Sugawara's Route [Scenario One]
It was cold; really cold. The frigid, icy ground was slippery beneath your feet, having clumsily slipped a few times yourself to know. "Walking to class was a terrible idea," you mumbled to yourself, rubbing your gloved hands together.
You looked up all the people heading into the building before you, a little part of your college campus. You weren't exactly sure if this was even the right structure for your class, having this be your first day of college. Plus, the entire campus was a goddamn maze.
Sighing, you failed to notice the thick patch of ice under your foot as you took a step forward. Yelping as you slipped back, you felt a pair of arms awkwardly hold in place of falling on your ass.
"A-Are you alright, miss?" Looking up, you saw a tuft of gray hair, immediately sparking some memories in you.
"Suga?" You asked, feeling him help you stand back on your feet unsteadily.
"[Name]?" A smile grew on his lips. "Wow, it's been so long."
Shyly smiling, you twirled a lock of hair in around your finger. "Yeah, it has."
"When did you get back? I thought you moved after your second year."
"Oh, yeah, I did. I only got back about a week and a half ago to get set up," you said, letting your hair uncurl itself from your finger.
"Really? If I had known you were coming back, I would've helped you," he said.
"Oh, no, it's fine, but uh... you can help me with one thing?" You rubbed your arm nervously.
"Sure, what is it?"
Sheepishly, you asked, "Can you help me find my class?"

After getting Sugawara's help to your class, the two of you decided to meet up later for coffee; a warm drink on a chilly day.
"I didn't think you'd actually come," Sugawara said, looking at you sincerely.
"Do you really think I'd skip out on plans with an old friend?" You joked, smiling as you sat down in the seat across from him.
He chuckled. "No, I suppose not." He slid a cup of [favourite coffee] to you, watching as you stared at him in awe.
"You remembered?"
"Of course I did," he said. "You ordered it on our first date, correct?"
You blushed. "Right."
"You don't have to be shy, [Name]."
"I-I'm not!" You shouted defiantly. He only laughed.
You and Sugawara spent the remainder of the time catching up, occasionally dropping a terrible pickup line here and there.
The two of you walked in silence to the apartment you were currently staying in. Neither of you thought it to be good to ruin the peaceful quiet. There was no need to talk, all of it having been done over coffee.
For a split second, you felt Sugawara's hand nudge yours. You weren't sure if it was accidental or not until he rubbed his hand against yours once more. Suddenly, his hand slipped into yours with ease, a small smile on his face. You said nothing, only squeezing his hand a bit.
You were both content with the small action but felt something else needed to be done.
Once you had stopped at your apartment door, you turned swiftly, "Sugawara, I—!" You were cut off by a pair of chapped lips covering yours. For a second, you were shocked but quickly melted into it.
After a few seconds, you pulled away. "I guess that says everything, huh?" He said, his forehead touching yours.
You nodded. "Yeah..."
"Listen, do you... wanna try dating again?" He looked at you unsurely.
You smiled at him, pecking his lips once more. "I'd love that."
