This is a series of one shots of Masamune x Aki stories, since they're my favorite ship from Masamune-kun no Revenge. Enjoy!

Summary- Aki wants to return Masamune's umbrella, but he has been ignoring her.

It was all a part of his plan; get close to her during their date, let her have his umbrella on a rainy day, and ignore her. Cruel, yes, but it was to make her fall in love with him.

However, Makabe himself forgot his original desire for revenge on the Princess of Cruelty. Instead, for some reason, all he could think of was the girl he went out with- Aki Adagaki. Aki was his very first thought whenever he woke up and his very last thought whenever he fell asleep.

He noticed Aki's constant attempts to return his umbrella to him throughout the day. For some reason, whenever he walked by her, blatantly pretending that she wasn't there, his heart ached; in the corner of his peripheral field of vision, he could see the confusion and worry on her face.

One day, once lunchtime came, Makabe left the classroom, aimlessly wandering the halls of the prestigious school. That's when she showed up, a determined look on her face with clear anger.

"Makabe!" She yelled. "I think we need to have a little talk."

He smirked, basking in the fact that his actions had such an effect on the blue-haired tsundere. Being an Otaku sure has its perks, for all that the Manga he read has taught him. On top of that, he works out like hell and pushes himself to the limit to keep up his good looks and masculine charm.

"What do you want to talk about when there clearly isn't anything that needs talking for?"

That's when he tried to make a break for it and run past her. However, his attempts were brought to a halt when he suddenly felt a force on the tie on his uniform, pulling him to the left. Aki mercilessly pushed him to the ground. He cushioned his fall with his hands behind him.

"Ow!" He gasped for air. "Stop! I... Can't breathe!"

That's when he noticed her grip loosen a little, enough for him to get some oxygen but not enough for him to escape out of. Her facial expression softened and she blushed.

"I want to know something. Why have you been ignoring me, Makabe?" She asked, her voice unusually soft, very unlike the usual men-hating Aki Adagaki.

"H-Huh?! Adagaki, I-"

"You're horrible." She interrupted. Her voice was still soft, showing how much she cares about him, but her calling him horrible made her sound absolutely heartbroken.

She averted her gaze from him. Her eyes narrowed and tears threatened to flow out of her beautiful blue orbs at any moment.

Makabe could feel his heart racing, his own blush arising. Quickly sitting up, he said, "I'm sorry, Adagaki!" His eyes closed, head cast downwards.

Aki turned her head leftwards and let her gaze fall back onto him. "Tell me, why did you do it? Why were you ignoring me all day?"

Makabe had his eyes shut as tight as possible. "I'm sorry. I know that it was not cool of me to do that. I,,, I wanted you to fall in love with me; I heard that ignoring a girl that you think might like you will cause her to panic."

"Why would you want me to fall in love with you?" She asked, her voice still surprisingly soft as tears started to flow down her cheeks.

"Because." He opened his eyes and stared at her with adoration. "I really like you, Adagaki."

Makabe pulled Aki into him for a hug. Her eyes widened as he wrapped her arms around her. After a while, she returned the gesture, hugging his lower back.

"Idiot."

He grinned and closed his eyes, enjoying the moment. After some time, the two of them pulled apart from their embrace, his hands still on her shoulders. He looked her in the eyes with honest kindness.

"It's lunchtime, Adagaki. Yoshino isn't here today. Have you eaten yet?"

She shook her head in denial. Adorably.

"That's okay. We still have some time before class starts. I'll buy something for you. Is there anything in particular?"

She nodded and hummed a 'uh huh.' "Five croquettes, please?"

He blinked. "Just five? I thought you would want more."

"Nuh uh. I don't feel that hungry thanks to you. Jerk." She blushed furiously.

He chuckled. "Sorry. How about you wait for me in the shed where you usually eat in private with Yoshino? I'll fetch your food."

Before he decided to go to the cafeteria, in the process of standing up, he intentionally kissed her cheek, earning him an even redder blush. Aki looked like she either wanted to punch him and send him flying, the tsundere screaming, "Baka!" or curl up into a ball due to her embarrassment.

He returned at the shed with the five croquettes she requested. She sat in her usual spot in the back, her face still scrunched up with a blush of embarrassment.

"The food you requested, m'lady," Makabe said, holding out the five croquettes. She snatched them out his hand and ate them like a dog, not bothering to pay him back. He didn't really mind.

Sitting down next to her, Makabe looked at the girl next to him as she chowed down the food, still blushing.

"... W-What?" Aki inquired, nervous.

"Nothing. I just think that you're really cute when you're hungry."

She turned her head to look at him, blushing even more. "Why are you so kind to me?"

"Isn't it obvious? I've fallen in love with you, Aki." He smiled a genuine smile.

She blushed and closed her eyes, turning her face forward. "And I love you too, Masa-kun." She leaned her head onto his shoulder.

And just like that, Masamune Makabe and Aki Adagaki spent another typical afternoon together. But now, they're both finally happy.
