Comfort - Katsuki x Reader [Sequel to Barrier]

Ch. 40 - Fear and Anger

Did someone say tea? Get it while it's hot!

The next day when you woke up, you were happy to be warm but the most important thing you wanted at the moment was on your mind.

"Food."

So you did what anyone would do, involving you squirming around until the constrictive hold on you loosened before shimmying out of the blanket and arms before sitting up and rolling onto your feet and off your back before heading for your kitchen.

You snatched up a small snack before heading to your bedroom and getting ready for the day. You put on a casual outfit, (bottoms of your choice), shirt and a zip up jacket.

When you left your room you weren't surprised to see the ashen blonde now wide awake, although he didnt look very entertained.

"Let's go to the cafe, we can get some food there too." You spoke happily.

"Cant you cook?"

"Of course I can! I just have a bet to win." You smirked.

He rolled his eyes and stood up, putting his hands in his pockets. You lead the way out the door and began going down the street.

"Theres so much I need to do. I'm putting myself at risk now that I've stopped trying to kill Katsuki, but I dont know the consequences of not killing him, I only know what I can gain. If I find the memory snatcher with Izuku then I can force him to give back my memories, but I dont know who they are or where they are. All I know is that they know what I'm doing some how."

You let out a small sigh before noticing you were in front of the cafe and entering.

"Oh hey, what are you doing here?" Akasuki asked as soon as you stepped in.

"I work here, but that doesn't mean I have to stop being a customer." You smiled.

She smiled back a bit playfully, "Right, well go have a seat and I'll be with you shortly!"

You nodded and walked over to an empty booth nearby with Katsuki following behind.

"Alright! Now I can prove for a fact that the drinks I make here are better." You grinned.

"In your fucking dreams, dumbass." He smirked.

After a bit of information to Akasuki, she allowed you back into the kitchen to make the drinks with the agreement that someone else would make the food.

You couldn't help the wide smile on your face as you placed the warm drink in front of the brooding blonde.

You sat down opposite of him and smiled as you sipped on you own cup. He raised a brow at you before picking it up and taking a drink.

The glass make a low tap as you set it down, his soon doing the same.

"Sooo~" you looked at him slyly, "Its great right?"

He looked into your eyes before looking away with a bit of a pout.

"Its gross."

You immediately laughed, "Anyone could tell you lied! There's no need to be embarrassed, I know its good."

He rolled his eyes and sank down into the seat more as you talked more.

"All of it was a complete accident too! Who would've thought that me messing something up would end so perfectly! I really must be a gift from the gods! So many people like it too so Akasuki said that it might be added to the-"

You were cut off as Katsuki suddenly sat upright and leaned around the curve of the booth with his arm out to snake across your shoulders.

You could feel his hot breath by your ear as he spoke, "You're talking to damn much."

Quickly, your face flushed and your hand shot up, it originally was aimed for your face but missed and hit the edge of the table hard causing your drink to spill.

Luckily he managed to back away just in time to only let the seat get scorched.

"S-Sorry! I'll be back I just gotta get a rag!" You apologized embarrassed and stood up.

You were surprised when you looked at him to see a small smiled.

"Go ahead, I'll wait."

You smiled back, probably more like an idiot than him and ran off to the employees only area. You snatched the first rag you saw and ran back out.

"I think I might love him."

You smiled wider at your own thoughts as you reappeared in the dining area, white cloth clutched in your hand as you rounded the counter and stood a few feet from the table.

You feet stopped moving as well as the rest of your body freezing in place as your eyes locked on the scene before you.

Your quickly beating heart suddenly felt cold with fear and anger as your hands tightened to turn pale on the rag.

"You bitch." You spoke in a voice just above a whisper.

Burne pulled away and turned excruciatingly slow to face you with a smirk on her slightly more plumped lips.

"Oh hey~" She replied.

The pressure was to much. You ran away, dropping the rag as you bolted and bruising your forearm as you slammed into the metal door which promptly flung open at your force and rushed down the street back home.

But it was still in your head. Stained there for what felt like would be the rest of time. His hands on her hips and enjoying the kiss.
