~Kaveh x Alhaitham one shots~

//Just a joke (🖤-->💘)//

A/n: Hello! So, this amazing idea was from @x_xAthenax_x ! Give them some love and credit for this amazing idea!! I had so much fun writing this whole one shot, so I hope you enjoy this!! <3

Kaveh's POV:
I was sitting in my room, until a random idea occurred into my head. Alhaitham had always teased me. I just hated his personality.. but I didn't hate his personality? I actually liked it?..Whatever. Doesn't matter. I should just stop thinking of stupid things. But, I had a little joke I was going to pull on Alhaitham to see if he truly cared. Like a trust fall, expect, I knew he wouldn't catch me, so I decided that I would just make a joke about moving out.

And see exactly how he would react. To see if he truly cares about his roommate. Ever since I ranted to that one guy in the Akademiya about Alhaitham, there's been rumors all around the Akademiya. As if we were more than people that didn't get along. People speculated that we were more than that... maybe those rumors made him care about me enough to cry? Eh, let's just test this out. I'm excited!

"Hey Haitham!~" I called, a smug tone accumulating through my voice. "Ugh.. what do you want Kaveh?" He said, clearly annoyed. I giggled, almost as if I were drunk. "What if I moved out? I know you've been telling me to build a palace for myself, so I did! I did in secret just to surprise you! Ya happy?" I asked him, extremely happy. Pretending like I truly meant it.

"Really?" Alhaitham said, his eyes growing wide every passing second. His mouth practically on the floor. I had to try as hard as I possibly could not to burst out laughing at how ridiculous he looked. "Mhm! So, I'm gonna move out next week! So you'll have the house all for yourself like you used to." I gave him a big happy smile and walked off. hah. I just wanted to laugh. He looked like an absolute idiot! I couldn't help but laugh a little.

Alhaitham's POV:
So.. he's truly moving out.. huh... I never thought he would actually move out. But, for some reason, I don't want him to go. I don't get why. Of course, he was annoying. He's the reason I keep getting headaches in the morning. But, why do I not wish for him to leave? (SORRY FOR MAKING HAITHAM SOUND LIKE A 90 YEAR OLD MAN 💀)

I walked into my room to contemplate things more. So, Kaveh is my roommate. We obviously don't get along. Well, not really. The only reason I treat him like this is because he isn't comfortable with accepting kindness directly. Even if it isn't healthy, I have to treat him like this. He won't want it any other way. I want to be nice to him, but he hates my personality. And doesn't accept kindness directly.

Ok, I've got that much down. What else do I have for him? Well, he is somebody who gives me company. It feels so lonely and empty without him in this house. But, that doesn't seem like something I would truly care about. He is kind of.. pretty. No stop! What the heck are you thinking about? There's no way he would love you. Nobody could ever love somebody like you.

"Kaveh deserves someone better. Stop thinking you actually have a chance." I whispered to myself. Why did I not want to see him go? Wouldn't I be happy? He just gave me a headache each morning. I hated seeing him in the morning? But, then, why would I be acting like this about him? About just a boy. That's all he is. Just a boy.

But, he's.. special. Why would I not want him to go? Company is most definitely not the reason. I could definitely invite someone over, or adopt a pet. So.. what is he to me other than my roommate? Could I be.. in love with him? How could I be in love with him? How could I fall in love with him so randomly?

Damn it. I should just stop denying it. But, I've never understood emotions. How could I tell him I loved him. It's going to be so empty in here without him.. It's..it's just going to hurt not seeing him in the morning anymore. Why is the universe like this? How did I even fall in love with him? Why is the world so unfair? He can't go. He just can't leave me.

He's the first person I fell in love with.. there's no way he can leave me all alone. But, I can't do anything about it.. he's going to leave me anyways.. why did the universe have to be like this? It felt like it was getting harder and harder to breath, my stomach felt like it was twisting and turning into different knots. I had to start breathing through my mouth, though that was getting more and more difficult to do. What was happening?... I didn't even know.. why was I letting my emotions get the best of me? Snap out of it Alhaitham.. snap out of it..!

Could this be truly what happens when you fall in love with someone? I fell onto the ground, barely unable to move everything. Hardly being able to feel anything, hardly being able to breathe.. this hurt. I can't just force him to not go. That would be selfish of me, my mind was making me feel insane, nothing felt the same as it did before. I couldn't even breathe properly. I just needed to calm down. I needed him... I needed him?.. "Ka-Kaveh..." I muttered under my breath. Though my words mostly swirled together due to my condition.

Kaveh's POV:
It's been awhile since I pranked him. I kinda wanna go see if he took it seriously. To see if he even cares about me. I slowly started approaching his room, only to hear rapid breathing and whispering. Huh.. what was going on in there? I slowly opened the door, not even caring to see if Alhaitham would answer. I just wanted to know that he was ok.

...What the.. I opened the door, finding him wound up on the floor breathing at an excessively fast rate. It was almost inhuman. He was whispering so many things so quickly that I couldn't even understand what he was saying. "ALHAITHAM!" I yelled, running to his side. I pulled him close and hugged him tightly. "Alhaitham! What happened?!" I screamed. Forgetting about what I came here to do in the first place.

"K-Kaveh..." he muttered, clearly trying to catch his breath. I wrapped my arms around him. "Shh.. it's going to be ok. Shh.. whatever it is, it'll all be ok. You don't even have to talk. Just catch your breath..." I told him, rubbing circles on his back, trying to make him feel less uncomfortable. I pulled him closer, acting like we could get closer.

He held onto me tighter, his tears wetting my shoulder. But, I could care less. What was making him cry so much? I've never seen him like this. I've never seen his emotions get the best of him. Was it the joke I made about me moving out? No.. there's no way. He has to much pride and arrogance to let his emotions get the best of him.

I watched as he slowly gained more and more of his sanity back, as he started breathing normally. "What.. what happened, Alhaitham?" He held onto me tighter, trying his hardest not to hurt me. I ruffled his hair, trying to show him that he could trust me. And, that I obviously wouldn't judge him. And, I would be there for him, regardless of how I acted towards him.

"Alhaitham, I wanted to tell you that.. I'm not actually moving out. It was just a joke." I told him, trying to start a conversation so that he could tell me what happened. "..And, I won't judge you for whatever happened. Regardless of what you were upset about." Alhaitham sighed, and continued laying down on my shoulder. "...I.. I just thought of something. And, then my emotions got the best of me. It's ok. Don't worry about me." He told me.

"Alhaitham, I can't not worry about you if you were having a breakdown a minute ago.." I whispered into his ear. "No.. it's nothing. Really. I'm fine." He said, hugging me tighter. I felt happy that he was in my arms. I was happy that I was with him. I was happy that he was here. I could feel the red spreading across my face. I.. loved him.. didn't I?
