Do y'all remember the ALS ice bucket challenge
__________________________________

With free time on your hands, you walked along the hallways, trying to find where Kenma might be hiding.

'I really should've gotten an updated map...'

The winding hallways confused you more and more until you weren't even able to figure out where you came from, a sense of distress starting to creep up your spine.

Then, while trying to find anything familiar, you tripped on your own shoe.

But instead of unwillingly kissing the floor, you found yourself in the arms of a volleyball player.

"Huh, guess I'm really FALLING for you, eh?"

He helped you stand up straight, all the while quietly snickering to himself.

"I'm glad that joke didn't FALL flat!"

You liked the fact that he enjoyed your corny jokes, something that SOME PEOPLE typically frown at.

"Fukunaga right? Do you have any ideas on where Kenma is?"

He put a finger to his chin, trying to think of any spots he could be, but there were too many options.

He gave you a silent shrug, and you sighed before coming up with an idea.

"Hey, how about you help me look? I don't think I know the school enough to navigate, so it'd be nice if I had someone to guide me! If that's okay with you, of course,"

Your two lame jokes were enough for him to trust you, and he nodded with a smile.

"Great!"

You locked arms with him,
"You don't really seem like a talker, so it might be good for me to stay attached to you,"

He was satisfied with your reasoning, and started leading you throughout the school.

Quiet laughter could be heard coming from your guide, and you furrowed your brow.

"What's so funny?"

He seemed shocked that you could tell he was laughing to himself, and immediately stopped, trying to pretend it never happened.

"No it's alright! You can tell me!"

He looked back at you, almost as if he was debating with himself whether or not he should actually tell you, and then looked away, deciding to keep the joke to himself.

You whined,
"Aww c'mon, I won't tell anyone else!"

After a bit more pouting and whining, he relented, quickly whispering the joke into your ear.

You held a hand up to your mouth to hide your snickering, a fruitless endeavor.

"That was a funny joke! I'm glad you told me,"

For some reason at that moment, he felt like his view of you had changed. The sound of your laughter, laughter that he had caused, was a sound he quickly became addicted to.

On your search for Kenma, he continuously told you any jokes that appeared in his head, just to hear you laugh again.

A part of him felt embarrassed, why was he acting like this? Why did he want you to laugh at all of his jokes so badly?

He shook himself from his thoughts as you approached a potential Kenma-site.

You detached yourself from him, slowly opening the door as if you'd scare someone away if they were in there.

The quiet sounds of buttons being methodically pressed could be heard by the both of you, confirming your suspicions.

You sat down next to the boy,
"Man, I was looking all over for you!"
