"Me? I got it. I saw it so don't worry!"

Tsukishima heard Mayuhina converse with someone on her phone. She grinned happily as if she enjoyed whoever she's talking to and was even blushing. While Tsukishima was definitely curious on who she's talking to, it's still none of his business so he kept swiping on his phone to find a good song to play.

"Okay, love you too."

Tsukishima almost dropped his phone. He stopped himself from glancing at his seatmate. He tapped on a random song to play it so he won't have to hear the odd public display of affection Mayuhina showed even though her partner was just on her phone.

Three minutes after, the song ended. Tsukishima put his phone under his desk and when he looks at Mayuhina, he sees her smiling at her phone with a flushed face. She leaned on her chair and placed her phone down before sighing contentedly. When she peers to her left, Tsukishima looks away to avoid being seen.

Unfortunately, Mayuhina saw him but chose not to call him out because she isn't bored as she would normally be. Suddenly, she hears a sigh and just by that, she knew who it was. She turns to her left and sees Tsukishima scowling at her.

"If you're going to talk to your lover, do it outside." He reprimanded while his chin was perched on his palm. "How do you know that that's my lover?" Mayuhina asked, no tone of teasing or mocking present in her voice.

"Anyone who sees it would know instantly." Tsukishima said before looking outside of the window. Mayuhina smiled at him and chuckled at his claims.

"Honestly, Kishi – "

Tsukishima shifted his attention to Mayuhina and glowered at her. "Did you just call me Kishi?" he probed. Mayuhina grinned cheerily and nodded her head. "I can't call you Tsukki and it's tiring saying your whole name so I decided to call you that." She informed.

"Great name, right?" she winked. "No." Tsukishima snapped back. "Don't call me that or I'll – " he paused when his seatmate stared at him innocently. "Just don't call me that." He said as he shook his head in disapproval.

"Why not? The whole class calls you Tsukki and you hate it but when I call you a new one, you also hate it. Which name do you want to be called?" Mayuhina ranted but when she saw her seatmate glare at her, she nods in an understanding manner.

"So you'd rather be called Kei."

Tsukishima chuckled darkly as he heard Mayuhina say his name. He turns to her with threatening smirk and mutters, "Say that again."

"That again."

"Don't talk to me anymore." Tsukishima retaliated. He leaned on his seat and ignored Mayuhina's soft hiccup-like laughs. Out of nowhere, Tsukishima feels himself smiling a little so he fakes a cough and looks outside the window again.

After classes ended, Tsukishima wished to pop like a bubble and disappear from the world.

Yamaguchi walked with the blonde male and wondered what happened with his seatmate again that it made Tsukishima look so aggravated. Unknown to Yamaguchi, Tsukishima experienced another humiliating moment of his life while Yamaguchi was out doing what the teachers asked him to do.

When lunch break happened, Tsukishima went to the cafeteria and accidentally, he bumped into those shorter guys who acts like a gangster.

"Hey! Who'd'ya think you are?" one of the delinquents shoved Tsukishima. This irked the taller male so he readied himself to mock someone but a certain someone appeared.

"Hey, did you just push him?" Mayuhina softly asked as she placed herself in the middle. She kept her usual smile and glanced at the three delinquents, who smirked at her. "Aren't you the Juliet of the Drama Club? Weak girls shouldn't butt in." one male said.

Out of the blue, Mayuhina chuckled grimly as she cracked her knuckles. She eyed the three males coldly and massaged her shoulders as if she was getting ready for a brawl.

"So... you think you're tough, huh? You must be dumb to try and mock me because of my gender." Mayuhina spoke intimidatingly. Tsukishima eyed her with confusion and was confused on whether he should stop her, let her, or leave her.

He stayed in the end. He was interested with the outcome after all.

"This woman here thinks she's stronger than us!" One of the male said. "She must be those group of girls called feminist!" another one said, making the other two laugh.

Mayuhina huffed at the three. She smirked and stared daggers at them.

"Feminist? Sexist? Communist? Capitalist? Racist? I don't care about those! I don't need labels that will only dictate who I am as a person. The only label I would accept is pretty, understand!?" Mayuhina exclaimed. She instantly noticed the reaction of the crowd and the three men in front of her. They were petrified.

She glared at the three delinquents and motioned them to leave with her eyes. When they don't leave, she sneers at them.

"You don't want to leave, huh?" Mayuhina proceeds to crack her knuckles and approach the men but they scurried off the second she moved. Smirking to herself, Mayuhina fixed her necktie.

Tsukishima, who observed his seatmate, denied that he was amazed by her actions. He sighs and proceeds to leave but when he sees the crowd, he pauses.

"Did you see that? Isn't that Tsukishima Kei? Why was he protected by someone like Mayuhina Mikoto?" A random student whispered.

"Maybe they're lovers?" another voice added their opinion.

Hoping to be swallowed by the ground, Tsukishima glanced at Mayuhina, who had a satisfied look because of her acting. "Did I act well?" Mayuhina showed a thumbs up. When she sees Tsukishima frowning, her smile drops and she makes a thumbs down instead. "Was it bad?" she asked, clearly saddened by her seatmate's reaction.

Tsukishima groaned and observed the audience. Left with no choice, he yanks his seatmate's wrist and pulls her with him. Ignoring the claps and cheers of the other students, Tsukishima decided that he would rather get beaten up than for others to assume that he's dating his seatmate.

Once the two was in a secluded area, Tsukishima let go of Mayuhina.

"Did I ask for your help? I didn't, didn't I? So, why did you butt in?" Tsukishima interrogated, evidently angry at what Mayuhina did.

Meanwhile, Mayuhina felt wounded by what her seatmate told her. It's not like she's doing it because she wants to, she's doing it because she has a reason. Although, that reason might now be invalid because of certain circumstances.

Sighing to herself, she gazed up at her seatmate. "I did it for a reason so don't get angry at me." She explained.

"What's that reason then?" Tsukishima probed.

Mayuhina bit her tongue and hesitated on answering it. "Well..." she paused. She feels her face warm up so she pinched herself to remain calm. "I can't say it. It's embarrassing." Mayuhina says before walking away but when her hoodie gets pulled by someone, presumably Tsukishima, she stops and pulls her hoodie before turning to the tall male.

"What is it?" she asked, maintaining her calm attitude.

"If you can't answer why you did that, then answer this. How long will you keep on riling me up?" Tsukishima questioned, he had his serious face so Mayuhina can't help but feel a little bit timid. Stepping back an inch, Mayuhina forced a smile.

"Maybe... until you remember what you forgot?" she grinned sheepishly before escaping the scene, unable to be stopped by her seatmate.

After the events that occurred, Tsukishima was now on his way to the volleyball club with Yamaguchi. Confused by what his seatmate told him, Tsukishima forced himself to forget about it before entering the clubroom.

A/N:

Let's talk about this story...

This story's plot is simple. Tsukishima Kei meets a girl who can rile people better than him and then she proceeds to give out hints that they met each other before but Tsukki doesn't remember and the story starts there. There will be misunderstandings in this story just so the plot will roll and if I keep true to my words, this story will only have thirteen to fifteen chapters.

This is all the story is about so I don't really expect this story to have a lot of readers but for you who is reading, if you enjoy it, then please feel free to click the the next chapter and find out how this will end.

I'm not expecting anything so please keep reading.

Thank you.
