Y/n arrived at the third floor bathroom whilst holding a mop. "Hanako——"

      Her smile turned upside down in realization. She dropped her mop. "Oh right he isn't here anymore." she said.

      Y/n was used to go to the third floor bathroom to see Hanako playing with the Mokke. He would intentionally flirt with her whenever he can while she was cleaning.

      Her eyes are watering as she slowly entered the bathroom, just like she used to on the first day she summoned him.

      Y/n made her way infront of the third stall. She took a deep breath as she raised her fist to knock at the door infront of her.

      One.

      Two.

      Three.

      "Hanako-san, Hanako-san." Y/n called while clasping her hands together. Her eyes are shut with tears brimming from the corners of her eyes. "Are you still there?"

      She expected an eerie feeling around the atmosphere of the bathroom. She expected a playful voice mentioning that he was there. She expected Hanako floating over next to her and put a hand on her shoulder.

      But it never came.

      Y/n pushed the door gently, only to reveal an empty toilet. Her eyes couldn't hold back tears anymore, so she dropped on to her knees and cried.

      "You promised we stay together by tomorrow, the day after tomorrow and forever." Y/n's voice cracked as she cried. "You promised." she said softly.

      "Um, excuse me?"

      Y/n's eyes widened, tears are still on her eyes. She wiped them quickly and saw that Amane was standing by the door while holding a bucket of water with a mop.

      "This is third floor girl's bathroom right?" he asked.

      Y/n looked away from him. "Yes, you're in the right place." she replied.

      Amane entered the bathroom and puts down the bucket. "What are you doing here?" Y/n asked, still not looking at him.

      "You must be L/n, right?" Amane sat next to her. "Sensei told me that we're partners in cleaning this bathroom today, so it seems that you're already here. Did you start cleaning yet?"

      Amane looked at what Y/n was looking. "Why are you staring at an empty bathroom stall?" he asked.

      Tears began to pool out from the corner of her eyes. Amane panicked all of a sudden as he saw her cry. "W-why are you crying?" he asked while swatting his hands.

      "You don't understand!" Y/n looked at Amane then shouted. "You will never understand!"

      Y/n stood up from her position to leave the bathroom but Amane grabbed her wrist to prevent her from doing so.

      His hand felt warm on her wrist.

      Y/n turned around to take a look at Amane. He was slightly taller than her considering she was used to see him float all the time. The Amane from the fake world is an uncanny resemblance of him.

      Why does he look so real and fake at the same time, though?

      Y/n parted her lips to utter his name until something else came out instead. "Hanako-kun?" she immediately covered her mouth.

      Amane tilted his head in confusion then smiled slightly. "I think you didn't hear my introduction recently, I'm not Hanako-kun or whoever that is."

      "I'm Yugi Amane though." he said.

      Y/n wiped her tears using her free hand. "I'm sorry, it's just that you kinda remind me of someone."

      Seeing him in a boy's uniform felt weird since she was used to see him in red and black clothes with a hat along with a seal on his left cheek.

      Y/n gently yanked her hand off his hold. "My name is Y/n L/n, nice to meet you Yugi-kun."

      "Do you mind first name basis?"

      Y/n blinked twice as she processed on what he just said. "But... we're not dating and we just met."

      "Ok then L/n-san." Amane nodded instead as he went over to the opened bathroom stall. "Why is this opened though?"

      "I was just reminiscing about some things I guess." Y/n answered.

      The two of them are now standing in the twilight of dusk by the window pane.

     Amane spoke up. "Do you wanna be friends?"

      "Friends?" Y/n questioned.

      "I mean sure I sometimes go with Yamabuki or Aoi but I feel like you and I would be great friends." Amane flashed a big smile. A tiny blush spreads across the girl's cheeks and her heart skipped a beat for the first time in months without Hanako.

      Well currently Hanako is Amane in this scenario.

      Y/n's lips curled up into a small smile. "Let's be friends Amane-kun——I mean Yugi-kun!" she said stumbling upon her words since she blurted out his first name.

      "It's fine if you can call me Amane, I don't mind first name basis." he said.

      "Then, you can call me Y/n."

      "Great!" Amane grabbed both of her hands and grinned childishly. "Let's be great friends together, Y/n!"

      'He really does act like Hanako.'

      'Of course, Amane is Hanako no doubt they will act the same.'

      Amane let go of her hands and looked around. "We should get this place cleaned, Y/n." he mentions.

      Y/n nodded while she took the mop and dipped it in a bucket of water. The two of them worked in silence, the awkwardness is killing Y/n and she wanted to engage a conversation with him.

