Hi there! Can I request Taka, Makoto, Toko, Syo and Kyoko hcs (sorry if they're a lot—) crushing and maybe confessing hcs?
Taka, Makoto, Toko, Syo and Kyoko crushing + confessing HCS
Done! I really enjoyed this since I'm playing THH again and istg I love all the characters so much— I hope you like it, thanks for your request!
The reader is g/n.
—Mod Korekiyo.
—Taka is very blunt with everything he says and does, and the only reason why he didn't confess his feelings is because he didn't realize that he had them in the first place.
—Everyone else around him knows it, though. It's pretty obvious that he has a thing for you.
—He tries his best to spend more time with you. He mostly asks you if you need help with your studies or work, and you can't imagine how happy you make him when you accept.
—He usually takes the lead and makes everyone follow the rules no matter what, it's his nature as the Ultimate Moral Compass. But when it's you? You're his weakness. You're probably able to get away skipping some rules most of the time.
—"Y-y/n, please! You know we're not allowed to...!"
—"...All right. But only this time!"
—Taka is all confidence until you hold his hand and make him blush.
—"Y-y/n! I believe this is n-not the right time!"
—He lets you hold his hand anyways.
—Mondo was getting tired of seeing you two acting like that around each other, so he decided to lend a hand to his friend.
—Actually, the only thing he did was telling him face to face to confess already.
—Confused, Taka had to ask him what he meant, and Mondo told him what was already obvious. When Taka finally began to understand what he was feeling, a burst of confidence and determination invaded him. He thanked his friend and went directly to talk to you.
—"Y/n, listen up! I have a confession to make!"
—You had never seen him so secure about himself and so excited at the same time before.
—"I'll be clear. I realized that I have feelings for you. In other words... I like... no, I love you! Will you please go out with me?"
—He was stunned when you said yes. Sure, confessing how he felt was something, but after that? It was the first time Taka had no idea of what to do.
—"You... do?"
—Mondo had recorded that moment.
—Makoto knows perfectly what he's feeling for you.
—That doesn't mean he isn't clumsy when you're with him, though. He isn't a shy guy, but still, he doesn't know how to hide his feelings at all.
—He blushes very often, mostly when you compliment him.
—Makoto would spend a lot of time with you, doing whatever you wanted or talking about some random stuff. He can be the one who makes the talk if you are a quiet person or listen to everything you say if you're a more talkative one.
—Are you talking about your interests? He pays attention, smiling, glad to be able to see you so happy and excited.
—He'd probably be the kind of guy who walks you home.
—And the kind of guy who takes your hand and gets flustered when you let him do it.
—Also, he doesn't daydream often, but sometimes he'll find himself zooming out during class thinking about you.
—One time he wrote your name on one of his notebooks without realizing it. There was a heart next to your name, too.
—Kind of embarrassing when he realized what he had done.
—One day, he asked you if you could lend him one of your notebooks with the excuse that he had been sick and he hadn't studied enough for the next test. You gladly gave it to him, offering some help as well. However, Makoto refused.
—A few days later, you found it back on your table, just as he promised. You put it in your backpack again and continued with the lessons you had.
—You didn't expect what you saw when you decided to check it back home. There, writen on the first page, Makoto had left a message for you.
—"I don't know how to put this in words, I can't even say this to your face, but... I like you. A lot. More than as a friend. So will you please... be with me?"
—It was so simple, yet it made you blush like never before. You didn't hesitate at all when the next day you saw him again.
—Somehow manages to stutter even more when she talks to you.
—She's the definition of a walking mess. Pure blushing and clumsiness.
—Toko will barely say any nice words to you, honestly. Insulting other people simply comes naturally to her, even if she does like one of those people (aka you).
—The only difference is that she apologizes to you if something slips from her mouth, something no one else could expect coming from her.
—You'd have to be the one spending time with her, because she will never be confident enough to ask you such things.
