Shut your mouth! [Yata Misaki x Reader]

Chapter 8: Fushimi Saruhiko

         When [Y/N] awoke she saw that she was alone in the room and blushed remembering how she had asked the redhead to stay with her the night before and, to her surprise, how he had agreed. A silly smile lit her face, but she didn't understand why. Why does she feel so happy by the mere fact that the unbearable shorty had accompanied her? What was that feeling in her chest?

          It couldn't be that she liked the skater. He hadn't done more than talk with her since she had arrived to HOMRA and half the time he seemed annoyed with her presence. 'But.... I thought he held me while I slept last night'. If you hate someone you don't hug them right?

          Looking at the time and seeing that it was 9:30am, she decided to get up and go get something to eat for breakfast. Still absorbed in her contradictory thoughts about how adorable Yata can be sometimes and how much of an idiot he can be for the other, [Y/N] stopped on the last step after hearing her name.

          "Oi, Yata. You know what I noticed? That you barely stutter when you talk with [Y/N]", observed Izumo.

         'True. Except the first day, he barely stutters now', thought the young girl, remembering how every time Yata was close to any female, except Anna, he would get nervous and stutter. And not to mention when she needed to talk to someone, even if it was to ask for food or a question.

          "W-what d-do you mean?", asked the redhead.

          "Maybe you don't stutter because you feel comfortable with her...", started Izumo. Although [Y/N] couldn't see him from where she was, she had bet that the blond was displaying one of his sly smiles.

          "C-comfotable? D-don't say such nonsense, Izumo-san!", cried the skater. "She's unbearable! We're always arguing!"

          "Ah, Yata-chan. You've never heard that, those who fight love each other?"

          "T-That's rubbish!"

          [Y/N] could assume that by now, the hazel-eyed boy would be as red as a tomato. For a moment, she thought about leaving her hiding spot and letting them see her, but she quickly dismissed the idea. She was too curious and since the blond had suggested the redhead could hold feelings for her, her heart can't stop pounding. Could it be true?

          "Then tell us why don't you doesn't stutter when you talk to her like you do with the rest of the female population in the universe", intervened Chitose.

          "I d-don't know", muttered the redhead. "I don't even think you can consider her a girl!"

         'What?', was all that went through the mind of the young girl at that time. How can she not be considered a girl? She even wore skirts and dresses!

          She has breasts... that makes her a girl", said Chitose.

          "B-but she d-doesn't behave like one. Girls don't spend the entire day arguing"

         'It's clear that he hasn't spent time with any girl other than Anna', thought the two boys. Meanwhile, [Y/N], hurt by the redheaded words, exhaled several times until she calmed down, plastered on her best fake smile, and left her hideout.

          "Good morning", she greeted. The boys stopped their conversation immediately.

          "Good morning Sleeping Beauty", said Izumo, as the others nodded in her direction. "Do you want some breakfast?"

           "The truth is, I'm not that hungry. I think I'll take a shower and go out for a walk", she excused herself. Now she looks like she wasn't able to eat anything, she felt an unsettling feeling in her stomach.
