Study Group Dilemmas
Title: Study Group Dilemmas
Pairing: Nakajima Kento x Kawashima Umika
Notes: Yeah I know I've been writing a lot of them these days it's Sachi's fault please direct all complaints to her. Sachi stop harassing me but I love you ;w;
Summary: It's kinda hard when you fall for your study partner.
"What happened to you?" Fuma asked as they were leaving practice, poking at the dark circles around Kento's eyes. Kento blushes and brushed his hand away.
"I dreamt about something..." he mumbled, adjusting the strap of his rucksack on his shoulder.
"A penny for your thoughts?"
"...our currency is yen though."
"Thank you, Meiji University student," Fuma teased with a grin, but was surprised when Kento almost tripped and blushed in embarrassment afterwards.
"Are you alright?" Fuma asks in concern. Kento nods and fixes himself before hurrying off.
"Where are you going?" Fuma calls out. Kento looks back and flashes his trademark grin.
"Study group!"
He arrives at the semi-private cafe in about half an hour. Inoo was there, a mountain of books hiding him from immediate sight from the doorway.
"Inoo-sempai!" he softly calls out. Inoo looks up and peers at him from behind his glasses, smiling when he recognizes his kouhai.
"Ah, hello there," he said, watching as Kento threw his things onto the nearest chair. "Had a good night's rest?"
Kento blushed and stammered out a "Y-yes," but Inoo didn't want to ask so he kept quiet.
"What are we studying about today?" Kento asked, pulling out a couple of thick textbooks.
"Inoo-sempai?" a voice called out. Kento turned and almost dropped his Economics book on Inoo's teacup.
"Ah, hello there Umika-chan!" Inoo greeted, while Kento focused on breathing. Inhale, inhale. Or wait was that supposed to be exhale after inhale?
"Hello Kenchan," Umika greets.
"H-hi."
Inoo then stands up, stacks his books on top of each other, and gathered them into his arms.
"Where are you going?" Kento asks, trying not to sound as panicked as he feels.
"I have a thesis meeting I have to go to," he said, smiling innocently at the both of them. "Sorry, but have fun," Inoo says, and leaves the both of them staring at his white elbows as he exits the cafe.
"...would you still like to study together? I can leave if you don't like to..." Umika said, still standing and hugging her books to her chest. Kento suddenly stands up, making Umika step back in surprise. Realizing how he must have looked, Kento cleared his throat and hurried over to pull out Umika's chair.
"If Umika-chan would like to stay, I would love to keep her company," he said, smiling at her. Her cheeks turned pink and she set her books on the table, smiling at Kento.
They both settle into their seats, Umika ordering a vanilla-caramel frappucino while Kento ordered an espresso and cookies ("to share," he had remarked when Umika giggled at his order). Opening both their Economics textbooks, they hunkered down to work (him groaning, her sighing).
It was quiet for a few moments before somebody spoke again, Before that was silence, stretching like a bubble over them. But it was comforting. It was a silence the both of them shared.
"Umika-chan...? Do you know how to solve this problem...?" Kento asked, embarrassed. She smiles and leans forward to look over the problem he was talking about, and he catches a whiff of her scent--the fresh smell of her cologne and her bath soap that reminded him of fresh sea breezes, and something that was uniquely Umika. Clearing his throat, he hoped that whatever he felt didn't show up on his face.
"Kenchan? Is something wrong?"
He starts, then shakes his head. "A-ah, it's nothing."
Both of them finished in about half an hour amidst near-tea spills and bumping knees under the table and reaching for their erasers at the same time and bumping hands.
They were both sitting back in their chairs, both sipping their nth cup of tea. They were laughing and talking about how to reach their dreams when he lets slip that he had a dream with Umika in it.
"It's not something weird, right?" she asked shrewdly, and Kento's face reddened as he furiously shook his head in denial.
"...it was... Umika-chan... in a wedding dress..."
"...Oh..."
"She was walking down the aisle..."
"...Oh..."
"She was walking down the aisle... towards me..." he mumbles, blushing deeper.
"Were you the priest? Or the best man...?
".... I was the groom, Umika-chan..."
"Oh...."
Silence. More tea? The waitress arrives to ask if they want a refill. The other nods while the other declines, then decides against it and they both get another cup of tea.
"...I wish I could have seen it for real..."
"Hm?"
"Kenchan's face as I walk down the aisle to him."
They both smile into their tea cups.
