22Tease10 - You-sensei's heart is going doki-doki-doki?! (And it's all because of Riko-sensei!)
Author Notes
I wanna write more of this!
May you enjoy~ XD
The awkward moment begins again when dinner and teasing are over and another change of clothes is called for.
You stands up awkwardly, blinks a myriad of times before finding her voice, "I-"
"I can change on my own this time, You-chan." Riko moves her legs out from under the blankets and You quickly averts her eyes from staring.
"T-That's good. I'll. Be...outside!" You dashes out the room, closing it behind her, not hearing the art teacher's giggle.
You sighs as she rests her back and head against the door of Riko's room, putting a hand over her racing heart.
Why do I get so weird in front of Riko-chan..? Sheesh…
You focuses on nothing for a time as she questions her flustered self she could not understand at this point; and after really long minutes, she started looking around restlessly, noting the faded pink walls and very clustered space all around.
Riko-sensei- Er…Riko-chan sure has a lot of art stuff.
You turns her head around a little, wondering how things are going on the other side of this wooden door.
Riko-chan is…changing-
"I'm done." Riko's soft voice sounds and You jumps a step back.
"Ah! Um, okay! I…I'll come in?" You's hand hovers at the knob and she turns a shade redder when she hears the art teacher's lyrical giggle coming from inside.
Ahhh…Watanabe You! Why do you do this to yourself?
"Yes." Riko answers and You takes a few deep breaths to compose herself before opening the door.
Changed.
You thinks as she looks at Riko dressed in a long pastel pink shirt. The ash-brunette couldn't make out of Riko was wearing anything below but at least…the art teacher's behind was covered by the length of that shirt. You didn't have to question it to know her cheeks were warm and flushed again.
"Well." You begins with a clap and craning her neck away awkwardly.
Riko sits on the side of her bed. "Well?"
Well. You told me to stay the night. With you. In your house. Just you and me! So!
"I'll be outside if you need me." You rubs the back of her neck awkwardly as she takes a few steps backwards to exit the room once again.
Riko simply watches the gym teacher go; her lips moving like she wanted to say something but she was holding back. You closes the door behind her before opening it again in the next second. Riko arches an eyebrow at the ash-brunette who was blushing cutely.
"Er…Goo- Goo- Good night. Riko…chan." You stutters out.
Was it supposed to be so difficult to say good night to someone?!
Riko chuckles with a hand over her mouth. "Good night, You-chan~"
You stares helplessly at the art teacher who was obviously entertained by her silly self. You grunts and closes the door.
Riko-chan is having way too much fun! I'm doing my best to take care of her here and she just keeps…keeps…making me feel weird all over.
You sighs again; the day she understands these feelings of hers, the happier she will be. The ash-brunette pauses as she accessed her sleeping space.
"Seriously?"
You thought she could sleep on the sofa but it was covered in canvases and brushes of all sizes and other paint tools, plus old newspaper all over to perhaps protect the sofa or the art material; You couldn't quite tell.
You ruffles her hair and shakes her head.
Maybe a spare room…
You carries her feet over to the only spare room available since Riko's apartment was a 3-room flat (2 rooms and a living room). You never felt so much disbelief and despair before. The room was filled with more art stuff!
"I know you're an art teacher but…but do you really need that many art materials!" You cries out to herself; giving the spare room a quick scan, hoping that there might be a mini couch Riko might use to rest after long hours of being arty.
Anything…anything…just a space that fits for an adult to stretch out her legs…and…nope.
You trudges back out and hesitantly looks at Riko's room door.
Do I go back in..?
You scratches her cheek. "Maybe ask her if she has a spare bed…"
You knocks on the door and it didn't take long for Riko to respond so she opens the door once again. "R-Riko-chan…Do you have a…spare bed?"
"I don't." Riko replies as she turned to press the space on her bed.
She hasn't gone to bed huh…
"I see. Then I-"
"Just sleep with me on the same bed…" Riko makes eye contact with You; soft, beckoning hazels staring into widening in bewilderment azure eyes.
"Wha-"
"I don't mind." Riko adds gently.
Well, I do!
"No, I…"
Riko makes a sad face. "Or I could find some spare towels…and sleep on the floor-"
"Sleep on the floor? No, no. You can't. You're sick. You-"
You stops mid exclamation when she sees the art teacher's small smile; smile but indicating the big news that she has won. Riko pats the space to her right.
"Ugh, fine, fine. We'll share the bed." You pouts as she makes her way to the opposite side of the bed, plopping herself down quickly before her brain and heart decided otherwise.
Riko giggles soft as she pulls the blanket over herself.
"Only because you're stubborn and unreasonable." You grumbles as she lies down.
The art teacher chuckles, and You was doing her best to not look over to Riko who was hardly ten centimetres away, considering Riko sleeps on a single bed. "Regretting being my caretaker?"
You breathes out heavily as she shifts her head further away from Riko. "…No…I'd still choose to be your caretaker."
I don't want it to be anyone else…
"Oh? You'll choose me, huh~?" The lilt in Riko's voice oozing with glee as she giggled to herself.
Riko-chan!
You's cheeks explodes in a deeper blush than it already was and coughed rather embarrassingly beside Riko. "Just- Just sleep already, Riko-chan!"
Riko laughs unabashedly on her side of the bed for a time before she returned to a calmer breathing pace. "Good night~ You-chan."
"Good night…" You replies as she turns to lie on her side fully, so her back was facing Riko; she really couldn't do the opposite. The reason for her being unable to sleep would change if she did so.
Riko-chan…
