NAKAHARA CHUUYA X READER FICLET —
a/n : hi kota!!! first off, welcome to tumblr, and thank u sm for requesting!! i rlly like ur prompt and lowk thought it was cute af so hopefully I did it justice and hopefully you enjoy this ^^
It wasn’t new. Chuuya’s always been a good runner, a sly man. But you knew sly men wore a hair of red and a well-worn fedora. You knew sly men had deep blue eyes and even deeper wounds. At least, he did. And you loved those features.
You couldn’t find him—until you saw that red hair, that well-worn hat. You smiled to yourself, and found your feet already moving, already skating towards the man.
A hand landed on his shoulder. Yours. He jolted up like a tabby arching, his fists flying against his chest defensively. Then, a quiet “Oh.”
A tilt of the head. An awkward smile. “Hello,” you said, “scared you, did I?”
Chuuya clicked his tongue. Slowly, he let his hands drop. “Scared? Don’t be fuckin’ stupid, of course not,” he sighed, brows furrowed. “I’m just… I was focused. On the handles.”
“Yeah, the handles. What, you don’t believe me?”
You burst into laughter, took his hand in yours. He didn’t pull back. He just squeezed. “I’m just teasing, Chuu.” Behind his fixed gaze on the floor, behind his hair, you could see his face. To be more specific, his cheeks. To be even more specific, the colour of them.
They were redder than the hair of a sly man.
You lowered your voice. “What’s the problem here?”
A tisk. “Theres no problem here. If there were, I would’ve gotten rid of it.”
For once, you flicked his forehead. He stared at you wide-eyed. “Tell me the truth, Chuuya. C’mon, I won’t judge.” The man groaned. His hands scrambled across his face. He spoke. Barely. The words were scrambled as well.
“I can’t…” a scramble. You tilted your head. “What?”
A louder scramble. “I don’t know how to, to…”
“What, Chuuya? I can’t hear you.”
“I don’t know how to roller skate, damn it!”
“Ohh.” again, you laughed. “That’s okay, I can teach you.” Chuuya shook his head. He kept his feet planted, his fists glued to his side. “I’ll learn by myself.”
“Absolutely.” You nodded. With a flick of your hand, you gestured for him to follow along as you skated off. He breathed out a harsh sigh. Awkwardly, he moved. For a moment, he thought he was doing it, and you did too.
Until he nearly fell, face flat, in front of a bunch of people. He let out a low groan. “Sweetheart,” he called. “Can you help me?”
You shook your head, sighed. You skated towards him and helped him up. “Okay, listen up,” the fedora found itself under your hand as you pat his head. He nodded. “I’m listening.”
“First, bend your knees.”
“Just do it.” He did it. “Lean forward, slightly.” You placed a steady hand on his back. The man blushed, stared at his shoulder. “Now put your feet in a V-shape.”
“Like that,” carefully, you nudged the wheel of his skates with yours. “Are you stable?” He scoffed. “I’m not a baby,” he said, his grip on you tight, “but, yeah. I’m stable.”
“Okay. Great, you’re doing great.” Chuuya bit back a smirk. He chuckled to himself, you could hear it. “Take small steps. I’ll walk with you.”
He frowned and clenched his fists, sweating. A low growl left his throat. “Sure. I can do that,” And so you took his hand in yours, and you both took small steps. Small steps that grew, until they were no longer small. Chuuya huffed. “Wait up, would you?”
“Nah,” a shaked head, “I’m not waiting for any slow-pokes.”
You both laughed. You both hugged each other with your hands, your fingers. “Yeah.”
Then, you looked at him. “Okay, now try to glide. Let yourself roll.”
He hesitated. You frowned. “It’s okay. You won’t fall.”
Chuuya took in a deep breath. He’s experienced worse. He’s learnt harder. He pushed himself off, and finally, let himself roll.
“Babe!” He yelled, brows furrowed, his face slowly morphing into the sun. “Hey, don’t yell at me,” you defended, laughing, “look. You rolled.”
The fedora nearly fell as Chuuya looked down. “Shit, you’re right.” Triumphantly, he flashed you a boyish grin, and threw his hands on his hips. “Ha! What did I tell you, huh?”
“Great job, Chuu,” you rolled over to him, kissed him on the cheek. “Of course I did a great job.”
He paused. “And, uh,” your eyes met, “thank you. For teaching me, I guess.”
Chuuya buzzed. He pinched your cheek. “Don’t act so humble, you high-and-mighty fucker.” He tilted his head to the side, “Cmon, let’s go roller-skate.”
You sighed. You smiled. Stupid. Oh, Chuuya.
You spent the rest of the night skating under dim, colourful lighting.
Your hands were locked the entire time.
