Kasamatsu Yukio (1)

The Neighbor

Boxes are heavy.

That was a fact that [Name] had learned as she hauled box after box to her new apartment, which just happened be the second floor of the complex. She sighed in exhaustion as she stopped just for a second to rest. She looked down at the people walking right in front of the building. She wished that someone could just look up, see her in distress, and actually come to help her move these infernal contraptions. The hallway looked bigger than it really was. She knew that is was only a few meters until her destination, Room 207, but it looked like a kilometer.

She leaned against the railing of the balcony and closed her eyes. It was hard to accept the fact that she was actually in college. College! The idea that her, a student who had gotten only B's in her entire life, was actually going to a fairly good college. Just thinking of it made her want to jump in her place while giggling with excitement. Of course, she didn't. That would be weird. (i'd probably do it, just sayin')

Sighing once more, [Name] bended down and took the box into her arms. She wobbled slightly as she did so. She was never strong. She stood up and started walking towards her room. However, fate had another idea for her. She stumbled and started to fall backwards. Just as she had accepted that she was going to fall, a pair of sturdy arms stopped her from doing so.

"A-Ar-Are you okay?" a male voice asked from above her. She straightened up and turned around, almost hitting him with the box. "I think so. Thanks for catching me," she said, smiling in appreciation. He nodded with a bright red blush on his face. "Do you n-need help with that?" he asked. She looked down at the box and at her shaking arms. "Sure, I guess," she replied.

He lifted the box like it weighed nothing. [Name] stepped in front of him and led him to her apartment. She watched as he put the box with the four other boxes she had brought up. He turned to her. "Do you need help with getting the rest up?" he asked. She shrugged in response. "I couldn't pay you-," she started. He quickly cut her off, saying that he didn't need the money. She shrugged once more and started to walk out of the room.

By the time the two were done with moving all of [Name]'s belongings into her room, the sun had just started to go down into the horizon. She stretched her arms out after putting down a fairly light box. She had managed to learn a lot about this mysterious male. His name was Kasamatsu Yukio. He was a second year in the college that she was going to. He graduated from Kaijō Highschool and was the captain of the basketball team there. Residing in Room 204, he was technically her neighbor. There were more things that he told her during their time together. One that had caught her mind was his high school best friend who she was totally sure was more of a punching bag than a friend.

Closing the door softly, she looked at the male leaning on the wall next to her. She sighed. "Thank you so much for helping me. I would've been hauling those things all night," she said with gratitude lacing her words. Kasamatsu gave her an awkward smile while rubbing the back of his head in embarrassment. "It would've been rude t-to just ignore someone in trouble," he replied, his slight stutter making him look cuter than ever.

An awkward silence hung in the air as the two struggled to say something. It was finally broken by [Name], who really had just given up on the whole conversation thing. She had no idea why, but she didn't want to leave Kasamatsu's side. "I guess I'll see you later?" she half said and half asked. He nodded. "I'd like that very much," he said. He turned around and walked back to his apartment. Looking at his broad shoulders in the quickly disappearing sunlight, there was only one thought in her mind.

"I feel like I'm going to be seeing a lot of him in the future..."

I take requests as well.

Just saying~.
