My Hero // Baji Keisuke

~61~

D-did he just k-kiss me?!

The two of you were blushing. You were frozen in place processing what happened.

I did it. I kissed her.

You were feeling butterflies in your stomach and you couldn't stop smiling. You wanted to feel that feeling again. Without thinking, you got on your tiptoes to give him a kiss. Baji was surprised that you kissed him, but he didn't mind.

"That was nice." Baji said.

"Y-yeah, it was."

"We should do it more."

You felt your face getting hotter. He just smiled. "Let's go, it's getting late." He said as he held your hand.

The two of you couldn't stop thinking about the kiss. You both were feeling really happy at the moment. Arriving home, Ryoko was taking a nap on the couch. You two tried to be quiet when entering, but she woke up once you guys were inside.

"It's about time you guys got back."

"Sorry we got back late." You said.

She noticed how the two of you were in a really good mood. As always, she wanted to know what happened. She knew you would tell her all about it, so she waited for Baji to leave so it can just be the two of you.

"We're going to bed." Baji said as he started to leave. You followed behind him.

"Y/N-chan, wait. I have to tell you something."

You were curious as to what she wanted.

"Mom, you can tell her tomorrow. We're both tired."

"This is important, I can't wait until tomorrow."

You decided to stay and Baji went into his room.

"What do you want to tell me?"

"Something happened between you two, right?"

She always knows. "Yeah."

"Tell me all about it." She said excitedly.

Honestly, you wanted to tell someone what happened. Even if it was Ryoko, you didn't care. You wanted to share your happiness.

"You guys kissed?!" She said a bit too loud.

"Shh. He might hear you."

"Oh, sorry. But that's so cute! You guys are growing up so fast." She said as she gave you a tight hug.

"It was amazing."

"I bet it was."

"Anyways, let's go to bed. I know you're tired, so I don't want to keep you up any longer."

The two of you went to bed. Even if you were tired, your couldn't sleep just thinking about what happened. You had this big smile on your face. Baji also couldn't sleep. He still couldn't believe you kissed him as well. He knew you were still a bit shy, but he was caught by surprise when you kissed him.

The next day...
Morning...

Both you and Baji woke up in a good mood. When you went to go have breakfast, you saw Baji there. It was unusual for him to be up on time. He'd usually sleep a bit more before getting up.

The two of you left a little early for school. Ryoko thought that you guys wanted some time alone before heading to school. You guys went to go for a walk in the park.
