Let It Happen (JoJo's bizarre adventure X Reader One-shots)

A date with Josuke

This chapter is dedicated to nana-mania! Happy birthday ghorl! 🎂

- You met in college as you take mutual classes together that he struggled with

- The boy was smitten at your extremely attractive features upon first laying eyes on you, but oh boi does he found himself more at awe when you were effortless at the subject he was particularly not good at.

- Other than that, he really finds your kindness and caring nature very endearing.

- And so he used that as an advantage to start a conversation with you because the boy is 'smooth' like that... If you want to call it smooth.

- He knows nothing about asking someone out, okay?

- He's asked myriads of people for their advices but it's always the same: Be straightforward.

- Asking in a straightforward manner?
Pffttt— what's that? He wants to spare himself from rejection damnit—

- He thought that befriending you would be good at first, when he realized that the intention of befriending someone just to ask them out on a date was a little bit... Slimey to him for some reason.

- Asking someone out in a straightforward manner might be a good thing after all— rejection be damned even it will haunt him for the rest of his life!

- And so, the teen resorted to do just that; Be straightforward.

- He was unsure at first but eh, life was short and he knows his friends aren't going to let him hear the end of it.

- Okay he's nervous and tries to keep cool and suave, stop being so GODDAMN CUTE DAMNIT—

- You were alone organising your research paper on your desk against a wall, silent and clearly not that much occupied since you were simply going through the notes for the ninth time... Not that he was watching, but he just noticed, he swears!

He slicks his hair back as he approached you, but backs away when he realized he might look like a creep backing you up in a corner and making you uncomfortable was the last thing he wanted—

"Uh hey~" He flirted with a swagger of an nervous teen trying his best to appear macho... It was dorky and simply adorable but he finds it extremely awkward and wanted to burrow himself under a rock for the rest of his life.

"Hello," you laughed at his comical attempt to keep a cool head. "Josuke Higashikita, right? From (insert subject) class?"

"Uhhh, yeah! Yeah..." He laughs at nothing in particular to ease his tensed form, lifting his hand behind his head to scratch the back of his neck. "So uh... Umm... There's... Uh, Tonio's Restaurant— if-if you wanna... If you want to— uhm..."

It was adorkable of how the tomato began to take its shape with the form of his face, as you smiled at his endearing dorky side while he was internally preparing his burial after your rejection.

"I-uh—!" Josuke finds himself slowly losing confidence in his self as you remained seated on your chair, confused and yet jolly— maybe jolly at the sight of his miserable form as he couldn't get through his sentence without failing his cognitive function. He only lets out a nervous laugh, his voice cracking within the process and tries to cover it up with a clear of his throat.

- Oh boi it was going bad according to his plan! He was supposed to be all suave and cool and macho to woo you but no—! Your mere presence reduced him into a puddle of embarrassment-!

- Already getting the idea of his intention, you smiled up to him and stood from your seat. He was shock nonetheless when you suddenly placed your hand on his shoulder and firmly squeezed him.
