Supervillain Idol System: My Sidekick Is A Yandere

Don went to the living room and turned his attention to the large flat screen mounted to the wall. It was currently showing a telenovela and he couldn't help but sigh at this. 'No matter the world, there's just something about moms and these types of shows.'

Don didn't bother looking for the remote as he didn't really have anything he wanted to watch. Instead he simply took a seat on the sofa directly opposite of the TV.

After 5 minutes, Samantha walked into the living room with a large silver tray. On it was a glass jug filled with orange juice, two glass cups and a plate full of pancakes coated in maple syrup.

Samantha proceeded to place the food down on the coffee table in front of the sofa Don was seated on. As she did this, he couldn't help but glance at her as her behind was practically in his face.

'A bit bigger and she could block the whole TV…' Don thought, but luckily for him, Samantha wasn't the least bit aware of the eyes staring at her as she stood upright and put her hands on her hips while facing the TV.

She seemed glued to the current scene being shown on the TV. Seeing that she still was moving after a few seconds, Don asked, "uh, aren't you sitting down to eat?"

"Oh, right, sorry." Samantha was brought out of her short daze and immediately took a seat next to Don before explaining, "I barely get to follow the series these days and I was just surprised to see how crazy things have become."

Don chose to act interested and proceeded to ask her, "what's the show about?"

Immediately he did this, Samantha turned to look at him with an excited expression and placed her hands on his thigh, "oh! Where to even begin, you see, it's about this orphan girl named Rosa who got adopted by her father's killer, however she ends up falling in love with a farm boy who turns out to be her brother separated by birth, but she doesn't know that yet and-."

Don simply began to nod as story began to make less and less sense the longer she explained it. However Don did take note of how passionate she spoke about it and realized that this was likely one of her favorite things.

She continued to explain as they ate, telling Don about characters and their back stories, as well as how she felt about them.

The show came to an end on a cliff hanger just as the two finished eating and Samantha couldn't help but frown. "Huh, done already? How can they end it right before Arturo confesses his love to Rosa?"

Don showed a small smile and just shrugged, "oh, you know how these publishers can be, they have to leave viewers on their toes so they they can keep ratings up."

Samantha huffed in irritation, as if her entire day had been ruined, "well I'll be sure to take away points in my review of the show when I have time. That'll show them."

"Yea it will," Don answered, trying his best not to sound sarcastic as he stood up before another telenovela could begin. "Anyway, I'm going to take a shower."

"Oh," Samantha seemed disappointed to hear Don was leaving. Without even realizing it, she was spending quality time with him. Don decided to ease their relationship dynamic even more by making a joke about her clear disappointment. "Why do you sound like you don't want me to go shower?"

Samantha couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed being called out on it, but Don's relaxed tone told her he was joking and she smiled before replying, "no, no, it's not that at all. It's… it's just that I don't really have anyone to watch these shows with. Your aunt Amanda prefers mud wrestling while your sister likes those strange tocky-ticks."

Don smiled and nodded in understanding. "Well if you need a movie buddy you're free to ask and I'll be glad to join you, provided I'm free. By the way, would it be okay if we go shopping today? I just realized I don't have many essentials either."

Samantha showed Don a bright smile and immediately agreed. "Of course, I'll also get ready."

"Great, see you in a bit." Don didn't say anything more and went back up the stairs to prepare.

———

Roughly 45 minutes later, Don was seated in the living room again, this time alone.

He had come down about 15 minutes earlier and was waiting for Samantha to finish preparing. And with nothing better to do, he began channel surfing.

"This will do I guess." Just as Don settled on a channel, Samantha finally came down.

"I hope I wasn't too long Donnie, are you ready to go?" She asked, prompting Don to look back.

'Woah.' Don was caught off guard by how amazing Samantha looked, despite wearing a rather normal attire made up of long black pants and a brown turtleneck.

Not wanting to make her uncomfortable, he quickly nodded and stood up, "yea I'm ready to go."

Just then the door bell rang and unfamiliar female voice could called out, "Oh Samanthaaaaa! Are you home honey? Dave told me your son is back. Me and my baby boy are here to say hi. Hellooo?"

Samantha went from smiling to frowning within seconds of hearing that voice. "Ugh, it's Cassie. Come on Donnie, maybe she won't bother me if she sees we're heading out."

"Uh, okay?" Don didn't know much about this Cassie woman other than the fact that she was really self centered from how Amanda spoke about her.

He followed Samantha's lead as she opened the door, revealing a woman, and a young man. Don's gaze however immediately settled on the young man first as he showed a look of surprise.

"Huh, Donald?"
