Shots (Noriaki Kakyoin)

After school, you and your friend, Kakyoin, always head to a store to buy some snacks, then to the park to do your homework. Today, you had to break the little tradition.

"Hey, Kakyoin." You called out as you paid for your food.

"Hm?"

"I was wondering if you could go to the doctor with me." You blushed as you realized how dumb it probably sounded to him.

You exited the store, waiting for his answer.

"I don't mind." He smiled. "May I know why?"

"Well, um..." You trailed off, wondering if you should reveal your secret.

'This is Noriaki. He won't judge you. And if he does, you can call him a cherry freak.'

Satisfied with your reasoning, you continued.

"I'm supposed to be getting shots, but I'm scared of needles."

"I never knew you were afraid of needles."

"Nobody knows, so I'd really appreciate it if you kept this between us." You replied.

He peered into your adorably begging eyes and couldn't help but feel giddy.

"My lips are sealed." He giggled.

You latched onto his waist for a brief moment of gratitude.

"Thank you so much." You exhaled in relief.

"So when is this appointment?" He asked.

"In about half an hour." You grinned.

"We should get going then." He started with a quick pace.

After you checked in at the office, you waited anxiously for your name to be called out by a nurse. After ten minutes, a nurse led the both of you to a room. You sat down on the raised cot and Kakyoin took a seat at the corner of the room.

"Please, wait here. Two nurses will arrive in a moment." She instructed politely.

"Two nurses?" Kakyoin repeated.

"I'm getting four shots, Kak." You whimpered. "Two at a time."

He stared at you in awe as you started to shiver slightly and break into a sweat. He had never seen you look so feeble.

"Last year, my stand threw the doctor across the room when he tried to give me a shot. I couldn't control it; I was scared." You admitted shakily. "That's why I need you, Kakyoin."

Before he could say anything, the two nurses entered with the supplies. Your eyes widened at the syringes. They didn't waste anytime with cleaning your arms with alcohol.

Kakyoin got up from his seat and stood in front of you, grabbing hold of your hands.

"It'll be fine." He smiled and gave your fingers a gentle squeeze.

"Oh, is this your boyfriend? How sweet." One nurse commented, making him blush.

"Ready?" The other nurse chimed in as they both held their needles close to your arms.

"Just take a breath." Kakyoin whispered. "And look into my eyes."

You did as he told. You winced when the first two needles pierced your skin. You snatched Kakyoin's hands into yours and gripped them until your knuckles turned white. Tears sprang into your eyes and your whole face grew warm. You could see Hierophant Green's arms holding your stand by the wrists, despite all of its thrashing. A squeak erupted from your throat when the second round of injections came. The nurse to your right missed the second time, so she had to puncture your arm a third time. Kakyoin sent her a brief glare. You and your stand relaxed once the nurses started putting little bandages on your arms.

"See? That wasn't so bad." Your friend smiled down at you.

"My ass." You blunted, jumping off the patient's cot.

"Well, I think you did a good job." He thumbed up as you headed for the front desk again.

"See you next year." The receptionist waved you goodbye.

"Hey, Kak." You started after you left the building. "When those nurses asked if you were my boyfriend, why didn't you say anything?"

"Maybe because I didn't want to lie." He shrugged. "And maybe because I also wished it was true."

"Quit playing." You laughed.

"I'm not." He chuckled.

You looked up at him doubtfully. He returned the gaze with a loving stare.

"I really want to be there for you next time you have to face your fear of needles. And the year after, and the year after that, and so on." He said before leaning down to kiss your forehead.

You reached out to him for a hug and buried your face in his chest to hide your smile.

"So is that a yes?" Kakyoin asked.

"Yes." Your voiced muffled out.

You finally pulled away to let him place his arm over you shoulders as you continued on your way home.
