"If I Could Tell Her" - Ben Platt and Laura Dreyfuss

Tsurugi was considered to be a blank slate without a feelings, since he was C3's Ace. He believed them, for a long time he thought that it all was true. Then, lo and behold, a whirl wind with (H/C) hair walked into his life.

You were nice to him, you didn't look at him with disgust or call him trash. He liked that about you. In fact, he tolerated you, he felt comfortable around you. He didn't know why, but he felt like you held a special place in his heart.

But, unfortunately, those feelings weren't returned. Tsurugi wasn't in that 'special place' in your heart, that seat was reserved for someone Tsurugi loathed with every fiber of his being: Mikuni Alicein. You were beside yourself when he left, since you two were friends. Tsurugi hadn't seen him in awhile, but he could tell he cared about you just as much you cared about him.

"Do you think he likes me?" You ask Tsurugi.

"Uh, well..." Tsurugi began, not knowing what to say. "Maybe? I'm not Kuni, so I wouldn't know. If you like him so much, why don't you just tell him?"

"I can't," You told him. "He's... Way out of my league. And besides, I don't think he likes me that way."

"No, not at all," Tsurugi informed. "He used to talk about you a lot, (Y/N). In a good way."

"Really?" You asked.

"Yeah."

"What did he say?" You inquired, Tsurugi paused for a moment. Mikuni did talk about you, but it would rarely come up in a conversation. Tsurugi didn't care enough to listen to him, so instead of repeating what Mikuni said, he decided to say the things he liked about you.

"Um..." He pondered. "Where should I start?"

Well, he said

There's nothing like your smile

Sort of subtle and perfect and real

He said

You never knew how wonderful

That smile could make someone feel

You were amazed at how much Mikuni liked about you, you never thought he would notice such little things. You never could tell what Mikuni was thinking, maybe he did think all of this. You listened intently to the dark-haired man telling the thoughts of your close friend. The close friend that noticed things about you like you did about him.

And he knew

Whenever you get bored

You scribble stars on the cuffs of your jeans

And he noticed

That you still fill out the quizzes

That they put in those teen magazines

"He really thought of me that way?" You asked, Tsurugi nodded.

"Yeah, he thinks very highly of you," He told. "He thinks you're one of the best people he's ever met, and that you're pretty." Your face turns red, you were called into the other room by another member, you gave Tsurugi a short 'bye' and scurried out of the room. He thought you were cute, how you get embarrassed easily, how you smile through dreadful times, and that smile never ceases to be contagious.
