Danganronpa Oneshots (Requests Open!)

Makoto Naegi x Reader

Non-despair AU

-----

     Your friendship with Naegi started the first day of school. You were both in the same class, but had never knew each other. The Ultimate Napper, not something you're proud of. You got into Hope's Peak Academy because of how often you slept, while Naegi got in for luck, which you didn't have. That first day, you got caught sleeping in class, bumped into three students while moving through classes, but one of those people was Naegi.

     "I'm sorry..." You mumbled.

     "No, I should be the one apologizing!" He insisted. "I'm Naegi Makoto."

     "(L/n) (Y/n), sorry again..." You said in a whisper, nearly falling asleep.

     You shifted your feet. Naegi helped you find your classes, which with his luck, was easy. That started your friendship.

     A month into the school year, and you were already best friends. He helped you with homework as best as he could, and you helped him by buying him food. He was a poor student, and you felt bad. Somehow you both got along fairly well. 

     "Naegi, do you need me to buy you lunch again?" You asked.

     "Uh, Yeah..." He scratched the back of his head, his ahoge bobbing up and down as he nodded.

     You walked into the lunch room and bought some bread for you, and a sandwich for your best friend. You walked over to the table he sat at with his friends, including you. You took a seat next to him and handed him his sandwich, which he took gratefully.

     "Sorry for buying me lunch all the time, (Y/n)." Naegi said. You ended up calling him by his last name and him your first.

     "As always, you're lucky I have extra money from doing chores." You replied.

     You ate your bread slowly and conversed with Maizono, who nodded with a smile. Leon gave a wide grin and talked to you as well. 

     "(L/n)!" Leon called.

     You opened your eyes. "What is it..." 

     "Stop sleeping and get off Naegi-Kun's shoulder!" Leon yelled.

     You looked off to your side and saw Naegi, a blushing mess as he stammered out a few incoherent words.

     "Sorry, Makoto." You decided if he called you by your first name, you should do the same.

     "U-um, apology accepted?" 

     Two months after the incident, you noticed Naegi get flustered a lot more, and he flinched at everything. You didn't understand why, but when Naegi came over to your house to do homework, whenever he complimented on how well you did something, your cheeks got warm. You heard your lower class man, Shirogane say how she shipped you two.

     "Hey Naegi, you owe me dinner now." 

     "W-Why?"

     "I've been paying your lunch fee, now you have to pay me back."

     "Like a... date?"

     You flushed red. "Well, if you want it to be... Anyways, I wanna go eat."

     "Where do you wanna go?" 

     "Well, I'll let you choose. You have to pay anyway."

     "Right. So meet me at eight and we'll go eat."

     "R-Right."

     You waved goodbye and went home, closing the door. Your parents weren't home, as usual. They worked the night shift. You went into your room and put on something presentable. You brushed your hair, still beet red. You had the courage to ask him on a date, as your best friend dubbed it.

     At eight, you went outside and Naegi was waiting by the door, looking just as awkward as you were. You walked beside him and let him lead you to the restaurant. It wasn't too fancy, but it wasn't expensive. Smooth move, Makoto. 

     "So, um. Let's eat." Naegi said as he played with his fingers.

     "Yeah, let's go."

     Both of you walked in, repeatedly being mistaken as a couple. It was awkward, but you had fun. When you walked out, you smiled at him and walked towards the park.

     "So, Makoto. You're lucky that place wasn't expensive, as expected of the Ultimate Luckster."

     "Y-Yeah, anyways, I want to give you flowers. If you don't mind, of course." Naegi replied and handed them to you.

     "You got lucky again, these are my favorite, but I'm sleepy." You chuckled with a yawn.

     "Yeah, so maybe I'll get lucky if I ask you out."