—She's that kind of person who thinks about you basically the whole day and even night. Sometimes she likes to imagine how you two would look together, and other times it's only you and all the things she likes about you (everything).
—Had probably writen one of two characters from some of her stories based on you. She couldn't help it.
—She also wrote some love letters and confessions that she's got hidden so no one knows about them.
—One day, you two were hanging out in her room, doing nothing in particular other than talk. Toko was trying her best, at least.
—Until you saw something writen on her desk. That wasn't strange by itself, she was a writer after all. But when you decided to take a closer look, your heart started to beat faster.
—It seemed like a love confession, but there weren't any names on it. You thought it was for one of her books, so you asked her about it.
—"Y-you idiot! Who g-gave you permission t-to read that?"
—You apologized, until one thought crossed your mind: was that a real love confession?
—Was it for Byakuya? That would certainly make sense, but it hurted at the same time. Unable to hold back, you mentioned him to see if you were right.
—"B-Byakuya?! O-of course not! It was meant t-to be for someone b-better than him..."
—"W-wait, no! Forget I ever said t-that!"
—She was truly a flustered chaos at that moment.
—You asked one last time, unable to believe she liked someone else other than the Ultimate Affluent Progeny.
—"S-shut up already! H-how can y-you be so dumb, yet so p-perfect? C-can't you see that I like you?"
—Those had been some intense minutes.
—Toko immediately interrupted herself, saying that she already knew your answer. You'd never like a girl like her, according to her.
—You didn't need any words to let her know that your feelings were the same. A kiss was enough to make her see that maybe she wasn't right, after all. Maybe you liked her too.
—She lets you know that she likes you the very moment she sees you for the first time.
—It started with something superficial: Syo making comments from time to time and calling you a 'hottie' like the most casual thing ever. Knowing how flirty she was with however catched her attention, you didn't take it seriously (and thanked her for letting you live).
—She then began to feel weird after a while of knowing you. Sure, she was already an obsessive serial killer obsessive girl when it came to romantic stuff, but she could swear she had never had such an interest in someone, to the point where she didn't want to coughcoughmurderyoucoughcough.
—You were the first one worth keeping alive.
—Syo is really possessive when you're around people. She makes sure to be with you 24/7 and keep an eye if someone ever tried to flirt with you or get too close.
—Even if no one does that, she stills steps in and says something to warn them. Sometimes she mocks them, other times she remarks how good you look... with her.
—Doesn't hesitate to show her scissors if someone gives you both a bad look.
—Anyone could tell she adores you by how she talks about you.
—There was a point were you couldn't assume it was a part of her wild personality anymore. The next time you were with Toko and she sneezed, you decided to let things clear.
—Syo was glad because you were the first thing she saw, but you interrupted her before she could make another one of her comments and asked her clearly what she was expecting to get from... all of that. To be more specific, if she was just messing around or not.
—Syo liked how determinated you were but not the question itself.
—"Ain't it clear already, dumbass? I wanna keep you alive, don't compare yourself with those motherfuckers I murdered."
—Fair enough, but you knew that and that wasn't what you had asked.
—"Okay, okay, I'll say it! I wouldn't mind if someone as hot as you was mine." Not quite the right words, but only thinking about it made her smile.
—"I'm not gonna stop whether you accept or not anyways–"
—A sigh escaped from your mouth. Your relationship with her was going to be questionable at best.
—So good at hiding her emotions that she didn't even know she had feelings for you at first.
—She always acts cold, distant and reserved around others, but you're probably the only exception. Whenever Kyoko is with you, she allows herself to be a little more open. But only when you guys are alone.
—She's very protective and even if you don't see it, she gets easily worried when something happens to you. Did you fall in front of her? She's on her knees next to you asking you if you're okay and lending a hand to help you. Is someone making you feel uncomfortable? She quickly realizes it and gets between you and however is annoying you to warn them to back off if they don't want to get in trouble. Feeling sad? She quietly approaches to you and if you're okay with it, she holds you, hoping it is enough to calm you down. Kyoko's not that good with words so she stays silent and doesn't talk unless you say something.
