Attention seeker ? (AU)

You were back from your shopping spree with Nobara, it honestly was impressive how much clothes she buys yet always say she has nothing to wear. “Babe you should come with me to see the boys !” She says excitedly, you grin at her eagerness and shake your head slowly. “The boys” were Fushiguro Megumi and Itadori Yuji. To be honest, when you first met them ? You thought the complicated one would be Megumi because of his sarcasm and silence, However, it’s the golden retriever who happens to not appreciate you.

Yeah, when you told Nobara, she told you ‘Nooo Yuji’s stupid and he looks like a goldfish but I promise you, he doesn’t hate anyone, he’s nice, too much for his own good’. But you know better, and maybe this is what actually frustrates you.

The first time you met him was at that party organised in the campus, you were Nobara’s roommate, you didn’t know anyone yet. It was Nobara who found you in a corner, sipping some juice by yourself, she thought that you were too pretty to be alone at a party and should have fun with her, so you followed her to her friends table. ‘Guys! I present you my roommate aka my new bestie !’ She presented you, you remember that Megumi nodded politely, Yuji had greeted you with a smile.

Everything was fine until one week later, you had left your amphitheater with Kaito Shishido. Kaito had asked you for a pen during the lesson and both of you started discussing in class. What you didn’t know at the time was that Kaito was a bully. The type of guy that would annoy nerdy guys in their corner by making some jokes when he passed with his friends. The joke would always be loud and humiliating but since the people he mocked weren’t injured or didn’t seem bothered by his mocking, nobody took it seriously. So when Yuji saw you walking with him after many classes, he had asked you if you were okay, you had told him that yes, and he had warned you about Kaito. Telling you how much he was a jerk and you should stay away from him.

You had defended Kaito, because surprisingly, the little times he was with you in class, copying your notes, he was the sweetest. During lunch brakes he would bring you some little chocolate bars or something sweet, even Nobara was surprised. No wonder you defended Kaito, he never acted like a bastard infront of you. Over the months, when you caught Kaito mocking a guy that arrived the last by three minutes late during a race practice because of his physical condition, you remember how you told him to piss off and never come near you again.

However you felt too ashamed to apologise to Yuji, especially after the looks he used to give you when you were walking with Kaito, thinking you maybe tolerated his behaviour with everyone. So this is why to this day, you and Yuji ignore each other whenever you both are close. You usually try to avoid joining Nobara when she’s with the boys because you don’t want to be seen as the roommate who tries to get into the friend group. But over the months, you and Nobara developed a special bond, she told you things, confessed you secrets. You understood that, even if she deeply love the boys, it was refreshing for her to have a girl that actually is into the girly things she does. You really matter to her, so if you have to face Yuji’s face during few hours around a table, and passing the most awkward hours of your time..you’re gonna do it.

__________________________________________

“Man, where’s Nobara ? The drinks are cold” Yuji says dramatically laying his face on the table. “It’s fresh drinks, Yuji. It’s obviously cold.” Answers flatly Megumi. Yuji rolls his eyes “yeah whatever. That doesn’t make you a genius”. Megumi is about to talk again but he’s interrupted by Nobara’s greeting.

They both look up and see Noabra, across the road, holding your hand, as she waves widely in the air, when you guys cross the road, Yuji immediately frowns “what the hell..?” He mutters in his breath. Nobara walks to them “Tadaaa look who I brought !” She presents you as a gift. You look at them and smile politely looking down. By the facial expression of yuji, you already know his night is fucked. You sit next to Nobara, unfortunately facing Yuji.

“It’s been a moment we didn’t see you, how are you doing?” Asks Megumi which leaves you surprised that he actually initiates the conversation. You smile “yeah I’m fine, classes are getting a bit tough so it’s a challenge to leave the campus, how about you ?” You ignore Yuji’s breathy“thank god” which was aims to be heard. He definitely didn’t like you here, with them, in his friend’s circle. The conversation goes on, you and Yuji aren’t talking, neither of you feeling the need to. Everytime Nobara talks, ranting about a story time or Megumi commenting, your eyes and Yuji’s meet for two seconds before both of you dart your eyes away.

So awkward..

