OH!! wait a second!! โฆ Let me change the song for you!!
a/n: i haven't been feeling too motivated to write lately, which really saddens me :(( but i hope you'll enjoy this one!!
there were many things asakura jo preferred keeping to himself โ the ever-growing collection of rice themed plushies and figurines in his room, the way he only pretended to drink all the alcohol his friends poured him each time they had a night out. all innocent secrets, truly, meant to preserve his peace and prevent unnecessary teasing. and yet amongst those small, seemingly insignificant secrets hid one far bigger and much more serious: a relationship.
it wasn't even that he wanted to hide it from his friends, not at all; he wouldn't have minded them knowing about the feelings blooming between him and you, about the connection which has far transcended that of friendship. he would've survived the teasing and the knowing glares, the never-ending stream of little comments from yuma and maki. but jo found out that breaking the news wasn't exactly an easy task โ especially in a big friend group, where each hang out consisted of one person talking over the other. and with him and his soft spoken, calm nature, it was only natural his voice would sometimes disappear in the chatter. and as time passed and his friends continued to be unaware of his relationship status, he decided it would be awkward to tell them so late.
so he kept it to himself โ a sweet, little secret meant only for him and you.
but that secrecy had its downsides, too. and one of them just so happened to reappear each time you hung out with everyone else โ where all of the touches, even the smallest ones, were suddenly off limits, and the lack of affection from you slowly drove jo insane. especially today.
the sun has long set, disappearing behind the horizon as the night sky spread its darkness outside the windows of jo's apartment, the living room bustling with chatter and energy as his friends brought up one embarrassing story after another, their laughter erupting with each mentioned situation. his focus was solely on you, though โ sitting on the other side of the couch, in the center of all the chaos, quiet giggles escaping your lips as you listened to the stories.
you looked as beautiful as you always did โ your smile bright and radiant, the sight of it enough for his heart to skip a beat. he wanted nothing more than to plop down right next to you and wrap his arms around your frame.
but he couldn't, and it frustrated him more than he would like to admit. and yet he didn't want to kick his friends out either โ so he opted to sit in silence, the smallest, barely noticeable pout on his face. a pout which you would've recognized anywhere.
asakura jo was sulking.
he noticed you moving in the corner of his eye, head turning towards your frame as he watched you stand up from your seat, heading for the kitchen. but before you disappeared from his line of sight, you turned towards him for a quick second.
'could you help me get snacks from the kitchen?' you asked, trying to contain your laughter at the speed with which jo stood up from his seat. of course he would โ anything to get some alone time with you, even if it'd only last a minute or two.
his arms were wrapped around you the moment you stepped into the kitchen โ his taller frame towering over you as he leaned in, hiding his face in the crook of your neck.
'you're cute when you're pouty like this, you know?' you giggled quietly, words merely above a whisper. jo murmured something into your shoulder, barely audible. 'hm?'
'can't they just leave alreadyโฆ' he repeated, lifting his head to face you. you couldn't help but smile at him โ hand reaching for his and squeezing it in a reassuring motion.
'they'll leave soon, trust me.' you whispered, planting a soft kiss on his lips. 'yuma looks like he'd fall asleep in the next twenty minutes and i heard yudai mention something about driving him home before he passes out.'
'and you?' jo asked.
'what about me?'
'will youโฆ' he said, stopping in the middle of his sentence as if he hesitated for just a second. 'stay the night? only if you want to, of course. it's just we didn't get to spend much time together this week and i-'
'of course. i'd love to.' you cut him off before he was able to finish, the unsure expression on his face replaced by a gentle smile, a sigh of relief leaving his lips.
his lips captured yours in another sweet kiss before eventually pulling away, the boy reaching to open one of the cabinets, pulling out two bags of crisps from inside. once you arrived back in the living room, it seemed like jo's prayers have been answered โ smile still plastered to his face as he noticed his friends getting ready to leave one by one, some of them already by the door waving their goodbyes.
only yudai remained in the living room โ helping organize some of the mess left at the table, humming something under his breath.
