Even more awkwardness

The next morning was like any other, you got ready and ate your breakfast like normal.

Except one thing wasn't normal. You had the uneasy feeling of being watched every couple of minutes. You'd look towards a direction, there'd be a flash of pink, and then the feeling would fade away and you'd be left baffled.

You just ignored this strange phenomenon and left for school after trying to make yourself look decent. Today was starting off on a bad note, and you just hoped to walk with your friends.

...

After a bit of walking, you saw all your friends, Tadano, Komi, Nagimi, and Shousuke.

Wait, Shousuke?!

You internally panic as you question in your mind what you did to deserve such an awkward and grueling punishment. Suddenly, you heard Nagimi shout your name.

Nag: Hey! Y/N!! Get up here! Your boyfriend is waiting!!~

You flush and your whole face turns red. You don't notice, but Shousuke flusters too, and he hopes nobody notices. Of course, everybody does.

You walk up and choose the spot farthest from Shousuke, hoping you won't have to talk to him much. Slowly, your friends find excuses to switch spots, making you walk right next to him.

His hand brushes against yours multiple times, and you hope and pray that he moves a bit so you can breathe.

You get the same fluttery feeling in your stomach every time your hand brushes against his, which is often. This feels like torture! When will it end?!?!?!

...

It ended. After dropping Shousuke at his school, you guys set off towards yours. Nagimi and Tadano teasing you about a crush you're not even sure you have. Komi even gets a few jabs in with teasing looks.

Now it's teasing torture... Even worse.

...

The school day goes by as normal, you do your school work, hang out with your friends, and you get obsessed over by Yamai, who makes it her duty to walk you home, just the two of you, and you swear she collects some of your hair every once in a while.

You're getting ready for bed when you get a text message from an unknown number. It's a simple message, but it has your heart racing.

Who could this be?

(*-Shousuke POV-*)

What if she thinks I'm a creep??

The black-haired boy thinks to himself, pacing around his room.

What if Nagimi gave me a fake number??!

Earlier, Shosuke had texted Nagimi and asked for your number, which she happily gave after teasing him a bit.

He had the message typed out.

"Hello,"

Is it too much? Too little? Too short? Too long?

He decided to switch it up.

"Hello, is this (YL/N) (Y/N)?"

He felt anxious, so he went to the only person He could ask for help.

...

Shou: Komi? Do you think (Y/N) would like this message?

Komi gives him a teasing look, and he flusters relentlessly. She reads the message, before looking at him quizzically.

Shou: Okay, don't give me that look. I know I'm overthinking. Just- please?

The girl looks at him teasingly again before nodding and giving him a thumbs up. He lets out a breath and walks back to his room, more giddy than he would ever admit.

He decides to add a bit more to his message before clicking send.

He realizes he spent way too much time stressing, as it was already getting dark.

He tosses his phone on the nightstand and plops down on his bed, his mind racing about what you might respond with before he passes out.

(Sorry for the super duper late update!! School is a killer and so are violin lessons 🙁)
