." He pointed out smirking at me as I sunk my head down to the ground feeling embarrassed.
"S-Shut up..." I shyly retorted.
"Look at that, yes I can see you blushing.~" He teased with a sly smirk causing steam to come out of my ears because I'm a hot mess right now.
Jesus Christ! This reminds when Shu teases Yui in the bathroom! Ugh why does have to be so damn sexy when doing that?!
I thought while blushing very hard earning a light chuckle from the lazy blonde.
"You're so easy to read." He snickered and a red vein popped from my head looking agitated when he chuckles at my reaction.
"And you're enjoying too much." I grumbled frowning at him, but he shrugs nonchalantly.
"Meh whateve, I was bored anyway." He replied and I rolled my eyes at him. Soon Shu's smile disappears and went back to his stoic expression.
"So when are you going to upload?" He asked curiously.
"Huh?" I looked confused at the moment.
"You know, your next cover on YouTube. I've been listening to your song covers since we got here...I don't know, I just got curious." He told me and to be honest I was kinda surprise when he asked me about my song covers. Usually Shu would never ask people about their hobbies, but this is quite a shock to me. Then Shu noticed my surprise look.
"What?" He asked as I blink and shook my head.
"Sorry, it's just...this is the second time you've asked me about my music...the first time you asked was at the cafeteria." I demurely said.
"And what's wrong with that?" He asked a bit bluntly and I shrugged my shoulders.
"Nothing, I just felt flattered when you asked me. No one has ever asked or complimented my music before. It was...quite nice." I told him with a small grin. Shu shrugged calmly.
"It's not that of a big deal, I just felt like it cuz I've become invested with your work and you seem to put a lot of effort on recording videos of your songs on YouTube. I applaud you for that." He thanked me which shocks me.
"Umm okay...thanks?..." I replied feeling weirded out cuz I never heard Shu the lazy vampire praising me for my song covers. I scratched the back of my head awkwardly.
"..But it didn't go viral, my videos only got 66 views." I mumbled feeling very shy, but he rolled his eyes.
"Who cares about views, your music matters the most okay? Keep that in mind." He reassured me causing me to feel astonished yet touched by his kind words.
"Well...ummm....thank you Shu. I appreciate your support..." I thanked him while looking surprised as he nods his head.
"It's no big deal..." He calmly said as he puts his earbuds back to his ears. Suddenly something popped in my mind for reason when I got off the chair and I sat next to him on the couch so I could asked him.
"So what music do you listen to? Besides my song covers..." I shyly asked as Shu smirked a bit and led me his left earbud.
"Why won't you take a hint?" He asked as I took his earbud and put it into my left ear where I heard soothing and gentle melodies from the MP3 player.

Relaxed by the peaceful tone, I turned to Shu with a gentle smile.
"Nice melody." I complimented as he nods at me.
"Yeah." He replied and he caught me off guard when he grabbed my wrist and pulled me into a warm embrace surprising me.
"Umm Shu-
"Shhhhhh relax...just relax...." He mumbled before he falls asleep while wrapping his arms around me. I was about go against it, but the soft classical melody stopped me from doing so and my eyes fluttered. Finding myself tired, I let out a soft yawn and I fell to his chest with a grin falling deeply into slumber with all the irritation that I had earlier disappeared from my mind.
I guess...this night isn't that bad after all...
