Takagi was calling Sumire while cooking breakfast for nishikata 

Sumire : so you two finally decided to stop the excuses and live together, I better get a niece or nephew soon 

Takagi : Sumire do you always have to do that 

Sumire : of course I have to 

Takagi : so what going on with your *AHEM* Homework? 

Sumire : shut up Rie 

Takagi : I was just joking 

Sumire : well I need to go there again today 

Takagi : hmm? 

Sumire : his mansion is way too far from our apartment so I either had to stay there for the night again or I could come back early…. 

Takagi : you could've just stayed there I mean we did all stay over for night in his house 

Sumire : I had my reasons… ( she didn't wanna stay too close to Mogami after her intense blush at the restaurant) what did you call me for 

Takagi : I need some money… 

Sumire : did you have a fight with the dork or something? 

Takagi : no why do you ask? 

Sumire : nishikata has all the money you could ever need and you're asking me? 

Takagi : well you see I need to get him a gift for his birthday…

Sumire : and you can't have him pay for his own gift, I'm broke as fuck so you asked the wrong person 

Takagi : so yeah… 

Sumire : why don't you ask houjou? 

Takagi : she doesn't have any ideas 

Sumire : how much do you need? 

Takagi : (she told the Amount) well? 

Sumire : well you see the takagawa bakery negotiated a deal with the school to provide chocolate filled donuts to the school.. If you come to help us part time for a few days then maybe uncle can pay you 

Takagi : didn't your dad own the bakery back home? 

Sumire : my uncle owns a branch of the takagawa bakery in Tokyo but….. 

Takagi : but? 

Sumire : well… The last time he tried to raise money for you it didn't go so well did it… 

Takagi : don't remind me for that 

Sumire : we want to avoid any possible misunderstandings so tell him that your gonna raise money just don't tell him what you're getting him and we should fine, that's a condition ( I really felt bad for both of them the last time… Don't wanna feel bad again…) 

Takagi : understood… 

Nishikata also woke after a few minutes 

Nishikata : good morning… 

Takagi : good morning yuki, the breakfast is almost done… 

Nishikata : what? 

Takagi : I'll just get them on the table, you can brush your Teeth… 

Nishikata : ( he went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and by the time he came the food was already served) god I'm gonna enjoy this ( he said as he picked up his plate) 

Takagi : so how does it taste? 

Nishikata : I love it… your hands literally have magic 

Takagi : ( blush) your so sweet ( he has become a lot more direct with the compliments since he returned and I love it) 

Nishikata : say do you have any plans for today? 

Takagi : not really

Nishikata : well I don't really wanna be bored…. 

Takagi : what did you do when you were bored while you were learning business anyway? 

Nishikata : pretty sure I visited the casino with Shuichi a few times… 

Takagi : ( she let out a disappointed sigh) out of all things you could do you decided to gamble… 

Nishikata : I only went three times chill 

Takagi : fair enough, anything else? 

Nishikata : well I tried cuphead again… God it's too damn difficult ( you need so much practice and I can't play it regularly to build up skill) 

Takagi : let's play again together like last time 

Nishikata : good idea that's 1 and half hours of not being bored…. 

Takagi : one and half hour?

Nishikata : that game makes me rage I'm not playing it for more than one and half hour… 

Takagi : ( she chuckled) as you wish 

Nishikata : ( he finished the plate and takagi placed it in the dish washer) 

Takagi : say… Yuki…. We Have the whole house to ourselves… 

Nishikata : yeah…. We do… 

Takagi : ( wrapped her hands around him) so what should we do now… 

Nishikata : I don't know… ( resisting his urges) 

Takagi : carry me 

Nishikata : huh? 

Takagi : carry me. 

Nishikata : ( he lifted her up like a princess) ok… now what 

Takagi : I don't I just wanted to be carried 

Nishikata : fair enough 

Takagi : (she clung to his body) why do you want to wait… it's just a few months… what difference will it make 

Nishikata : I don't even know what's stopping me… But can you please just wait till then… 

Takagi : not until I give a good effort to convince you 

Nishikata : what ( he was cut off by Takagi kissing him deeply) 

Takagi : ( she kissed him very hard while embracing him) 

Nishikata : ( he was having trouble standing up so he crashed down on the sofa with takagi now in his lap) ( he was shocked at first but after getting his grips he starting kissing back) 

Takagi : ( now in his lap she climbed onto him, she was so close that she could feel his heartbeat which was spiking up) 

Nishikata : ( he felt something between his legs but chose to ignore it to better focus on the girl on top of him) 

Takagi : ( she felt it too but decided to also ignore it as to not make him feel awkward) ( I can't make him think like I'm teasing him right now) 

Nishikata : ( he started moving towards her neck) 

Takagi : ( she stayed silent as nishikata kiss her neck) 

They stayed like this making out on the couch 

Nishikata : ( he wasn't thinking straight as if a drug had taken effect) ( his hand steadily reached her waist and her shorts) 

Takagi : ( she felt his hand near her waist and froze) ( it's the farthest they had ever gone) 

Nishikata : ( he opened the button on her shorts which hung loosely around her waist) 

Takagi : ( she felt them slipping off) ( this is it…) 

Nishikata was about to remove the shorts when something brought him to his senses

Nishikata : ( he quickly closed her shorts again) ( calm down.calm down. CALM THE FUCK DOWN) 

Takagi : ( she was very disappointed) yuki.. Why…. 

