Chapter 3

... You couldn't sleep... you weren't able to shut your eyes. And what's worse is that it was near midnight. For some reason you still felt like someone was watching you and you felt that something might happen if you actually fell asleep and left yourself vulnerable. Maybe you weren't a heavy sleeper, but you just couldn't take the risk.

This can't be right can it? There are stories you read on Wattpad and Archive Of Our Own about people gaining this feeling of someone stalking them, but those were just in fanfictions, right? It'd be ridiculous to believe that stuff in fanfiction happens in reality... right?

You just laid there, wrapped in your blanket... then you threw it off of you. The thought of a stalker was still on your mind, but then the thought about why people hide under their blankets when there is one around. Like, would the stalker just be all 'I'm gonna get you-AH DAMNIT! He's under a blanket! Now I can't get him!'? Like, how would that even work?

Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to help you feel anymore comforted. What was it that was making you think that someone was still watching you?! Why would anyone stalk you? Maybe you should find something to take your mind off of it... a game, yeah that's it.

You went to your computer and decided to boot up Among Us. That was a game that could give you comfort. Eventually, your fear of a stalker began to turn to rage. You couldn't run a private server since all of your other friends were asleep and you every time you tried to join a public match, you either got a message saying the lobby was full, got kicked/banned for no reason, found a server where everyone left and the Imposters won, even one where the host refused to start the match.

This was enough to get you more annoyed and forget what you were so scared about earlier. Eventually, you decided to give up and you were about to leave before you got a message on Discord. It was from Danny.

How and why was he awake at this time? Oh right, he was in America. Different time over there. He was asking what you were doing up so late, since he knew how late it must've been here. You sighed before typing up a response.

You:

Hey Dan

I just have trouble sleeping tonight

Danny:

Really?

What's up, man?

You:
I don't know I just can't fall asleep

Danny:

Oh, that sucks

You wanna play something since you're up?

Portal 2 maybe? Among Us?

I've met a few guys that we connect to and play with

You thought about it and took a look out the window. Clearly there was no sign of you falling asleep anytime soon and he was the only friend you could really be comforted by at the time. Besides, maybe his friends there could help. So, you shrugged and typed a response.

You:

Yeah, sure

Danny:
To Portal 2 or Among Us?

You:
Among Us

Danny:

Alright, I'll see if the guys are online
You got proximity chat?

You:

No

Danny:

Okay, maybe we can just talk through Discord then

And so you grabbed your headphones and microphone and got ready to hop on. The friends he made over there were actually very helpful in helping you overcome your fear for the night and they were really nice people. You were happy to have at least one friend up at this time.

Unfortunately, staying up caught up to you and the next morning you were in your chair, asleep with a bubble from your nose. The warm sun coming through the window made it more easy to sleep and keep people from interrupting your slumber.

"(Y/N)!" Eric yells while snapping his fingers in front of your sleeping face. "Hey, (Y/N)! Are you okay?!" He kept snapping his fingers, but you gave no response. "Oh wow, he's really out of it."

"Well, leave him be. Who knows what the hell kept him up last night?" Lia tells him.

"I just don't see what could've happened to him. Maybe it was that gory picture of that murder the guy showed us, probably gave him nightmares or something."

"And who's fault was that exactly? You really need to give it a rest with that vigilante nonsense."

"Seriously?"

"Eric, if it's really affecting him like this, you really shouldn't just force us into searching for that."

"Alright, alright. I'll try to tone it down a bit." Eric then took a look to see you drooling a bit now. "Jeez, now I'm starting to feel bad if this is really my fault."

Then a girl started playing music out in the open.

The music she was playing was pretty lit though and it got a few students nearby dancing. Eric and Lia didn't join in, but it didn't seem to bother you or wake you up so they decided to ignore it for the time being.

https://youtu.be/JZglRmlpWxc

It wasn't obnoxiously loud and the teacher allowed her to play the music and was even secretly grooving to the song himself. They were jamming out to the music for a little while, but then it was getting close to class time and it had to come to an end.

