Scares (Uraraka Ochaco)

Uraraka Ochaco:

The woman behind the counter handed you the popcorn as well as the too large to be small-sized drinks. You grabbed the popcorn as your companion grabbed the drinks, the both of you awkwardly shuffling towards the theatre.

You coughed awkwardly as your tickets were checked, following the bubbly brunette as she made her ways towards the numbered theatre you both would be in. Your eyes met hers for a moment, only to suddenly break from her and then look at the ground.

She did the same, a blush trying to fight through her features, but she quickly put a stop to this. She had been pink enough tonight... and more so than her usually naturally flushed cheeks.

You sucked in a breath and then quickly looked back towards the brown-haired female who was next to you. She was smiling happily, though kept her distance from you. The night thus far had been full of this, you being a nervous wreck and her trying to look like she had it together... but well... every time you got a bit too close, Uraraka would explode into a display of hot pinks on her face.

And thus, as the both of you made your ways towards the set of seats you had chosen for yourselves in front of the screen. You sat down with a relieved sigh, Uraraka luckily sitting right next to you.

It was silent between the both of you, neither of you knowing what to say or how to even interaction at this moment. It was strange... the both of you usually meshed so well when you were around more people.

But now here on your first date together, you seemed to forget how to talk to another girl. Or even how to talk to the girl you had been so excited to be given the chance to go see a movie with.

And thus, the both of you sat in silence as the previews played and more people flowed in. Only ever exchanging quick and embarrassed glances at the other before hiding your faces and rose dusted cheeks from the other.

Soon enough the lights dimmed and the trailers began to play. You could feel the pit in your stomach grow as you remembered the movie the both of you decided to see. Some cheap horror movie. And while you were never afraid of them... you'd admit that loud noises did always make you jump.

Thus, you were going to try your best to not look like such a scaredy cat in front of your date. After all... how embarrassing would it be for you to suddenly throw all the popcorn into the if in the film there was a loud scare and you freaked out a bit too much?

And so, you were determined to keep your cool in front of Uraraka... however... as it turned out, this was a much harder thing to do then you had assumed. So when the first jump scare occurred you couldn't help but grab onto her. Immediately you pulled away, embarrassed that a typical bad scare had gotten you. However, before you could pull your hand all the way away, it was pulled back.

You glanced at Uraraka with wide eyes, seeing as she was sheepishly rubbing her hair with her free hand. You couldn't help but smile at her cute little-embarrassed face. Finally she spoke towards you, squeezing your hand a few times as she did so.

"H-how about we hold hands, (Name)-chan? That way neither of us will be too freaked out by this movie cause of the scary parts, okay?"

She blushed deeply, thinking how stupid that sounded. However, her mind cleared when you squeezed her hand back, a smile on your face as you nodded to her. Uraraka's lips curling into a small smile.

"That sounds fine to me, Uraraka-chan."

The both of you clasped hands as the rest of the movie played out, and even as the credits played, you remained hand in hand. Your smile never fading and your eyes seeming to be comfortable at long last with the other.

And from how nice it felt to have Uraraka's hand in yours... you hoped you wouldn't have to let it go anytime soon.