Nishikata : I'm sorry….. ( that was way too fucking close I almost did it… Why am I resisting anyway)  

Takagi : we were so close too….  ( she breathed a heavy sigh) at least I tried my best…. trying to force you when you wanted to wait…It was a mistake 

Nishikata : sorry… 

Takagi : …. 

Nishikata : ( while she was still on his lap he hugged her and pulled her closer) Im sorry for being such a coward… 

Takagi : promise me… 

Nishikata : ( he kissed her cheek) what? 

Takagi : after we're done waiting… No Excuses… 

Nishikata : I promise… I won't give any excuses… 

Takagi : ( I guess I'll just stick to waiting) ( she was disappointed that she failed tried to lighten the mood) since I am sitting in your lap like last time why don't you start the game 

Nishikata : ( he smiled and kissed her cheeks again) of course honey… 

Takagi :( she gave a weak smile) now don't over-act that much honey let's just play (better than nothing… At least I'll still enjoy this) 

They started cuphead and played the game on co-op

Meanwhile 

Sumire : ( she stood outside the door to the library) ( she couldn't understand why her heart was beating so fast so she took deep breaths to clam down) ( she slowly opened the door) 

Mogami : is that you takagawa? 

Sumire : it's me ( she slowly by him as the not disturb the carefully placed files and books) 

Mogami : let's continue where we left yesterday in a bit but first er… whats your number?

Sumire : ( a bit flustered) ( that's random) why do want it? 

Mogami : I'll send you a file, it's a report read it out to me 

Sumire : well why don't you use your phone? 

Mogami : I'll use it to view pictures of the crime scene 

Sumire : just view them on the computer 

Mogami : stop being so annoying doing it like this is faster

Sumire : ok… ( she gave him her number) 

Mogami : I swear why can't she do as told… 

Sumire : I can hear you ya know!! 

When she got his file she had an idea 

Sumire : (I remember Rie did something similar to nishikata back in middle school) why'd you send me this image? 

Mogami : what image? 

Sumire : ( she showed him her phone with the image of a model in bikinis) ( let's see how he reacts) 

Mogami : ( he calmly stared at the phone for a second) it's not mine but send it to me later 

Sumire : ( what the) what? 

Mogami : I don't like softcore that much I'm more into hardcore but I like that picture send it to me later 

Sumire : how the fuck did you just say that so casually?! To a girl no less?! 

Mogami : ( his face was amused for a little while and then went back to stone cold) I was kidding now would mind actually reading the report 

Sumire : you snobby… 

Mogami : but really send that picture to me later 

Sumire : it's enough!! ( he played me instead damn…) ( she read out the report) 

After that he typed an email and sent it 

Mogami : that's another case… 

Sumire : ( I sometimes forget that he's a detective) so can we start now? 

Mogami : sure let's just get the table 

Sumire : do you spend all day here in the library? 

Mogami : well…. At least when I'm solving cases

Sumire : and when you're not? 

Mogami : well… I Can't even remember anymore…. 

Sumire : ( he did say he engrossed himself completely in cases to escape school) what did you do for relaxing or having fun 

Mogami : I don't think I've ever… ( his expression suddenly became gloomy) 

Sumire : ( she placed her finger and stopped him from talking) I understand sorry for making you sad… 

Mogami : let's just finish the homework already 

They both were studying, well it was mostly just Mogami teaching her 

Sumire : finally… its over… 

Mogami : good for you I guess.. 

Then suddenly the earth shook  

Sumire : ( she screamed) ( an earthquake?!) 

Mogami : ( he screamed louder and held onto Sumire for dear life) 

Meanwhile for nishikata and takagi 

Nishikata : ( they were just on the verge of killing a particularly difficult boss in cuphead when the earth shook) what the-

Takagi : YUKI!! ( she clung to him and he covered her as if to protect her) 

Nishikata : ( few seconds later) it's fine it's over now 

Takagi : thank god….

They both looked back the screen and a black screen with the words YOU DIED plastered with white stared back at them 

Nishikata and takagi : FUCK IT ALL I'M DONE WITH THIS GAME!!!!!!! 

