■3rd Person POV■
Early morning in Shutoku, students filled every corner of the school areas. Those students who has morning practice are all with their club. The student who came early to copy their friends homework are all moving their hands at the speed of sonic.
Then there are those who just came early to talk with their friends from other classes or take peek at their crush.
Y/N is walking in the hallway, changing her shoes to her indoor shoes. She then rummage her bag and look for her phone. She check on her phone and see the text from Kazuhiko.
Sender: Ozawa Kazuhiko
I'll be at school in 3 minutes, please wait in the locker.
Y/N closes her locker and then someone call her name. She looks back and see Kazuhiko who's trying to catch his breath.
Y/N: Ozawa kun...
Kazuhiko: huft... good... morning... huft...
Y/N: were you... running?
Kazuhiko: ah... no... um right... I kinda accidentally typed I'd be here in three minutes... while I'm still about 10 minutes away when I texted you...
Y/N: but... you could have just text me again, and tell me you'll be here in ten minutes...
Kazuhiko stares at Y/N as the girl looks at him. Suddenly his face turns red, he's embarased and feel stupid because he didn't think of texting her and correct the time he'll be arrive.
Kazuhiko: gosh... I feel like an idiot...
Y/N laughs at this and Kazuhiko can't help but steal a glance at her face. Y/N the notices that Kazuhiko brings a guitar on his back.
Y/N: is that... a guitar?
Kazuhiko looks at his guitar case and nods.
Kazuhiko: oh, right... I'm in the music club... and I'm in a band... we'll be practicing later...
Y/N: and you ran here with that? Oh my Ozawa kun...
Kazuhiko: it's alright... I'm pretty strong you know..
Kazuhiko trying to appear strong and Y/N smiles at this. Kazuhiko then hands Y/N her bags with the books in it. Kazuhiko thanks Y/N. Then the two decided to walk together to the 2nd year classes on the third floor. Though Kazuhiko will head to the fourth floor to put his guitar in the music room.
Takao and Midorima have just finished their morning practice and head to their class. Just when the two just about to climb the stairs.
Y/N: ahaha... really? He doesn't look like a kid who'll throw a tantrum when being told to eat veggies...
Kazuhiko: it's true... that boy sure is well behaved for a kid around his age... but, he's still a kid after all so yeah... sometimes a war can't be avoided...
Takao looks up and see Y/N walks side by side with Kazuhiko. He recognized Kazuhiko as the guy he saw at the mall. Y/N looks so happy conversing with Kazuhiko as they walk together.
Takao feel a pang on his chest and he clench his hands. Midorima notice this and sighs.
Midorima: Takao... I'll be going, if you want to stay here like a statue, it's up to you...
Takao gets back to his sense and shook his head. He then continue his walk to the class with Midorima. There he sees as Y/N waves her hand at Kazuhiko who climbs the fourth floor.
Kazuhiko: so, see you around L/N...
Y/N smiles at Kazuhiko and replies.
Y/N: see you, Ozawa kun...
With that Y/N walks to her class, not noticing a pair of dark bluish eyes staring at her. Y/N ets inside her class, vanishing from Takao sight.
The dark haired boy was still looking at Y/N's class when someone hugs his arm. Takao looks at his side where Fuyumi links her arm with him.
Fuyumi: good morning, Kazunari...
Takao: ah, good morning Fuyumi..
Fuyumi then told Takao that she'll have gymnastics practice after school so she can't watch him practicing as well, which doesn't really bother him.
Fuyumi pulls Takao to walk into the classroom and Takao follows her. He take another glance at Y/N's class before going inside.
How he feels that there's and empty spot...
That was filled whenever he sees Y/N...
And when she's out of his sight again...
The emptiness grew even more...
■Y/N's POV■
I sit on my chair and puts my belongings in my desk drawer. As I'm pulling the book for our first class, Nonoka suddenly came and bang the table with her palms.
Y/N: uh... good morning Nonoka!
Nonoka looks excited as she suddenly leans in and sit next to me.
Nonoka: forget about morning greeting, who's the cutie from earlier? Ah how happy I am when I finally see my girl moves on to another-hopefully-not a cheating-bastard kind of guy~
Eh? Ozawa kun?
I immediately waves my hands and shook my head.
Y/N: it's a misunderstanding, Nonoka... we're... he and I are not like that, um he's my new friend...
Nonoka: hmmm, Y/N rule number 1 that I've just made... don't put a cute guy in your friend zone... note that!
Y/N: N-Nonoka...
I tell Nonoka about what happen yesterday when I met Tamahiko kun and then Ozawa kun who's also studying here.
Nonoka: that was actually like a start of a romance story you know... the girl found a kid, and she help him, he's reunited with his brother, and then in the end the girl amd the brother live happily ever aft-
Y/N: Nonoka!
Oh my how I'm so embarrassed to hear that. Nonoka could be quite the story teller. She has been telling me to go find a new boyfriend and forget about Takao san soon, but I jut don't think O can do that this soon. And moreover, I still don't want to be in relationship again.
Nonoka: still, just telling though... a change of scenery would be nice... after watching a basketball game... now watching a gig.
Y/N: N-Nonoka
Nonoka just laughs as she seems pleased to teases me. The bell rings and Nonoka goes back to her seat. As for me, I'm staring at the book that I just bought together with Ozawa kun.
Moving on...
