After hanging out in the courtyard with Nagito and his classmates that evening, he walks you home so that you can go to bed. By now, the air has chilled significantly. It makes you realize that fall is upon you. From here, it'll begin to get colder and colder each day. It'll also begin getting darker earlier on as the days progress. It's weird to think that so much has happened since the school year has begun and yet so little time has passed. But each day is indeed beginning to go by faster and faster. Winter's also right around the corner.
You used to hate winter because it meant you'd have to trudge through snow alone and risk being late due to the weather. But this year, you're feeling a lot more hopeful about things. You finally have someone to walk with, yes, but you're also possibly not going to even be in your current school anymore. Hope's Peak is extremely close to your house and you don't have to even worry about being late. It sounds like it'll be a paradise for you if things go your way. You have yet to tell your parents about this, though you know they'll be supportive of you being accepted to such a prestigious school. You make a mental note to tell them not to spread the news to your extended family. You don't like attention on you and you especially don't like having it on you only when it involves something relating to status.
Except for Nagito... A part of you tells yourself subconsciously.
Now, as the two of you stand in front of your place, you say goodnight to your best friend. You also thank him for the amazing day you had. You contemplate telling him how much the hug meant to you but you decide against it. You're not quite ready to confess anything yet.
"No, thank you, (y/n)," He counters. "You made this day truly amazing for me and the ultimates. They are so happy about you becoming one of them. I'm a bit worried though."
You ask him what he's worried about.
"Well...this is shameful of me to say, but I'm worried hanging around trash like me will be no good for you," Nagito admits, still oddly smiling. His eyes are unfocused. Once again, he's looking at his hand. "I mean, you'll be an ultimate. You will be far above me. You have a real talent, (y/n). But...well, I have no business talking about this. I don't want to bother you with my worthless ramblings."
You tell him your ramblings are worthless and you also take the opportunity to remind him that you will always be his best friend. You wish you could tell him how you feel about him as well but you can't bring yourself to do so. Hell, your voice is quivering at the mere thought of it!
Nagito stares fondly at you. His eyes suddenly become filled with tearful emotion. "Oh, (yn), thank you! You are truly an amazing person...ultimate or not, you are the kindest person I have ever known. You fill me with a type of hope I have never felt before."
You thank him for thanking you and giggle at the absurdity of it. Then you sincerely tell him that you will always be there for him. You then say goodnight, suddenly too nervous to continue facing the boy of your dreams.
"Ah, yes, I should go so that you can get some sleep. Tomorrow may be a good day for you." Nagito turns his body in preparation to walk away, though he keeps his head turned to look at you. "Goodnight, (y/n). I am sure my luck cycle will allow this to happen!"
After he says goodnight and leaves, you head into your home. Since it's evening and you had a big day, you're tired and you decide to go to bed. You do your normal routine and head straight to your bed. Due to your excitement about what was going on, it takes you a bit to fall asleep. But when you do, you have a very...interesting...dream.
***
It is dark and you are alone in your home with Nagito. For whatever reason, the power is out and the place is lit only with candles. Your parents are gone somewhere, yet it seems as though it's nighttime. Your mind somehow rationalizes this despite you not knowing where they are this late into the night.
Nagito is sitting beside you on your couch. For some reason, he has taken off his top and blazer and is sitting there shirtless.
You ask him what he's doing, more or less in shock to see your bestie- and the boy you love, of course- sitting there without his shirt on. You don't think you've ever seen him completely shirtless! You are baffled and confused.
when Nagito turns to you, he has a knowing smile on his face. "Shh, (y/n), there's no need to worry. I just had to take it off because of the weather, you know?"
You don't know, yet you nod as though his "explanation" makes sense.
"Come." Nagito extends his hand to you to help you out. The way he does so is almost romantic in nature. "Let's go to your room."
You nod, though you are baffled and confused. You allow him to guide you through your place to your room. For some reason, there are enough candles in each section of the house to properly light things up whilst also keeping the place in a dim setting. This includes your bedroom.
Nagito sits you down on your bed and plops beside you. He turns to face you, licking his upper lip. "Come, (y/n), let us kiss and spread hope!"
Before you have any idea what's going on, he pressed his lips to yours. He is kissing you.
You kiss him back before jumping up with a startled yelp. You are confused. Something about the setting and situation doesn't seem right...yet you really do want to sit and kiss him.
***
You wake up almost immediately, feeling stupid. You must have realized that the scenario had just been a dream, which had ejected you from it.
As you try to go to sleep again, you hope that you end up continuing the dream...but, alas, you sadly don't.
