pairing: isara mao x g/n!reader
note: f/n = friendâs name !
THE STUDENT COUNCIL WORK had been more and more stressful these days after the former 3rd years had graduated from yumenosaki private academy. in repositioning for the role of student council president, mao luckily became the perfect pick, and retook over eichiâs position. with tori and his butler, yuzuru, still with him at the council room, the piles and loads of work multiplied over his desk were easily handled and documented.
there were times when ritsu would often come visit the student council room, bug him to let the male sleep on his lap while he worked, and there were also times where his unit would come barging in out of nowhere. sometimes they were a wreck in the student council room, however mao knew so far that they meant a lot to him. not to mentionâŚ
not long after he announced being in a relationship with someone, his unit members were really surprised. subaru wanted to meet who he was going out with immediately after the confession, and hokuto had to calm him down. yes, he had faith in his unit about keeping secrets (including when itâs about relationships, which is not allowed to be known by the fans) but thereâs this someone that bothered him by letting him know who he was infatuated with. the answer is obvious to be ritsu. even if mao trusts his childhood friend with all his heart, he knew ritsu would grow quite upset to hear he had a romantic partner. most obvious reasons would be because of the knight memberâs clingy affection towards the council president, however his older brother thinks otherwise for more reasons.
as now the current student council president, some rules were changed in order to maintain the academyâs strict policy for the idol students in which can be involved with other courses connected to yumenosaki. mao often had hard times with his job, not to mention there were times when his unit members would forget about the rules he newly establishes, and then call them over to his office for a serious talk. mao has always been serious when it comes to student council matters, as both his status as the student council president and an idol (also now captain of the basketball club) had always been a close reputation in his heart. howeverâŚ
y/n on the other hand had too become a priority to isara himself. his endearing lover who was always patting his shoulder when stressed and giving him small pecks on the forehead (not in front of the other student council members of course, tori would fume in annoyance), this was their ways to calm mao downâother than ritsu sleeping on his lap during working hours, not like mao ever minded he was used to it anyways.
y/n is not a producer in the idol course unlike the number one producer; anzu. instead, theyâre only from the normal course in yumenosaki that mao had met when the normal course had some requests for the student council. y/n was their errand student if ever needed something far from the other courses. this was an obvious one, as mao notices it was always y/n who would come over the office when provided with new requests from the other yumenosaki courses. itâs hard work being an errand student thatâs for sure. though, that didnât take long when mao realised he kinda wanted to see them all the time now.
it became a weird attachment towards him, yet in some circumstances that came from a clear realization, yuzuru would soon notice his âoddâ behaviour whenever y/n would enter the student council office, a smile always leaking over their face. maoâs facial expression would frequently go from surprise, stammering of words, and an awkward neck brush as y/n hands over some documents from the normal course. these are obvious signs for yuzuruâs âtheoryâ of whatâs going on between the errand student and the idol courseâs current student council president.
didnât take long when a festival was held, and mao confessed to y/n after one of his lives. he was a little hesitant at first, hands sweating and shaking as he waited for an answer to arriveâand when such sweet words of reciprocation stumbled on oneâs mouth, mao knew lady luck finally gave him his chance. and thus, the relationship began. y/n was more than lucky to have maoâs approval in almost everything they asked for, sometimes even if they werenât asking for it. for example, free live tickets to his concert, out of nowhere dates (these were mostly fun, so y/n didnât mind much), and secret kisses in the office.
although the other members of trickstar werenât much familiar of maoâs significant other, they knew for sure of how in love their unit member can be when infatuated with another.
back to the main hand of the story.
it was a thursday afternoon in yumenosaki, idols were being once again piled with practices, live scheduling for the upcoming projects approved by the student councilânot to mention, an ongoing festival happening over inside the idol course building. the busy units that were bombarded inside of their changing rooms to get ready for their concert while visitors from other schools were scrolling around different booths for todayâs occasion. maoâs unit was going to be performing later onstage thanks to the festival plan anzu had prepared for the idols entertainment for tonight (much different than last year, the moment where keito embarrassed himself when he pretended to shoot a fan with an imaginary bowâso much to wataruâs amusement at that point), yet the only thing mao could think of at that very moment in his head of clouds was y/nâs appearance roaming freely inside the school.
he had plans for his secret date for tonight with his lover, right after his concert, he would swipe them away with him, and go on for the most fun date of his life (âweâll distract the fans, sally! donât you worry!â was what subaru said). still, it would be such a great help. when a knock interrupted his thoughts, isara yelled out a âcome in!â signal before the door to the office opened. he was hoping it was either tori, souma, or toriâs butler, yuzuru, however he never expected it would be y/n themself. a wide smile stretches onto his cheeks. âoh y/n, hey! sorry, iâm a little piled up at the moment because of the festival happening right now, it would be best if youâd scroll along down at the booths, itâs going to be a little boring in hereâŚâ was the first thing that came out of his mouth. he wanted to slap himself at that moment.
