Byakuya Togami x Reader

Byakuya x REAL! Reader part 3

"Grrrah! It's been too long since I've seen a body! Gather in the gym, I have an announcement! Upupupupu!" The bear laughed

"Probably a motive...but I'll do my best to make sure another murder doesn't happen! We'll all get out of here, as friends!" I tried to pump myself and Chihiro up. I held his hand and we ran together to the gym. His fingers were surprisingly strong, most likely from typing codes and other programs.

Chihiro and I were the second people to make it to the gym, Taka of course being first. Byakuya came in and he unexpectedly stood next to me. 'HECK YEAH I'VE GOT A CUTIE PATOOTIE AND A HOTTIE NEXT TO ME. IM LIVING THE X READER LIFE! LETS GO Y/N!' I mentally cheered in victory.

Byakuya looked at Chihiro, me, then our hands. Why is this dude so obsessed with my hand being held? If you wanna hold my hand, just do it coward. Wait...maybe I'm the coward, I do have two hands after all. Worse case scenario, he doesn't hold my hand and I let go feeling rejected. I move the hand that isn't in Chihiro's toward Byakuya's and snatch it quickly.

Byakuya whips his head towards me and furrows his brows. I just give him a closed eye smile. Why did I do that? Well, A) in fanfics that makes the love interest's heart go 'AWOOGA' and B) I was afraid to make eye contact with him and look at his face in general. He didn't let go of my hand though, so he must not have hated it.

"ALRIGHT YOU CRETINS! I have another motive for you!" Monokuma yelled, "I did some digging and it turns out some of you have NOT been truthful to your classmates! How could you?!" Crocodile tears fell from the robot's eyes before he pulled out envelopes with everyone's names on it. I squeezed Chihiro's hand to give him reassurance and he lightly squeezed back.

"If I murder doesn't happen within 72 hours, I'll reveal all of your secrets. Oh the embarrassment you'll feel! Ahh-hahahahahha!" He laughed, giving us each our respective envelopes. We all moved away from each other, wondering what secret Monokuma had chosen. Inside mine was written only two words.

"Y/n knows." The note was eerie enough and I did know. I had tried to find ways to reveal the mastermind but every time I was going to say something, or even thought about doing it, I got a head-splitting migraine.

Chihiro looked really nervous, he put his note in his pocket, relaxed his breathing, and looked back at me. "Y/n...do you still want to go work out?"

"If you're comfortable with it, yes." I answered, he nodded and we walked out of the gym. He stopped suddenly, "How did you know I was a boy?" He asked. I had made a plan for this in my head, so I knew how to handle this.

"...huh?" I played dumb

"I-in the cafeteria, you said 'dude'." He fiddled with his fingers anxiously

"Oh, uh, I call everyone 'dude'. But don't worry! Your secret is safe with me!" You quickly reassured him as panic formed on his face

"Huh..? Oh, t-thank you!" His confusion melted into happiness as a relieved smile broke onto his face. "I-I'll explain as we exercise. I'm planning to t-tell the others as soon I get stronger."

When we saw the gun guarding the entrance to the locker room, we decided to just get the weights and sports-clothes from the warehouse then go to Chihiro's dorm. When we were in the dorm Chihiro told me about how he got bullied for being weak, so decided to present himself as a girl to stop being teased. He also asked that I keep referring to him as a girl in front of the others until he tells, which I of course agreed to.

Both of us somewhat forgot about the killing game while we were hanging out, I think we grew a little closer today.

"Thank you for everything Y/n, I hope to be as strong as you one day!" He thanked me and I said goodbye to him as I walked out the dorm, we had worked out for a good hour so I still had some time to go back to my room, shower, and hang out with some other people.

"Why are you hanging out with her? You know she's weak in mind and body." Byakuya's condescending voice cuts me out of my planning.

"I mean, you don't seem strong body-wise, string bean." I comment

"Why do you always go to plants for nicknames?" He asks, now walking with me

"Because you're both green. Do you want me to call you Byak Togak instead?" I ask, feigning innocence

"No, I'd rather be called Byakuya." He coldly states

"Byookooyoo?" I say

"Byakuya." He says, deadpanning

"Bya-Kayak?" I pretend to be thinking

No, Byakuya." He unenthusiastically restates

"Blank Italian?" (Thanks autocorrect) I put on an Italian accent, although I sound like a terrible impression of the red-plumber-mustached-Italian-brother.

"How do you even- no just Byakuya." Byakuya's confusion turns into annoyance.

"Ok, Blonde Haired Heir, this is my dorm. See ya!" I open my door but Byakuya grabs my wrist.

"What are you doing?" He questions, almost glaring at me

"Going into my dorm..?" I say, though it comes out as a question

"No you idiot. Why did you refer to me as a," his cheeks turned pink, "h-hottie, why did you hold my hand, and why do you engage in meaningless banter that some may think could be passed on as flirting?" The more he talked, the more color spread across his porcelain face.

I panicked.

"Baby, I'm not even here. I'm a hallucination." I did some weird ghost arm thingy and ran into my dorm, slammed the door shut, locked it, and screamed my little simp heart out. WHY THE HECK AM I SO BAD AT HOLDING REAL CONVERSATIONS!

"...you ok?" I heard Byakuya ask from the other side, did Monokuma forget to make my walls sound proof?! I screamed again in frustration and embarrassment before composing myself and opening the door a smidge. "Yup! I'm ok!" I say and close it again.

For personal reasons, I will be staying in my room for the rest of the day. I wrote a note saying that I wasn't dead and slid it under the door.

I've had enough social interaction and embarrassment for today, it's nap time.
