Akihiko Sanada x Fem!Reader (P3)

Everyday you couldn't stop yourself from thinking about how weak you were. It frustrated you, and it bothered you that all you could do as complain about it.

You wanted to help people, only to realise you didn't have the strength for it. Like when that cat was stuck, you couldn't help it, forced to call someone else. Or when your friend got caught in a fight and you couldn't stand in front of them for their protection. 

Fora. While you were starting to wonder if you were just cursed to alive of being a weakling, when you overheard two girls.

"I heard Akihiko-senpai' match is today!" She sighed dreamily. "He's so cool. I need to help my dad though, so I can't go watch!"

Her friend giggled. "Don't worry! Everything Akihiko does is committed to my memory, so I'll relay it all to you!"

'A match...?'  You pondered it. 

You decided to go find out who this 'Akihiko' was. He wasn't too hard to find as there was a large group of squealing girls outside. After managed to get inside the building, you saw a ring with two people inside. 

The referee counted down, then swung down his arm with a blow of his whistle. Immediately after a white-haired bow threw the first punch.

'So it's a boxing match?' You continued to watch the two brawl. 'I guess it obvious with the boxing gloves.'

The white-haired bus opponent managed to land a few hits, but was ultimately destroyed. The referee counted to ten, then blew his whistle.

The girls erupted into cheers. 

The winner wiped his forehead after taking off the gloves, stepping down from the ring presumably to the locker room. The girls rushed after him, practically trembling each other's feet. Somehow you managed to slink past them and avoid getting hurt. 

You found a locker room, and contemplated your options. It might be a little weird for him to see you just waiting here, especially since you didn't know each other... 

You decided to wait nearby. However just as the door opened again, the excited girls had rushed over to see him. When the crowd finally dispersed, you couldn't see him in sight.

With a sigh, you went home.

You hadn't lost hope. The girls that had revealed the boxing match went to your school- Gekkoukan. Perhaps that meant Akihiko would be here too.

'Jeez, I sound like a stalker.'  You thought to yourself with a frown.

Unfortunately all day you hadn't seen him. It would have been too perfect for him to be in your class of course, but you were expecting to be at a little easier to find as he attracted crowds wherever he went. 

Lunch had rolled around, and your search wasn't improving any. Still, this could be your chance! Maybe being somewhere quiet to sort out your thoughts would help with finding him.

You went upstairs to the roof, the clear and calming blue sky relaxing you. All of this was to help you, so you couldn't give up, not when you were so close.

Actually, you were closer than you thought. A boy with white hair wearing a red vest was seated on one of the white benches, staring into the distance.

You approached him, unsure what to say. "Um... Akihiko, was it?"

He turned his head, looking less than thrilled to see you. "Yeah, I am."
