Chapter 6

Mitsuya

"Mitsuya-san are you okay?" Akio holds my shoulder. I didn't notice that he already stepped out of the bathroom. I'm too occupied by thinking.

"Ah yeah, I'm fine," I replied. He looked at me for a while like he was figuring something out. He then suddenly leans his forehead to mine.

"Wha-" I was so surprised I leaned backward and lost my balance.

"Hey! Are you okay?

I quickly stand up. My cheeks are burning. "You... You startled me. Ever heard of personal space?"

"Sorry. I was just checking if you have a fever or something. Since we came here from the fight, you're not your usual self. I thought that you may be hurt or not feeling well or something." I stared at him for a while, He was so panicked it made me chuckle.

"I'm okay, Akio," I said with a smile.

He's a good guy, and I am just overthinking things. That's right, I'm just overthinking.

"You want to eat dinner here?"

His eyes lighten, "Sure! Let's buy some meat. I want curry." He said, smiling.

Akio bought a lot of foods, I told him not to, but he insisted. He said last time he ate dinner with us he had a great time.

If he set his mind to something, you cannot change it.

After we got back I immediately started to cook while he plays with my siblings. They are sitting on the floor playing dolls. He looks so happy. I wonder if he's happy in his own house? He always spends time here.

I caught myself smiling while looking at them. I quickly shake the thought. Akio is my Kohai, nothing more.

The next day y/n called me that she couldn't meet with me today for her measurements because she didn't feel okay.

I ask her if she needs to go to the hospital. but she just said that she's fine and it's normal. I already know what she's trying to say. Living with three girls, My mom taught me everything I needed to know so in the future when Mana and Luna grow up, I already know how to take care of them.

I told her to rest and put some heating pad on her tummy.

y/n

Mitsuya message me to meet him today. I'm not feeling well because it's the time of the month, but I have to oblige until the initiation ends. So I went to his apartment. I can't drive. That's why I decided to take the train and walk from the plaza to their place. On my way, I bought some books for Mana and Luna as gifts.

I knock on their apartment door.

"Right on time!" He said and I just nodded.

"Are you okay? You look pale." He asked.

"Yes, I'm fine." I smiled. "What are we doing today?" The pain is killing me. I want to lay in bed all afternoon.

"We'll just gonna buy some materials for my project." He said

"Oh, okay," I remember the books I brought. "Oh! These are my gift for your sisters."

"You don't have to."

"It's fine! I'm glad to make them happy." I smiled. "And besides, I got it on sale if you're worried," I added.

Mitsuya

Akio is quiet throughout the shopping. He just obliged what I said but didn't utter a single word. He also looks pale so, I decided to stop roaming around. We only bought some pins and threads. Maybe we could buy the garments some other time.

"Here, drink this" I hand him a bottle of water.

"Thank you."

"Let's call it a day. You don't look fine. Go home and take some rest." I said.

"Okay." He replied and tried to stand, but he suddenly fainted. Thankfully, I'm close so, I caught him right on time.

"Hey! Are you okay?" I said. He's not answering so I check his temperature. Thankfully, he doesn't have a fever. I put him on my back and carried him, piggyback. I don't know where he lives that's why I've decided that I'll just take him to the apartment instead.

He's light as a feather. Who would have thought that a petite guy like him could take down men double in his size? I unconsciously chuckled at the thought.

While I am walking back to the apartment. I suddenly feel his face rest on my shoulder. He snuggles them to me so close that his cheeks are now brushing to the side of my face. I immediately felt some sort of electricity flowing from him towards me.

We reach the apartment and I open the door, my siblings quickly runs towards me but I gesture to them to keep quiet. They oblige but Mana is smiling from ear to ear. I just shrugged it off.

I went to my room and carefully lay him on the bed. I stretch my back before I face him. My cheeks instantly felt hot when I saw his shirt lifted, revealing his abdomen.

Wait, why do I feel this way? I'm a man too and I have abs. It's normal to see another man's abdomen. I look away and pull his shirt down. I sit on the edge of my bed and run my fingers to my hair. This is frustrating!

After a while of thinking, I look at him. He's sleeping like a baby. Unconsciously I remove the hair that's covering his face.

I froze from what I did.

y/n

I slowly open my eyes. Did I fell asleep?

"Oh! You're awake," A voice of a girl said. She's resting her head over her hands on the edge of the bed.

"Yuzuha-chan?" I said and looked around.

"You're in Taka-chan's room. He said you passed out earlier. He didn't know where your house was so he brought you here. He went out for a while to buy dinner. He asked me to look after you." She explained.

"Oh. Thank you." I said. I was about to sit when she suddenly groped my chest. She squeezed it a few times.

"Ha! I was right. Chest binder, eh?"

"What?"

"Oh, come on, don't play dumb with me. Really? U luxury pearl shampoo? La Prairie hand cream? The moment I smelled your hair. I already knew that you were a girl.

"I paused for a while. I can't deny this anymore, she's too smart. "Please don't tell Mitsuya-san. I need to be part of Toman no matter what."

"No, silly! I won't tell him. It's fun to watch him find out himself." She chuckles like she knows something. "Besides, it's none of my business." She then leaned close and glared at me. "Not unless you hurt Taka-chan. Then it will be my business. I will crush you."

"No, I don't have any plans to hurt him or anything. I just needed to be part of Toman." I said.

"My guts say that you're nice so, I trust you."

I was about to say something when Mitsuya opened the door.

"Oh! Akio, you're awake. Are you okay?"

"Yes... Yes, I'm fine. I just stayed up last night playing online games, Maybe that was the reason why I fainted." I let out a nervous chuckle.  "I have to go." I said and quickly stood up.

"Stay here. Dinner is ready. Let us all eat together." He said.

"Yeah, Akio-kun. Let's eat." Yuzuha said with a mischievous grin on her lips.

I can't say no so, I just nod.
