Project Rebirth #2

Chapter 3

Y/N opened her eyes slowly, then immediately closed them. In her exhaustion last night, she had forgotten to close the curtains, therefore letting the morning light illuminate her room. She groaned, then checked the time on her clock. 6:32 AM. She could relax for a while, she supposed. Y/N grabbed her phone from her nightstand, clicking the power button when the screen didn't light up. The no battery signal appeared, causing her to sigh in exasperation. Of course she had forgotten to charge her phone. She plugged it in using the cord that she had left on the floor, hoping that there would be at least twenty percent charge by the time she had to begin the day. She tidied up her bedroom, picking up clothes and books strewn across the room.

    Y/N paused her work as she heard a faint beep from her nightstand. She checked the phone, where there was one new message. She read it over, frowning as she reached the signature. Why was Heizou being so abrupt? If he had wanted to talk to Y/N, wouldn't he have done it a long time ago? She used to ask him what was wrong, if he had wanted to talk about it, but he had always ignored her or replied with a snarky comment. Eventually she had begun to hate him, and had cut off all communication. Things had gotten better, but they rarely exchanged pleasantries and avoided each other in the halls. She opened up the chat to respond.

Shikanoin Heizou

Y/N: How did you get my phone number?

Y/N: And why were you texting at 3:30?

Heizou: I found it in a phone book and i can text whenever i want to

Heizou: So is it a yes or no

Y/N: Fine. What time?

Heizou: Heh. Well, you're up now, aren't you

Y/N: I am NOT going out at 6 am.

Heizou: Lame

Heizou: 2 pm then?

Y/N: Sure. Why are you talking to me now?

Heizou: rosebud, do i need a reason?

Y/N: What?

Heizou: 2 pm, at...Mini Patio Cafe ig

Y/N: Heizou, what did you mean by that?

Y/N: Heizou?

    Y/N slammed her phone down on her nightstand, thoroughly confused. Why did he call her rosebud? Her h/c hair was slightly similar to a rose, but she didn't understand why he had done something like that. But then, he flirted with everyone that he met so perhaps it shouldn't be that much of a surprise. Suddenly, she heard the doorbell ring, waking up her mother and father in the process.

    "Y/N, could you get that?" Her mother groaned, before beginning to snore.

    "Yes, mother." Y/N pulled on a sweatshirt and jeans before racing downstairs, running a hand through her tangled hair. She pulled the door open, freezing in surprise as she saw who it was.

    "Hi, Y/N," Kazuha said tiredly. "Our band is trying to get ready for an upcoming concert, but we need some help with practice. I already asked Ayaka, but she said that she had a call with her brother, couldn't miss it."

    "Sure, I can help," Y/N replied, stifling a yawn. "My parents are still sleeping and they don't care what I do on the weekends."

    "Great. I can drive you there since you don't have a car. Well, more like I can offer you a ride," Kazuha amended, "since I don't have a driving license."

    "I'm not allowed to go on the subway or a taxi," Y/N pointed out.

    "Well, the 5WIRL members are in the car right now," Kazuha said, pointing to Y/N's driveway. Indeed, there was a massive luxury-class Lexus LX parked in front of her house.
