2.27. I'm No Cheesecake

Y/N opened the door and was immediately shot in the chest.

His cheeks flushed with surprise. He looked down at the NERF bullet sticking to his hoodie. "...why?"

Aiku shrugged, taking back the bullet and reloading his gun. "Figured it'd be funny."

He stood outside with Sendou, the two of them having accepted Y/N's invite. Hesitating, Y/N beckoned for them to come in. "Two more to add to the total..."

"Hmm?"

Y/N laughed. "So many more people showed up than I'd expected. I thought only like five of you would come."

"You asked literally the entire group chat."

"Oopsie." Y/N shrugged, locking the door behind Aiku. "Well, it's just gonna be a little cramped."

His apartment was already completely full. Isagi, Chigiri, Bachira and Aryu were sprawled out over the single sofa he had. Karasu, Raichi were arguing about something in the corner, alongside... Barou?

Yukimiya and Reo stood in the corner of the room, quietly talking. And by the kitchen counters, Gagamaru was perched on the countertop, eating the expensive beef Y/N had bought completely raw.

I guess I did kind of let that happen. Y/N winced. Better Gagamaru have it than... that guy, anyway.

Shidou propped himself up on the counter, trying to sweet-talk Gagamaru into giving him some of the beef - or at least get it cooked. He was the first to see Y/N walk in with Aiku and Sendou, grinning like a madman and waving. And also the first to receive a NERF bullet to the face.

Y/N waved cautiously back. He turned to Aiku, who was making a big show of blowing on the barrel of his gun. "Wait, do you see Nagi anywhere?"

"Who's that? The white-haired kid?"

"Yeah."

"No sign of him. Did you invite him?" Aiku tossed the gun on Y/N's table.

"He was here a second ago..." Y/N sighed deeply. "Don't tell me..." Striding across the room to the door to his bedroom, which was firmly closed, Y/N cracked it open.

What a surprise. Nagi had hijacked his bed, lying at the bottom of it sideways so his legs flopped off one side and his head hung off the other. And somehow, he was sound asleep. Y/N scowled, marched over, and tugged Nagi right off.

The sleeping boy hit the floor with a thump, eyes flying open. "A squared plus B squared!"

"What?" Y/N shook his head. "You know what, it doesn't matter. What are you doing here?"

Nagi stared dumbly up at him, not bothering to move from his position on the floor. "You invited me...?"

"I mean in my room! I told everyone the bedroom was off-limits!" Now, Y/N hated control. If it was someone else that had made that rule, he would've definitely complained. But his room was his. He chose who went in.

And also, he'd just deep cleaned it, and didn't want more than a dozen sweaty boys lounging around.

"Oh."

Y/N took hold of his arms, trying to tug him out. Nagi barely budged. Y/N gaped. "How heavy are you?"

"Gimme a piggyback."

"You're gonna crush me."

"I promise I won't. Reo does it all the time."

"Do I look as muscular as Reo? You'd kill me."

"Reo says you never know until you try."

"Reo can take that logic up the as-"

Yukimiya cleared his throat in the doorway. Y/n leapt about a foot into the air, stepping away from the model. But he just smiled politely, and a little nervously. "Did I interrupt something?"
