Advice 🖤

(Requested by Kaguno286)

Concept: Jirou really likes Kaminari but doesn't have the guts to tell him. One day, Kaminari comes to her for advice because he wants to ask out someone else. Jirou is initially hurt by this, but she wants to help her friend and see him happy, so she agrees to help Kaminari.

(Jirou's POV)

Every day, it's the same thing, and every day, I feel guilty about it.

Kaminari is a nice guy. He's funny and easy to talk to. I think he's cute. Good-looking.

But I can't tell him that.

I can't tell him that I'm constantly sneaking glances at him during class. It doesn't help that we sit next to each other. He distracts me during class, and he doesn't even know it. When we're hanging out with our friends, I always look towards him when we laugh. When we go places on the bus or the train, I always hope he chooses to sit next to me. I like being around him. 

I think I have feelings for him.

But I don't know if he feels the same way. Kaminari's the kind of guy who's genuinely nice to everyone, so I can't tell if he's just being nice or if I'm actually special to him.

These are some things I've noticed:

He gave me a nickname. He calls me "Jirou-Jack" once in a while. He didn't give a nickname to anyone else. Well, he calls Bakugo "Kacchan" sometimes, but Kami didn't come up with that name.

He started calling himself the "stungun hero" after I called him a human stungun during the attack on USJ.

He wanted to keep learning the guitar after the school festival, so he asks me for lessons sometimes. He's the only one in the band that does that.

He asks to study with me sometimes, even though I'm not the smartest in the class. Sure, I get good test scores, but there are plenty of other smart people he could ask for help.

That's pretty much it. Maybe I'm reading too much into things. Maybe he's just a nice guy, and I've confused his niceness for some kind of flirty hints.

If I tell him how I feel, and he doesn't feel the same way, then what? Things are going to be awkward. I don't want it to be that way.

Maybe it's best if I just keep my mouth shut.

Knock knock

"Hey, Jirou. You got a minute?"

Kaminari knocked on my open door, peeking his head inside.

"Oh, sure." I say, "What's up? You want another guitar lesson?"

"N-Not exactly." He stutters, shutting the door.

He looked nervous.

"Is everything okay?" I ask.

"Yeah, yeah. I just need...some advice."

He plops down on my bed with a sigh. I take a seat next to him.

"Jirou, if you were gonna ask someone on a date, how would you do it?"

When he said the word "date," my heart immediately started racing.

"Uh...I don't know. I guess it depends. Why?"

He chuckles, "I really want to ask this guy out, but I have no idea what I'm doing. I like him a lot, though."

Him. Kaminari likes guys, too? I mean, I guess I could see it, but he never really said it straight out like that.

"Well, what does he like?" I ask.
