as they got back to the academy while y/n was sitting in his bed and reading a book against her will to be there, she sat there quietly while five were busy writing equations on his wall with chalk.
"oh, i think i've found something delores."
y/n rolled her eyes, she only agreed to be here because he said they'd talk after he was done but all he had been doing was talking to delores. she had enough closing her book loud enough for him to hear making five look at her and hop down to sit next to her.
with this, y/n stood up and wanted to leave because it was awkward but five grabbed her wrist tugging her down to the seat again. she tried standing up again but five let her sit again making y/n scoff and shoot him a look, while five inhaled sharply, "i know you're upset..."
"wow, stating an obvious." y/n hissed tugging her wrist away from him as she crossed her arms,
"can you listen to me for a while, please? i'll make it up to you."
"that's what you said earlier but all your attention is either to that..." she pointed at the wall full of equations, "or that...!" she added pointing at delores who innocently didn't know anything.
"okay, i'll give you some of my attention then, if that's what you want."
y/n could feel her cheeks warm up at the unexpected earnestness. five tends to have these moments when he isn't being a complete idiot, and it always manages to surprise her. before she could say something and protest about it five began to speak.
"i'm sorry for not returning after minutes when i promise i will."
"i'm sorry for leaving you behind after you saved me from the explosion, i was wasted and kind of devastated."
"i'm sorry that i made you cry every single night."
"and i'm sorry i for making you feel upset now that i'm here. will you forgive me?"
"well, you did say it nicely so..." she grumbled, trying to suppress the tingling sensation in her cheeks. "...okay."
"really?" five asked as he gently pulled y/n closer by her wrist, which was still trapped by his slim fingers. "just...just don't do it again.
she took her time analyzing his features, the moles present in his cheeks as her gaze was involuntarily drawn to his tiny and exquisite lips, which curved into an innocent grin with his dimples. she was so preoccupied with her own rushing thoughts that she overlooked the decreasing of what little gap remained between the both of them.
the lips y/n was thinking about suddenly crashed against her. a sensation similar to an electric charge shot up her spine, her heart hammering so loudly in her ears that she was concerned even five might hear.
with his free hand, he traced the slope of her jaw, feeling the soft but firm touch of his fingers, yet ever so gently, the gesture making y/n shudder. his lips were softer than she had imagined, and his touch was delicate but—
realizing what the fuck is happening, y/n pulled away following with five releasing her wrist. unable to find words or think what the heck is she feeling, "oh..uhm, sorry, i think i need some sand— er...air..."
'there's no way he kissed me, right? it's just an accident, right?'
y/n was too embarrassed to even look at him or wait for whatever he may say and made her way out of his room and bumped into luther near the hallways as she muttered a sorry and made her way to her room. while five watched her as she left, resting a finger on his lower lip feeling stung of hers to his. sucking his lip in with a deep red hue painted his face as he looked at delores.
"ah, shit. why did i do that?"
[ LETTER #10, day 20 | you know... thinking about it when i write you letters like this, i feel like you wouldn't read it and tease me for it. haha, this reminds me of when you first talked to me. so this was the "one-sided conversation" you are talking about, huh? well, i hope we're looking at the same full moon today, five. sincerely, y/n. ]
