please listen to 私の嘘 in the beginning and 18 友人A君を私の伴奏者に任命します towards the end while reading.
a nervous wreck, that’s what you were.
the text you sent, it was in the heat of the moment; it wasn’t as if you were actually prepared to give an essay to your tutor about why you liked him. considering how red your lips were from the anxious biting, you doubted make-up could hide the unease that wracked your body. and so you sat there, legs bouncing, a million different speeches going through your head before a knock interrupted your thoughts.
“coming!” you scrambled towards the door and mentally face palmed yourself— he couldn’t hear you. halting to a stop, you paused and your hand hovered hesitantly over the knob. this was it.
it was strange. it was only noon; the sun was partially hidden by clouds and yet when you opened the door, it had felt as if all of heaven just shined in on your face. perhaps the worry had gotten to your head.
you blinked a couple of times before your eyes focused on the boy in front of you. if you had stared a bit longer, you would have noticed that he was just as disheveled as you were, and he had only feigned his nonchalance
“so?” his voice, rough as ever, made you jump.
stepping to the side, you watched him fumble into your house and onto your couch, where your previously anxious state sat. as you closed the door, a hamster wheel spinning filled the awkward silence. you fiddled with your thumbs and made your way to sit on the same couch, though you sat a couple of feet apart. he liked you back so why were you so nervous?
take a deep inhale, alright? a little voice comforted you. it’s better to get this over quickly. you followed the little voice’s instructions and breathed in.
“bakugou katsuki: my classmate, my friend, my tutor, my crush. i know you don’t exactly understand how you feel towards me but i want you to know it’s okay. i’ll patiently wait and guide you if i need to so please don’t ever feel confused and alone.” your eyes were still glued to your thumbs and you glanced up to see him stare at you. a stare, with no exact expression written on it and you took this as a cue to keep going.
“i like you a lot— i don’t know why you think i wouldn’t. you’re smart, patient despite what others think. you’re honest with everything you say but you take responsibility when and if you hurt others.” the room felt stuffy and you breathed heavily. “i really do like you.”
if you had looked up again at that moment, you would’ve spotted the shock on bakugou’s face.
“so.. what now?” his question shook with uncertainty and he wanted to blow something up in that moment; he glanced at the hamster who flopped into it’s bedding, unable to meet your eyes. the tense feeling was stifling and you wanted to get rid of it, even if that meant saying something potentially very dumb.
“would you like to be hammy’s father?”
had it not been this situation, you would have laughed at how his brows furrowed in confusion before relaxing after realizing what you’d meant. his usual bitter demeanor was brought back and your heart swelled as he scoffed in fake annoyance.
“you couldn’t have worded that any weirder.”
“i could, do you want me to-,”
a couple seconds of silence went by before you both burst into laughter, though bakugou’s “laughter” was more of an ugly snort. still, it was cute in its own way. your giggles died down and you both sat comfortably on the couch, leaning against each other. bakugou watched as you held out your hand, pinky sticking out.
“promise you won’t break my heart?”
he rolled his eyes but didn’t hesitate to lock his finger with yours.
“that’s a given, dumbass.”
“then how about a promise to be each other’s first and last?”
his mouth hung open a little before he hastily nodded; he was your first. that realization played over and over in his head.
the boy who had never loved, nor cared for anyone ever in his life, was making a promise. the once bleak vision of his exploded with color when he looked at you. it felt so peculiar, to exist for so long in a familiar world only to all of a sudden feel vulnerable. and yet in a strange way, if it was you helping him, loving him, teaching him, he’d feel alright. he stared at the way your fingers intertwined and he tightened his hold.
♔ for sure, you will be my final love story. so, babe, please be my finale. —day6 ♔
