“What do you think clouds taste like?’’
You didn't get a real answer, only a groaned response from Mikey when you stopped combing your fingers through his hair. Mikey–who was almost asleep seconds prior–looked up at you and groaned again when you didn't take the hint and placed your palm back on his head himself before settling back on your lap to look at said clouds.
You nudged him lightly, drawing out his name to get him to pay attention to you instead of the sleep he was hoping for. “Mikeyyyy, come on, answer me. What do you think clouds taste like?”
He looked at you through his lashes, a hum instead of a groan coming from him and as a reward you gingerly went back to playing with his hair.
“water…dirty water at that”
“Hmm, I don't think so. Why would a cloud taste like water of all things?”
“No there not” you say confidently albeit a bit confused as to the answer mikey gave “clouds aren’t water so i dont think they’d taste like it”
Mikey sat up then, letting your hand fall from the top of his head “clouds are made up of water, that's why when it rains the clouds disappear”
His explanation somehow caused you too look even more confused and Mikey had to get on his knees to look you in the eye to see if you were messing with him.
“No waters that moving stuff”
“Right. Water makes up the clouds you see in the sky though”
“Those don't look like water to me” you look up, missing the way Mikey's brows furrow.
It wasn't like Mikey didn't know you were a little slow up the hill so to speak and it wasn't like Mikey wasn't consistently around dumb asses all day long but still, maybe he shouldn't have been dragging you off to ditch school with him all these years.
“What's wrong?” you ask after a deep sign leaves Mikey and he brings you into a hug before settling back into your lap, a silent vow to himself he’ll keep protecting his dumb little girlfriend.
“Don’t worry about it, baby”
“What's this for?” Draken raises one of his blonde brows at you after you so gently placed your multi-colored hoody on his shoulders “I dont wanna get grease on it, take it off” you only sniffled in response, causing Draken to take his eyes off fixing his bike and onto you. “You’re–what the hell's the matter with you today?”
“I just don't want you to be stuck anymore” you whine out and Draken had to hold himself back from telling you to cut that out.
“I don't understand. You have to use your words, remember?”
You take a moment to steel your resolve and wipe a fallen tear from your cheek “you’re stuck, you’re stuck in the past and that's why you dress like that! Old people used to only have black and white to wear too, that's why they were ugly and sad, so they created other colors. I just don't want you to be ugly and sad no more Draken!”
Draken didn't say anything right away but he fully faced you now and his eyebrows were so far down, crinkled so far together you were afraid they would stick like that forever.
“I don't even…what on earth are you talking about…?...and what's wrong with my clothes?!”
“It’s ok Draken, I still love you all the same”
“Where did you get the idea that people dressed in black in white?”
“Well they didn’t just dress in black and white, they were black and white” you say matter of factly “everything back then was. That's why when you watch old movies you can only see black and white, because they didn't invent color back then” you frown and kneel down beside where draken still sits “you feeling alright Draken?”
“Am i the one fe- nevermind” Draken signs, catching his head in hand “yeah, im fine. nevermind sweatheat”
“Mitsy baby?” you swing your legs forward from the table where you sit and tap mitsuya with your foot lightly and he looks at you, waiting for you to continue before he turns back to the piece of fabric in hand but splits his attention in half for you and his work. “Why is your hair sliver?”
“I dye it” he tilts his head.
“But Draken and Takamichi dye their hair too and theirs is blonde”
“Because we dye it different colors” Mitsuya doesn't miss a beat when he answers, giving a small smile at your innocent question “just like Mikey dyes his hair too, y’know?”
“Mikeys hair is natural but takamichis’ and Drakens' hair are both blonde, not silver” Mitsuya puts down his fabric and gives you his full attention just to make sure you’re not messing with him. You’re not. You're a hundred percent serious.
“Love, Mikey's hair is not natural. He dyes it blonde and I dye my hair silver. Hakkai dyes his hair a different color too. Do you understand now?”
“...so Mikey's hair isn't natural?”
“...You know I love you, right?”
You let out an overly dramatic sign and wait for baji to notice only for him to continue ignoring you and focus solely on looking behind a bush for the street cat.
“Whaaattt?” he mocked your whiny tone
“You never pay attention to me”
“No you’re not. My house is the other way”
“We’re going the long way, now shh. Ya gonna scare away sir. Comet” Baji crouched by another bush, spreading the leaves apart and paying you no mind until you huffed and walked off, leaving Baji to catch up to you.
“If you're going to pretend I’m not with you then I’m not going to be”
“Why ya gotta act so dramatic for? I’m paying attention” he gets up and follows after you, slugging one of his arms over your shoulder and pulling you close. “Come on, what's wrong with my pretty girl?” you try and fight back a smile at the use of his nickname for you.
“Just wanted to ask you a question is all”
“What's the question then?” you tilt your head to the side in thought.
“Well, you know how the sky turns blue because of the ocean?”
“How come we don't reflect the ocean's color too?”
“Think about it for a moment”
“That’s…actually a good question”
“How many continents are there in Japan?"
“I just wanted to know how many continents there are in japan”
“Im planning a trip and tryna figure out where I want to go. I don’t want to go too far–”
“Nono I mean why…who told you there are continents in japan? There are none”
“No…no there's not, japan is in a continent, asia but there are no continents in japan”
“I think you’re mistaken Shin”
“You know what? How about we plan the trip together, it will be fun”
“What does it say to do now?” Souya asked you from over his shoulder. His voice kind with you even with his patient's low due to too many failed attempts on a particularly hard recipe.
“It says add a third cup of vegetable oil” you grab the heart shaped measuring cup and stare into it for a moment, head cocking to the side in a confused bliss. “Honey?” you call for him.
“How many third cups are in a cup?” you stare blankly at him.
“Theres-...what did you say?”
“How many third cups are in a cup?”
“Say that one more time but slower for me”
“How many third cups are in a cup?...what's wrong?” Souya's twisted face turned further as he looked back at you but despite his face looking angry you knew he wasn’t.
“Maybe I should do the measuring. Wanna get the ingredients and hand them to me instead?”
“Hey Nahoya, you ever think about what color a mirror is?”
“Mirrors dont have colors jackass”
“Hey! Don't call me that”
“told ya to stop hanging around those friends of yours”
“You’re one to talk mister ‘schools for lame asses”
“Yeah well in your case you needa pick up extra classes or something” you gasp and throw a pillow from Smiley's bed, hitting him square in between the eyes.
He doesn't hesitate to chuck the pillow back at you, a pillow fight breaking out between the two of you in his room.
“I’m walking as slow as i can, why are you walking so slow?”
“Well slow down some more” you grip your duffle bag closer to your chest and stop walking as Chifuyu looks back at you and offers his hand out, offering to carry it if it’s too heavy. “I got it” you hold the bag tighter.
“You’re acting so weird today, what’s up with you?”
“Well…you know how yesterday i asked you if you thought penguins got cold?”
“Well I found out penguins go off on their own in the wild when they get tired of their friends” Chifuyu stopped walking, as did you.
“I thought that maybe they’d want a vacation, y’know?”
“So I went to the aquarium and I felt so bad”
“No where” you lie. Chifuyu takes a minute looking at you before his eyes close and he rubs the bridge of his nose.
‘’What's in your bag? What did you do?”
“I have no idea what you mean”
“We’re returning the penguin”
