My Hero Academia Imagines

Flustered (Kirishima Eijirou)

Kirishima Eijirou:

"D-do you want to get some ice cream?" Kirishima asked, his fingers tapping out of a nervous habit.

The check had been paid for and the dinner was finished, meaning it was about time for the two of you to either head back to your apartment or stop somewhere for dessert before he bid you goodbye for the night.

You nodded sweetly, the blush from the start of the night still on your features. It had not ceased and you admittedly were still a bit flustered to actually be on a date with the cute hero who had been frequenting the bookstore you worked out.

Your manager had teased you that he only came in for you, and that didn't help you in the attempts to actually talk to him. But somehow your slightly shy and awkward nature had seemed rather endearing and adorable to him, and thus he asked you out on a date.

And now here you were, both of you adjusting your outwear as you walked out of the restaurant and towards a small ice cream shop that was down the street. You unknowingly shivered, the motion picked up by the man next to you.

"Here." He shrugged his jacket off and handed it to you. "I'm not an expert, but this is how all the movies do it... right?"

He was just as awkward but sweet it appeared. Kirishima had long noticed you in the shop but only worked up the courage lately to actually go and talk to you. And when he finally did ask you if you'd like to get dinner, he was pushing his confidence and nerves to the max.

"Thanks." Your face colored deeper into a red, but luckily you could hide it away in the jacket on your shoulders. The cold air no longer nipped at you and you admitted to yourself that Kirishima's cologne was very pleasant and not overwhelming.

Kirishima ushered you into the small creamery, holding the door while you walked in. You both placed an order and waited for the lady to ring up your purchases. She displayed the total and Kirishima reached for his wallet.

"I've got this." You smiled and handed the lady your card.

"B-but I'm supposed to pay for the first date!" He spoke, not wanting you to spend your own money on a situation he had proposed on you in the first place.

"Dinner was good and you've been really sweet. So at least let me pay for this." You took your card back and handed him his dessert.

"Ah man..." He chuckled. " Guess this just means I owe you ice cream another time."

"So I guess that means we'll be going on another date then."

You had let it slip from your mouth without realizing it, the response is only natural to what Kirishima had said. But once it was said you could not help but quickly try to cover it up. You didn't want to appear too desperate after all...

"I-I mean if you want to that is! I-If I've totally ruined the night then you in no way have to take me out again or even call me! Heck, you don't even have to buy books from where I work anymore either!"

You mentally scolded yourself, seeing that you had just word spammed him and knew that he must be a bit overwhelmed by how pink his own cheeks were at your latest additions to the conversation.

"O-Oh no! It's fine! I was actually going to ask you for a follow-up date after I dropped you off. B-but if I'm not your type then you don't have to go on another date with me."

You recoiled in shock. Did he want to go out again? With your awkward nerdy butt and terrible taste in jokes? What sort of miracle was occurring at this moment?!

"You want to go on another date?"

"Only if you do!"

"I'd love too!"

"G-great."

You both looked away from the others, absorbed in your ice cream. Though really you were trying to think of what exactly to say next. How does one change the subject from that waterfall of confessions and desires to go out again?

"How about you two focus on finishing your first date." The creamery's cashier chuckled from behind you and as a result, made both you and Kirishima blush darker and laugh more awkwardly than before.