y/n giggles, âitâs alright, just talking to you would be enough. i have so much to tell you!â
talk about hearts jumpingâŚ
their conversation lasted for 20 minutes. mao didnât expect for this topic to go on longer than this workload he has on his hands, considering he wasnât even much the slightest distracted by his significant otherâs beautiful presence shows how much he can multitask with his work. with their hand on his, maybe this wouldnât be so badâŚhow much he wants to kiss them at the momentâŚhowever that would be far too rash for his acts as a boyfriend. just like this would be ok for himâŚthat is, until another knock could be heard at the door. y/n stands up, letting go of maoâs palm, which saddens him a bit, âiâll open it for you.â
âthanks.â his eyes were quickly focused back on the document on his hands.
the sound of the door slamming opened was erupted inside the student council office, causing mao to shriek in surprise from the loud noise. all that he saw next was yuzuru pulling an unfamiliar figure away from y/n, who was pulling them close to her chest. what in the world was going on�
âf-f/n?! what are you doing here?!â
ây/n-sama, do you somehow know this individual?â
back to 0 days without nonsense in yumenosaki academyâŚwhat a painâŚ
mao jumps up from his chair and ran to the situation, pulling y/n away as well as yuzuru pulling the girl who was clinging to his lover away. she lookedâŚlike a student from the normal course, probably because of the uniformâŚand her expression when she looks at y/nâŚalso another plus of evidence. the girl tries her best to pull away from yuzuruâs grip, sounding annoyed, âhey, can you let go of me, please?! itâs very rude to hold a girl you donât know like that!â
âitâs also very rude to just burst inside the student council office without permission, including if youâre from another course, miss.â yuzuru barks back to her. y/n calmly walks away from maoâs grip, and pulls the girl away from yuzuru. now, he was confused. âf/n, what in the world were you thinking?? didnât i said to wait for me?â
âbut y/n-chan you were taking forever! i wanted to eat but you were nowhere to be found, so i scrolled down everywhere to look for you!â
ây/n, do you know her?â mao couldnât help but question. nervously laughing, scratching the nape of their neck as f/n wraps her arms around them with a huge smile, y/n spoke, âahahaâŚsorry about this mao, but uhhâŚthis is f/n, a childhood friend of mine, sheâs from the normal course that i brought along here for the idol festival. sheâs a little clingy like ritsu but sheâs pretty nice. f/n, this is the guy iâve been telling you aboutâŚâ
the mentioned female who clings around his beloved stops to look at him and smiles cheerfully, not even bothering to step back a bit from y/n and give around at least some space for them to breathe. âyouâre the guy y/n-chanâs been talking about? waaahh! i never knew it was you! member of trickstar, right!? the one who defeated fine at last yearâs idol festival! itâs an honor to know that y/n-chan is dating one of yumenosakiâs greatest idols!â she beams at mao along with a giggle. ây/n-chan youâre so lucky! how charming can you get if an idol is also infatuated with you??â
y/n awkwardly laughs as f/n only continued to hug them close. yuzuru seems to also stay bewildered as mao is, âcourseâthe butler had no idea if he should continue pulling away from the student office or leave her be, simply because she seemed to be a very close friend of y/nâs. âwell none of it matters now, because in the end, itâll be me y/n-chanâs going to marry, right~?!â
mao felt like a shard had been stabbed in his chest. yuzuru too was surprised by this.
y/n, who was now trying to push f/n away from them, kept looking back if their boyfriend was bothered a little by their childhood friendâs comment out of thin air, âa-alrightâŚ! enough of that, f/nâc-câmon nowâŚ! letâs get going, there are idols who are going to be performing soon!â
âoh yeah i forgotâŚ! quick! letâs order some food first before we go! nice to meet you again, mao-san! me and y/n-chan are going to go now!â mao wasnât even able to say a proper goodbye before f/n dragged y/n out of the student council office, leaving both yuzuru and the current council president standing there, astounded.
it was evening by the time the festival finished. and every paperwork scattered across maoâs desk was finished as well. the evident shining stars that twinkled beneath the clouded heavens looked down upon the realm of each individual walking home from the exit of yumenosaki. with a loud sigh escaping his lips and a grunt from the long stretch he did, mao patted a certain ravenetteâs hair who was sleeping over his lap as he worked.
âoi ritsu, get up, let me breathe real quick..â
âmmn..â the mentioned male did as he was asked, and sat up from his childhood friend, yawning as he did so. if mao remembers well, the last time he saw y/n was around 12pm, right before the festival was startingâand of course, they were withâŚthat girl named f/n (claiming to be a childhood friend of theirs, yet mao doesnât remember much of his lover talking about her before).
