15 - Bonding
Alex POV
Alex: "So, do you have any questions?"
Asui: "I actually have one: I remember seeing you both in the USJ and at Nora's funeral, are you maybe related to her?"
Alex: (shit) "Well..."
Iida: *doing robot gestures* "Asui, it is not polite to ask such things!"
Alex: "No, it's okay. Nora was my step-sister, I was adopted by the Allen family, so we weren't actually blood related."
Asui: "Oh...I'm sorry, I didn't know."
Alex: "It's okay, really. Listen, I have to go out really quick, I hope you don't mind."
Momo: "No, of course, you can go."
Alex: "Thanks." *walks out of the dorms*
(I won't let that old man take my family away from me. I have to set up an observation spot.)
Narrator POV
As Alex walked away, a frown was on everyone's faces, they were worried they hit a nerve with that question
Asui: "Sometimes I wish I could just shut my mouth."
Ochaco: *walks by* "Don't worry, Tsu, you didn't know."
Momo: "Midoriya, can I ask you a question?"
Izuku: "Of course."
Momo: "I saw a strange look on his face, did Nora mean something more to him?"
Everyone's attention was on Izuku
Izuku: *with his hand behind his neck* "Well, it's not up to me to answer that specifically, but Nora was very special to him. It has been hard for him since it happened."
Mina: "We should do something for him to apologise."
Kyouka: "Yeah, you're right. We should think of something."
Alex POV
I built an observation spot on a roof to make sure Eobard wouldn't try anything on my family.
(Okay, all set, now I must be vigil, you won't take my family away Eobard, you'll have to kill me first)
Narrator POV
In Kyouka's room
Kyouka: "Argh dammit!"
Mina: "What's wrong, Kyo?"
Kyouka: "I was thinking to write a new song, but I just can't put my finger on it, and that makes me piss off!"
Mina: "Wow, I never saw you so frustrated about a song, what makes this occasion so special?"
Kyouka: (SHIT SHIT SHIT) *blushes* "I-I'll tell you only if you promise not to laugh!"
Mina: "I won't. Promise."
Kyouka: "Okay, so... *blushes* ...I was thinking of writing it for Alex, since he's into music..."
Mina: (damn you, Kyouka, how am I supposed to keep up with that!) "Wow, it's so sweet. Kyo, do you...maybe...like him?"
Kyouka: "Wha- N-No! I-I don't-"
Mina: "Kyo..."
Kyouka: "Argh! Alright, I might like him a bit, so I'm writing this stupid song for him! Please don't tell anybody!"
Mina: "Hey, it's okay, I won't tell a living soul!" (I have to think of something too)
Kyouka: "Thank you, Mina. Do you think he...could like me back?"
Mina: "You have all the cards Kyo, don't worry."
Kyouka: "I don't know...there are so many pretty girls in this class, including you...why would he end up choosing me?"
Mina: "Listen, in any case you should know that you're beautiful as well, don't demeanor yourself." (I'll have to wait and see if he feels something for her. I can't hit on him knowing what Kyouka thinks)
Little did Kyouka know that every girl in her class liked the new boy, Alex, who, in the meantime, had started to go back, not noticing anything suspicious.
Alex POV
(Okay, nothing. That's a good sign, now I should go back before anyone gets too worried or suspicious)
Alex: *speeds towards the entrance, opens the door* "Hi everyone!"
Iida: "Hi Alex, is everything alright?"
Alex: "Yes, thanks. Anyway ehm, none of you told me your names."
During the presentations I had to act as I didn't already know everybody there.
Kyouka: "Ehm...h-hey Alex, c-can I talk to you in private?"
Alex: "Uhh sure...Kyouka, right?"
Kyouka: "Y-Yeah... (he remembered...)
After that she led me to her room, at my surprise she was all into music
Alex: "Woah...you have a really cool room, Kyo! Can you play all of these instruments?"
Kyouka: "Y-Yeah..." (HE FRIGGIN' CALLED ME A NICKNAME!!!)
Alex: "Are you okay? You are all red."
Kyouka: "Y-Yes, don't worry! Anyway I...kinda have something for you..."
Alex: "Oh, okay, what is it?"
Kyouka: *not able to look directly in his eyes* "A...a song. I wrote it for you to apologise about what happened."
Alex: "Wow, Kyo, this is...thanks! It wasn't really necessary, but thanks. Do you want to sing it, so I can listen to it now?"
Kyouka: "Ehm...I don't know...my voice isn't the best..."
Alex: "Nonsense! I'm sure you have the voice of an angel, c'mon."
Kyouka: "O-Okay..." (okay, here goes nothing...)
Alex: "Woah..."
Kyouka: *looking away from him* "Did you...l-like it?"
Alex: "Like it? I loved it, Kyo, you're amazing!"
Kyouka: "R-Really?!" (OMG HE SAID I'M AMAZING!)
Alex: "Of course! One of these days we must practice together!"
Kyouka: "Y-You play?"
Alex: "Yes, the guitar. Hey, we could even write a song now that I think about it!"
Kyouka: "Do you mean it?"
Alex: "Of course! I've never met another person that actually plays, so I'm not wasting the occation, but only if you agree."
Kyouka: "Yes, I would love to!"
Alex: "Perfect. Now excuse me but I'm kinda starving, it was good to talk and especially listen to you, Kyo."
Kyouka: "It was good for me too."
Alex: *exits from her room* (finally someone who plays! I'm sure we'll be good friends, I could really use more friends)
Kyouka: (OH MY GOD HE WANTS TO WRITE A SONG WITH ME!!! Okay, calm down, Kyouka...he gave you a nickname, he said you're amazing, he wants to write a song with you, he said you're amazin- wait I already thought that...OH MY GOD I TOTALLY FELL FOR HIM!!!)
Narrator POV
As much as Alex wanted to have a friend and start over, he was still haunted by ghosts: his mistake was too big to let him forgive himself for what happened to Nora, and while he kept a facade, while he was alone and not forced to lie to anybody around, he felt incredibly sick and disgusted in himself and his powers. He wanted to bury them deep down and never bring them up again, but someone had a different plan for him...
??? POV
???: "You can't deny what you are. As much as you hate yourself, you don't know how important you are. We'll soon meet eachother, son of Thawne.
A/N: Hi fellow readers, I'm writing this message in case you didn't catch up with the updates of the first two chapters. For everyone who didn't re-read those two, Nora's face has changed, as well as Alex's
Alex
Nora
As I explained, I have a valid reason: future projects, I hope you don't mind, it'll be worth it. 😉
Enjoy your reading ❤
