Daisuga - The Wizard's Apprentice

Chapter Two

Daichi's POV:

"Daichi! I'm sending you out again." My father said walking into my room. It had been a whole day since I had seen Sugawara, and I already missed him.

"Where?" I asked, with a little to much hope in my voice. My dad picked up on it.

"Settle down. I'm just sending you to town." He handed me a shopping list, along with another bag of herbs. I already knew where the bag was going. There was a store merchant who always bought from us. He and I are the same age, he inherited the shop from his crazy older sister. 

"I'll go in a little while, I need time to get ready." He left my room, mumbling to himself about how I'm all grown up. I'm only sixteen. I put on a dark blue shirt and some khaki pants. I grabbed my satchel, brushed my teeth, and left my house. The town was much closer than the Wizard's cottage, and I didn't have to go through the scary looking forest. 

I walked into the cute shop. I was quickly greeted by Tanaka and his sister,  Saeko. I passed them the herbs and purchased everything on my dad's list. I calmly walked out of their shop and decided to visit the shoe-maker. 

"Hey Asahi. How's it going?" I asked him. Asahi was taller than me. Despite being my age, he looked much older. He was wearing a dirty white apron and was polishing a pair of fancy shoes.

"Hi Daichi! It's been a while. I'm great! My business has been going really well!" He said, smiling very wide.

"Really? I'm happy to hear that." I looked at all of the shoes he had hanging on the wall. There was a smaller pair, not baby shoes, but smaller than regular adult shoes, that were extremely nice and shiny. "Who are these for?" I asked him pointing to them. I wouldn't dare touch them, as they looked like they costed more than my entire life. Asahi's face lit up.

"They're for the prince! He came here himself, they're a custom order." Asahi said, sounding very proud.

"Prince Nishinoya?! No way!" Asahi turned a little red when I said the prince's name. I gasped over-dramatically. "Someone has a crush!" He punched me in the shoulder. 

"Shut up! It's not like anything is gonna happen. He's all rich and royal and stuff. I'm just a shoe maker." Asahi said while looking out of the window of his shop. 

"You're not the only one with an unattainable crush." 

"Daichi! Who? When?" He asked quickly. I told him all about Sugawara, and how he is SUPER out of my league. "He seems cute. I'll keep an eye out for him." Asahi winked at me. We talked until the sun went down and I walked home. I opened the door and was greeted by my worried father.

"Where were you?!" He asked. "I was so worried!"

"Sorry dad. I got distracted. I'll get started on dinner." I walked over to the kitchen and made us some ham and cheese sandwiches.

"I have some good news. Ukai is already out of wolfsbane. He needs another delivery." My father said smirking.

"When!? I'll go right now!" I jumped out of my seat.

"Settle down! You are going tomorrow." I sat back down with a huff. Tomorrow couldn't come soon enough.

Sugawara's POV:

"Hey Suga" Ukai walked into my office.

"Yes sir?" I responded, not paying to much attention.

"I got you another chance with your boyfriend" I choked on my tea.

"PSSHHHH- whaaa? What are you talking about. Those potions must be getting to your head!" I said quickly while scurrying around, trying to avoid eye-contact.

"Don't be a dumb ass Suga. You've been drawing him all day." He said pointing to the walls. I looked around. Sure enough, there were sketches of him everywhere. I quickly took them all down, trying not to crinkle any of them. "He's coming by tomorrow. Clean this mess up" I pushed Ukai out the door, and turned around. My whole office was an absolute wreck. I took out my wand.

I have to get this right!  I thought to myself.

"Suspendisse Cantatio!" There was a loud boom. When I opened my eyes, the room was spotless. I was about to pick out an outfit when I heard two high-pitched, angry voices.

"No I love you more!"

"Well I love you the most!" 

I laughed at how cute they sounded. Those were none other than Hinata and Kageyama. Those two fairies lived just outside my house, and they are constantly bugging me for advice about each other.

"I'm sure you both love each other equally. Please relax!" I said, calming them down. I gently shut the window and began to search through my closet for some decent clothes. I decided on a black button-down shirt and some black pants. 

Ukai entered the room again.

"Wow, it looks great in here!" He said. "I didn't know he meant so much to you." 

"I hope I don't embarrass myself." 

"Anyway, your friend is here." Ukai walked out of the room. Yamaguchi walked in.

"Hey Suga! You won't believe what happened to me! You know that SUPER hot knight?" Yamaguchi spoke with such excitement.

"Tsukishima?"

"Yes! He waved at me today! I almost passed out!" 

"No way! Did you give him the card?"

"Yes! I didn't see him read it, but I slipped it in his bag when he wasn't looking. He's so pretty" Yamaguchi began to ramble on and on. He and I spoke until the stars came out. 

"I'd better get going. Good luck with Daichi!" He said while walking out.

"Thanks. Good luck with your knight!" I said to my love-sick friend. He has been crushing on that knight for two whole years. 

I changed into pajamas and got into my small light blue bed. 

I can't wait to see him.
