Miyagi:
Mmm, Shinobu added french toasts and omelets to breakfast! I don't know from where is he learning all this but this last two months I have been having the best kind of mornings in years. Delicious food cooked with love, kisses from my adorable lover and someone to bid me goodbye at the door while leaving for work. Not even when I was married was I so happy! Then again I did not marry out of love... I thought happily to myself.
But when I looked up from my food to praise Shinobu he was glaring down at his food. He's been doing that a lot lately, which is starting to worry me.
"What's wrong Shinibu?" I finally asked, fed up with his brooding.
"Uh? Nothing… It's just that my friend, the one who has been teaching me how to cook, is going through a lot lately. He even had to go to see a professional and I'm worried about him" he informed me, sighing tiredly at the end.
"Oh, Shinobu you don't have to dwell on it. The good thing is that he already is seeing someone who can help him. All you can do is stay by his side and lend him a ear or a shoulder when he needs it. Ok? Now let's finish eating and I'll drive you to college" I ordered, finally relaxing a bit.
There was nothing wrong going on with Shinobu, no family drama or bullying in college. I was happy and relieved about that… but at the same time I was jealous. I have always been the focus of his attention, whenever he is with me he gives me his all. However, now he is eating breakfast with me after an amazing night while thinking of this guy I have never met.
I love this part of Shinobu the one who is so nice and kind to the ones he cares about. But that doesn't stop me from wanting to be the only one he shows those sides of himself to. Since when did I turn so possessive?
I kept on thinking of that the whole day, even my teachers had to call out my attention a few times in class since I was spacing out. How embarssing! I finally found peace during lunch. Kamijou was out doing I don't know what with his huge boyfriend, leaving me all alone in the office. Normally I would complain about it but right now I needed some me time to sort my thoughts around.
A smile bloomed on my face when I took out the bentou Shinobu had packed for me. It was an adorable pair of lunchbox and flask with a chibi panda design. He still hasn't learned how to make lunch but he still made the effort of making me something simple. A healthy smoothie to keep me hydrated in summer, a light salad and some bread he bought freshly made during the morning.
I love him so much!
But before I could take a bite of my food someone knock on the door. I sighed sadly and called out for them to come in. Soon a young boy entered the office. He had a petite form, brown messy locks and blazing emerald eyes. He didn't seem that much more older than Shinobu but he had an innocense in his eyes that made him seem much younger than he was.
"Oh, Professor Miyagi. Excuse me for interrupting your lunch but I was looking for Kamijou-sensei. I need to ask him about the finally essay he asked us to do" the boy said, but then squealed when he saw my lunchbox and flask "Miyagi… you are Shinobu's Miyagi?! When he said he was dating someone here I didn't think he was a teacher!" The boy exclaimed shocked.
"You know Shinobu?! More importantly you know about us?!" I demanded to know shocked myself.
Does Shinobu don't know that I my job is on the line?! I screamed in my head.
"Yeah… I'm his cooking teacher" he answered "I also have known about you since the first day. But don't worry I won't tell anyone!" He rapidly added afterwards.
He is a good kid, I thought relieved.
"I'm sure you must be very confused and surely disgusted by me dating someone so young" I commented, feeling a lot self conscious about it now.
"No! Not at all! I don't really think love is a number… as long as it is out of love and not because you simply want a young lover or are in a mid-age crisis" he assured me.
"Don't worry Shinobu is not my scape of a mid-age crisis. I love him like I've never loved anyone before" I confessed with a soft smile. Feeling quite light after finally saying it out loud to someone else "Why don't you take a seat and I help you with your essay?" I offered the boy "By the way, what's your name?"
"Mistake Takahashi" He answered, taking a seat and shooting question after question.
No one's P.O.V:
What none of them knew was that someone was overhearing their conversation outside the door… someone who would change the life of the Takatsuki household completely.