—You're the only one with the guts to tease her. And also the only one allowed to do it. She doesn't tease you back, though. Instead, she sighs, doing from little to nothing to stop you.
—Pretty good at keeping herself together even if she is flustered. The most remarkable thing you could ever see on her face is a slight blush if you take her hand, and it doesn't always happen.
—You're probably the only reason why she takes breaks and doesn't overwork herself.
—When she finally decides to confess her feelings, she doesn't exactly do it face to face. She knows she'd get way too flustered to hide it, so she gives you a letter she wrote and a small flower that reminded her of you and tells you not to read it until you're home.
—The moment you see her again and tell her that you do want to be with her, she smiles as she never did before, somewhat surprised. Kyoko gives you a quick kiss before thanking you, leaving you both blushed.
could you do genocide jack, miu, and angie with a very easily flustered s/o,,,
When I was reading it for the first time my brain said "look there is only Syo" but it clearly is fucking wrong cuz Miu and Angie are also requested.
Genocide Jack, Miu and Angie with easily flustered S/O
Genocide Jack
Being super affectionate is just her thing so be prepared for when you start dating personal space will be almost non existent (but that's only a joke! When you'd be clearly uncomfortable she'd stay back a little).
She loves it when you're flustered. That's just too adorable??? Is that even allowed to be this cute???
She'd make it her goal to always act in a way that will make you feel like this.
Whenever you try to hide your face from embarrassment she'd laugh but in a way that was oddly comforting.
Miu Iruma
You better watch out... For Miu finds it hilarious that you get so flustered over nothing.
So she is always close and almost always takes advantage of any situation just to see your reactions.
It's kind of exciting in a way- pushing the right buttons to make you feel something but not let that something be huge discomfort.
But of course you turning the tables is not impossible. She will say that she hates when you do it but let's be real that girl is LYING.
Angie Yonaga
She often does and says questionable things with no shame or any second guesses.
So it's not rare for her to say something that will make you confused on how you should react.
She will then exclaim loudly how you don't need to feel embarrassed... Which isn't helping.
But it's not like he's not enjoying it to the fullest. If anything it just makes her wanna tease you more.
Your hands go up to cheer alongside the rest of the cast and crew as the director finally announces the end of filming for their last scene.
These past couple of months have been busy. Even though you weren’t initially a member of the crew, you had been roped into helping out wherever necessary within the first couple of days of shooting. From coffee runs to helping running lines with actors to the side- you were everywhere. Always working as everyone’s little personal assistant. Truthfully, all the work you did for others on set would always leave you feeling tired and worn out at the end of each day. Being pulled every which way from sunrise to sunset can do that to a person. But knowing that you contributed to making something as complicated and amazing as filming a movie made it all feel worth it in the end.
Besides…
“GOOD JOB SYO-CHAN!”
You’re here for someone else!
At your call, Syo turns his head in your direction and searches for you as he’s slowly being lowered down from a large platform. The last scene they had to film was one of his stunts- a parkour combination that had him jumping from broken platform to broken platform. Even though he was supposed to be harnessed, he had shared with you before the filming started that he was pretty nervous about the whole thing. He had never done anything from such a height, and he didn’t want to let anyone down by not being able to do it. You wasted no time in reminding Syo of his potential. He always worked hard- giving everything his 1000% every day. You had no doubt that Syo was physically capable of performing this stunt. He’s fast, tough, and athletic. But sometimes, he just needs someone to show him that he’s stronger than he looks.
And you’ll gladly be that person for him. Every. Single. Time.
When he finally spots you, a wide grin spreads across his face. You can’t help but smile back and send him an exciting wave from your spot on the other side of the set. He shoots you a thumbs-up as he finally lands on the ground before he’s covered in by crewmates, helping him out of his harness and congratulating him on a job well done.
