Teruteru Hanamura x Reader - Fake-Up

REQUESTED BY: _Weird_Foox_

A/N: Enjoy some angst. I've been a bit hesitant to do another relationship angst because of the Makoto one bringing out the worst comments towards Sayaka, but here you go.

Please keep from character-bashing in this one. I know Teru isn't likeable here, but that's no excuse to be an asshole to him (or the other girl) in the comments.

Things had been... frosty lately, to say the least, with your boyfriend of three years. Ever since he opened his own restaurant, you'd seen less and less of him until he barely even called you.

You understood at first; owning and operating your own business was bound to make you busy. But after things stabilized for him, he still didn't see you -- and you were growing tired of it.

You dressed up one night and went to the restaurant, intent on seeing him in person. You still had a vague idea of his operating hours, so when you showed up around closing time and explained to one of the waiters that you were the cook's girlfriend, and they reacted in surprise at that -- you grew suspicious.

You waited around until the restaurant closed for the night and the staff was cleaning up, and then you went to the kitchen, poking your head in.

What you saw was shocking: your boyfriend was standing near the sinks, deep in a lip-lock with another girl who looked to be one of the junior chefs.

Your heart dropped into your stomach and you swallowed harshly, whatever greeting words you wanted to say completely dying on your tongue. A sick feeling of hurt and anger began rising in your chest, and as soon as he parted from the girl, stroking her cheek, you made your presence known by clearing your throat.

The two of them were startled, whirling around to see you tapping the toe of your shoe against the tile with an irritated look on your face.

"(y- y/n)," he stammered, looking from her to you. "What are you doing here?"

"I've been wondering why my boyfriend wasn't trying to see me as often anymore," you retorted sarcastically. "Well, guess I know now! Congratulations on your new relationship. I quit. We're done."

"B- boyfriend?!" The junior chef exclaimed before turning to him. "You never mentioned having a partner!"

"It wouldn't be proper workplace talk, especially with everything being so chaotic!" He defended, turning to you again. "(y/n) please, baby we can talk about this--"

"No, Hanamura." Your sharp voice made him flinch. "I've given you so many chances to see me, call me, hell even text me during your days off, but I've gotten nothing! For weeks! And don't give me that 'I was busy' excuse, because I know things have been easier to manage around here for a while now."

You glared at them, tears filling your vision. Dammit, you didn't want to cry! Not now! "It's over. See you around, Hanamura."

Without another word, you ignored his protests and the junior chef's angry shouting as you walked out of the restaurant. The pitying looks of the staff followed you as you walked out the front doors, and as soon as the cool night air hit your face, you collapsed against the side of the building and began to cry.

You'd thought this time would be different. You'd gone into the relationship trying not to be so nagging or clingy, like your ex had claimed, yet you tried to dote on him for as much as he'd let you. He'd seemed to like it; so what went wrong? Why would he do this to you?

"I never should have given our relationship another try," you spat bitterly to yourself as you shoved yourself away from the wall and began to walk home, your hands stuffed into your pockets. You blatantly ignored the buzzing of your phone. "I'm never doing this again."

A/N: Nothing like your daily dose of angst.

(TLDR: Teruteru was feeling stressed because of his restaurant and found comfort in one of his chefs, and over time lost interest in you in favor of her.)

Please tell me what you thought, feel free to request more, and I'll see you guys later!