"Alright, Emma..." The teacher says catching the girl's attention. 'Uh, class is about to start soon, so if you could just turn that off for me, I'd highly appreciate it. Thank you." He says before looking back at the bored. 

"MAKE HER!" A student stood up and yelled.

Then the teacher turned around and glared back at him. They stood there staring at each other with such intensity and not moving even an inch. Even the girl had started staring at the man not knowing what to do. Then the boy sat back down.

"Turn it off! TURN IT OFF!" He says to the girl as she turned off the song and dropped her phone on her desk.

The teacher just stared at her for a second before another student came in. "Hi is this Mr. Matrass' class?"

"Yeah, just take a seat wherever you like. We're gonna get started in a few seconds." The teacher told him.

"Oh, so I can just sit wherever?"

"Yeah, just sit down in any open spots. I don't do assigned seats."

"Okay... um..." He says before looking around and found an empty desk and took a seat there.

He then looked towards the teacher with a smile. "... Why didn't we just sit in chairs instead of sitting on the floor?" The other boy says to the girl before she looks down, remembering he and she didn't have chairs.

A little timeskip and we're in math class... the teacher was doing fine with the teaching before she heard snoring and crushed her chalk stick in her hand. The other students looked a little worried since they knew what that meant. You were snoring at your desk before a ruler smacked down on your desk breaking you out of sleep.

"(Y/N) (L/N)! Focus, and stop distracting the rest of the class!" She yelled at you, fed up.

"Alright, alright, I'm sorry!" You say before she walked back up. "Bitch..." You say under your breath... not low enough since the teacher threw a book at your face the next second.

School was finally over for the day and you could finally go home and get some sleep for now. When you got home, you texted your friends in the group chat that you were just gonna sleep for about an hour or so and before you could even get a reply, you crashed on your couch passing out immediately.

It was about time that you got to get out of exhaustion after dealing with a night of no sleep. Even if it was the couch wasn't as comfy as your bed, and form comfy-ness was something you'd accept. And while you slept, your little guest paid a visit while you were out... entering through your window.

Masane walked into your Livingroom and stood in front of you. She felt extremely bad, knowing that it was her that kept you up. She couldn't help but look saddened by how exhausted you really looked and wished she could make it up to you somehow.

"I'm so sorry my love, I didn't mean to make you end up like this." She says before moving her hand hand to your hand and running her fingers through your hair, retracting her claws so that she didn't cut you.

When she rubbed your hair she found herself unable to remove her hand. Not because it was stuck there, but because she couldn't find the need to take her hand away. The way your hair felt between her fingers left her mesmerized as she continued to rub your head softly.

Then a thought came to her mind. You would be out for a little bit with how exhausted you were and while it did seem risky, there wasn't anyone else around... Oh no, she wasn't going to do something like that, she at the very least wanted your consent... but that didn't mean she couldn't do something else.

She got onto the couch and straddled your unconscious body before lying herself down next to you. She was taller than you so your face was very close to her chest. You still didn't seem to wake by any means so she sighed, relieved that she didn't wake you up from your slumber.

But then suddenly, you unconsciously wrapped your arms around around her back, startling her before you pulled her closer, pushing your face between her breasts. You didn't even wake up or anything, but you snuggled into the two soft, warm pillows as they helped relax in your sleep.

She was surprised and shocked at first, but then smiled as she wrapped her arm around you and put a hand on the back of your head. She was happy that you were comfortable in her hold and while she wished that you could've known about it, but she had to accept that it'd have to be a while before she could do such a thing with you. She could wait though... she will wait.

(Later That Night)

After that slumber, you woke up. You weren't exhausted anymore. In fact, that felt like the most heavenly sleep you ever had in your entire life. It felt the best. You rose up from the couch and stretched and sighed. You were still a little sleepy, but you could shake it off.

Then you felt a sudden breeze before you looked around and spotted your window open. "What the-" You didn't bother to finish and just went to close the window.

You rubbed your head took a look outside, seeing it was already nighttime. You sighed, wondering how you could've slept through the entire day like this. Then you remember telling your friends that you were only gonna sleep for about an hour. You checked your phone and found that it wasn't blown up with texts, but there was one text.

