Drinking Under The Yellow Moon (Himeno x Male Reader)

Under The White Light

[3rd Person POV]

Today is an unusual day for (Y/N), throughout the entire day, he didn't encounter a devil.

It was a peaceful today for him, he just misses the action.

As (Y/N) is walking around in Tokyo, he is walking beside a woman. The woman is a petite young woman with short brown hair, her name is Kobeni Higashiyama.

"Hey, (Y/N), are you gonna join us later?" Kobeni asks him.

"To drink?"

Kobeni nodded. Himeno told Kobeni to convince him to join them after (Y/N) said to both Aki and Himeno that he is not sure.

"Come on, just go with them already. It'll be a great time for you to experience your first time drinking."

(Y/N) thinks for a brief moment and then said. "Fine, I'll go."

Later, at a restaurant. There are five people at a table filled with food and beer.

The people there are (Y/N), Himeno, Aki, Arai, and Kobeni.

Out of all the people at the table, (Y/N) is the only one nervous about being there.

Why? It's because he is afraid that if he gets drunk, he might say something stupid and confess to Himeno and completely embarrass himself in front of anyone.

The worst part for him is that he is seated right next to Himeno, it felt like he is fighting for his life.

Himeno tilts her head as she is curious. "Are you alright?"

"Y-Yeah." (Y/N) said with a stutter while looking away from Himeno.

Himeno started to pout. "Why is he so cold to me?!" She thought to herself as she is getting a little angry at him.

All of them started drinking, and (Y/N) is getting a little bit tipsy.

"Hey, guys, I have a joke."

"Oh god, not another joke from you..." Aki said to (Y/N) before taking another sip from his beer.

"What do you call a magic owl? Hoodini! Hehehe...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA....EeehhHAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

(Y/N) is laughing really loudly at his joke, it was very loud at the restaurant because of him. Everyone at the same table as him is getting embarrassed except for one.

It's Himeno, she is actually right now because she sees (Y/N) is being himself. Ever since he learned the truth from Aki, he has been distancing himself from his comrades because he was overthinking.

Now there is just one problem, he is very chatty to anyone except for Himeno. He didn't look at Himeno at all, it felt like he is treating her like she doesn't exist.

(Y/N) then chugs his beer, it is now empty. This causes concern for the Lightning Devil.

"You're drinking too much, do you want to get taken advantage of or what?"

"That's the thing, I want HER to take advantage of me." (Y/N) thought to himself. He then asks everyone at the table. "Since this is a welcoming party, we should get to know each other! Kobeni, tell us why you join the Public Safety?"

"I don't want to talk about it..." Kobeni looks as if she is starting to get depressed as her head is down.

"So, (Y/N), why did you join the Public Safety Devil Hunters?" Aki asks him.

(Y/N) puts down his beer on the table. "Actually, I wasn't really supposed to join. I planned on joining after I finish college."

"What caused you to change your mind?"
