Chapter Twenty-Two

Start from the beginning
                                    

"I've seen a change in you since you came to the cram school," he told me. "More confident like you said. A little more relaxed and definitely more open," he listed as he opened the door for me when we reached the dorm building. "More muscular from swinging swords around all day long," he said and poked me in the shoulder, causing me to giggle.

"Thanks," I said. "I thought so too." This caused him to laugh. "Well, I have to go get changed out of his stiff uniform," I complained, pulling at the tight pants.

"Okay, I'll see you a little later. Let me know if you need anything or if you do decide to let me meet your friends." I shrugged at that. He hummed in question.

"You kind of look like a delinquent," I said, putting my hand over my mouth to stifle a laugh. "The piercings, the dyed hair, super buff..." I trailed off, poking his bicep. He only sighed and shook his head.

"Maybe a little," he admitted, shrugging.

"But that doesn't matter because you're not a delinquent," I said with a smile. "They just might not think that because they've never seen the real you," I reassured. "But it's not like it matters what they think of you anyway," I said, shrugging my shoulders. "What matters is that I know the real you, and I know that you are an amazing boyfriend," I said confidently. He smiled at that.

"I'm glad that you know that. I'll see you later. Be ready by five," he said before leaning down to peck me on the forehead. I smiled as I watched it retreating form and then slipped into my room to get ready for the rest of the day.

Cards now forgotten laid on the table in front of us. We were too busy laughing to even remember what game we were playing. Elizabeth, Hannah, Alyssa, Katie, and I were all sitting around the table in the dining room of the old boy's dormitory. They hadn't been too impressed with where I was living, but I assured them I was fine and that I was having a good time at school. They had asked me if I had made friends and why there were so few people in this dorm. I had told them it was for cram school students. They had accepted that without any real problem. Alyssa has been quick to change the subject which I was grateful for.

We talked about anything and everything. We talked about the music department at my old school and how school was going. We discussed what was going on in our personal lives. We just took the time to catch up after being apart from each other for so long. We were currently laughing over something the Jackson twins, two boys in the music department at my old school, had said during band one day. There was always something interesting coming out of their mouths. It was always something new.

The moment was broken when Rin came in the room. "Hey, (Y/N), I-" He cut off when he say the other girls with me. "Uh, sorry I didn't know you were busy," he amended.

"No, it's okay. What's up, Rin?" I said, turning in my chair when I noticed he was carrying a small stack of paper and a book.

"I'm having trouble with an English paper that's due Monday and Yukio is out on the mission this weekend. I was wondering if you could help me with it," he explained. "But you're busy now. Can you help me later this evening?" he asked hopefully. "I would ask Suguro, but he helped me last time," he explained. I wanted to help, but I had plans with Bon even though I still didn't know where we were going.

"Bon's taking me out somewhere tonight actually," I said. The girls behind me erupted into hushed whispering and laughter, but I ignored it. "I'm free all today tomorrow, though," I told him. "Does that work for you?" Rin lit up at that.

"Yeah that works. Thanks, (Y/N). Have fun with Bon," he called as he slipped out the door and back into the hallway. I turned back to the girls, knowing our conversation was going to change to the topic of Bon.

"So," Elizabeth drawled our, a smile on her face. A heated blush immediately made its way to my face. "Who's his 'Bon' guy?" she asked.

"And who names their kid 'Bon' anyway," Hannah asked shamelessly. I took a deep breath and looked at my four friends in front of me. Hannah, Elizabeth, and Katie simply looked interest, but I could tell Alyssa was a little upset that I hadn't told her I had a boyfriend. I made a mental note to apologize to her later.

"Bon is a nickname he's had since he was little," I explained, clearing the easy question up. "But his real name is Suguro, and he's my boyfriend." I was suddenly bombarded with questions. 'Why didn't you tell me?' 'How long have you been dating?' 'Who asked who?' 'What does he look like?' 'Have you two kissed yet?' I was beginning to get overwhelmed by the questions, so I sat quietly waiting for them to calm down.

When they finally calmed down, I took a deep breath before speaking, their eyes trained in me expectantly. "Well," I started slowly, trying to put my thoughts together. "We started dating three months ago, that's why we're going out tonight. Suguro asked me. And I didn't tell anyone because I wanted to make sure it wasn't going to be a quick little thing and that we were both actually serious," I explained, hoping they would forget about the last two questions they asked. As always, luck was not on my side.

"So what does he look like?" Elizabeth asked earnestly. My face flushed as I thought about what I was going to have to tell them. I did not have time to answer because Bon walked into the room just then.

I wasn't sure if the good or bad. It was good because I wouldn't have to tell them, but it was bad because I wouldn't have to tell them. I couldn't prepare them for Bon or explain that he was really a good person and wasn't a delinquent. I looked over at my boyfriend, piercings and all. "Uh," I started, look back to them. I was met with wide eyes.

"This is my boyfriend Suguro. Suguro, these are my friends," I said, introducing each one of them individually.

"It's nice to meet you," he said formally, coming up to rest his large hands on my back of my chair.

"You're (Y/N)'s boyfriend?" Hannah asked blatantly. "But you're so," she gestured wildly at Suguro, "And you're so," she turned to wave wildly at me.

"You just gestured to all of me," I pointed out, a little stunned.

"Yeah, extreme opposites," Bon said with a smile, clapping me in he shoulder. "I get it. It's strange."

"I tiny nerd and a brute," I jibbed. He only sighed. The girls laughed.

"I'm going on a run, I'll see you later," Bon said, squeezing my shoulder.

"Alright, see you later," I said with a wave. I turned back to the girls and they all smiled devilishly at me. The rest of the afternoon was spent answering a million questions from my friends, but it was nice to spend time with people I had been away from for months.
