note: this gets angsty
Who...well, actually, I know who's item this is.. You examine the pachinko ticket slightly, flipping it loosely between your fingers.
"Oh-ho! You got mine!!" Osomatsu gets up with a grin, his index finger rubs up under his nose. You roll your eyes with a smile of your own, then head into the closet with Osomatsu following behind. Once you're both in, he closes the door.
You take a couple of steps away from him, putting some distance between the both of you.
You and Osomatsu have been friends for...forever! Well, not really, high school was a fair bit ago though. You didn't think much of him when you two initially met. But as time progressed, you had developed a crush on him. For a few years, you'd drop hints, (subtle ones but they were there), trying to tell him that you had feelings for him. But he'd seemed to only take it as you being super friendly, or seemingly not notice at all. As of recent, your crush on him dissipated, and now see him as one of your friends.
"Hey [Y/n]?" Oso calls out to you, making you turn towards him.
"Yeah?"
"Remember high school?"
You nod, then ask, "Yeah, why?"
He leans his back against the door, his arms loosely crossed. "I'm not that oblivious, you know?"
What...? You thought, confused.
There's a moment of silence, with you mainly trying to figure out what exactly he was talking about.
"Do you really not know?" He asks, a bit disappointed.
"I could infer something, but no..I'm not really sure."
"Take a guess." He grins to himself, knowing you can't see it.
There's another moment of silence. You've thought that it could be that you liked Osomatsu, but you didn't want to admit that.
"...Is it about us?" You ask cautiously.
"Yeah." He simply replies.
Does he want me to confess or something...?
Not knowing why, you reluctantly inhale before asking, "Is it about me...having feelings for you?"
"Bingo!" He chuckles softly.
"What of it? It's not like you noticed or anything." You replied sourly.
Osomatsu chuckles again, a bit louder though. This confuses you, until you realized exactly why he was laughing.
"You knew?"
"Bingo! Again."
"And you didn't say anything because? What? You didn't know how to let me down easy?"
Osomatsu instantly stops laughing, now dead quiet. It creeped you out a bit, honestly.
"That's not it at all. I..." He stops himself, trying to collect and straighten out his thoughts. "I didn't know how to respond to it...? I felt the same way towards you and didn't know how to deal with it.. That's why I didn't say anything after all this time."
You have your arms crossed, trying to process what he just said. "Why now? Of all times? We're in a closet for crying out loud."
"Because it's more private? I don't know." He replies, a bit sheepishly.
You sigh, shaking your head a bit. "Didn't think to consider my feelings, huh?"
Osomatsu squints, now he's confused, "What? No I-"
"Don't you dare try lying lying to me." You spat, no longer feeling up for this game. "I mean, your little confession just now could've been a lie too!" You throw your hands up, exasperated.
" 'Didn't know how to deal with it' my ass. For years I've been giving you hints, and this is the best excuse you could come up with? But you know what you could've done? You could have came to me, Osomatsu. You know, do that thing called talking." Throughout this, you make gestures, angrily.
Osomatsu's pissed now, too, don't worry.
"I'm not an idiot, [Y/n]. I know what talking is. It doesn't come easy for me."
You scoff, your arms back to being crossed.
"...You really don't believe me, do you?" He asks, losing all hope he once had. The tension however, was increasing between the two of you.
"No, I don't. Liars can't exactly be trusted."
That was it. He couldn't stand another second with you. Osomatsu opens the door, seeing Todomatsu stand in front of him.
"Oso-" Totty gets cut off, Osomatsu pushing past him. Oso's eyes were already stinging, tears close to making an appearance. He turns back to look at you once your out the closet.
"This is what I was worried about, but far worse. Didn't know you could be such a bitch." Before you could respond, he storms out the room, feeling heartbroken.
He didn't know that the one person he cared the most about would end up hurting him this much.
