across the dorm room ➸ yurika [ddlc]

chapter 1

"Well?" Natsuki asked, taking Sayori's hand in her own.

"I just don't know if I am in love with her anymore," Sayori whispered finally. "I love her, but I'm not in love with her anymore."

"But cheating?" Natsuki prodded. "Listen, I really like you and whatever, but I don't want to be a part of your cheating anymore."

Sayori bit her lip and stared at her shoes. "Okay. I understand."

Natsuki leaned in a pressed a soft, yet quick, kiss on Sayori's cheek before shuffling out of the room, leaving Sayori alone with her thoughts.

She couldn't bring herself to break up with Yuri. She liked the way Yuri kissed her because it felt nice. She liked resting her head on Yuri's chest because it felt nice. But it felt less like being lovers every day. Rather, it felt like they were friends with benefits.

She liked being loved the way that Yuri loved her, but it didn't have to be Yuri who did it. She couldn't bring herself to hurt the girl who had given four years of her life into their relationship.

Sayori couldn't help but feel like shit. Who was she to just hurt her girlfriend like that?

She decided she'd stay.

Maybe, just maybe, she'd fall back in love with her.
