62: take care

when you woke up, rindou wasn't in bed anymore. instead, you saw he had left some clothes and a note on the nightstand next to you.

sorry i left before you woke up. you just looked too cute sleeping for me to wake you ♡

there's food in the fridge if you want breakfast, and feel free to keep my clothes.

rin xoxo

P.S. koko mentioned you have a phone now. here's my number *********

a huge grin broke out on your face as you read the note. he had left you a sweatshirt and matching sweatpants, which you knew they were his based on the size. still, you put them on and admired how they looked on you.

you found a spare pen and notepad on his desk, wrote him a message of your own, and then put it and another item on the other nightstand for him to find later. you made sure to grab your clothes and his note before heading back to your apartment.

since you were supposed to meet with koko that morning, you grabbed your phone and sent him a text explaining you overslept and would be down soon. while you were at it, you also saved rindou's number. you debated on whether or not to send him a text but eventually decided against it.

after you changed into your own clothes, you set rindou's aside to wash and return to him later and headed downstairs.

koko was already waiting for you when you got to the usual room. surprisingly, there was no one else there, and your favorite caffeinated beverage was next to your usual spot at the table.

"thanks koko. how'd you know i needed this?" you asked, letting out a small yawn as you sat across from him.

"just a guess." he said with a little smirk. "you had your date last night, didn't you?"

you glanced around the room to double check no one was there before answering.

"i did."

"how did it go?" koko asked.

you caught his gaze, biting your lip as you resisted the urge to smile.

"it was good." was all you said.

good was an understatement, but you tried to play it cool. you could guess koko loved to gossip, and you didn't want to seem too excited.

"it was good? that's it?" he questioned.

"mhmm.." you hummed, sipping your drink to buy you some time.

"is that why you were still at his place this morning?"

you just stared at him for a second, getting the distinct feeling koko didn't know and just wanted to bait you into revealing yourself.

you responded with a shrug, but he had other ideas.

"you know there's security cameras, right?"

"that's not going to work on me, hajime." you said, hoping using his given name would get you out of it.

"you went over to rindou's at 6:57 last night and left this morning wearing his sweatshirt and pants." he replied matter of factly, raising an eyebrow at you.

that seemed too oddly specific for him to not have checked the security camera footage himself.

"shit." you muttered. you were caught red handed.

"sold out by technology. who would've guessed?" he teased, noticing how you suddenly seemed a bit shier.

"now spill the details." he continued to press.
