Captivated || Yandere! Tsukishima Kei x Female Reader

Sixteen

The teens didn't talk much during the train ride to the city. Occasionally though, Tsukishima would strike up conversations about things, such as asking how often Yachi and her went to this particular café, and how she would rate the items being served there. She would keep her answers short and conscise, as she wanted nothing more than to shut her eyes and take a short nap to lessen the feeling of fatigue at least.

She noted how the blond was being more talkative than usual. He even seemed excited, like a little kid being brought to an amusement park for the very first time. It was brushed off by (Y/N) though. She didn't really have the time nor energy to think much about the change in his character. Regardless, it was strange.

The female did manage to get a wink of sleep when Tsukishima had stopped talking and even unknowingly allowed herself to lean against him, using his side as a pillow before sleep completely took hold of her. The physical contact surprised him at first, but he relaxed with a blush as soon as he realized what was happening.

For the entirety of the time she slept, Tsukishima made sure that she was comfortable and that she was securely in place. He also made sure that everyone, especially other males aboard, would keep a fair distance from them. Thankfully, the area where they were situated in didn't have much people, so he didn't have to worry about a single thing.

He relished the warmth of her smaller figure being against him. She looked soft and at peace. Her chest rose and fell in a steady rhythm and her lips slightly parted, letting out gentle breaths that he so ached to feel against his skin. He gulped. Oh, the endless thoughts running through his mind were almost enough to send him into madness. As much as he loved to study every single detail on her lovely features without her knowledge, the boy had to wake her up eventually when they reached their station.

The café wasn't far off from where they were, so they walked, the female taking the lead. (Y/N) was still a bit drowsy and has yet to rub off the sleep from her body, but she was awake enough to be well aware of where they were going. She couldn't wait to get herself caffeinated. Behind her, Tsukishima observed the slight sluggishness in her steps, and he couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

A gentle chime resonated thoughout the cozy establishment as (Y/N) pushed the glass door open. Almost instantly, the fresh smell of baked bread and ground coffee beans greeted her senses, making her stomach grumble. She blushed slightly. Right, she didn't have any time for breakfast earlier. Hopefully Tsukishima didn't hear.

From the outside, the place seemed small, but inside was just big enough to accommodate a handful of customers when the day reaches its peak. Albeit there are other popular cafés around the area to choose from, the female decided on going here. Other than the inexpensive and delicious menu items, there was something about the atmosphere of this place that never fails to calm her down and make her feel light inside. She wished that the café would gain the attention it deserved, though a part of her didn't want one of her favorite places to turn into a crowded, popular hangout area.

The café had just opened a few minutes ago, and it seemed that (Y/N) and Tsukishima were the first customers of the day. As they let themselves inside and headed towards the counter, the blond noticably perked up, and it wasn't long before she found out why.

Encased within glass and displayed right next to the counter were dozens of baked goods ranging from bread to pastries. All were lined up, neatly labeled, and were kept warm under heating lamps to ensure the desserts' freshness. His lit up golden hazel hues sweeped every item with such eagerness and delight as if he was silently debating on what he should get.

(Y/N) would've found the action cute if it weren't for his horrible attitude.

As they approached, a friendly looking lady from behind the register greeted them with a warm smile. "Good morning! What will the two of you be having?" Tsukishima's eyes momentarily scanned the beverage menu and the displayed desserts before finally deciding on something.
