warnings: death of a loved one, ignoring feelings, being blamed for coping methods, self deprecating thoughts, hurt-comfort, angst with a happy ending
summary: you lose the person you love most in battle, what happens when you get accused of not caring? what will Jason think of you?
The sharp clash of sword against sword echoed the field, yells and taunts slung openly across the raging crowd of soldiers. The smell of sweat, blood and dirt weighed heavy in the air. A setting youâd become all too comfortable in from your years of conditioning and quests.Â
A piercing scream was what finally broke your battle mindset, an echoing cry of sorrow that drew you back to a childhood memory you didnât even realise you still recalled. A cold, biting feeling washed over you, leaking into your brain and clawing its way into your heart. But you couldnât stop. Too many lives depended on you not screwing this up. Too many people relied on your commands to win this battle so something as simple as feelings had no place here, you had to stay impartial and objective.Â
Taking off your helmet with a jarring thunk onto the bench registered as waves of high pitched ringing in the fuzzy haze your mind sits in. Too much had happened and there was still no time to deal with it. There were problems left to solve, the battle had gained you some ground sure, but there were still a million things left to do and you couldnât just slack off whilst everyone else was doing their best for the camp.Â
The walk to the makeshift meeting tent felt adjacent to wading through quicksand, each step met with increasing resistance, pulling you down. A sharp call of your name draws your attention, a biting tone harsh enough to break skin. A girl you knew like the back of your hand. His best friend. You like her and the two of you got along well in the time youâd known each other, but gods this couldnât mean anything good.Â
âWhat is wrong with you?â
What?
âHow can you not care?!? Heâs dead. Heâs GONE and all you care about is winning this stupid war!!â
You hardly register the next thing she says as you run, the wind whipping your ears as the tears burn your eyes. You donât realise the secondary voice calling after you, just needing to get away from those eyes that burned into your soul, searing your skin with unwavering hatred.Â
You run as long as you can, every heave of air makes your lungs feel like theyâve been filled with molten lava. Legs like tubes of jelly steps becoming wobbly and wavering as you try to steady yourself, before you give up and settle on a moss covered log, closing your eyes to allow the pounding of your heart to subside.
You couldnât hide from the reality of your situation anymore, the person you care about most in the world is gone and heâs never coming back.Â
The sound of footfalls against the forest floor make you crack one of your eyes open, a heart clenching drought of anxiety washes over you at the thought of her having followed you to dish out more accusations. Relief loosens your muscles at the sight of Jason Grace, a camper much more experienced than you at leading, youâd looked up to him, aspired to be him. What must he think of you now?
âAm I a bad person?â
Your voice trembles embarrassingly as you ask. A beat of silence follows, too short for the doubt that festers in your gut. Itâs not fair really, youâd barely given him a chance to respond. But you just keep talking.
âI care. I REALLY care, more than anything. ButâŚpeople were depending on me, I couldnât just break down, the gods know how much I wanted to. I feel like Iâm being torn apart and rebuilt with missing pieces every second I think about him. I just-â
A sob wracks through your body, your hand cupping your mouth as you double over and let the tears flow. A strong arm wraps around you, hand splayed across your shoulder blade, fingers curling around your arm, tugging you up and into his chest. Your hands find purchase in his purple camp shirt, crinkling it where they clench, his other hand coming to press gently to the back of your head, pushing it into his shoulder.Â
âYou, brave girl, are not a bad person. Youâre carrying the weight of a leader on your shoulders. It's a wonder youâve held it together this long. Take all the time you need, alright? Weâll go back there together, if she canât see how much you care, then she doesnât know you at all.â
You push yourself further into his warmth, not yet ready to leave the blanket of safety heâd seemed to wrap you in. Â
warnings: pure fluff, reader regrets their gift choice for a bit
It wasnât hard for Matt to tell that you were hiding something, the violent pounding of your heart every time the topic of dates and valentines day had come up was consistent for almost 3 weeks.
He found it endearing how hard you were trying to keep your secret. But unfortunately for you, he had a bit of an unfair advantage in this area, it was like putting a pro football player against, well, you.Â
It wasnât like he was trying to catch you outâŚit was just a little hard not to.
