the next day was y/n's day off, as a gift from ego for winning the previous game. flopping onto her bed, she decided where she would go to during her day off. she sat up and got ready, choosing her outfit of the day.

she bid goodbye to ego and anri, to which anri smiled gently to. she walked to the downtown, browsing through some clothes and makeup cosmetics, picking up a few for her cart. after buying the items, the cashier packed her items in the bag, and she walked to the fancy luxurious place. she couldn't have afforded anything if it weren't for ego giving her a big budget.

as she entered the store, she went to the accessory items, bumping into a wall. "oh my god! i'm so sorry!" y/n bowed, apologizing to the tall male. "its fine." he muttered, glancing at her. 'she's pretty..and she looks familiar' he thought. 'oh my lord. is that who i think it is..' the other thought. just as the male was about to walk away, she grabbed his wrist, calling out to him. "sorry! are you sae itoshi?" she asked nervously, toying with her fingers. "..y/n?.." he asked. "oh my god, pinkie!" she exclaimed, jumping on to his back.

the pink haired man grabbed the plush of her thighs to prevent her from falling. "hey, n/n"

"what are you doing here? i thought you went to spain or something." she asked, clinging her arms around his neck before dropping back to the floor to face him. "my passport expired." he simply answered.

"what do you want? i'll buy you something." he announced, grabbing her hand.

"really, pinkie?" she exclaimed, clapping her hands together.

"only if you stop calling me that."

"nuh uh.."

"..."

"...fine." she grumbled, pouting her lips.

she dragged sae over to the rings, glancing at each ring to see which one she wanted. "ouh! this one, sae!" she smiled, pointing at a ring, which had a red ruby shaped into a ring with gold loops on each side, secured with a diamond at the end. the rest of the ring was a gold lining. "it looks nice, right??" she held it up, putting it on her finger before shoving her hand into his face. "uh yeah." he simply replied.

"is that all, sir?" the cashier asked sae, who nodded his head. "your total is 91,136 yen (about $567), sir." sae dug into his pocket and brought out a black colored card, handing it to the cashier. "holy shit." the s/c skinned girl muttered, glancing at the price before her eyes. "91.1k for a ring.." she bit her lip nervously.

when the two exited the store, she awkwardly asked the itoshi, "is that too much? sorry.. i didnt know it cost that much." she nervously tugged the other small bag in her hand. "don't worry, it barely cost anything anyways." he glanced, admiring the way the light shone onto her h/c hair, and how glowy her skin looked in the sunlight. her clothes paired with her eyes perfectly, bringing out the e/c color of her eyes.

"thanks, pinkie." she smiled glancing at him, "i told you not to call me that.." he muttered, glancing to the side to hide his flushed cheeks from almost being caught. "why nottt.." she groaned, tugging his arm. "fine. call me whatever." he grumbled.

'y/n 1, sae 0!' she thought, cheering internally at her victory. "hey, pinkie?" "what is it." he replied shortly. "if you only came back to renew your passport, why are you here?" she asked. "i heard of this blue lock project, and decided to see what kind of striker japan will produce." he answered, his hand brushing against hers.

sae noticed how she was walking on the other side of the sidewalk, switching sides with her so he would be on the outside. "what was that for?" "nothing."

"anyways! i'm the new manager for that project, you know? since i used to play soccer" she rambled about how she was such an amazing player. "why'd you quit anyways?" "uhhh. i forgot!" she giddily smiled. "you're so dumb sometimes." he chuckled.
