*Kei's pov*
I saw as Yamaguchi sat down on his chair after presenting himself. He was clearly embarrassed and his face was bright red which made his freckles more notable. He tried covering it with his hair by letting it fall, but it didn't really work, probably anyone who looked his way would notice.
*After class was over and it was lunch time*
I packed my stuff and stood up, making my way to Yamaguchi's desk. He was still packing his stuff so I decided to wait for him. He looked up and stared at me. "Oh hi! What are you doing, standing there?" He said, while picking up his bag and standing up too. "I'm waiting for you, I though that maybe you wanted to have lunch with me today." I asked while adjusting my glasses, trying to hide my blush. "Oh sure! That would be fun" He said while giving me that warm, big, smile of his. Seriously, can he be any more adorable?

*Yamaguchi's POV*
"Ready?" He asked. "Yes let me just-" That's the last thing I said before tripping and making us both fall, him on top of me. "Oh I- um- I'm- I'm sorry!" He said while blushing and looking away, finding a way of getting off of me.
He stood up first and gave me hand for me to stand up too. I picked up the couple books I dropped and then we left the classroom without exchanging a single word.
That silence went on for around 5 minutes, we walked down the hall together until we got to some stairs. "Where are we going? Isn't the patio this way?" I said while pointing to the left. He shook his head and said "the patio is too noisy, there's lots of people and they're annoying, that's why I'm taking you to the rooftop. It's much peaceful up there" I nodded and kept following him upstairs.

We sat in a bench and grabbed our lunches. "So- um- yams?" He looked at his lunch and then at me. "Y-yams?" I found it weird, cute, but weird. "Oh yea, um since were like friends now I thought maybe I should give you a nickname so instead of Yamaguchi, Yams. I can stop if you want me to." "Nono, it's fine, I like it, it's just that nobody has given me a nickname before and I was surprised, that's it." I gave him a reassuring smile.
He was about to say something else when I remembered I didn't even knew his name. "You have given me a nickname already but I don't even know your name!! I'm so sorry- ugh I feel so bad now.." I said while covering my face with my hands. "Oh, you're right, I never told you my name, it's not your fault Yams..." he said while patting my shoulder. "I'm Tsukishima Kei." He whispered in my ear. I felt his breath on my ear. I can't describe how it felt. It's like if my heart had skipped a beat. I tensed up for a second but I relaxed not long after.
I then snapped my fingers. "I got it!" I said while standing up energetically. "What?" He gave me a confused look. "Your nickname will be...Tsukki!" I said, very proud of the nickname I had made up, just for him. "Tsukki? Sounds cute, I like it" "I'm glad you like it, Tsukki" I said while poking his arm playfully.
