something beautiful | komahina au

smoked skies

hajime's pov

I sat down onto the fountian, sitting bluntly in the middle of Hopes Peak's courtyard. I saw Komaeda walking over to me. He sighed.

"Hey, Hinata." He said, his voice almost whispy.

I managed out a smile. "Hey, Komaeda. Wanna go somewhere else-?" I said, bluntly.

He shook his head, holding up a lit cigarette in his fingers. "I just wanna relax.. if you don't mind."

Ah- he smokes.. But, I nodded my head. "Yeah, yeah, of course."

I spaced out as I watched the boy's lips touch the auburn part of the cigarette, smoke floating into the air as he took a breath. I couldn't be more amazed at how beautiful he really is- but I couldn't just say that to him. Didn't I just meet him anyway-?

Komaeda glanced at me, softly huffing. "Don't stare at me, please- it's making me nervous..."

I came back to my senses and jolted up. "Ah- yeah, yeah- s-sorry." I said.

I can't get it through my head that I've mostly started crushing on this guy in two days- i'm probably just hazy from the smoke, though.

Me and Komaeda started talking as the sun began setting- mostly about the latest things and students in the school.

"Yeah, Nanami really is pretty- but I mostly like guys, and she's not my type." I said, bluntly on-topic.

"Ah- me too, actually. Well, except for the 'mostly' part. I only like guys- I guess we have something in common?" Komaeda chuckled. I felt my face heat up as he said that. He'd never laugh either.

"Yeah, I guess you're right." I said, laughing. It was pretty awkward.

I wasn't expecting any of this happening, but things happen, I suppose.

I waved back at Komaeda as he left for the dorms, I did the same. My head began clearing up as I got back and flopped myself onto the bed, checking my phone.

N: Night, Hinata.

I felt a small squeal unconsciously come out from my mouth, and managed to reply.

H: Night, Komaeda.

I ended up not being able to stop smiling as I got changed and went to sleep.
