Things have been awkward between you and your roommate when you found out he was that Kurta from back then. You weren't sure if you should tell him that you knew. Or wait for him to trust you enough to tell you, and tell him then. The fact that he was here and alive made you a bit uneasy. Because you thought he was dead, a long with all the other Kurtas. You naturally had a lot of questions, like: 'How did you survive? Are there other survivors out there? Are you the only one to survive? Was it hard to see your clan members were killed? Were you even there when it happened? Has it been hard these past few years? How'd you end here?' But you decided against asking. You felt like it wouldn't be a good idea. So you decided to wait until you know what to do.
Valentine's Day was just around the corner. But it didn't really affected you. To you, Valentine's Day was just a normal day. A day you're always spent by yourself anyway. Although, you did wanted to do something nice for Kurapika. So you decided to go grocery shopping early, so you could get the stuff needed to make valentine's chocolate.
"Hey (F/n), how have you been?" Said (bff2) as she saw you leaving the super market.
"Fine, I guess." You lied.
"Let me help you carry your shopping bag." She gestured.
"I-It's alright, I can carry them myself." You didn't want (bff2) to help you because you were worried she would find the chocolate ingredients.
"I insist." (bff2) grabs half of your grocery bags and you both started walking towards your apartment.ᅠI'm happy that it's only (bff2). If (bff1) was here, she knew that I lied and that I've not been fine. She has know me the longest. You thought. "So Valentine's Day is two days away. Do you have a special someone in mind?" She said with a huge grin on her face.
What?! N-No I don't... What made you think that anyway?" Your face turned bright red.
"Then what are these?" She held up the bag that held all the chocolate ingredients.
"I... uh... Th-There for friendship chocolates. FRIENDSHIP chocolates and nothing more!" You grab the bag away from (bff2).
"Oh! Then I look forward to it." She said with a grin. Great, now I have to make some for her too. Soon, both made it to your apartment. When you both walked in, the room was completely quite, no one was home. "Seems like that roommate of yours is not here."
"Yeah, he said he had somethings to do at his job."
"Oh, so... what does he do for a living?" She asked curiously.
"He's a bodyguard for the Nostrade family."
"No way, Nostrade?!" She said surprised.
"Yep."
"Wow... that's amazing!"
"Mmmhmm." You nod you head.
"And what about you? What have you been doing?"
"I'm still living on my saving." You laughed.
(bff2) sweat dropped. "Seriously? You need to get a job."
"I'll get a job when I want to get a job."ᅠIt's not like I'm gonna go broke anytime soon. "You gonna go, I have chocolates I needed to make." You push (bff2) out the door.
You were happy that Kurapika wasn't home. You were able to make the chocolate by yourself. You really didn't want him around will you were making HIS chocolate. Right when you finished wrapping the chocolate, the Kurta in question walked in. "So what you doing over there?" He asked.
"Nothing...?"
"Making valentines for your friends?"
"Maybe~" He ruffled your (h/l) (h/c) hair.
"How cute." He said with a smile. You groaned and went back the work. Tomorrow is gonna be a long day.
Valentine's Day hit (s/n) High School like a storm. You were constantly seeing balloon bouquets with giant teddy bears and the smell of roses and chocolate was everywhere. But all you did was just sit there and groan at all the girls getting gifts. Sure you prefer being alone, but you still wanted someone to hold you on the most romantic day of the year.
When the bell rang for first hour, you sat down and stared at the blond wondering.ᅠWhen should I give him the chocolates, now? Lat- You were broken away from your thoughts, when the announcements went off. "Good morning (s/n)! I have one amazing announcement from everyone." What the? What's going on? "To celebrate Valentine's Day... We'll be having to dance instead of classes! So everyone come on down to the gym now!" Everyone cheered and ran out the door as fast as they could.
"I can't believe it, a Valentine's Day dance!" Neon said excitedly as she ran towards us. "I wonder of any guys will get me anything."
"Neon... I'm positive that you'll get a lot stuff for countless guys." You said sheepishly.
"You really think so?"
"I knew so, anyone with eyes can see that your pretty. I wish I was as pretty you..." You said with a sad smile.
Neon was about to say something, but she was interrupted by Kurapika saying "(F/n), you're not pretty... you're beautiful. Not just that, you're also smart and very helpful." You face flushed a little.
Right when the three of you walked into the gym. Neon is attacked by a big group on boys. Each boy had something they wanted to give to her: Flowers, chocolates, balloons, stuffed animals, valentines day cards, you name it. You had to push and shave with all your might to get out of that mob. Right when you found a seat, you looked over to the crowd of boys and saw that Kurapika had made them all clam down. Good thing you have him for a bodyguard, Neon. If you didn't, you probably would have been eaten alive.
The school day was coming close to an end and you were still sitting at the corner of the gym, reading a book. That's when it came to you. You still haven't given Kurapika the chocolate. You look to see that he was still he was watching Neon. I'll give them to him on the bus ride home. Suddenly, a slow dance started and you felt a light tap on your shoulder. "Would you like to dance?" Asked a voice. You looked up from book and saw that the voice belonged to none other than Kurapika.
You were completely shocked at his formality. "Me? Y-You're asking me to dance?"
"Of course I am. So..." He held out his hand wanting from you to take it.
"Yes, yes I would love to dance." You both walked to the dance floor. You were very nervous, and you kept on looking at your feet.
"Is something wrong?"
"I'm not at much of a dancer." He only smiled as he lifted you up to place your feet on top of his. He brings you in closer.
"Is that better?"
"Y-Yeah." You both stayed like that for a while until you thought, Guest this is the perfect time to give them to him. You lifted up your head and said "I have something for you."
"Really, what is it?"? You reached into your bag and handed him the chocolate.
"I just made them to be nice. So... Don't think about it too much." Your face was bright red and he just stared at the chocolate for a moment.
"Thank you, in fact... I got you something too."
You were surprised to hear that. He got me something? "Really?!"
He nodded as he handed you a box wrapped in pink wrapping paper with red hearts all over it. "Open it." You opened the gift and inside was a pink heart-shaped glow pillow.
"W-Why'd you... get me this?"
"Because you've been nice and helpful to me since day one. I wanted to give you this to say thank you. Do you like it?"
"Yes, I really do... So... Did you really meant the stuff you said that hallway?"
"Yes, every word. So... Well you be my Valentine?"
"Of course..." You continued dancing the rest of the dance. I've decided, to tell him when he tells me.