Which is why, when he came home from a day at the office with Foggy, he did his best to act surprised at your gesture. To act like he couldnât hear your bustling around his apartment from down the street, anxiously busying yourself. To act like he couldnât smell the residual fabric on your hands from your âsecret projectâ over the past few weeks.
When he stepped through the front door he feigned shock hearing you in his living room. as you ran to him, throwing your arms around his broad shoulders and wishing him a happy valentines day.
Immediately you knew something was up.Â
Of course he knew.
At least you still had one up on him, he didnât know what your gift wasâŚright?
Youâd noted his hatred for certain fabrics and his comparison to sandpaper early on in your relationship, so, being a creative person, you decided to show how much his comfort mattered to you with a gesture.
 After locating the softest possible fabric from his list of safe materials, you got to work, you crafted a large blanket for him, large enough for the both of you to sit comfortably under it. In an effort to make it interesting for him through touch, you created patterns and shapes on the top side of the blanket, hiding your stitches to reduce contact.Â
Despite how much youâd loved the idea, waiting for him to come home had allowed time for uncertainty to fester in your gut, what if he thought it was stupid? After all the work youâd put in, youâd probably cry. The idea of him hating it and pretending to like it made you feel even worse.Â
But, when you gave it to him, allowing him to feel your handiwork atop the project, the bright smile that lit up his face told you all you needed to know.Â
Steve was a classic gentleman, flowers and opening doors engrained so deeply into his brain from growing up in the 1920âs. Which is probably why he was a little reluctant when you suggested he let you plan your activity for the day, but of course being Steve, he said yes.Â
He showed up at your door early in the afternoon, meeting you at the doorstep with a bouquet of your favourite flowers and that stupidly charming smile. Heâd dressed as best he could based on your horrendously vague description of your plans but, as youâd reminded him while he tried to coax more information out of you, you believed heâd look good in anything.
âWear something you don't care about and bring a nice change of clothesâ
Is all youâd told him, prompting him to express lighthearted fear of what you had planned for him.
You let him in with a soft peck on the cheek, stepping away to put the flowers into some water.Â
He stepped into your living room with no specific expectations, however he still found it in himself to be surprised at what he saw laid out in front of him. Across the coffee table laid various assortments of art supplies, mostly focused around paint. Fresh jars of water sat ready in the center, with canvases propped against random household objects, a candle stick and some kind of ceramic figure. He listened out to you in the kitchen, filling the vase, and its then that he notices the music playing from the corner of the room. A record player that you certainly didnât have before was playing the music of a random singer from the 40âs.
Meekly you peeked your head around into the room, craning your neck to see Steve's reaction. Youâd hoped to give him something that felt normal. Remind him of the thing that was constant in his life, even before he was Captain America. Art.Â
The softening of his brow and the gentle smile that graced his lips told you that youâd at least not offended him enough to have him storm off and leave. He set his bag containing his change of clothes down and kneeled to the floor. You followed suit, trying to act as if you werenât just watching him like some kind of fan, and you began to list off the many items you had in front of you.Â
As you watched his beautifully calm focus while he worked, you decided the two of you needed nothing more. Sneaking off under the guise of going to the bathroom, you cancelled your reservation and ordered take out for delivery.

Youâd been planning this out for weeks, the one day a year where you could finally show your boyfriend just how much he means to you. Youâd thought as hard as possible and worked to plan out things that you knew he would love, that speak to how well you know him. In the craze of it all it was no surprise you let some things slip your mind.
Youâd focussed so hard on what you were going to be together, so much on keeping it a secret that you kinda forgot to mention it to Steven. So, as a result of your horrendous planning, youâd both planned something.Â
It started early, with Steven waking you up with your favourite breakfast in bed followed by you presenting a gift youâd decided screamed Steven the moment you saw it.
The problems began when you both started getting ready for the day, you tried to give him a nudge in the direction of how dressed up he should be, and he just looked at you blankly with a tilted head. Blinking a few times he righted his head and seemed to decide this was just you wanting a certain vibe for the day and moved on.Â
Only when he took the lead and started leading you in what was the opposite direction of the train station you needed to be at in 10 minutes did you realise your fuck up.Â
âUhh Steven?â
A soft hum in response
âSteven.â
He felt the tug of your hand as you stopped behind him, keeping them linked as he turned around.
