the ordinary guy (Saiki X Satou)

I am not a stalker.

Just because I'm watching his every step and always taking notes doesn't mean I'm some kind of obsessive stalker. That moronic idiot Toritsuka said it was almost like a "crush"....good grief. I don't have time for stupid nonsense like that, but I do have to admit that I kinda admire him a bit, a lot actually. He is all that I wish to be, Ordinary and boring. If only I could be just like him.

while on my way home from school today, somehow managing to avoid Kaido, Nendou and the others, I saw Satou walking outside the gate with a dejected look on his face. 'How do I tell my friends?' Is what i heard in Satous mind. 'Tell your friends what' I thought to myself. I decided to follow him today too, just in case something like the strange man who tried to sue him happened again.

He walked to the park that was close to the school which people sometimes hang out at after school, but it was quite empty today. He sat down on a swing and looked down at his feet. 'How do I tell my friends that I like men?' I heard Satou think to himself. Well now I know what was bothering Satou so much. 'Does this make me weird?' He thought to himself once again.

No. If anything it somehow makes him even more ordinary. Sexuality doesn't make someone special, nor does it make anyone less special. But seeing his normal face in distress makes me feel....weird. "Saiki-kun is that you?" Satou said walking towards me. Shit, how didn't I notice? "You're Saiki from class ∭, right?" He asked me.

I can't believe that he noticed me. After all this time, all these attempts, He finally noticed me. Umm...Yes... and you're Satou, right? I communicated to him acting as if I hadn't been trialling him for a while now.

"Yeah, didn't see you there..." He said and chuckled awkwardly.

I could say the same for you Satou-kun haha... It was genuinely pretty awkward just standing there. I could hear Satou thinking the same thing, he looked up at me hesitating to say what I already knew he was going to say.

"Hey, would you maybe wanna hang out or something?" Knowing that he was gonna say that, I was just going to turn him down because I have a habit of ignoring and turning people down, But it was Satou and I've waited for this moment for several months now.

Yeah, sure. I-I know this really good cafe around the corner. He smiled that normal yet beautiful smile of his and nodded. We went to Café Mami together, I was not worrying about Mera bothering us because I knew that she was at one of her other part-time jobs.

The manager, who the author never gave a name to came up to us and asked us what we wanted to order. I order coffee jelly as usual while Satou ordered a caffelatté, How ordinary of him.

Excellent choice Satou-kun. I told him smiling, it feels weird.

"Really?" He said blushing while putting his hand on the back of his neck. "Most people usually think that my choices are boring."

There's nothing wrong with choosing what you're used to. I reassured him.

"Yeah, you're right." He said cheerfully. "Thank you Saiki-kun!"

Oh please, call me Kusuo. I don't know where that came from but, I just said it.

"Well then you can call me Hiroshi, Kusuo-kun." He continued to smile.

After we drink and eat the things we ordered, Just as we were about to part our ways I heard him thinking: 'Man, kusuo-kun is kinda cute.'

That made me smile.
