It was morning once again. At night you couldn’t sleep at all thinking about what Kawaki told you. You knew it was him but still had second thoughts. To be fair, how could someone so fragile and weak become so muscular and independent? You hate to admit but he was actually really handsome. He has a pretty face.

You got out of bed and went to go take a shower to start off your day. You locked the door behind you and stripped lazily. With your vision still foggy from the deep sleep. You turned on the shower and started your morning routine. You made sure not to leave the water too hot or else the bathroom would fog up like last time.

✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

You were finally done with everything. You felt so clean, fresh, and smooth. You even took the time to do your makeup. Which was unusual during lazy days.

*knock knock knock*

“Who is it?” You asked loud enough for the person on the other side to hear. “Are you busy honey?” Your mom asked. You opened the door to see what she wanted.

“No, why?” You replied. She dug in her pockets and pulled out a piece of paper. “Could you go grocery shopping for me? I was going to do that but I didn’t have enough time. They called me to go to work early.” She said with a pouty face, hoping she would convince you. “Yeah, can go later though? I don’t want to go out with wet hair.” You asked.

“Of course!” She replied. “I’m going to start getting ready for work now. If you’re hungry, there are still leftovers from breakfast.” After that, she went back to her room and closed the door. You weren’t feeling hungry because you were still full from all that food you ate yesterday, so you went back to your room to nap. You could use the sleep. “Just thirty minutes…” you said as you dived into the cold sheets and pillows.

✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

You woke up to the feeling like you were falling off of a building, causing you to jolt up, heavy breathing. You sat up and looked around your room, it was dimmer than usual.

Your eyes widened, realizing it might be because it was late. “I swear if it’s after two I’m going to be mad.” You said as you went over to check the time on the little clock you had on your drawer.

“6:27?!?!!” You yelled. “Does no one care enough to wake me up??” To be fair, it was just you and your grandparents in the house right now, and they normally head to bed around this time to lay down and watch tv.

“I never sleep this much! Especially when I have shit to do.” You said frustrated as you put on your sandals due to the cold floor. You left the room only to find out the house was quiet and clean. “Am I home alone again?” You asked yourself.

Your question had been answered after hearing your grandparents giggle behind their door. They were watching their usual comedy show. You smiled and walked towards the noise.

You knocked on the door, “Come in!” Your grandma said. “Hi sleepy head!!!” They both yelled in awe. “Hii, have you guys ate?” You asked.

“Yes! Your grandpa made grilled chicken. Would you like some? I’ll heat some up if you want.” Your grandma replied. “No it’s okay! I just wanted to tell you guys that I’m gonna go grocery shopping.” You said as you waved the paper in your hand. “Oh okay, isn’t it too late though?” Your grandma asked.

“I guess it is, but since I have nothing else to do, I’m just gonna go.” You replied. “Okay, just be safe.” Said your grandpa before going back to watching tv. You nodded your head and turned around, closing the door behind you.

You went straight to your room to change into a better outfit so people don’t think you were being a couch potato the whole day (You were).

You folded your clean pajamas and placed them on your bed to come back and change into them once you arrive from the store. “I guess I’m going to have to use my own money since mom didn’t leave any.” You said in your head as you put on your shoes. She can pay you back when she comes home from work.

“I’m leaving!” You yelled before walking out. It was so cold it almost made you miss the sun. “No wonder my room looked so dark and grey.” You said as you looked at the black clouds that hovered the sky.

You didn’t waste time so you went straight to the grocery store.

“Welcome in!” Said one of the workers that was stocking avocados. You nodded your head smiling at her and took out the grocery list. “Let me get all the fruits and vegetables first.” You said since you were already in that section.

As you were filling your cart, you noticed a familiar pinked hair woman. “That’s Sakura!” You thought in your head. She was looking at strawberries, trying to see which box was filled with the most deep red colors. After she picked the right package, she turned around only to see you. She looked surprised. “Y/n? Is that youuu?!!!” She asked. You walked closer to her so she wouldn’t have to scream. “Yes it’s me!” She gave you a smile and spread her arms open for a hug. “Didn’t expect to see you here shopping.” She said.

“How come?” You asked.

“Well… before leaving the house I sent Sarada over to yours to let you know you were invited for dinner tonight. Was anybody home?”

“Yeah, just my grandparents.” You replied.

She frowned. “I hope I don’t interrupt them.”

You shook your head to the left and right, “It’s okay! They wouldn’t mind!”

She smiled and put a hand on your shoulder, rubbing on it softly. “I’ll be going now. I have to go buy some things I needed left for dinner before it gets too late, see you there!!”

