for the next three months, everything seemed to have settled back in place. although things between tengen and you seemed a little better, there were still awkward moments. as for gyutaro , you had regularly seen him around. each time was always very nerve-wrecking experience. sometimes, he would attempt to talk to you, but you always tried to avoid those conversations to the best of your ability.
"[y/n], let's go." zenitsu called. he was standing next to you peering down on your desk. you shook your head violently before chuckling. "i've been out of it lately." you sigh. zenitsu stares blankly at you. you quickly take in a breath before packing up your things. "[y/l/n], a word please?" tengen requested. his arms were folded over his chest as he asked. you look back at zenitsu who was waiting for your response.
"yeah, uhm of course." you nod. zenitsu sighs as he begins to walk out. "i'll be there in a moment z. don't worry!" you assure him. he sends a small smile your way as he leaves the room. you walk over to tengen and wait for him to talk. he looked around the room before smiling.
"imm glad to see you doing well my love." a smile crept on your lips at his words. you quickly looked away before looking back up at him. "i missed you a lot, tengen." you sigh. "i missed you too." he stated, "which is why i had a question for you." you raise your eyebrows in curiosity. "which is..?" you question. "would you like to dress up and go out with me tonight?" he sheepishly rubbed the back of his neck.
you think back to the first time he asked you to dress up for him. you both ended up going roller skating then playing tag in an empty parking lot. "of course i'll go." you smiled. tengens' face lit up a bit. he stepped forward, wrapping his arms around your waist. you wrapped your arms around his neck before pulling him down towards you.
your lips connected making a simple, sweet kiss. this was a feeling you were longing for. tengen pulled away from you, eyes full of passion. your breathing became heavier the hungrier you grew. "i'll see you tonight beautiful, seven-o'clock." he taunted.
"seven o'clock." you called back. you giddily scurried out of the room. zenitsu stood down the hall scrolling on his phone. "is everything okay?" he questioned. "seven o'clock." you smiled.
his eyebrows furrowed but he didn't question further. you both chatted as you walked down corridor to your next location. the smile on your face wouldn't fade away. there was only one thing you could think about now.
seven o'clock.
