"Suck it and see, you never know"

ノㅤ﹕ft. phainon x fem (but can be viewed as gn) reader, high school au, written pre-cerydra release, written pre-cyrene release, might be ooc, very self-indulgent lol, fluff

You sigh, for the past year your crush on Phainon has only gotten worse. Youve been charmed by him since the first day of school, and now whenever you two interact you can barely think straight!

And thats quite an issue, since you see him a lot. like, almost every day! Siiiigh... oh the pros and cons of sharing a mutual friend group. Not only that, but you share a bunch of classes too. Gosh, hes so dreamy! Every time you see him compete in debate team competitions he looks cooler every time, like he knows hes going win. Well come to think of it he usually does—

"Y/nnnnnnn? Helloooo? Youve been staring at that burger for ten minutes straight now!"

The voice of one of your friends, Cerydra, breaks you out of your thoughts. The two of you went along with the rest of your group to the mall to buy clothes and supplies for the new school year. You glance around, noticing that the rest of your friends were no where to be spotted around the food court.

"Where are Cassie and the rest?" You ask, finally biting into your, now a little cold, burger.

"They went to the restroom while you were zoning out." She pauses to take a sip of her drink. "What were thinking about so hard anyway? You only get so lost in thought when– oh god damn it were you thinking about The Salad again?!"

The Salad ™, is the nickname you guys came up with for when you want to talk about your super secret and totally not obvious crush, named after his rather pathetic salads.

Cerydra sighs, slouching into her chair as she pinches the bridge of her nose in exasperation. "Y/n. Youve been pining after this man for almost a year and a half now. When are you going to ask him out already?"

You sigh. "I dunno... I mean, i dont even know if he likes-likes me in the same way, yknow?" You pause, mixing your lemonade around with the straw. "And if he doesnt... Well, i would rather hold my tongue than make things get awkward between us."

Cerydra listens closely, as the student council president she likes to take a more logical approach to giving advice. Once she told you to try dropping small yet clear hints, only for them to fly over phainons head completely. Now shes honestly ran out of ideas other than to help you get the balls to ask him out.

As you two were eating while pondering the next step of operation: 'get phainon and y/n to marry already!!! open parenthesis, name subject to change as per y/ns request, closed parenthesis', also known as operation: 'Snowy', the rest of your friends returned.

Noticing the concentrated looks on your faces, castorice speaks up first. "Is something wrong? You two seem really focused on something."

Aglaeas eyes flick between you and cerydra, figuring out what was going on almost immediately. "Operation 'Snowy'?" She asks and cerydra nods to affirm. Agy lets out a small laugh as she sits down to join you two in brain storming, castorice and hyacine following suit.

Your little group of five slowly start sharing ideas on what to do, with some casual conversation and high school gossip mixed in between. Eventually, you all land on one consensis, just ask him and let it play out naturally.

"The worst he can say is no, n/n. Its better to risk it and get closure than to yearn into oblivion!" Says hyacine, the freshman your friendgroup recently adopted, the other girls nod along. With all of their support, you feel like asking phainon out isnt such a challenge after all.

•• ━━━━━ ••●•• ━━━━━ ••

And as the first week of school breezed past... you still made no progress. Youre not the one to blame though! Every time you tried to slip asking him out into a conversation, it either flies over his head or your conversations get cut short and you miss your shot.

You internally sigh, maybe it was fate that you just are not meant to be. Now you sit dejectedly in history class, barely listening to the teacher as you gaze outside of the window.

You managed to catch that theres a group project going on, and that you paired with some classmate youre barely acquainted with. Maybe working on this could distract you from your failed atempts at flirting, all you can do is hope your partner listened to the rest of the details of the project.

"Excuse me, miss." Anaxagoras calls out, raising his hand. "Could i request that me and y/n swap partners? I need to tutor their partner so working on this project could help." He explains plainly. his current partner, phainon, shooting him the same surprised look you were as the teacher agreed to anaxas request.

"Anaxa! Oh come on, you cant just abandon me!" "Hush. You will be fine. Y/n is pretty good at history, they can help you out just fine." At Anaxas words, phainon glanced at you. A small, apologetic smile spreading across his face.

Anaxagoras, oh how you vow to never forget to say your impromptu wingmans full name! He doesnt even know how much hes helping you out, yet you are forever thankful!

You pack your stuff up quickly as the bell rings, eager to return to your friends and tell them what just happened. As you were almost out the door, you feel a hand on your shoulder.

"Hey, hold on a sec." Phainons voice calls out from behind you, you turn around a small, sheepish smile on his face. "About that project, dont get the wrong idea! I dont mind working with you i just... kinda suck at history. So i wouldnt wanna cause you troube you know?"

"Oh no, no. Youre not causing me any trouble!" And before you knew it, the words just slipped from your mouth. "I can tutor you, if you would like. I mean, im no anaxagoras, but my study methods are pretty good."

"Wait really?" Phainons eyes light up, the cute sight almost making your heart melt. "You have my number, right? We can meet up somewhere to work on the project, i'll text you the details!"

You nod along, your heart racing. Did this really just happen? You. Snagged some alone time with phainon?! THE SALAD?? Oh you need to tell your friends about this! You also need their advice on how to go about this, oh your heart could almost jump out of your chest from how excited you are!

You two split up and go your seperate ways, each to their own friend group. Little did you know however–

"ANAXAAAA!!" Phainon yelled as he ran down the hallway to catch up to the teal-haired boy. "How about next time you warn me before you decide to play cupid?! Youre lucky that went well!"

Anaxagoras rolled his eyes as he grabbed a book from his locker. "We all would have lived through three lifetimes if someone didnt give you a push in the right direction."

"Oho?~ is that drama i smell?" Cynere teased as she approached the group, the seniors eyes immediately landed on Phainon, who was so flushed that he looked like he ran a full marathon.

"Whats up with phainon though? Ive never seen him get this red." She asks, a hint of concern hidden behind her cheerful voice.

"Phainon and y/n are having an unofficial date, thats what happened." Anaxa said with a sigh, crossing his arms. "Helping this guy is truly a thankless charity."

Cyrene face lights up as those words grace her ears. Her face twisting into a playful smirk. "Ah~ so you finally managed to make the first move! Baby steps, soon the two of you will be inseparable lovebirds!"

Phainon groaned in emberassment, even so, he was thankful he had friends like these two to help him out. He probably never would have managed to get this far without them, even if they joke at his expense sometimes.