After a moment, you excuse yourself going to the bathrooms. This restaurant didn’t have separate bathrooms as if a side for women and a side for men. You’re re applying your lip gloss in the mirror when the door behind you opens on a man. Maybe in his thirties, he leaves all the sinks and washes his hands in the sink right next to yours. You ain’t really disturbed, used to mixed bathrooms, you trace your lip liner, following the curve of your bottom lip when you hear “this colour looks pretty on you”. You turn your head to your side to see the man still washing his hands and re applying soap. You swear he already soaped his hands few seconds ago..you only mange a soft smile “thank you..”

Apparently the smile seemed as an invitation to him, because instead of pulling away from his sink and going to dry his hands, he only steps closer and takes your lip liner from the sink “where did you buy it ? I wanna buy the same for my wife” he tells you, with a little smirk that looked far too smug and flirty for someone ‘married’. You barely have time to get the information and the question in your mind when you hear a familiar voice behind you “there’s plenty makeup stores few streets across, she’s not a map”. You turn to find Yuji, back leaning against the doorway, holding the door open with his foot behind him. His tone is pretty cold and firm, a huge contrast with the guy used to joke about everything.

The man by your side dries his hands and thanks yuji, saying he’ll give it a look. Yuji holds the door open for him and when the man leaves, he drops his foot back on the floor, taking a step toward you. “Flirting with older men now ? You got a type” he drawls now standing behind you, looking at you through the mirror facing you.

You weren’t the epitome of intelligence but you could read through the lines, that was definitely a jab about Kaito. You avoid his eyes through the mirror, you apply your lip gloss silently before turning and facing him “frustrated you’re not my type ?” You ask, your voice overly sweet, foreshadowing your bitterness. You see his jaw clench then unclench “you know, this isn’t the attention you want, believe me.” He tells you, tone firm yet quieter. You tilt your head, and without thinking about your words, they slip out of your mouth before you can hold em “maybe I want yours..”

You immediately regret your words, what the fuck was wrong with you ? You’re not an attention seeker, and certainly not seeking his. Silence stretches between you both and you could feel now the heavy tension settling on both of you. Suddenly the bathrooms seem to narrow around you both, maybe it is your imagination, or maybe it is due to him towering over you now, damn he was tall..

And out of every awkward reaction Yuji could get, he just tilts his head on the side, leaning the palms of his hands on the sink counter behind your back. Blocking you. The amused smirk taking place on his face makes you want to disappear in embarrassment due to your own words. “So tell me, were you with Kaito, to get my attention..?” You barely register his question, neither the implication, because your nostrils can’t help but breathe his cologne. It was so him, imposing, athletic, and something..fresh. Then reality comes back to you..did he say you were with Kaito ?

“Wha-? What do you mean I was with him..?” You blurt, Yuji raises an eyebrow “I mean you dating him.” He answers, flatly. As if this was the obvious truth. You look at him as if he is out of his mind “w-what !? I never dated him ?” You say. Yuji blinks at you slowly as if you just spoke in another language. “You weren’t dating him ? Then why did you-“ you hold on his forearm, now alerted, what the fuck was Kaito saying about you to people ?! “Yuji, why do you say that I was dating Kaito ?!”.

Yuji slowly leans back staring at you for a moment then he looks away “well people said you both were dating at the beginning of the year, he was only good with you and since you told me he was everything but a bully..people assumed you both are dating..he even said it himself”.

You feel something hot, something heavy in your chest, not only Kaito was a damn bully, but he definitely was a real piece of shit, seriously ? Lying because you told him to stay away from you ? Now half of the campus probably thought you were still his girlfriend or his ex girlfriend. Yuji is about to talk again but the door of the bathrooms open on Nobara “Yuji ? You told me you’d check up on her because it’s dangerous for women to get in bathrooms alone but here i find you ? Flirting with my friend ?” Nobara says surprised but also mad because she’s probably hungry.

Both yuji and you pull away, Yuji huffs and walks past you and Nobara, rubbing the back of his neck, his face a flush of pink. Nobara questions you with her eyes but you simply follow her out of the bathrooms..

__________________________________________

The following days are..pretty weird. You caught yourself looking for a pair of amber eyes around the campus. Whenever Nobara talked mentioned yuji you would immediately look up, and she started finding you suspicious..until one evening, you’re both in your shared dormitory, Nobara is doing her toenails, face focus on her foot, you’re laid half on the bed half on the floor, face upside down, balancing your legs in the air, scrolling on your phone when she speaks “Babe ?”

