Amajiki and bunny

7 Minutes In Heaven

I looked at Amajiki nervously standing up, he stood up and bit his bottom lip nervously looking toward me.
Nejire and Mirio were giggling with each other loudly... Way to make it obvious guys!
"you can go to bed if you don't want to do it Clara, I wouldn't force you" kimi smiled at me, ugh no way, not now.
I had to be confident and show Amajiki I wasn't an anxious mess.
"I-I" I stuttered trying hard to speak.
"no, it's fine, we can do this then go to bed right?" Amajiki looked down at me.
I felt as if my entire body and face had turned red, that was so unlike him! I felt my heart beating loudly, I was worried it was so loud people would be able to hear it!
Kimi looked shocked... I looked around at everyone else, they all did, I guess they were all really surprised with amajiki.
"w-where do we have to go then" I asked her finally managing a sentence.
She just pointed to a cramped looking broom cupboard.

We walked in and squished in together while one of the boys from our class closed the door and locked it shut.
The cupboard was so dark and tightly packed, Amajiki was so close to me, i could feel his breathing and all I could hear was how shaky his breaths were too.
"I-I'm glad neither of us are claustrophobic" I tried to joke.
"mhmm" he agreed shuffling a little bit.
I felt like if I adjusted my position I'd end up pressing myself against him but it was so hard to keep my balance against the wall, it was just way too packed in here.
"I-I think 7 minutes will go quick right?" I blushed.
"I think so, at least I'm with y-you " he breathed but then moved quickly brushing against my arm "I - I mean, if it was anyone other than my friends I would be more awkward" he explained.
"m-me too, thanks for doing this" I looked down, we couldn't really see each other anyway, it was far too dark.
Which heightened our other senses, my anxiety was rising, all the thoughts I was having, what ifs running through my mind.

"it's fine, thanks for not acting like you didn't want to" he softly sighed.
"huh? Why would I not want to? Has this happened before or something?" I asked starting to feel bad for him.
"y-yeah, first year here, no one wanted to be paired with me, they made it very clear, I mean why would they want to be" he spoke softly.
I squeezed my fist and took a breath "well... I-I wanted to" I blushed hard, at least it was dark so I didn't have to face his reaction.
I was hiding behind my ears after saying something like that.
He let out a breath and relaxed a little.
I reached my hand forward and felt his shoulder, my hand my shaking from nerves but I rubbed his shoulder softly, I didn't want him feeling bad about himself when I thought he was wonderful.
I felt so scared doing this but he didn't push me away like I expected him to.
"t-thanks" he stuttered.
I moved my hand down quickly brushing it against his chest accidentally.
"s-sorry!" I panicked trying to move but tripping over my own feet, my face pressed against his toned chest as he caught me, holding onto my back gently, his large hands held on tighter as I tried to regain my balance.
I slowly looked up at him and my eyes were starting to adjust a little to the minimal light, I could see him a little when he was this close to me.
My hands were gingerly placed on his chest, my breathing and heartbeat were rapid.
Our eyes met, I could only just about see them glistening, he looked anxious too but he also looked super cute when he pulled that expression.
I could feel his shaky breaths against my ears as he was a quite a bit taller than me.
He let out a sudden laugh "y-you're a little clumsy aren't you" I felt his chest bounce a bit when he laughed, it filled my heart with joy to know that I had made him laugh.
"I-I know, I'm sorry we ended up like this" I tried to hide behind my ears like always but they brushed his face a little as they lowered over my eyes.
"o-oh are you embarrassed?" he asked suddenly realising.
"a little" I scrunched up my face continuing to talk "i- I feel like this isn't too bad though, I was trying so hard not to bump into you or step on your feet but I'm so clumsy... At least now I don't have to worry about that" my heart raced after awkwardly admitting that.
"oh... Me too actually, I-I was trying not to breathe too heavily or touch you accidentally" he replied.
My ears went back up, I felt a lot happier that he felt the same.
"they really had to choose the smallest cupboard in the whole building" I giggled.

I felt so warm inside and happy, I was stood so close to him in a soft embrace.
We stayed liked this talking for a while longer until the door opened "7 minutes is over" Kimi glared as she noticed our position.
Amajiki let me out first and followed.
Kimi walked past me and mumbled "I doubt you did anything anyway, you're too shy".
My ears perked up and i raised an eyebrow "well you'd be wrong" I whispered but loud enough for her to hear.
I breathed in as I walked away, how do people act confident, I felt like passing out just saying something like that to her, ugh my head hurts from the stress.

Me and Amajiki went back to Nejire and Mirio.
"I-I'm going to go to bed then, I'll see you guys tomorrow, t-thank you I had fun" I bowed to everyone.
Nejire stood up and hugged me "goodnight! Text me before you sleep" she whispered.
I smirked and nodded at her, did she actually expect me to do anything with him in there, it's like Kimi said, I'm just too shy.
I went to walk off as Amajiki yawned "I'm going to bed too".
"o-oh OK, maybe we should stop playing soon guys it is getting late" Kimi stepped forward.
"in half hour, please Kimi" everyone else pleaded whilst Mirio was speaking to Amajiki.
"ah! Sure OK! But no longer we all need our beauty sleep" she smiled at the class before walking up to Amajiki, what was she planning on doing?
Mirio backed away back to Nejire.
"goodnight Tamaki" kimi wrapped her arms around him tightly.
My heart pounded against my chest, she called him by his first name!? And hugged him!

I looked away feeling annoyed but Amajiki looked shocked.
I waved to Nejire and slowly started to walk away, I got to the bottom of the stairs when I heard feet tapping behind me.
I turned around to see Amajiki walking to the stairs now too.
"h-hey, I think we did good socialising today" I faked a smile still feeling crappy about Kimi.
"I-I guess" he shrugged as we climbed the stairs together, hm what was wrong with him?.
We reached my room "well... Thanks for helping me out tonight" I blushed, I really wanted to hug him too but I didn't think he'd want to after a pretty girl hugged him, plus he seemed to have had enough social interactions for one day.
And of course I was way to nervous to even attempt it.
"o-oh you're welcome, I don't think I really did anything" he looked down before adjusting my cardigan on my shoulder.
I felt my cheeks burn "you did, you really helped me... And you were more confident! I just need to work on mine now" I smiled up at him.
His cheeks reddened as he looked away "we can continue working on it together i-if you want that is, there's plenty of actual confident people here instead" he adjusted his hair.
"I-I like working on it with you...i feel comfortable around you" I blushed harder opening my door quickly to get away from my cringy talking.
He let out a sigh and looked back at me smiling a little bit "thanks, well goodnight Clara" his eyes locked onto mine before walking away slowly up the stairs.

I sighed happily and shut my door jumping onto my bed thinking about how his body felt pressed to mine in the cupboard.
Oh right! I needed to text Nejire.

Nejire: hey what happened in 7 minutes in heaven ;)
Me: oh not what you're thinking, I tripped and we ended up hugging x
Nejire: well at least it's something! That Kimi seems totally different to how I thought she was, be careful x
Me: yeah I don't think she likes me haha x
Nejire: yeah I'm not too sure either haha, me and Mirio went to bed straight after so you two could walk together x
Me: seriously! Haha well thanks, goodnight x
Nejire: goodnight see you tomorrow x.

I put my phone down and went to sleep eventually after lots of overthinking the same things about being pressed to Amajiki in the cupboard, although I still cringed at my clumsiness.
