his special someone.
asahi nakiri x fem.reader
alternate title: a love letter to a lost soul.
a.n.- i'm well aware that i'm writing for a character the vast majority of the food wars fandom hates, and all i can say is i don't really care. you don't need to read this story if you hate this character, but please do not send me any hate for liking asahi nakiri despite it all, thank you.
extra notes: this story is based on asahi from the manga ending, and it's very self indulgent ♡
asahi never believed he could ever find a place where he could truly call home.
all he had ever known was the harsh reality his mother had given him, filling his soul with a darkness that couldn't be erased regardless of the many times he tried to forget.
looking back on it now, he felt shameful for not missing her even with her passing-
but in a way, he should be thankful, right?
because if it wasn't for the tragedy that befell of him, then he never would have met joichirou saiba.
he saw the man as his sole father-figure and spent most of his life chasing after him. it was childish of him, boasting about his cross knives ability as he took on the BLUE competition-
and suffered a great loss to soma yukihara.
he was told that his dishes, while euphoric in taste and execution, lacked the essence of asahi himself, whereas soma's dishes was filled with his own passion and love.
all asahi ever wanted was to feel like he belonged; that he too could make someone he loved happy with his cooking.
and at some point, he believed erina was the key to his happiness due to the anonymity surrounding his past. and in a way, he was half right. but instead of being her groom, his true identity was revealed to be as her older half brother.
despite all the trouble he put her through, erina still forgave him, giving him a place to call home while allowing him to wear the nakiri name with pride.
he had grown so much these past eight years, and was living a content life.
but that all changed the moment he met you.
he recalls that memory fondly. it was raining that afternoon, and he was stuck waiting at the train station due to the several delays. as he turned his gaze down at his watch to look at the time, he felt another presence standing beside him.
he looks over to see you, a young woman drenched from head to toe thanks to the downpour. you were shivering, and it was clear that you had forgotten your umbrella as evident from how soaked you were from the rain. you cling to your bag and held it close to your chest, murmuring about how you hoped your notes weren't too ruined.
asahi clears his throat, shrugging off the outer layer of his suit before placing it over your shoulders. you gasp and look up at him, giving him a view of your features as he felt his lips turn up slightly in a tiny smile.
she's cute. something about you seemed achingly soft to him, and he felt this strange desire to protect you. coming closer to you, he holds his umbrella over you all while chuckling, "hello, my name is asahi nakiri and i don't want you to feel alarmed. this may not help with much, but i feel bad seeing you so cold."
you shakily thank him all while introducing your own name to him, making asahi chuckle when he asks, "did you forget your umbrella?"
he watches as you nod, feeling shy when he notices that you didn't meet his gaze. "yeah, i had classes and a lab today, so i was out later than usual. the morning fooled me with the sun and mild weather."
he was suddenly aware of the station making an announcement, hearing his destination being called when he takes a hold of your hand. "come with me."
"huh? b-but i live in the opposite direction."
"it's okay, come with me, unless you want to get sick?"
this seems to wake you up when you shake your head, following him with your arms linked around his. you apologize several times for getting his suit wet, but he simply waves off your concern.
asahi couldn't explain it, but being so close to you made something melt inside of him, causing him to feel a warmth coursing through him-
like sunshine reaching all the way to his extremities.
and he refused to let this feeling go, refused to let you go.
the ride spent on the train was filled with an awkward silence. asahi insisted on standing in front of you, protecting you from the crowd of the train and their lingering gaze on your soaked form. keeping his hand against the train's window, he presses his body in front of yours, shielding you from the crowd as he whispers against your damp hair, "relax, i'll keep you safe."
luckily, the ride didn't last long, and you arrived at his stop within 15 minutes. he continues to hold the umbrella over you, not caring that half of his body was getting wet in the process as he lead you back to his apartment.
by the time you reach his apartment, you were shivering, teeth clattering as your wet clothes clung to your body. asahi quickly gave you several plush towels and urges you into his bathroom, promising to hand you some of his clothes to wear and to focus on warming up with a hot bath.
you follow his commands all while thanking him before locking yourself in. when asahi hears the faucet run, his mind began to race when he rummages through his closet for something you can wear, settling on one of his t-shirts and a pair of shorts.
folding his clothes in front of the bathroom for you, his next mission was now to cook the perfect meal for you to help with warming you up.
he didn't want to overwhelm you with a hot pot, so maybe he could make some ramen?
immediately, his mind thought up of the perfect ingredients as he worked on putting together the perfect bowl of ramen for you.
the broth was carefully simmered as he cut thin slices of pork, adding together a variety of spices while chopping up some scallions. the noodles were boiled to perfection as he worked on assembling the perfect bowl for you.
the soft sounds of footsteps catches his attention as asahi looks back to greet you-
only to have his words caught in his throat upon seeing your gentle beauty.
something about you made his heart clench painfully, and he couldn't deny how shy he felt seeing you in his clothes. you looked so soft, so inviting to him that he began to tremble.
he was becoming so flustered, yet you didn't seem to notice as a dreamy expression paints your features. "what smells so good?"
ah, the ramen.
asahi clears his throat and beckons you over to the kitchen counter where his ramen for you was settled. he went into great detail describing it, using words you didn't quite understand but appreciated nonetheless.
"thank you for this meal." you softly whisper before taking the first bite with your chopsticks.
the taste was overwhelming to you, sending you straight to heaven as the melody of flavors danced within your mouth. in just one bite alone, you felt the prior coldness of your body melt away. you felt so warm, so loved that tears began streaming from your eyes.
"it's good, it's really good." even with the tears streaming down your face, you continue slurping up the ramen noodles, earning a gentle smile from asahi himself.
he leans across the table, admiring your cute face and the way you cried over his ramen. he reaches out a hand to you to wipe away at your tears, "it's so good that it makes you cry?"
"mhmm, i can taste the love you put into this ramen. it feels like home, nakiri."
what your cooking lack is the very essence that makes up who you are. all i feel is an emptiness beneath the carefully made layers of your dish.
what you're searching for, you'll get even without worrying about it.
asahi was dumbfounded, attempting to hide his blush from beneath his hands as he watches you with awe. here you were, someone who was nothing short of a complete stranger to him, actively enjoying something he made. your blissful expression was beautiful to him, and he found himself wanting to elicit even more responses from you with his cooking alone.
his heart suddenly froze as realization hit him.
he had finally found someone he wanted to cook for; someone he wanted to dedicate the entirety of his life's dishes to-
and the fact made him smile.
that was how your first meeting went, with you showing him your clean bowl and thanking him for the delicious meal. he asked you out then, not wanting to lose you for even a second-
now, three years later, you were still together, going strong as asahi kept spoiling you with his cooking. he found it endearing how you got so mad at him, telling him "i'm gonna start gaining so much weight at the rate that you're feeding me, asahi!"
and each time you told him your concerns, he would simply kiss away your fears and reassure you that you would always be beautiful to him regardless of your size.
after all, you were his heart and soul. asahi would be nothing without you-
and he was ready to finally admit just how much you meant to him.
he watches you while you slept, completely unaware of the plans he had for you when morning came. in fact, it made him so nervous that he truly couldn't sleep at all.
for hidden deep within the confines of his drawers was a tiny velvet box and a gorgeous ring he had picked specifically for you, his queen.
with a whisper of your name, asahi pulls you to him, pressing a kiss against your forehead as he silently vowed to give you all of his forevers-
that all you had to do was say yes, and he'll make you the happiest woman alive.
final note: i love him i love him i love him i love him !!!!