      Y/n sighed instead and continued mopping the floor.

      Amane was wiping the windows and mirrors. He took a peek on Y/n just to make sure she is okay and not crying anymore.

      Y/n tucked a strand of hair behind her ear that was on her face. The black haired boy didn't realize that he was staring at her for so long and forgot to wipe the last mirror.

      Although Amane admits to himself that Y/n was his type of girl that he likes. Heat rises to his cheeks as he pouted and continued his work before Y/n caught him staring at her.

      "Ah!" Y/n proudly smiled as she wiped her sweat from her forehead using her arm. "Nothing is better than a sparkly clean bathroom~!"

      Y/n and Amane got out of the bathroom after cleaning. "Do you want to join a club?" Y/n asked while walking next to him. "I manage the Astronomy Club."

      "Whoah really?!" Amane asked eagerly as he puts his face closer to hers. Y/n's face turned into a bright shade of red and looked away from him.

      Like she mentioned before, he looks attractive without a hat. Maybe Amane's charisma had gotten better that he can make her really fall for him.

      "I mean, yeah." Y/n nervously chuckles on how their faces were close to each other. "I could literally talk about Astronomy for like a day without getting bored!"

      "You're really cute Y/n, I like that." Amane complimented. Y/n swore her stomach is doing cartwheels right now and her heart is beating so fast. "I can't believe I'm friends with someone who also loves Astronomy!"

      The two of them arrived at the Astronomy clubroom shortly after. "Um, Amane-kun." Y/n called him. "You can look around inside and explore, I'll be at the Student Council for a moment to get something."

      "Sure, sure." He nodded as he went inside. Y/n turned around and went to the Student Council to meet Kou and Yashiro.

➽───────────────❥

      "Wait?" Yashiro scooted next to Y/n. "Yugi-kun offered a friendship with you?"

      Y/n nodded. "I mean I don't mind, but it feels weird for some reason." she says. "I mean he was Hanako but it's pretty scary on how similar they are, it's like bringing someone back to life."

      "How are things going with Hanako?" Kou asked the frustrated teenage girl. "I get it we're all weirded out."

      Then someone knocked on the door. Kou stood up from his chair and opened the door. "Yo—Hanako?!" he exclaimed as he saw Amane standing infront of him.

      "Hanako-kun?!" Yashiro stands up from her chair.

      Amane tilted his head in confusion. "But I'm Yugi Amane though." he reminded them. Now he's in a state of internal existential crisis because of the three of them kept calling him Hanako.

      "By the way boy, where is Y/n?" Amane asked the blonde exorcist. Kou's eyes widened and his heart clench, remembering that Hanako used to call him that.

      Amane went inside the clubroom and spotted Yashiro. "Oh! You're the council president right? By the way some of the boys in different grades have this group called Daikon Army, they're sorta your fanboys."

      Yashiro gasped. "I have fanboys?!"

     Y/n entered the scene with a can of Sprite on her hand. "Oh? Amane-kun?"

      Yashiro and Kou gasped once again. "Did you call each other by your first names?!" they asked.

      "Yeah, he calls me Y/n." Y/n says then slowly sipping at her drink. "I call him Amane."

      "By the way, there are two people who are willing to join your club." Amane went over to Y/n and held her hand, leading her to the clubroom.

      "I'll see you two tomorrow!" Y/n bid goodbye to Yashiro and Kou.

      Y/n and Amane arrived at the Astronomy club and saw a girl and a boy waiting at the entrance. "Please come inside."

      "Amane-kun, get the two chairs at the back." Y/n beckoned. Amane grabbed the two chairs and puts them down.

      "So what are your names?" Y/n asked.

      "I'm Choi Yeonji from the first year." the girl introduced herself then pointed at the boy next to her. "This is my fraternal twin brother Choi Yejun."

      "You guys are from Korea?" Y/n asked. "There are some foreigners and hafus in this school."

      "Anyways, when you two join this club we will be having club activities every Wednesday." Y/n tells them. "After cleaning hours, which is 4:30 in the afternoon."

      Y/n grabs two star brooches from the cabinet and pinned them to their collars. "With this pin, everyone will know you two are from the Astronomy club."

      "Thank you L/n-senpai!" the Choi twins bowed.

      After the twins had left the clubroom. Amane and Y/n went out again. "My little brother got home early." he sighed while looking at his phone. "He decided not to interfere cause I'm with a girl."

      "That shipper I swear." Amane mumbled under his breath.

      "Y/n, do you want to walk home?" he asked. "Just the two of us?"

      "Eh?"
