barou shōei — beauty (shōei) and the beast (you) ! pt.1
— you and shōei have known each other for so long that neither of you remembers a version of the life where the other wasn’t around.
— same neighborhood, same elementary schools, same everything.
— and, by the time you two were in middle school, it’s just kinda assumed that you’ll walk together, sit together most of the time and do projects together.
— shōei had always been particular.
— even as a kid, he lined up his shoes, kept his room spotless and got irritated when even a single thing was out of place.
— messy bag, even messier desk, half-finished stuff and loud opinions.
— the contrast has been here since day one.
— but, the difference is that shōei doesn’t react to your mess the same way he reacts to anyone else’s.
— he complains, yes, but most of all, he adjusts. he moves your things instead of throwing them away, cleans around you instead of yelling at you to leave.
— as kids, you used to invade his space constantly.
— sitting on his bed without asking, leaving candy wrappers in his room and going out of your way to touch things he clearly organized on purpose.
— but, when you’re not around, his routine feels off and that bothers him more than your messiness does.
— on the other hand, you grew up with the idea that shōei would always be there.
— he walks you home, carries your bag when it’s too heavy and waits for you every single time, even when you’re taking your sweet time.
— being in the same class was both normal (for you) and unbearable (for shōei).
— teachers seats you together because “you work well as a pair,” which is true even tho he hates admitting it.
— your desk i constantly cluttered while his is always immaculate.
— he notices every new piece of trash you add, every pen you lose, every paper you crumble instead of filling.
— he comments on it, of course, but it’s more tired than angry.
— sometimes, you catch him straightening your crumbled papers or push your stuff into a neater pile when he thinks you’re not looking.
— he never acknowledges it, even if you tease him about it.
A/N : okay so you might wonder why is it a part one ? well, that’s because i wrote the hcs in 2 parts ! it was too long to fit in one part, and i was too lazy to outright write a one shot…. so part one is mostly fluff and kinda laying out the context, while the 2nd part is kinda angsty ??? idk its about him leaving for blue lock soooooo. anyway part 2 will be posted tomorrow i think ? im probs gonna rewrite it so idreally know….
