"kelp" His voice was casual and friendly and it had a weird effect on me. I could feel my cheeks turn red.
"Oh.. uhh.. I really don't know what does that mean.. i'm sorry.." i honestly said and i saw his finger pointing to the empty space beside me. A smiled tugged at my lips. "Oh, sure! There's plenty of room!"
Inumaki-senpai settled onto the grass, joining me in my stargazing reverie. For a while, we simply laid there, sharing the quiet company of kindred spirits under the vast expanse of stars.
"Mustard leaf?" Inumaki-senpai finally broke the silence, his voice filled with worry. I thought it must mean if i was okay.
"I couldn't be better! Somehow i couldn't get any sleep and so i decided to come out here to take a walk. The sky's amazing tonight, don't you think?"
I asked while keeping my eyes on the stars.
"salmon" he softly agreed.
"do you speak with rice ball ingredients so you don't hurt anyone?" The feeling of curiosity gently tugged at the strings of my heart and the desire to know more about him was urging me.3rd person pov
Underneath the canvas of stars, they found common ground in the simplest of moments, their laughter echoing with the night breeze. As they talked, they discovered shared interests and quirks that made them both laugh and nod in understanding. (y/n) talked about her favorite movies, swapped stories of childhood escapades, shared dreams of places she longed to explore and eventually she opened up about her mom's death and the trauma it caused her.
Their conversation was punctuated by comfortable silence, where they simply sat, in the serenity of the night and the warmth of each other's company."Don't you ever get bored or tired speaking with only ingredients? Don't you sometimes wish to be the one who's talking and not just be the listener?" (y/n)'s question was made out of genuine curiosity. Inumaki was caught off guard as he was never asked something like this before. He wasn't ready nor did he know how to reply so he just remained silent. In that instant moment, he found himself drawn to her presence like a magnet, yet he couldn't quite pinpoint the reason why. She was just another face in the crowd, another voice in the symphony of the world around him, or so he thought. Their conversation started off simple enough, but as they spent more time together, he found himself enjoying her company more and more, craving the sound of her voice and the sparkle in her eyes.
He didn't think much of it at first, chalking it up to just being good friends.
(y/n) was enjoying Inumaki's company a lot, though she wished she could hear him speak more. They were both laying next to each other on the fresh grass and admiring every little star that was shining in the night sky. They weren't aware of the time and neither of them cared to check. (y/n)'s eyelids grew heavy as she breathed in the fresh scent of the night. As darkness settles, her thoughts began to fade and she sank deeper into the comfort of the grass beneath her. With each breath, she felt herself letting go, surrendering to the embrace of slumber.(y/n)'s pov
I felt tight grips on my arm and thigh, a warm and hard surface pressing against my other side of the body, as if someone was carrying me. His touch, firm yet gentle, filled me with a sense of security and his warmth was lulling me. Being suddenly hit by the cold wind, i snuggled more into the crook of his neck where the heat welcomed me again. With each step, i felt myself being lifted higher while his thumb began to caress my arm in circle motions. My nose breathed in his sweet and fresh scent, and i opened my eyes enough to see Inumaki-senpai's off-white hair. I smiled and I closed my eyes letting myself fall asleep again while my body slowly melts into his gentle touch.

Here's that sound, that i absolutely hate. I groaned wanting to sleep more since my body still needs some rest but my mind was still vivid about what happened a few hours ago, I immediately sat myself up while scattered memories of Inumaki-senpai holding me were coming onto my mind. I cupped my face with my hands as i felt my cheeks burning and my heart starting to pound really fast in my chest. His warmth, the thumb caress on my arm, his unforgettable scent, everything about him and the thought of him woke my body up as it started to miss his touch. I slapped my face hard enough to remind myself that i'm here to improve and focus on training , i do not have the time to be thinking about love. What am i even saying! I definitely don't have a crush on him..
I pouted and got up from my bed, went to the bathroom and looked at myself in the mirror. I had messy hair and luckily i didn't find any piece of grass in it. I had huge eyebags due to the little amount of sleep i got. I sighed and started getting myself ready to have breakfast with the others. That would mean our upperclassmen are going to be there with us. After finishing preparing myself i walked myself where we usually have breakfast together, which wasn't far away from my dorm. I opened the door and saw Megumi and Nobara already there waiting for me.
