We all know Kayanowanted to say something more on Valentine's Day but she ultimately didn't. What if things were... different?

Kayano's Perspective

"... Of course he's out of range. Why would he leave himself open like that if he wasn't?" The boy in front of me said after giving up a shot at Korosensei.

Nagisa gave that look he always gives in a time of focus.

Oh, that look. I love when he stares dead ahead like that. He's so intense.This is why I like him like I do. He has the kindest soul with the embodiment of an assassin.But what do I say to that face? What if I interrupt his focus with my affections? Should I just thank him or-Nagisa turned to me with a smile, interrupting my thought process.

"You were saying, Kayano?" he asked.

Time froze before my own eyes. It felt like him and I in the middle of space, together and alone, even though I still knew Karma and Nakamura were watching.

Ok, you got this Akari, you can do this.

I held out the chocolates to him.

"I-I've come to thank you for everytime you were there for me, even when I almost killed some of us for revenge on Korosensei. You lift me up when I down and when I am too far up in the sky, you bring me back down to Earth, to reality. Not only that but to confess. I have feelings for you that I realized when you were there to put a stop to my biggest mistake yet. You were there for me, again. I thought it was all on my own, my own plan, but the person finally here, thanking and confessing to you, is me. I like you, Nagisa, I really do."

Nagisa stood there, not making an expression. I knew that he was deep in thought.

I handed him the chocolates and turned away from him.

"You don't have to accept my feelings, nor answer to them. I'm only interrupting your focus anyway," I said, slightly sad.

I took only two steps before:

"Wait!" I heard him say, as Nagisa grabbed my hand.

I turned around to face him.

"Kayano, you've done so much for me, so you shouldn't be the one thanking the other. You helped me from the start, and I only started recently. I finally came out of my shell after you've been being there when I was as silent as ever. I was alone in the beginning, but here you came. I don't care if it was part of a devised plan to push yourself aside and help me get out there. You were still there and I like that about you. I like you when you are you, because I know Akari Yukimura and Kaede Kayano are the same person. Kayano, I feel the same way as you, I like you," He confessed, with a small smile on his face.

I felt as if I was going to cry of happiness. He hugged me as I shook in emotion. I was over the moon but as anxious as if a real assassin had his/her scope aimed at my head.

"Nagisa, thanks again."

"No, Kayano. Thank you."
