Monday 7:37 AM

A couple days later, (Y/N) found herself back at school. She opened her locker and was surprised to find an envelope. Reaching in, she took it out and stared at it curiously.

I'll check it later.

(Y/N) place it into her pocket before changing her shoes and making her way up the stairs. Once she reached her classroom, she sat down at her desk and pull the envelope. She slowly opened it up and pulled out the piece of paper that was in it.

A note?

She looked into the envelope, hoping she didn't miss anything. Seeing it was empty, she moved her attention back to the note, unfolding it with care she stared at the words with curiosity.

Hi (L/N),

This is a bit weird, but I was hoping you'd want to be closer. You don't have to, but I hope you can swing by my classroom during lunch.

-Kohaku, class 3-5

There was a cute cat sticker pasted onto the corner, making (Y/N) smile a bit. But she was still quite uneasy, the thought of eating with a stranger she didn't know that well freaked her out.

But he wants to be friends.

(Y/N) thought about the way she treated Kuroo, sure they weren't that close right now. But he was still a very nice guy that just wanted to be friends.

Maybe he's just like Kuroo.

(Y/N) folded the piece of paper back together, putting it back into the envelope. The then placed it into her school bag and began contemplating whether or not she should go hang out with Kohaku. She briefly remembered him from the day she returned Kuroo's scarf.

She stared out the window, deep in thought. For some reason, she had a bad feeling about Kohaku and didn't want to to meet him. So distracted, she didn't hear Kuroo enter her classroom. The tall volleyball player greeted Kai and then began walking over to the girl.

"Is Santa Claus outside or something?" He asked, chuckling. Hearing his voice, (Y/N) turned her head and watched as Kuroo sat down in the empty seat next to her.

"Oh, K-Kuroo! Good morning." (Y/N) quickly greeted.

"Good morning, (Y/N)." Kuroo replied back, smiling at her. (Y/N) fiddled with her fingers a bit, her thoughts still occupying her.

"Thank you for the macaroons. They were really nice." Kuroo complimented, referring to the gift (Y/N) gave him on Saturday.

"No problem, it was your birthday after all." (Y/N) smiled nervously.

"So, what's wrong?" Kuroo asked, resting his cheek on his hand. He had noticed all the fidgeting and the nervousness in her eyes.

"Hm? Nothing, nothing's wrong." (Y/N) answered,"....why aren't you talking to Kai?" (Y/N) questioned not used to this. Usually Kuroo would just talk to Kai and just say good morning to her.

"Just a change of pace." Kuroo shrugged off, not really knowing the reason either. He just felt an urge to sit next to her and talk to her.

"...is that good?" (Y/N) asked.

"Hm?" Kuroo hummed in confusion.

"A change in pace, is that good?" (Y/N) clarified, her eyes suddenly on Kuroo. Kuroo stared at for a moment, fixated on her eyes.

So pretty.

"....sometimes." Kuroo answered, making (Y/N) nod her head.

"Thanks." She mumbled, giving him a smile.

Am I okay?

"Uh, Kuroo, you should go back. It's almost time for class." (Y/N) warned.

"oH."

Monday 12:09 PM

(Y/N) waved goodbye to Kai as he walked to the cafeteria. She already told him about the letter and that she was going to try and make a new friend. Nervously she approached the other classroom. The door was already open and to (Y/N) surprise, Kenma was standing there.

"Oh, (L/N)." Kenma exclaimed, spotting her.

"Hi, Kenma." (Y/N) greeted, waving a bit as she did this another figure walk out of the room. The tall volleyball player stared at (Y/N) surprised as well.

"(Y/N)? What are you doing here?" Kuroo asked.

"Oh, uh, I'm meeting someone." (Y/N) explained.

"Really? Who-"

"(L/N)-san! You came."

All of their eyes turned to the source of the noise. Kuroo's eyes scanned the person before him, it was his classmate Kohaku.

Kohaku?

"Ah, hello." (Y/N) greeted back.

"Come on, lets go get some lunch." Kohaku exclaimed, grabbing the girl's hand and dragging her to the cafeteria. Kuroo watched as she was whisked away.

Bastard.

.....

Bastard?

Kuroo didn't know why he felt so uncomfortable. It was just Kohaku and (Y/N), his classmate and his friend. They were hanging out just like any other couple of highschoolers. Kenma watched as his friends expression turned from jealously to confusion.

"Kuroo, you really are dumb." Kenma muttered, making Kuroo even more confused. The second year began walking after the other two to the cafeteria.

"What? Hey! Kenma!" Kuroo called out, walking after his friend. Though, he couldn't shake the uncomfortable feeling off at all.

Why am I so bothered?
