Misunderstood (Byakuya x Makoto) [REWRITING]

Chapter 7

Hallo!!!  I'm gonna keep swearing to a minimum in this story since people might feel uncomfortable by it so yeah :). Also, sorry if Byakuyas personality changes a bit, I just thought it would be cute if he was suddenly nice to Makoto :).

Makoto POV

I lifted my eyes and all I could see was a ceiling. I think I was still in my dorm room. "I see you're awake." A voice said at the end of the bed. I lifted my head slightly to see who, and the first thing I saw was blonde hair. I immediately knew who it was and let my head rest on the soft pillow. "H-hey Byakuya". I said and I couldn't help but stutter. What would you do after you just recovered from your panic attack with the guy you have a crush on? Of course you'd have trouble greeting them!

"You okay? You did just have a panic attack *and* a mental breakdown after all." He asked. I just stared blankly at the ceiling, perfectly matching with my blank mind. "Yep." Was all I could manage to say, my brain not functioning properly. I could imagine that Byakuya was frowning right then, not believing my lie. "You're obviously not." He said with a stern voice that made me shiver a bit. It was silent in the room for a while. "What about the others?" I asked, trying to make small talk instead of laying here awkwardly. He stayed silent for a while, probably debating about what to say. "I told them about what happened and they got worried. They care for you, you know?" He said. At the last few words he tilted his head slightly towards the ceiling. Silence was the only thing left in the room, apart from a few loud sighs and me slightly shifting my position on the bed.

"I suggest that you go in the shower. It's good for your health." He said. His voice wasn't demanding, it was more soothing and careful, like he'd planned out what to say and how to say it for days. Believe it or not it was exactly the tone that I needed to calm down. "Yeah, I thought about doing that too, but..." I trailed off from the last word. I don't even want to describe what I remembered, and he seemed to catch on. "Want to go in my room and use my shower?" He said, calm and collective. I sat up from my lying down position, drowsiness dissipating in an instant, and looked at him hanging on the edge of the bed, his long legs still easily touching the ground though. "A-are you really okay with that? I mean... are you fine with me using it?" I asked. I know it sounds bad but I ended up imagining using the same shower he had previously used and I was a blushing mess. I could hear him chuckle and he nodded. "I'm fine with it. Are you though?" He looked at me with a smirk on his face. I tried to show him a sort of 'don't mock me' face expression but I probably just ended up looking pathetic and stupid.

Long story short, we went to his dorm, I went in his shower, and met up with the others in the dining hall.

As I opened the door to his bathroom I looked at him with deadly eyes. "If you look at me in there, i'll beat the shit outta you." I warned, and I only seemed to earn his usual, basic expression. "Of course! I'd never do that! I respect your privacy." He said as his expression changed from emotionless, to soft and more serious. (WHY IS HE SO HOT... AND RESPECTFULLLLL). I gave him one last glance, even though I trusted him, before I went inside, and closed the door.

Time skip brought to you by the Egg nickname (he got changed, put his other clothes in the laundry room, and met up with the others).

.We walked through the hall, hand in hand, fresh and clean. It felt nice and refreshing. We let go of each others hands and opened the door to the dining hall. Everyone stopped whatever conversation they were having before and looked at us, more specifically... me, and had concern painted all over their faces. That's when I remembered that Byakuya told them what happened and I became nervous. They knew that I had a panic attack, and not only that, that I fell asleep in Byakuyas arms...

Aoi ran over to me and put her hands on my shoulders, the force almost too much as I nearly fell on the ground. She looked at me dead in the eyes which honestly scared me. I think she was searching any sign of discomfort from before to make sure I was okay, most likely worried if I was hurt or injured. She glared at Byakuya, almost like a death stare. "You didn't do anything to him, did you?" She said. I felt embarrassed, she doesn't have to treat me like her son. "Nope, I didn't invade his personal space." Aoi looked at me as if to ask for confirmation, so I nodded, and she glared at me more intensely then before, switching from me and Byakuya every now and then. "Alright Hina that's enough." Sakura spoke as she walked over and tapped her shoulder lightly. Aoi took a moment before she released my shoulders and stood up, crossing her arms. "I'm just worried you know? I... I don't want anyone else to die." She said, struggling to say the last part. I looked at her with sympathy. "Yeah, I don't want that either but you dont have to treat me like a kid." I chuckled and scratched the back of my head. She looked at me with a slight smile. I feel like i'm growing closer to everyone. It feels nice...

*sniff sniff*

A quiet sniffling could be heard in the corner of the hall. We all looked over to look and saw Monokuma, fake crying with a bunch or crumpled up tissues surrounding him. He was wiping a pretend tear from his eye and blew his nose with it. "Ahh, so sweet... yet so naive." We all looked at him, disgusted by the way he was acting. He was too playful, it didnt fit with any of *our* emotions. "Monokuma, we're not in the mood to listen to you mocking us." Byakuya stated, returning to his stern voice. Monokuma looked at him with fake pity. "Puhuhu, too bad! Because... I've prepared another motive for you all!!!"

The thought of another motive made me feel sick to my stomach, washing away all the calmness that i'd built up, only to be replaced by anxiety.

Another motive...

Another reason to kill...

Another murder, ready to be discovered.

Hola mi amigo! Sorry that this one was a bit shorter then usual. I started getting *out* of the mood to write but I really wanted to finish this chapter as I said I would! It's not that I'm tired I just got distracted and wanted to do something else. Hopefully on the other chapter i'll end up writing more. And I haven't had the motivation to go through it again so sorry if it turned out bad. By the way... I haven't finished DR3 yet so please don't say anything that might give away spoilers- Thanks for reading! <3