âCome on love, weâre gonna be lateâ
âYes we are so why are you taking us this way?â
âWhat are you talking about?â
You both stared for a moment
âOhâ
âYeah, ohâŚwhat are we gonna do Steven?â
You both shared what you had planned out for the day, him having apparently made the same mistake you did. Your heart melted as he went on about the details of it, the extent of how much care heâd taken to make you happy, releasing a swarm of butterflies in your chest.Â
In the interest of making things fair, you each compromised, losing an aspect of your plans to fit the others.Â
I mean, would it really be a date with Steven Grant if the most avoidable things didnât go wrong?

Like most people in the world, youâd followed the great âCaptain Americaâs extremely public life story. From the memorials posted in his honour youâd waded through on spontaneous city trips with your friends, to the blaring and very hard to miss headlines when heâd been pulled from the ice. Youâd cheered with friends and it had felt much more like watching a movie than a live event. Youâd watched with bated breath as he and the avengers stopped the city from being destroyed by an alien raid. It was probably the reason you found it so hard to imagine him as a regular person, doing anything other than saving the world.Â
But there he was, not even 2 metres away from you, and he was DEFINITELY a real person, he was also most certainly not saving the world at the moment. Unless taking down bad guys involved scouring the herbs and spices aisle of a grocery store. He must have been used to being gawked at because, despite your closeness and glaringly obvious staring problem, he remained focused on the rack of spices in front of him.
Up close, you could make out a lot of details that were lost in the dusty haze that marred the quality of the cameras that stalked him after a battle, or the grainy, deteriorating memorabilia plastered along the walls of museums. Details like, for example, the deep parallel creases that ran vertically between his brows, a physical manifestation of his years brooding and world hero stuff.Â
You knew you should stop staring. Of course you shouldâŚbut oh my god he was gorgeous.Â
When he finally made his choice and turned away from the shelf, his eyes met yours and a soft but deliciously charming smile graced his chiseled features. You swore your neck had never moved as fast as it did, whipping to face the items in front of you, trying your best to act interested in the various types of herbs laid out at your eye level. You could feel his eyes lingering on you for a moment, and you did all you could to stop yourself from returning the look.
The next time you saw him on tv, it felt different. Less like a show, and more like watching a person. A real person that you had seen fighting to keep your home safe. You couldnât wait til you needed to stock up on groceries again, so that maybe, you could run into him again, and thank him personally. Take the chance to show your gratitude.

A/n: wip to test out a different idea to usual
Summary: In a sleep deprived state you meet a mysterious stranger on a dating site you'd all but given up on
Masterlist
You wish you could say you met him before he was a pro hero, but that would just be a lie. You also wish you could say you werenât with him for his money, but that would just be another lie. Not that you actually have to talk about your relationship with the pro hero, it being a secret and all
You met him on a pretty sketchy website that advertised âsugar daddiesâ, in desperate need of help paying off your university student loans, you caved and began searching. You met a bunch of duds who wanted nudes upfront, that just made you shudder and consider abandoning the website all together. It was like a normal dating app, being immediately sexualised or given the driest conversation known to man and expected to somehow be interested. It was absolutely exhausting, and you began to use the site less and less. Your work and school commitments getting in your way.
Most hope was lost after a couple of months of texting the older guys on the site. Until one night you were idoly scrolling, laid on your side under your cosy covers. You tried, and failed to stifle a yawn, eyes watering as they clench shut, your right hand came up to your face and the back of your hand pressed against your gaping lips. The glare of your phone caused you to squint your now sensitive eyes, the ding of a notification from your semi-abandoned website drawing your eyes to the time in the corner of the screen.
