Shinsou is nervous. There's no denying it. You've had three great dates, a lot of banter before that and he's still quietly shaking from kissing you on your doorstep a few nights earlier. But now you've turned radio silent. No texts. No calls. No pictures or silly captions posted on any site you use.

Did you ghost him? Would you do that? You're part of a bigger friend group, you've been friends before you decided to take a step further, but what else could this be?

He caves three miserable days later and calls Tsuyu, because he knows she won't make fun of him but will tell him to his face if she thinks he's a creep.

"Nohr is sick," Tsuyu says quietly. "I've been at her place every day to make sure she's eating and drinking and to feed her cat."

"What can I do?" He asks, trying to swallow the lump in his throat. He's been wallowing in self-doubt while you're suffering! That's not Boyfriend material! That's not even friend material!

"You can cook, right?" Tsuyu asks and explains what he already knows. The foods you prefer when the pain hits. Where you hide your spare key. What to look out for when caring for your cat.

By the time he arrives at your apartment, he feels like he's back in high school, his biggest exam right in front of him. If he fails today, he can kiss this relationship goodbye, right? He'd always tried to be caring and understanding when you were friends, but now that he wants to be more to you, he has to show that he can be more to you.

You're asleep when he comes in and when he leaves. He's not sure if you even understood that it was him moving around you instead of Tsuyu, but the weight of your body, as he held you upright while you ate, has told him something, a secret he had already known but forgotten:

It's not the big things that make a relationship, it's all the little things instead. It doesn't mean he stops planning date number four, but it means he's more than ready to be back at your apartment tomorrow, to clean out your cat's litter box and shake up your pillows.

He loves you. What else would he do?
