You shoved open the front door of your dorms building. Storming your way through the porch and to the stairs. You spotted Hoshi waiting for you at the bottom step looking surprised by your aggressive entrance. You didn't make it far before you heard someone behind you.

"Don't walk away from me," his harsh voice made your body tense, but you kept walking. Trying to ignore him and just leave. But he wouldn't let that happen, his hand wrapped around your wrist stopping you. He swung you around, forcing you to look at him. His eyes bore into you, demanding answers.

"You're just going to leave? Not even going to try and explain yourself?" You turned your head, deciding not to answer. The only sound between you was the slight breeze in the air, making your skin crawl with a chill.

"Are you not happy with me anymore?" The severity in his tone was gone, but you could hear him struggling to hold back how he truly felt. He spoke again when you still didn't respond, "Answer me."

You sighed, still not wanting to look at him, knowing you'd break if you did. "I don't know Katsuki. I just need time to think."

His grip on you loosened, making it easy for you to slip your arm away from him and walk away. You didn't look behind you as you moved slowly down the stairs.

"Let's go," your voice was soft, almost a whisper as you spoke to Hoshi. Afraid that if you said anymore your emotions would seep out.

He glanced at you and then Katsuki before he followed after you. Slowly walking behind you, not saying a word as you walked off campus. Once you reached the car you stopped, arms crossed, waiting for Hoshi.

"Is everything okay?" He asked lightly, not wanting to make you angry like he had the last time.

"Yes... No... I don't know." You were rigid, frozen in your spot by the car door.

Hoshi was silent a moment, trying to think through what was happening. He wasn't sure what he had witnessed and how much you'd be willing to divulge to him after the stunt he pulled the other day.

"Come with me, I get the feeling you don't want to be around anyone right now." He stepped away from the car, walking down the sidewalk towards a small park by the school.

You paid no attention to the people around you as you followed behind him. Staring at his shoes, careful not to fall behind. Orange leaves covered the grass and parts of the sidewalk, periodically you could hear the small crunch of a leaf breaking beneath your step.

Hoshi stopped suddenly, moving to sit on a bench beneath one of the large trees in the center of the park. He patted the free spot next to him and you looked at it momentarily before deciding to take it.

"You don't have to tell me what's going on. I know I haven't earned your trust, but I figured we can hangout here. You just don't seem like you really want to be out in public right now." He spoke slowly, choosing his words carefully so not to anger you once again.

"How could you tell?" Your voice sarcastic as you slouched into the bench.

He didn't say anything just let the silence fill the space between you both. You sat with your arms crossed, listening to the small screams of the children on the playground, mothers sitting talking, keeping an eye on their kids as they played. The two of you didn't really fit the atmosphere of the park.

Hoshi finally broke the silence, "If this has anything to do with what I did the other day, I want to apologize again for that."

"Well no offense but I don't forgive you." You stayed facing the playground, ignoring Hoshi as he all but stared at you.
