TIMELESS

Confession

After countless papers, exams and projects a week break had finally approached for all the students at the university. While most students headed home to visit family and friends, Takemichi and Hina made their way to one of the many frat houses off campus.

No one would have thought Chifuyu of all people was frat material, but here they were accepting an invite from the boy himself. The party was packed with people, the smell of weed lingering in the air along with the smell of different types of alcohol. There were people coupled up, groups of friends joking around and a ton of people getting drunk past their limits.

Takemichi put his red cup to his lips, taking a small sip from it and scrunching up his face slightly.

"Michi, I'm gonna go over to Yuzuha and Senju is that ok?"

"Of course, I'll just find Chifuyu," he nodded before making his way towards the common area of the house. His eyes landed on Chifuyu who was sporting a black undercut, looking more mature than before. He smiled to himself, before plopping down on the couch next to his best friend.

"Takemichi you actually came."

"I needed a break from all the studying and all the other stuff," he nudged Chifuyu jokingly. Peeking over, he noticed a girl on the other side of Chifuyu, her hand gently placed on his thigh. She was too busy talking to some other friends on the opposite side of her to notice Takemichi next to Chifuyu.

"Who's that? Since when did you have a girlfriend?"

Chifuyu nearly spit out his drink.

"Girlfriend? Yeah no. Uh, this is Mel. She's Y/n's friend."

"Y/n? Is she here?"

Takemichi excitedly scanned the room for Y/n, yet she was nowhere to be found. Chifuyu raised an eyebrow glaring at Takemichi.

"... Takemichi. You're stressing me out. You're falling for her, aren't you?"

"... What? No, why would I do that? I love Hina," Takemichi's eyes fell on Hina from across the room. She was smiling while talking with a few of her own friends.

"Michi, why didn't you just stay away from Y/n?"

"I-I don't know. I felt like I needed to understand why the fuck Hina and I broke up."

"There's nothing to understand if you wasted your time coming back here just to fall for Y/n again. You were better off never talking to her. Now you made shit complicated. I see the way she looks at you. It's exactly how she looks at Mikey. You're fucked."

Takemichi gazed down towards his lap. Did he really fuck this up? He still could fix all of this. He spent too much of his life trying to save Hina and secure their future.

The sound of hollering grabbed Takemichi's attention as he realized a lot of the old crew had just made it to the house. Mikey shoved one hand in his cargo, clearly not wanting to be there. He sat down, man spreading as he leaned his face against his hand in boredom.

Is that why she wasn't with him?

"Yo, Michi."

"Mikey hey," Takemichi responded somewhat awkwardly. His brain didn't have enough time to process the word vomit that was about to escape from his throat.

"Has anyone seen Y/n?"

"Shouldn't you know the answer to that? I'm going to get a drink," Mikey mumbled before getting up from his seat.

Draken sighed, plopping himself down across from Chifuyu and Takemichi.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Oh nothing. Not like you ripped away the only girl who really understands Mikeys shit," Draken scoffed throwing his head back.

"What do you mean ripped away? I didn't even do anything."

"It's obvious she cares about you. Her and Mikey got into an argument over you and let's just say it didn't end well."

"I never meant for that shit to happen. Draken come on, you know I would rather him make her happy than sit here and make a mistake."

"Mistake? Y/n wouldn't be a mistake for anyone to make Michi so watch it. And clearly she'd rather you make her happy. You gotta fix this shit I'm tired of seeing Mikey jealous," Draken groaned before pulling out his dab pen from his pocket.

"Jealous?"

"I swear you are so fucking dense. Mikey really liked her. But now he's all moody and shit and where is all of this gonna get Y/n once she sees she has neither of you?" Mitsuya spoke up.

Takemichi's eyes widened. This was all his fault. He had to do something and he had to do it quick or else things wouldn't have changed and the future would have been the same. Taking his phone out of his pocket, he called Y/n's number, but the phone just rang.

"Fuck. I gotta go.. Can you guys tell Hina I'll be back later?"

"Wait where the fuck are you-"

"To fix this," he yelled out before running out of the frat house.

"He's totally gonna fuck this up again," Chifuyu sighed as they all watched him hurriedly leave.

"Yup," the twin dragons said in unison watching the time traveller leave.

Takemichi ran faster than his brain could think, and he found himself at the girl's front door in no time. Knocking harshly, he hunched over as he caught his breath from all the running.

Y/n opened her apartment door, seeing a breathless Takemichi with his hands on his knees as if he just ran a marathon.

"Takemichi what are you doing here?"

She pushed open the door farther pulling him inside.

He stood up straight, looking at her confused expression.

"Do you love Mikey?"

"Mikey? Why do you ask?"

"Do you love him? Yes or no Y/n."

Her eyes widened at his sudden sternness. She shoved her hands in her hoodie pocket, looking down at the floor.

"I mean yeah. I'll always love Mikey. But he's not ready and I think I'm starting to really like y-"

"Stop."

"No Takemichi. Im serious, would you fucking listen to-"

"I said stop. Mikey needs you. Just like Hina needs me. And I can't just give up the girl I fought so hard to be with-"

"You like me Takemichi. I know you do."

"Stop fucking lying to yourself. I don't like you and I never did. I just feel bad that you took my kindness the wrong way. Ok? That's it."

While it sounded like he was trying to convince Y/n of his nonexistent feelings, in actuality he was convincing himself. The girls face contorted into an expression Takemichi couldn't understand. Even he was shocked with the words that had just slipped from his mouth.

"Tell me I meant nothing to you. Tell me all the moments meant nothing," she took a step forward placing her hand on the side of his jaw.

Takemichi couldn't bring himself to say it. It was a lie he couldn't tell. Y/n leaned in slowly, placing her soft lips onto his. He grabbed her wrist, and pulled his lips away from hers.

"I'm sorry."

A/n: I apologize for the trauma that is to come... SIKEEEE IM NOT! LMAOOO.
This is a VERY complicated love story as, our loverboy Takemichi or Mr. Captain Save Ahh Hoe, is just as complicated. So buckle up.
