Tatara totsuka x OC

Feelings

- 1 week later-

It's been a week and a day since the man Homra identified as the new colorless king tried to kill Tatara and shot me. Homra has already begun the search to find him. Over the week, Tatara and I hung out regularly. We often went to different candy stores or ice cream shops or sometimes to his apartment to watch movies.

  I got ready around eight since I didn't have work. I picked out a red crop top that reached just above my light wash boyfriends jeans. My long silver hair was braided again. I brought a small backpack with my wallet.  I headed over to Homra. Despite only knowing them for a week, they treated me like family. I looked forward to meeting them everyday. Even Mikoto seemed to enjoy my company.  

I arrived pretty fast since it was only about a five minute walk from my house.  Pushing the door open hearing the bell ring, I saw four people,  Anna, Kusanagi, Mikoto, and Tatara. Tatara smiled, "Koharu, you came."

"Yeah" I said giving him a small smile.

I followed him to the couch, dropping my bag, lying my head on his lap. His hands massaged my head as I closed my eyes.

I stayed there for a few minutes before someone tugged on my hand. I sat up seeing Anna.

"Hey, whats up" I said softly.

"Can you take me shopping." she asked quietly.

I smiled widely, "Of course."

"Hey are you ditching me" Tatara said in a teasing voice.

I laughed a bit before Anna looked at him saying, "You stay here." It probably sounded harsher than she meant it to be but Tatara looked taken back by it. I laughed once more before standing up picking up my bag. We walked out towards the mall.

After reaching there, we stopped at a few shops mostly selling kawaii clothing. Anna picked a red lolita dress with cherries out, some shoes, and some tights. Of course Anna didn't know how much they were when she picked them up. Turns out the dress was from a designer brand but it looked so cute on her so I bought it for her anyways. The cashier seemed surprised that an 18 year old had so much money but accepted it anyways.

After finishing shopping, we stopped at the food court getting some food.

"I'm sorry if I made you spend a lot." she said.

"No it's fine, I have a lot of money from my dad" i smiled at her.

She gave me a smile then looked me in the eyes. "I haven't said anything before but you have a very pretty red." she paused.

I looked back at her without saying anything.

She smiled again, "But with Tatara, it's as bright as Mikoto's.", "You two make a beautiful red."

I blushed. "What do you mean."

"Why wont you join us?" She questioned.

"Umm I don't know" I lied. Deep down I knew the answer. I was afraid. Afraid that they wouldn't accept me. That Tatara wouldn't return my feelings. That I would be left alone again.

I was so in thought that I didn't notice Anna looking through her marble.

She lowered the red ball then looked me in the eyes. "Don't be afraid."

My eyes widened. "We are nothing like your family, Koharu." she said grabbing my hands.

"Y-You saw everything" she nodded.

"And as for Tatara, he is waiting for you to confess." She said with a small smile.

If it was anyone else who just did what she did, I would be angry. But It was hard to be mad at Anna especially after what she just said. 

"Will you join?" Anna asked.

Hesitating I said, "If you guys will accept me"

She nodded. "I'll tell Mikoto."

We finished are food and made our way back in the direction of the bar. On the way back, I noticed one of the ice cream shops that Tatara and I went to. We stopped in and I got Anna some ice cream before heading back to the bar.

Upon entering, I saw Tatara curled up on the couch taking his afternoon nap, Kusanagi polishing his glasses, and Mikoto sleeping on the other couch. I smiled as Anna let go of my hand curling up beside Mikoto. He opened one eye then put his arm around her.

Kusanagi gave me a small smile as I walked towards the bar taking a seat on a stool.

"Hi" I said.

"Hey Koharu, how was your day with our princess?" he asked placing his glass down.

I hesitated questioning whether I should repeat what she asked me before saying, "She wants me to join."

He then smiled and looked at me, "And what is your response to that?"

"Well", I paused, "I said if you guys will accept me then yes."

"Of course we will" another voice shouted. I looked over to see Tatara sitting up still wrapped in his blanket a wide smile on his face. 

I turned back to a smiling Kusanagi, "It will be great to have you."

I then jumped off the stool walking towards Tatara. I sat down next to him wrapping my arms around him.

"I'm sorry I couldn't help myself, you look like a burrito." I said laughing a bit.

"Huh that's not fair, your always picking on me." He said teasingly before returning my embrace.

"Hey Tatara" I said checking the time on my phone which read 7:00.

He looked down at me, "Yes?"

"Let's get ice cream tonight."

"Alright let me get ready." He said standing up leaving me on the warm couch.

I grinned, "Okay."

"O and Koharu." he said. "Its my treat." He walked out of the room before I could argue.

After a few minutes Tatara came out with unusually casual attire. He had a purple loose v neck sweater and jeans. He also had a necklace reaching to the center of his chest. 

"I'm ready." he said smiling.

I smiled as him and I walked out of the bar towards the nearest ice cream shop.

Time skip:

After getting ice cream Tatara had insisted on walking me all the way to my apartment. After getting home I hugged him goodbye and entered my apartment. I decided to take a shower.

Stepping into the shower I started to think about Tatara already excited to see him again when I realized, 'I really do like him.'

'I thought he was just a little crush'

I thought about what Anna said to me. 'He's waiting for me to confess.'

I stepped out of the shower wrapping a towel around myself looking into the mirror.

'What does he see in me'
