Your grip tightened on the present, palms clammy as you took a quick glance around the classroom. It was silent, considering that it was still early in the morning - too early in fact. Noctis had yet to arrive, his messages signaling that he was a few minutes away. You took more deep breaths, the previous ones unable to calm you down. It would take more than a few breaths in the past ten minutes to make you feel confident. Although Noctis is your friend, this could make or break your relationship.

"I hope this goes well," you muttered to yourself. The words heavy on your conscience.

You slapped your cheeks, feeling the sting and decided to practice. "Alright. Happy-"

The door opened, revealing the raven head - he was panting, his arm leaned against the door to catch his breath. "Sorry I'm late (Y/N)!"

He walked closer to you, his figure significantly bigger than yours while your heart went into overdrive. "So, what's up?"

His smile was bright, while your confidence wavered.

Should you break this friendship? Should you take a leap?

Your eyes instinctively closed, simply forcing the gift into his chest. "Happy Valentine's Day, I like you very much and it's okay even if you don't return my feelings we can still be friends."

You shoved the words out of your mouth, only to feel it hang in the air. Instantly, you felt yourself panic. Did he hear me? Was I talking to fast? Is he thinking of a polite way to reject me? Your mind spun around all the possible outcomes, which made you fail to notice the small smile on his lips. You kept your eyes on the floor, feeling too afraid and embarrassed to lock eyes with him.

"(Y/N)," he called your name once, softly. You refused to look up, hoping he would just talk to your hair.

"(Y/N)!" this time he called you with a louder voice, desperate to make you look at him. However, you stubbornly kept your gaze to the floor. You felt that one look and you could burst into tears.

You heard him sigh, your hands gripping onto air as you realised he accepted the present. Before you could back away, he placed a hand on your chin, pushing your face up to meet his eyes. You were about to close it, only to feel a soft sensation on your lips. Your eyes shot open at the touch, his hand wrapping around your waist and pulling you closer. Noctis saw your eyes flutter close as you leaned into the kiss, his unique smell of soda with a tinge of lemon filling your nose. It was brief, you pulling away slightly, his eyes locked on yours. 

"What a coincidence, I love you too." His head dipped and found its way on your lips again. Your lips pressed together perfectly, immediately your new addiction. "Also, I have a present prepared for you too," He said hazily between kisses.

You chuckled at his words, realising both of you kept these important feelings hidden. Your hand wrapped around his body, taking in his scent and never wishing to let go.
