⇢︎ Filler Chapter || A detour from the plot
⇢︎ Y/n spending his time with the love interests
"What do you mean you don't know?" Y/n questioned as he heavily glared at Karma, "You said you had a plan for today."
Karma chuckled mischievously as he carelessly shrugged, "I don't know~ I just wanted to see you, honestly," He said, "If I have to be real, I didn't know that you would actually take up on the offer, so that's why we're here."
"You are so annoying..."
Karma and Y/n were currently just walking around in the open mall district. Karma was the one who asked Y/n to go with him to hang out. At first Y/n was hesitant. However, he agreed either way and wanted to get away from Shiro. Karma didn't really think that Y/n would take up on the offer, he didn't think this far in his plan.
Y/n sighed, "Well, since we're here, how about we go to the nearby arcade that had just opened?"
Karma threw his arm over Y/n's shoulders, making the shorter stumble a bit, "Won't you look at that? The scaredy cat is finally making decisions for himself! Talk about character development!"
"I swear to god, do you want me to leave?"
"Nope! I'm just having fun, I swear."
"I will kick you."
"Rude..."
Karma and Y/n talked, more like bickered, back and forth as they both made their way to the new arcade. When they entered, they noticed that it was very bright with neon colors and the sounds of different games coordinated with each other.
"I dib getting the tokens first," Y/n claimed as he made a beeline to the front counter.
Karma blinked for a second at the sudden disappearance of his friend, "Wait a minute! You didn't even give me time to think!"
"You don't think."
"Well now you're just lying."
Playing at the arcade was fun for Y/n ad Karma. Y/n got to play some shooting games and got to get out of the house and away from Shiro, while Karma kept getting the high score of every game in the building as he also got to spend his time with someone he liked.
Karma liked Y/n ever since Nagisa introduced him into the small 'friend group'. The small nervous ticks and fidgets Y/n does was adorable to Karma, and when Y/n slowly got used to him, he started to become more confident. Karma likes it when Y/n is confident, he gets to tease him about it.
Karma isn't one for love, most of the time. He doesn't find attraction in most love whether it would be by a girl, boy, or someone in between. However, when it came to Y/n, Karma is more than willing to buy the whole world for him.
When he first learned that Shiro existed and when Y/n would act strange around him, he just knew that Y/n was in trouble. Honestly, Karma wanted to spend more time with Y/n jsut to make sure that Y/n knew that he will always be with him.
Karma likes Y/n, there was no lie. He liked Y/n's small laugh. He liked how Y/n would unconsciously care and worry for him. How Y/n would tend to him when he got into fights. Just, everything about Y/n just made Karma's heart flutter.
"Karma!" Y/n's voice broke Karma out of his mind, "Are you alright?"
Karma blinked for a second. He turned to Y/n and then to the claw machine in front of him. Oh, that's right, he was going to win a stuffed animal for Y/n. He was quick to shake off his bubbly feeling as he smirked at Y/n.
"What? Worried for little old me?" Karma lightly teased, "I feel so touched, N/n~"
Y/n deadpanned, "Are you going to get that stuffie for not? Cause I've tried for five time already and I want it."
Karma chuckled as he inserted a coin into the machine, "You're pretty spoiled huh?"
Y/n stuck his tongue out, "You were the one who brought me here, so technically you're the one spoiling me."
The machine was rigged, so Y/n wasn't able to get the stuffie that he wanted. Karma made sure to tire a new one to the person in charge of the place. Both Y/n and Karma were kicked out and banned from the new place. But it was still fun and now the two can have a laugh when they look back at the moment.

Isogai looked at the papers he had in hand. They were all about event of the school and extra plans that could be taken for assassination. As class president, and one of the most responsible students in class E, Isogai had to pick and choose certain events to go to the main campus for, and what assassination attempts are safe to proceed with.
Isogai was quick to furrow his brows as he read over the attempt that a student wanted to do. Needlesstosay it was a stupid idea and needed to be put down right away. He was quick to throw away the paper into a nearby trashcan.
"Hey, Isogai," Y/n yawned as he walked up to Isogai's desk.
Isogai looked up and smiled at the sight of Y/n. He wasn't going to lie, being around Y/n's presence calmed him. Y/n made him feel all warm inside and made him feel happy no matter how stressful the situation is.
