Case 17: Turnabout Terror

[The morning immediately after her horrifying experience with the Coral Cannibal, Kay wakes up in her own bed with a start.  Her heart racing, she flails about in a panic, knocking the phone off the receiver.  The whole of Mayfield is treated to the very loud and utterly terrified scream of a young 17 year old thief.]

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

[There is the sound of heavy, panicked breathing along with the rustling of bedsheets as Kay tries to make sense of her surroundings while trying to remember just what happened the previous night.  She's talking to herself, barely aware that she's narrating her own thoughts out loud.]

"W-what was that...?  Sharp pain... and... then.  Just darkness.  And blood... blood everywhere..."

[Huddles underneath her sheets, pulling them tightly around her so that nothing but her face is showing.  She's like a small child convinced of the magic power of her blanket, as if it will somehow protect her against the monsters that lurk in the shadows just out of sight.  And she just stays like that, rocking back and forth and quietly murmuring to herself, still totally unaware that the phone is off the hook.]

[ He nods and stands up, taking Kay's hand and lacing their fingers together. ]

Yeah. I can let you take my bed if you want.

[Takes his hand, gripping it tightly and blushing a little.]

"D-do you think I could sleep next to you? ...Would your family mind?"

[ Yamamoto's ears light up like a Christmas tree. His real dad would probably have a cow, but he's back at home... ]

They probably won't mind. So yeah, you can...

[Lets out a little sigh of relief.]

"Okay."

[Turns pretty pink herself.]

"It's... just because I'm still scared. I didn't mean for it to sound weird or anything..."

[identity profile] ignorant.livejournal.com 2010-05-26 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
No, no! It didn't sound weird at all.

[ He laughs quietly, still blushing. He had never...been in the same bed with a girl before. Always time for trying uh. New things, right? ]

Really.

Okay. I don't want to make you uncomfortable or anything.

[identity profile] ignorant.livejournal.com 2010-05-26 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
You could never make me uncomfortable.

[Grins and loops her arm through his, resting her head on his shoulder.]

"Good."

[ He laughs quietly and leaders her out of the house, still holding onto his bat, and over to his. ]

Maybe I should clean my room...