âi wonder where y/n isâŚâ
âmaa-kun, do you think theyâre cheating on you?â
âwhy wouldâŚ?! ritsu, donât say such things, i got a little angry with that, yâknow??â
âsorry, sorryâŚplease donât get mad at me, maa-kunâŚâ mao rubbed his arms a bit to calm himself down from such thought. no, y/n was never the type of person to cheat. as they had mentioned earlier; f/n was somewhat like ritsuâŚvery clingy. there was no way ritsu would see that as something elseâŚway beyond their relationship. he felt nervous andâŚkind of afraid.
just before mao could say anything else, a knock could be heard at the door, and yuzuru was swift to open it while holding a pot of tea on his other hand. âspeak of the devil! hehe..!â tori giggled at the back, before munching up a biscuit in his mouth. y/n walks in, completely clueless of what tori meant by that, âspeak of the devil? were you guys talking about me just now?â
âahâŚplease donât mind them..â
âwelcome back, y/n-sama. please do have a seat while i pour you some tea.â
âoh! thank you so much, yuzuru!â as y/n took a seat across from maoâs seat, mao smiles brightly as he greeted them, âhow was the festival? did you and your errâŚfriends enjoyed it?â he asks, a bit timid. ritsu notices this small odd behavior of his childhood friend and chuckles; âmaa-kun~ you sound discreet right now, yâknow?â he pointed out, causing a small startle from the male beside. ritsu laughs along with y/n who giggles. the tea was served right away not for too long, and ritsu left after tsukasa came looking for him right after the festival activities involving the knight idols. yuzuru and tori both excused themselves for a while to talk regarding of family matters mentioning the himemiya family (it wasnât a real excuse, all tori wanted was for mao and y/n to have alone timeââreasonâs why he dragged yuzuru into his so-called business).
now it was only the two of them in the student council office. mao started to wonder what was taking souma so long. âahaâŚsorry about this, maybe you should head home first. this work might take a while.â
âi donât mind waiting.â
ây-you sure? how about your friend?â
y/n tilted their head in confusion, âwhat about f/n?â
âwell, wonât she be waiting for you? iâm sure she might crash into the student council office againâŚyou should really tell her that this office is not just an in and out room, itâs for business staff members onlyâŚand people can only come inside with the consent from the members.â mao spoke, not bothering to look eye to eye level with y/n, who just sat there and listened. y/n giggles, âi know, you donât have to explain that to me. itâs a habit of f/n-chanâs, iâm really sorry if she had bothered your working hours during that time. i had explained to her about the situation as well, and sheâs also sorry about it. i hope you can forgive her for herâŚ.recklessness.â
mao sighs, his forefinger and thumb pushing the hem of his nose as he leaned himself down onto his chair. âfor someone her age, sheâs at least got to know that rule, right? i donât get it. why is she so clingy?â y/n senses perked up and tingled after that sentenceâŚ.wait a minuteâŚ
âarenât you bothered by how close she is? i pay real attention, and it looks like she wasnât giving you temporary space at all.â
âi mean, honestly, ritsu can be clingy like her, but goodness sheâs another kind. probably because sheâs a girl? gahâŚno, her gender has nothing to do with thisâŚor maybe sheâs way too comfortable around you nowâŚhmmâŚâ
y/nâs boyfriend looked up to them after being called (for the second time), and his eyes darted away quickly. âyeah?â
silence lingered like an aroma through the air, with the only noise coming from the outside view of cricketâs chirp and the wind churning an endless tune. y/n looked at mao intensely, while the male on the other hand looked straight back into their eyes, feeling lost in them. for a few seconds, he managed to realise what his lover has questioned, and his cheek burns. âh-hah? jealous? about what?â
âabout f/n-chan,â y/n replies, this time a cheshire cat smile stretched across their cheeks. nervousness can be sensed in maoâs laughter, an awkward grin dug through as well. âw-whaâŚ? why would i be jealous? sheâs your friend, and iâm your boyfriend. the difference is huge.â
âyeah, i know. but were you jealous of earlier?â
âwhat type of questions are these? if youâre here to distract me from work then i suggest you just go straight home and rest for me,â mao was totally dodging the question, looking away from y/n who was grinning weirdly at him. this was stupidâŚwhy would he be jealous of such a small matter like this? y/nâs laughter could be heard, and mao tried all his best to hide the visible redness of his cheeks. âmaa-kun~â
âa-are you really calling me by the name ritsu gave me?â y/n teasingly stuck their tongue out, âyou were jealous werenât you?â
another laugh. âitâs ok to be jealous, mao! honest! just confess that you were jealous earlier thenâmph!â
y/nâs sentence was cut short, arms clinging to their shoulders as they were pulled forward by a force, lips meeting his, and eyes wide in surprise. a second has passed, and mao gently pulls away from the kiss, and sits back down on his desk, continuing his work.
âwhy would i be even jealous? i get to do that to you, and she canât because youâre taken by me already, so she has no chance,â mao says, calmly, before resuming his paperwork. what a new side to the student council presidentâŚ
a/n: ahaâŚhappy valentineâs dayâŚ?