"Hi, Y/n," Isogai greeted, "Aren't you supposed to be with Karm and Nagisa right now? It is free period."
Y/n pulled a chair and sat next to Isogai, "Nah, I snuck away. I wanted to be with you for free period."
Isogai couldn't help but blush, "B-But they will be worried for you, won't they?"
"Probably."
"That's not a good thing Y/n..."
"I don't really care right now," Y/n yawned once again as he leaned onto Isogai's shoulder, "I'm just tired today, and you're already in the classroom."
"Oh, well do you want me to leave?" Isogai asked as he was already piling the papers, "I can just work in the teacher lounge. I'm sure that Mr. Karasuma and Bitch-sensei would mi-"
Y/n shook his head and closed his eyes, making Isogai pause what he was saying, "It's okay. I like being here with you."
Isogai blushed red as he glanced at then away from Y/n, "W-Why is that? Th-There's nothing special about me."
"Yes, there is..." Y/n trailed off as he was about to fall asleep, "I like the fact that you're quiet yet so strong at the same time. I like the fact that even with your current struggles, you find a way to push through them. You're cool, Isogai... really... cool..."
Isogai blinked in shock of what Y/n had just said. He looked back at Y/n who was sleeping on his shoulder at the moment without a care in the world. Isogai looked at the papers in front of him before he smiled.
Y/n thought he was cool, but the cool that would make a person a person and not a prince. Isogai had always heard that he could be a prince or a knight to someone, but hearing something so simple as 'cool' made him so happy.
Isogai knew that he had, at least, a small crush on Y/n. He would see Y/n walking around campus with a nervous and tired look on his face, but that was what made him unique. He liked how Y/n would hold his teddy, it was cute.
Y/n made Isogai feel wanted, even though he had barely even a penny to his name. Being poor, Isogai was looked down upon. But, even though he was in a much high level and status, Y/n never looked down on Isogai.
Y/n made Isogai feel like a regular human, not some bug to be squashed under a higher up's foot. It was refreshing to see that someone in the world would see him as a normal human. It made him feel cared for.
Isogai let out a quiet sigh as he went back to sorting papers at his desk. He made sure that every movement he did wouldn't stir Y/n awake in anyway. He continued his 'work' with a small smile and a blush on his face.

Nagisa was doing homework at his desk as Y/n was doing homework on his bed. This was one of the rare days when Nagisa's mother wasn't home for the time being so Y/n was able to go to Nagisa's house freely to get away from his guardian.
The two weren't doing much. To be honest, nothing much was happening, they were both just... chilling with one another. They didn't really need to speak since they've been friends for so long. They liked each other's company's.
Nagisa would glance at Y/n from time to time. He would watch how Y/n's (e/c) eyes would move from paper to paper, paper to book then back to paper, the pure concentration on Y/n's face was mesmerizing.
Nagisa also like how Y/n's hair would bob every time he moved his head. Sometimes Y/n would have to blow his hair out of his face, it was cute the way he would pout if the strip of hair would just fall back into place.
Y/n and Nagisa have been friends since Y/n transferred to Nagisa's old elementary school. Ever since then they've been through all sorts of things together. The bullying, the teasing, the comforting, all of it has been done by Y/n and Nagisa together.
Nagisa would think back to those times. Although those times were harmful because of the bullying, he can't help but feel warm when he was given the comfort that Y/n would give him. The soft words of unsure-reassurance, and the hesitant hugs were the best.
Nagisa knew he had a crush on Y/n, in fact he knew since the very beginning when he developed it. However, he can never push forewords with his crushing. He was scared that Y/n would stop being his friend just because he didn't feel the same why. Thus, the reason why Nagisa is scared.
"Nagisa," Y/n called out.
"Hm?" Nagisa hummed in questioning as he turned around to see Y/n on his back.
Y/n, who's teddy was laying on his chest, made grabby hands towards Nagisa, "Food."
Nagisa couldn't help but chuckle, "Already?"
"Please?"
"Alright, I'll see if I have some (fav. fruit) in the kitchen," Nagisa stated, getting up from his seat and walking to the door.
"Yes~" Y/n whispered out as he let out a small yawn.
Nagisa laugh to himself. He really hopes that he can be by Y/n's side as much as he can, even when they both are an adult. It just seems like everything is right when he is by Y/n's side, it made him feel warm.