Lia:
Hey, how are you feeling?

That was several hours ago and approximately one hour after you sent the text. You sighed and decided to respond even after so long.

You:
Yeah, sorry for taking so long

Lia:

...

Geez were you that tired?

You:
I don't know if I'm up to talking about it

Lia:

Well are ya up to hang?

Me, Izu and Tenya are going to the arcade

You:

Yeah, I guess I can come

And so, you went to get your jacket and head out to hang out with your friends now that you had some energy to drain again. It also felt better since there wasn't the feeling of anyone watching you.

(Meanwhile)

Eric was just taking a walk around town, reading the newspaper which was going on about the mysterious vigilante. There wasn't another murder however it talked about how they spoke with a girl who stated she was saved by her. They began to believe that there was someone impersonating Batman or something.

"Heh, Batman? Wait until they find out it was a girl this entire time." He says before putting the paper away then take a look around. "Hmm... kinda quiet out here tonight."

It was a bit odd, there wasn't anyone outside walking around and the lights in all the buildings were off. He would've expected at least one person to be out since it wasn't even that late. Though guess technically that one person was him and no one else.

"Hello?! Anyone!" He called out as if that was gonna get anyone out. "Well, so much for that."

He was gonna give you a call to see if you were up yet before he heard something. The nearby park had a lot metal noises coming from it and that peeked his curiosity as he ran over there. He found something he never thought he'd see, making his eyes widen upon the sight.

A group of robots were surrounding two woman. One with brown-hair and a white coat, the other with blue-hair and a red dress. The robots were making these weird noises as the two woman stood there calmly as if they didn't even care. Though, Eric couldn't see that.

"Woah... o-okay, I need to do something about this." He says before pulling out his phone, about to call 911.

But then a glow caught his eyes and he looked back to see the two ladies suddenly glowing. Then the light faded as two woman that stood there had their appearances changed entirely. They looked like that woman that the man showed a picture of yesterday only with blue and white instead of red and grey.

He stared for a bit before they finally moved and started attacking the robots, to which the red-head quickly set his phone to record, aiming it right them. He stood mouth agape at what he was seeing and moved a little bit to stay hidden so they couldn't see him.

"Holy shit... this... is... gold." He says as he stayed where he was recording the whole thing.

When it was finally over, all that was left was scraps and white liquid from the robots. The woman then stood in front of each other, speaking about something but the boy couldn't hear. He wanted to get closer, but he didn't want to risk getting caught.

He stood there for a bit, still recording them before they eventually left the area by jumped through the air. He tried to get as much as he could left of them, but they were gone and out of sight in no time. Then he stopped recording and stood up.

"Damn... I can't believe I caught that all on camera... I-I gotta show this to them. They're gonna flip when they hear about this." Eric says before running off.

As he was running, he made a call to none other than you and had finally gotten into a part of the city where there was lights on and he stopped at a crosswalk sign. As he was waiting for the sign to change and say that he could walk and looked at his watch before you finally picked up.

"Hello?"  You say on the other end.

"Hey, hey, (Y/N), you're not gonna believe what happened!" He says before you sighed.

"What is it, Eric?" 

"First of all, I'm glad to hear that you're feeling better and more awake..." He says while you rolled your eyes knowing you didn't even tell him how you were right now. "Second, I've got some footage that you're gonna wanna see. Umm." The boy then took note of the crosswalk sign. "Gotta go, I'll show you tomorrow." He says before hanging up.

"Eric?" He then hears before turning and noticing a familiar looking car. "What are you doing out this late? Not doing things I wouldn't do, are ya?" A red-haired boy says jokingly.

Eric didn't say anything but then found his words. "R-Ray, hey! Uh... not really." He says before walking over.

"Well, where ya headed now, little bro?" The other boy asked.

"Just heading back home. Do you think you could give me a ride?"

"Yeah, sure. I'm headin' by there anyway so I can give ya a lift. Hop on in."

"Thanks." Eric says as he gets in on the passenger side. "It's kinda been a crazy night."

"Wanna talk about it?"

