Take my hand (Okuyasu x Reader ) Book 1

Sunset surprise

Wondering only briefly what could be causing these feelings before shoving them to the back of her mind, simply enjoying the company of the boy beside her, telling jokes and stories, worming his way further into her heart.

As they went down the way, (Y/N) grew more comfortable once again, she still worried he would leave her again, but for now she was willing to brave that pain, pushing it aside instead for the warmth he brought her. They had turned the block and already the brightly colored building stood out, posters of new games on the outside to lure teens in. (Y/N) had never been to one, she wasn't allowed the time to. As they enter the glass door, they are basted by cold air and assaulted by the various loud noises, some from the consoles and the some from players, talking excitedly or yelling at a particularly hard level they faced. (Y/N) had never seen so many people her age in one space before, her eyes sparkled with curiousity yet hardens as she grips Okuyasu's hand a little tighter on instinct, Okuyasu looks down at her confused, chuckling lightly when he relized what was going on.

"Oi, (Y/N)..." He begins, face heating up as soon as she turns to him, her eyes sparkle nervously from an almost frightening scowel. Already her adorableness makes his heart squeeze, he rubs the back of his head nervously as he thinks of how to word his next sentence. "I-if your nervous, don't worry...you can stick by me a-and I'll make sure no one bothers you...O-okay?"

He looks to her out of the corner of his eyes, her scowel has gone away, a softer more surprised expression taking its place, she looks forward again, a small, almost undetectable smile graces her features. Okuyasu looks forward again, worried she may get upset, heart dropping at the idea of hurting her again.

"Thank you." (Y/N) whispers, sounding relaxed, almost heavenly to Okuyasu's ears, the words surprising him. He looks down at her now lightly smiling face, finding it to be his favorite of the ones he's seen.

'i-i want to protect her smile...is this what love is big bro?' Okuyasu thinks to himself, admiring her silently as they walk over to the token exchanger.

Pulling out 1115 yen (about $10 in u.s. dollars, I googled it) Okuyasu inserts it into the machine, it responds by spitting out a handful of tokens to use, splitting them up between the two. They begin looking around, spotting an available game. They both make their way to it, (Y/N) stops by it, peering at the strange thing in front of her. She picks up the plastic pistol and turns it over in her hands.

"Is this some sort of training simulation?" She asks, her eyes trained on the controller, checking the sight.

"I don't think so, I think it's just a zombie killing game, wanna play?" He asks moving forward and grabbing the blue pistol.

'i can show off to her, most girls like it when a boy beats the high score on these things. I'll beat her at this game and she'll smile hopefully.' Okuyasu thinks to himself , forgetting her knowlage of guns as she nods with a small smile, inserting the coins required for one game.

"I can go easy on you if you want" Okuyasu says with a laugh, (Y/N)'s smile grows at the noise.

"Give me all you got Oku." She says, turning to the screen, pistol at the ready. "Winner chooses the next game."

Nodding, Okuyasu quickly inserts the coins and they press the start. For a few seconds, all is silent and the screen is black. (Y/N) looks over at him, catching him in his act of staring at her, their eyes meet briefly before they both look away, their faces dusting red. The screen lights up, returning the teens' attentions to it.

The countdown started and they raised their guns, Okuyasu holding it in with one hand on the bottom, much like what you would see in movies and (Y/N) resting the arm holding her gun on the other one, creating a box shape with her arms, a strange form but it gave her a fierce look nonetheless. Soon the game began and zombies began coming after them left and right, at first it was easy, but as the rounds went on, they became stronger and Okuyasu began to struggle until at long last his character died. He turns to (Y/N) expecting her to have already lost long ago, what he sees astonishes him.  Her eyes are fixated in a strong look, shooting zombies left and right, her fierce beauty leaving him breathless, her getting head shots every time, her attention is diverted briefly, looking over at him from the corner of her eye, her aim faltering, character dieing soon after. The screen goes to a screen and (Y/N) looks at it in confusion.
