Chapter Text
It was an average day in the Sosaki household, Mandalay had left for the weekend with the other wild wild pussy cats they said something about an “important mission” or whatever leaving Eri and Kota home alone, Eri was busy in her room while Kota was in the living room brain storming with his friends
You see Kota had never once experienced love, no girl had ever actually tried showing interest in him, even in his second year of UA, to him this couldn’t be anything more than embarrassing, even Dai who’s still a first year and had a girl crushing on him so what could he possibly be doing wrong? So he came up with a bad plan to get a date, this (at least to him) was the most important mission of his life
***
“So guys, what are your thoughts?”
Kota said he had a smug expression on his face while looking at his friends desperate for good feedback, Koki tilted his head, while Dai Katsuma forced a smile
“I say…good idea!”
Katsuma smiled he didn’t wanna possibly hurt Kota’s feelings, but his idea was just awful
“Thank you so Koki?”
Kota moved closer to his friend he was trying to his best to keep his mouth closed but it seemed Kota was pushing him
“It’s…bad…”
He said it with such a Serious edge in his voice, you would expect he was talking about something else, Kota immediately ripped up his presentation, if Koki thought it was awful there’s no point in it
“You're right… it’s stupid”
Kota fell back on the couch putting his head in his hands biting his cheek, Koki cleared his throat uncrossing his arms
“ Truth be told… I don’t understand the worry…you don’t need a girlfriend…you have me…and our other friends such a pointless endeavor”
Kota scoffed at Koki’s words of course he would have that opinion, he doesn’t see the real value in romance and how much joy it brings to someone’s life
“Because it’s important!”
Koki sighed before He could even get another word out Eri popped in
“Hey everyone~”
Koki and Katsuma waved hi and Kota quickly hid his ripped up presentation
“Get out of here! We’re talking about important stuff”
Kota tried swatting her away while Eri sat down on the couch, she wasn’t going to move an inch
“We’re actually talking about Kota’s love life”
Koki smiled as Kota turned red with anger, Eri immediately stood up grinning
“It’s none of her business!”
Kota yelled at Koki causing him to step back while Eri grinned
“Really!?”
Eri cupped her hands together her eyes lit up like stars this was just gold
“ It’s not that big of a deal…I just needed some help”
She held onto katsuma’s shoulder for support. The thought of it was hilarious. Kota really had to hold a meeting about his empty love life???
“Come on! It’s not that bad right guys?”
Koki gave Katsuma a glare not to say anything, while Eri cleared her throat
“if you really need love advice, why didn’t you come to me??”
She immediately got a smug look on her Face while Kota perked up
“I’m in a relationship with a beautiful girl! And I love girls too!!”
She started shaking Kota’s shoulders
“ I’m extremely qualified for this! Why can’t I join?”
Kota smacked her hands away while clearing his throat
“So what everyone in this room likes girls”
Koki clears his throat a little before standing up and placing a hand on Kota’s shoulder causing him to calm down,
“But…can’t believe I’m saying this you might be right ”
Kota really thought about it why didn’t he consult Eri she was way more useful for this then his very single friends
“ Does this mean I can go back to studying?”
Katsuma spoke Nervously he felt like he was being held hostage
“No… this mission needs all hands on deck”
Eri paced around the room she pushed Kota Out of the center while Thinking about how they’ll approach this
“ It’s just getting me a date?”
Kota couldn’t help but be really confused but Eri had a smug look on her face. This was life or death! Kota was the most toughest match making case she’s ever done
“KOTA YOU DON'T GET IT! I am an artist and you are my muse…I need this to be beautiful”
Kota then started clapping Eri was right this project had to be the most beautiful love story ever! Katsuma on the other hand stood in shock
“I don’t think it’s-“
Katsuma was immediately interrupted, by Kota
“No! This mission…is more important than our lives!”
Eri and Kote had a fire lit under them, no matter what it takes, or the horrors they’ll face they will get him a date, meanwhile Koki just sighed and Katsuma shook he really just wanted to go home
“So… what do we do first?”
Koki finally spoke up before this his words “dumb idea” went any further it caused Eri and Kota to quickly stand back, realized they didn’t have an actual plan,
“Well…I have old research let me grab that”
Kota nodded while Koki couldn’t help but stand there puzzled,
Eri rushed to her room, while the guys decided to stay in the living room and wait, Koki looked at Kota he couldn’t help but worry was he really THIS determined to get a date,
***
Meanwhile Eri was searching under her bed She knew it was under there somewhere, but Instead of finding her research, she found her old middle school notebook, she carefully placed her hand on the cover,
“ research” she mumbled to herself before carefully opening it, just a slight glance at it,
