Mai's P.O.V
When I got to work I thought it was going to be a normal boring day until I found a random guy running around the shop stocking it
"Hey." I called out to him but he didn't respond "Hey what do you think you're doing, that's my job."
"What..?" He said in English
"Hun..!" I thought he was Japanese, he really looked - not to be racist - Japanese
"I said 'what are you doing here'." I said in English
"Oh, sorry" he said in Japanese "I didn't hear you and I was so shocked I spoke in English..." He groaned "I will never survive at school like this." Now I was confused
"Who are you..?" I asked in Japanese
"Me..?" He wasn't listening again he was so focused on what he was doing
"No, the person behind you, baaka."
"That last thing you said 'baaka' I believe, it sounded really cute..." I felt my face turn hot then He brought out a small notepad from his pocket "what does it mean."
Then I remembered his default language is English, so he doesn't know that mocha japanese.
"It's a shock you can speak this much japanese and understand what I'm saying but you don't know the meaning of baaka, it means dummy."
"Thanks." He said with a smile and wrote it down
"Now your name."
"Oh it's Ayato, spelt with the kanji for blessing and friend, and my last name is Kamado spelt with the kanji for kettle and household."
Now I was really confused he knows all about kanji and he doesn't know the meaning of dummy, what a real dummy.
"O...k, not that I asked on how to spell it."
"Wouldn't you tell me yours." He said in English
"Oh," that caught me off guard again he speaks japanese so fluently I forget his default language is English
"Sorry, i switched to English again." He said in Japanese
"Don't worry about it, I'm Mai Hiroshima, Mai spelt with genuine and love, and Hiroshima spelt with spacious and island."
"So Hiroshima..."
"Stop..." I wanted to mess with him a bit "you will call me senpai."
"What..? Why..?"
"Cause' I'm your senpai."
There was a long awkward pause
"Ok" he agreed without a second thought "so senpai, what did you say earlier."
"Oh yea, I said never walk I here as an employee without your apron."
"The bossman said that my apron will be ready tomorrow, that I don't need to work today l, but I was bored so I decided to come in today."
"Ok Kamado I'll show you the ropes."
From our little conversation I deduced that he's a nice kid but his eyes don't show any emotions, so after my shift I took him to the employee leisure room then he said something
"I knew something was wrong." He said
"What..?" I asked
"I'm not wearing my glasses."
"Your what..!"
He went outside and brought back a pair of glasses and he looked cute
"Woah..!" His face lit up with different emotions
"What..?"
"You look really cute."
"And you are really blunt." I walked over and slapped him
"Ouch, what was that for..?" He said in English "oh, sorry." He switched back to Japanese
"Don't worry about it." It's like his eyes' default state are emotionless
"Senpai..?"
"What..?"
"I want you to help me adjust to life in Japan and the language."
"Hun..?"
"What..!" He said in English "is it something I said..?"
"No, I'll gladly help."
"Thanks, senpai." He smiled with his mouth and eyes.
. . .
School is starting today and I can't wait for it to be over, I pretty much started enjoying work ever since Kamado got employed, it has been fun teaching him about...well stuff, on my way to school I met kaede and Taro, I'm pretty sure that they will be the reason that today wouldn't be boring or so I thought until I saw Kamado at the welcome assembly for first years, my juinor at work is my classmate..!
"What..!" I shouted
And at that exact moment about 250 pairs of eyes turned my way, but I was looking at his and his eyes were smiling, I turned bright red and ran to join kaede on the line.
After the assembly I didn't see him so I thought it was day dreaming about him, then I went to my assigned class and sat down on one of the chairs, controlling my breathing and heartbeat rate until this happened
"Hi senp..." I got up, put one hand over his mouth and I used the other to drag him out of the class.
"Mai, you didn't tell me he was yours." Kaede said with a smile "I would have told him more about you."
. . .
Ayato's P.O.V
"Hey senpai." Was all I said,then she grabbed my hand and mouth, I didn't notice we were in the same class until a girl came to talk to me "what's up senpai."
"What the fu*k are you doing here." She said in English
"Sorry senpai, I spoke in English again."
"That's not the point..." She trailed off "...call me by my name at school."
"O...k, Hiroshima..?"
"Hun..?" She looked a tad disappointed but she quickly regained her composure "now, to my other questions, what are you doing here."
"Do I have to tell you where I decide to school..?" I asked
"Oh..." She looked like a puppy and I was enjoying the scenery until my conscience spoke up
"I'm sorry for saying that..." I stretched out my hand "do you wanna go in."
"No." She said snobbishly, opened the door and went in without me
"What are you guys doing..?" She asked the large crowd at the door
"Who is he..?" The girl from earlier asked
"I'm Ayato Kamado."
"What..?" Hiroshima asked then I remembered, I...was...meant...to...speak...in... Japanese
"Don't sweat it dude I'll help you if she can't."
A guy came up to me and slapped my back
"What do you mean." I spoke in Japanese
"Oh snap..." He said in Japanese "...I spoke too much."
"Taro..." She said with a smile that said murder "...don't tell me that you haven't taken them down, and if you haven't you are still using them." She said with her head tilted to one side
"Mai..? I...can... explain." He said stammering and he ran out of the class
"Get back here, Pervert..!"
"What's up with them..?" I asked that girl from earlier since she knew so much about them
"You're a strange one aren't you..?" She asked
"Aren't you the strange one for replying a question with a question..?"
She smiled and took a deep breath
"Mai and Gojou have been friends since elementary school."
"Gojou..?" I asked
"We aren't close."
"Noted." She was sitting, I decided to move my face towards hers "your name..?"
"It's Kaede Sakura." She moved her face closer
"You really are a strange one," I moved my face away "I like you."
" the feeling is mutual."
"Let's go outside to get our seating arrangements."
We went outside to see that Goiou and Hiroshima have made up.
