A/N POV

Days were passing normally. Sure Y/N encountered some crazy fangirls of Ryota trying to break them apart. But Ryota made sure to set an example for the ones who tries to mess with him and his relation. Most of the time it was Y/N to make an effort in their fake relation.

She knew Ryota made it clear that no strings would be attached but the way he protected her from all those others and made her feel good about her existence was everything she needed to fall for him.

They both used to have lunch at rooftop made by Y/N. She learnt cooking just for him. Its not that he asked her to but she just felt like doing it for him. No matter how much she convinced herself that she is doing all this just to return the favor but deep down she could also not deny the fact that she was falling, falling hard for Ryota.

The school soon ended. It became a habit of Ryota to walk Y/N home. They could use his car but Y/N always insisted on walking since she can spend more time with him and Ryota could reject the idea but he did not. Why? Who knows?

Y/N was waiting for Ryota to show up. He told her that he has some unfinished work to do so he left during lunch but has not returned till now. To say Y/N was not worried would be an understatement it was killing her inside. She searched every place of school but in vain Ryota was not found.

The only place that is left to be checked is his hideout. The last time she went there with Ryota was the time she promised to herself that she would never go there as it sends creepy vibes to her brain. But she did not have much of a choice so she went to look out for Ryota .

'It won't be that bad! Will it?' She thought to herself and went to look for Ryota . Her breathing kept increasing as the distance towards the hideout was decreasing. To her relieve when she reached there she spotted Ryota but he had a whole bunch of a army behind him. Ryota noticed her presence but instead of shooing her off he smiled at her and motioned her to come towards him.

Y/N gulped nervously and went beside him. He wrapped his hands around Y/N's waist pulling her closer.

"So you brought treat for us?" The man on the other side spoke while licking his lips. Ryota just laughed at his statement pulling Y/N more closer towards himself.

"So you think you are qualified enough to have someone as perfect as her? Ptff... the last time I saw something like you I flushed it and she would do the same." Ryota said smirking at the other. The man gritted his teeth. "Atleast I got brains and can run my gang with my lead instead of you who uses brite strength." The man said making Ryota have another laugh at his statement.

"You really are too much dellusional you know that. Because if I would ever wanted to suicide I would climb off your Ego and jump to your IQ. Thats how dumb and egoistic you are." And this was the moment Y/N could not hold her laugh. She let out a small Ptff before exploding the halls with laughters. "Roasted!" She told trying to held her laugh.

Ryota never liked anyone inturrepting his talk or to laugh like that in any gang meeting but somehow Y/N's laughter managed to calm him down. He has not seen her laugh like this so he was glad to be the reason. She wore the brighest smile in his eyes, he could not realise that he had already fell for her subconciously. All those time spent with her has already made a place inside his heart.

"See, you are nothing but a laughing stock." Ryota smirked at the said man. "And about invading your area you say? Sorry to break it to you but from today here onwards it will be our area. So get your luggage and get lost from there." Ryota said his cold eyes piercing the said man's soul.

Ofcourse the man did not let his base his area go so easily. So the fight broke out. It was until Ryota beat the man near to the death, Y/N was shocked to see Ryota that way and tried to stop him. Ryota send glares to the man and saw him running.

He glanced at Y/N, his eyes soften for a while but regained his cold eyes again. " See this is what we do? Fight and rule." V said while ruffling Y/N's hair.

After walking for a while in the silence Ryota decided to speak up.

"Pack your things till 8 pm. You will be moving in with me." Y/N was surprised and confused.

Ryota shook his head and sighed. "They will spread about you being with me and might come after you. Since you are not capable of defending yourself let me do the honor of protecting you." Ryota said keeping his blank face as usual.

"If that was the case then why did you asked me to come towards you back there?" Y/N asked bluntly.

"To be honest my dear dumb fake girlfriend, I did not call you towards me. I swatted my hands for you to go back to which you interpreted the exact opposite. Tell me why am I not even surprised?" Ryota said shaking his head while Y/N just laughed at her own clumsiness.

'We get along very well.' She thought to herself before entering her home and start packing.
