Ship: One-sided Skepnoblade
Prompt:
Zak confesses his love to Dave but the other doesn't return his feelings. The two stay as best friends and Dave questions Zaks motives.
Skeppy(Zak), and Technoblade(Dave), we're sat on the stairs together eating their lunch. Zak had a delicious ham and cheese sandwich in his hand and crumbs around his cheeks whereas Dave simply nibbled on a chicken sandwich.
"So that's why all that happened?" Zak questioned curiously as he rubbed the crumbs off his face onto the sleeve, despite knowing the answer, "Because you spiked the punch?"
"Yep! I'd like to say that means I win by four points by the way," Dave grinned before his smile faltered slightly and he observed Zak's facial features and expressions.
"Hey um... Zak?"
"Yeah?"
"I was wondering... I mean as an English Major I constantly overthink things and all but um, ever since I got a girlfriend, you seem a lot happier, you know? Considering that you also like me though I figured you'd be hurting, right?" Dave spoke, looking away from the other not wanting to see the other in any sort of pain, emotional or not. "So why? Why do you still smile and stuff? Why when you know I don't love you back do you still hang around me and love me?"
He finally turned to the other, his eyes widened as he leaned back slightly from his seat on the stairs.
Zak was smiling, from ear to ear, his eyes filled with admiration, inspiration yet held so much suffering and hurt, like his conflicting emotions were colliding and forcing him to choose his next words carefully. Tears pouring from the orbs of hazelnut and chocolate as he smiled bigger and wider at the older.
"Well, Techno... Even if I have to watch you kiss another person or love someone that's not me and sure, I'll never be able to be held like you like they get to but, in the end... In the end, loving you makes life worth it. Seeing you happy and admiring that from afar makes me content with what I got. I've never had a lot, even growing up as a kid my parents were never to close to me so really... you're all I have. That makes loving you worth it."
Authors Note:
Sorry it's short but I forgot to mention that you can request anything you want as long as it doesn't contain smut!