'i'll drive yuma home.' he stated, catching the sight of you and jo entering the room in the corner of his eye. the space felt calmer than before, less suffocating thanks to all the people who have already left the apartment or waited in front of it. 'want a ride too? it's on my way home, so i'll be driving there anyways.'
his brows furrowed in curiosity as you shook your head, politely declining his offer.
'i'll stay a little longer and help jo clean up.' you explained, feeling yudai's suspicious stare burning holes into you. 'you guys left quite the pile of dishes in the sink, you know.'
'do you need any more people to help with-'
'no.' jo cut him off, his answer a little too abrupt, tone a little too sharp. yudai looked at him with initial surprise in his eyes โ only for a knowing smile to emerge on his face as he looked between the two of you.
'alright, lovebirds. i'll leave you to it then.'
jo felt like digging a hole under himself and disappearing from this world entirely the moment yudai left his apartment, face heating up in embarrassment. you couldn't help the giggle leaving your lips at the sight of him, finding his current state adorable.
'he knows.' jo mumbled, looking like he'd just saw a ghost. 'do you think he'll tell everyone else?'
'i'm not sure.' you stated, thinking hard about your answer. 'but i don't think so. he more so seems the type to have fun watching you pretend there's nothing between us at every following hangout rather than blabbering to everyone. it's yudai, after all.'
jo knew you were right โ and yet that thought didn't put him at ease whatsoever.
'we could just tell them, you know.' you murmured, hand finding his. 'you wouldn't have to sit and sulk like you did today.'
'i wasn't sulking.' he argued, turning to face you. you giggled.
'you so were. and you looked adorable while at it.'
jo couldn't help the heat traveling straight to his cheeks, his face turning a pretty shade of pink as he hid his face in the crook of your neck once more, trying to hide his embarrassment.
'we can tell them next time we hangout.' he mumbled after a little while, long arms pulling you closer to him. 'can we justโฆ cuddle for now? i missed having you to myself.'
you smiled at his words, a small chuckle leaving your lips.
notes: so basically this was the dream that i saw yesterday and i wanted to write it out. this is actually the only thing that i like about being tired cause whenever im tired i see comforting dreams and i just love it. (but then i end up craving cuddles fr) and anywaysโฆ AMPERS&ONE FIC DEBUT YOOOO yay
The heavy evening rain splattered loudly against your window, the relentless patter pulling you from a deep, comfortable sleep. With an annoyed tsk, you shifted beneath the blankets, ready to stretch away the lingering drowsiness.
But before you could move, you felt a muscular arm draped around your waist and your forehead resting against a firm chest. You slowly lifted your head, blinking away the scraps of sleepiness and as your eyes adjusted to the dim light of the lamp behind you, they landed on the sleeping face of your boyfriend.
His plump lips were pushed into a faint pout, and one of his cheeks was squished against the pillow, making him look far softer than he usually did. A few strands of messy hair had fallen on his forehead and the adorable sight made you smile.
Carefully, not wanting to wake him, you lowered your head once more and settled comfortably against his arm. The warmth and the slow rising of his chest surrounded you again, and his arm instinctively tightened around your waist as he buried his face deeper into your hair.
But as if he sensed your movements earlier, he let out a soft whine. "Y/n...?" he mumbled, voice deep with hours of sleep.
A fond smile immediately spread across your face.
"Hm...?" You answered softly.
His nose scrunched slightly against the pillow.
"...Hi" The sleepy greeting was so random and adorable that a quiet laugh slipped from your lips. "Hi, bunny."
You nuzzled closer against his chest, your cheek sinking into the soft fabric of his shirt. "Wake uppp" You whined playfully. A low groan rumbled from his chest.
"Noooo..."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes."
You tilted your head back, smiling so hard, to look at him, cheeks growing warm with love, only to meet his half lidded eyes looking down at you, filled with nothing but love.