Once he’s out of your sight, you give out a big sigh, visibly deflated. The tiredness from these past months was catching up to you now that the filming is officially over. You always tried your best to stay strong for Syo and be supportive, but now, all you could think about was meeting up with him, going back to the dorms, and taking the longest nap of your life. Unfortunately, Syo’s role as one of the lead actors meant that everyone wanted to speak to him. You couldn’t blame them too- this had to be one of, if not his best movies of all time. You could already tell just how good it was going to be because of the filming. But a job well done called for lots and lots of deserved praise. Not you minded, of course. You were just a little upset, considering that nap of yours was going to have to wait until Syo was done speaking to everyone.
Or at least, that’s what you thought until you saw him force his way out of the growing number of people crowding him.
You couldn’t help but laugh a little, feeling special as you watched him dash across the set towards you. You took off running yourself, hoping to make things easier on him and meet him halfway.
It only takes a couple of seconds of running, but when you two finally met, he could barely stop himself from barreling into you. You sent into another laughing fit- mixed in with a pitiful attempt to catch your breath- as he steadies himself. He sends you a playful glare, but your eyes settle on his costume instead. It was a cool costume, in your opinion. Just a simple Robin Hood inspired rogue outfit with a cape that always fluttered whenever it caught enough wind. Although he didn’t have one of his signature hats on, you thought the costume really suited him. But seeing it up close was just a constant reminder of how handsome he is. Not that you’d ever tell him, of course. You wouldn’t be able to hear the end of it if you did.
“So,” He began, breaking you out of your thoughts as a confident gleam took its place in his eyes and stretched across his face. “What’d you think of the last scene?”
“I loved it! You were perfect!” You jumped up, feeling giddy as you remembered the rush of emotion you felt watching him perform all his cool tricks. “I knew you could do it! I always did…”
You trailed, a shy smile making its way on your face as Syo’s eyes widened at your praise. A light blush appeared on his cheeks as he scratched the back of his head, trying to find the right words to say. He stammered out a response you couldn’t quite understand, dropping the cool, rebellious persona he took on for the movie and turning back into the loveable, passionate Syo you know and love. Still, you couldn’t help but laugh at him again- this time hearing a grumble from the blonde male.
“Yeah, yeah. Keep laughing, and I’ll give you something to laugh about-”
“Mr. Kurusu?” The voice of one of the Prop Managers is his saving grace as she pulls you out of your laughing fit and directs the both of you to pay attention to her. “Everything is set up- just like you asked.”
Instantly a confused look tugs at your face as you raised an eyebrow at him, wondering what he had requested. He pays your silent question no mind and turns to the Prop Manager with a nod.
“Perfect.” He grins.
And before you know it, he’s snatching up your and begins to run. You’re left tugged behind him as he pulls you past curious eyes and calls of his name from other crew members that were still milling around. You pelt questions of your own at him, but they’re lost in the wind as he pulls you through turn after turn. He doesn’t slow down too- and you’re forced to keep up with him and all his pent-up energy as you follow behind him. Squeezing through people, through props, and all types of things that were left out.
It wasn’t until the two of you had reached the trailers set up for all the actors to spend their time getting ready did he finally slow down. His hand was still holding yours tightly within his grip, making you feel a little self-conscience and out of breath as he led you to his own trailer.
Pushing open the door, you follow in behind him, expecting to see the same interior that you’ve always seen whenever he would take you there. Just a regular trailer filled with clothes thrown about and different hats left everywhere from when he was in a rush to get ready.
But you were met with something far better than you would have ever expected.
“Wow…” You murmur, mouth hanging open in awe as you step inside to see the usually messy space cleaned up and covered in flowers. There must have been thousands of them- laying all across countertops and tables and chairs. They lined the walkway and covered every surface imaginable, filling the room with beautiful, vibrant colors that took your breath away. Light and dark purples among seas of lovely reds and dainty whites. Shades of orange- both blood and pale tucked between innocent little yellows and demanding deep reds. Maroon and peach and salmon and even a few white with tiny purple stripes were speckled upon their different colored friends, hiding themselves in such a beautiful sight.
