Makoto x Reader

You smiled as you clung onto Makoto's arm as he tried to eat lunch. You weren't his girlfriend, but you really liked him and tried everything to get him to notice you and return the love. He tensed up and sighed, obviously frustrated. You felt the anger radiate from him and slowly retracted yourself from his arm.

"Mako-chan?"

"Why do you keep clinging onto me like this?! I barely even know you! Stop acting like you're my girlfriend", he yelled loudly. He glared at you with such hatred. You flinched at his sudden outburst and froze. You hug your head low in embarrassment. The entire cafeteria's attention was now on you and Makoto.

"I was just kind of hoping that you'd, y'know...fall in love with me...", you murmured.

You looked back up, "...I shouldn't have gotten my hopes so high...", you wiped the single tear that slid down your face and gave him a fake smile. 

"I apologize for being such a burden...", you apologized and bowed before speed walking out the cafeteria with everyone staring at you. Makoto felt sorry, his heart stung from the guilt.

Makoto noticed everyone's eyes on him and brought his food up to the rooftop. When he got there, he noticed a familiar figure sitting on the railing of the roof.

"Hey!", he placed his food down hastily after realizing that the figure was you. He helped you off the railing and tried to look at your face, but you kept hiding it by looking down and your hair.

He eventually gave up and placed his hands on your shoulders, shaking you out of your daze a bit. 

"What were you thinking? You were going to jump! Over me! What's wrong with you?!", he held you close, but not close enough to be considered a hug. 

You shrugged off his hands and turned the opposite direction, "Why are you here?", you dull voice made him flinch. You were usually so happy and lively.

"I...-"

"Just leave me alone, Tachibana-san...you already made yourself clear back in the cafeteria..."

You began to walk away, then stopped after a few steps, "Oh, and by the way...I wasn't going to jump"

Makoto stood there, trying to process what just happen and your sudden personality change. He watched the back of your head as you continued to walk away, getting further and further from his reach.

He felt his heart crumble. And that's when he finally realized...

 He really did love you. He just noticed a bit too late.