“Mhm..?” You barely look away from your phone, eyes glued on the photo on your instagram feed, cropped, rose-colored hair was tousled, giving him a perpetually energetic look. Muscled thigh flexing, foot reaching for the ball..a photo from the football team of the campus..he looked really good on it-

“oh my god ! I knew it !” Nobara gaps, spilling the nail polish on the floor but not caring at all, she’s got that huge smile on her face, eyes lightening. You were too stupid..in a trance you didn’t notice her peeking by your side.. “Drooling on Yuji’s photos huh ?” She drawls teasingly, your face burns, by reflex, you put the screen right against your chest, as if this would make her forget about the sight of you, with a little smile, staring at her best friend as if he was your childhood crush.

“I wasn’t drooling ! It was just on my feed..” you try to convince her a yourself at the same time but it’s game over. Nobara already knows everything. She lets her nails dry before holding your hands “imma hold your hand when I say this but..I’m so fucking excited ! Hahaaa ! You guys better get together he’s been over you since—“ she suddenly stops, eyes going wide, hands against her mouth.

What the fuck ?

“What did you just say—“ she rushes to you, dropping to her knees and holding your hands “Oh my god ! Please don’t tell me I told you ! Oh my god I’m such a bad friend” she wraps her arms around you, you Honeslty stay frozen, then slowly wrap your arms around her “uh..okay..I-i won’t tell him..” she pull away and sighs in relief “oh god, thank you, you’re the best..” You look at her hesitating then Lena closer whispering “so is it true..?” Nobara pulls back from your embrace and look at you with a wide smirk..time for the tea

__________________________________________

It’s maybe one am, you’re back from a guy’s dorm, yeah, he’s in your class and let’s say he’s nice. He texted you an hour ago telling you it’s an emergency and asking you if you could maybe bring him a charger. It’s only when you stood in front of his door that you understood. He was drunk, with his friends, and it was a dare.

You are now back int he boys dormitories hallway, walking back, totally annoyed. Being too kind will get you in he- you freeze when your eyes meet brown amber eyes. Yuji. He’s wearing some sweat pants and a black shirt, a little gym bag hanging in his back, probably working out lately ? His expression ain’t really pleased.

“What the fuck are you doin’ here ?” He asks, his tone is firm and totally..confused. You take time to remember you are in the boys dormitories hallway..at one am. “I-I uh..” you don’t get why you feel embarrassed to tell him..it’s not like you were doing something wrong right ? And even if you were, it wasn’t his business. You gather your courage and with a trembling voice you answer “it’s not your business..” you didn’t se convincing at all, hell you never told this to anyone.

Yuji raises an eyebrow looking down at you with an unimpressed expression, silence stretches between you both before he simply shrugs “okay.” His shoulder bumps into yours as he walks past you, like you were nothing. You stand there confused, then guilt starts to creep up..you turn “wait ! No actually I brought a c-“ “it’s not my business.” He answers coldly, not even turning to face you.

And God knows how it is frustrating to have the golden retriever being cold to you, you didn’t want that. Actually you wanted maybe..a reaction ? As he started to walk again, your hand wrapped around his wrist “Yuji!” He turned looking at you like he’s about to snap “why do you do that to me !?” You say, your tone full of frustration it was pathetic. Yuji looks at you like you’re crazy “wha-“ “why do you do that ? You’re nice to everyone but you’re like this only with me.” You cross your arms, giving a glare that expected real explications. Yuji flatly answers “you just told me to mind my business-“ “yeah well I don’t want you to mind your business ! I just-“ you cut yourself and sigh. “Whatever, forget it” you say and turn, walking in the opposite way, tired.

Why couldn’t you just apologise for the day you defended Kaito ? How could you when he was looking like this at you ? Maybe it’s because of the gets working in your head that you didn’t give much attention to him calling your name. A large hand wraps around your wrist, turning you to face back, you barely register the sudden movement that his lips are against yours. The hand holding your wrist finds its way to cup your jaw, his lips move slowly against yours. Your brain crashed out at the contact, then you melted into the kiss. Maybe that was true..you were lacking his attention, maybe you were desperate for his attention or maybe it was just the taste of his mouth against yours.