2:14am
Well shit. You were SUPPOSED to go to sleep early, your recent sleep debt building to an unfixable amount with your intense workload from your courses and all the extra shifts you picked up in an attempt to simply get by, to just pay your rent.Â
The message had come through from an anonymous sender, never a good sign. But you guess in your sleep deprived state, that little voice of logic got rugby slammed into a wall. Before you thought twice, your index finger inched towards the notification, opening up the site. The message read:
âHello! Tell me about yourself!â
Well that's not much to go on, but that's expected of an anonymous account-ooo maybe he was famous or something and didnât want his fans to find him! That means lots of money, this site may work out after all. Either way, him asking about you and not dominating the conversation talking about only himself was a first. Too good to be true.
You warily stare at the message for sometime, before giving into impulse and deciding to respond, giving him your name and other basic details that werenât too personal. His responses came almost immediately, shocking you a little at first but you quickly got used to it. As the conversation crawled along, your responses slowed, unable to keep up with the previous pace, your eyelids began to droop, your tired state preventing you from supporting their weight. As they begin the water and the fuzz takes over your vision, you just barely manage to make out the three dots disappearing and reappearing, before a short but sweet message comes through.
âGet some sleep, its late â¤ď¸â
A small smile tugs at your lips before your eyes lock shut, phone slipping from your hands into the mattress, the conversation left open.Â
In your first year at ua high school, you had been so excited to be accepted into UA HIGH SCHOOLSâ support course. A chance to pursue your life's dream, working in real time with future heroes, the best of the best. YOU would get to attribute to their success and work on their complex costumes. You knew it was going to be competitive, and you were ready for that, completely 100% devoted to your goal. Nothing could distract youâŚexcept maybe a really cute boy from the hero course.
Early into your second year, maybe the third or fourth week, a bubbly girl with a million questions came knocking on the door of the workshop. She cut you off before you could answer any of her questions, bouncing around and expressing her curiosity about your quirk.Â
You clear your throat to gain her attention. âAre you here for something? Is there an issue with your support items?â
At the mention of her problem, she re-focuses and begins rambling about her new ideas for modifications on her suit, mostly leaving it open ended for your creative freedom, simply suggesting solutions to go along with her side effects. You noted down all of the problems, branching off with a mix of yours and her designs as you go, only nodding and humming to show her you were listening.
After that original (unplanned) consultation, you saw the girl more and more. Whether it was you seeking her out to check the measurements and fit of your support items or her coming eagerly to observe your progress, you were basically seeing her everyday. You learnt how to slip your short answers into your conversations with her, actually becoming quite close. Your relationship developed into walking through the halls together and eventually hanging out, outside of school.    Â
In your third year you were definitely friends, however a little less close, you went from best friends to seeing each other maybe once a week. This wasnât to say that you guys had a fight or grew apart or anything, your schooling responsibilities simply took priority, and with her being a member of UAs âbig threeâ she barely had time for goofing off with you like you used to. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
You were okay with this, knowing you both had your dreams, but sometimes you wish you could just go back to your second year and be carefree and gossip about the cute boys at your school with her. Now you pass each other in the halls with a smile and a wave, going your separate ways. You see her with the two other members of the big three, Mirio Togata and Tamaki Amajiki.
Wow.Â
They were so cool.
You had seen Amajiki around the school in your first and second years. You didnât find out his name until he became a member of the âbig 3â. It was also impossible to have never heard of Togata with his bubbly voice always filling the halls with laughter. Although you had never spoken to either of them you respected them.
You had pretty much resigned to your friendship with Nejire ending at this point, that is until she came knocking on the door of the workshop, b-lining straight for you. You feel a sense of nostalgia at the sight, a slight twinge in your chest at the thought that she was only going to speak to you for her costume, not because she actually wanted to talk to you.
âHI [READER]â
âHey NejireâŚâ
You dropped the tension in your shoulders when she asked you to hangout with her for her birthday, skipping off happily when you acceptedÂ
As you walk towards her door, present in hand, angst washed over you. You knew none of her friends and there was no way in hell sheâd stay with you all night, that would mean staying still and with one thought in mind. You loved the girl but outside of hero work she wasnât the most focussed, and you are no longer one of her close friends, or so you think.Â
After greeting Nejire, wishing her happy birthday and handing over her present, you situated yourself on the couch, nursing your drink of choice. You spoke to a couple of strangers who came to rest their legs over the course of an hour, the conversations were mostly about what school you went to, what course you were in. Simple things. It was enjoyable, if not a little awkward, you liked to think you made a few friends. You even danced with a few of these people, getting pulled onto the dancefloor by your wrists.
