[3rd P.O.V]
Taro and Ayano were at the entrance at Akademi, the gym teacher was looking cheerful as ever. He looked over at his love, she was smiling sweetly at him.

The brunet smiled as well, the boy didn't realize before she had so much effect on him and that power also made her dangerous for his future schemes, he had to keep an eye on her though he already knows her daily routine.

They walked to their lockers and changed their shoes, the young woman let out a chuckle at the thought she wasn't in a club, she wanted to shift things up a bit.

She then walked over to Taro while he placed his indoor shoes on the floor putting them on, later looking up to see Ayano waiting for him; he took up his outdoor shoes and place them in the locker.

Without warning his breathing stop and his eyes widened as the brunette wrapped her arm around his, panicking wasn't an accurate word for this situation; he didn't use this much physical contact with her.

She smiled sweetly at him gaining attention from other students they were staring at the two as they walked off to the school plaza not breaking their linked arms.

Some whispered and giggled, thinking that the two made a cute couple while others just minded their own business. Both young adults sat at the fountain, the younger girl placing her head on Taro's shoulder, opening her book.

Taro was enjoying this but also overheating from being so close. He was trying his hardest not to lose control, remember what Taro said about the power Ayano possessed over him.

"Hey Senpai," he snapped out of his train of thought, he hummed in response. "Do you want to join a club?"

Taro looked confused for a minute even though he understood what she was saying, he never took an interest in anything. What's creepy is he knew what Ayano's interests were, he shrugged closing his eyes in the process.

The brunette then looked up she hummed for a while, thinking, she let out a gasp, an idea came to mind. She looked over with an enthusiastic look in her eyes.

"Why don't we be in the same club?" She gleamed, he only nodded he didn't mind at all. She clapped her hands together in delight, "Instead of the reading session today let's go on a stroll around the school to decide which one we want to join,"

That's not a bad idea, "Oh alright then," he tilted his head to the side a little "Yay!" She rose both arms in the air like a child, Taro chuckling at her behavior.

"Ayano," another voice called out, that was a certain someone Taro wasn't very fond of, Osano was standing in front of them looking back at her and Taro. He grumbled under his breath, the brunet only stared at him lifelessly in response.

"Hey Osano," she smiled brightly getting up, "I'll be right back Senpai," she waved at him, he shifted his attention to her then nodded.

[Ayano's P.O.V]
Osano and I took our time walking over to a corner of the plaza; "Who's he?" Osano asked "He's my friend," "So when did you two meet?" I tilted my head in confusion, why did that matter?

He then did what sounded like a nervous chuckle and quickly changed the subject, "So I was curious, what's that book your always reading?" I smiled then looked at the book in my hands then back at Osano, "This? It's a very special book, my brother gave it to me,"

"What's it called? What's it about?" He questioned, "If you're that interested I'll be willing to let you borrow but you have to promise to take good care of it," I held up the book not taking my eyes off him, "Wait really? You'd let me- I mean of course I'll take care of it that's obvious," he puffed out his cheeks.

So Cute. "Alright, I'll let you borrow it, return it to me when school's over ok?" I held out the book, "Yeah I will," he took it from my hands.

"I'll read it at lunchtime," "You could read by the fountain it's relaxing," I suggested, he nodded then we headed off in separate directions, Taro was sitting by the fountain peacefully reading his book.

I smiled and sat down putting my head back on his shoulder, reading with him. He tensed up under me then soon relaxed, I looked up at him he had a small smile on his face. I chuckled softly, he seemed so happy.

[3rd P.O.V]

The bell rang indicating it was time for class, Taro pouted slightly, he wanted to spend more time with his dearest. The brunette got up first, the young man followed in suit, "I'll see you after school," she turned to him, he nodded as she walked away, waving back at him.

He heard.

He heard the conversation between Ayano and that thing.

"I have plans for you, Osano"

The moment Ayano left she took everything with her, now it was just

Dark And Hollow

As Always

The brunet then made his way to class with a blank look on his face.

[Osano's P.O.V]
The bell rang for lunchtime to begin.
That boy...with Ayano, I can't stop thinking about him.....I don't want her to be around him.

