I heard a knock on the door of my room.
“(a/n)! Are you in there?” I heard one of my teammates from Prominence calling.
“Yes!” I answered, getting up and opening the door so I could face the boy.
“What do you want, Heat?” I asked him, leaning on my door frame.
“Burn challenged Gazel, and they want both teams in there! – Heat answered with a sigh.
“Is it a football game, at least?” I asked, gritting my teeth at the memory of the two captains.
“Well…” he started, with a sweat drop.
“Heat!” I warned, dangerously. “What. Is. The. Challenge?” I demanded.
“Hide and seek!” the boy blurted, as fast as he could.
“What?” I half-shouted. “And do we really have to play that?” I whined.
“Yes! We don’t really have a choice on the matter!”
“Let’s go, then!” I sighed. “Or else, Burn will get mad!”
“Football pitch number 3!” Heat said as we started to run. I just nodded my head in recognition of the meeting place.
A few minutes later, we arrived to the pitch just to find everyone was already there.
“OI, (a/n), Heat! You’re late!” Burn shouted, causing everyone from Prominence and some people from Diamond Dust to flinch, while I just shrugged and literally waved off the comment.
The Game
Burn was the one who was going to look for everyone.
I was running down the halls looking for a good place to hide. I was passing the Diamond Dust team’s dormitories when an idea struck me, no one, and I mean no one would even think of looking for me in Gazel’s bedroom. I quickly dashed to the silver haired captain’s bedroom, and threw myself behind his bed, away from the common view.
After a couple minutes I was almost falling asleep when someone entered the room running. I peeked from the place where I was hiding to see no other than my long time crush, the captain of the Diamond Dust team. I blushed as I realized I was in his bedroom without his permission.
“(a/n)? What are you doing here?” he asked, acknowledging my presence.
“Well… aaah… I-I’m hiding!” I stuttered.
“In my room?” he lifted a brow.
“Well… Yes, it’s not like Burn is going to remember to look for me in here, right?” I stated.
He nodded and walked over to me. “That’s true!”
He sited beside me and I turned my face a little so he couldn’t see the blush on my cheeks. After a few minutes of silence, I started to drift again and I ended up leaning onto his shoulder.
“Gazel?” I asked, with my eyes closed.
“Yes?” he asked.
“Do you like someone?”
“Yes!”
“Do I know her?”
“Better than anyone, I believe!”
“Who is she?” I asked, lifting my head to look at him.
“Close your eyes and I’ll tell you!” he said, smirking at me.
I nodded and closed my eyes. I felt his hand leaning my chin up, and immediately after, soft lips met mine. I opened my eyes a little just to close them shut again. My arms got around his neck, while his snaked around my waist.
The bedroom’s door opened, revealing Burn, who looked shocked as he entered.
“Well… I guess I’ll see you later, then!” the Prominence’s captain stated, going away, closing the door behind him.
In the room, we both parted, in need for air.
“I love you, (y/n)!”
“I love you too, Suzuno!”
