A/N: Yay my first publish to my Mob Psycho 100 book! This is pretty restrained since I'm still trying to get a feel of Reigen's personality. Hope it's ok though! Please enjoy!

Mob, Mob, what do you want?

~~~~~

Reigen sat silently as he stared at your smiling picture on his phone, his finger hovering over the call button.

Why was he even calling you? Its not like you cared about him or anything. He'd probably be bothering you.

Still, the man let out a deep sigh and pressed call. His palms began to sweat as the phone rang obnoxiously in his ear. He was itching to tell you the news, but talking to you was always so nerve-wracking.

"Hello?"

"Ah, hey, (name)."

"Hey! What's up honey hair?"

He blushed at that nickname,

"O-oh nothing much," Reigen cursed to himself as he felt his throat clam up,

"How bout you?"

You huffed, "Oh nothing, cleaning up my mess of room. How was work?"

He stayed silent, not even sure how to properly bring it up, so he just blurted out,

"I bought an office."

"Whoa, really? Reigen, that's great!"

"You think so?" He said gently with a smile, happy to have distracted you from your question.

"Of course! Can I go see it?"

Reigen chuckled nervously,

"Sure, but it's not that built up yet."

"Oh, that's fine. I would've been surprised if it was done up already," you said with your usual adorable laugh.

"So can I come over now?" you said in a teasing tone.

"Uhm, I dunno (name) I'm--"

"Too late! I'm going."

"(name) really I--" Reigen cringed as you abruptly hung up on him.

Damnit. This wasn't going to end well.

You adjusted the bag at your shoulder before promptly knocking on Reigen's apartment door. There was a shuffling of what sounded like clothes, then finally the door opened.

Your lips instantly stretched into a wide smile at the sight of your childhood friend in his fancy grey suit. He looked like such a professional.

"You look nice," you said with a tug of his suit while he locked his apartment door.

'Just be confident. Women like confident men right? Geez, I've been out of the game too long...wait. Was I ever even in the game!?'

The man smiled smugly,

"Well of course I do," he said despite his internal nervousness (and screaming).

You chuckled and poked his chest playfully,

"Don't get cocky, honey hair."

Reigen's cheeks felt heat as he adverted his eyes in an attempt to appear calm and collected,

"Y-yeah, let's just go alright."

You nodded and with that you were off.

The walk was a little too quiet for your taste. Reigen kept his eyes forward and ever so focused for most of the time. He looked so serious, so deep in his own thoughts it was almost like he forgot you were there. You wondered what the man was thinking about. What was going through the great Reigen Arataka's head?
