"Y/N-senpai! Wait for a minute!"

You stopped walking, raising an eyebrow at the hunched over boy in front of you. He was breathing hard from running.

"I need... to speak to you." He huffed, setting one hand on your shoulder as his breathing slowly returned to normal.

"About?"

"Shishido-san is going on a date tonight, and he's kind of nervous," Choutarou said.

"Um, okay." You really didn't like where this was going.

"He sort of... made it a double date..." he rubbed the back of his neck, nervously, "Will you... I mean, if you're free... maybe you could..."

You chuckled, realizing what was happening. "Yes, I'll play the role of your girlfriend."

He smiled, pulling you into a hug. "Thank you so much, Y/N-senpai! I'll be at your house around six-thirty, okay?"

You nodded and he took off, waving and smiling that smile that lit up the darkest of nights. 'I swear, that boys does far too much for Shishido,'

Choutarou arrived at your house at six-thirty on the dot, dressed in jeans and a black muscle shirt which hid slightly underneath the blue and white sleeveless zip vest he wore. He also had a slight tinge of pink on his cheeks. "Ready to go?"

"Yeah," you nodded, closing and locking the door behind you. "Where're we going?"

"Shin's Bisto. Shishido-san said he'd meet us there."

"Ahh."

The restaurant that you were taken to was pretty fancy and high class. Shishido and his date were already at the table by the time you arrived. They were sat at a table near the balcony door. The glass door had been left open, letting the moonlight and bright stars shine on the table.

You knew instantly that you didn't like Shishido's date who was dressed in a tight red mini dress that rode up close to her crotch. Choutarou sat in front of you, close to the door, while you sat across from Shishido.

"Glad you guys could make it. This is Suzane Matsumoto." He motioned towards the blonde next to him, "Suzane, this is my best friend, Choutarou Ootori, and his girlfriend, Y/N."

"Nice to meet you," Choutarou smiled, kindly.

She nodded, sending a fake smile his way and glaring your way. You don't recall doing anything to her... yet. "It's very nice to meet you both," she responded in a sickly sweet voice laced with something you couldn't quite put your finger on.

"Excuse me," Shishido stood up, "Gotta use the bathroom. I'll be back in a minute. Why don't you guys get to know each other?"

As soon as Shishido was out of sight, Suzane's fake smile dropped and she leaned forward towards Choutarou.

"You really shouldn't be going out with her," she glared at you, "She's nothing but a trouble making delinquent who's only using you for self-gain. You should get out while you still can."

Your brow furrowed and a light suddenly went off in your head. That's why she looked so familiar! You had rejected her older brother a week prior. 'Hey, she's got the delinquent part right, but the self-gain sounds more her style',
