Riiiiing!
The students, you included, all stood up from their seats barely seconds after the bell rang. You grabbed your bag and headed out the door to your locker, getting your stuff and preparing to leave. Your backpack swung around your shoulder as you began to walk down the hall towards Hatsu.

Before you could reach your friend, Nishinoya races over to you and stops you from moving forward. "Hey __!" He says.

You smile and simply say hello back to him, wanting to talk to Hatsu.

"Sooo.." Noya begins, awkwardly looking down at his feet. "I'm sorry again for hitting you with that volleyball. That never happens, I promise!" He apologizes, for probably the third time today.

You laugh. "Oh, it's okay!" You reassure him. You looked over his shoulder to see Hatsu, who looked like she was going to talk to you but now decided not to, probably because Noya was already speaking to you.

You both were silent for a moment before he spoke up. "Do you want to go and get some ice cream? There's this great place around here that just opened up," He offered.

"Sounds great!" You grinned, and his face immediately lit up.

You walked toward the exit but stopped to quickly speak with Hatsu. "Sorry, I can't walk home with you; I'm getting ice cream with Noya," You told her.

Hatsu giggled, nudging your arm playfully. "Sounds like someone has a crush!" She teased, quiet enough for only you to hear.

"Shut up!" You pushed her softly, your face a blushing mess.

Nishinoya suddenly takes your arm and drags you away from your friend. "__, come on~!" He joked. He eventually let go to allow you to look behind you and wave goodbye to Hatsu.

// kind of a timeskip i guess ??

The sun shone down on your face as you and Noya walked down the road. You and he make small talk before you spot the shop in the distance. It was small, with a red striped roof and tables with umbrellas surrounding the building, but it looked busy on the inside. Noya pointed it out to you, then grabbed your wrist and ran with you to the place. You weren't expecting him to pull you away, so you stumble and nearly fall. Luckily, Noya saw you jerk forward and he spun around to grab your arm and pull you up. You both laugh, then walk into the shop.

After waiting in line for several minutes, you ordered the ice creams. Despite you telling him not to, he payed for them both.

He decided to take you to a little park nearby, so you walked farther down the path. The ice cream was cold in your mouth, perfect on the warm spring day.

The park was nice, only with a slide and a few swings. The benches were all occupied, but you and Noya found a tree in the grassy field to sit under and enjoy the frozen treats.

He turned to look at you, his tongue swiping away a drop of the chocolate ice cream on his lips. "So, __," He begins, then stops. You could tell that he didn't know what to say; you found it kind of cute. "What's your favorite color?"

You chuckled softly at his question. "(f/c)," You replied. "Are we playing 20 questions now?" You joked.

He laughed. "I guess so."

"Okay then, what's your favorite food?" You asked.

"Garigari-kun popsicles, obviously!" He answered with a smirk. "Yours?"

"(f/f)," You responded.

He was quiet for a while and quickly checked his phone, noticing the time. "We should start heading back. I can walk home with you," He suggested.

You nod, and his face lit up again. This time, however, he walked oddly closer to you. You didn't know if you disliked it or enjoyed it. It actually made you feel more comfortable and closer to him, literally.

A few minutes later, you arrived at the street your house was on. Before you turn away from him, he speaks. "Oh, uh, could I get your number?" He asks shyly, holding out his phone.

You smile and nod, putting your phone number into his device.

He thanks you, his face a light shade of pink from blushing. "This was fun. We should hang out more often!" He said.

You agreed with him, said goodbye, then walked down the road to your home. You glanced behind your shoulder to see Noya walking in the opposite direction, a little bounce in his step.

Maybe this was a crush, you thought to yourself. Did you have feelings for him?