Eventually you got tired and needed to rest your feet, only to find a person, who you realised upon closer inspection to be Amajiki, in your safe space. After a moment of contemplation, you chose to sit near him, but not so close as to spook him, having heard of his timid nature from rumours around the school. Â
You gave him a smile and a soft hello, with minimal response you simply spoke at him, you realise upon reflection that this was pretty much exactly how you and Nejire became friends. The more you spoke the more he responded, seemingly getting more and more confident the longer he knew you. A feeling that you wanted to attribute to your intoxication, was that blooming, warm feeling in your chest at the sight of his smile. You two giggled as you told him stories of your failed designs and items, and he told you some of his failed ideas for use of his quirk in battle, ones that backfired dramatically.   Â
About 4 hours into the night, a semi-drunk Nejire flopped herself over your lap and began talking to you about how good of a friend you were and how sad she was that you two didnât talk very much. It made a very different feeling take over your chest. Contrasting your earlier floatiness with a heavy feeling that weighed you down. You gently rubbed her temple as her murmurs slur and she mutters out an
âI donât feel so goodâ
You moved as fast as you could to direct her head away from your shoes, lifting the upper half of her body and swinging an arm over your shoulder to help her up. You sent Amajiki an awkward, tight lipped smile as he grabbed her other arm and you both hauled her towards the kitchen sink.
Safe to say the romance was gone as the sound of her bringing up her lunch echoed off the sink, your hand tightly clasped her hair above her head while Amajiki awkwardly watched with his hands outstretched searching for a way to help.
When you returned to school the following Monday, you expected things to be as they were before. But you couldnât be more wrong. As you sat on the floor and changed your shoes, you heard Nejire calling out with you, followed closely by Togata and Amajiki.
You faltered a little, not knowing how to react to this new situation. After all, you barely had any interactions with the three, especially as a group and you still hadnât talked to Togata, his attention having been constantly occupied at the party a few days ago.Â
â[Reader]! Hi! Tamaki keeps asking about you so I thought Iâd just bring him to talk to you!â
Well that was unexpected. Tamaki's face went beet red and he tried to run away, only stopped by Togata grabbing him.
âAnd I wanted to hear what all the fuss was aboutâ
Well at least you could say Togata had spoken to you now. He shoved Amajiki towards you and they began walking off.
âWeâll catch up laterâ Nejire whispered in your ear.
Amajiki stumbled and caught himself, then straightened himself up quickly. Your conversation was a little short and awkward, Amajiki no longer fuelled by the freeing intoxication like the other night. After a few minutes of sitting together talking, you see him pause and take a deep breath, clearly mustering up the courage for something.
âDo you think you would, maybe, if you wanted, goâŚon a date?...with me?âÂ
He managed to ask you, stammered and awkward but you found it charming.
You giggled a little, a bright smile taking over your face.
âIâd love to!â
Of course you accepted.
You met with Nejire and had a gossipy debrief, meanwhile Amajiki was getting grilled by Togata.Â
âUghh, Mirioâ
âCone on Tamaki, tell me how your little kitten-heart managed to survive you asking out your crush!â
âAuhhhhhhhhhâ
He covered his face with his hands and folded into himself, cursing the school for implementing dorm systems so he couldnât escape his friend.
âCome on MirioâŚmy hearts gonna explodeâ
It wasnât long before Nejire came bursting in, leaving him with two interrogators to live through.
When it came time for your date, Nejire insisted on helping you get ready, which you were insanely grateful for. You were going to a cafe, as per Mirios suggestion, simple but still nice for a first date. It did however leave you with the dilemma of trying to look good but desperately trying not to overdress. Nejire was your literal lifeline, letting you model a million different outfits and variations that were so similar but also so different.
Tamaki was having a similar issue with Mirio in his dorm room, except Mirio led the charge, giving him different outfits and forcing him to come out of his closet to show them off.Â
After the two of you finally finished getting ready, you met outside of your classâ dorm rooms. The walk to the cafe was quiet, so much so that youâre pretty sure you could hear two sets of footsteps distantly trailing behind you. Of course.
