In the name of love

And ill find your lips in the street lights

In which Nezuko , a high school sophomore with a sudden burst of popularity thanks to her older brother Tanjiro winning student body President, befriends and inevitably falls for nerdy high school sophomore Muichiro Tokito after sharing a study table in the library during free period.

The moment her older brother Tanjiro was named Student Body President, Nezuko Kamado knew one thing for sure.

That her social stock was going to raise tenfold, and she was going to be one of the most popular sophomores at Kimetsu High.

Okay, so maybe she wasn't exactly hurting in the popularity department to begin with, Tanjiro , her older brother, once told her that popularity came with the territory, by which he meant the last name Kamado .

But outside her cheer team, she was only popular by association. Inevitably every few months someone would see her scampering out of the backseat of Tanjiro's car and cozy on up to her for a few weeks in an attempt to get in her brother's good graces and magically deemed worthy of the proverbial queen bee of Kimetsu High.

Tanjiro was typically the one to clue her in on it too.

So of course, when Nezuko finds herself sharing a study table during her free period in the library with a boy she's certain she's never seen, she's a little more than surprised when the boy in question pulls his ear buds out and greets her by name.

"Pardon?" She questions as she raises her eyes from where she's scribbling furiously across in her social studies notebook.

The boy blushes, red from the tips of his ears all the way down to under the collar of his black t-shirt.

"I said good morning Nezuko ." He half mumbles, eyebrows furrowing together, not quite being able to meet her eyes from across the table.

Nezuko gives pause, because he looks so achingly familiar and yet she really has no clue who this admittedly cute boy is or why he would know her name.

"Uhh. Good morning..." She trails off, hoping eyebrow boy catches on to her not knowing who he is.

"Ohh. Oh um. Sorry. Muichiro . My name. My name is Muichiro . And I probably sound like an idiot. I'm just going to put these ear buds back in and leave you alone then."

The boy, Muichiro , stumbles through the introduction and hastily shoves the aforementioned ear buds back into his ears before he slumps even further down into his chair and picks back up his copy of the AP English Language and Composition book she has seen Sansa spend hours pouring over at the kitchen table with the help of Robbs friend Jon Snow. It's then when Nezuko realizes that
Muichiro must hang around tanjiro sometimes , and she can't help but wonder why he's even making an attempt to talk to her.

"Excuse me, Muichiro?" She begins, "You don't happen to be friends with my brother by any chance?"

Muichiro looks up the moment he hears her say his name, teal eyes wide as if he's surprised she even acknowledged his presence when he's the one that started all of this in the first place.

"Uh, we take a couple classes together if that's what you're asking? Tanjiro and I aren't exactly friends."

"Oh. I see." Is all she can come up with, and rather lamely at that.

"Which is not to say your brother isn't very nice, because Tanjiro is nice to everyone, how else would he have won student body president so decisively? It's just, uh, we don't exactly run in the same err... social circles." He tells her with a grimace.

"What social circle do you run in? I feel like I should know you. Have I seen you at a party or something?"

"Uhhhh... probably not. Unless you've crashed an after party with the theater kids, which I know you haven't, because I would definitely have noticed."
