No Light (Oregairu X TQQ X Hyouka)

Chapter 35 : Holidays

Hotaro: Congratulations, dude.

Y/n: Are you making fun of me? What do I do?!

Hotaro: What's up with you? Just rejecting her proposal like you always do with other girls?

Y/n: You don't understand, man. It's not that simple. Please help me.

Hotaro: You're asking the wrong person for advice.

Y/n: Fine, have fun with Eru at that hot spring. Bye.

Hotaro: How did you... *hangs up*

Y/n's mind: So much for asking him... *worried* What do I do now? I don't have an answer ready yet! Okay, Y/n, play it cool and act as if you heard nothing.

I came out from the washroom of the store, and everyone was currently celebrating passing the finals.

Y/n: Order whatever you want, the treats are on me.

Itsuki: *star eyes* Really?!

Itsuki buried her head in the menu.

During the entire party, Nino kept staring at me.

-End of the party-

Fuutarou: You don't need to help me, you know.

Y/n: You've helped me a lot. This is the least I can do.

Fuutarou: I think it's the other way around.

Fuutarou's boss: Uesugi!

Fuutarou: Coming! *Leaves*

Y/n's mind: What do I say to Nino? I don't have an answer yet-

Nino: Y/n!

Y/n: "Y-yes!?" I jumped, and the plate almost fell from my hands.

Nino: What's Wrong?

Y/n mind: act normal.

Y/n: Nothing I was just surprised that's all, need anything?

Nino: Oh, No I just wanted to thank the boss for letting us hold a party here, where is he and Uesugi?

Y/n: They had some work so they left, they'll probably be back soon.

Nino:*blush* So~ About the thing on the bike.

Y/n: What thing?

Nino: Huh!?

Y/n: I didn't hear anything because the wind was blowing in my ears, why what happened?

Nino: I-it's

Nino looked down and clenched her fist.

Y/n mind: shit did I hurt her feelings!!!!!

Nino pushed me back, my back was now against the sink. she then put her leg between mine and then proceeded to wrap her hands around my neck pulled me closer and whispered in my ear.

Nino: I said I love you N/n, you don't have to give me an answer.

She then proceeds to kiss me on the cheek and left.

-Transition Next Day-

I was in my bed thinking about yesterday.

"I said I love you n/n you don't have to give me an answer."

Y/n: What do I do? *Ring...Ring*

Y/n: Hello?

Itsuki: Hello, Y/n?

Y/n: Itsuki!!!

Itsuki: What's wrong?

Y/n: Nothing.
