Mizuna carried her rabbit in the living room, seating herself on the couch. Kaname started to go closer to her, his fingers lightly brushing the hair out of her face. Their eyes met as they smiled at each other, Usashiro yawned softly. Mizuna ripped her attention away from her brother and onto her adorable pet. Snuggling close to it, Mizuna felt someone tap her shoulders. Looking up at Subaru, he gave her a nod. She had to go to school. It became a regular thing for Subaru and her to walk together.
"Kaname-nii can you please put Usashiro back into his cage?" Mizuna asked, watching as that smirk appeared on his face.
Subaru left the room first, Kaname leaning to get his morning kiss. Before their lips could even touch, they heard someone's voice. It was Ema, glaring right at her sister. Swallowing a bit, Mizuna handed the rabbit over, walking out to find Subaru.
"So I'm curious about something…" Subaru blushed.
"What is it Subaru-nii?" Mizuna smiled.
"Do like Masao-nii or Kana-nii?"
"I like them both, but I just can't decide sadly," Mizuna pouted.
"Aren't they a bit old for you?" Subaru chuckled.
Mizuna just laughed with him, hitting him playfully as they arrived at school. They parted as eyes were on them both. Feeling embarrassed slightly, she made her way towards her class. Sitting down, someone took the seat next to her.
"You must be Asahina Mizuna right?"
"Yes, I am," she smiled, looking towards that person.
It was a male, probably just a few months older than her. He had light brown hair with a hint of blondness in it, and green eyes that captivated her. Mizuna swallowed slightly, keeping a steady smile on her face.
"My name is Suzuki Takeshi, it's a pleasure to meet the beauty from those magazine covers," he breathed.
"I wouldn't say I'm beautiful or anything. There are more pretty people than myself."
He still stared at her, Mizuna becoming quite uncomfortable. She didn't know if he was trying to flirt with her but she quickly focused on the paper in front. Doodling on the white paper, she felt Takeshi coming closer to her.
"What do you say? Do you want to hang out with me?" he asked her.
"Ah- I plan to wait for my brother after his basketball practice," Mizuna lied, watching as he believed her words.
"Oh right, the basketball player Asahina Subaru. He's very popular with the girls here."
"I bet he is."
"I never thought he would have an adorable sister like you."
"He has another sister," Mizuna said, hearing the bell ring.
Before she could even get up, he pulled her back down. Eyeing him in a strange way, Mizuna felt his grip on her get stronger.
"I'm not taking a 'no' for an answer. Since tomorrow is Saturday, I want to meet up at the train station near your house. See you later."
He left her, her feet shaking a bit. Clearing her throat, she made her way towards the basketball court. Subaru was practicing alright, his focus on the other players. Mizuna watched from afar, admiring his dedication. She was proud of her older brother, deciding if she could go cheer for him on his next game. That's when he noticed her as he was getting his water bottle. Subaru made his way towards her, waving while smiling.
"I wasn't expecting you here Mizuna," he said, wiping his sweat with a spare towel.
"Sorry, this guy didn't bother me and wanted me to walk with him when I was about to go home. I lied to him that I would stay here to wait for you once you were done with practice."
"It's okay that you lied about this. I don't mind you waiting, but it's going to be long since I stay overtime," he chuckled.
Mizuna shook her head, smiling towards him yet again. Those words from her mind escaped her mouth, herself blushing afterwards.
"I know that you work hard and I'm very proud to have an older brother like you. Therefore I don't mind waiting."
That set his cheeks running red as he covered it with the towel in his hands. She didn't know why she said that but she never regretted that. she looked up at her brother, watching as he went back to practice. Sitting down on a spare chair, her eyes started to close as sleep drifted slowly.
That next thing she knew, she was being carried by Subaru. Getting embarrassed, she felt his broad shoulders. She had fallen asleep waiting for him to get down with practice. The sun was already setting as Subaru noticed her awake.
"You can let me down Subaru-nii," Mizuna said.
"I'm already carrying you."
"…I'm sorry that I fell asleep. If I didn't let slumber take hold of me, then I wouldn't have to burden you by carrying me," Mizuna blushed.
They headed inside, everyone's attention on them. Subaru told them that he was going to take her up to her room, Kaname rejecting that idea.
"Did she injure herself or something?" Masaomi asked.
"I just want to carry her up to her room, that's all," Subaru said.
"Oho~ did something happen between you two?" Tsubaki said in a certain voice.
"We did nothing, I swear," Mizuna blurted out, Subaru making their way towards the elevator.
She felt truly indebted as she tried to tell her brother to let her down. But her words were like bouncing off her, Subaru stepping off onto her floor. Making his way towards her door, Ema came out. she had a concern face as she made her way towards them.
"Did Mizuna injure herself?" she asked, Subaru letting her down.
"I just fell asleep while I waited for his practice to end. He was kind enough to carry me back home," Mizuna explained as Subaru left them alone.
"Why were you waiting for him?"
"This person didn't leave me alone so I lied to him that I was going to-"
"You said that you were going to push away our brothers?" Ema said, glaring at her.
"But you're not doing the same. Why should I be the only one pushing away our brother's affections?" Mizuna snapped, unable to control her anger anymore.