“Yeah, see you there!” You replied.

“Once you get home, try coming as soon as possible. You wouldn’t want to miss the games now would you?” She cooed. You nodded your head and laughed.

✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

You finished with the shopping and now you were at home. You quickly put away all the things and went to go shower again. You didn’t bother letting your grandparents know you were going over to Sakura’s house because they probably already knew. Besides, they were already sleeping.

Right now, all that you needed left was to do your makeup and to put on your shoes. Your outfit for tonight was (your choice).

Once you were done with your makeup, you went into your room to pull out your (shoes of choosing).

Before leaving, you went to the kitchen to take some snacks you wanted to bring over to avoid arriving empty handed. You were sort of excited to hang out with the group again. Maybe Kawaki could answer some questions you had in mind.

Once you walked out of the house you noticed the sky was slightly drizzling. You didn’t notice it was raining because of how quiet the raindrops were. You took a deep breath and consumed the freshness in the air. “I gotta hurry up just in case the rain gets heavier!” You said as you started to speed walk.

✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

*knock knock knock*

You had now arrived to Sakura’s house and yes, the rain did get heavier as the seconds passed by. “Oh my gosh!!! Hurry get in!!” Sakura yelled. “You didn’t bring an umbrella?!” She added.

You smiled at her nervously and said no. “Sarada! Can you bring Y/n a towel!” She yelled loud enough for her to hear. “Thank you, but I’ll dry up in no time.” You told her. “Yeah, and in no time you will catch a cold!” She replied.

“Hi Y/n! How are you doing?!” Sarada asked as she handed you a warm towel. “I’m doing good! Thank you for asking!” You replied. “I brought these snacks for everyone to eat, where can I put them?” You asked Sakura.

“In the kitchen sweetie!! Here, I’ll take them instead. You can go hang out with the others!!”

“You don’t need any help with anything?” You asked her before going. “Not right now, thank you!” You nodded your head and followed Sarada to the living room.

“Hey Y/n!!!” Yelled everyone.

“Damn, everyone is here (Chocho, Shikadai, Inojin and Himawari). You waved at them and sat on the couch next to Boruto. The spot you were sitting on was warm, meaning someone else was already sitting there.

“What are you guys playing?” You asked Boruto quietly. “To be honest, I don’t even know either. It’s like some hide and seek game.” He replied.

All of a sudden, Kawaki came out of no where and was trying to figure out why you were sitting in his spot. He looked around quickly trying to find another sear but was disappointed with the results.

“Just sit next to me and stop being dramatic.” You said in your head.

He had no other choice but to sit himself next to you. You guys locked eyes for a second before he sat. You were now squeezed between him and Boruto. “Sorry for taking your spot, I didn’t know.” You said trying to start a conversation. “Don’t worry about it.” He replied, with his eyes glued to the tv. Worth a try. Anyways, you too also turned your attention to the screen.

Boruto shifted himself around to face you, “So uhh, Y/n. Any plans over the weekend?” He asked. You squinted your eyes at him, “noo.. why?”

“I just wanted to ask if you would like to go out and eat with me.” You widened your eyes. A date? It looked like he read your expression because he also widened his eyes after the realization. “Wait!! I didn’t mean it as a date! I just wa-“

“Yes Boruto, we could go out and eat.” You teased quietly, trying to prevent anybody from hearing the conversation. He looked down in defeat with his cheeks flushed in pink. Your faces were so close it created tension that even Kawaki could feel. It grossed him out. Most of it was from Boruto because you didn’t really like him as a crush.

Don’t get yourself wrong though, Boruto wasn’t bad looking at all. He has strong masculine features and everything else but he just wasn’t your type, the one on your left was though.

Your eyes started to hurt because of how bright the tv was. Greedy Shikadai and Mitsuki wouldn’t share the controllers with anyone because one keeps killing the other, making them turn it into a challenge to see who can get more kills.

You waited a while for Sakura to call everyone for dinner. You didn’t need the towel anymore because you weren’t wet anymore, plus it was getting hot.

“Kids!! Dinner is ready!!!”

Speak of the devil. You were so hungry already, especially since this was your first meal of the day.

Everyone ran to the kitchen pushing each other against the walls. “Damn is this like normal or something?” You asked. “They like to race to see who gets there first. At their big grown age.” Boruto said as he waited for you. You stood up from the couch and turned around, questioning why Kawaki was still sitting down. He looked up at you and didn’t take his eyes off of yours. They were so hypnotizing.

You turned around to go to the kitchen.

