Your favorite (artist/anime/fixation) dropped some new merch and you knew you had to get your hands on it before everyone else could. It was pretty main stream so you knew it would sell out. Leaving your dorm quickly towards the local store you made your way into the isle, eyes scanning across the merchandise. There it was! On the top shelf, and it was the last one!

You stood up on your tip toes, reaching up, fingers barely grasping at the box. Your hand just spidered out, hoping that you could somehow stop brushing your fingers against it and instead grab it. Almost there! Your other hand braces yourself against the shelf so you didn’t fall over, reaching up further. Just as you were about to grab it (you really weren’t), a hand reaches up past you, pulling the box down from the shelf.

A sigh of relief left you as you dropped back to your heels, ”Oh, thank you!” you smiled and turned your head up to a blonde boy, who gazed down at you. You figured he was helping you out, being taller and grabbing the item for you so you didn’t have to strain yourself. How nice of him! Instead, he only smugly grinned, ”For what?”

You furrowed your brows in confusion, ”Well, for getting it for me because I couldn’t reach it.” you laughed nervously. Neito leaned his head down to level with yours and his grin widened, ”Oh you thought I would give it to you? It’s the last one! Maybe you should just wish to be born taller in your next life.” he snorted before turning on his heel and starting to walk away.