The inage of my time with Takao flashes in my mind, and I internally shook my head.
No...
I can't just look for someone for a rebound, that's just mean. Moreover, I still don't want to be in a relationship yet. I'm scared of being betrayed by the person I loved again.
Time passes, and it's afternoon already. The bell rings, sign that school is over for the day. I gather my stuff and then my friend from art club picks me up.
I'm part of the art club, and on our club time we tend to paint together. I walk to my club when I meet Ozawa kun on our way.
Kazuhiko: oh, L/N... going home now?
Y/N: good afternoon Ozawa kun, actually I'm heading to the art club...
I lift my other bag filled with painting supplies.
Kazuhiko: whoa, you're an artist I see... let's walk there together. Our clubs room are in the same floor...
With that Ozawa kun and his friend, joined me and my friend to head to our club room together.
Kazuhiko: L/N, what time will your club ends?
Hm? What time is it...
Y/N: we usually paint until 05.00 p.m, why are you asking?
Ozawa san looks at me with a smile.
Kazuhiko: wanna walk to the station together? And, maybe you want to meet Tama...
Tamahiko kun..
Ozawa san told me that he always picks Tamahiko kun in their parents fabrics store. Meeting Tamahiko kun might be fun, he's such a sweet child. Moreover, Nonoka has club activity until 7 today.
Y/N: okay, let's walk to the station together...
Ozawa san looks happy and nods.
Kazuhiko: oh, great... well, if your club finish before mine, can you wait in your club room for me...
Y/N: okay...
After that we both get into our own club room.
Today we're painting an object brought by one of our friend. The thing that we will be drawing today is a teddy bear.
Dub dub
At the sight of the teddy bear in the center of the room makes me remember the keychain I got from Takao kun.
~flashback
I was on a stroll at the shopping district with Takao san after watching him play in a tournament.
We decided to eat something sweet because Takao says he needs some sweet to charge his energy, and so we're heading to a cafe that sells pancake.
Actually, yesterday Takao confessed to me and we're together. Basically this is our first date together as a couple.
As we walk and pass an arcade, I see a clawing machine and my eyes caught a cute bear keychain.
Y/N: ah... how cute...
Takao looks at me and then looks at the clawing machine.
Takao: which one?
Y/N: ah... the black bear..
Suddenly Takao walks closer to the clawing machine and takes a coin out.
Takao: okay that will be yours...
Y/N: eh?
Takao plays the clawing machine and on his third times he finally got the keychain. Takao hands the keychain to me.
Takao: got it~
My heart warmed as he gives me the keychain he won for me. He puts the soft bear keychain on my hands.
Takao: though, I was rather surprised that you like this one when there are other with lighter color... like that light brown one...
It's because...
Y/N: it's... because it's just like Kazunari...
Takao san looks at me and I tell him why this one caught my attention...
Y/N: b-because... I think Takao san is like a bear... y- yoi, earlier on the game when you're preventing your opponents to score with your hands up, you... look just like a bear... and this one... this bear key chain is black... just like your hair... that's why I-
I stop talking as my words were cut the moment Takao presses his lips to mine.
Takao: that's enough... no more saying something cute like that or you'll ended up being a bear's prey...
As I was flustered, Takao takes the keychain from my hand and hang it on my bag.
Takao: then this way... it's just like I'll be around you all the time...
Y/N: I'll treasure it...
~ends of flashback
It reminds me of the keychain that no longer in my possession.
I've... threw it away... threw it at his face...
I look at my bag where there's still a loop hook on it, the remnant of that keychain.
I tried to shook those tough away and start making sketch.
The club finally ends, and them as my friends start leaving the room, I see Ozawa san looks inside from the doorway.
I immediately gather my stuff and approach him.
Kazuhiko: my brother will be happy to ride the train with you...
I'm glad I meet new friends this way I'll get to interact with more people and try to forget what happened with Takao san.
With that, Ozawa and I walk together to the locker room, and head to stop by the Ozawa's store.
■Takao's POV■
Midorima and I are a bit late to practice today, because our group decided to fix our project that will be submitted tomorrow.
We now walk together to the gym. As we reached the entrance hallway lockers area, my heart feels like it stopped beating for a sec.
There, in fronts of Y/N's locker, Y/N is putih om her shoes, while the guy from this morning waits for her.
Who is he? Have they knew each other for long?
Y/n has put on her shoes and the two walks together.
Takao: are they... walking home together?
Midorima: that's one of your business Takao...
I watch as Midorima walks to his locker. I look at where Y/N is, she looks happy as she talks with that guy.
The image of me walking next to her came to mind. I used to be the one who walk right next to her as she smiles at me.
Midorima: Takao... hurry... you have no right to be hurt by the sight of her with another guy... you did this to your self...
Midorima stares at me and I clench my hand.
The truth in his word... stabs me like a dagger...
We head to the gym and start practicing. During our break I couldn't help but to think about what is the relationship between Y/N and that guy.
I'm... jealous aren't I...
Y/N's face as she smiles at me while calling my name came to mind
I feel like I deserve this...
Earlier in our physics class, we talked a little about Newton's Third Law. When there's an action, there's will be an equal reaction.
What is happening to me right now...
Is similar with that law in a way...
When there's an action...
There's an reaction...
I did something bad to Y/N...
And now...
I feel bad for not having her around me...
