♠︎ Be There - Naib x Reader

"That's hilarious Martha." You could hear a few feminine voices echo from a certain girls room. The Coordinator. "I mean, don't get me wrong he's really cool, and just my type, but..." You nervously placed your ear closer to the door. "Naib just ain't for me. Not only does my heart still belong to him, but this Mercenary is always so grumpy and judgy. It really ticks me off." You heard her sigh.

Naib? You thought for a second. She was right, he was really fit and was everybody's knight in shining armor when it came to rescuing. Though he was always isolated, and quick to judge other people. "Well, just tell him then Martha. Get him off of you already, then you can finally be at ease." You were so focused on the gossip you didn't notice the figure lingering behind you til they walked past quickly. You jumped, but didn't make a sound as to not alert the girls in Martha's room.

It was Naib. You quickly understood he heard all of which you heard and you sped after him. You reached out for his arm and grabbed it so he could stop. You were going to try and make him feel better. Hearing some you like talk of rejecting you can be heartbreaking.

Though when his eyes turned to you, your confidence disappeared. "I- uhm-!" He looked at you annoyed, but something else finally took over his features for the long time you knew him. Sadness. "Naib-!" What do you say to someone who got rejected without even being really rejected. You didn't know, so you did something else.

You slid your hand into his and took him downstairs. "What are you doing?" He asked. He actually didn't sound like he was annoyed, which was a first. It was more of a dull monotone feeling he gave off. "I'm gonna make you something." You glanced back at him, only to find his eyes in dismay. You never seen him look so confused before, but you couldn't stare long as you looked to where you were stepping, and also felt a light heat on your face.

You arrived in the kitchen. It was late so no one was really up. You grabbed him and set him on a chair. "What are craving?" He looked at you confused, then with a serious expression, answered. "Yo-." "Food wise!" You shouted softly, slightly annoyed. He knew you were easily bashful, from past experiences. Wether it was talking about romance, or movie night had a scene that was quite heated, he found out, and would always tease you that way.

He chuckled and said, "I'm not really hungry." ,resting his chin onto his hand. How could he be, even you would loose your appetite. You turned and walked to the fridge, pulling out certain things like doe, and cinnamon. "I'm making you cinnamon rolls." He didn't reply or anything, just sat there. You started making them, turning on the stove and everything else. He watched you, every move and gesture as there was nothing else to do.

You waited a while before they were actually finished baking. You pulled them out of the oven and started to spread icing on them. It was good to put it on immediately, as it would be able to melt into the rolls and be tastier. You grabbed a clean towel and picked it up from underneath, though you accidentally burned the tip of your finger a bit. It hurt only for a second so you didn't react much, and placed the snack on the table. "Eat." You said. He gave you a quick scowl. "I told you I'm not hungry." He turned away from you so you sat down in the chair next to him.

"Eat." You said again, but this time was more pushy and dark coming from you. He growled but turned back to pick one up. Once he took a bite, you smiled to his expression of shock and satisfaction. You also took one and enjoyed your cooking. But you felt the sting on your finger come in and out that you occasionally had to stop eating to stick it into your mouth.

You went to get milk for the both of you, and when you came back with it, Naib grabbed it from your hand quickly to chug it down. You sat in shock but you were also quite thirsty from all the sweetness and fluffy bread. Naib put down his cup which you took to put in the sink. It was quiet and nice at the same time, you almost forgot about the reason you were both here in the first place.
