tanaka saw the way every student seemed to avoid y/n for the last few weeks.

first years, second years, hell, even the third years tried avoiding his path. and don't even get him started on the time asahi accidentally brushed y/n's shoulder in the hall.

but, an idea began to form in his mind.

and almost everyone knows, when tanaka gets an idea, it's either a big shock, or the worst idea known to mankind. (it was the latter.)

during a break in practice, he waltzed over snd nishinoya, making him stop drinking from
his water bottle. tanaka gave him a grin

"you want money?"

nishinoya heard the last word and immediately started to grin. "money? uh, yeah!" but then his eyes narrowed. "what's the catch?"

"it's a bet. i bet you 2000 yen... you can't become friends with y/n l/n within two..." he shrugged. "and a half, weeks," tanaka declared, a playful challenge in his voice. "so i'm giving you seventeen days. starting monday."

nishinoya's eyes widened in surprise. he seemed to blank out before yelling. "him?! why him?" he screeched. "he's scary and he probably can beat my ass any day of the week! what if he decides he hates me and gets his gang to place a bounty on my head? i'll look at him the wrong way and then he'll look at me with eyes that kill!"

tanaka uncovered his ears, then a smirk played on his lips. "come on, noya! everyone's avoiding him and it's getting kinda sad. i wanna see if you can make friends with him, that's all."

it was definitely not all.

"don't say you're chicken."

nishinoya's reluctance washed away when he really thought about it. rude, he wasn't chicken!

and... all he really had to do was become friends with y/n, then he would get money. tanaka never said anything about having to be permanent friends with him.

huh. okay!

"ugh... fine, you're on! i'll befriend l/n, just you wait and see."

y/n wandered down the hall, lost in thought. he spotted a girl ahead, juggling a few books and a water bottle. she seemed to lose her grip, and the bottle slipped from her hands, clattering to the floor.

y/n walked over and bent down slowly, scooping up the bottle before it rolled too far.

"you dropped this." he called out, extending the bottle towards her.

the girl turned, her eyes widening in recognition. she seemed to freeze, her face draining of color as she took in who was holding her bottle.

y/n felt a pang of frustration.
