Kai's POV lol

"What am I supposed to say? I'm nervous." Y/n asked with a cute little laugh as she handed me her phone. I read the text on the screen from Damiar and just stared at it. Im gonna admit, I was kind of jealous. I didn't want her to leave me for Damiar or something.

I was also a little angry because at the diner at lunch, he was flirting with her almost the whole time. And he knows I like her. I told him that, that one time when Y/n asked me out and I dumbly declined.

"I don't know. Do you want to?"

"Well weren't we gonna stream tonight?" Y/n asked and I nodded. She shrugged, "I'll just tell him we can hang out tomorrow."

I nodded and gave her her phone back and pulled out mine. I texted Damiar quickly before he could answer Y/n.

Hey Dami. Can we talk?

Yeah sure, what's up?

Why are you flirting with Y/n? You know I like her.

Sorry man. I'm not trying to flirt I just think she's cool.

I'm not dumb Damiar. I know what flirting is and those things you said at lunch to her were definitely it.

You're not even dating. I respect you like her and all but she can decide whether she likes you or not

What kind of friend flirts with their friend's crush?

I'm sorry Kai you're right. That was an asshole move. I'll stop, okay? Please don't stay mad at me forever.

I won't. Thanks bro

I looked over at Y/n who looked a little upset. He probably cancelled on her. Maybe I overreacted. Am I terrible friend?

"What's wrong, Y/n?"

"Damiar cancelled on me but it's good. I have school and work tomorrow anyway so whatever," She shrugged and put her phone away. We just kind of sat there and looked at everything around us. The birds, the pink flowers growing on some of the trees...

I laid my head on Y/n's shoulder hesitantly, hoping it wouldn't make her uncomfortable. Thankfully it didn't, and she rested her head atop of mine and played with my hair.

"Um..Kai," she started and I began holding my breath even though I didn't mean to.

"Why did you start crying at the café? It's been kind of nagging at me for a while 'cause...I dunno I just hope it wasn't my fault." She said quietly. My heart was beating faster and I didn't know what to say.

And then I remembered something. And I decided it would be a good way to tell her why I cried...which would lead to confessing my feelings to her. That's scary as hell, but I have to try. There's no reason not to at this point.

I took in a deep breath and pulled away from her. I looked at her with the most serious expression possible. Also trying to hide the anxiety plastered all over my face.

"Y/n," I began shakily and she looked a little scared of what I was going to say. "Um, I heard what you said to me earlier. I was like half asleep, and I heard that and I just panicked and pretended I was sleeping."

She looked at me, frightened and with glossy eyes. I placed my hand on hers comfortingly.

"Y-You don't feel the same way?" She asked and I could tell she was about to break down and I couldn't take it anymore. I hated seeing her like this. I have to tell her.

I tried to open my mouth to say it but nothing came out. Just a tiny little faint squeak. Oh god now what??

She scrunched up her nose and looked down and I could see one tear slip down her cheek. Oh no, oh god no, I have to do something. I'll just, I don't know, kiss her or something.

I placed my hand on her cheek and pulled her face to look at mine. I flashed a little worried expression before pulling her closer. I did it, I kissed her. And she kissed back.

Her lips tasted like the strawberry lipgloss she 'borrowed' from me forever ago. This kiss was different from the other one. It was real, it was passionate. I pulled away before it made her uncomfortable or anything.

"So is that a no?" She asked, beaming up at me with a bright smile on her face.

I nodded and let out a laugh, "Of course it is. I really like you, n/n, like  a lot. I don't know why when you first asked me out I said no. I guess I panicked as usual. And also, that was what I was going to tell you earlier but I got too scared and chickened out. Then what you said to me described how I was feeling perfectly and I knew I had to tell you, but again, I panicked and chickened out."

She started laughing at how much I chickened out. "It's not funny! Feelings are hard" I joked and she agreed.

When she finally quit laughing and looked at me, I brushed away the wetness on her cheek from a few minutes ago.

"Kai, will you, uh...go out with me or something?" She mumbled and I smiled so big, I swear I looked crazy. "Yeah, I'll go out with you or something" I replied which made her smile back at me with an equally big smile. She placed a kiss on my cheek which made me blush massively.
