•PAPER RINGS• {NAGI SEISHIRO}

|Chapter Thirteen|

In the winter, in the icy outdoor pool
When you jumped in first, I went in too
I'm with you even if it makes me blue

"She is allergic to ginger. Her favourite drink in banana milkshake. She doesn't like coffee, but occasionally can have it. Chocolate and strawberry are her favourite flavours."

[Please for once, let's imagine you like the same things as well.]

Nia smiled. As Sei mentally noted down. He nodded with a pleased smile. "Thank you, Nia. Please, don't tell Y/n." He spoke and sprint out of Rin's dorm, who was glaring at him, constantly, tapping his feet in impatient, standing near the kitchen counter and his arm crossed over his chest.

"That's so insane! He can't just barge in and take away my girlfriend!!—"

He was cut of when Nia kissed. "Hold up! He just came here for some advice." She smile brightly.

"Advice? For what?"

°•^_^•°

"I am so happy you're back. I was so alone all this time." Nia pouts, twirling her pen in her notebook.

Y/n smiled, "Me too. I was missing you as well."

"Yeah, yeah. I am sure you were missing me." Nia teased Y/n, nudging her finger, in her abdomen, making her spring in her seat.

"Stop! I really did missed you, dummy." Y/n squeaked, chuckling, while rubbing the side of her waist, however the blush crept on her neck.

Y/n paused a second, thinking about the fake thing. Now that, Nia brought it up, she needs to confess it to her friend.

"Nia, I want to confess something."

Nia nods with a small smile, "What?"

"What do you mean, that, you are dating?" Nia asked, wiggling her fingers in air, as if for quotation marks. Her brows furrowed together with the obvious confusion. "Weren't you dating all this time?" She mused, her voice edgy.

Y/n inhaled sharply before clearing her throat and leaned in, putting her laced fingers in front of her. "This might sound crazy. But..." She scanned around the flooring of the classroom, biting the inside of her cheek. Her leg was shaking in nervousness, after all it is just too much to overlook the fact and keep on playing the fake role, and now she was drawing the curtains down, telling her best friend the truth.

"...I wasn't really dating Sei. He was my fake boyfriend." This time, Y/n put the quotations in air, while whispering to Nia. Nia was taken aback. Her eyes went round and jaw dropped to floor. She knew, that Y/n would never lie about something like that.

"What?" Nia asked, her posture straighten in realisation, which laid back on the chair, relaxed. She sound confused but her voice was dangerously low.

Why do best friends' tend to be so intimidating, when they get to know something that one never shared.

"You gotta be joking?" She exasperated, rubbing her eyes, then forehead, trying to comprehend the new learnt news. Y/n pressed her lips in a thin line, shaking her head. "Nope." She popped the 'p', shrugging.

"Oh my!" Her best friend, sitting across her exhaled sharply, putting her face in the brackets of her palms. "And here, I thought, my friend is a clean sweep, to takeover the hottest guy in the entire college." The disappointment, and sarcasm dripping from Nia's words.
