Yosuke's POV:
"He's still asleep?" Dad scoffs, watching him from the kitchen.
"Uh-huh," I nod, chewing on a slice of toast.
"Should I wake him?" Nanako-chan asks.
"Let him sleep," Dad smiles. "He's clearly exhausted."
Even Teddie hasn't left his side since last night. He's just sorta... clung to Yu.
I think it's weird, but nobody else really says anything.
...Yu has strong arms. Not that I'm checking him out or anything, but... well, he does. And... Teddie easily fits in at least one of them from the way they're sleeping.
I wonder how many girls he's hugged.
Yu has a loveable structure. He's hot, yeah, but... There's something about him. He gives the most wholesome hugs than anyone else.
He's not too rough. It's not too short. It's... warm. Comforting, and... it just makes you feel like you could stay there for hours.
Not that I'd know, but... I've seen the way he hugs Nanako-chan. Maybe it's just because she's his cousin. Maybe... he just is that kind of guy.
"Do you want me to call your dad, Nanako-chan?" Dad asks. "I can tell him you're awake."
"Uh, that's okay," she smiles swiftly. "I'll wait until big bro wakes up."
"Big bro?"
"Uh-huh," she nods. "I love him a lot."
"Huh... Just like you, eh, Yosuke?"
"What?" I choke on the edge of my toast, coughing frantically.
"'Yu this', 'Yu that'," he chuckles.
He coulda worded it better... Geez.
"I think big bro loves you too, Yosuke-kun!"
"...Huh?" My eyes widen.
Nanako only smiles. "He likes you a lot."
"Y-yeah, well... The qualities of friendship, am I right?" I sigh.
I watch as his cell lights up on the table. I hesitate a moment before reaching for it.
Adachi
Adachi: Hey.
Adachi: Are you and Nanako-chan
alright?
I swallow hard. I shouldn't message him back, but... The hell does he want with Yu?
Yu: What do u mean?
Adachi: Dojima-san was
pretty pissed of last night.
Adachi: Just wanted to
know you were okay, is all.
Yu: What's he mad abt
Adachi: I got the kudos
for finding Kubo.
Adachi: Also, I got promoted!
Adachi: I think he's jealous.
Adachi: You know, considering
I'm his partner, and not the
other way around.
Adachi: I was just worried
if he bothered you again.

FanfictionKanji was just a decoy; Yu knew that. He also knew he had no chance with Yosuke. Even then, he couldn't let go. Because he didn't care what it took; he needed his partner more than anyone else. ~~~ cover credits - @CreamyGhost on twitter ~~~ Info: ...
