Hi everyone :D I'm back with another YuuMika fic haha

So this time I tried to write a little differently compared to how I usually write. You might find that it's fast-paced and have a lot of time skips, and if you don't like, it's okay to not follow anymore. I just wanted to try something new though I am finding myself that it feels very plot-centric without a lot of character development, at least you don't see it as much.


Yuu only wished for a regular school life.

And he got what he wanted. He had friends, dated a few times, got good grades, was in a few clubs. Everything was relatively normal… until he showed up.

"Yuu-chan!"

"I TOLD YOU TO STOP CALLING ME THAT!" Yuu yelled back but the blond only smiled.

"Hey Yuu-chan, your boyfriend is calling," his classmate teased and Yuu stuck up his middle finger at the guy before turning to Mika. "What's up this time?"

"I wanted to know if you wanted to hang out after school. I have a day off today," Mika said, but quickly added, "It's okay if you're busy. I know this is kind of sudden to ask you."

"I have soccer practice today," Yuu said.

"Ah, I thought as much," Mika said with a dejected puppy face. He could already hear half the class aww at his pitiful act but Yuu was not going to give in.

"Yuu-kun can take a day off today!" Kishimoto, the vice-president of the soccer team, said.

"Can he?" Mika asked with renewed hope. Kishimoto nodded with a thumbs-up but Yuu wasn't going to stand by it.

"We have a game two weeks from now," Yuu countered, "As a second year and primary player of the team, I feel like I should be attending all practices."

"Yuu, my man, come over here," Kishimoto said. Yuu raised a brow but went over anyways. Mika stood by his desk but Yuu wished that he left. Kishimoto stared Yuu straight in the eyes while Yuu noticed he was surrounded by his male classmates, "From what I hear, the girls invited Mika to karaoke and he agreed. Not all of us are popular sensations and since you're so friendly with him, help some of our brothers out. But not me since I have a cute girlfriend!"

"Go die!" Seno said as he gave Kishimoto a lightly shove. The two were best friends since elementary school and Seno was the team manager since he was not as athletic. "I don't usually approve of members skipping practice for personal love affairs, but I can make an exception this one time."

"You guys are unbelievable," Yuu said but he could feel the expectant stares of his fellow classmates. "Fine, I'm only going to agree this once."

"Mikaela, Yuu-kun said he'd go," Kishimoto said as he leaned out of the circle to give Mika a smile and thumbs-up.

"That sounds great!" Mika said, "You're welcome to join us too if you aren't too busy."

"Unfortunately, the vice president must attend practice for good team morals," Seno said, "But do have fun with everyone."

"Can I go?"

"Me too!"

"I want to go too!"

"The girls said we have room for 5 more people," Mika said and everyone praised him like a god.

Yuu was actually looking forward to going to practice, which meant time away from Mika and just focus on the game, but looks like he'll just have to wait for Saturday.

"Wait," Yuu called at Mika as he dug through his bag. He never thought he would ever call out to Mika, but here he was because of a stupid favour he agreed to do for Akane, "I was tasked with the job to ask you to sign their magazines. There's like 6 of them here."

"Oh sure," Mika said as he took the magazines from Yuu. "I'll see if I can get them back to you before lunch ends. If not, I'll give them back to you when class ends."

Mika turned around and walked off while Yuu muttered "good riddance" under his breath. He would not have done something like that if anyone else asked, but since it was Akane, he couldn't say no. He briefly wondered if she was part of the group that asked Mika out to karaoke, but he'll find out later that day.

"Oh Yuu-chan," Mika called out from his desk, "You can ask me for my signature without saying it's for someone else. I don't mind."

"THOSE AREN'T MINE."

"Of course they aren't," Kishimoto butted in, "A growing boy like Yuu-kun would have-"

"That's enough out of you Kukai," Seno said as he clasped his hands over Kishimoto's mouth, "Stop trying to embarrass Amane-kun anymore."

~ Look at Me and Smile ~

The bell rang and the students all let out a breath of relief but groaned again as the teacher wrote down their homework.

All the teacher does is make them read from their textbook and do worksheets on the readings so Yuu reads ahead and does other work during class time. It was only more productive and wasn't as sleep inducing as listening to your classmates drone on about one of the Japanese eras.

Yuu has yet to be caught, but their teacher is too engrossed in the readings to even notice. Though his keen ears catch when students misread and viciously corrected them on historical figures' names.

Some students caught onto what Yuu was doing and did the same. He didn't mind. It only made sense to put the time to good use if he could read it faster and at his own leisure. They were almost a quarter into the book and Yuu was half-way finished reading. He still had to revisit the chapter the night before to refresh his memory, but because of some slow readers in his class, the worksheet handled out was often homework.

"Here you go," Mika said and placed the magazines on top of Yuu's work, "All six signed by yours truly. Though I wasn't sure what I was supposed to sign so I signed the cover and any other pictures of me."

"Um, thanks… I guess," Yuu said as he moved it aside to pack his bag.

"Mikaela-san!" A group of girls gathered at the door and Mika walked over to greet them. Yuu assumed it was the same group that they were going to karaoke with later, but didn't bother since he had another task before he joined them.

"Yuu-chan, we'll meet you at the school gates then," Mika said as the other four guys huddle around Mika, trying to talk to the girls. Yuu nodded and resumed packing. He wanted to make sure he had everything he needed even though it was just a Thursday. He didn't want to haul around fashion magazines with Mika's signature on it or people would maul him for it.

Luckily he didn't have many textbooks to carry with him and he made room for the magazines earlier in the morning.

He walked down the hall to 1-B, hoping that his childhood friend was still there. It would be a problem if he had to bring those to the karaoke place. He is sure those girls would try something to get their hands on one or all of them.

"Yo, Akane," Yuu called from the door way after a pair of students exited the room. She perked up from the conversation she was having with two of her friends and waved at Yuu. She talked turned back to them but then gestured for Yuu to walk closer. He rolled his eyes but did so.

The other students were whispering amongst themselves, probably because he was a second year.

"What brings you to the first years' sanctuary?" Akane joked as Yuu walked to her.

"To deliver the product of my labour," Yuu responded and pulled out the stack of magazines. Akane gasped but clasped over her mouth quickly before ripping them from Yuu's hand with excitement. Yuu felt like she was about to explode from excitement. "He signed the front cover and every picture with his face on it."

For a moment, he thought he might have broken Akane since he handed her the magazines, she had only been staring at them with a starry look. But with no forewarning, she dug through the pile and handed the two girls, what he assumed to be their magazines, and they were all quietly gushing over the signed magazine.

"If that's it, then I'm leaving," Yuu said and turned around to leave but someone tugged on the back of his jacket. He looked back to see Akane smiling at him, still holding four magazines close to her chest.

"Thank you," she said with a smile. Yuu smiled back and pat her on the head.

"Be good now. Also girls are vicious, stay safe," Yuu said before turning around and leaving.

"Is that your boyfriend?" Mami, one of her friends, asked and Akane laughed.

"Not at the slightest," she responded, still giggling at the thought, "Just childhood friends."

"He'd be perfect boyfriend material though."

"I mean, he is great and all, but he's not really my type?" Akane said, "I just never saw him like that. And I don't think he thinks of me in that way either."

"Then… is this your type?" Chiyako asked and showed a picture of Mika in a white suit with a red bowtie, side glancing at the city in the night time, his reflection appearing in the glass.

"Maybe," Akane giggled, "But Mika is more of an idol crush than a real crush. But he's so hot in person."

"I know!" her two friends chimed in.
