"I bet you can't."


You stare at your friend for a few seconds with your arms crossed over your chest before looking over at the guy behind you. Haitani Ran, the most popular guy in your high school.


In his circle, there's his younger brother who's just about your age, their close friend Hanma Shuji, and another close friend called Hanemiya Kazutora.

You have just been dared to go ask for Haitani Ran's number and you almost asked for a different dare when your friend said she bets you can't which made you want to prove her wrong.



"I'll do it. I'll get his damn number." You mutter, rolling your eyes before exhaling.



As much as you want to be confident, you know there's a huge chance you'll get embarrassed. Though Haitani Ran is known to be friendly towards girls, he has never given a single girl his number. Actually, it's the same for everyone in his circle.



They've dated girls here and there but no one has ever gotten past the friendzone from what you know. They're very private people even though they may seem like social butterflies. You've never really paid that much attention to them since you were more interested in the guy in your sewing club.



Before you knew it, you were standing in front of Ran, Rindou, and their friends. They stopped talking as soon as they noticed you and everyone, except Rindou, gave you a smile.



"Hi there." The three guys said along with your name in chorus while Rindou had his eyes on one of the trees a couple feet away.

"Hello..." You greet them, your heart just wanting to jump out of your chest.



"Is there anything you need from us?" Ran asks, his eyes fixated on you.



"Actually, I want your number." You say pointing to Rindou who turned his whole attention to you with wide eyes.


You could hear your friends asking you why you pointed to Rindou when you were supposed to get Ran's but whatever. You just got way too nervous and it looked like Ran was ready to decline.



"My number? W-Why...?"


Rindou, who had been used to being in his brother's shadows, was flustered when he realized you had asked for his number instead of the older haitani's.


Kazutora and Hanma snickered, elbowing each other's side as they watched the scene in front of them unfold.

Ran, on the other hand, was surprised and still could not believe it. He chuckles and shakes his head before bending a little to make his face a little closer to yours.



"Are you sure you don't want mine?" He asks with his cocky grin.



Your eyes trailed from his long hair—that's shockingly not in his usual braids today—to his captivating eyes. Hell yeah you want his number but you just don't have it in you to fuel his ego so you ignore him and thrust your phone towards his younger brother's direction.



Rindou's eyes flickered from yours to Hanma's to Kazutora's and to his brother before finally stopping on the mobile phone. He slowly took it and put his number in, calling it so his phone could get yours right away, before handing it back to you.




It was silent and you were quick to walk away as soon as you were handed back your phone but not before giving Rindou a small smile and a wave.