“It might have been a little overboard, but I wanted to do something special for you.”
You turn to Syo and catch the tail end of a sheepish grin, as he moves to hold both of your hands in his own. He takes a deep breath, eyes growing serious, and you’re suddenly hyper-aware of just how close he is to you. The lack of distance is enough to send you feeling flustered and ready to run, but a squeeze of his hands reminds you of his strength- he’s not letting you go anywhere. Not until he says what he has to say.
“I wanted to show you how thankful I am. For you- for everything.” He starts, his voice quiet and heavy as he stares into you. “You were always there for me. Whenever I was in trouble...whenever I was lost...you were always there to show me the way. You gave me the strength I needed to keep going. You are my strength to keep going.”
“Ah,” You turn your head away in embarrassment, not able to think under his intense gaze as he speaks to you so sincerely, “It was nothing, really-”
With practiced swiftness and precision, the idol drops one of his hands from your own and grabs your chin. Your words are instantly silenced as black painted nails gently guide you back to face him.
“It was never nothing.” He affirms, eyes alight with that same fire you’d see on stage. “It was never nothing to me.”
“Syo-chan…” You utter his name, but all that you want to say escapes your mind before they can pass through your lips. His hand, his gaze, his presence leaves you captured. The two of you are caught up in a tense silence- nothing but the rising and falling of chests disturb the stillness of the room. Nothing but the soft beating of two hearts to disrupt the peace.
“The flowers are Gladioluses. They’re named after the Latin word for sword- gladius...pretty cool, yeah?” After a while, the blonde finally breaks the silence. He turns his head towards the flowers, only shifting his eyes to you as he searches for an answer to his question.
“Pretty cool,” You say quietly, tears pricking at your eyes. You’re not sure why you feel like you’re about to cry, but you can’t seem to find it in you to care. “Really, really cool.”
He grins.
“The flowers represent faithfulness and sincerity and…” He swallows, turning towards you once again.
You nod along to his words absently, trying your best to keep yourself together. But it’s hard, you realize. It’s so hard when he looks at you like you’re the most important person in the world. Like you're the only person in the world. It takes every ounce of effort you have in your body to not let the dam break. You never expected him to do something like this for you. You were always just content staying by his side. His shoulder for everything. His support. His barrier. His hug on the bad days and the cheers on the good. Even the hit upside the head whenever the occasion arose. You wanted nothing more, and you wanted nothing less. But now…
“Strength. It means strength.” The word passes through his lips as if it were a breeze. “You are my strength. You've always been.”
With a final cry of his name, you throw your arms around his neck and embrace him. He responds immediately, wrapping his arms around your waist and lifting you in the air. You laugh and shriek at his own little playful show of strength, but it’s lost in your sniffles as you bury your face in his blonde hair. He called you his strength. His reason to keep going. Yet all you could think about was how safe and warm you felt- wrapped up in the arms of your hero. Your strength.
Your Syo.
“So thank you...” He hums into your neck, voice quiet so that no one- not even the flowers can overhear.
My first Utapri post! Syo is my best utapri boy and his new event card is absolutely gorgeous!! Here’s some super fluffy domestic life with Syo! It’s reader insert!
The window was open in your shared apartment, and you were spending a lazy day on the couch, as you dozed off in the sunlight. Your consciousness was fading slowly until the soft sound of a violin came from your bedroom. Syo preferred to practice at the agency, so moments like these were rare. He was playing a particularly slow piece, like a sweet lullaby on the warm summer afternoon. You began to imagine how he looked as he was playing, his face a picture of skilled but serene focus. You wondered how he would look when he performed, the result of hard work and practice. He’d look like a real prince in a beautifully embroidered suit, the fabric crinkling and gliding over his toned muscles as he played. He was probably still in his pyjamas though. It was a free day for both of you, and you spent most of the morning in each other’s arms, waking up naturally as you lay together. Seeing this calm side of him was something you always cherished, from cooking together to going on small dates around town, you weren’t prepared for how sappy he would be with you. Even though you knew he was in the next room over, all of these thoughts made you miss his presence. Waking up your body, you padded over into your bedroom. When you entered, the music stopped.
