It's Okay To Be Different (Sakura Haruka X Reader)

Chapter 17

Previously on Chapter 16

I let out a soft giggle as I watch his reaction. It's always been so easy to get him flustered. That's Sakura Haruka for you. But aside from that, he's my boyfriend and I wouldn't change anything about him.

-An Awkward Encounter-

Y/N P.O.V

We walk around the town as per usual, trying to make sure no one would try to create trouble to the people in town. Of course, I'd be walking next to Haruka. He held my hand gently in his as we patrol around the town. I look around the area as we walk.

A sudden yell catches our attention. I release Haruka's hand as we rush forward. There's a girl being bothered by a bunch of guys. I clenched my hands into tight fists. I rush forward and jump, kicking him right on his back. He falls forward on impact, landing on the ground with a thud.

"What the hell!" The person I just kicked exclaimed. He rub his head with a pained expression. I move to stand in front of the girl, trying to protect her from these guys. He turn his head to look at me. "Why you... just because you're a girl, doesn't mean I'd go easy on you!" He said.

"Hey... look at her uniform. She's a Furin" one of his friend said, placing a hand on his shoulder. But he just brush it off and lift his fist, ready to punch me. I lift my fists, getting ready to fight. But before he could do anything, a feet comes in contact with his face which makes him fall over once again.

"I won't go easy on you either if you dare lay a hand on my girl!" Haruka said, moving to stand in front of me protectively. My eyes soften at his gesture. He turns his head to look at me. "Just leave the fight to me, Y/N..." he said. I just nod my head. He turns his attention to the guys, cracking his fingers. "Now then, which one of you wanna go down first?" He said.

"Don't talk so highly just because you're a part of Furin, punk!" One of them said. They rush towards Haruka. I just watch in amusement as Haruka easily win against them. They run off not long after.

Haruka turn his head to look at me and smiles. I smile back at him. I turn to look at the girl behind me. I gently place a hand on her shoulder. "There... you're safe now" I said, sending her a soft smile. She bows at as a sign of gratitude. She turns around and walks away.

Eventually, it's time for us to head to the restaurant we have been invited to. I have my arm looped through Haruka's arm, while Nirei pulls Suo along. I let out a laugh at how persistent he's being towards Suo. It's funny to see Suo didn't even have a chance to refuse.

"Ah, over here!" Tsugeura called out, turning around to face us. Haruka removes his arm from mine, lowering it down to hold my hand instead. The two of us make our way closer to his table. There's only two seats on each side.

"You go grab another chair. Y/N will be sitting next to me" Haruka said, turning to look at Suo since Nirei has claimed the empty spot next to Tsugeura. Suo nods his head.

Haruka pulls me towards the chair and gestures me to sit down. He claims his spot next to me. He place a hand under the chair, yanking it closer to his side. I yelped at his action, as my chair skidded closer to him.

He places a hand on the backrest right behind me. Suo pulls the chair to sit next to me. Since if he place the chair on the side, it would block the path for people to walk. Haruka didn't look happy with that since he knew that Suo feels something for me. I gently pat his thigh which makes him relax a little.

"So, are you hungry, Sakura? I would recommend this Okonomiyaki. It used no flour" he said, as he states to explain the food. I blink my eyes at what he said. So the food is basically healthy food. I mean, it makes sense seeing how the restaurant look. I turn my head to look at Haruka who didn't seem interested with the food. I let out a laugh at his reaction.

The door opens to reveal a guy with pink hair. I notice he's wearing a Furin uniform, and next to him is a girl. They seem to be holding hand. But judging by how to the girl seems in distressed, they're probably not dating. I'm guessing he just saved the girl or something.

"Wahh... amazing! 5 of 6 strongest in class 1-1 is gathered here!" Nirei said, with a blush on his cheeks as he seems excited. I blink my eyes at what he just said. Suo noticed the look on my face.

"I think he also meant you, L/N-San. Isn't that right, Nirei?" He said. I turn to look at him in surprise. Nirei nods his head rapidly. "Oh, and good for you, Sakura-Kun. You are one of the 6 strongest" he said. Haruka's face turns red almost instantly.

"How strong he is?" He asked. He seems interested in the boy, so he starts to ask Nirei for any information. As Nirei mentioned about the girl, he quickly said that's not what he wants to know. He looks so flustered, which is really cute to witness.

"Why are you being so flustered with the fact that the girl might be his girlfriend?" Suo said. Haruka turn his head to look at him. I turn to look at Suo as well. "Do I have to remind you that you have a girlfriend yourself?" He said. I just watch as he slowly lift his hand. "And she is right here..." he said, pointing his finger at me. This only makes Haruka's face turns even redder. I cover my mouth as I let out a giggle.

"Why's your face so red?" Nirei said. Haruka looks like he's also streaming as he seems embarrassed. But he still looks wants more information about the guy.

"Ah, Sakura-Kun, are you curious about Kiryu-Kun?" Tsugeura said. We turn our heads to look at him. He grins as he stands up. "Oi, Kiryu-San! Come and have a chat with us! She can come as well!" He exclaimed. Haruka flinched at his action and tried to shush him. But the guy didn't listen. "Sakura-Kun said he is interested getting to know you!" He said. Haruka turn his head to look at the guy.

"Ah... so you're Sakura-Chan, huh? I know your face. But I don't know your name. You're the one who fought Sugi-Chan, right?" He said, smiling at him. He turn his head to look at me. "Ah, I also remember this cute girl. I believe your name is L/N Y/N, right? What a beautiful name for a beautiful girl. As much as I wanna have a chat with you guys, I'm kinda busy right now. So, later at school, maybe?" He said. I let out a nervous laugh as he turned his attention to the girl. I turn my head to look at Haruka and let out a nervous laugh at his face.

"All that did was embarrass me, and he also flirt with my girlfriend" he grumbled, making me laugh at what he said. He turn his head and look at me. "Don't laugh at me" he said. I cover my mouth as I try not to laugh. But man... that sure was awkward.