When he pulls away, few inches away, his eyes study yours, the your lips “I-uh..” it seems like he’s realising what he’ve done just now. Your hand covers his on your jaw “I’m sorry..I’m sorry I defended him while you tried to warn me..” you find yourself surprised as the words easily slipped out of your mouth. His eyes soften at your words and he pulls away, taking a step back, rubbing his neck as his face is a flush of pink “it’s uh fine..I guess, I thought you liked him..” he meets your eyes again before looking away, the flush on his face only deepening “and I-i shouldn’t have done that..I panicked and I- uh..” it was impressive to see the confident itadori yuji, actually stuttering-“ “I liked it” you say.

His eyes widen before looking away down “yeah..? You did ?” You can’t help but laugh, which causes him to glare at you “what’s funny ?!” You barely hold your laugh, if anything, his expression and flustered expression makes you laugh even more “n-nothing..! You’re just red” you tease. He rolls his eyes and looks at you intensely, recovering from his emotions “hey..uh you should probably go back to your dorm” you blink at him and nod “yeah, I should, good night” you tell him and start walking away..wondering if that’s it ? After what happened he tells you to leave— “hey ! Actually..” he rushes to you “d-do you want to go somewhere with me tomorrow ?” His hopeful tone makes you smile as you nod eagerly “yeah..sounds good..” you tell him. __________________________________________

You want to disappear, you’ve been waiting for maybe ten minutes by now, because you were too scared to be late so you came in advance. You feel like maybe your choice of clothing was too much ? Will he think you dressed up for him ? That was totally the case..but whatever he isn’t supposed to know ! Maybe this skirt was too much for a cinema, you’re interrupted in your overthinking when Yuji calls out your name.

He looks down at you and with a casual smile he just says “you’re pretty”, you barely have time to register the compliment that he takes your hand and leads you in the cinema. “What are we watching ?” You ask following him, he turns over to you with an excited smile “Human earthworm 4 ! You don’t need to watch the fist three movies don’t worry-“ he pauses staring at the floor for a moment, remembering what Nobara told him ‘If you’re taking her out, watch something romantic! Don scare her with your worms !’ (He asked her advice all night) “if you want to watch something else we can, I understand if you dot way to watch some disgusting creepy worms-“ he’s interrupted when you take his hand walking towards the watching room “It’s fine, if it’s scary, I’ll lean on you” you wink at him.

During the movie, you found yourself surprisingly liking the movie, you were much more into romcoms but it was a great change, and honestly, having Yuji explaining to you every character so you understand the movie was worth it changing styles. “Here ! This guy is the scientist, in the last movie he-“ he’s cut by the shush of some people in the room behind you. You give him a little grin and keep watching. You thought you’d count on him when horror scenes would appear, you found yourself being the one telling him when he could open his eyes when the monsters were gone. “It’s fine Yuji, the worm left the screen” you whisper, he looks at you with a sheepish smile then clears his throat, playing confident “I’m a great comedian, right ?”.

You both are now walking together, he bought you an iced tea since he saw you eyeing the vitrine, you convinced him to get himself one, and you advised him matcha. Anytime you would look away he would allow his face to grimace at the taste, but the would happily sip when you shared with him a random story. He didn’t want o hurt your feelings, you seemed so excited to make him taste matcha for the first time. You look at him “you don’t like it ?” You ask him, he widens his eyes and shakes his head “what ! No ! It’s soo good” he takes the plastic off and drinks the cup in one wide shot. You give him a laugh “yeah, really convincing..” he roll his eyes and wraps his arm around your shoulder “whatever, so what happened when she left..?” He asks you about your story, you felt oddly good at being this close to him. He smelled really good..

Maybe you’ve been seeking his attention all this time finally..

Attention Seeker ? (AU)

[mus4a]

Yuji notices you (AU)

“Ugh I’m starving, tonkotsu ramen ?” Grunts Yuji, putting on his compression shirt. Megumi ties his shoelaces“mhm, do we call Nobara ?” He asks. Yuji nods and walks towards the gym lockers, searching for his backpack. “Hey, have you seen my backpack ? I’ve left it here” he turns asking to Megumi who joins him.

