Late Night Arrival
[Author]
I feel like I've been focusing the previous chapters on Katzuki, and not on the main character [Itzuki]
[Author]
So let's change that shall we?
Neon Tec City, Upper Town A avenue
Itzuki arrived home that night, abit later than usual
Before heading home tho, he had already changed from his hip hop attire, now wearing his classical ballet uniform
But that wouldn't stop his mother's questions from rolling in
Using his card, he scanned it by the wall opening the front door
Upon walking inside, he noticed that the lights were off
However, due to the neon lights seeping in through the windows, it wasn't as dark, but for Itzuki, it was strange
Itzuki
*Why are the lights off-*
Itzuki
*Usual they'd be o-*
Itzuki began frantically looking around
Itzuki
What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in your room resting?
Ms. Izumi
Thou, it has come to my attention that you've been coming home late...
Ms. Izumi
Why is that Itzuki...?
Itzuki had to come up with a lie that could convince his mother, otherwise his mother might do an investigation
Itzuki
I've been staying behind at school to practice more...
Itzuki
I want to be as good of a ballet dancer as you are!
Her eyes then narrowed down to his clothes, from his neck to his feet
Ms. Izumi
You do know that you'll be punished if I find out you've been lying to me...
Ms. Izumi
Good, bit from now on Sir James will keep watch of you
Ms. Izumi
I need someone to watch over you, to make sure you're on the right path when I or your father aren't around...
Ms. Izumi
To help you to remain focus and not anywhere else, getting...distracted
Hearing that last bit, Itzuki could not help but get the feeling that his mother might have suspected something...
Itzuki
(sigh) *It's not like I have much of a choice...*
Ms. Izumi
Now run along...
Itzuki
*She never used to be this way...*
As he made his way to the elevator, about to open it. His mother then noticed him holding a bag of his shoulder
Itzuki
(Stops) Yes mother...?
Ms. Izumi
What's in your bag?
Itzuki's heart beat slowly increased, he gulped before turning to look at her,
Itzuki
Oh, It's just my school uniform mother
Itzuki entered the elevator, which brought him straight to the 5th floor
Ms. Izumi
*I know you're hiding something Itzuki*
Ms. Izumi
*And when I find out what it is, you and I are going to have a little chat*
Meanwhile, at the 5th floor
Itzuki opened his door, entering his lavishly large bedroom
But was startled to find his sister on his bed
Itzuki
I told you a thousand times not to enter my room without my permission!
Akio Izumi
Hey, don't forget who's helping you keeping your little secret
Itzuki
And don't forget who's keeping yours
She rolled her eyes and he glared at her
Itzuki
So, why are you here?
Akio Izumi
I just wanted to check on you
Akio Izumi
What took you so long?
Katzuki
Please Little Phantom, do tell?~
[Katzuki whispers in his ear, causing Itzuki's heart to beat faster and faster]
Itzuki
There were some...minor delays on my way back-
Saying that Itzuki placed his bag by his bedside, before heading straight towards the bathroom
But before could he enter, his sister asked,
Akio Izumi
Oh really, like what?
Itzuki
*Although I hate lying to her- some things are better left unspoken...*
Itzuki
Um- The dance off took longer than expected, and getting through the crowd was no piece of cake this time-
Itzuki
Plus I had to go back to the school grounds again
Akio Izumi
But what about the cameras?
Itzuki
A few weeks ago I asked CJ to hack into the school's security system. (Smiles)
Itzuki
*Luckily I managed to persuade him*
Akio Izumi
Ahhh~ I see what you're doing...
Akio Izumi
So if CJ had been hacking the security system all this time, that means that-
Itzuki
All tapes that include me entering the school grounds, would have been erased
Itzuki
Yeah yeah whatever, now if you don't mind I'd like to take a shower
Akio Izumi
(Rolls eyes) Fine, fine I get the memo
Itzuki
(Sigh) *Atleast I can rest now...*
After changing, he flopped on the bed
Clapping his hands once, the lights dimmed
The sound of rumbling thunder was then followed by the piter pater of rain
Itzuki
(Yawn) At least it'll be easier to sleep...
Itzuki
(Groaning) I need the rest anyway, I have school tomorrow...
His eyelids slowly grew heavy, as he drifted into a dark abyss of nothing, at last falling asleep
But let's just say, his dream had other plans in mind
