There was an awkward and uncomfortable atmosphere in Saitama's apartment. (F/N) had nowhere to stay, since their apartment was destroyed after that fiasco with the Demon level monster yesterday, and Genos (after being repaired) offered for them to stay a while in his teacher's apartment.
Of course, he did it without seeking the permission of said teacher.
So, when (F/N) came by for the first time in Saitama's apartment, said baldy was chilling on the couch in nothing but a pair of boxer briefs.
If that isn't awkward, then I honestly don't know what is.
Anyway, at the present time, Saitama was the first to break the silence. "Um.. You two know each other or something?"
(F/N) nodded, "We used to live in the same city.."
"Until that cyborg ruined it all." Genos continued.
Saitama sighed, "Judging from your behaviors, were you two a thing back then? 'Cuz it seems like it."
Genos' eyes widened while (F/N)'s face turned red, "N-No, Saitama-san. We were just friends.." (F/N) said, twiddling their fingers together.
"Really? I always thought we were more than that, though." Genos replied, scratching his cheek.
"Well whatever. Just... don't do anything lovey dovey here, okay? I don't wanna do some extra cleaning or anything." The bald man yawned, stood up, and went off to take a nap.
Once again, there was an awkward silence between (F/N) and the blonde cyborg.

"I seriously thought that way about us, you know." Genos crossed his arms, thinking intently, "Are you sure we weren't in a relationship?"
"I'm sure of that, Genos!" (F/N) said, "Sure, we were close friends, but that doesn't mean we're in a relationship or anything..."
"What are you getting so defensive about, (F/N)? If we weren't in a relationship before, how about we do it now?"
"H-HUH?" (F/N) exclaimed, mouth agape, "What do you mean "how about we do it now" ?!?"
Genos put his hands on (F/N)'s shoulders, staring into their eyes with a serious face, "I meant what I said, (F/N)... Or in other words, I'm asking to be in a romantic relationship with you. I've known since 2nd year middle school that I was attracted to you.... In love with you. Sure, I've spent years searching for the cyborg that ruined our lives, but I've also spent years searching for you. I needed to know if you were safe, or even alive for that matter. So please.. You don't have to say yes right away or say yes at all to my question. All I ask is that, even if you don't return my feelings, we can still stay friends."
"G-Genos.... I-"
"OH MY FUCKING GOD WHAT THE FUCK DID I JUST SAY?!?!? NO LOVEY DOVEY BUSINESS IN MY APARTMENT ROOM, FOR FUCK'S SAKE" Saitama twitched furiously "GENOS, CAN'T YOU MANAGE A SHORTER CONFESSION OR SOMETHING?!? LIKE, IN 10 WORDS OR LESS!"
Genos nodded and faced (F/N) again.
"(F/N), I love you. Will you be my significant other?"