“I told you to put it in a locker, not throw it on the floor” answers Megumi. Yuji has the habit of never putting his backpack in the gym lockers, not because he didn’t trust these lockers or for any silly reason..he just was always in a rush to start his workout. Megumi had been warning him about it so many times, but for months, yuji never listened, it became a habit for him since the day he subscribed to the campus gym. As soon as he steps a foot inside, he rushes with Megumi towards the lockers, making little jumps to warm up, stressing his friend even more. Then would leave his backpack in the floor and walk towards the machines, putting his earbuds on.

Yuji stared at the empty spot where he left his backpack, his eyes looking like a puppy who jsut lost his favourite treat, then Megumi calls out to him few meters away, holding his gym backpack. Yuji’s eyes light up as he rushes to him “you’re really the best, I should find you a girl” Yuji teases. Megumi only rolls his eyes and walks towards the exit. Yuji puts the backpack on and follows his friend, dialing Nobara’s number already to call her to join. __________________________________________

“Nobara, your phone keeps ringing !” You call out to your roommate who’s busy dining under the shower rather than actually getting out of the bathroom. You just got back from the gym, the showers of the gym ain’t working properly due to a plumbing problem, so you rushed here as soon as you left. Your biggest fear was probably having someone telling you stink, thank god that never happened yet, you would do anything to avoid this situation.

You dropped your backpack on the couch, the same instant, Nobara leaves the bathroom. “Who was calling ?” She asks, walking towards her phone on the table. “Yuji, I didn’t answer, you didn’t tell me to” you say already heading towards the bathroom door. Once you stepped inside the shower, your shoulders dropped, now relaxing, the warmth water glistening down all over your body making you almost fall asleep in the shower. You hum as you soap your body, you could hear Nobara on the phone “yeah I’m leaving the campus, I’ll be there in 10”. You can’t help but smile, leaving the campus ? With your towel and still in your dorm room ?

You finally stepped out of the shower, a towel around you and widens your eyes when you see Nobara still in her towel, staring at her closet. “Babe help me, what should I wear ?”. You grin and sits on your bed, facing her “mhm aren’t you supposed to be out of the campus right now ?” You muse, she rolls her eyes “oh Megumi and Yuji can wait in hell for all I care, I need to be pretty”. You help her choose a pretty outfit, you also select anything cosy to wear because you are planning n staying here and napping- “you sure you don’t wanna come ? Yuji will be here” she winks at you.

You roll your eyes though you can’t hide the flush on your face..you had that crush for yuji since that day you saw him, it was an afternoon, you went out for some shopping with Nobara, she told you she just had to give the boys her battery, because they forgot their own. You stepped in the campus swimming center , and your eyes stopped on that guy..Yuji . He was coming out of the water, droplets of water glistening all over his body as he laughed at something his friend said.

It wasn’t the fact that his body was muscular, even though his body was really impressive, but it was the way he looked so athletic, his laughter sounded so lighthearted, he was in his element, sport, his friends. You remember you and Nobara had brought them some water, yuji had rushed to both of you, followed by Megumi. Yuji was too busy staring at the paper bags, almost drooling you remember you hid a grin.

He sat with Megumi started eating as Nobara told them about your shared day, you were standing here, not knowing what to do, trying not to look awkward. Yuji had looked at you and raised an eyebrow “Who’s that, Nobara?”. You remember how you tensed and couldn’t even look in their eyes, you had stared at the floor, until Nobara introduced you to them as her roommate and new bestie. She had also commented about how good it was to finally have a girl daily and not two animals by her side.

Now you look at your towel in your hand, as you finished drying your hair, Nobara sits on the bed and tilts her head with a sympathetic look “y’know, Yuji is really nice, you could talk to him, and what do you know ? You’re pretty, maybe he already noticed you..” she smirks at you. But deeply, you know he didn’t notice you. At least yet, you could feel it every time you looked at him from across the campus, his eyes never once met yours, even after Nobara introduced you to him and Megumi. He had never recognised you as even her roommate.