The longer you two spend together the freer the conversation gets.
âHow is your work study going? You work with Fatgum right? That must be so cool.â
âIt's good experience, but sometimes I think he only scouted me to torment meâ
âHaha, Iâm sure that's not true, he scouted you because of your strength and your drive to be a hero, Iâm sure of it!â
He flushed a little at the compliment, putting his head against the table.Â
âUhâŚthank you. Anyway, how's your support work going? Any new inventions?â
At the mention of your work, you fall into a ramble, about all of your newest creations and the ideas you plan on working on. Your dream brings out a deep passion in you and without realising it, you talk for almost thirty minutes without letting him get a single word in. Not that he tried, he just listened with a soft smile on his face, his cheek resting on his hand as he gazed at you like you were telling him how you hung the stars yourself. When you realise how long youâd been rambling, you cough and clear your throat, feeling a little embarrassed.Â
âSo ummm, do you have any hobbies? Surely you must have a life outside of UA.â
Your date consists of the typical get-to-know-you questions, and as you reach the bottom of your drinks, you both agree it's probably best to wrap things up.
Unlike most first dates, your conversations donât have to end when you leave the restaurant, as you donât have to go your separate ways, instead getting to walk home together, you both continue to talk, you do the most. When you complained that you were cold, he draped his jacket over your shoulders like a true gentleman, with a flush on his cheeks.
When you reached your classâ dorms, he gave you a sweet goodnight, saying he enjoyed the date.
âGoodnight Amajiki, I enjoyed it too, I hope we can do it again, if youâd likeâ
Before you can think twice and be stopped by your brain, you leaned forward and kissed his cheek, smiling at his adorable blush. You watched as he bolted away, too overwhelmed to function.
A soft giggle escapes your lips as you watch him disappear in the direction of his dorm, this was definitely going to be an interesting year.
Fast forward to graduation day, you cheered for your boyfriend, Tamaki, and he for you. You excitedly watched your best friend, Nejire and your now close friend Mirio walk the stage. When it was your turn to walk, their screams noticeably stood out among the rest.
Who knew this would all come from a simple party invitation.
Nejire wishes she could say she set the two of you up at the party on purpose, but she didnât. She actually didnât consider that you and Tamaki would even interact, him usually being too nervous to talk to new people. She had a one track mind, and her main motivation was her hope that it would rekindle your friendship.

Warnings: self depricating thoughts, pining, reader being excluded/ avoided, general fluff, reader is gender neutral
Summary: You've had a crush on your feathered schoolmate for over 2 years, what happens when you run into each other at a concert. Inspired by @faulty-writes Tokoyami x Goth Reader headcannon.
Many people overlooked the feathered hero in training, setting their sights on the flashier students such as Bakugo and Midoriya. But you had your sights set on the quiet, dark boy. His fascinating quirk, his laid back attitude.
As a member of general studies, there werenât many chances for you to talk to him. Not that you would be able to anyway, having been a stuttering mess the first and last youâd tried to talk to him in the hallways, asking him to move so you could get past. Even if you could talk to him, why would a future pro hero want someone like you, not even nobel enough to try out for the hero course.
He was so amazingly unique and interesting and you were just you, who gets shunned by your classmates for the way you dress, accessorise your uniform and even the music you listen to. You had to buy heavy duty headphones to listen to your music in the dorms without getting dirty looks and angry visits from your classmates telling you to âturn that shit offâ no matter how quiet it was playing. You know for a fact that you watch the same show as a few of them, having overheard them talking about it but been too anxious to interrupt, afraid of being judged. They werenât mean per say, but they were always a little standoffish with you, like they expected you to pounce on them at any moment. You were able to work civilly on group projects, but they never tried to connect with you like they did with each other, and you were too nervous to start the conversations on your own.
The first time you saw Tokoyami was in the sports festival in your first year, watching with awe as he kept his team in the running during the cavalry battle and how well he had fared in the one on one battles. His quirk fascinated you, the gorgeous abyssal creature that resided within him, dark shadow, was so complex in nature. All you wanted was to sit and listen to Tokoyami tell you all the details of his companion and how his quirk worked.
