"I'll admit... I was nervous about coming here. I wasn't so sure I wanted to come but... I'm happy I decided to, as well." You smiled at him, feeling warm despite the cold snow that fell on top of both of you.
"Nervous?" he blinked, confused as to why you would be feeling that way. In all the time he had known you, you weren't exactly the type to feel anxious often. "Because of Atobe-san?"
"Uhhh, yeah... sure, let's go with that," you muttered, looking away from him. You couldn't exactly tell him that the reason you had been feeling so nervous was because of him. He'd probably get the wrong idea and it sure as hell wouldn't be easy to explain.
"Ah, I see. I'm glad that it didn't stop you," he spoke softly, staring at the snow-covered ground.

"Can you go and get the crackers out of the drawer in my bedroom, please?" you questioned, looking over your shoulder.
"Yeah, sure. Which drawer, senpai?"
"Should be the top,"
"Alright," he nodded, pushing away from the counter and taking off down the hall. You smiled, happy to be alone with the younger male. You weren't entirely sure why, but just being around him made you feel really happy... happier than you've ever in a long time.
'Jeez, I'm acting like a school kid with a crush', you paused before facepalming. 'Oh wait... I am a school kid with a crush... damn it',
