BOTH OF YOU WERE ON THE WAY TO YOUR MOTHER AND ERI. Hitoshi still couldn't figure out what was wrong so the whole time, both of you were silent. It wasn't the awkward type of silence—just silence. "Do you want to get pizza later?" Hitoshi suddenly asked and you looked back at him with a wide grin on your face, nodding your head. "Wow, that was...easy." He chuckled as he scratched the side of his head. "Well, it is about food and I like to eat," you said while taking a turn but suddenly bumping into a figure making you fall back slightly from the impact but it was a good thing Hitoshi was quick to support you before you fully fell.

"Sorry about that!" you apologized but was only blushing when you realized you had bumped into none other than Katsuki. "Oh! Hi, Katsu! I'm sorry about leaving you earlier, by the way..." Katsuki looked at Hitoshi for a while before looking back at you with a small nod. "No problem. I didn't know you guys were truly dating. I thought it was just a rumor." Hitoshi shook his head upon hearing this and looked away but still not leaving your side. "What?" You felt your cheeks heat up as your eyes widened and your eyebrows raised. "So, what if it's true?" Hitoshi smirked as he placed a hand on your shoulder, his head tilting as you felt vibrations of shock run down your back. "Would you have a problem with that?"

"Excuse me for a moment..." you said while pushing Hitoshi away from the spiky blonde male. "What are you doing?!" you whisper-yelled as the two of you were a bit further away from Katsuki. "And what's with the sudden mood change all of a sudden?" Hitoshi frowned as his gaze softened at your agitated one. "I'm sorry, I didn't know that somebody else's attention was much better than mine..." he said while he cocked his eyebrows. "Why are you like this?! We're not dating!"

"Surely doesn't feel like that..." Hitoshi whispered under his breath. "What was that?" you pouted as you squinted your eyes at him. "You know what—just go to Mom and Eri first and then, I'll go there after I talk with Katsu and we'll get that pizza, alright?" You smiled at him warmly and even though he despised the thought of you talking to the guy that makes him jealous, he nodded and went his own way to go to Naomi and Eri. You made your way to Katsuki and bowed. "I'm really sorry again, Katsu..."

"Did I make your boyfriend jealous?" Katsuki smirked as he shook his head.

"H-he's not my..." you trailed off as Katsuki placed a hand on your head, patting it softly. "...boyfriend..."

"So, you're not dating him?" Katsuki's shocked face wasn't hidden but it sure had a tinge of doubt with it. You shook your head but Katsuki let out a loud laugh. "So, you're just friends?" The shrug on your shoulder and the awkward smile you were wearing was enough to make Katsuki push you to the nearby wall. "W-what are you doing?" Katsuki's arm was placed on one side of your head while his other arm was shoved into his pants' pocket. "It just means I still have a chance with you?"

"Katsuki, we've talked about this..." you whispered as you took a deep breath, Katsuki still not moving away from his position. "I know we did, (your name). But I still can't get over you and the way you let Hitoshi treat you makes me jealous." Katsuki admitted as his gaze went to the floor. "I should be the one doing those things to you..." You let out a big sigh and then gulped the last remaining bits of your sanity with these boys. "Katsuki, I only like you as a friend."
