'See you tomorrow!' Inuokawaved. His teammates shouted similar things. You stood next to him patiently waiting to start your little journey home. 'Ready?' he asked. 'Ready.' you answered. The two of you walked in silence. Unnoticed to Inuoka however you were watching him closely. There was something off. You just couldn't see what it was. He seemed tense. Caught up in his own mind. And not as energetic as usual. 'Is everything alright Inuoka?' you asked once curiosity took over. Your friend seemed straddled. 'What? No! I mean yes! Everything's perfect!' he hurriedly spat out. That was even more suspicious. But when he didn't wanted to tell you it was his problem. 'Fine.' you said. You continued to walk in silence, but now you were actually ignoring him. Not that he had known that, but you did. That evening you laid wide awake in bed thinking about what Inuoka could have had on his mind. Maybe there happened something at practice? Or he had problems in school? But he defiantly would have told you something like that. Did you forget an upcoming tournament or match? You jumped up grabbing your planer, flicking the pages. No. The next one was over a month from now. After a few more guesses you laid back starring at the ceiling. Maybe everything really was fine. Maybe you just imagined something odd. Still unsatisfied you fell asleep. The next morning you already forgot it and went on your typical start for the day. Getting ready, breakfast and so on. Perfectly on time the doorbell rang and you put on your shoes ready to take off for school.'Good Morning!' Inuoka smiled at you. A big wide toothy grin. A FAKE big wide toothy grin. Something was wrong. Now you could almost smell his worries. 'What is it?' you asked narrowing your eyes while scanning him. 'What? Nothing!' he looked almost as afraid as a mouse that's trapped by a lion. You sighed. 'Fine. Let's go.' you passed him. If he really didn't wanted to talk about it with you, you couldn't change it. You still felt hurt though. Again you walked in silence, which was normal when you walked home since Inuoka was tired from practice and stuff but not so normal on your way to school when he was usually hyped up for practice. Your ways separated at the gate. He went to the gym and you walked, slightly depressed, to your club. A few minutes before class started you sat in your seat, head resting in your palm and still mobbing around. That's when Shimbaya came in. He was your classmate. Only now an idea popped up in your head. Maybe HE knew what was bothering Inuoka. 'Hey Shimbaya!' you called out getting up and walking over to his seat. 'Yes Y/N?' he looked up to you. 'I'd like to ask you a question.' you turned around the seat in front of him, since it's owner wasn't sitting yet, and sat down. 'Okay. Ask ahead.' he said smiling. 'Do you know if something is bothering Inuoka lately?' you straight out asked. Shimbaya blinked a few times. 'Uhhhm' he said. 'I asked him already but he say's there is nothing even though he's all strange and thinking and silent.' you tried to explain your misery. The bell went of. 'Just wait. I'm sure it'll clear up soon' Shimbaya told you. That was no satisfying answer at all and by no means helpful. You couldn't focus any bit this day. Inuoka was your friend. The two of you were quiet close, spending time with each other every day. And still he didn't tell you what was on his mind. But friends were supposed to tell each other whats on their mind. Your school day was almost over when another (genius) thought crossed your mind. Maybe he had GUY PROBLEMS! That would explain why Shimbaya seemed to know something. And why he didn't wanted to tell you. If you had girl problems you didn't talk about them with guys so it was just understandable if guys didn't want to talk about them with girls. Now you felt bad for pressuring him into telling you. Straight after your club you ran to the gym. As always practice had already ended. 'Inuoka! Come with me!' you grabbed him by the wrist and pulled him out. 'Wow! Hey! What's wrong?' you stopped and looked at him. 'I'm sorry! I didn't wanted to pressure you into telling me. If you have guy problems I understand if you don't want to talk about them with me. I mean I'm a girl after all and I have no idea about those things-' 'WHAT?' Inuoka looked shocked. Was it wrong to mention those problems? Had you made a mistake? 'Guy problems? What are guy problems?' he laughed. You relaxed. He wasn't mad at you. 'I thought you had problems you didn't wanted to talk about with me.' you explained feeling a little stupid.'Well the only guy problems I have, are the ones where you don't know how to tell someone you like them as more than friends.' he admitted.'Oh.' you said. 'And why couldn't you talk about that with me?' you asked not getting on. 'Usually you don't talk to the person you like about how to tell them you like them.' it took about four heartbeats till the lights went on in your head. 'You...you mean...like...like me? Me? Like really me?' you stuttered surprised. 'Yes.' Inuoka smiled at you. It was a real smile. And you could sense how his tenseness faded. And it was all gone after you whispered 'I like you too'.