"Ya know, you're good a pitching!" Sugino claimed with a smile, "Why not help me out once in a while, yeah?"
Y/n rolled his eyes as he threw another ball at Sugino, "You know for a fact that I'm nowhere near as good of a pitcher as anyone in a world. Hell, even a child can be better than me. Why not ask Kanzaki for that?" He said.
Sugino sighed as he caught Y/n's ball that he pitched, "Let me complement you, jeez. Besides, I honestly think that I would rather spend my time with you than with Kanzaki. Sure, she's pretty and a good friend, but that's all I really think about her."
Y/n raised a brow, "Really? I thought you, ya know, had a thing for her? Since you tried to go on a date with her, and all."
Sugino blushed for a moment, "I did have a thing for her," He shook his head and smiled at Y/n, "But not anymore. Honestly, I only see her as a friend now, and I think it's better if it stays like that."
Y/n blinked for a second as he caught the ball that Sugino threw, he then shrugged, "Okay. It was probably just puppy love anyways. You know, like admiration? Besides, we're all way too young to know whether or not we love or like someone."
"...Yeah... You're right..."
Although Y/n's words were true, they couldn't help but hurt Sugino a little bit. He only stopped liking Kanzaki because he realized his feelings for Y/n. When Y/n had gotten kidnapped that one time, Sugino couldn't help but feel extreme worry and fear over Y/n's safety.
Sugino at first, didn't want to believe that he liked Y/n. In fact, he was almost ashamed that he liked Y/n. So, he pretended and tried to convince himself that he liked Kanzaki. But it didn't work. Whenever he tried to think of Kanzaki, it just went to Y/n instead.
Sugino stopped pretending when he realized that he had a crush on Y/n, and he couldn't help it. He wasn't ashamed anymore but more embarrassed that he didn't accept himself sooner. But either way, he knew that he couldn't help his feelings that he had for Y/n.
"Sugino! The bell rung already!" Y/n's voice called out, "We need to get going!"
Sugino was quick to blink and run to where Y/n was, "I heard!"
Y/n rolled his eyes as Sugino ran up to his side, "It didn't seem like it, you were dazing out. Standing there like a deer in headlights. Do you want ears and a tail too, Sugino?"
"Such a brat!" Sugino claimed.
"Was that a yes?"
Sugino gave a pointed smile, "No!!"
Y/n rolled his eyes, "Too bad. I kinda wanted to see a deer Sugino."
"... Well-"
"I was joking."

"Teach me how to aim a gun," Y/n said out of the blue during practice.
"Huh...?" Chiba muttered as he looked down at Y/n in slight surprise, "Me?"
Y/n deadpanned, "Who else? You're literally one of the best aimers in the class."
"But you literally shot Koro-sensei's limb off the other-"
"It was by pure luck."
Now it was Chiba's turn to deadpan, "I somehow don't believe that."
Y/n narrowed his eyes, "300 yen."
Chiba crossed his arms, "1,000 yen."
"300."
"900."
"400."
"800..."
"500?"
"Hm..." Chiba hummed in thought, "600, lowest."
Y/n looked irritated for a second before sighing. He tossed Chiba a gun as he had one for himself. Chiba was caught the gun midair as he looked down at it. He couldn't help but smile seeing the 600 yen already taped on it.
"The fact that you already knew how much I wanted," Chiba said as he pocketed the money.
"Nah, that was the price I was already willing to go for," Y/n smirked, "I just said a lower number to get there."
Chiba scoffed, "You and your games, I should be calling you a gremlin from now on."
Y/n rolled his eyes as he and Chiba walked over to the targeting area, "Call me that and it's bye-bye to your kneecaps."
"Ooo~ Scary."
"You're testing me~"
"Brat."
"Only to you, ass."
Chiba and Y/n chatted with one another as Chiba would help Y/n aim correctly. This was how their friendship is, they both placed bets and teased the shit out of each other, with Y/n always being a brat to Chiba. But, honestly, Chiba finds it funny.
Chiba and Y/n were the kind of friendship that no one knew had happened. Hell, they don't even know how they became friends, it sort of just happened since Koro-sensei would put them together for projects since they actually worked together.
And to that, Chiba was grateful for Koro-sensei. Without that octopus wanting to play match maker at that time, Chiba would've never meet Y/n and became friends with him. Although, Y/n and him weren't friends that long, it felt long enough.
