The next morning Law woke up much earlier than he wanted due to Bepo jumping on his bed and nearly suffocating him in his sleep. Bepo looked sadly at the black-haired man as he got yelled at, however Law couldn't stay mad long.

Law, no longer able to sleep decided to get breakfast. As he turned the corner into the kitchen, he saw the blond man trip over seemingly nothing. After standing back up he noticed his son in the kitchen.

"Hey, Law, good morning. Didn't notice you standing there", he said laughing off his fall.

"Morning" Law responded while walking over to the fridge.

There was an awkward silence in the air for a moment before Cora spoke up, "So Law. You got home later than I expected last night what were you doing?"

Law froze for a moment, Cora was always nosy, but this was something he didn't know how to explain. As the older man saw how Law froze, he couldn't help but smile a bit, "So Law what were you doing? It's not like you to not at least tell me where you're going".

"I didn't do anything illegal if that's what you're implying" Law stated coolly.

"What! No! I'm asking if you went out with that girl you like and refuse to tell me her name" he said throwing his arms about in frustration.

"Maybe" Law responded focusing on the coffee machine to avoid eye contact.

"HA! I knew it! Tell me her name" he exclaimed.

"No, I'm not telling you anything" Law responded, keeping his focus on the coffee machine.

"Fineeeee", Cora sighed before coming up with another question, "Did things at least go well?".

"I think so-" As Law was about to finish his sentence there was a knock on the door.

Both men were confused, and nobody was expected. They both walked over to the door, careful, of making too much noise before a voice was heard.

"Law, I know you're in there! you can't keep us away forever!". Both men let out a sigh of relief as they realized it was just Sachi and likely penguin with him.

Law opened the door for them, and without hesitation they barged into the house with no consideration for the door. Or the poor man behind it, it was slammed into poor Cora's face. He didn't deserve it. But neither of the intruders noticed, they were too busy harassing Law.

"Why haven't you been able to hang out lately man?"

"Are you trying to avoid us?"

"Are you mad at us"

"Ever since the party you haven't talked to us as much"

"Yeah, and you left us there to try and find rides!"

"If anything, we should be mad at you!"

"Alright, alright I hear you guys just calm down and let me speak" Law interrupted their taking turns speaking at him.

"I'm not mad or trying to avoid you guys, I've been busy with football and I'm tutoring someone, so I can't hang out in the afterschool time" Law continued after ensuring their silence.

They both looked at each other and then at Law before saying in unison, "You? Tutoring someone, are they that desperate?".

"What is that supposed to mean?" Law questioned slightly offended by their words.

Penguin started the response, "Well, you're very smart Law. Nobody can deny that but-"

He was cut off by Sachi who put it more bluntly, "You're mean when you tutor people. Also, how out of everyone were you chosen to be a tutor and to who"

Penguin sighed at his friend's bluntness.

"Well first of all rude, second I volunteered to do it and third you don't need to know who" Law responded.

"You volunteering to do something nice for someone you don't care about? That doesn't make sense Law" Sachi stated questioning the man further.

"Fine I'm interested in the person and that's why I did it. But is it so hard to believe that I did it out of kindness?" He asked them.

Once again in sync they responded, "yes".

"But who are you so interested in?" Penguin asked fully invested in is friends' life.

"Does it matter?" Law asked trying to avoid the question.

After interrogating Law for nearly 30 minutes trying to figure out who he was talking about. Meanwhile Cora was trying to stay unnoticed in the back listening into what his son was going to say. In the whole of the interrogation however, Sachi tackled Law in an attempt to get him to respond. They were still on the floor wrestling Bepo circling them trying to join in.

"Alright fine! I'll tell just get off me!" Law yelled while trying to push Sachi off of him.

Sachi got off of him quickly excited to hear the boiling hot tea.

"I'm tutoring a girl who I might be interested in" He responded

"Who is it?" Penguin asked while Sachi was getting ready to tackle Law once again.

"Do not tackle me again Sachi I swear to god!" He paused for a moment before muttering a name under his breathe.

This however pissed Sachi off, he once again tackled Law pinning him to the ground as he struggled against him.

"What the hell! I told you what you wanted!" He said while trying to wiggle out from under Sachi.

"Say it louder so we can actually hear you. Then I'll get off you." Sachi responded.

"Fine, fine it's (y/n). Get off me!"

Sachi got off him looking at him in disbelief. Silence fell on the four men as shock and confusion was felt throughout the whole room.

"Wait, like (Y/n), (y/n)? The hot one?" Penguin finally spoke up.

"There's only one (y/n) in the school dumbass so yes the hot (y/n)" Sachi interjected before questioning, "It's the hot one, right?"

"It's the one that plays volleyball" Law finally responded standing up from the floor.

"Yeah, so the hot one" Penguin added.

"Sure, whatever you want to say" Law gave up on trying to get them away from the topic as quickly as possible.

"Wait so do you like, like her like her?" Sachi questioned his friend.

"I don't know" Law said

"Well, you have to have some interest in her otherwise you wouldn't have gone out with her last night" Cora finally interjected in the conversation.

Both of the friends' jaws dropped, "You went out with a girl last night and didn't tell us?!"

"I don't need to tell you guys anything" Law responded.

"We're hurt Law. This is something to gossip about" Penguin said.

Law sighed in response to their stupidity.

"But in all seriousness Law, you spending time with someone who you aren't obligated to is rare. You clearly have some form of feelings for her" Pegiun stated.

At this Laws eyes widened.

'Did he have some feelings for (y/n)? Sure, he didn't talk to many people unless he had to'

'But did he really have feelings for (y/n)?"
