academic rivals to lovers with canas
pairing: canas x gn!reader
tags: silly missunderstandings (+resolution), happy ending
you were convinced that canas hated you!
after all, he always snatched away the books you were about to borrow from the library
and he always smiled at you so innocently when he did, as if he was trying to hide what he was doing!
it was really starting to annoy you, to the point where you had planned to just steal one of his books right before his eyes!
and when you finally did so, you smiled at him the same stupid way he always smiled at you!
though that only made the situation worse!
now the two of you were borrowing books just to keep them away from the other and those books started to pile up in your rooms
one day, canas finally snapped at you in the library, asking you what your deal was and why you hated him so much
it ended up with both of you just throwing accusations at each other and eventually getting kicked out of the library for being so loud
outside, you were forced to calm down a little and you finally mentioned how canas had been the one starting this all, by stealing the books you wanted to read right from under your nose
though canas insisted that he had never meant any harm! he was genuinely interested in those books and had only smiled at you because he had hoped to befriend you
but then things escalated and ended up like this, with both of you banned from the library…
you end up apologizing to canas, feeling pretty stupid now that you realized you had been in the wrong all this time
though canas admits that he wasn't all innocent either
and he suggests that perhaps he could make things up to you by buying you one of those books you were so desperate to read
and maybe you'd even lend it to him afterwards, so that the two of you could exchange thoughts about it…
