My lovely darling, @kibi-lou asked for a fic and ya’ll know I love me some cute Kibi so I’m gonna write my sweet friend this fic.
Ichimatsu scratched his head slowly, a small yawn leaving his lips as he walked down the street. His eyes lazily glancing around as his ears tuned in to listen out for his feline friends. It was a warm day outside, nothing overly hot. However he could smell the rain in the air, with a glance above his head he could see the clouds rolling in.
With a sigh he rolled his shoulders and braced himself for rain, the house was too far back to jog to safety in time so might as well deal with the rain while it comes. Ichi then paused for a moment, seeing someone quite familiar holding a broken umbrella. He snorted in amusement, seeing Kibi struggling with the damn thing before walking over. However the moment he opened his mouth to speak it started to rain, making Kibi squeak and sign out loud.
“Shit..” He cursed, startling his dear friend who turned in confusion.
Ichiamatsu took Kibi’s hand and gently tugged her to safely out of the rain, his expression blank yet his heart as beating so fast. If one would look closely they could see a slight tinge of pink across his cheeks.
“You should’ve tossed that thing out before leaving your house, Kibi..” He scolded her gently, his eyes never leaving the rain now that they’re hidden in an alleyway between some shops. Though his words held no malice, just slight concern.
If she got sick how would he know? Get into contact with her? How would he take care of her?
He groaned and rubbed at his eyes, his mind a wild mess at the moment. All Ichimatsu could think was about her, how he cared so damn much about her. God damn was love always like this? His heart skipping beat randomly at every little move she made? Every single small sigh that made his cheeks flush?
With slight movement he glanced down at her, taking in just how small she is compared to him. The thought made him smile, thinking just how adorable her height is. So with a fuckton of courage he took her hand once again, focusing his expression to be blank and his eyes to look disinterested.
“Ichimatsu are you oka--”
“Shut up and listen! I-I..Uh..” He cleared his throat, ignoring the confused and slightly annoyed expression that donned her face. Ichi glanced at her and pursed his lips before coughing into his other hand, now starting sweat. The urge to rip his pants off and shit was so real but he ignored it because this was the perfect fucking moment to do this.
“You’re so smart and cute and talented, I just--I just want you to know how special you are to me. I know I’m shit at feelings and whatnot but whenever I’m around you I can’t help but want to pin you to the damn wall and kiss you until you’re begging for air!”
Not how he wanted this confession to go but it’s a start, so Ichimatsu rolled with it. His grip on her hand getting a bit sweaty but she obviously didn’t care based on the expression on her face, the flushed skin and wide eyes. With a deep breath he turned his body to face her, eyes now narrowed with determination. And with a gulp Ichi reached up to cup her cheek, a small smile now quirking on his lips.
It was that simple and yet his heart was beating so quickly. His thumb now stroking her cheek slowly, Ichi leaned in and pecked her lips. A gentle press before pulling away and looking her in the eyes, the urge to pull her close was too much to bare.
“I love you so damn much and I know I’m a piece of shit for taking this long to confess.” He leaned back in and pressed more kisses to her face, his hands sliding down to wrap around her waist. “But I hope you still accept me..”
Ichimatsu gave a shaky smile before burying his face into her hair, now too embarrassed to say anything else. If Karamatsu saw him know, the bastard would probably be crying tears of joy.
“You can’t say no, by the way..I refuse to let you reject me, I know I’m trash and I know I’m disgusting but it took too much god damn effort to do this so you’re just gonna have to accept me for who I am..O-Only if you want to?”
Kibi laughed and hugged him, burying her face into his soft hoodie. Yes she was blushing and her heart was skipping all sorts of unhealthy beats but it’s all because of herlove for this cat-man.
“Of course, you dumb NEET! But uh--can we stay like this until the rain ends?”
Ichimatsu smirked and nuzzled the crown of her head, “Yeah, we can.”
