Childhood Lovers~ | VOLUME ONE | Najimi Osana X Male Reader

Chapter 4: Ramen Daro 🍜

School had just ended and Y/n and Najimi were standing next to Tadano and Komi's desk. Komi suggested that they should go to a Ramen Shop and Tadano and Najimi agreed. Y/n looked slightly concerned and whispered to Najimi "...I've never tried Ramen...". Najimi chuckled and gently rubbed his arm and smiled warmly. "It'll be alright... I'll eat what you don't have, Y/n.

Just then, another girl walked up to the group. She had Green hair and glasses. "Oh, So you're all going to a Ramen Shop?.... then I guess that's my cue isn't it?"

This girl is Himiko Agari, she is one of our classmates. Agari tends to get really nervous around people she doesn't know and is quite the lover of food. Agairi also has some.... Quirks. in middle school, Agari had a Crush on Y/n and wanted to have him treat her like a Dog. Y/n was quite aware of weird things at a young age due to him growing up by himself and knew exactly what she was doing and shut her down by telling her "...nah... that's a weird Fetish..".

Agari had since been a little hesitatant to talk to Y/n, but Agari had a crush on Komi now... which is not surprising so Y/n was fine to have Agari around since he knew that if Komi shut her down, Najimi would protect him.

The group walk to the Ramen Shop which Y/n had seen on a show called 'Devil's Kitchen' or something... The Restaurant was called 'Ramen Daro' and Y/n could not remember if the Angry Blonde Chef on that show liked it or not.

"Ta-da! This is my number one recommendation: Ramen Daro!" Agari said with a smile. Najimi perked up. "Oh! Wait, I heard this place is famous. And its Daro-Style." Najimi said.

Y/n smirked as he was going to do a Funny. "ITS FUCKING RAW!!" Y/n smirked as he imitated the Chef from Devil's Kitchen. Agari scoffed. "Such a common reference, Y/n."

Y/n just cackled at Agari's Comment. "Hey! At least it got you to talk to me again!" Y/n chuckled as Agari smiled a little.

Najimi turned to Komi. "Will you be okay? It's pretty Greasy and they serve Large Portions..."

Komi held up a sign that said 'Let's Go!'. Najimi chuckled a little. "What a quick Answer!"

Y/n was about to yell another Devil's Kitchen reference but was interrupted by Agari. "It says here that this Ramen Shop is known by the Public to serve plentiful portions. Most of the clientele are men who dine alo-" Agari was interrupted by Tadano who asked. "Agari, are you Okay?"

Agari started to get flustered and stutter. "Oh my gosh, I-I'm s-s-so sorry! I tend to go on and on whenever I talk about f-f-f-food..." Najimi, Y/n and Tadano shared the same thought 'what a relief. Agari's back to normal.'

They walk in and Agari orders her food as Najimi started to talk with Excitement. "I've heard all these kinds of Places have their own unique rules. I saw it on TV! Ooh! Maybe Y/n and I will order the same thing as you did, Agari."

Agari put her hand onto Najimi's shoulder and leaned close as she spoke in a quiet yet serious tone. "Guilty.".

Y/n put his hands up like he was on guard because he had flashbacks to Yamai's kidnapping incident. Najimi nervously spoke. "Huh? I'm guilty? Guilty of what?"

Just as Najimi spoke a random announcer appeared out of the corner and started to speak like it was a sports announcement. "RAMEN DARO'S COMMANDMENT #1: DO NOT SPEAK!"

Agari sat down as Komi orders without trouble and Najimi and Y/n are dumbfounded at the sudden announcement. "RAMEN DARO'S COMMANDMENT #2: QUICKLY BUY YOUR TICKET AND IMMEDIATELY GET TO YOUR SEAT!!"

Y/n laughed a little as he watched Tadano get hurried by some people in the line behind him. "RAMEN DARO'S COMMANDMENT #3: RESPECT THE OWNER AND MEDITATE WHILE WAITING!!"

A light turned on above Agari as she was doing the classic Meditation pose and Y/n laughed a little while Najimi was still shocked. Y/n saw the serious looking owner slip the Sleezy looking Sports Announcer a crisp ¥500.

As they sat down Tadano Whispered to Y/n. "Wow, this Ramen Shop owner sure is a control freak." Y/n chuckled at Tadano's remark before Whispering back. "Yeah... he's even got the sunglasses and towl around his neck too.."

The Ramen Man turned to face the Group and his voice was so quiet Y/n could barely hear. "Toppings?"

Agari put her finger up as she spoke very quickly and the words sorta mixed together."Veggies, garlic, lots of lard and soy sauce." Najimi, Y/n and Tadano once again shared the same thought as they turned to Agari. 'Was that a spell?'

After the owner seemed to telepathically understand what Komi's order was, their food arrived. The food was very large. "...holy fuck.." Y/n muttered as Najimi giggled at the cursing.

They all dug in to their food and they seemed to enjoy it. Y/n found our he was a fan of it. After Komi finished her meal, she hurried out because of her 'Extreme Social Anxiety'. "RAMEN DARO'S COMMANDMENT #4: WHEN FINISHED, PUT UP YOUR BOWL AND IMMEDIATELY VACATE YOUR SEAT!!!" Y/n jumped at the sudden reappearance of the Announcer.

After they finished eating they left the shop and stood outside. Najimi and Tadano were extremely full and Y/n smiled. "You lot had the least! Agari is used to the servings so she's alright, But Komi and I both finished and this is our first Time!" Y/n said as he chuckled.

Agari put her hands together and smiled widely. "Oh, that was delicious, wasn't it?" Najimi replied with "Yeah. But I am way too full."

Tadano looked like he was going to throw up from eating too much. Komi held up a sign that read 'Let's go again sometime, okay?'. They all smiled and Agari was excited. Najimi and Tadano then groaned in unison. "Actually, I think I'm good."

A couple minutes later after Najimi and Tadano recovered, they all started to walk home in separated groups. Y/n grabbed Agari's hand so he could get her attention and talk to her. "Agari... I don't hold any bad feelings towards you from the stuff in middle school... I'm still your friend, Alright?"

Agari smiled at Y/n and nodded. "Thanks Y/n! It means a lot!"

~Something Extra Before the End.~

The next day after school, Y/n walked out and was about to leave school when he noticed Najimi at the umbrella stand writing a not with a cute smile on their face. Y/n then shifts his attention to the rain outside and groaned. "The one day I forget my Fucking umbrella!" Y/n said as Najimi ran up and hugged him. "I was waiting for you to come out so we can walk home together, Y/n-Kun!" Najimi said happily. Y/n smiled and then looked at the umbrella she was holding. "...your stealing Tadano's Umbrella..."

Najimi smirked as she nodded her head with a cute blush. "..I wanted to share an umbrella with my Boyfriend Y/n~" Najimi teased as she kisses his cheek. Y/n chuckled as he read the note Najimi wrote to Tadano. 'Tadano, Your Umbrella is now Mine! -Phantom Theif N.'

"....your such a dork~" Y/n teased as he held Najimi's hand and they both walked out into the rain under What was now Najimi's Umbrella.

Najimi intertwined her fingers with Y/n's and smiled. "....I'm your dork~".
