Oblivious Heart - (A Male Reader x Rinko Shirokane Fanfiction)

Chapter 22 - On the Way Home

Rinko's P.O.V

"Shirokane-san, let me hold onto that for you." He said as he reaches his hand out.

"Oh, okay...thank you..." I said as I give him the bag that carried the HorizOne that Yuki-san had given us a little while ago.

We're currently walking home. Anon-san politely offered to see me all the way through because it's so late.

Although he's probably going to be going home all alone this late as well....

But this is making me so nervous. I've never walked home with a boy before... I don't know what to say to him... I don't know what to talk about... I mustn't make this situation awkward....

"Did you have fun back there Shirokane-san?" He asked me.

"Ah, yes! I did...It was fun working with everyone..." I replied.

"It really was... You could say that my Sunday wasn't wasted at all!" He said.

"Ah! I may have forgotten it's a Sunday..." I said.

Since we've been so pre occupied this week... I kind of forgot that it's Sunday.

"Eh?! Are you gonna be fine? Did you have any homeworks left unfinished?!" He asked.

He seems worried.

"Don't worry, I had them all finished before the weekend started." I said.

"That's great! The same goes for me actually, that's why I was able to play all day since Saturday rolled around~" He said.

"You really do love the game don't you? Anon-kun?" I said.

"Of course I do! We get to hang out there! And like, I can be someone completely different from who I am in real life within the game..." He said.

Wait a second... I'm casually talking to him?? What's this...

Why is Anon-kun so easy to talk to?

"This is a little unusual..." I said.

"What is?" He asked.

"Ah! It's not what you think!! I just thought that it's unusual for me to be talking so casually with you all of a sudden..." I told him.

"A lot of people say that I'm an easy to talk to kind of person. So it's really assuring that even someone like you would find it easy to talk to me." He said.

It's....assuring...???

"You're very nice Anon-kun. Im sure that's also a reason why people like to talk to you." I said.

Anon-kun is really nice. He's been nothing but nice since I met him after all.

"Niceness is one of the few things I got going for me!" He said.

What does he mean by that?

"No way! You've got lots of good things going for you!" I said.

Oh no! I accidentally lashed out on him all of a sudden?!?!

"I was just joking..." He said.

"I'M SORRY ANON-KUN!!!" I immediately apologized.

"Ahhh... that's what you meant..." He said.

I explained why I lashed out earlier. It was kind of unfair for him to be saying that he only has niceness and a few things going on for him when he's obviously more than that.