“Hm? Was I disturbing you?” Syo put his violin down and stroked your cheek as you approached him. The callouses on his hands only reminded you of the work he put in, to be the best man he could be. But now he needed some rest.
“Not really. But are you sure you want to spend your day off like this?” You looked at him with puppy dog eyes.
“Hm. I can’t say no to you, can I? What do you want to do?”
“Umm…” You considered making food together, but right now the bed was looking pretty good. “Let’s just chill together, you’re always so busy we don’t get days like this often. Is that okay?”
Syo hummed in agreement and packed away the violin. “You’re right. I can practice anytime, but today… you’re a little more important.” He cleared the bed for prime cuddling time. “U-um... can we order food in? I’m more tired than I thought I was…”
“Of course, Syo…” You leaned in and gently held him. He sighed as you ran your hands up and down his arms, feeling the muscles relax under your touch. “Let yourself rest once in a while.” You giggle to yourself as you thought of your next line. “It’s manly to take care of yourself, dear.”
“Alright alright!” Syo pushed you away with pink cheeks. “Just wait there and I’ll order.”
You sat down on the bed as he stepped away. But when he got to the doorframe he turned around and leaned over to you. “Don’t miss me too much, ehehe.” He kissed the tip of your nose and tried to walk away, but was stopped by you grabbing onto him and toppling the both of you back on the bed. The pink on his cheeks turned to red at your bold gesture.
“I won’t, but I’ll be right here, waiting.” He got back up slowly, eyes on you as he left the room. Just as he was about to be out of earshot, you said to yourself, “And I always will be.”
You thought he didn’t hear you, but you didn’t see him covering his face as he found his phone in the room over. He wouldn’t get used to how sweet you were to him, but he was looking forward to every word.
Hi⭐ I like your writting!! Could you please write a Syo x reader? Reader likes Syo but is confused about their feelings while Syo is trying to make small moves so to not spook them x) I'd prefer female reader but I don't mind gender neutral (so anyone can enjoy!) Thank you💖💖
Hello! Thank you so much for your compliment^^ So much Syo love on this blog so far; he’s the sweetest and deserves ALL of it! 💖 Here we go!
Syo x Reader - Confused Feelings and Small Moves
-Do you like him or not? You’ve never really had romantic feelings towards anyone before. Is your rapid heart beat when near him because of romantic feelings? Or simply because he is physically attractive. And you were a huge fan of him as an idol before you two became friends. It’s hard to differentiate between starstruck and love, and you want to make sure your feelings are genuine first.
-This confusion is not helped by the fact that your center of attention is a famous idol and actor with thousands of adoring fans!
-Syo, in the meantime, has a “head over heels“ type of crush on you. And for once in his life, he can swallow his pride and admit this to himself.
-Syo isn’t actually sure what to do. He’s never really thought about how to approach his own romantic feelings. Therefore, he enlists the help of the one person he can think of that might know what to do. The one and only Ren Jinguji.
-Big mistake. Ren insists that Syo should be open and intense with his romantic feelings. Shower you in passion, and make you understand. Syo pales; that’s definitely not what you want... Syo decides doing the exact opposite of whatever Ren suggests is the best route to take.
-Instead of big, showy romantic moves, Syo decides to take a slower approach as to not spook you away from your feelings.
-Things like good morning texts, inviting you to catch up at a cafe, offering to paint your nails when you comment on his, and nonchalantly mentioning that he saved you a ticket for his next concert.