"Ready?" Chiba asked.
Y/n narrowed his eyes at the target as he had the assassin gun in his hand. He gave a nod signaling that he was ready for Chiba's orders. Chiba crossed his arms as he examined Y/n's posture.
"Aim," Chiba ordered.
Y/n raised his gun and aimed right where the target it.
"Shoot and fire."
Y/n shot the target. The paint ball that was used for practice hit dead center of the target. Y/n's face lit up a bit after seeing this. He's been trying his best for a while and finally he was able to hit the middle of the dumb target.
Chiba smiled, "You're good at this, Y/n."
"I finally did," Y/n groaned out as he handed the gun to Chiba, "That took way too long."
Chiba chuckled as he gently gave Y/n a small head pat, "You did good though. Keep it up and every shot you shoot will hit dead center of the target all the time."
Y/n gave Chiba a lopsided smile, "You were the one who helped me, so I think most of the credit goes to you."
Chiba was quick to smack Y/n on the top of the head. Y/n let out a small yelp as the smile he had on earlier was gone. He irked as he quickly turned Chiba, practically ready to tear the no-eye-boy a new one for smacking him.
"You were the one who improved," Chiba said before Y/n could snap at him, "Don't just give me credit but give yourself credit for improving. It shows that you can change and level up whenever you can with just a bit of knowledge."
Y/n blinked for a second before huffing in annoyance, he rubbed his head where Chiba hit him, "Yeah, okay, but did you have to hit me like that though?" He questioned.
This is when Chiba smirked, "Nah, I just wanted to do that since you were being a brat."
"To hell with you!"

Y/n was being picked on again. He was currently at the main campus with the rest of his class because there was an assembly again. However, this time, he lost Karma and Nagisa when he was trying to find his way to the bathroom.
Unfortunately, this caused Y/n to run into someone he didn't know. The other person was obviously from the basketball team because of how tall he and his friend were, they might even be taller than Shindo.
Y/n didn't mean to cause up a ruckus, he really did try to just glide past both of the athletes, but they just wouldn't let him leave. They got in front of him, taunted him, and pushed him around. It got to a point where Y/n was pinned to the wall, unable to get out of the situation he was in.
"L-Look I just want to leave, I swear I'm not here for any problems," Y/n said as he clutched his teddy close to him, wanting to go back to Karasuma or someone from class E to feel safe.
"Aww, the baby wants to go back to his mama," The guy that Y/n bumped into teased, "Does the child also want a dolly to play with too?"
The second boy chuckled with his friend, "Come on dude, this child is clearly a toddler, look at him shiver!"
The first boy laughed, as he poked at Y/n's cheeks, which still had some baby fat on them, "My bad dude! Wow to think that someone is so wimpy, and a boy nonetheless! Scaredy cat~!"
"Le-Leave me alone!" Y/n exclaimed as he pushed the guy's hand away from his cheek.
"Wow~ Such a brat!" The second guy cooed as he laughed and pointed, "Someone needs to teach you a lesson!!"
"How about a good whooping, yeah?" The first guy asked as he rolled his shoulder, "That would give him a good ass lesson."
"Or how about you stick your fist up each other's asses!" A new voice spoke up.
The two guys and Y/n looked behind the guys in shock that someone was here. Y/n was even more shock that Terakasa was the one who called out to the two tall athletes. The two guys looked at each other before gritting their teeth in anger.
"What's your problem man!?" The second guy asked as he walked up to Terakasa, "We were just having some fun, huh??"
"Yeahhh, this is none of your business!" The first guy claimed, "Run along now and find another prey!"
Terakasa irked at what the two guys said, he clutched his hand into a fist and made sure to show it off, "That's the thing. That wimp is my prey! So, you two better back off! If you mess with the wimp, you're messing with me!" He smiled uncomfortably making the two guys shiver slightly, "So back the fuck off!!"
"Geez man! We get it!" The first guy said as his friend was trying to drag him off, "Our bad dude, he's all yours!"
"Yeah, bro, our bad! Our bad!" The second guy stated as the basketball duo took off to their own classes.
Terakasa tched at the cowardness of the two guys, "Low lives..." He muttered before looking at Y/n, "You good, Y/n?"
Y/n rubbed his shoulder before whipping his cheek, "Yeah, I'm just glad you found me before they could do anything."
