Years after they're first meeting in high school, Sugawara finds himself being dragged into a bar to see a familiar face.
Maybe he hasn't gotten over his high school girlfriend as well as he thought.

❝I know you don't think you have power over me but you do❞

"Ah, you're awake," [y/n] said. Her hand was still on the door handle as she looked towards the bed, where Sugawara was now sitting up, awake, with the light of the now turned on lamp hitting the side of his face. He smiled. "It was cold without you." He patted the empty side of the bed. "Where'd you go anyways?"
[y/n] sighed and padded over to the empty spot. Once she had sat down, she shook the bag of chips in her hand. "I was hungry," she replied. Sugawara hummed as she slumped further into the bed.
"I ran into Masahi too," she said. Sugawara perked up and watched as she placed a arm over her eyes. Her face was scrunched up into what resembled a cringe. Sugawara could tell instantly she was stressed. "Did something bad happen?" He asked. [y/n] shook her head and forced herself to sit back up.
"I think I'm being overdramatic to be honest," she sighed. "He just said some stuff, I don't really like they way he put it but I guess he was right in some ways..." "What did he say?" Sugawara placed a hand on her thigh. [y/n] went quiet for a while.
"Where is this going, Koushi? With you and me? What are we going to do?" [y/n] asked, her eyes trained on him. Although she didn't answer his question, Sugawara pretty much already knew what Masahi had said just by what she had asked. What were they going to do? [y/n] wasn't going to stay here forever, she'd go back to America at some point and he'd stay here. They could love each other all they wanted but nothing could change that [y/n] couldn't stay.
"We could try long distance again, if you want," Sugawara said, almost in a whisper. He took her hands into his and squeezed them. [y/n] pressed her lips together. "Don't say if you want. You know I want to, I just need to if you want to." "I do," he said, brushing a strand of hair away from [y/n] as she sniffled.
"Okay," she spoke up. Her voice sounded shaky and Sugawara couldn't pin point why it was. "But I really need you to promise me you won't just abandon me again. If you're unhappy, you need to tell me. Please." Sugawara mumbled promises into her ear as he pressed kisses against her cheek and held her hair away from her face. "Because I cant go through that shit again, I know you don't think you have power over me but you do," she whispered her confession. Sugawara pulled away from her face. "I have power over you?" He repeated. His face didn't look like he believed it. "You have so much it actually scares me. I mean you could ask me to do anything and I'd probably do it in a heartbeat. Back when we were kids and even now too," [y/n] let out a laugh but it didn't lighten the mood, it just made her feel pathetic. "Turns out every fucking man does these days." Sugawara shifted to sit closer, still keeping her hands intertwined with his. He mumbled her name quietly under his breath.
"Masahi, Yukio, even that fucking Axel guy, everything they say shakes me to my core. It effects me so much to the point I don't even know how to act right. I don't why, maybe it's because my dad wasn't around or something phycological shit like that but I just want guys to like me, even if they suck, or they're pathetic, or they best guy to walk the earth because if they don't find me pretty or interesting then how am I supposed to know I'm liked at all? They have so much power over me, it's sad. It's so stupid." [y/n] swallowed. She wondered if Sugawara even understood what she was talking about, she wasn't too sure if she understood herself.
"I don't want have that type of power over you, [y/n]," Sugawara mumbled to her. "It doesn't have to be a bad thing, you know," she replied, rubbing a thumb over his knuckle. "Maybe if you know, then we can work out our shit better than we did last time?" Sugawara nodded, placing a kiss to her temple.
"Besides, you got your big confession, I might as well have mine," she smiled with a shrug.
