The familiar ringing of your alarm woke you up from your less-than-satisfying "nap". You check your phone, just in case you got any messages. You read the 4 unread messages from Sero as you try to wake yourself up. 

"wh.."

you don't put too much thought into it.. He probably just needed to copy some homework. Its weird having homework on the first day of school..

Walking to school, you couldn't stop thinking about those messages.. They were too vague. But, he did seem pretty serious.. 

your thoughts were interrupted as you walked directly into a lamppost. 

"AGH!!" you stumble backwards, surprised and pained. You landed flat on your ass in the middle of the sidewalk.

"NICE!!" you hear a voice yell from a distance away.

You lift your aching head to see Sero, holding back laughter as he walks over to you.

"are you okay" he asked jokingly while extending his hand for you to grab hold of.

"ugh.. yeah, im fine" you managed to get out. You didn't realise it, but you were blushing. Sero definitely did, though as he became visibly more awkward than usual.

You decided to break the awkward silence with something even more awkward.

"well hey, uh, what were you trying to ask me last night?"

'shit. you shouldn't have asked that..'

the awkward tension grew between you and Sero as he got noticeably red. 

"uhh, i was-" he stuttered out.

'oh shit, wait..'

'was he..'

'no.. he couldn't have been.'

'was he asking me out?'

"I was just wondering if you wanted to round up the group and go to the pool after school today? I have one in my backyard.. it was just a thought though" he finally managed to say.

"oh yeah, sure" you replied.

you couldn't understand why you were slightly disappointed by his question..

~Sero's POV:~

'shit, man, why didn't I just tell her the truth? she probably wouldn't have killed me.. I mean, I kinda think she's into me too..' 

you head toward the big school with (y/n).

'something seems different about her today.. maybe it was from when she hit her head..'
