In a lively party filled with cheerful chatter, laughter, and upbeat music, a stoic, tall, handsome man named Toji stood, his back against the wall. Known for his intimidating exterior and cold demeanor, he seemed to be cloaked in a perpetual dark cloud that the vibrancy of the party couldn't dissipate.
Across the room, there you were, Y/n, a woman of short stature and an infectious smile. Your energetic and kind nature brought life to the party. Noticing Toji, you made your way towards him, a playful glint lighting up your eyes.
"Why so gloomy, Toji?" you inquired, positioning yourself against the wall beside him. He shot you an arch look, a sarcastic smile playing on his lips, "It's my natural charm, didn't you know?" You chuckled at his quip, nudging him lightly, "You're not fooling anyone, Toji. What are you waiting for?"
His brows furrowed at your question, it resonated within him, echoing the nagging voice he had been incessantly ignoring. Toji was battling his own realm of fear and doubt, petrified to confess his burgeoning feelings for you. As the evening advanced, the question 'What am I waiting for?' reverberated in his mind, prompting him to confront his feelings.
"Y/n," he began, a rare softness creeping into his voice. You turned towards him, your curiosity piqued. "I..." He hesitated, uncomfortable stepping into the unfamiliar realm of vulnerability. But then, the fleeting nature of life dawned on him, urging him to seize opportunities. "I'm scared," he confessed, his gaze locked with yours.
'Toji, scared? That's new,' you pondered, your initial surprise giving way to empathy. Watching his unveiled vulnerability, your heart sympathized for him, your caring nature instinctively stepping forward to offer him comfort.
You studied him, surprise and warmth radiating from your face. "Of what, Toji?" you asked gently, placing your hand on his arm. "Of taking the risk... and of being alone," he admitted, the tension in his body palpable. Your smile softened as you gave his arm a comforting squeeze. "Toji, it's your life, and your decisions. And remember, you're never alone when you have people who care about you."
In that moment, it dawned upon Toji that he too could muster the strength to voice his feelings, regardless of the consequences. With a newfound resolve, Toji straightened up, his gaze fixed on yours. "Y/n, I..." He paused, swallowed hard, then let the words roll off his tongue. "I have feelings for you."
Your eyes widened in surprise, and then a beaming smile stretched across your face. Seeing this, a weight seemed to lift off Toji's chest, and he returned your smile. The words that had been echoing in his mind finally found their meaning. 'What was he waiting for?' Nothing, anymore.