He watched your every move until he couldn’t see you anymore. He rubbed his face and stood up, walking straight to the kitchen as well.

“Don’t eat too fast or else you guys won’t have any room left for dessert!” Sakura demanded. Everyone thanked her and started to eat. How nice of her to serve everyone. You sat down and saw that she had made hamburgers. “This meal is everyone’s favorite. I hope you love it Y/n!” Said Sakura. “I sure will! I love hamburgers too!” You replied.

✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

Everyone finished eating dinner and now moved on to step number two. Which was eating dessert. Sakura didn’t want everyone crowding the counters and potentially spilling some of it, so she brought them to the table.

Three trays full of delicious smells. It almost made you hungry all over again. “Okay, before digging in, these are vanilla and chocolate taiyakis, which most of you already know. This one is cheesecake. And finally, this one is vanilla cake with strawberry filling. Let me bring the plates, hold on.”

She quickly provided everyone with plates and silverware.

“Thank you miss Sakura!” Said everyone in unison. She smiled and sat herself down to eat as well. “You’re welcome! I’m glad I got to spend my day off with you guys!!” She said laughing out of joy. She loved the sight of seeing everyone happy, each bonding with one another.

After everyone finished eating desserts, they all migrated back to the living room to continue playing video games. You stayed with Sakura to help her clean because she had done so much already. You wiped down the table with a damp cloth, scrubbing away stubborn food residue.

You then moved over to the kitchen sink, quickly rinsing the plates with water so it could be easier for her to wash the dishes. “You’re so sweet Y/n, I’m so glad you haven’t changed a bit!” Sakura said as she was pouring leftovers in the containers. You looked back at her and smiled gently, “thank you.”

She smiled as well and turned back around to finish putting away the leftovers.

“Is there anything else you might need help in?” You asked as you dried your hands with a paper towel. “No sweetie, thank you!!” She replied.

With that, you nodded your head and walked over to the living room. Meeting the loud crowd once again.

You were starting to get sleepy. This house made you sleepy in general. Not because it was boring, but because it’s really comfortable.

You found your way back to the same spot you were sitting on earlier. And this time only Kawaki was sitting next to you. You wondered why you hadn’t asked him if he was the boy from the forest, which is strange because you always let the curiosity get the best out of you and start asking questions.

You decided to wait a couple of minutes before making a bold move.

✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

“Hey can I speak to you for a minute?” You asked him quietly. He turned his head to you with curious eyes. You stood up quietly and he understood you wanted him to follow you.

You walked outside because in order to get to a quiet place, you had to literally walk through everyone. And you didn’t want people to get curious, even though nobody probably would have cared.

It was so cold outside.

As you were walking a little further down the steps, you heard him close the door behind him.

“What is it that you wanted?” He asked.

He knew perfectly what you wanted to ask. He was waiting for you to say something actually.

You turned around slowly, and stared at him for a bit before continuing. His eyes were shiny due to the moon’s bright light. “I don’t want to be weird by asking you this question, but..” you said, stopping for a bit because of the nerves. His intense stare made it worse.

“Did you happen to run into a girl that looked like me years ago?”

Even though his face showed no emotion, something inside of him sparked. Was he getting nervous?

“Yeah..” he replied quietly. “Healed me too?” He added.

“Yes,” you said.

He sighed. Was he disappointed? Did he not care?

He was starting to examine you. Scanning his eyes around your body. “Umm?” You interrupted. “What are you doing here?” He asked.

“I live here?”

“Are you here to stalk me or something?”

“Yeah okay. Was that all you wanted to say? If so, then I’m going inside.”

He then turned around and was starting to walk towards the door.

“Wait!” You yelped. Your body moved on its own and grasped onto his hand, which was really cold by the way.

Your touch brought a familiar comfort inside him. He hated feeling like this. He believed it made himself look weak. “Don’t you care?” You asked. After all, you did only meet him for like ten minutes back then, so it’s not a surprise if he said he doesn’t care.

“I do, it’s just I don’t know what to say.”

“Thank you,” He said hesitantly and shy because he usually never thanks people. “…for talking to me about this. It couldn’t get out of my head the day I saw you at that party.”

You nodded your head and smiled slightly, following him back inside.

The night was fun, even though you and Kawaki didn’t talk at all to each other. The curious tension seemed to ease and he no longer carried that RBF face he had on.

Eventually you went back home, (really late by the way). And got ready for bed to start a new day.

You dove into your cold sheets that were waiting to be warmed by your body. You couldn’t help but think about Kawaki. Was it because you were growing a crush on him?

Maybe.
