Nanashima looked down at his hands once again as his girlfriend babbled on about something that only seemed to drown out into the background, for his mind was elsewhere.

Throughout the last week, he had noticed that you had been spending more time with his best friend Igarashi. More time than he liked, more time that he would call friendly.

He had spotted you in classrooms alone, spending lunch and breaks together, and even meeting after school. Because of all the time that you had spent together, his mind wouldn't stop drawing to a conclusion that he really didn't want to believe.

You were cheating on him.

As much as he tried to avoid coming to that conclusion, the evidence that he had seen only supported his idea.

And he was going to confront you today, he was found to get a definitive answer; whether or not it was what he wanted to actually hear.

"And then-"

"(name), I need to ask you something." He rudely cut you off from whatever you were saying, his gaze finally meeting yours.

"Hm? What is it?" You hummed, slightly feigning a upbeat tone, but you were internally worrying about what Nanashima had to ask.

From the slight wavering eye contact that Nanashima was giving you, you knew that whatever he had to say, it wasn't good.

"Nozomu?" You whispered out his name, a hand reaching out to touch his own. But, he pulled his hand closer to his mouth, biting down on his nail.

You took that as a indication to not push it further.

"You seem to be spending a lot more time with Igarashi lately." He stated, tensing his jaw, holding back the urge to speak some more, but this was all he could say... for now.

You let out a nervous chuckle, which Nananshima didn't take lightly. His green eyes narrowed at you, comparable to an icy glare.

"Yeah we're good friends, you know that." You replied, "And that's all we are."

For a split moment, Nanashima believed you. His sweet (name) wouldn't ever leave him for his best friend, right? But then he thought back to the time when he saw you after school, laughing as if you were the ones dating.

He didn't reply for a moment, his expression only darkening. You nervously started to play with your hair, twirling your locks between your fingers, somewhat calming you down as you waited for what he had to say next.

'I'm just gonna say it.' He thought, nodding to himself.

"You like Igarashi, don't you?!"

His voice suddenly bellowed throughout the classroom. If it were school hours, he surely would've caught the attention of his classmates, including Igarashi.

You felt shocked, that was a way to put it. You frowned at him, not saying a word as you pulled on your hair some more. It felt like a stab to the chest, how could he accuse you of something like that?

"Don't you?! You like Igarashi!" He seethed, fists clenching as his voice only grew in volume.

To say the least, he was hurt that you didn't try and defend yourself after his wild accusation. You simply took it, not firing back any words. It didn't help in not making him feel any more guilty, especially when he watched the expression on your face begin to falter.

"No!"

Silence.

"I don't like Igarashi! I like you Nanashima! If anything, I'm insulted that you thought I would chase after your best friend!"

You shouted out your words, with just as much volume. However, your words were laced with emotion. Nanashima could sense the aching in your words, the fear, the fear of losing him.

"How could you...?" You sniffled, "How dare you think that I like Igarashi."

Nanashima's mind scrambled of something to say back, anything that he could contradict you with. Your words were persuasive, but that nagging 'but' remained in his mind.

"Do you know how many times I've spotted you with at lunch?" He stated, "You've been with him more than you have been with your own boyfriend."

That done it. The tears were flowing, down your cheeks and onto the ground. You failed to look up at Nanashima once again. You let out a few strangled 'idiot''s, before walking outside of the classroom.
