hi! this is kinda my first time requesting a fic so like ahhhh
Uhm, so could i request kyojuro fluff? modern/both are students in university au? basically rivals to lovers sorta things :D
so it kinda just starts out with reader & kyo (who have opposite personalities) being forced to partner up for some sort of group project bcs everyone else already has a dang group and the only person available was absent. an’ then there’s just sum like bickering as they plan out the project.
a few days into working on the project, they head to like a cafe or smth and someone mistakes them for a couple (heh. i mean cmon, they bicker like an old married couple). anyways, after that whole debacle, they continue working on the project together.
and at the very end, they realise “oh sh-t, i kinda like them!” >///<
so in summary: kyojuro and reader get partnered up for a project bcs the only person who they could partner with is not there, they bicker snd scold each other as they plan the project. when they head to the cafe and actually work on the actual assignment, someone mistakes them for a couple bcs they’re bickering like on! and when they do finish, both realise “oh i kinda like em..”
im not sure if this works, but uhm… yeah! tysm!!!
Sorry for the delay!! I hope this is what you wanted!!
The sun was setting, casting a golden hue over the bustling university campus. Students were scattered across the green lawns, chatting, laughing, and working on their assignments. The large, ancient oak trees rustled in the warm breeze, their leaves dancing in the twilight.
You were sitting at the back of the lecture hall, flipping through your notes with a sigh. The professor had just announced a major group project, and as usual, everyone had already formed their groups, leaving you stranded. You weren’t exactly the most outgoing person, preferring to keep to yourself rather than mingling with others.
The door creaked open, and in walked Kyojuro Rengoku, his usual bright smile plastered on his face. His fiery hair was hard to miss, and his energetic aura seemed to fill the entire room. You groaned inwardly. Of all people, why did he have to be the one without a partner?
The professor clapped her hands to get everyone’s attention. “Alright, everyone! It looks like we have an odd number of students today, so Y/N and Kyojuro will be partnering up.”
Kyojuro’s eyes met yours, and he beamed. “Looks like it’s you and me!”
You sighed, feeling a mix of annoyance and resignation. “Yeah, great.”
A few days later, you and Kyojuro found yourselves in the library, trying to figure out how to tackle the project. The atmosphere was tense, the quiet whispers of other students and the rustling of pages creating a backdrop to your bickering.
“We should start by outlining the main points,” Kyojuro suggested, his voice cheerful as always.
You rolled your eyes. “No, we need to gather all our research first. Outlining comes later.”
Kyojuro’s smile faltered for a moment, but he quickly recovered. “I see your point, but if we don’t have a clear direction, our research might be all over the place.”
You crossed your arms, glaring at him. “And if we outline without research, we’ll miss important information.”
The debate went back and forth, neither of you willing to budge. It felt like an eternity before you both reluctantly agreed on a compromise.
“Fine,” you said, scribbling in your notebook. “We’ll outline a rough draft while we research.”
Kyojuro nodded, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. “Sounds good to me.”
A few days later, you decided to take a break from the library and head to a cozy little cafe off-campus. The warm, inviting aroma of freshly brewed coffee and baked goods filled the air as you sat down with your laptops and notebooks.
The cafe was a quaint little place with wooden tables, soft lighting, and shelves lined with books and plants. It had a calming atmosphere, a stark contrast to the usual hustle and bustle of campus life.
You were deep in discussion, your voices rising slightly as you argued over the best way to present your findings.
“Your idea is too convoluted,” you snapped, frustration evident in your tone.
Kyojuro chuckled, unfazed. “And yours is too simplistic.”
A barista passing by overheard your conversation and smiled. “You two remind me of an old married couple,” she said with a wink before walking away.
Both of you froze, turning to look at each other with wide eyes. An awkward silence settled between you, the previous tension replaced by a different kind of discomfort.
You quickly brushed it off, clearing your throat. “Let’s just focus on the project.”
Kyojuro nodded, but there was a slight blush on his cheeks. “Yeah, let’s do that.”
As the weeks passed, you found yourselves spending more and more time together, your initial animosity slowly turning into something more tolerable. You still bickered, but it felt different now—more playful than hostile.
One evening, you were putting the finishing touches on your project. The sun had long set, and the campus was quiet, the only sound being the tapping of keys and the occasional murmur of conversation.
The library was nearly empty, the dim lighting casting long shadows on the walls. You glanced at Kyojuro, who was focused intently on the screen, his fiery hair glowing under the desk lamp. A strange warmth spread through your chest, and you realized with a start that you didn’t mind his company. In fact, you kind of liked it.
Kyojuro looked up, catching your gaze. “Something on your mind?”
You shook your head, a small smile tugging at your lips. “Just thinking.”
He tilted his head, curious. “About what?”
You hesitated for a moment before deciding to take a chance. “About how this project turned out better than I expected.”
Kyojuro’s smile widened. “Yeah, I have to agree. We make a pretty good team, don’t we?”
You nodded, feeling a flutter in your stomach. “Yeah, we do.”
As you both packed up your things, you couldn’t help but feel a sense of excitement for what the future might hold—not just for your grades, but for the unexpected friendship that had blossomed between you and Kyojuro.