"Well, not exactly."

"Aight, won't bother ya about it." Ray says as he started driving.

(The Next Day)

Eric was rushing to school before he took out his phone and looked over the footage he got. He stopped to catch his breath. He finally had proof and he wanted to show you, however there was something else. You would no doubt believe him, though something caught his eyes. He found a car with a similar looking man he saw and thought of an idea.

He ran over to the car and tapped at the window, startling him a bit. "You gotta be kidding me." The man says on the other side before rolling it down. "What is it now, kid? I'm not showing you anymore pictures."

"No, no, I'm not here to ask you about more pictures. Look, I saw something that happened last night and it was beyond insane." The boy told him which made his eyes widen a bit.

"Wait, like a murder?"

"Almost a murder. Almost. I know it doesn't sound like much, but trust me, I got it all on video, and I think you're gonna wanna see this."

Eric then pulled out his phone and showed him the footage. Upon seeing the video, the man's eyes widened further as it was going.

"Crazy, right? This was what happened last night. I was about to call 911, but then they went and did all this and... you get the idea."

"Well, this does look pretty irrefutable. Did you show this to your friends?"

"Not yet, but I'm going to. They are gonna have their minds blown when they see this."

"I don't know about that, kid." The man then says as Eric looks confused. "Just saying, if they didn't believe me when I showed them."

"I mean yeah, but there's no way they're gonna think otherwise. I literally recorded this all happening."

"Maybe they will, maybe they won't. If they don't believe you though, they're gonna think you're crazy."

"And how exactly?"

"Well, have you tried speaking or anything in the video?"

"Yeah, right here." Eric then starts the clip then goes to the part where he says "Holy shit... this... is... gold." But when he went to the part, his voice couldn't be heard. "Wait, what?" He says before listening closer. "Wha-what the-? I couldn't have had my voice that low, could I?"

"Yeah, you can probably guess at this point that they might think you just downloaded the video."

"Ugh... what do you think I should do then?"

"Well, don't delete the footage for one thing. It might be useful later anyway." The man says, about to start his car.

"Wait, hold on!" Eric then grabbed his door real quick. "Listen, I know I seem like a pest to you with how I'm acting and all this, but I really wanna prove that this vigilante woman really exists. Look, I want to get as much evidence as I can get. So is it alright if I... I don't know help you or something?"

The man then laughed a bit before looking at the boy. "Wait, you're serious?"

"Yes!"

He looked around then thought for a moment. "Well, I guess I could use someone for video evidence. I'll think about it kid, but I can't make any promises. Eric, right?"

"Huh? How do you-?"

"Your friend called you that when I showed you the picture." The man then started his car. "Call me Tozawa. You can find me at Marry's Gallery Dining Bar." Then he drove off, creating more dusts making him cough.

"Ah, jeez. Does he need to go that fast?" Eric says before thinking.

His friends, and specifically you, didn't seem to be believing the evidence shown, that's for sure. So he started to wonder if he should even show you guys the footage. Maybe he should've done something like show his face in the video, though his voice wasn't loud enough to be heard in the recording.

He was contemplating on whether or not he should show it and just sighed, thinking that maybe it was best to keep to himself for now. Then he started running back so that he could make it to class before he was late.

When he arrived, you were already talking with Lia. He was still thinking on whether he should show you or not and was thinking that before walking over to his seat. When he did, you nudged him a bit.

"Hey, Eric. What was it you wanted to show me exactly?"

"Huh?... O-oh, right. I got it all on video, let me show you." He then walked in front of you and showed you his phone. "Look, it is abso... What the?..." He then says before looking through his phone. "Where is it?... I-I had it. It was right here! D-did I forget to record or something?!"

"Looks like it. What was it supposed to be?" You asked as he opened his mouth, about to say something.

"Nevermind." He says before going and sitting in his seat.

"So much for that." Lia sighed.

A boy walked over to a seat before stopping as he saw someone already in the seat and frowned. "You got a problem?" The other boy asked.

"I mean you're kinda sitting in my seat."

"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't see your name on it."