But alas, you could never work up the courage to talk to him, and there's no way he would have noticed you during the sports festival, your healing quirk being useless against the robotic enemies and placing you as one of the last to finish and immediately eliminated.Â
The last thing you expected was to run into him at a concert, dressed for the occasion in a singlet with frayed sleeves, patch pants and a spiked choker with matching wrist cuffs to complete the look. You had waited out front of the venue for hours to get a close spot on the floor, one of your top ten bands finally visiting your state, the lead up to the concert was agonising, time passing as slower than ever. You had your outfit mapped out the second you had bought the tickets, anxiously awaiting your chance to see them play live at last. Your eyeliner had taken you over an hour, your trembling hands having made getting a smooth shape nearly impossible.
It took you a moment to get your jaw off the floor, realising that he probably wouldnât remember you from your one interaction and would think you were just some creepy loner who only came to gawk at all the attractive concert attendees. All the blood drained from your face when he made eye contact with you, immediately rushing straight back to your cheeks, you silently prayed that your makeup would hide your blush, but the slight twitch at the edges of his beak tells you otherwise. You quickly avert your eyes to the ground, avoiding that piercing stare and instead becoming suddenly very interested in the tips of your shoes. Your soul leaves your body when you feel a hand rest on your shoulder, whipping your head up to see Tokoyami. Just centimetres away from you. Touching you.  Â
You could faint.
His hand slides off your shoulder, having successfully gained your attention.
âHelloâ
â...Hiâ
You shakily respond.
Before either of you can say anything else, the lights dimmed, indicating the opener was beginning their set. You both eagerly turn, you forgetting any self-consciousness at the exciting prospect of hearing music you love around people that also love it. The movement of the crowd shoves you into his side, and him into yours. Both choosing to just accept the circumstance, as it is part of concert culture, and continue screaming your throats raw.Â
By the end of the opener you were loosened up and excitedly babbling at him about how amazing they were and how exciting it all was while he just smiled and the great contrast from the half an hour ago. His staring brought you back to earth, stammering out the end of your sentence about how cool the band outfits were, conscious of the fact that you were talking to the guy you have had a raging crush on for the past two years and never spoken to.
â[Reader]? Right?â
âUhh yeah.. Yeah! That's me!â
You tried, and failed, to respond normally. How did he know your name? Why does he know it? Did he hear the rumours about you? Does he already have a tainted view of you? Was any chance you may have had with him already gone? What if he told everyone at school that you were some weirdo that stared at him and couldn't talk to him norma-
âIâm Tokoyami Fumikage.â
âI knowâŚI mean, like I remember you from the sports festivalsâŚand..all that.â
Shit. You were blowing this majorly. He was so cool and you were acting so lame. A ridiculous stuttering mess.
âI see, thatâs good then.â
âUm, yeahâŚhow are you liking-â
Your attempt at communicating was interrupted by the main band finally beginning to play. Your attention instantly shifts away from Tokoyami and onto the large elevated stage, missing the way his eyes linger on you, soft smile on his beak. You push onto your tiptoes to peer around the mass of heads and phones obscuring your view.
After the lengthy experience of leaving the venue, you and Tokoyami file in with the crowds to the train station, ambling along and engaging in quiet and short, but sweet and reminiscent conversation that you know youâll wish you savoured more after the night ends.Â
As you try not to fall asleep in your seat, your head lulls from side to side with the sway of the train. It was a miracle you had snagged a seat at all and you didnât want to risk missing your stop. In your delirious sleepy state you barely register the large hand that guides your head to the side, urging it to rest on his shoulder.Â
âIâll wake you at your stopâ
That's all it takes for you to turn your body towards him and push your forehead into the crook of his neck.
As promised, he shakes you awake as the train pulls away from the stop before yours, allowing you the chance to wake up enough to walk without stumbling.
As the doors open, you reluctantly stand from your cosy spot. Making a split second decision, you bend over and place a chaste kiss against the side of his beak, spinning on your heels and speeding out of the train just in time before the doors shut. You were definitely never forgetting tonight.Â
And maybe, just maybe, if you hadnât been so nervous around him at school, you would have seen the way he looked at you.