Back to Mogami and sumire

Mogami : ( he was still holding onto her) 

Sumire : ( he was really close and she was blushing) um Mogami? The earthquake is over 

Mogami : … 

Sumire : Mogami? 

Mogami : T-taka-gawa….. 

Sumire : ( he's shivering!!) what happened?! 

Mogami : D-do you s-see my cane…. 

Sumire : your cane? ( she saw his cane under the table) wait just a sec 

Mogami : ( he shivered and curled up into a ball) 

Sumire : ( she pulled out his cane and handed it to him) there 

Mogami : ( he hugged his cane for a few seconds and then calmed down and got up like normal) …. 

Sumire : What the heck was that? 

Mogami : can you please tell no one? 

Sumire : oh… I see… ( since he is partially blind almost completely blind in low light he needs his cane…) 

Mogami : ( he calmed down) looks like the earthquake was small… 

Sumire : ( If you take his cane away he acts like a scared child…. That's his weakness…) its didn't last that long… 

Mogami : …. ( he didn't really know what to say) 

Sumire : ( wait a minute… Taking the cane away from him is like taking a wheel chair from a disabled person…. I can't do something as shitty as that…) don't worry I can keep secrets 

Mogami : that's helpful to know… 

Sumire : ( trying to find a subject to talk about to alleviate the awkwardness) so can I ask you something? 

Mogami : sure 

Sumire : why do you not use the honorifics with my name? 

Mogami : well you don't use the honorifics for me either… 

Sumire : I just do that because you do it, soo why? 

Mogami : I like to mock you because you're annoying 

Sumire : I was kind of expecting this conversation to not roll back to me being "annoying" 

Mogami : ( he chuckled) since I was partly raised in Britain there everyone uses your first name and in Japan everyone uses last name with honorifics so I just combined the two…. 

Sumire : makes sense… 

Mogami : but I also do it to mock you… 

Sumire : of course… ( am I really that annoying bitch….)

Mogami : ( I think I went a bit too far then…) well you aren't just an annoying bitch… 

Sumire : ( she braced herself for insults) ( she was never the best of people and she knew many people disliked her blunt nature) 

Mogami : … I really admire you…. 

Time seemed to stop as she took the words in one at a time 

Sumire : What? ( there was a prominent blush on her face now) 

Mogami : ( he was too far away to notice the blush) I said i really admire you…

Sumire : are you joking? I mean you're one of the smartest people I know and you always call me annoying too, then how are you supposed to admire me? 

Mogami : you are a bit special.. 

Sumire : (special?!) 

Mogami : you have the ability to speak your mind, you don't let others push you around… 

Sumire : huh?

Mogami : the ability to stand up for yourself, to stand for others if needed ( she tried to help me against the bullies even though we were 1 to 4) ( his stone poker face came of for a second or two…) these are qualities I will probably never have… I Really admire and respect you for that… 

Sumire : ( she was now completely red) ( she doesn't normally notice her own blush but it was so powerful that even she noticed without a mirror, her normally pale skin was completely red) excuse me…. (she quickly rushed to the nearest bathroom to wash her face) 

Mogami : guess I messed up… I'll apologise later …. 

Sumire : ( she clenched her chest heart was beating very fast) ( calm down Sumire calm down….) ( she noticed her deep blush…) ( Do I really…. No… we've only known each other for like 2 months…) 

After washing her face she came out and saw Mogami back on with his stone cold poker face 

Mogami : I'm sorry… I am told I make things awkward…. ( he thought he offended her is some way) 

Sumire : no it's fine… ( that was the most genuine and sincere compliment I have ever received I can't handle this) 

Mogami : well I guess you should leave now… 

Sumire : huh?

Mogami : I mean your apartment is pretty far from here right ( started to pick up books and stack them on the bookshelves again…) 

Sumire : I can't just leave you like this, I'll help with the cleaning… 

Mogami : you don't need to… ( he still felt like he'd offended her) how will you get back home? 

Sumire : I guess I'll stay here tonight, ( she remembered how he said he hasn't had fun in a long time) let's go out somewhere tomorrow… 

Mogami : tomorrow? 

Sumire : it'll be fun I'll call Rie and nishikata too we can all have fun… ( I need to give something back for that compliment I can't get over) ( I've been told that I looked pretty and that's why I apparently get boys around me… I never really liked any back in middle school as everyone was only for looks… it didn't get any better here at Totomi… but this guy… He Doesn't have any idea if how I look he straight up calls me annoying… that's why his compliment means so much) 

Mogami : I'll just be a bother… also I'll clean it myself you can really leave 

Sumire : just call me annoying like you normally do and let me help 

Mogami :..… thanks… ( he felt relieved)
