Chapter Text
After Junpei got dressed, he headed downstairs to check if Akihiko was already waiting for him. To his relief, Akihiko was indeed patiently waiting for Junpei's arrival near the front door. Junpei couldn't help but admire him. Akihilo looked good in his brown corduroy jacket, black sweatshirt, tan corduroy pants, plaid scarf, and black leather boots. Junpei felt a sudden surge of nerves and decided to backtrack to Yukari's room. He’d knock on her door. Yukari opened her door to see overly distressed Junpei. His face was visibly pink, she’d raised an eye eyebrow.
“I thought you guys left already? What are you doing here??” she asked, 100% expecting him not to be in the dorm.
Junpei rubbed the back of his neck.
“I dunno man! I just saw him and panicked and went back here”
Yukari scoffed, her tone full of sarcasm “What? he was too pretty for you to handle?”
Junpei was dead silent.
“Oh my god..” Yukari pitched the bridge of her nose and grabbed Junpeis's ear.
“You got this far, now let's go—!” she’d drag him by the ear to the first floor, followed by winces from Junpei. By the time Yukari and Junpei arrived at the lobby, Akihiko was already having a small chat with Mitsuru. Yukari cleared her throat loudly to get their attention, Mitsuru looked at Yukari and waved at them.
"Iori is quite the sight for sore eyes tonight, wouldn't you say Akihiko?” inquired Mitsuru as she elbowed him. Akihiko was just staring at Junpei, hopefully, it was a good stare. Mitsuru would snap her fingers in Akihiko’s face which got his full attention.
“Yes—!” he jolted awkwardly. Yukari decided to shove Junpei forward as a form of motivation and smiled mischievously as Junpei looked back in annoyance.
“Have fun you two” waved Mitsuru as the two guys started heading out. Yukari looked at Mitsuru once they left.
“I say that was a success,” said Yukari, Mitsuru smiled and nodded.
“They’ll be fine”

The next day Yukari slept in late, hearing a knock at her door, it was Fuuka!
“Yukari-chan are you ready to go?” She asked
Yukari panicked and started frantically looking for an outfit
“Haahah—! Give me a second fuuka!!”
