Fighting Against Despair | Juzo Sakakura X Shy!Reader

Photographs

(A few weeks later)

We sat in the classroom, just kind of chilling. I was feeding Momo some wet dog food.

I glanced over at Juzo, who was talking with Kyosuke. I sighed. I know that some people may see him as a jerk, but I feel like he has a sweet side, and he's just a jerk on the outside.

"So, (Y/N)!" Chisa smiled.

"Yes?" I looked at her.

"Do you like--" no don't do it "Kyosuke?"

I giggled. "No. Why, do you know someone who does?"

"I like him very much." Chisa chuckled. "I just don't know how exactly to convey my feelings."

"How about a photograph?" I smiled.

A lightbulb went off inside her head. "YES! That's perfect!"

She ran over to Juzo and Kyosuke. They nodded and I guess that meant they were ready.

"I'll take the picture." I said and held up a camera.

"Let's take it in front of the school!" Chisa said and practically dragged everyone outside.

"Alright, say--"

"Wait, (Y/N)." Juzo spoke. "You won't be in the picture."

I looks down and smiled sadly. "It's fine. I never really liked pictures anyway." I looked up. "You all wouldn't be able to remember me with a picture anyway.

"(Y/N)..." Kyosuke stared. Juzo looked away.

"Hey, Debbie Downer. Don't talk bad about yourself." Chisa stared at me.

"...just say cheese." I said and took the picture.

Juzo came up and grabbed the camera and placed a hand on my shoulder. "Listen, (Y/N), your a valuable friend to us all." He stared into my blue orbs, staring into the deep ocean's abyss that is my soul.

I blushed when I realized...

I had a crush on Juzo. I legit, has the first crush in my whole life.

On the Super High School Level Boxer. Oh joy.

What do I do? Holy cow.

"T-Thank you." I looked down.

"Eh? You sick or something? Your face is red." Juzo stared.

"Um... It's nothing." I handed him the camera and picked up Momo, head facing the ground. "I'll go sleep."

"Hmm~?" Chisa stared at me with a smug look. She knows.

I squealed and began to run off but I could hear in the background.

"So, Juzo, do you have a crush on anyone?"

I dove into my dorm room and shut my door and locked it.

I did NOT plan on leaving anytime soon.

Momo whined at me, as I practically paced around my room while knawing at my thumb nail. I looked outside to see that Chisa was talking away while Juzo and Kyosuke followed her.

"AH! MOMO WHAT DO I DO!" I yelled. If these dorm rooms weren't soundproof, I'm sure I would have alerted security. "I'm such a dweeb... A useless dweeb..." I sighed.
