kenma kind of relates to you in a way and itās what has him soft for you off the bat
the way that he becomes immersed in a game to make himself vanish from public presence, he sees you doing the same with your earbuds in, a pen in your hand, and a notebook in front of you
thatās what first attracts you to him anyway
fast forward to you guys dating and shy lil baby is 1. shy and 2. very respectful of your privacy and craft so when he sees you drawing he lets you be
he likes being in your quiet, focused yet gentle presence while you draw and he games or sleeps....it just fits
he canāt help but get quick looks sometimes though, sometimes by accident and sometimes just out of pure awe of how talented you are before he looks away guiltilyĀ
you catch his gaze on one occasion when youāre both sitting at the dining table in your house while he does some homework (more like plays with his pencil and zones out)Ā and he looks away sheepishly and apologizes
when you ask him why he says that he figured if youād wanted to show him you wouldāve by now so he wants to respect your passion
itās such a sweet gesture that you smile and reach over to squeeze his hand
you explain that youād love to share your works with him, itās just that youāve kind of conditioned yourself into notĀ āpushing it in other peopleās facesā so you donāt bother anybody
kenmaās eyebrows come together and in a tone that tells you heās being blunt more than flattering, says,Ā ābut itās just a cool thing to get to see. and iād feel happy if someone trusted me enough to show me what they love to do.ā
again, you smile really big and tell himĀ ā...well i do trust you, kenmaāĀ
you guys move to the couch and he waits eagerly playing with the hem of his shirt while you run to get some sketchbooks you wanna show him
you spend the evening side by side on the couch, kenmaās arm thrown on the cushion above you and your knees bent and leaning on his thigh as you file through pages and loose papers of your work
part of you is nervous that heās bored or putting on an act as he gives small mumbles of praise (āi like this oneāĀ āyouāre really talentedā)Ā
but you notice how heāll sometimes take a specific sketch he really likes into his own hand and looks at it, almost lost in it and not paying attention to your timid explanations behind the different works
he doesnāt tell you this, but heās trying to work up the courage to ask to keep one but he canāt seem to find the one that he wants to ask for
when itās pretty clear to you heās not focusing, your self consciousness takes over and you ask him if heās gotten bored and wants to stop
he hits you with the nonono and admits his thoughts to you
āthese old things?ā you tell him. you have no problem with giving him something, but none of them seem good enough for him to keep despite his assurance to the contrary
you make a deal with him that youāll make him something special thatāll be just for himĀ