His hair was a complete mess, Cheek still had pillow marks pressed into it.
"I love you... so much." He shifted closer and presed a lingering kiss against the top of your head and when he pulled away, he rested his chin on top of your head. The rain continued its steady patter against the windows like a lullaby while the bedroom remained wrapped in warmth and comfort. His arms remained wrapped around you while yours rested against his chest, still tracing different shapes.
"Bunny..." you whispered softly, your voice barely audible over the sound of rain. He hummed, his fingers running through your hair.
"Yes, my angel?"
The nickname made your heart bloom with affection.
"I love you more."
A quiet chuckle escaped him. He pulled back to look at you properly. His hand found your chin, his gentle touch tilting your face upward.
"That can't be true, though. I love you more than anything?" A sleepy smile tugged at the corners of his lips. Then he leaned down, pressing his lips against yours for 5 seconds. When he pulled away, a shy smile appeared on his face and he leaned down again to press a quick peck.
The sight below him made his heart swell with happiness and overwhelming joy.
His entire world was cuddled up to his chest, tucked safely in his arms like the cutest doll. You looking up at him through your lashes with an innocent shy look. A pretty pink shade decorated your cheeks, trying and failing to hide your shyness.
Carefully, he brushed a loose strand of hair away from your face, "You're adorable, you know that?"
You buried your face in his chest with a whine and his laugh echoed through the room.
He laughed at you before wrapping both arms around you. "Good night, adorable."

notes: hi this is my first time writing for nagi (or any anime character) i hope this is okay and yepp hope you'll enjoyy!!!
You turned your head away from the mess of notes and highlighted pages scattered across your study table, your tired eyes landing on your boyfriend across the room. The soft glow of his game lit up his face, fingers moving quietly over the controller exactly the way you asked him to, not to disturb you.
You let out a quiet sigh, fingertips pressing against your temple as the headache behind your eyes worsened. The room felt heavy with exhaustion after hours of studying. Quietly, you pushed your chair back and stood up. Nagi barely noticed you, too focused on the game, and your slow steps carried you toward him until you were standing right behind his chair.
Then, without saying anything, you rested your chin gently on top of his head, arms slipping around his shoulders from behind. The tension in your body melted the second you felt him lean back into you instinctively.
His hands paused mid-game.
"Tired?" he asked softly, voice quiet. You hummed in response, tightening your hold around him slightly.
Nagi tilted his head back just enough to look up at you, his expression immediately softening when he noticed how drained you looked. He reached up with one hand, lazily intertwining his fingers with yours where they rested against his chest.
"You should take a break." he murmured. "Come here, baby."
One hand slid around your waist while the other rested behind your thigh, guiding you gently onto his lap until you were facing him comfortably. Your arms wrapped around his neck, legs resting on either side of his hips as you tucked yourseld closer, burying your face into the warmth of his shoulder. Nagi let out a quiet laugh through his nose, hands slowly rubbing up and down your back in lazy motions.
You breathed him in deeply, the familiar scent of his offering comfort after the exhaustion of many tired days were playing with you.
Your eyes fluttered shut and without thinking, you pressed a soft lingering kiss against the side of his neck. Nagi went still for a half second. and then his arms wrapped around you tighter. His chin rested against the top of your head while he leaned back in his chair with you still clinging to him. One of his hands slipped under your hoodie, fingertips tracing slow circles against your waist soothingly.
He carefully adjusted you on his lap, one arm keeping you secure while the other reached for the controller again. The game sounds filled the room quietly, low enough to not to disturb you. But even while playing, his attention never left you. Every few minutes, he'd glance down at you curled up against his chest, checking if you were okay.
Your cheek was squished against his hoodie, lips slightly parted as you slept against him so trustingly that it made his chest ache. He leaned down carefully and pressed a soft kiss to your forehead and started playing with one hand while the other stayed wrapped around you the entire time.
โ๐ผ