"Obviously," Terakasa rolled his eyes, "You were about to get beaten to the wall if I hadn't showed up. You're lucky that the red head and Nagisa came running to us that they've lost you. Mr. Karasuma was honestly ready to flip the whole school to find you."
Y/n sighed as he and Terakasa were starting to walk to where their class was, "I'm sorry. I just took the wrong turn and went into the other restrooms. Next thing I know, I'm on the other side of the campus with no idea where anyone is."
Terakasa let out an irritated sigh as he lazily put his hands in his pockets, "Next time, just stay with one of us from now on."
Y/n couldn't help but roll his eyes, "I might as well just go with you since you intimidate almost everyone. You're like my own personal bodyguard I could have."
Terakasa blushed but made sure to keep it down, "You're being ridiculous."
"I was just saying."
"Well then stop talking!"
"Rude..."
"You say that right after I saved your ass?!"
"Yeah, and?"
— ☽ —
"Oh Y/nnn~!!" A loud voice shouted as Meahara slid into the classroom that was almost empty.
"H-Huh? What?" Y/n groggily said as he had just been woken up, "Not now please, I want more sleep."
Meahara was quick to get a seat next to Y/n as he smiled brightly, almost like the sun itself, "Nope! You're not sleeping now, you're going to spend time with me! It's been too long since we've hanged out!"
Y/n yawned as he laid his head back down to his arms, "We can hang out by sleeping."
"No fun!"
"Meahara, please tone it down..."
"Sorry," Meahara quickly said but still had his smile of happiness on his face, "But I'm serious Y/n, we should hang out more. It's been too long since it's been just the two of us."
"It's the two of us right now," Y/n mumbled as he peek a look at Meahara, "What do you want to do now?"
Meahara pouted, "No, not like that. I mean... like... you know..."
"Going out?"
"N-NOT LIKE THAT!!"
Y/n deadpanned at Meahara's loudness, "What are you thinking now, Meahara? I meant as friends, like to the cafe or something. You're weird."
Meahara immediately calmed down after Y/n had said that. He couldn't help but blush a bit at his thoughts. He liked the idea of going on dates with Y/n, made him feel fuzzy inside for some reason.
Meahara will not lie, nor will he hide it, he likes Y/n. Ever since they both have accidently dumped into each in the halls that one time when they were first years. And this man fell head over heels for Y/n, literally.
The minute Y/n tried to help Meahara with collecting his books, this blond headed bimbo fell face first onto the floor upon seeing Y/n for the first time. Needlesstosay, Meahara embarrassed himself and made Y/n feel slightly overwhelmed with what had happened.
Meahara, at first, wanted to distract himself from Y/n. So, he hit on girls, all sort of girls to get his mind off of Y/n. But the thought of Y/n just keep running back, biting him in his ass as he tried his darn hardest to get over him. Nothing worked.
"Can we just sleep, here?" Y/n asked as he turned his head to look at Meahara.
Meahara got to see the sleepy expression on Y/n's face, and he couldn't help but blush lightly. The way that Y/n's eyes drooped naturally, and his hair would get into his face, but Y/n was too tired to move it, would make Meahara's heart flutter.
"Okay..." Meahara breathed out as he leaned his head down on Y/n's desk as well.
Y/n yawned as he closed his eyes, "Yay..."
Meahara waited for a bit and noticed that Y/n fallen fully asleep, he couldn't help but smile softly, "Cutie..."
— ☽ —
Y/n walked into the training room that was specifically made for Itona and Itona only. Shiro had told Y/n to give Itona water since he's been training, so that was what Y/n was here for. He carried two water bottles as he also clutched his teddy in his other arm.
Y/n wasn't going to lie, ever since Itona's ability has been revealed to him, he's been a bit scared of Itona. Just the thought that Itona could literally do anything he wanted to Y/n and get away with it because he was Shiro's favorite made Y/n shiver.
"Itona," Y/n called out.
Itona was quick to pause his training as he turned to look at who entered his training room without his permission. His eyes were sharp for a second with anger, but then calmed and relaxed when he realized that it was just Y/n. In fact, he turned happy that Y/n was here.
"Y/n," Itona said as he wiped sweat off of his chin, "Are you here to train with me?"
Y/n was quick to shake his head as he walked to where Itona was at, standing just a bit away from him, "Of course not. If I did that Sir will completely flip, I would never."
