"I think I'm gay." I say, leaving out the part about my... exposing dream about him last night. I watched his expression, waiting for some sign that he was angry. I waited for him to call me a faggot, to curse me off and tell me he never wanted to see me again. Instead, I was greeted with his perfect toothy smile. "That's great man, I'm of proud you." He says, patting my arm as he stuffed another cracker in his mouth. "It takes some real balls to come out to someone." He says, his beautiful green eyes blazing into mine. I felt myself become flustered at his gaze. "Uh, Yeah, Thanks." I stumbled out, "You're not mad?" I ask. His expression turns to hurt as he crinkles his eyebrows. "Why the hell would I be mad?" He asks, hesitating on the crackers and pushing them away. "I just thought-it's just- well... you just always seem so pissed when someone mentions the word gay." I spit out words, scared for his reaction. He sighs, "That doesn't fucking mean I hate gays. Normally when I do that it's because someone's using the word 'gay' to hate on them, it just pisses me off, you know?" He asks, bringing the crackers back into his lap and biting into them. "Plus-" He adds on, "You're my best friend, if anything, you being gay is a blessing. I'll always support you." He says, glancing at me through the side of his eyes. I look away, towards the door to hide the crimson blush that I feel spread over my face. "Thanks." I all but squeak out. And that's the day I realized, I have a faint crush on my best friend. <><><><><< THIS BOOK IS BEING *MAJORLY* EDITED.

(PG-13, Modern Quirkless College AU) - "Hmm.." "For fucks sake, dumbass! Order!" Shouto could practically see the spiky-blonde-haired barista fuming. He should have been offended, he knew that. But instead he just laughed, apologized, and ordered a pumpkin spice latte. "Well shit, I thought you were gonna be cool, and then you go and order that BS. I should've expected that shit from you and your stupid man-bun." He groaned. "What size of that pansy drink do you want?" "Grandé." "Mhm. Name?" "Shouto." "And how do you spell that?" Shouto blinked a couple times, his brow furrowing. The barista looked up at him, eyebrow raised. "Do you not know how to spell your own damn name?" "I..- No, no I just.." He frowned. "No one has ever asked that. Don't you guys have some sort of a name game?.. See who can screw up the most?" The barista rolled his eyes, his body almost seeming to follow suit. "I don't play those stupid-ass games. It's a waste of the customers time, as well as mine. Now tell me how to spell your name- if you remember it, that is." He glanced behind Shouto, smirked slightly, then looked back. "Better hurry up. The extras behind you look like they're about to murder you." Shouto didn't even bother looking back, knowing full well how other students could get. "Sorry. S-h-o-u-t-o." "Sho..uto. Got it. Go," He waved vaguely in the direction of the end of the counter. "Wait over there." Then called 'next customer' as he handed the cup off to a girl, and he started taking other people's orders.
