Receiving Love Letters From Highschool! Valorant Boys!!
Scenario: Receiving love letters from highschool! Valorant boys for Valentineâs day!!
(Iâm starting to like doing this typa content. Anyways, I know Valentineâs was MONTHS ago but yâknow Iâm just a tad bit late đđĽş)
Characters included: Chamber, Yoru, Pheonix, Sova
Chamber - Vincent Fabron
- Vincent thought long and hard for what he could get you for Valentineâs day, he was more of thinking of what object he could get you if Iâm being honest. âAn expensive purse?â He thought to himself. What could he possibly buy you that he didnât already buy for you. He was in a bit of a scuffle. At one point he wanted to buy you a car but you he then realized neither of you had a driving license.
- And so, for around 30 minutes he thought of what to buy you. But he then remembered the countless times you told him that his expensive gifts (although very much appreciated by you) didnât really matter to you, as long as he thought that you would love it and as long as all he thought about that gift was you and only you. To summarize it: it was the thought that counted the most.
- He took out a piece of paper and started jolting down words, was he writing what he was gonna buy you now? Nope!! He was writing you a love letter. He came to the realization that no expensive gifts could show his love, so why not write his undying love for you?Â
- He began pouring his feelings into that piece of paper, how you made him feel, how he wanted to make you feel- everything, but most importantly, he wanted to know how much he loved you and how much he cared for you.
- The day of valentineâs day. You knew that your daring boyfriend would gift you with something expensive again, donât get me wrong, diamond and riches are a girlâs best friend! But something in you just wanted him to give you something that he worked on, something that he didnât waste his money on, but something he made for you and you only.
- The male came up to you after class, giving you a small bag. âMy gift to you.â he smiled, your classmates then looked to both of you, intrigued of what the rich Frenchman had gifted you this time.Â
-Â âThank you, Vincent.â you smiled, taking the bag. You looked inside where a small fuzzy black box was located and accompanied by a folded piece of paper. You looked at your classmates whom were long gone. (Chamber scared them away, by the way.)Â
- You giggled before pulling out the box and slowly opening it, a ring sat on top with your birth stone engraved in it, you gasped. Looking at him with shining eyes. He pulled out his hand that was hidden from him back, the same ring but his birthstone engraved in his ring. You squealed. âYou look even more dashing with that ring, Vincent!â you said, quickly putting your own ring.Â
- Before getting distracted by the ring, you pulled out the letter from the box which you almost forgot about. âMmm, whatâs this?â you teasingly asked as the male just chuckled. You unfolded the piece of paper before reading it.
- My dearest Y/n,Â
 I know you donât like expensive gifts so I decided to give you this. I love you, my dear. Words cannot simply express what fire you burn within me. Itâs a raging flame that simply cannot be put out.Â
Stay with me forever, with you I just know forever will be something to remember.
Yours truly, Vincent Fabron.
Yoru - Ryo Kiritani
- Like Chamber, he was also thinking far and wide of what to give you for Valentineâs day, he was originally not going to give you anything. Maybe just a kiss in the lips and that would be it. But that decision quickly changed with Phoenix and Jett popped along.
- âSoo, Ryo. Whatâre you gonna give Y/n!?â Jett asked loudly, slamming her hands on the table, catching Yoru off guard, flinching harshly. âYeah! Whatâre you gonna get her!?â Phoenix followed, slamming his own hands on the desk. âWhere the fuck did you come from!?â he shouted. âYou should give her a purse!â Phoenix recommended. âLike he has any money for that shit.â Jett scoffed. âHUH!?â Yoru shouted. âOh, yeah.. well- how about a love letter?â Phoenix recommended once more. âStop trying to decide what Iâll give to my girlfriend!â Yoru said, but his voice was not heard by the two. âA love letter..â Jett mumbled. âThatâs perfect!â Jett smiled at Phoenix. âWHAT- no! Stop that shit! Iâll give what I want to give to her!â Yoru retorted, seemingly unheard by them.
- âYouâll give her a love letter!â Jett looked at Yoru. âNo. I said stop, Iâll give what I wanna give to her.â he sighed. âMan, youâre a shitty boyfriend.â Phoenix rolled his eyes. âFine! Iâll give her a love letter if you leave me alone!â Yoru said with a long sigh. âDo you want me to help?â Jett said. âNo! Sheâs my girlfriend, not yours.â
- Yoru went home that day, when he thought about it even more, maybe a love letter would do the trick for him. On the walk home back to his house, he thought of what he was going to put in his letter. He wanted it to be straight to the point, he didnât want to dwell behind the bush.
- The more he thought about it, the more his heart started beating faster. At this point, he wasnât even thinking of the contents of the letter heâll give you, but you in general.
- He sat in his desk, a paper right in front of him. His mind was blank, he didnât really know what to put. But he wrote anything and everything he thought about you and his feelings for you down on that piece of paper.
- On the day of Valentineâs, you were opening your locker, not expecting much from your boyfriend, and then a letter sat on top of your books. You got excited, what could this be this time? A detention notice letter? A confession letter? Every possibility came to mind except the possibility of the letter coming from your boyfriend.
- You excitedly unfolded the piece of paper, reading the first few words instantly.
- I donât know how to say this any cringier but, I love you. And thatâs all you need to know.
