Summer Break - Kamishin\Shinkami

2. Stupid?

The next morning, Denki awoke at around 10 am. He crawled out of his sleeping bag, and took the charger out of his mouth. He looked over and saw Shinso with his face stuffed in his pillow, still asleep.

He's so cute, i just wanna squeeze him. I don't even wanna wake him up, but we have plans today..

Denki tapped him repeatedly. "Toshi. Toshi wake uppp" he whined.

He tapped him again, but this time sent a small jolt of electricity through his finger, just enough to wake him up.

Shinso yelped, and sat straight up.

"Denki wh- what the heck!?" Shinso yelled.

"Sorry! Sorry.. You wouldn't wake up," Denki apologised.

Shinso got out of bed, Denki's blanket draped over his shoulders. "It's fine, you just scared me."

Denki smiled. "Guess we're even then!" He called after Shinso, who was walking to the bathroom.

"And- hey don't take my blanket in there!" Denki scrambled after him.

"I'm just brushing my teeth. Besides, it's comfy. Smells like you." He said the last part quietly.

"I heard that" Denki said with a smirk.

"No you didn't," Shinso protested.

"Yes I did"

"I just said you smell weird." Shinso said flatly.

"Then why do you insist on keeping that blanket? Man, that's kinda gay" Denki said half-Jokingly while smirking.

Shinso suddenly got very defensive and serious.

"I'm not gay. I don't care if you are but don't lump me in with you." Shinso said, his voice sounded cold.

Denki looked down. "Okay, sorry." His voice cracked as he apologised. He felt stupid for saying that.

"Hey, hey I'm sorry don't be sad, I didn't mean for it to sound insulting," Shinso said to Denki, who was standing outside the open bathroom door with his head hung low.

Shinso stepped away from the sink and walked towards Denki. He pulled him into a hug. Denki didn't hug back, he just stood there. Shinso started running his fingers through His blonde hair, occasionally twirling it with his fingers.

"I think that came out wrong.. Uh, I just meant I'm not gay." Shinso said quietly.

"That's the problem.." The shorter boy mumbled, barely audible since his face was buried in Shinso' s chest.

Denki had liked Shinso for a long time. Part of him knew it would never happen, but the other part of him still wanted to believe it would.

"What'd you say?" Shinso asked, letting go of him slightly.

The blonde boy peered up at him, and forced a smile. "Nothing. Hey, we're supposed to hang out with our friends today, we should get ready"

Shinso nodded and let go. The two went off to get ready; Denki arranged to meet Sero, Mina, Jiro, Kirishima, and Bakugo, and Shinso invited Monoma. Shinso came out of the bathroom after a few minutes.

"I have no idea what to wea-" Shinso looked forwards saw Denki, still changing.

"Oh shit-" He immediately turned his head away. "Uh.. So this is gonna sound weird. I don't have any shirts I wanna wear, can I borrow one of yours?"

Denki took off his rainbow hoodie and tossed it to him, after doing so he covered his chest awkwardly.

Shinso caught it and raised an eyebrow. "It's a fucking rainbow"
