Pretty When You Cry////Asahi Azumane x Male/NB Reader

Chapter XVII

"We can talk about it on our way to school." I smiled and slipped my hand around his muscular arm. Jeri sat back at the table and picked up his newspaper once more.

"Have fun kids, but not-"

"Jeri, get a job you leaching bum." I interrupted him, a heavy blush covered my face as I knew what he would say. He gasped and chuckled.

"I'm trying. Go to school you'll be late." I smiled and walked away, Asahi bowed and followed behind me to the door. I knelt and slipped on my shoes, looking over to him I smiled again. His soft brown eyes shone with the morning sun peeking through our front window. He quickly finished up with his shoes and looked over to me, surprised to see me looking over at him.

"A-are you okay Y/N? Does your head hurt?"

"No, I'm fine, let's not be late, yeah?" He grabbed my bag and opened the door for me, allowing the cool breeze to touch my skin. I walked outside and Asahi followed. We walked down the stairs to Danny's coffee

"I-I was wondering if I could hold your hand?" Asahi looked down to the ground as his precious words slipped from his tongue. I smiled, a warm blush ravaging my face.

"Yes please." He then slipped his larger hand into mine and intertwined our fingers. He kept his arm close to his side, pulling me closer to him. I rested my head on his arm. I felt my heartbeat relax as we walked.

"It's a nice day outside huh," I spoke up, breaking our silence.

"Yeah, I have practice today so I can't walk home with you, but I want you to rest up okay?"

"Can't I just stay to watch? I promise I won't get hurt, I'll be above the players instead."

"I mean it would be really fun if you were there." He signed and smiled. "Yeah okay. I want you there but stay away from Hinata's receives." He looked down at me as I laughed, brushing off his sweet concern.

"Yeah, I will." We continued to walk in silence, enjoying each other's company and the sound of morning birds. The top of our school came into our view as more of our peers appeared around us. Asahi looked around and down at me, I looked at him and smiled. However, he slipped his hand and walked in front of me, leaving me feeling cold.

"A-Asahi? Are you okay?" I asked walking closer to him.

"Ah! L/N, it's nice to see you! How are you?" He curled his lips to a fake smile.

"Fine. I'll see you at practice!" I jogged to the school, as far away from Asahi as I could get.

I understand that he's scared about others knowing of our relationship, but he didn't need to act like we were strangers. Lucy, what's your take on this? I waited for a response. But again, there was nothing but dead air.

Lucy? Wake up already, I-

"Hey L/N!" a cheerful voice called his name."You're back! Why the long face haha!" I looked around me and saw no one.

Lucy is that you?

"Hey, stop playing games, I'm down here!" A small hand pulled my attention to see Nicanoya tugging at my uniform.

"Haha! I'm so sorry Noya! I didn't mean to be rude." I chuckled and nervously scratched my neck.

"Ugh, whatever, let's get to class!" He said running away, I quickly changed into my school shoes and followed him. I turn back for a second looking for Asahi. There he was, talking with a group of third years, he didn't look nervous at all. He looked comfortable talking with them, unlike when he's with me. My heart jerked and my breath was taken at the sight.

Y/N stop it. He might have needed to see his friends alone. That doesn't mean anything, stop overthinking. I shook my head and followed Noya to class.