You weren’t insecure about yourself, but you were realistic. You accepted that Yuji just probably wasn’t interested in you, or even didn’t know about your existence at all. He was already surrounded by so many people, his friends, some mates from the swimming lessons, but also, you know girls weren’t indifferent about him. It was pretty obvious, Yuji was far from ugly, and the more you stare at him, the more you find him attractive. And it can be seen through his appearance, but also through the way he runs when he has Athletic Conditioning for example. Som girls would sit on benches and watch the boys run, and you heard certain girls talking about him “Itadori is pretty fast..” or “Have you seen itadori’s thighs ? They’re so fit !”.

You look up at Nobara and smile “I don’t think he really knows who I am”. Nobara rolls her eyes and starts getting dressed “k could tell him about you y’know ? I’m sure he’s gonna find you pretty, I mean who doesn’t ?” You chuckle at her cheesy lines and walks towards the couch were you dropped your backpack. You open it, looking for your phone but freezes. Not only there wasn’t your phone inside it, but there was not your makeup pocket, not your charger, none of your belongings. Instead ? There was a small towel, a deodorant, a half empty water bottle, two protein bars smashed by the water bottle. You frown, what the hell ?

You look further into the items, you find a pen, keys of a dorm, and a small red fabric omamori with white embroidered stitching an a gold cord. Then, you pick the id student card from the campus that is in a pocket inside the backpack..your heart dropped when you read ‘虎杖 悠仁’ (Itadori Yūji). Nobara arrives from behind peeing over your shoulder “can I use your lipstick- is that Yuji’s card ?”

Your hand is shaking while holding his card..Nobara looks at you with a questioning look then she smiles slowly “oh you’re so smart..you took hi-“ you cut her “No I didn’t take it ! This is my backpack, why are his things here !?”. Nobara looks at the bag, and that was true, your brother had given you one of his gym backpacks because he had accidentally torn your pink one, telling you to keep this one until he buys you another one, you ended up going with your brother’s bag every time to the gym.

“So you and him have the same gym bag..” she slowly realises..you stare at the backpack on the couch “wait..that means he doesn’t have his items ? I don’t have my phone !” Nobara looks at you “babe, calm down, I’ll call yuji, maybe he’s got yours ? Maybe you both mistook each other’s bags ?” Nobara already walks to take her phone, you sit on the couch, in your pyjama, your hair still damp. Then you widen your eyes and jump to stop Nobara from dialling Yuji’s number “don’t !”.

Nobara startle staring at you as if you’re crazy “what ? Why ? Maybe he’s got yours-“ you snatch the phone from her hand, your eyes open in horror “I-i have a photo of him ! In my wallet !”. Nobara eyes widen, staring at you in horror “girl what !? He’s not even THAT good loo-“. Nobara’s phone in your hand rings, Yuji’s name appears on the screen. Both of you freeze.

Nobara tells you to put on speaker, when you do, yuji tells on the phone “Nobara where are you ? I’m starving, I’m trying to look polite waiting for you but honestly, my nature is empowering..” he jokes. You could hear Megumi calling him stupid or something similar. “I-uh I’m coming ! I’m coming with a friend !” She says. You hit her side with your elbow making hiss and glare at you. You mouth “why !?” She sighs you to keep it shut, yuji talks again “yeah ? Who ?- whatever just make it quick my stomach can’t take it anymore, it’s hungry” Nobara just hangs up.

“What the hell ?” You look at her as if she went crazy. “We gotta go, you give his bag and you take his before he opens the bag and fall on your damn photo !”.

So here you are, in your pyjamas, ridiculous ones..your flip flops with socks..yeah..you were too much in a rush..hair still damp. Both of you running for your lives. __________________________________________

“I don’t get why she’s taking so long !” Yuji whines, Megumi rolls his eyes “you’ve been staring at your plate for ten minutes, at this point, just eat”. Yuji shakes his head stubbornly “tsk, who do you think I am ? I can perfectly wait.” He tries to convince himself.

Yuji remembers he’s got protein bars in his backpack, and two, so he takes it from under the table of the ramen shop and opens it. Universe was definitely against his hunger. Instead of finding his protein bars, his bottle and his gym items..he finds a little bag inside, he unzips it and frowns..was that makeup ? Pads ? Megumi raises an eyebrow, his gaze definitely questioning..”You wear..makeup ?” Anyone listening could hear the astonishment in Megumi’s tone.

