HIS HOUSE WAS QUAINT. SHE HONESTLY FOUND IT ADORABLE.

"This is your first time at my house right? Welcome home," Shin said playfully as he opened the door for her. "It's just me and my brother now, my parents are separated so my mum's with her new family and my dad's abroad, but he visits occasionally. Anyways, can you believe we're in the third year of uni?"

"It's been awhile, we're getting old." Chiharu mumbled as she took off her shoes and entered his house. She noticed the rack of shoes by the door, piquing her curiosity, "so, is your brother home?"

He nodded, "yes, but, he won't bother us. Shen usually stays in his room, doesn't really come out of his room really. Now, are we going to make cookies or not? Choc chip, or...?"

"Uh, choc chip of course," she said and placed her bag down on the table. "You never talk about your brother, do you get along?"

Shin brought out the ingredients from the pantry, "we get along fine, I take care of him, sign his forms but we stay out of each others way. It's fine though, we're used to this."

"We should offer him some cookies after."

He loved how kind she was, "if that's what you want."

AFTER SMEARING EACH OTHERS' FACES WITH COOKIE DOUGH, A HOUR and a half later, the cookies were finally done.

Shin's mint coloured eyes gazed at the white haired girl adoringly as she wiped her face clean with the towel, he loved her. He was completely utterly, in love with her. He'd wanted to confess for awhile now, but he was afraid of ruining their friendship.

"I'll offer some to your brother. Stay here," she ruffled his white hair before she made her way to what she assumed was his brother's room, with a tray of cookies in her hands. "Uh, hey... do you want some cookies?"

His brother actually brought someone home. A girl no less. He was astonished. Though what astonished him more was the sound of her voice, it was beautiful, soft. His door flew open, revealing a white haired girl with teal highlights wearing an apron and a bit of cookie dough lightly smeared on her cheek. "I... yeah.. thanks," he grabbed a few cookies and looked at her, awestruck. "I'm Shen."

"I know," her lips curved upwards. "Shin and Shen, hm. Enjoy the cookies," she shot him a small smile before walking back to his brother.

Why did he feel like this? Like he wanted to hold her in his arms and kiss her, but they'd just met. He peered out of his room and saw her laughing with his brother and his heart clenched. He didn't like that. At all.

SHEN HAD COME HOME EARLY FROM SCHOOL, WITH A LOT on his mind, and what he didn't expect to see was that his brother was home.

"No classes today," he said as if reading his younger brothers mind, an underlying tone of sadness in his voice as he didn't get to see his best friend and his crush.

"Where's your friend?"

Shin looked up from his phone, "you mean, Chiharu?"

That was her name, "you only have one friend?"

"I only need one, she's my best friend," he shrugged nonchalantly.

With a muffled grunt, he walked past his brother and into his room. He already had plans for when she did come over the next time, the purple haired boy grabbed the notebook from his bag and opened the page where he'd doodled her name over and over again. "Shen Miyashino doesn't sound too bad. I like it."
