New Years kiss (part 2)

~back to school

"I can't believe I agreed to this.." Ayumu groans, "This isn't even fair! I technically kissed him!"

"It wasn't on the lips so it doesn't count! Now get in there!" Sylar retorts pushing her flushed friend into her classroom and shut the door quickly. The class fell silent. There Ayumu was, wearing her punishment. A sign on her front that said, "I'm a chicken! Bokbokbok!" And a sign on her back that said, "Property of Yamaguchi Tadashi, if found return to him."

"Alright class take your- Michiyo San, Yamaguchi-San can you please explain to me this inappropriate behavior!" The teacher demanded appalled behind Ayumu.

'Shit.' Ayumu's face practically screamed.

"E-excuse me ma'am?" Yamaguchi stands, "I have nothing to do with this! I-I'd never-!"

"Then explain this!" The teacher interjected turning Ayumu around.

"Shitshitshitshit!" Ayumu nervously mumbled. Yamaguchi flushed upon reading the sign and the class erupted into gossiping whispers. "S-Sensei it isn't Yamaguchi's fault I-I lost a deal with someone and was forced to wear this!" Ayumu explains embarrassed.

The teacher pinches the bridge of her nose and sighs, "Look, it's none of my business what you kids do outside of school but please keep it outside of school," Ayumu nods furiously, "All of you take your seats, and Michiyo-San please take those signs off." Ayumu scurries off to her seat hurriedly taking off the signs, blushing furiously.

'God. Could things get anymore awkward between us?' She thought to herself. She had to fix this somehow.

Lunch break~

"Yama!" Ayumu quickly turns to the freckled boy, "I'm really really sorry about this.. about everything! I-I didn't mean for things to get so awkward.." She sorrowfully apologizes.

Yamaguchi smiles slightly, "It's okay Michi. You said you made a deal to kiss whatever guy friend you ended up with.. And I just happened to be that guy, no biggie," he responded almost sadly, "although, I could've done without the signs," he chuckles awkwardly.

"Yama I-"

"I gotta go buy lunch," he interjects scurrying out the door. Ayumu sighs and lays her head on her desk.

"What kind of girl promises to kiss just anybody?" Tsukishima pokes at her head."

She turns toward him and sighs, "I know, I know.. But in my defense Sylar made the deal too so we're both kinda fucked up I guess.. By the way, did she kiss you?"

"That idiot was supposed to kiss me?!" Tsukishima asks with surprise and a hint of distaste, his cheeks tinging slightly.

Ayumu's head shoots up from her desk, "That bitch didn't do it, and she made me go through that bullshit punishment?!" She fumes.

"How's your punishment going?~" Sylar calls teasingly, peeking through the door of the classroom.

Ayumu shoots her a menacing glare, "I'm going to murder you." She says darkly pouncing after her friend.

"Oh shit!" Sylar quickly scrambles from the door and far beyond Ayumu's reach. Before Ayumu could stop herself she crashes into the next person standing in front of the door.

"OH GOD. I'M SO SORRY YAMA I JUST- I WAS TRYING TO RESTORE OUR HONOR," Ayumu frantically apologizes trying to salvage the rest of Yamaguchi's lunch.

Yamaguchi looks at her bemused, "Restore our honor?" He snorts, "What are you a samurai?"

"You're not helping!.." She retorts flushing, "I just wanna make things right, but I keep making it worse.."

Yamaguchi smiles at the effort, "Michi, it's okay. We're okay."

"Really?" Ayumu perks up slightly, "I don't want to ruin this friendship; Yama, please be honest with me." she softly demands.

'Friendship' Yamaguchi thinks, 'for some reason, that word almost hurt.' "I'm absolutely sure Michiyo." He Responds firmly.

Michiyo smiles and offers a hand up, "Come on! You can have some of my lunch."

Yamaguchi smiles and takes her hand, 'but I guess it's fine as long as you're still in my life.' He thinks to himself.

After practice at the Foothill store
Daichi bought the team meat buns again (including Ayumu since she practically was a member)

Hinata munched on his meat bun, "Ne, Michi, is what Sylar-San said true?"

"Hm?"

"T-that you kissed Yamaguchi on New Years," Hinata tries and fails to whisper.

Ayumu blushes crimson and Yamaguchi chokes on his meat bun. Everybody freezes.

"SO IT IS TRUE!" Hinata screeches blushing as well.

"S-she told you?!" Ayumu fumes embarrassed, "When did she tell you?! Why did she tell you?!"

"Me and Kageyama met her in the hallway running and asked her what's wrong, and she said you were going to kill her for making you kiss Yamaguchi!" Hinata frantically responds holding his hands up in surrender.

"We were too busy protecting Kiyoko-San we forgot about her precious little sister!" Tanaka wails

"Now she's all grown up, and now Kiyoko-san's gonna be mad at us for not protecting her!" Nishinoya adds.

"I honestly think that's not why she'll ever be mad at you two," Suga retorts plainly, "but I do have to admit kissing is pretty forward."

"I-it's not like I kissed him on the lips or anything.." Ayumu murmurs, blushing behind her meat bun.

"Where'd she kiss you man?!" Nishinoya and Tanaka grab and shake the red-faced freckled boy, and Yamaguchi very shyly pointed to the corner of her mouth. They fall back in mock heart attacks, "Does your sister know about this?!" Ayumu shakes her head meekly.

Tsukishima tsks, "Michiyo, don't you know PDA is bad? Yet here you are promising to kiss any of us here on New Years," he scolds with a smirk.

Ayumu shoots him a glare, and Hinata's brain short circuited with a poof! And a little scolding, flustered fiasco started.

"STOP." Ayumu call their attention, "I- I did say that but I realize now how hard it is to kiss someone, and how special it is.. AND GOD DAMN IT I WAS HAPPY IT WAS WITH YAMA!" Ayumu yells flushing red. The entire scene silenced and Yamaguchi turned beet red, "Now if you excuse me I'm gonna leave before you guys start being jerks again!.." She retorts storming off.

"Michiyo! Michi!" Yamaguchi calls storming after her.

"I can't talk to you right now!" She stops and buries her face in her hands, "Embarrassing... That was so Embarrassing!..."

"Did you.. Did you really mean that? What you said back there?"

"Oh god please don't make me say it again.." She murmurs, and Yamaguchi tries to hold back the growing smile on his face and muffles laughter behind his hand. "I-it's not funny!" Ayumu defensively stutters out.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry it's just.. I'm really happy."

She looks up at him and the growing blush on his face and she quickly turns away, "W-what does this makes us?.."

"I- um- I don't know" Yamaguchi awkwardly laughs.

"Let's see what these feeling are.. I guess?" Ayumu unsurely suggests.

"Right."

"By the way thanks for letting me use your scarf.." She says desperate to change the topic.

"Ah, n-no problem... Would you like me to walk you home?" Yamaguchi hesitantly asks. She gives a quick nod, and a new routine was formed between them.