-The members of Starish find this interesting. Syo is putting a TON of thought into these tiny actions; spending half an hour crafting a good morning text, rehearsing with Natsuki how to give you the concert tickets.
-Through these small actions your feelings become more and more clear. You really get excited seeing a message from him and love to spend time with him and support his passion.

Omg I wrote a lot more than I thought haha! I hope you enjoyed <3
Hi! If it's alright for you, may I request a scenario where Kurusu Syo ask out a tall (at least compare to him) and shy girl? Or just a relatively tall girl. Have a good week/week-end 🐌 (Sorry if it got sent twice, I had an error message when I tried for the first time so it shouldn't be the case but just in case I'm sorry)
Hi Snail anon! Such a cute idea! Syo is an adorable little guy. Well, I call him little, but during some research I did for this scenario, I actually found out he was just a little taller than me, oops 😂 I hope you enjoy!
Word count: 1153
Warnings: None
Grabbing your sports bag, you got on your bike and headed out. You had been going to the gym regularly, and you weren’t about to give up. After all, you had a great motivation to go aside from your original goal now. Shortly after you started going to the gym, you got talking to one of the other regulars. He was a short guy, but he had more spirit in his tiny body than 10 people put together. The first contact you guys had was when you asked him how to work with a certain machine. Once you admitted you were new to the whole gym thing, he offered to stick with you the rest of your workout to give you pointers and help where needed.
You were pretty awkward at first. The help was very much welcome as you didn’t know much about the machines, but you weren’t the easiest person when it came to meeting new people. You were awkward, you stuttered, and you avoided eye contact at all cost. Syo didn’t seem to mind your behaviour at all. He continued to talk to you calmly but cheerfully, often asking if you were comfortable with doing this or that, and announcing when he would come closer than the acceptable social distance for strangers to adjust the machine.
After that session, he always greeted you when he saw you in the gym, and offered to help you out where needed. At first you tried to keep any and all interaction with him as short as possible, but you slowly found yourself get a little more comfortable around him. He wasn’t pushy, nor invading your personal space, and once you got the confidence to look at his face, he was pretty damn cute. Not that that made interacting with him any easier.
It didn’t take long for you to develop a crush on Syo and you found yourself looking forward to seeing him in the gym more and more. You never dared ask him for his number to arrange meetups at the gym though. He was just being friendly, right? Obviously he wanted to have some alone time at the gym as well. It’s not like you were actual friends. There was no way he was interested in you in the way you were interested in him. After all, didn’t men want women who were shorter than them? You were taller than Syo, so you weren’t even an option.
But still, that did not stop you from looking forward to seeing him. You were always disappointed when you didn’t see him, but then you reminded yourself of your original reason for going to the gym and still gave it your all. Once you arrived at the gym, you locked up your bike and went inside, straight to the dressing rooms to get changed. There were some other people in the dressing room, so you got ready in a corner of the room, hoping they wouldn’t bother you. Luckily, they were too busy talking amongst themselves to even notice you.
You left the dressing room and headed towards the machines. It was your lucky day! Syo was there, and he spotted you the moment you came in. His concentrated face changed to a big smile.
“Hey, Y/N! Good to see you again.”
“N-nice to see you again too, Syo…”
“Ready for another workout today?”
“Yeah.”
You cursed yourself for still stuttering around Syo, but smiled back at him anyway. Syo started talking about little things from his day again and you listened to him, sometimes adding something, but mostly you just stayed silent. It always impressed you how in shape he was, being able to talk so much while exercising. Whenever you tried to talk while working out, it came out in pants and wheezes.
Time flew, and your workout was over before you knew it. You were slightly disappointed that it was over already, but your body told you that it was enough. Syo seemed to have the same idea, and wiped his sweat off with a towel.
“I think that’s enough for today, Y/N. See you again next time?”
“Yeah!”
