"okay gentlemen , midterms are coming up, so make sure you study for test week." mr. iguro explained, ignoring the fact that there were also women in the room. the bell rang as i got up and packed up my things.

"would you like to study together?" i felt a tap on my shoulder and turned around to see muichiro. "i heard that they opened a new coffee shop nearby" he continued.

"yea sure!" we got up and he lead me across the street to a newly built coffee shop. we sat down and started to discuss mr. shinazugawa's math homework. "this doesn't make sense! how does he expect us to understand this?" i was frustrated over what we had to learn.

"let's take a break and just work on history homework, mr. rengoku's homework should be easier." muichiro opened his text book to the pages we had to read.

"in 1988..." muichiro started reading aloud. his voice was so calming. it relaxed me. how...nice...

-

"ah, you're awake." i opened my eyes to see muichiro's head above me as he played with my hair. i then noticed my head was on his lap. i must've fallen asleep while he was reading to me.

"oh sorry-"

i started to get up but he pulled me back down. "you almost hit your head on the bottom of the table. be more careful." he patted my forehead making sure that i didn't hit anything.

"thanks mui-kun."

"who the hell is this, bro?" i looked up to see- two muichiros? a second muichiro had walked in with inosuke. "oh. this is y/n. she's my friend. y/n this is my twin brother. you don't need to know him he's useless," muichiro explained to me.

"well if you guys are just friends, why are you so lovey dovey?" i got up quickly without realizing it. "we're not lovey dove-"

as i got up i banged my left eye at the bottom of the table. ouch! i sat up covering my left eye that started watering and swelling up. i turned away from everyone, trying to cover my face in embarrassment. i felt a hand behind my head as i got pulled into muichiro's chest.

"are you okay? i told you to be careful," muichiro said as he patted my head.

"y-yes," i covered my eye and hid into muichiro's chest. i felt the warmth of being in his arms. it was cozy. i wanted to stay there forever.

muichiro started to pull away from the hug in an attempt to check how my eye looked. i pulled him back into the hug and rested my head in his chest. "please let me stay here a little longer," i whispered.

he nodded and played with my hair in response. "tch. gross," muichiro's twin, yuichiro, walked out of the cafe. "come on inosuke, let's go somewhere that isn't infected with gross love germs," he continued. muichiro pulled me in closer.

"stay safe. stay with me. i don't need you getting hurt on my watch."
