When you arrived to your home, you told your parents about the news on the new apartment you will be moving into tomorrow. After that, you went upstairs to your room and began to pack your belongings in boxes.

You felt tired in the middle of packing your stuff, and so you plopped yourself down on your bed, looking at your progress. "I think I'll need some extra manpower in helping me bring all my stuff. Hah, half of these boxes are filled with anime merchandise and manga, too," you thought aloud. "Maybe I should ask Tsukishima-san... no, I'll ask Yamaguchi-kun instead."

~The following day~

You were having lunch inside the classroom this time, since you were scared to be alone again. Yamaguchi happened to stay inside as well. You had recalled yesterday that you wanted to ask help from him in settling in your new apartment. You had to explain to him as well about the whole story.

"I-Is that so?" Yamaguchi scratched his face. "Sure, I can help you."

"Yay~! Thanks, Yamaguchi-kun! I'll be counting on you."

~Timeskip: After School~

When school was finished, Yamaguchi finally had the opportunity to walk home with you, and even stay with you longer.

The two of you had to fetch your boxes of belongings first before you proceed to go to your new apartment. Once you transferred them to your van, you had your mother to drive you and your friend to the destination. Thankfully, it wasn't your father who drove you. Otherwise, the atmosphere inside the vehicle would've been a lot tighter.

"So, you have another boyfriend already, huh, (Y/N)?" Your mother teased.

You and Yamaguchi blushed brightly. "Mom, let's not make this awkward please!" You said in a begging tone.

She chuckled. "I'm just kidding! But really, I thought you had a thing for that guy who brought you home the other day; the one with the glasses and blond hair."

"Are you talking about Tsukki?" Yamaguchi asked, glancing at you.

You sweated nervously. Yamaguchi might think of very unwanted misunderstandings. "I-It's Tsukishima Kei, a classmate of mine in my new class, together with Yamaguchi-kun."

"Ah, I see. Well, I hope you take care of (Y/N), Yamaguchi. You seem like a nice person for helping her out in this," your mom said in a kind manner.

"I will, (Y/L/N)-san," he replied.

The moment you reached your destination, your mother quickly left after you and your stuff were dropped off. You thanked her and waved goodbye. Now, you were all alone with Yamaguchi.

"I apologize for my mom. She gets too engaging sometimes," you sighed as the two of you start to bring boxes to your new apartment room.

"It's not a problem, (Y/L/N)," he answered.

Both of you opened the door to your room and you gasped in awe at the size since it exceeded your expectations. It was fully furnished with beautiful decorations. You set down the boxes on the side and fetched more of them.

Once you got all of them inside, you began to transfer them to their respective rooms. You carried the heaviest out of all boxes: your anime merchandise. Yamaguchi brought your other bedroom necessities to you room as well.

While you were picking up a box, Yamaguchi asked you, "(Y/L/N), what your mother said earlier about Tsukki... Did he walk home with you or something?"

You almost dropped the box you were lifting and crush your fingers. "Tsukishima-san? Walk home with me? W-Well..." You shuffled your feet on the floor. "I just happened to run into him, and so we decided to walk home together since we were going in the same direction."

You could almost hear him let out a sigh of relief. You picked up the box once more and headed to your room. As you were walking, you suddenly tripped on a smaller box on the ground. This made you lose your balance, letting go of the box you held, gasping. Luckily, Yamaguchi was in the room, and he noticed you. He immediately approached you just in time to catch you before you collapsed on the wooden floor.

Your face turned bright red when you realized how close each of your faces are to each other. Not to mention his arms were securely wrapped around your waist. "T-Thank you, Y-Yamaguchi-kun..." You mumbled, still locking eyes on his.

"Y-You're welcome... O-Oh, I-I-I'm sorry!!!" He quickly lifted you back up then shuffled away from you, finishing up the final tasks.

Before the sky turned darker, Yamaguchi had to leave. His goodbye was short since he was too flustered to look at you. You shut the door and looked around. You got really fired up to do things on your own, and so you prepared a nice meal for dinner.

While you were cooking rice (because that's the Asian diet ( ' v ' )), it almost got burnt because of you spacing out too much, thinking about the incident that had happened just a while ago. It keeps on rewinding back and forth in your mind, and it easily makes your face heat up. You sighed and opened up the rice cooker, scooping out the rice you can finish eating.

Meanwhile, Yamaguchi was walking home alone. He also could never forget what he just did. However, something else worried him greater. "So it was Tsukki who keeps (Y/L/N) busy after school..." The freckled boy recalls what Tsukishima had said to him yesterday. Maybe his best friend could be hiding something from him.
