∞ V: Your Idiot

Waking up in his arms made it hard to get up from bed, needing to take an extra minute to admire and trace his peaceful face covered by strands of hair.

She gave him a small peck on the cheek, wanting to wake him up. It only made him strengthen his embrace around her, which a few seconds later loosened, announcing that he was still sound asleep. After releasing her body, she went to the bathroom to start the day.

Waiting for the water to warm, she stared at her swollen lips in the mirror. Her fingers traced them as her mind lingered on the memory of the night, closing her eyes, thinking how his lips, teeth, and tongue had felt. He was like a drug, causing Y/n to want more.

Realizing she had spent a long time in her thoughts by finding the restroom full of steam from the hot water, she rushed to shower and change.

As she finished brushing her hair, Baji came behind her with a drowsy expression, yawning before embracing her and resting his chin on her shoulder. "Why didn't you wake me up?"

She looked at their reflection and couldn't help but blush with a shy smile. The butterflies in her stomach were unstoppable, and her heart fluttered just at the sight of them together that way.

"I tried, but someone is a sleepyhead." She turned over and kissed his cheek. After that, she rested her head on his chest, feeling his fast heartbeat. "Take a shower. We still have time to get a quick breakfast."

Before she could leave the bathroom, the boy pulled her hand, making her crash onto his body. Y/n looked up at him, hypnotized by how handsome his sleepy face could be.

Baji's mouth twirled up, and his hand held the side of her face, taking off a strand and setting it behind her ear. "French toast?"

"Hurry up, or I will eat them all."

Sharing breakfast with him became another thing to add to her list of favorite things. Fighting over the last piece of toast, feeding each other, hearing his silly stories, laughing out loud so early in the morning, the quick little pecks, and the sudden tickles. 

There was no doubt they could get used to mornings like this.

The amusement kept going between the teens on their way to her school.

"Coward. If, from the beginning, you wanted to stay, why didn't you say so? We could have cuddled longer." She mocked him, giving him a slight nudge in the ribs with a puppy face.

"I didn't want to seem like a pervert."

"Are you calling me a pervert!?" She playfully faked being offended.

"And I'm glad you are!" He kept the thread of the joke, bringing her closer, crossing her neck with his arm while they kept walking. "I had a wonderful time, and I slept pretty well."

"Me too, but I was thinking..."

"What's troubling you, Y/n?"

"I just want to scream the world we are... hm... what are we?"

"A couple or maybe a pair of best friends with feelings?"

The boy fell silent, thinking about how he should ask her to be officially his girlfriend. It had to be something big, or maybe something intimate. Would she like a picnic or dinner? Maybe wait for her after school, his division helping him to hold each letter of the question. Everything seemed like a great idea in his head.

"Okay, whichever, the point is, I think we should at least wait for things to settle down with Moebius." Trying not to upset him, she reached to hold his hand hanging over her shoulder. "I feel guilty. While the others were still worried about the fight, we played Mario Kart and made out."
