"CRUSH"

kazuha took [y/n] to every corner of the northern part of inazuma. they were now resting in his place in the middle of the woods, far away from the town. it wasn't all fancy and big but it was cozy and enough.

"i told you, you could've just stayed in a hotel." kazuha's lips formed into a thin line out of nervousness as he eyed for [y/n]'s reaction on the simply decorated dim living room. "i rarely visit-" the boy tried to explain. "it's not a big deal. thank you for giving me a place to stay." [y/n] cut him off as they smiled."it's not as bad as you think it is. i actually prefer this more than some lavish hotel room costing 50k mora."

the boy nodded softly. "i'll go clean up, i haven't been here for months." kazuha started to make his way towards the cleaning supplies. [y/n] dropped their belongings near the couch and followed. "no no, you stay over there and i'll handle this." the white haired said as he felt his friend's presence behind him. [y/n] shook their head and snatched the broom from him.

"you're not letting me pay for my stay in your property. the least i could do is help you clean it." [y/n] immediately got to work. kazuha knew he couldn't do anything about it so he decided not to retort.

after an hour of cleaning, they both plopped down the couch almost simultaneously. they sat in silence. [y/n]'s eyes focused on the wooden ceiling, thinking of a topic to share with the boy. "so, kazuha..what exactly.." they stopped mid sentence to look at the samurai who already fell asleep out of exhaustion.

[y/n] couldn't stop the small smile stretching on their lips at the sight of the man peacefully sleeping. once they noticed the awkward position he was in they softly laid kazuha's head on their lap. the boy snuggled in and lifted both his legs on the end of the sofa, not aware that he was technically using a person as a pillow. at his situation it's not surprising, they were wandering around ever since they first set foot in inazuma.

[y/n] brushed his bangs off his face with their fingers gently. pretty boy. they thought. the boy's heavenly beauty was the last thing they saw as the sleepiness finally took hit on them and their eyes shut close, their head laid back comfortably.

kazuha's eyes slowly opened, he shut his eyes close again and sat up, trying to blink away the bluriness of his view. it was still dark outside, he assumed that it was already past midnight.

he turned around to see [y/n] sleeping with their mouth slightly agape. it took a minute or two for him to realize that he slept on them. the boy panicked inside as a hand flew to his mouth, blushing furiously. once he calmed down he stood up from the couch.

should i carry them to the room? his face formed into a thinking face. what if i wake them up?? he stared down at the person. but it'd be rude to just leave them here while i take the bed. he was obviously inexperienced, he never had anyone to come over. but if i carry them what if they assume that i have bad intentions in mind??!

the poor boy started to mumble things, barely audible. not noticing their friend waking up from their slumber. they groaned softly and that caught kazuha's attention. [y/n] blinked. "did something happen?" they looked around, assuming that some hint of danger woke the boy up. "no, uhm.."

[y/n] slid down on the sofa and stretched their arms up. "you can continue your sleep in the room, i'll sleep on the couch." kazuha spoke. "huh? no, i'm fine with sleeping on the couch." [y/n] responded. "you're taking the bed. it's more comfy there."

"why don't we share the room then?" [y/n] suggested, smiling innocently. "huh?-" kazuha choked on his words. "are you sure you're okay with that??" "why wouldn't i be? it'd be unfair for one of us to freeze in here."

[y/n] knew what they were doing, but of course they were just joking around. "there's only one bed.." kazuha blushed slightly. [y/n] smirked at his reaction, "i was just kidding. you take the bed, i'm not tired yet anyway." the cryo wielder stood up and slid on their coat.

"where are you going?" kazuha watched them as they slid the door open. "a walk."
"at this hour?"
"mhm." [y/n] responded as if it was a normal activity. well, for them, it was. kazuha crossed his arms.
"i'm coming with you."

the cold air softly touched their skin as they walk around the open parts of the forest, the moon and the stars the only source of light. kazuha led them to a grassy field with small white flowers swaying with the air.

at first it looked like there was nothing special to it, that until kazuha softly gripped their wrist and walked on the grass. fireflies started to fly up from the grass they were walking on. [y/n] couldn't hold back their childishness and ran around the field, pulling kazuha with them, uncountable fireflies appeared.

now it looked like the stars were down there with them, flying around their figures in a slowed-motion like way. they both stopped to admire the scene. the samurai smiled at the sight of [y/n] scanning their surroundings around like an amazed child. oh how he strongly felt like cherishing them despite only meeting for a few days. have i developed..a crush on someone? he questioned silently.

he failed to notice that the person he was lovingly staring at earlier was already standing in front of him. their eyes meet once he lifted his head up. as they keep their eyes in contact they couldn't help but blush and avert their focus on something else. kazuha's heart felt like it was about to jump out his chest. shit. that's when he got his answer. he didn't want to deny nor complain though. he liked the feeling. might as well watch where it would take him.