Yuji widens his eyes “the fuck !? No ! I-what the hell is this doing here ?” He looks further into the backpack but he only finds a pale pink little towel, a phone, a charger, earbuds, a wallet and a pink bottle of water. Everything was pink.

Yuji stares in horror at the backpack..fuck..not only he doesn’t have his backpack, but he doesn’t have his lucky charm..the one his grandfather gave him. Megumi looks at him “Yuji, hand me the wallet”. Yuji frowns “what ? You gonna steal ?!” Megumi gives him a flat look and just snatches the wallet out of Yuji’s hands. “It was in the campus gym, obviously there is an id student card in here, we will see who lost their bag-“ Megumi stops talking when he opens the wallet. There is a little photo with a tiny heart sticker gluing it to the wallet.

Megumi is speechless as he stares at the inside of the wallet, his eyes stay glued on the photo for maybe ten seconds before closing the wallet abruptly, making Yuji frown “what ? It’s empty ?” Yuji is about to stand to sit next to Megumi when the door of the ramen shop bursts open. Everyone looks to the entry, Nobara jumps on Megumi, snatching the wallet away, you instinctively jumped on Yuji, trying to snatch the backpack away. Yuji’s reflexes are on point as he grabs the backpack, pulling too “Megumi are you okay !? Hey ! Help ! There’s a thief !” He calls in the ramen shop. He didn’t recognise you. Of course, you had that stupid sponge bob printed pyjama, your identity masked by the hood of your hoodie. There was no way you would let Yuji see you in those pyjamas. Nobara immediately stands up, Megumi rubs his head, she turns looking over at you and Widnes her eyes calling your name. Yuji stops pulling the bag, making you fall on your back, your backpack falling over you..all your makeup is on the floor..so are the pads..right over you.

Nobara gasps in horror “Yuji ! What are you doing !”, she puts her hand against her own mouth. Shit, she said your name. Megumi looks back at the wallet, at the id card..making the ties with your name. You lay here like a starfish, so done with everything. You never experience something so awkward. Nobara immediately helps you back up and gathers all your pads and belongings from the floor. You take off your hood slowly, revealing your appearance and Yuji Widnes his eyes “oh my god, I almost punched you !”.

You avoid his eyes, wanting to disappear, fed up that your plan was failed, you take back your backpack and hands him his own “I’m sorry..I mistook your bag with mine at the gym. I’m sorry for the confusion-“ Yuji cuts you “You’re Nobara’s roommate, right ?”. You stare at him..eyebrows raised up..h-he did recognise you..? He remembered you ..? Yuji smiles and even say your name..he definitely remembered you. And for once in your life, you wished he didn’t..not like that, not after trying to steal your own bag from him in a ridiculous sponge bob pyjama..

You all walk out of the ramen shop, the owner kicked you guys out, you really reached the peak of embarrassment, you wanted to disappear, to get in your bed and cry until your eyes become puffy and you coolant see anymore. Nobara walks silently next to you, feeling guilty for accidentally letting your name slip out of her mouth, you can feel Megumi’s eyes on you..at the instant you don’t care why, it’s probably because of how ridiculous you looked right now.

“Thank you” you turn to Yuji, wondering what was he thanking you for..maybe for the entertainment ? The show ? “What-“ “you brought me my bag back, I thought I had lost my Lucky charm, I’m really grateful, thank you” he says with a smile, a genuine smile that outlines the little lines at the corner of his eyes..your heart missed a beat. “Don’t worry…thank you for keeping my things safe”. He smiles back at you unaware that this night you wouldn’t be able to sleep because of those little butterflies inside you.

An hour later, Megumi and Yuji are walking towards their shared dormitory, Megumi can’t help the amused smile on his face “I can’t believe we got kicked out of the ramen shop.” Yuji smiles, amused by the situation too “yeah, She’s funny..did you see her pyjamas ? It was sponge bob !”. Megumi raises an eyebrow “that’s all you noticed ?” Yuji chuckles “Can you blame me ? You couldn’t miss it, I should buy her a new powder, Nobara said it broke because of me”.

Megumi hums simply, hiding a smile “mhm, you should, I’m sure she’ll appreciate it..” He didn’t forget the photo in your wallet and Nobara pinching his sides, telling him that if he told yuji she would make sure he can’t speak anymore..

You got an admirer, Yuji..
