003;PEOPLE can form relationships, it's just apart of human nature. whether the relationship is something that was right for the brain snd comforting to the heart or a relationship that's just filled up an empty void in one's body, it was a way humans had coped.
unfortunately for jirou, she was one of those people. she never liked to believe that validation gave her a certain push to things or made her stomach tingle with acknowledgment— it made her feel lower than how she wanted to be.
she tried denying it for long but with the more words given to her the harder it was to think differently, especially when she met yaomomo.
her relations with yaomomo were known as intimate only between them. people around them knew they were close but not how close, they knew they went to each other in certain need but they didn't know what that need was. that need wasn't even a need, at least for yaomomo it was more of a want and wanting and needing have always been two different things.
jirou thought she did need the intimacy but a part of her also knew it wasn't a need, more of a fulfillment for herself. right now she was laying across the girl's bed in only a tank top and sweatpants, the only thing being heard were the scratch marks from momo's pencil and the low vibration of music coming from her phone.
intimacy also had feelings with them, if there were no feelings before the intimacy than feelings were sure to come with it and with the level of intimacy the girls had shared it wasn't a surprise when jirou started feeling only a little different.
it wasn't major but it was definitely something she'd like to elaborate with "yaomomo" she called out but the neither of the girl's positions moved "yes?" she answered only after a few seconds, which was fine with her.
"you wanna go somewhere?" she asked lowly yet still audible, a pit was hovering over her stomach as the words slipped out because the thought of doing this was so much easier than actually doing it.
to this the other girl let an airy giggle "we went out a few days ago you know" she responded and to this she was both right and wrong. yes they had gone out for a bit, out bowling and then eating a lunch and ending their time at a nearby lake. the part where she was wrong was where the "we" in that scenario wasn't just the two instead that "we" was the two of them and five of their shared friends.
the girl's eyes rolled at her words "I meant us , what if we went out" and this is where the conversation ends. if it wasn't obvious this wasn't the first time jirou had done this, it was the third and as much as people love to say "third times a charm" for her it never seemed like it.
it seemed like this time it was worse , using the words us and we weren't necessarily needed in her words and using the words us and we made it seem like this was more important than it needed to be.
truth be told both words held rather bigger meanings when put in certain context and this was one of the certain contexts that were mentioned. the girl's back was turned the opposite direction in her chair so jirou couldn't exactly see her facial expressions but judging from the grip on her pencil she could bet coins on the roll of her eyes.
it had been quiet for too long and jirou hated waiting. that one second turned into three and those three seconds turned into one minute and then that one minute turned into three minutes and 44 seconds, yes she kept count.
"well I would but I've been planning to ask shoto to an event of mine"
oh.
the room was held with silence and the background of music and air conditioning once again. jirou didn't respond instead she took in the girl's words. being indirectly rejected for the third time was something jirou didn't know she could handle because her brain also got the best of her.
she wanted to know what words yaomomo had actually wanted to say, sure she knows about the event since she talked about it at least two weeks prior but she also wanted to be flat out rejected.
she had gotten tired of the indirect answers with the comeback of intimacy within their relationship, it made her frustrated and she didn't like being frustrated. a possible thought was that momo was just being nice because well she was, momo had always been nice even before sharing each other's wants.
the need of a direct answer was also needed because jirou didn't even have a competition. at the start of this there was always a thought that would linger at the back of her mind that yaomomo did this to get rid of underlying feelings for their classmate, todoroki.
but that idea went out the window when momo came balling to the class in their shared living room coming out as a lesbian and when todoroki and midoriya finally confessed hidden romantic feelings about a month ago.
thinking of that, jirou wanted competition. of course it would hurt to compare herself to someone who would've been the complete opposite of her and better if possible but it also felt like a stab to the gut when she'd have to sink in the feeling that yaomomo wanted nobody rather than her.
when she left the girl's dorm that night to move to her's the only thoughts lingering in her mind were the needed comfort of her bed rather than anyone else's and how her heart couldn't stand sharing more intimacy than needed with anyone.
AUTHORS NOTE:
I love momo and jirou
