Miya's POV 

Joe went on a rant about Nishimura and how he shouldn't have talked to me like that and how if he talked to Y/n like he talked to me, Joe would knock his lights out. I doubt that would ever happen because I know for a fact Nishimura would never talk to Y/n like that. 

After hanging out with Joe, I made my way home. My parents were upstairs, sleeping and I basically had the house to myself. I was sitting on my couch watching TV when I heard someone knock the door. I got up and answered it. When I opened I saw Y/n standing there teary eyed. 

"Y/n?" I said.

She didn't say a single word to me, instead, she wrapped her arms around me and cried in my chest. I was so confused, I've seen Y/n get teary eyed once but this was the first time I saw her sobbing. 

"What happened?" I asked her. "I don't wanna talk about it right now" she said in between sobs.

I felt her knees start to bend and we both ended up sitting on the ground. Our legs tangled between each other, my hand resting on the back of her head and her head buried in my chest. We stayed like that for a while, Y/n just cried her heart out. Once I heard her hyperventilating, I started to get nervous.

"Y/n, breathe" I made her look at me. 

Tears were still rolling down her cheeks like water flowing down a stream. I wiped them away and looked her in the eyes. 

"Listen to me, whatever's going on, we'll fix it. I promise I'll be there for you, I just need you to stop crying cause it's hurting me now and it'd be pretty awkward to start crying right now" I said to Y/n. 

A small smile formed on her face and then she laid down on my chest again. Her breathing started to slow down again. Her anxiety really was nerve-wracking.

"Sōma broke up with me" Y/n said. 

A part of my heart broke when she said that. I knew how much she loved him. 

"I'll make you something and we can talk about it if you wanna" I got up. 

I went to my kitchen and warmed up some milk, I then put it in a mug and added some honey and cinnamon. I also added some vanilla extract to it for a little more sweetness. 

"Here you go" I handed Y/n the mug. 

We were now sitting on the couch and she was sipping on the milk. 

"I think I wanna talk about it now" Y/n said. "Did you end things or did he end it?" I asked. "I ended it" Y/n said. "May I ask why?" I asked. "Well there was this argument about something...stupid and Sōma just blew things out of proportion and now I'm here" Y/n explained. "What was the argument about?" I asked, already having an idea. 

Y/n hesitated for a second then she gave in. 

"It was about you...he said that we were too close but I explained that we were just friends and that I barely hang out with you because of him" she explained. 

'Just friends' kinda hurt but I ignored my pain for now. 

"Was that it?" I asked. "I wish that was the only thing he said" Y/n replied. "What else did he say" I started getting nervous. "He said something about my dad" Y/n said. 

I was speechless. I knew Y/n's father was never present in her life, but I never brought it up because I didn't know how'd it make her feel and yet Nishimura crossed the line when I knew Y/n probably set boundaries. 

"I'm sorry Y/n" I said to her. "No, don't be sorry for me, I was the one who made this mistake. It's my fault" Y/n said to me. "Don't say that, it wasn't a mistake Y/n. You actually loved him and I'm pretty sure he loved you too, but he messed up. He doesn't deserve a second chance now but you probably learned a lot from that relationship" I explained to her. 

Y/n looked at me and then gave me a hug. 

"Thank you Miya, I really appreciate everything you do for me" Y/n said. "Don't thank me, it's what friends do" I said to her. "No, you let me in even though it's almost ten" Y/n said. "Well I'll always be there for you. Even if it's two am I'll gladly open the door for you and make you honey milk" I said. "You're the sweetest boy I know" Y/n said to me. 

I didn't reply to her. That was such a sweet compliment. I just stayed there and held her in my arms for a few moments. 

"Wanna watch Spirited Away?" I asked Y/n. 

I remembered that it was her all-time favorite movie. Y/n looked up at me teary eyed. 

"You're so sweet, you remembered my favorite movie?" her voice was breaking. "How could I forget?" I asked her. "I would love to watch Spirited Away" Y/n said to me. 

I popped some popcorn and then I put on the movie. Y/n rested her head on my shoulder and we watched the movie together. The opening scene was Chihiro and her family driving to their new home. The music was so relaxing and it was just a nice feeling. It was warm, the feeling. Having Y/n right next to me, cuddled up while watching the movie and smelling the cinnamon from the milk was a warm feeling. Although Y/n was sad, this felt nice. 

When Haku appeared on the screen, Y/n was so mesmerized. I could take a wild guess who her favorite character was. From what her mom told me, she had always loved Haku even when she was little. It was cute to see that she still loved Haku after all these years. It was one of those things that doesn't change no matter how much time goes by. 

"Wanna go to a party tomorrow night?" I asked Y/n. "Sure" she replied before continuing to watch the movie.
