"kyo-chan.." i look at kyotani while we walk through the hallways.

he groans, "what."

"i like your hair! i've always wanted to go blonde.." i run my fingers through a few strands of my hair.

kyotani questionably side eyes me. "..thanks." he mutters with a sigh.

we arrive to our classroom, kyotani sliding the door open and standing in the doorway.

"ah, kentaro! you're on time for once~" our teacher teases with a light chuckle. he stands there for a couple seconds before walking in, making our teacher come into my vision. "oh, katsumi as well!"

i give her a small smile before bowing, making my way to my desk afterwards.

i don't see sukurai yet, though. hm.

kyotani places my bag on my desk. i look to him with a smile. "thanks, kyo-chan!" i quietly thank him before he turns away and looks out the window.

"bro, you're gonna be late!" i hear yuri's familiar voice laugh as the door flings open.

"kurai-chan~" i mouth, waving to sukurai.

"katsumi!" sukurai and yuri exclaim in unison, yuri popping up behind sukurai.

"yuri!" i quietly exclaim, waving to yuri as well.

"kusumai-san, this isn't your class." our teacher says to yuri.

"my bad, sensei! just taking care of this trouble maker here." yuri aggressively rubs sukurai's head, making his hair stick up. i giggle as sukurai slaps yuri's hand and tells him to go away, sighing and coming over to his seat.

~~~

in the middle of class while i'm writing down notes, sukurai leans over to me. "hey, katsumi?"

i tilt my head to him, my eyes still on my paper. "yeah?"

"wanna sit with me and yuri at lunch?"

my ears perk up and i look to sukurai. "sure!"

sukurai smiles and continues working on his paper.

class goes on as normal, until the bell for lunch rings. kyotani gets up from his seat and stands in front of my desk while i'm packing my things, causing me to look up at him.

"i'm gonna go to lunch with sukurai today, could you let tooru-senpai know?" i smile. kyotani looks at sukurai briefly, then proceeds to the door.

"you know him?" sukurai questions as i get up from my seat.

"yeah, he's on the volleyball team! i think we're friends..? or, getting to that stage.."

"he's so intimidating, i give you props." sukurai slings his bag over his shoulder. i shrug while holding my bag by the strap.

"after you." sukurai gestures for me to walk in front of him. i nod and head over to the door of the classroom after everyone else leaves.

"boo!" someone frightens me as i walk out of the classroom.

"what the—" i practically jump backwards into sukurai, dropping my bag onto my shoes.

"holy shit. i'm so sorry, katsumi!" yuri picks up my bag.

"you're so stupid!" sukurai slaps yuri on the back of his head.

"i thought you were coming out first!"

"it's fine..! i wasn't expecting it though.." i say as i grab my bag back from yuri.

"let's get downstairs, i'm starving." yuri sighs. sukurai and i nod, the three of us head down to the cafeteria.
