Closeted Straight - KNY High School AU

~ Chapter 6 ~

„You look pretty cheerful today." Douma said, landing next to Y/N.

„I was, until you occupied the seat I was saving for someone..." Was Y/N's thought, but she only shrugged.

It was Monday and Y/N noticed that she did not mind it at all.

„Are you coming to watch today's game?"

„No, thanks. Sport teams are not my thing."

„But it will be so fun! Akaza is playing too. I am going to cheer him. Maybe he will become my friend after that... Sanemi and Tengen will be there too. You are friends with Tengen, are not you?"

„Yeah, no. One car ride does not make us best buddies. Well, he paid for my clothes, but it was because his girlfriend sprayed ink all over me like a squid." Y/N was determined to spend free time in the library, as usual.

When time came, she stepped in the library. This time, Enmu easily noticed her, as if he was waiting for someone. He smiled brightly, waving a bit before continuing to read the book.

Y/N sat down next to him, trying to ignore fluttering feeling in her stomach, his closeness always caused her.

Jigoro grumpily observed them, least thing he needed was turning his library into a dating spot. Well, as long as they were not making out behind the shelves, it was all fine.

More students entered, taking free seats and placing their books on the wooden tables. Y/N did not pay too much attention to them, or she would be surprised how many people decided to miss watching school's important game. There were Nakime, Obanai and Giyu, as well as some students Y/N did not know well. Giyu glared at Enmu as he entered. Weird. He should have sympathized with another friendless student, no? Y/N shrugged it off. The last student to enter, did not bother to close door behind her, giving soft, yet cold breeze an opportunity to fill the room. Y/N shivered, trying her best to avoid sneezing. She blinked as she felt something warm wrap around her shoulders.

„You are going to freeze." She commented, blushing and glancing at Enmu, who was now only wearing a shirt. His coat rested on Y/N's back and shoulders, filling her with comfortable warmth and fluttering emotions.

„I will be fine." Enmu shook his head before sneezing.

„Sure." Y/N rolled her eyes, hesitantly inching closer to him and adjusting his coat so it could cover both of them.

He blushed, staying still and quiet as they continued to read their books.

And those were the last moments of happiness they shared.

Two hours later

After the game ended, hallway became crowded. Y/N barely walked her way through it, when someone bumped into her, making her drop her bag. Unfortunately it was unzipped, so bunch of stuff fell out, scattering on the floor.

Well, damn. Good thing she had ten minutes to collect everything before the lesson would begin.

„Sorry." It was her classmate and part time school guard, Hotaru. He looked kind of like hippie, but luckily for him, did not smell like one. Hotaru quickly kneeled down on the floor next to Y/N, helping her gather stuff.

„It is alright." Y/N mumbled, patiently collecting her belongings. Some of her pens rolled close to Daki and Mukago. Y/N could not help but eavesdrop them while picking things, wondering what popular bitch had to talk about with the shy and quiet girl like Mukago. She was probably busy bullying her. In that case it was Y/N's duty to cut her crap...
