Y/n: "Shousuke, can you dry my hair?" says a sleepy Y/n in my doorway. What? Y/n: "Your mom and Shouko are busy. Can you, ple~~ase?" I look back and forth between her and the hairdryer. I feel my cheeks start to heat up. My heart starts racing and my stomach fills with butterflies. I swallow. I turn my head away and reply with, Shousuke: "Mmhmm." I can tell I'm blushing madly. I hope she doesn't notice. (Author-san: Don't worry. She didn't. Her brain's like half-asleep.) Y/n: "Okay. I'll plug it in." She's looking for an outlet, but my mind is running at a million miles a minute. I grip my shirt near my wildly beating heart and run my fingers through my hair with the other. I need to calm down. I take a deep breath and let it out. Okay. Calm down. Y/n: "'Kay! Ready!" she says, with a close-eyed smile. Cute! I walk over and sit down behind her. She looks over her shoulder and says, Y/n: "Thanks for doing this." I can feel the steam rising off my head as I look down at the ground. Shousuke: "Mmmn." was all I could think to say. She faced forward again and says, Y/n: "Ready when you are!" I sit there, dumbfounded. Is this really happening? I swallow, then start to blow dry her beautiful, silky hair. We sat in blissful silence, with only the blow dryer's constant whirring.

Her hair smells really nice. What am I thinking?! Her hair's almost dry. Her hair's really soft and fluffy. Ugh! I'm so weird! Why'd I think that? I'm so embarrassed! I'm so stupid. Why did-huh?
[Y/n's point of view]
This feels nice. It's so peaceful. Did I bother him by asking him to do this? I hope I didn't, but all the same... So... tired. I should... go to bed... sometime soon...
[Shousuke's point of view]
She's falling asleep. Cute!! She's so tired. She must've had a fun day. Oh, she's asleep now. I'll turn off the blow dryer. What should I do? I pick her up, bridal style. Y/n snuggles in. This is bad for my heart! I take her to Shouko's room and lay her on the futon.
[No one's point of view]
As Shousuke slid his arm out from under Y/n, she grabbed it and started hugging and snuggling it. Shousuke's face turned all kinds of red as his eyes widened in complete and utter shock. His heart was in his throat. How could he escape without waking her? He was trapped!

Mrs. Komi: "So cute!"
What.
Was.
That?
I looked over to the door in horror as Mom and Shouko stood there looking back at me. Mrs. Komi: "And I got it all on video, too!" I could feel the color drain from my face at her words.
I'm frozen.
Shocked.
Appalled.
How.
Could.
She?!
Y/n stirs and rolls over, letting go of my arm. Color races back to my cheeks, realizing what they saw and what just happened. Shousuke: "Delete it." Mom looked shocked. Mrs. Komi: "Wow, you really do like her!" Shouko nods ecstatically. I huff and leave the room. Mrs. Komi: "Aww, poor Shousuke's mad. He'll come around though, I'm sure." I slam the door to my room. I rest my back against the door. I slid down and sit on the floor. I can't believe my mom. She's the worst. I look at my arm. The one Y/n cuddled. At least, not the whole day was awful.
