Stoic

She looked up at Tokiya and gave him a sort of challenging look, which he simply returned and shoved the hat further into her face. She pulled a face at him and lightly placed her hand into the hat taking the first piece of paper that her hand came into contact with. When she unfolded the neatly folded piece of paper she was confused when she saw the word 'Stoic' written over the space of the sheet. Everyone around her seemed to be getting impatient to know who she got and Reiji even went as far as ripping it out of her hand and reading it out loud

"Soo who had the name 'Stoic'?" (y/n)'s eyes had rested on Tokiya's face when the paper had been snatched from her and she saw a look of surprise cover his face at the name Reiji called out. From his reaction, she knew that he was the one that wrote that, but she had a sneaking suspicion that he was going to deny it. She wasn't going to give him that chance.

"It was Tokiya's he just told me" His eyes widened even further as she reached forward and grabbed his wrist, proceeding to then drag him into the dimly lit closet, she even closed the door behind her

"Why did you do that? You didn't know that it was my nickname?" He said heading back to the door, but she blocked the path

"Oh, but wasn't it, when he called it out you seemed to freak out a little, am I really that bad? Do you dislike me that much Tokiya?" She faked a hurt voice and smirked at him. He looked at her for a few seconds then seemed to resign and accept his fate. He moved to the nearest wall and sat down, closing his eyes and breathing deeply. (y/n) mirrored his actions only when she closed her eyes her breath hitched, her brain seemed to be catching up with recent events. She had been having a great night laughing and playing games with some of her closest friends and then one of them suggested the stupidest and most inappropriate game to play at this sort of gathering and she had encouraged it. Then she had been chosen to go first and she drew the nickname of her crush, the man that now sat opposite her, the man that had saved her the first time she heard him sing.

She felt her face and ears go red, unable to contain her joy at her luck she laid down against the wall and buried her face in her hands

"Are you ok (y/n)? " She peeked through her fingers to see he had opened one of his eyes slightly was now looking her over with utmost importance. She couldn't find the words to express her emotions and just nodded at his question. Another few minutes passed in silence and she had come down from her slight high and now she was starting to get very bored, he wasn't talking to her and was making no move to change that. So she decided that she would let her childish impulses take over. She started rolling across the floor, yeah just rolling, she would roll until she felt the brush of Tokiya's foot then she would go back to her side of the closet and repeat. It wasn't long until Tokiya had opened his eyes and watched her go back and forth with an eyebrow raised

"What are you doing (y/n)?" She halted her progress when she hit his feet again and turned over them until she was facing him.

"I. Am. Bored" She was about to continue rolling but a hand on her arm stopped her and pulled her up into a sitting position next to him, she felt her face flare slightly at the contact but she managed to keep it under control "Ok Mr. Stoic, what now, I started doing that because I was bored"

"Then let's talk" He turned his head slightly to face her but made no other move to start a conversation, she rolled her eyes and was about to fall to the floor again when he started talking "I still remember the first song you composed for Shou in the first class project" Her eyes widened at this.

"That was quite a while ago and I mean it wasn't that good" She averted her eyes in slight embarrassment. She knew that Shou also played the viola and after talking to him about it she composed two pieces, one that he could sing and write lyrics to and one that he could play with his viola.

"It wasn't great, but it still wasn't bad, i remember he ended up playing both and even though how you wrote the viola was nice the song you wrote for him was amazing ... when he sang that it wasn't the lyrics that spoke to me it was the music" She smiled slightly, she remembered she spent nights awake at her desk trying her best to string the notes together and make them sound like they fit effortlessly, but in the end there were still parts that sounded clunky

"I'm glad that I managed to do something right while I was in school" She giggled slightly, turning her head to face him, as she turned she realized just how close their faces were, she could feel his breath on her face and his eyes were pouring into hers. She was about to pull her head away from him but he reached out and halted her progress as his fingers grazed her cheek

"But that song is not the reason I love you" It was barely a whisper and if she had still been on the other side of the room she would not have even suspected he said something, but as they were so close the words seemed to surround her completely. She wasn't sure who moved first but next thing she knows was his lips on hers, pure shock stopped her from countering for a few seconds, but as soon as her dulled senses caught on to what was happening she wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him closer. His arms snaked around her waist and rubbed small absentminded circles where they rested. She felt his tongue sneak out of his mouth and tenderly trace itself over her lips. She opened to him almost at once and wasted no more time in devouring her. They pulled apart only when their lungs were screaming in pain at them both, but they did not physically let go of each other, quite the opposite, in fact, Tokiya pulled her into his lap and unleashed an assault on her neck. When she had been reduced to a blushing mess in his arms he slowed down and simply held her close.

"I love you for so many reasons that i lost count" She ran her fingers through his hair and closed her eyes as she listened "But the first feelings of love I can remember is when you first heard me sing outside the classroom" Oh yes she thought to herself that was also when I felt it "It was just after a big assessment and I had been moved out of the S class, you came and heard me singing by the lake, and you, having no idea who Hayato was, complimented me on the song, you told me-"

"It is the perfect song for Ichinose Tokiya to sing" She finished for him, she pulled out of his arms slightly looking into his eyes "And I still think that is true" She bent down and kissed him on the forehead. His eyes widened as he seemed to become aware of their physical positions and a blush spread across his face faster than she had ever seen.

"Sorry, this must be uncomfortable for you" He placed his hand under her arms and lifted her off his lap, placing her by his side again. She smiled and placed her head on his shoulder and intertwined their fingers. It was then that Ren decided he would open the door with a heart jumping BANG. He smirked when he saw the two of them

"Ok lovebirds your time is up" They looked to each other before standing up and leaving the closet hand in hand.

They spent the rest of the night talking to each other about their time in school and how long they had known about their feelings for each other, sometimes sneaking in a kiss every now and then when no one was looking.

(a/n:Omg, i had no idea how hard it would be to write for Tokiya, I mean i love him to tinie tiny pieces and he is the one that I ship with Nanami the most, but it was just so hard coming up with an idea for it and even harder to keep him in character, but I am happy with the final result and I hope that you are too :)

I will see you lovelies in the next chapter!)