"Okay, I mean-"

"Yeah, that's not his seat." The teacher then says. "You already know there's no assigned seats in my class, so please, take a seat."  

"Yeah, take a seat." The boy in the chair says obnoxiously.

"But that's my seat! That's the seat I was sitting-"

"YOU GO SIT YOUR ASS DOWN!" The teacher yelled at him.

"Yeah, sit your ass down!" The boy in the chair says again.

"Who do you think your talking to?!" The boy standing asked before he saw him smack his chest. "Oh you know what?!" He then looked over to the bag on the ground. "Mine!"

"HEY WHAT YOU DOING?! Give me back my bag!" The boy in the chair yelled.

"Woah, who had it first?" The teacher asked.

"I mean it wasn't in his hand so I put it in mine." The standing boy says.

"Oh, that makes sense. It's his."

"No, it's mine! You see me walk in here with that bag!" The boy in the chair says.

"But look, he got to it first. There's assigned bags in this class, we take turns."

"Sharing is caring." The standing boy says before Emma reached for her bag and hugged it so no one would take it.

"Oh you must be crazy if you think I'm sharing my bag-AGH!" The sitting boy screamed in pain while grabbing his head. Then when he looked up, he saw that the standing by had ripped out of piece of his hair. Then he looked at the teacher who wasn't doing anything. "YOU JUST GONNA LET HIM DO THAT?!"

"No assigned dreads." The teacher just says.

"WHAT?! IT WAS ATTACHED TO MY DAMN HEAD!"

"That's weird, I don't see your name on it." The standing boy says while looking at it.

"As I see it... you probably should've put your name on it." The teacher says again as a random boy ties a bag over his head.

"Okay, y'all trippin' now. GIVE ME BACK MY HAIR!" The sitting boy got up and ripped the hair out of the other boy's hand.

"No, hey, give him back his hair!" The teacher yelled.

"But it's my damn hair!"

"GIVE HIM BACK HIS DREAD!" The teacher yelled once again.

The other boy starts to look upset before he gave in and handed him the piece of hair before sitting back down. "This stupid." The standing boy looked happy again and put the piece of hair on top of his head.

"I'm here to drop off my son's lunch." Then a woman walked through the door. "He forgot it at home."

"Yeah mom, I'm over here." The sitting boy says as he crossed his arm.

"... Oh, here you go." The mom then says as she hands the bag to the standing boy.

"Thank you."

"WHAT?! THAT'S MY MOM!" The sitting boy screamed.

"WOAH! You gotta calm down with that 'my' word." The teacher tells him. "There's no assigned parents."

"There's no assigned parents. SHUT UP! What's going on in this class?!"

"I'm starting to notice something. If he wants something, he goes for it. What are you doing?"

"Well, I didn't know I had to claim my own mother! So what?! He's my brother now?!"

"As I see it, she's not even your mom anymore, so y'all not brothers."

"THAT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE! You can't just get rid of one child and upgrade to a new one! That's not how life goes!" The boy then points at the woman before yelling again. "Hey you, I'M YOURS!"

"Alright, Imma just go. Imma see you at home. Love you." The woman says to the other boy before walking out.

"Love you too." Standing boy says as he puts the piece of hair back on his head while staring back at the one who's sitting.

"It seems like y'all problems started over a chair. There's only one way to solve this issue." The teacher says as the boys glared at each other.

(Small Timeskip)

"I've been wanting to do this since the first time I saw you."

"Just to let you know, you're not gonna beat me."

"I've been training all my life for this moment."

"And Imma bout to show you how much you've wasted your life."

"Nah, you don't stand a chance."

"I have never lost at one of these."

"Alright, just wait and see until-"

Then the standing boy tried to run for the seat before the sitting boy quickly grabbed the seat and pulled it away, causing him to land right on his ass. "DAMNIT!" He yelled before the sitting boy sat back in the seat grinning like an idiot.

You, Eric and Lia saw the whole thing and were thinking. 'What the hell is going on with this class.'

To be continued...

Okay, is anyone getting the references I'm putting in? Cause I feel like no one understands what these references are that I'm putting in.