Syo grinned and waved at you, before running off to the men’s dressing rooms. You watched the door fall shut behind him, and walked towards the women’s dressing rooms. After taking a quick shower, you got dressed in your normal clothes again, packed your bag and left the gym. As you reached your bike, you noticed someone standing by the bikes. It was Syo.
“Syo? Don’t you usually jog to the gym?”
“I do! Actually, I was waiting for you!”
“Waiting for me? Did I accidently take your towel or something?” you were about to start rummaging through tour bag until you heard Syo laugh.
“No, it’s nothing like that!” His smile seemed to falter a little, before he spoke again. You could swear he was blushing a little.
“Then what it is? Is something up?”
“Well… I was wondering… doyouwanttogoonadatewithme?” He nearly yelled the last part, but it was so fast that you couldn’t hear it. The loudness startled you a bit.
“Sorry… could you repeat that but… a bit slower?” you asked nervously.
“Ah sorry…” Syo cleared his throat and took a deep breath. “Do you want to go on a date with me?”
You blinked, blinked again, and your eyes went wide. Did he just really ask you out? Or were you making this up because you wanted to hear this? Your whole face was heating up, and you had no idea how to react.
“Sorry if this is kinda sudden, and you can say no if you don’t want to! I just… you know… you’re such a person and you look so beautiful, I had to at least ask.”
“Syo, I… for real? I mean, I’m not as sociable as you, and I’m taller than you…”
“I wouldn’t joke about stuff like this! Who cares if you’re not as sociable as me, or that you’re taller. That doesn’t change that I think you’re an amazing and beautiful person.” the determination in his eyes told you he wasn’t lying. The heartfelt words nearly made you tear up.
“I… thank you. I’d love to go on a date with you.”
Syo stared at your smiling face for a little bit, before jumping in victory. The sight was rather cute.
“How about we meet here on Saturday around 11.45? We can grab some lunch together and see if we still want to do something after that?”
“Sounds good to me.”
“Maybe we should exchange numbers too? In case something comes up?”
“Right.”
Still barely believing what just happened, you and Syo exchanged phone numbers. After checking the messages arrived properly, you wished him a good evening, hopped on your bike and started driving home. Unbeknownst to you, Syo was watching you until you were out of sight, wearing the biggest grin.
You and Syo have spent weeks discussing what the ultimate costumes would be for the two of you, with him of course being something manly and cool. On the evening itself he picks you up from your house full of excitement, hyped to get to the festivities with you. Despite having planned the outfits together, Syo is stunned by you in your costume, as you looked absolutely breathtakingly beautiful.
Syo's energy levels are generally high, but tonight they are through the roof. Every cool spooky item or costume he points out to you, gushing with enthusiasm. He can't wait to go to the haunted mansion together with you, boasting about his manliness and how nothing could scare him. He was going to be your protector, your dapper knight.
Needless to say, is that he does end up being spooked quite a bit several times, and being a vocal person he yelps out several times. He immediately clears his throat, saying he was just playing along of course, since a haunted house wouldn't be fun without being startled together..
His face is a bit red when the two of you emerge clinging to each other, though in his eyes he was just protecting you that way. You know however, that no matter what the situation, this man would protect you with all his power, and stand up for you.
Syo is very excited to buy the two of you all sorts of snacks to share, eager to try all the different things the fair had to offer.
Even if you are a person that tires more easily, the sheer energy this boy exudes can keep you going strong! Once the two of you slowly begin to unwind however, you are filled with satisfaction instead. When the two of you decide to stroll home together, you couldn't be happier. Syo puffs up his chest, gathering his courage, and holds your hand as a blush runs over his face. He grumbles something about how true gentlemen should hold the hands of the one they care about most to be able to protect them, but it's a really sweet gesture.
When the two of you arrive at his home together, he rushes around quickly to get thigs set up for you. If you are not quite ready to go to sleep, the two of you cuddle under the warm blankets and maybe watch a scary Halloween movie. Both of you fall asleep before it finishes, snuggled together cutely under the blankets. <3
