Love is a big word /Kenma x reader

5️⃣

________________________________________________________________________________

She couldn't believe it ,  she had a Boyfriend. She , the girl with no social skills . Her head was swarmed by thoughts if her new relationship making warmth spread trough her chest.

She laid in her warm bed, lost in deep thoughts about Kozume and their new found relationship. It was almost surreal to her because she had never been in a romantic relationship before. As she gazed up her ceiling, a gentle smile formed on her face as she was thinking about the boy with pudding-like hair. 

Every single thought that occupied her mind revolved around him. Even simple tasks like doing homework seemed to take much longer than usual because her mind was constantly drifting back to him. She couldn't sleep, but strangely enough, it wasn't due to any troubling thoughts. It was because thoughts of Kenma filled her mind, bringing her a sense of warmth and contentment. She never felt that way.

Feeling restless, Y/N decided to change her position in bed, hoping it would help her fall asleep. However, no matter how much she tossed and turned, she couldn't shake off thoughts of the adorable boy. Giving up on sleep for the moment, she finally gave in to the urge to get out of bed.

She made her way to the bathroom and splashed some cold water on her face, hoping it would clear her mind. 

Afterwards, she grabbed her trusty notebook and started doodling some randomsketches, trying to divert her thoughts . Eventually, exhaustion took hold of her, and she drifted off into a peaceful slumber, with dreams of Kozume filling her mind.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 As she slowly woke up to the sound of her phone's alarm, she couldn't help but let out a groan. It felt like the world was against her, urging her to stay in her warm and cozy bed. Oh, how tempting it was to give in and surrender to the comfort of her blankets. Alas, duty called, and she had to drag herself out of bed to face another day at school.

 With heavy steps, Y/N made her way to the bathroom, feeling the weight of exhaustion clinging to her body. As she stared at her reflection in the mirror, she couldn't help but notice the tiredness that creeped on her face. The thought of putting on makeup seemed so hard, it required a level of motivation that Y/N simply didn't had at that moment. But then, She remembered the importance of her appearance for school. So, she mustered up whatever energy she had left and startet on her makeup routine, applying each product to her features. After what felt like an eternity, Y/N finally completed her makeup and moved on to taming her unruly hair.

 As she stood in front of her bedroom mirror, running a brush through her strands, Y/N couldn't help but wonder if all this effort was worth it. Was she trying to impress someone? Perhaps it was the lingering thought of Kenma that gave her the desire to look her best. After he had confessed his feelings to her , they had spent a wonderful day together at the park. But since then, there had been silence. No texts, no calls. Just void that left her questioning if she had done something wrong. Was he already regretting it?..Y/N decided to send Kenma a quick good morning message, hoping to break the silence and ease her growing anxiety. 

However, a nagging voice in the back of her mind whispered about her doubts and insecurities. Was she really girlfriend material? Did she have the qualities that Kenma liked in a partner? The harsh reality of comparing herself to the girls, who seemed effortlessly beautiful and confident, only made her self-doubt worse. But deep down, she knew that beauty was subjective and that her personality was far beyond my appearance. (You guys are so Good looking, dont doubt yousrself , you are gorgeous 🩷🎀 )

With a toast in her hand and her school bag slung over her shoulder, Y/N checked her phone for any signs of a reply from Kenma. Disappointment washed over her as she realized that he hadn't responded yet. It was the bitter reality, but she couldn't let it consume her thoughts. She still had the whole day to talk to him . 

Taking a deep breath, she left the comfort of her home and made her way out into the suffocations of the streets. The sun greeted her with its warm embrace, casting a golden shine over everything it touched. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When Y/N arrived at school, a wave of exhaustion washed over her, threatening to drag her down. Her steps were heavy as she made her way through the hallways, and it didn't go unnoticed by her friend Sakiko. 

She approached a
Y/N with concern evident in her eyes."You look down, what's wrong?" she asked, her voice filled with genuine worry. 

Y/N hesitated for a moment, contemplating whether or not to share her inner turmoil with her friend. But then she remembered the conversation she had with Kenma, where they had decided to keep their relationship a secret in order to avoid unwanted attention. Both of them were socially akward and didn't feel the need to get questioned or whatsoever about their relationship.

"I'm just tired," Y/N finally replied, not wanting to burden Sakiko with the truth. 

"You're always tired, but you don't seem down," she observed, her curiosity showing. Y/N sighed inwardly, her mind racing with conflicting thoughts and emotions. Should she tell her? Should she tell her about Kenma? But a part of Y/N was just to lazy to tell Sakiko. 

"Well, I am more tired than usual," she admitted, hoping that would be enough to satisfy her.

 Sakiko seemed to sense her mood not to share further, and she didn't press the matter any further. As they parted ways, Sakiko needed to head to her class on the other side of the school.

Y/N felt a moment of relief, grateful for the temporary stopping of questions from her . But just as she thought she could catch her breath, Y/N felt a tap on her shoulder, causing her to startle and turn around abruptly. 

To her surprise, it was Kenma standing there, a mixture of relief and nervousnessetched on her face. "Oh, hey Kenma," she greeted him, attempting to avoid eye contact. However, he had a different idea in mind. He gently used his finger to tilt her chin, forcing Y/N to look directly at him. 

She reacted instinctively, slapping his hand away in a quick reflex. 

"We're in public," she scolded, her heart pounding violently in her chest as she scanned their surroundings for any potential students. Thankfully, there weren't many people around to witness their exchange. 

Kenma's expression softened. "Yeah, sorry about that," he murmured. "So, how are you?" he asked. 

She took a moment to collect her thoughts."Okay, I didn't get much sleep, but it's okay," Shs confessed. Kenma nodded, acknowledging Y/N's words. 

"Well, I need to get to class," he mentioned, scratching theback of his head nervously. "Maybe we could spend lunch outside and alone," he suggested, his voice filled with a hint of hope. 

Y/! couldn't help but feel a surge of warmth at his proposal. The idea of spending some quality time together was the best thing ."Sure, that sounds nice," she responded, unableto hide the smile that crept onto her lips. 

Before parting ways, she couldn't resist the urge and with no one watching, she pressed a quick kiss on his cheek, silently giving her affection to him. 

As she made her way to class, a sense of relief washed over her. Kenma hadn't ignored her or pushed her away. Maybe he just wasn't much of a texter .
