"....I love you more than anyone else... It's actually kind of scary just how much I love you.... Not that I mind, I wouldn't have it any other way~" //HERE YOU GO. NOW SHUT UP. I WILL NOT HAVE KENMA DOUBTING KUROO'S LOVE ANYMORE. GDI.
Just a bunch of KuroKen fluff/angst below the cut– sorry to those on mobile ;w;
〔 Kenma started hearing KᑌᖇO say something so... intimate suddenly. Gσℓ∂en hues widened in shock as he stilled in the other’s arms. He was quiet, letting the captain continue. What had brought this on?
⠀⠀Guilt ate at him, knowing he doubted just what KᑌᖇO had said almost ⠀⠀daily... but who had told him? He hadn’t shared that info with anyone ⠀⠀except for Keiji and Shoyo.. But he wouldn’t be too surprised if Shoyo had ⠀⠀come to tell the bed head himself, or perhaps Keiji told Bokuto-san and ⠀⠀well... that was a give away.
⠀⠀Ignoring the thoughts, he slowly relaxed again, letting silence fall over them ⠀⠀before he shut down his ℙЅℙ, not caring about saving for once.
⠀⠀Turning suddenly, Kenma gripped onto the familiar red jacket, burying his ⠀⠀face against the taller boy’s chest, breathing in the calming scent of herb ⠀⠀spices. It was strange, but he grew up with that scent always there, ⠀⠀always steadying him when he was in distress.
⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀“ I’m sorry... ”
⠀⠀He finally spoke, keeping quiet even though they were the only two in his ⠀⠀room at the moment– well really, the only two in the house.
⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀“ I can’t help it... I know you’d never just walk away... ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ I-i know that yet.. ”
⠀⠀His voice shook slightly and he h̸a̸t̸e̸d̸ that, he h̸a̸t̸e̸d̸ becoming vulnerable ⠀⠀after seeming so emotionless on the outside. But KᑌᖇO always did that to ⠀⠀him, didn’t he? Break down his walls, with just a few simple words.
⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀“ I don’t mean to doubt you KᑌᖇO.. You know I trust you more ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀than anyone. And I know you love me.. You know I... ”
⠀⠀He paused, unable to form the words fully. He h̸a̸t̸e̸d̸ that about himself. He ⠀⠀could ᴱᴬˢᴵᴸᵞ talk about love when speaking for another person, but when he ⠀⠀himself tried to say the simple and overused phrase of ‘I love you’, he just ⠀⠀couldn’t. He never had been able to, even with his parents, not that he ⠀⠀really had many opportunities to try and say it anyways.
⠀⠀Instead, he pulled back slightly, looking at the other while his fingers gently ⠀⠀moved against his jawline, trying to display the words he couldn’t muster. ⠀⠀Even going as far to lean down and gently place his lips against the other’s, ⠀⠀it was a ghost of a kiss, but the meaning was still there.
⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀“ I’m sorry... ” 〕
