narrator's pov.

kenma was the last person tetsurou should be ranting about a girl to. not only was he just focussed on his game, but he was also not a very good comfort person.

"kenma," tetsurou mumbled.

"what?" kenma replied, not taking his eyes off of the screen.

"do you think we'll end up together?"

"who? you and diluc?"

tetsurou sat up, "huh?"

"huh? uh, you and y/n," kenma corrected himself. he really wasn't all too worried about tetsurou's issues. "sorry, i was thinking about something."

"whatever," tetsurou shrugged, "we made this rules contract thing today, and she has to come to a party with me next week. do you wanna come too?"

"a party?" kenma chuckled dryly, "why would i go to a party?"

"it might be fun. go make friends, or at least just watch drunk people fall over and be messy. it's funny when it's not you," tetsurou told him.

he was most definitely speaking from experience, which was the most embarrassing part.

"bruh, don't we have training camp in like miyagi or something?"

"yeah, that's why it's gonna be better! there are gonna be like 10 teams worth of people, so that's more people to laugh at," tetsurou tried to persuade him.

kenma clicked. if you were going with tetsurou, that meant the girls must be joining them, "oh, wait, what?! so the girl's team is coming with us?"

"yes?" tetsurou answered, confused as to why his friend seemed so distraught that their sister team was going to be attending the same camp.

"ughh, that means the other girls teams are gonna be there..."

"what's wrong with that?"

"i met this girl from karasuno's team, and i thought i'd never see her again," kenma groaned.

"isn't that good?"

"no! she was annoying and i blocked her. she's probably going to the party too because she's all loud and extra like that," kenma groaned. "you're already going with y/n, what's the point in me being there?"

"dude, you're too asocial."

kenma leaned back against a box that he had been using as a table, "i'm an introvert. and i don't wanna do that sneaking out shit either, it's safer at the camp."

"you know what? i don't care, you're coming to the party with us," tetsurou decided for him. as much as kenma might not want to, what was he gonna do if tetsurou carried him out? he couldn't fight back.

y/n's house.

"say i had a boyfriend," you blurted out.

your mother's eyes darted away from the screen, but she didn't seem to have much of a reaction otherwise.

"you have a boyfriend?!" your father began coughing.

he was outside smoking a cigarette so you didn't even think that he'd hear.

"i'm not talking to you," you called. "anyway, mom."

"yes, say you had a boyfriend?"

you played with your fingers in your lap, "how would you feel... about me going to a party with him?"

"i think it's great that you're getting out there and socialising with others," she said happily.

"no! no, just hypothetically."

"you're not going to a party until you're 30," your dad hit his chest, spluttering and coughing again.

"wow, dad. you're so right," you monotonously spoke.

"ugh, he's annoying, just go to this 'hypothetical' party with this 'hypothetical' boyfriend. i'm sure it'll be fine."

"thank you, mom," you smiled. "it's when i'm in miyagi next week, by the way. the night before i come home."

you stood up from the couch, making your way back to the staircase.

"don't you have to stay on training camp grounds?" she asked.

"uhh, good question," you froze.

she held up her hands, "if they ask me, i don't know anything."

you smiled, "you're the best."
