No one's POV

Y/n was in science. She hated it so much but today, she didn't mind it. Mainly because in that lesson they were only doing practical work. Although she had to sit next to Tenma, she didn't really mind it anymore. They were going to meet after school, meaning after soccer practice. They both looked at each other every now and then. Y/n was too busy daydreaming while her teacher was talking. Tenma was actually focused for once. He was looking at the teacher and taking down notes in his notebook.

"Okay, so now we have a weak acid and a weak alkali, what happens when we put them together?" Tanaka-sensei asked, holding up two test tubes. "Would anyone like to answer?"

".."

"No one? Okay, I guess I'll have to pick on one of you." Tanaka-sensei looked around and saw that Y/n wasn't paying any attention.

"L/n-san, what happens when we mix a weak acid with a weak alkali?" Y/n snapped out of her daze and looked at her teacher.

"W-well.. uh.." Y/n murmured. She looked around the classroom and then her eyes landed on Tenma. He held up a small paper which had the answer.

"It.. becomes.. neutral?" Y/n stated, sort of struggling to read Tenma's messy handwriting.

"Correct!" Sensei said. He mixed the two substances together to get a neutral pH.

Y/n looked at Tenma, who gave her two thumbs up. She mouthed 'thank you' to him and all he did was smile.

The lesson was finally over and everyone rushed out of the classroom. Y/n was walking out of class with Hikaru, who was struggling to close his bag.

"Y/n it's not closing properly!!" Hikaru whined. He passed the bag to the h/c girl, in hope of her fixing it.

"Just do this." She quickly zipped it and handed it to him. "See, simple." Hikaru's eyes widened.

"Thank you Y/n! Hurry up, let head over to the soccer field! We have practice!" He grabbed Y/n's hand and began to run.

Once they had arrived, Y/n sat in the bench beside Midori and Hikaru went to the changing rooms.

"Ah, Y/n! You're here, let me tell you what happened today." Midori turned to face the girl sitting beside her.

"Sure."

"Oh, by the way, Akane and Aoi are getting the water bottles, that's why they aren't here yet." Y/n nodded.

"Anyways, you know Nishiki?"

"Of course I know him, he's on the soccer team!"

"Oh yeah, anyways that dumbass swapped my bag out with someone else's!" Midori threw the bag to Y/n. Y/n opened it and saw it was just filled with fake bugs and notebooks.

"This looks like the inside of Kariya's bag." Y/n said, taking out the fake bugs. "Want to scatter them around the field? There's also a fake snake so.."

"That sounds smart! I'm in!" The two girls got up and took a handful of the fake bugs (and snakes) and scattered them around the field. They decided not the put to many on the field otherwise that would make it too obviously that they're fake. Midori had finished before Y/n and she sat down on the bench, waiting for the boys to come onto the field.

"And one last snake.." Y/n muttered, placing it on the side that Kariya usually plays in.

"Y/n! Quick! They're coming." Midori yelled. Y/n quickly ran over to the bench and they both began talking about random things.

Y/n looked around for Kariya, she wanted to see his reaction. Kariya was walking onto the field and got into his position. That's when he had seen it.

"AHSIAHSIA" Kariya shrieked, running over to Kirino. "TAKE IT AWAY!" He whined, gripping onto Kirino's shoulders.

"It's just a snake!" Kirino said, trying to walk away from Kariya.

"You're a snake!" Kariya cried.

Midori and Y/n couldn't help but laugh at the situation. Y/n was laughing so hard, she ended up falling off the bench. This caused her to laugh even more.

"Is Y/n okay..?" Shindou muttered. He acted as if he hadn't seen anything and looked away.

"Y/n!" Aoi said, holding a box. She dropped the box and ran over to Y/n, Akane following behind her. "Why are you laughing so much..?" She asked, tilting her head to the side.

"K-kar.. kariya.." she panted, pointing over to where Kariya was. Aoi and Akane looked over and saw Kariya screaming.

"We put fake bugs and snakes around the field and he found the snake!" Midori laughed. Aoi sighed and sat down on the bench beside Midori. Y/n was still on the floor, gasping for air since she was laughing to much. A Kane was just taking pictures of the whole scene. After everyone calmed down, the team continued to practice while the girls talked about important things.

"Yeah! I'm being serious!" Aoi said. We all facepalmed.

"It's not possible for Akane to start flying just because she was a fairy when we time traveled to King Arthur's story!" Y/n groaned.

"But-"

"No Aoi! It isn't possible." Midori cut her off. The managers heard footsteps coming towards them and they realised practice was over. They all got up to hand out towels and bottles.

"Good job!" Y/n smiled at Tsurugi who only had a bored look. She handed him a towel.

"Does you ever smile?" She asked, tilting her head to the side.

"I'll let you figure that out." Tsurugi replied, throwing the towel over his shoulder.

Y/n rolled her eyes and continued to give out the towels.

"Hey Y/n!" A voice said cheerfully. It was Tenma, he was sweating a lot.

"Here you go." Y/n handed his a towel. As Tenma took the towel, their hands slightly touched. This caused the two to blush.

"Remember, after school." Tenma winked at her and walked away. Y/n couldn't help but smile at the brunette.

Tenma and Tsurugi had to collect all the soccer balls and Y/n and to collect all the fake bugs and snakes.

"Why did I even do this again?" Y/n muttered to herself, grabbing a fake snake.

"It's your fault for doing it, Y/n" Tsurugi suddenly said, crouching down beside her.

"Oh, shut up!" Y/n rolled her eyes. Tsurugi frowned. "Don't try to act upset I know you're faking it."

"Guess you caught me, I'll see you tomorrow then, Y/n. Looks like it's just going to be you here." Tsurugi got up and walked away.

"Just me..? Isn't Tenma here?" Y/n asked.

"He finished a long time ago, I thought it would be a good idea to help you but I can't be asked anymore." He replied, waving his hand at the girl. He continued to walk away until he was no where to be seen.

Y/n clicked her tongue and continued to pick up the fake bugs.

"I guess it is my fault.. but it's fine, Kariya's face was priceless!" Y/n laughed.
