CHAPTER FIFTEEN

I read the last line on the page and then turned it, as I did I glance at the man beside me. When he caught my eyes he made this fake grumpy face and then put his pointer finger again on my cheek to make me focus on what I am reading. What he did made me smile. Why exactly does he want me to read instead of spending time with him?

My hand went up to rub my left eye and a small yawn followed that. The library is just too quiet and it made the atmosphere cold and comfy that it made me yawn. An illustration is on the new page I am reading and it is a drawing of a cigarette. Just that photo and again I glanced at the man beside me.

"What again? Just keep reading (Y/N)." He told me and made that fake grumpy face again.

My eyes slightly opened wide when I heard what he said. He didn't call me the normal way he always does. Eventually he realizes what he said because of the expression on my face.

"-san, uhm (Y/N)-san." He corrected, clearing his throat and avoiding my eyes.

He turned his head to the other side, completely avoiding me. I let out a silent chuckle and shake my head. It's not like it's a bad thing, I was just surprised to hear him say that. If I'm being honest, I would prefer it if he calls me by just my name.

I copied his position and then poke the back of his head to make him look at me. When he did he has this faint blush on his cheeks. He was surprised to see me up close but he didn't leaned away and stayed there.

"It's fine, I think it's about time you call me just by my name." I said, smiling while I look into his eyes.

"Then-" He started. "Then call me by my name too." He said still with pink tinted cheeks. I nod my head in agreement.

"Of course, Shinichiro."

"(Y/N)."

I glanced away from the book I'm reading and turned to him for the nth time. He has this huge grin on while he has his hands cupping his own cheeks. I smile back at him and nod my head.

"Yes?" I asked, slightly raising my eyebrows.

"Nothing." He said after letting out a small chuckle.

I went back to the book I am trying so hard to read. He said earlier he won't distract me but now he's really really going against his words. I just stared at the illustrations in the book, waiting for him to call my name again just like how he's been doing so for a while now.
