lost cat: two

To your surprise, you were in the same class as the three guys you met earlier. Chifuyu happily waved at you as you entered the classroom. If anyone sees it, they might think that you two are friends.

You awkwardly waved back at him and plastered a gentle smile. At least my senior year will be okay... I guess. My classmate is friendly. You pondered. Last thing you want is to get involve in a high school drama.

Your gaze shifted to Chifuyu's tall cousin who is sitting beside him. The tall, black-haired male was staring at the big window, looking bored, early in the morning as if it felt like he didn't want to be there.

Their other cousin, Kazutora, is busy introducing himself to your girl classmates on the other side of the classroom. Three cousins with three different personalities. That's interesting.

Chifuyu got your attention back when he gestured you to sit next to him. You looked around and noticed that every seat was already taken so you had no choice but to oblige.

"Wow! it's like destiny that we're at the same class, right? Right? Kei-chan?" Chifuyu cheerfully said as he rest his head on his palm. 

Still feel a bit awkward, you just smiled at him. "Kei?" You asked, tilting your head to the side. It almost sounds like the black cat, Kie-chan.

"Yeah! That's his nickname." Chifuyu leaned close to whisper. "But he hated that nickname. I think it's cute, though."

"Shut up fuyu-cchi." Baji snarled and glared at Chifuyu while his chin is still resting on his palm.

"See?" Chifuyu paused and returned his gaze at Baji. "Hey! don't call me that!"

"Then stop calling me Kei-chan. You know I hate that nickname."

"Tch. grumpy!"

"You know," you suddenly said, not wanting the light atmosphere to turn heavy. Baji and Chifuyu stopped bickering and looked at you. It's funny because they turned their heads in unison.

You cleared your throat to hide your chuckle. "I named a cat Kie-chan, short for Keiran, since his fur is black, and from what I can tell, Keisuke-san and Kie-chan have the same attitude." You giggled, but quickly composed yourself when your eyes met Baji's once again. However, the black-haired man hastily averted his gaze. He seemed upset by what you had just said.

Why can't I look at her without remembering what happened earlier? And why on earth is she in our class? Ah! Erase it in your mind, Keisuke! Erase that image. Baji thought.

Chifuyu looked at his cousin and gave him a mischievous smirk. Baji, who knows exactly what his cousin meant by his smirk, ignored the blue-eyed male and looked back at the window instead.

The first half of the day went smoothly which you are grateful for. It's now lunchtime and you're looking around, trying to strike a conversation with your girl classmates, but cannot find the right timing. It seems like they already form their circles, and you're a bit scared to approach them.

Chifuyu noticed it, so he quickly ran towards you.

"Hey, where are you going? The cafeteria will  be packed. I want my peyoung!" Baji said, following his cousin.

"Wait for me!" Kazutora exclaimed and excused himself from the the girls around him. 

"Hey, y/n, are you having lunch?"

"Uhm..." You glance behind Chifuyu and there, you saw Baji staring at you with his eyebrows furrowed. "Yes."

"Great! We're having lunch too. Join us."