Itona visibly defeated at Y/n's words, "Oh..."
Y/n deadpanned at Itona's puppy-ish attitude, "I'm just here to give you water. Here. I want to leave as soon as possible."
The two water bottles were shoved into Itona's arms. Itona was slightly caught surprised by this action but of course brushed it off since it was Y/n. He used his tentacles to lift the water bottles out of his arms so that he could look at them better.
"I don't want these, though," Itona said, "I'm perfectly fine the way I am now."
"Don't give me that," Y/n huffed as he put an arm on his hip, the other holding his teddy closely to his chest, "You need that water whether you like it or not. You need to stay hydrated otherwise you'll definitely drop dead."
Itona let out a small hum before grabbing one of the water bottles, "You're right."
Y/n blinked in surprise, "That's... an unusual phrase from you. Did you just learn it?"
"I know how to use words...? It's called talking...?"
"I... Itona, no. I don't think you understand sarcasm."
"I do," Itona puffed his chest out in pride like a child or puppy.
Y/n deadpanned, "Like a pro..."
"See, you understand."
"Whatever," Y/n rolled his eyes as he turned to walk back out of Itona's training room, "I'm leaving now. We can talk later, I guess."
Itona furrowed his brows at Y/n's want to leave the room so badly. He was quick to use his tentacles and wrapped them around Y/n's waist. Y/n let out a small yelp when he was pulled back to Itona.
Itona hugged Y/n from behind as Y/n struggled to get out. Y/n stopped struggling as he knew for a fact that he won't be able to get out of Itona's crazy strong grip. Sometimes he wonders just why Itona was so attached to him.
"Thank you for the water," Itona said.
"Yeah, yeah, can you let go of me now?" Y/n asked as he patted Itona's arms so that he could be let go.
Unwantingly, Itona had to let go of Y/n so that he could go back to training and Y/n could go back to Shiro to see if he needed anything else. Y/n slightly stumbled when Itona let go of him but was quick to brush himself off and go back to walking out of the door.
Itona watched Y/n for a moment longer before turning back to his training. However, his mind was not on making new moves to kill Koro-sensei, but rather thinking about Y/n and how he could make him happy.
Itona like and adored Y/n, staying attached to him like how a leaf needs a tree to survive. He felt happy and warm when he is around Y/n, and he wants to keep that warmth with him at all times.
Y/n's warmth was so different from Shiro's 'love' to Itona. It was like comparing a simple pigeon to a peacock's feathers. And Itona want's the peacock more than anything in the world. So, he will make sure that Y/n is protected at all times.
'I wonder if Y/n likes being around me too,' Itona thought for a split second.

Y/n was currently in the library at the main building. He had gotten a pass from his councilor that he was able to go to the main campus's library whenever he wanted. However, he isn't allowed to bring friends from class E into it.
Y/n looked at all the different books that were in the (fav. genre) section, slightly surprised that a prestigious school such as this one had books for it. Although the selection of books is small, Y/n wasn't going to complain.
Y/n whispered to himself from time to time as he took books off the shelf only to not be interested in it and putting it back. He's been doing this almost all period, but he didn't mind since he wanted to find the prefect book for himself to read.
"Y/n?" A voice whispered out to him.
Y/n blinked in surprised since when he pulled out a book, another face was met from the other side of the bookshelf. Asano was the one on the other side of the bookshelf. He had also pulled out a book and was met with Y/n's tired looking (e/c) eyes.
"Asano," Y/n whispered, "I didn't take you for a (fav. genre) type of person, it's a surprise."
Asano lightly flinched as he blushed pink, "What I can't have an opinion now? Besides, I wanted to try something new from all of the educational stuff," He breathed out quietly.
Y/n couldn't help but lightly snicker, "Nothing's wrong about it, Asano. I'm just happy that you're getting out of your comfort zone. Besides, (fav. genre) is my favorite type to read for books."
Asano took a quick scan around to make sure that no one was looking at him or Y/n, "What are you doing here anyway? Class E students aren't allowed in the main library. Please don't tell me that you stole a slip again."
Y/n deadpanned as he rolled his eyes, "I did that one time and I was a first year here, come on. And no, I didn't steal anything, this time. I actually have a pass to be here because of the new councilor. She's nice too."
"Finally, a nice councilor."
"Tell me about it."
