Before I knew it I stood in front of Owada's door, a pit of anxiety forming in my stomach. The door had his nameplate on it like the other ones but it was tilted to the side slightly. It must be because of how much he slammed his door. I chuckled at the thought and knocked on the door hesitantly. No answer. I tried to walk away with relief because I didn't particularly want to talk to him, but I was stopped in my tracks by the door rattling lightly.
"Togami? What the hell are you doing here at.. 2 am?" Owada asked groggily, it being obvious I woke him up. Owada's hair was out of its ridiculous pompadour and in a messy bun. In all honesty, he looked good. For being woken up of course.
"Did I wake you? I... apologize if I did." I sighed and stared at the floor, not wanting a punch to the gut. Owada seemed the type of person who gets irritable when woken up.
"Yes, you woke me. It's fine though. Do you need something?" he asked lazily.
"Oh no, I just wanted to see if you were okay."
"Since when did you give a fuck about me?"
"I don't care about you. I just got a nervous feeling."
"Wow. Thanks. Well, I'm fine so go away."
"Shouldn't you at least thank me? I checked on you after all."
"I'm not thanking you. You've pissed me off now."
"Jesus. Fine." I huffed and walked back to my room but I stopped myself turned around and put my foot in his door before he could close it.
"What the hell?" he said in an angry tone.
"Your hair looks... nice in a bun instead of that ridiculous pompadour," I said cautiously.
A visible blush appeared on his face and he averted his gaze, seeming to contemplate something, "You act like you hate me but I don't think you do..." he said teasingly which caused me to blush too.
"I can barely tolerate you now," I said defensively.
"Well, I can tolerate you too," he replied with a slight grin.
I nodded and we said goodnight to each other and I turned around and I entered my room again. I laid down on the bed and I sighed as I laid the cheap-feeling blanket over me. I couldn't shake the guilt of waking him. I sighed but I was a little glad that we had a slightly nice conversation. I kept thinking about him and his hair and the little grin he gave me. and I was so caught up in my thoughts about him I forgot to put my glasses on my nightstand.

Monokuma made his morning announcement, as usual, and it jolted me awake. I had slept in again. I fixed my glasses, got up reluctantly put on my outfit, and walked to the cafeteria. Everyone was there talking and chatting as if nothing had happened. Ishimaru did a head count and we all went our separate ways, some leaving with each other and some leaving with only themselves. I stayed in the cafeteria with Ishimaru, Owada, and Naegi. I was having a cup of tea, Naegi was sulking, and the other two were bickering about... something?
"You bitch!" Owada yelled in Ishimaru's face.
"Well excuse me! You're being unreasonable!" Ishimaru objected as he took a step back.
"I am not!"
"Yes, you are!"
"Am not!"
"Are too!"
"Am no-"
"You two are fighting like children. Please shut up." I interrupted.
"You're right, Togami." Ishimaru relaxed his shoulders and sat down at one of the tables.
"Oh hell no. You and I are gonna settle this like men." Owada snapped and got in Ishimaru's face again.
"And what would 'settling it like men' entail? Ishimaru asked.
"Having a competition of course! We'll have a heat resistance competition in the sauna!" Owada said and grinned smugly. At this point, Naegi had sat up fascinated to see where this was going.
"Okay then! Let's do it!" Ishimaru stood up, causing Owada to stumble back. Ishimaru began walking to the saunas the rest of us following him.
We arrived at the saunas and Ishimaru was only wearing a towel and Owada went in fully clothed.
They sat in there together for a while not speaking but eventually they were having a full-blown argument about, who's stronger I think? Naegi and I stood there listening to them argue and they started saying... questionable things. I swear to God they were having sex in there. The thought of them having sex irked me a little. I hated Owada. But why am I so caught up in his personal life? I grunted angrily before leaving Naegi with them. He gave me a look of confusion and then shrugged.
I found myself in my room and I grabbed my book and headed towards the library. I had also made a quick stop in the cafeteria to make myself a cup of tea. When I reached the library I took a seat in the back like I always do. Suddenly, Fukawa entered and she found me quickly.
"M-master T-Togami..." she sputtered.
"What could you possibly want?"
"I h-have a s-s-secret to t-tell you..."
"Go on. Out with it." I said in an uninterested voice.
"T-there's a m-murderous fiend l-living within m-me... and I- I'm scared it's g-going to a-attack at any t-time..."
"Oh?" I said, my interest piqued
"Y-you can't t-tell anyone.."
"I promise I won't." I lied. She nodded in appreciation and left. I followed soon after and as I came upon my room Owada was at his at the same time. He had shed his shirt and he was covered in sweat. His pompadour was down again but it was just messy and damp. I would be lying if I said it wasn't attractive.
"You're staring, Togami," he said and his face was red, I was unsure if it was from me or the sauna.
"Sorry," I said softly and I looked away, "who won?" I asked, referring to him and Ishimaru.
"Oh! Well, we ended up bonding and we're friends now..." he said as he rubbed the back of his neck.
"I'm surprised you can bond with anyone." I jeered light-heartedly, which made him chuckle in return.
"Hey! We're bonding right now, aren't we?"
"I suppose so."
"Well, I'm going to take a shower. Goodnight, Togami."
"Goodnight."