There's something.....off about him.

I shook my head then got up out of my seat and made my way to the fountain.

[3rd P.O.V]
Taro got up out of his sit then swiftly exited the class, when he arrived in the plaza he saw that it already started reading he waited behind the closes tree but was unable for Osano to spot him.

After a few minutes, he heard "Here's a good stopping point," Osano marked the page he was at, placing the book down then getting up to stretch a bit.

"Just a quick stretch," the redhead said then walked over to the other side of the fountain. As soon as he was, the brunet made his way over to the book, he pushed it into the fountain.

As so as the job was completed he walked away from the scene to find Osana.

He made his way to the rooftop with his hands in his pockets, there he found a blushing Osana. "Who's the lucky guy?" Osana flinched then realized it was just Taro. She blushed even harder when he asked, the brunet sat beside her.

"I can't tell you yet," she squealed, Taro sat beside her and gave her a small smile. "It's Kyuji Konagawa," someone whispered from the other side of the wall, "RAIBURU!" Osana turned red as a tomato.

✨After school✨

[Ayano's P.O.V]
I heard the bell rang then got up to meet Osano in the plaza. I arrived to see him waiting and a little...sad?, "Hey Osano," he turned to me as I stood in front of him.

"Did you like the book?" He was quiet for a moment, "Ayano...the book I-" he held out the book, it was.... ruined.

My eyes widen slowly taking it from his hands, "Osano..." I looked down at the book "How-How did this happen?" "I-I don't know, I'm sorry," he held his head low, "I'll see you tomorrow Osano, goodbye," "Ayano wait for I-"

I didn't wait for him to finish and just went to go look for Senpai, I was upset but I don't think I can stay mad at him for longer than a day.

I looked around the plaza first he wasn't there, probably in the library. Heading up to the library I found him there sitting peacefully at where the librarian would sit, upon seeing him a small smile appears on my lips, some of the angry melting away.

"Hey Senpai," he looked up then smiled, "You ready?" I asked, he hummed.

We both left the library together.

_______________________________________

"I don't wanna join the Martial Arts Club," I huffed crossing my arms, I could hear Senpai chuckling behind me.

We were still strolling but not looking at clubs rather discussing which we would join. It was comforting to do this and for some reason, I felt incredibly safe at his side.

I slowly smiled at the thought; I was ahead of him so I slowed down for him to catch up. Once he did he glanced over at me but only for a quick second.

So I asked, "What do you think of the Drama Club?" Believe it or not, he has a neutral opinion on all the clubs, amazing right?

He shrugged, placing his hands behind his back then crossed his hand over his wrist, walking calmly. [Kinda what Kuroko does except a bit calmer]

I'm amazed at how the air around him is so calm all the time while little old me gets caught up in drama from time to time. "Would you like to join?" Answering a question with a question, huh? Alright.

"Hm, it's one of my top choices," I replied he looked over at me and I returned his gaze. I never realized how beautiful his eyes were, I quickly looked away trying not to seem like a creep.

"I don't think I'd fit in tho," shaking my head, staring at the fountain we slowly approached. "Let's stop here," I suggest then sit on the bench.

After he sat down staring at his shoes, "Is everything alright Senpai?" He blinked but said nothing, I poked him gently quickly snapping him out of his trance slowly looked over at me.

"Yes. I'm still here," I smiled with him chuckling in response, I took out my phone. "It's 5:40, I should go before my brother starts getting worried,"

"I guess I'll do honors of walking you home," a light blush covers my cheeks, I'm not sure why. "Yeah, you've been blessed," looking over at him, a smirk rested on his lips.

Getting up he held out his hand for me to take which I did, "Why to thank you, such a gentleman,"

We both giggled making our way off to the lockers to change our shoes, afterwards, he held out his arm for me to take, chuckling at his silly gesture I gladly took it, walking home enjoying each other's company.

"Mm, let's continue tomorrow ok," I glanced at him, he nodded. "Can I have your number?" I asked he gave me his phone and I typed in my number then placed his number in my phone.

He's amazing....he is