"At least you can-" Asano paused for a second, "Wait what do you mean you didn't steal anything 'this time'?"
Y/n snorted and covered his mouth to keep in a laugh. He quickly looked around and noticed that no one in the library had noticed that he was going to laugh. He quietly giggled to himself silently.
"I'm surprised you just noticed," Y/n whispered, his voice almost going into a normal tone because of almost laughing.
Asano's smile twitched in slight annoyance, "I will smite you."
Y/n stuck his tongue out, "Try if you can, my classroom is on top of a mountain, you'll never reach me, bitch."
"You gremlin."
"HA!"
"SHH!" The librarian shushed, not even looking up from her book.
Both Asano put a handover his mouth as Y/n used the book he had in his hand to cover up mouth. They both looked at each other for a second before shaking to try and keep in a laugh at the fact that Y/n almost got in trouble.
"Now look at what you done," Y/n whispered-yelled, "You almost got me in trouble."
"You were the one who laughed," Asano claimed, lowing his voice as much as he could.
Y/n rolled his eyes as he put the book back in place, covering Asano from his view, "So rude. Can't even get respected around here."
"Ah! You're one to talk."
Y/n made Asano feel like he was a kid again. He made him feel like he could be less strict, less of an honor student around. Asano appreciates that Y/n sees him as just a regular student and not someone that is top 5 in the grade.
Y/n made Asano feel... human, unlike his father who keeps treating him like a robot for rewards and success. Thus, the reason why Asano likes Y/n, and why his father disapproves of Y/n's friendship.
Y/n panted heavily as he was on his knees curled up into a ball. He clutched his teddy close to him as his breathing was uneven and he choked on his own saliva. His legs were all bruised up as well as his hands and knuckles. However, a pair of shoes stood beside him, not even trying to help him.
"Get up," Shiro's chilling voice made Y/n tense immediately, "You're useless if you stay like that. Get up right now."
"S-Sir," Y/n stuttered to even talk correctly, "Let me have a break, pl-please. We've been training for-for 5 hours straight. I want to eat, I want to take a nap, just 15 minutes, please. We-We've been up since-"
"I don't want another word from you!"
Y/n's breath hitched as he heard the sound of a stick being hit on the ground. The stick was usually used when Y/n is training. It's a punishment. Do the training wrong, you get hit with it. Do the training right, you might just be able to leave the training room early with now cuts on your back. That was Y/n's training.
"Yeah, we've been up since 7 am, but Itona has been up since 5 am to train," Shiro compared, "It's only been 5 hours for you, you'll be fine. Just get the training over with and you'll be able to leave for the day, do you understand, Y/n?"
Y/n coughed, "N-No! I haven't had food! I haven't had a chance to rest! I-I need rest! Fa-Father please-!" He let out a cry of pain.
"You will do as I say!!" Shiro shouted in anger, "You are not to call me father only sir!! You are to follow my orders, do not disobey!! This is for your own good, Y/n L/n!! I do this so that you can grow stronger and finally defeat that damned octopus on your own!! Do you hear me?!
"How ungrateful do you have to be to not see that what I am doing is all for you?! If you get that money, you'll be able to go to college. If you get that money, we'll be a happy family, like you've always wanted. If you get that money, I will finally be proud of you!
"Do this one thing in your life. Do you not want me to be proud of you, boy??"
Y/n clutched his teddy as tears fell down his cheeks, "I-I do... I do want to make you proud, sir. Ju-Just let me take a break, then-then I'll go right back to training, I swear. Please, just let me take a break. Please, please, please..."
Shiro glared down at the begging boy. He felt no care, no remorse for such a useless child he had found on the side of the streets. He did not feel the need to care for the child as he once did before. He stopped caring for a while now.
"30 minutes," Shiro claimed as he turned away, "You have a 30 minute break to eat and rest, but the minute it is up, you are to be expected to be right here."
Y/n's eyes widened. He was quick to scramble to his feet, holding his teddy by the arm as he ran to the exist of the training room. He knew he had to be quick in everything he needed to do. He had to eat fast and had to set an alarm so that he could at least have a 10 minute nap before he had to go back to training.
When Y/n was running around the place so that he could take care of himself, he didn't even notice that Itona was at the doorframe, actually horrified at the type of training that Y/n had to go through.
Shiro never had to make Itona work that hard before, so why is Y/n being treated so differently?
