"Oi, (Y/N), is everything okay?" Noya asks, approaching with Tanaka to your table.
You look up from your book and smile. "Yes, why?"
"You haven't gone watching our practice all week." Tanaka answers, looking worried.
"Oh, that." You knew that they would eventually ask this so you had prepared an excuse. "My mom has had many clients at the bakery so I'm helping her out. This time of the year is terrible."
It actually wasn't but they didn't know that.
"Oh, I see. The whole team was getting worried at your absence." Noya explains. "Especially Daichi."
The mention of his name made you tense.
"Yeah, he seems a bit distracted when you're not there." Tanaka agrees as he massages his chin. "Why would that be?"
You shrug. "I have no idea."
"Well, we just really wanted to ask that." Noya says as the teacher enters. "The team will be assured now. Thanks!"
You didn't really get the thanks part but you smiled, trying to hide your pain. "Anytime."

"(Y/N)!" You walk faster. "Wait!"
You feel a hand grabbing your arm, forcing you to stop.
"O-Oh, hi Daichi, I didn't hear you." You laugh nervously.
His face is serious. "I'm just going to be straightforward, okay? Did my confession... scared you or anything? Because I feel like you're avoiding me." His face turns sad at the last part.
You start to sweat. "Who? Me? No, of course not." You turn your gaze to the ground, staring at his feet.
"Are you sure? I never meant to make you feel uncomfortable." His voice is sincere.
"I know." You mumble.
"I was serious, you know? I like you and want to be with you."
You close your fists and look up, making a sad smile. "And why would you want that?" His eyes widen at your question. "I'm just a little girl. You should be with someone who is good enough for you."
"Little girl?" He repeats, confused, before he recognizes from where he had heard that from. "Did- Did you hear Mayura saying that?"
"And I saw you two kissing, too." You say, your voice breaking.
Daichi almost seemed to be panicking. "(Y/N), I-"
"She's a jerk but she's right. I don't look like a woman, Daichi. I'm childish, I fangirl about fictional characters and I'm too emotional. So why would you want that?"
He wraps his arms around you, surprising you. He rubs your hair, calming your racing heart. You close your eyes, to prevent the tears from falling. His embrace was warm.
"Mayura kissed me. I pulled away almost instantly. I don't care about how you look, (Y/N). To me what really matters is the inside. But you are beautiful even on the outside so you don't really need to worry."
You look up and see the gentle smile on his face, his eyes warm. You feel yourself blush.
"You really are okay with me?"
He places his lips on yours. "Does that answer your question?" He asks, pulling away just a bit.
You shyly wrap your arms around his neck, tip-toeing. "I think I need more proof."
Daichi makes a bright smile and kisses you again. You feel safe. You feel at ease.
"Now you have no excuse to miss practice. I know that your mother is handling the bakery fully well." He winks at you and you laugh.
