Miyano was sitting on his bed reading manga all night until he heard his alarm go off. "It's already morning?" Miyano was shocked that he read manga all night for the 30th time. He sighs and sluggishly gets out of bed and puts his manga back on its shelf. "Why did I think this was a good idea?" Miyano thought as he yawned. He then quickly got ready and shoved a pin in his hair. He then walked to his kitchen where his mom was cooking breakfast. "Goodmorning mom." Miyano said tiredly rubbing his eyes. "Good morning son. Stay up all night reading manga?" She asked, looking at a tired Miyano. "Yeah....." Miyano trailed off. "You know that isn't healthy Yoshi-kun right?" she said. "Sorry mom." Miyano said after a moment of silence. "It's okay just make sure not to do it next time, you wouldn't want to come off as someone who's always tried to that Sasaki boy right?" his mother said in a teasing tone. "I guess not." Miyano mumbled.

After Miyano ate breakfast, he headed to the subway station. "Hey Miya 'Chan!" Sasaki said as he went up to Miyano who was sitting on the bench waiting for the train. Sasaki sat beside him and dropped his bag to the floor next to the bench. Sasaki noticed the pin in Miya's hair and decided to make a "joke" "your bangs are so cute!" Sasaki said. "What! Miyano exclaimed, blushing. He then calmed down before saying. "I stayed up reading Bl last night so i got no sleep.'' "ohhhhhhh. Can I kiss your forehead? '' Sasaki jokes. "Huh?" Miyano said after a moment, stunned by what Sasaki said. "Just kiddin'." Sasaki said after a moment before giving out a small chuckle.

"You can't just say those things!" Miyano stuttered out before they heard the sound of the subway train entering the station. "Looks like the train is here!" Sasaki exclaimed, grabbing his bag from his side and standing up to head to the train. Miyano follows Sasaki to the train where they both enter it together. Miyano and Sasaki sat down next to each other with an awkward tension in the air. 'Why did he say that?" Miyano questioned to himself feeling the heat rise to his cheeks

Meanwhile Sasaki sat there thinking he already fucked up the friendship. "Why did i say that it's only the second day I've known him and i already messed up." Sasaki thought sadly with a sigh. Miyano noticed that Sasaki looked gloomy and decided to cheer him up as he remembered he had a lollipop from one of his classes yesterday. "Sasaki San here." Miyano said as he gave the lollipop to Sasaki. "For me?" Sasaki asked. Miyano noticed Sasaki's face light up as he said that. "Mhm." Miyano hummed, agreeing to his question. "Thank you." Sasaki said in a sincere voice before plopping the lollipop in his mouth.

The train came to a halt at their destination. They exited the train. 'Did you read the manga I gave you yesterday?' Miyano asked. Yup!" Sasaki exclaimed. He then pulled out the manga and passed it to Miyano who had an excited gleam in his eyes which Sasaki fawned over internally. After Miyano slipped the manga in his bag, he talked about the manga excitedly to Sasaki for the rest of the walk to school. They reached the campus and headed to their first class with Mrs Mariko.

After they were finished with their classes, they walked home together but they noticed there was a manga store on their way home. "Wanna go and look at some manga?" Sasaki asked while looking up at the manga store then back to Miyano. "Do you know how embarrassing it is to stand in the BL section with another guy! People will gossip about you for the rest of your life!" Miyano exclaimed. "What if I stand in a completely different section?" Sasaki responded. "T-that could work." Miyano stuttered after a moment. They then head into the bookstore."soooo are you nervous?" Miyano asked. "No, why would I be?" Sasaki responded

As Sasaki promised he stood in a different section but when he saw Miya he gave a friendly smile that Miya felt his cheeks heat up at. "So cute." Sasaki thought as he saw Miya look at a book that made his eyes light up. After Sasaki and Miyano were finished with purchasing the manga (Miyano buying a manga) We headed to the train station to head home. "Here's another manga for you to read if you want." Miyano said, passing another manga from his bag to Sasaki. "Ooh it looks cool." Sasaki said sounding excited as he grabbed the manga and put it in his bag

The train rolled into the station and they both left in their directions as Sasaki went to his job for the rest of the afternoon until... "wait Sasaki~san you work as a cashier?" he heard from a soothing voice as he looked up to see Miya~chan. "Yeah, it's only a part time job till i get my degree. And hiiii fancy seeing you here.  "Sasaki said as he started scanning Miyano's items.

"Why do you need ponytail holders Miya~chan?" Sasaki asked, face darkening. 'Had he got a girlfriend?' Sasaki thought to himself then he realized. "Thats stupid i shouldn't care if Miya~chan is in a relationship."

Sasaki's thoughts were cut off with a response from Miyano." oh yeah, my mom needed some more since her other ones are old." Miyano said. Sasaki felt relieved and he didn't know why. "Ohhhhhhhh okay." Sasaki said, ringing up the rest of his items. After Miyano left it was 10 minutes till his shift ended after 10 mins were up, Sasaki left for his and his sisters apartment entering the door he helped his sister make dinner. After they ate, Sasaki showered and collapsed on his bed, tired of today's events. His mind traveled to what happened earlier.

"Why was I relieved that Miya~chan didn't have a girlfriend?" Sasaki thought confused. Needless today Sasaki drifted off to sheep confused and exhausted, forgetting about the manga Miyano lent him earlier when they headed home.