Ryo Kiritani
- At the bottom of the paper, a small heart was scribbled down. Your cheeks heated of flaming red as you tried to hold down the squeal building up your throat. You jumped up and down softly, a muffled âeee!!â sound coming out of your mouth.
- After classes, you went to his chair, a huge smile in your face. The male looked up at you, a confused look on his face. âWhatâre you looking at?â he squinted his eyes at you. Without much thought you pressed your lips onto his. After a second or so, you pulled back, an even bigger grin on your face. You watched as his ears slowly fumed of a deep red. âA thank you for your lovely letter, and my gift to you.â you giggled.
Phoenix - Jamie Adayemi
- Jamie was originally going to buy you something, but he decided to give you something that was more- him, and more romantic! And what was more romantic other than a handwritten letter poured with words and feelings?
- He only thought of the idea the day of Valentineâs day, so it was kind of rushed- it totally wasnât because he forgot what month it was or anything, totallyy..
- So, he took a piece of paper from his bag and started scribbling words onto it in the middle of class. It wasnât like he wanted to pay attention to class anyway.
- By the end of the class, he had his Valentineâs gift prepared and ready!
- During lunch, he went to your classroom where you usually had your lunch with him, he quickly ran to your desk before placing the letter on your desk.
- âOh, hi Jamie.â you smiled. âHi, babe!â he grinned. âWhatâs this?â you asked him. âMy gift for Valentineâs day.â he took a chair from the desk in front of you and sat. âIs this your test or something?â you joked, opening the paper. âWhatt! I always ace my test, babe! What are you on abouttt?â he rolled his eyes.
- To my beautiful Y/n,
I love you so much. I canât really express it so- ILOVEYOUILOVEYOUILOVEYOUILOVEYOUILOVEYOUILOVEYOU!! Did I mention that I love you? Hmm, I donât think so. I love you, by the way.
I love you forevermore, my heart will beat for you until it stops.
<3
- You giggled, a small blush appearing your face. âDid the letter mention that I loved you?â he smiled. âMm, no..â you shook your head, giggling.Â
- He plants a kiss on your cheek, leaving you off-guard and all flustered. âI love you.â he chuckled.
Sova - Sasha Novikov
- He wrote you a letter that was specifically for Valentineâs day like 2 weeks before Valentineâs day. He was prepared for this shit, bro.
- He even decorated the letter and everything, he made sure to take his time to write every word, he wanted it to be clear, elegant and everything in between.
- He gave you the letter during lunch time with food that was prepared for you to eat.
- He went into your classroom, excited.
-Â âHi, Sasha!â you waved to him as he smiled softly.
- âHappy Valentineâs day, my dear.â he grinned, giving you the box of food and a letter on top. âHuh? You didnât have to..â you blushed, taking the box from his hands. He only giggled. âThe best for you.â he said.Â
- To my lovely Y/n,
I wish to be with you for eternity, even if eternity is impossible, I want to make it possible for you. I love you with all my heart, my body, and my soul.Â
Please be with me until we both take our last breaths.
Sincerely and dearly,
Sasha Novikov.
(UHGUGHUGH!! Sorry if you saw the decline of words, it just became shorter and shorter by every person. I hope you enjoyed it nonetheless, and tell me if you want more shit like this!! ;0)

âSomethingâs Wrong with Mr. Pink.â

Word Count: 2,054
Authorâs Note:Â as you can tell, quentin tarantino movies have been on my list!!! the reader is codenamed Miss Beige!! i never thought iâd have this much appreciation for steve buscemi until now, heâs such a cool guy :(((Â also thank you @myriadimaginesâ for checking my title capitalization aksnskdns - leave a like/reblog + feedback!!! <333
MR. BROWN gave Mr. Pink a ride to the next meeting, and the whole trip there, Brown rambled on and on about God knows what. It came through one ear and out the other for Pink. Brown didnât seem to notice because of his investment of his proven theory of a movie he had seen and wanted to share it with someone.Â
If he wasnât listening in silence, Pink would always have something to say. It would usually be a comment, an opinion on something about social life. This one afternoon, he bit his tongue, despite the guys knowing his mind was occupied, even Nice Guy Eddie raised a brow. It didnât start the day they were all given your colour coded names. It didnât start the day they reviewed the plan of the heist with each other. It all started when you two were unintentionally left alone at the large dining table, moments after the guys had walked out the restaurant for something.
âPinkâs a pretty colour.â You gave him a reassuring smile, stirring your straw in your milkshake.
âTo you.âÂ
âAnd to anyone else who would want to be codenamed Pink!â you scoff. âSexist.â
âEasy for you to say, youâre Miss Beige,â he says, his mouth full of his toast.Â
âAnd I happen to like my name. Itâs a pretty colour,â you paused. âJust like pink.â
Pink huffs, swirling his coffee mug. âI canât wait to smoke.â
âLucky.â
âMy buddy sets up Thai sticks like itâs one of those model boats in a bottle. Itâs so fragile to him, and he saved one for me. Something tells me I owe him a shit ton.â
âYou smoke Thai sticks?â you ask. âYour poor lungs.â
âNah, I gotta smoke outta one anytime after coffee just for me to either black out or jump off the Empire State building by the time we hit Easter.â
You chuckled.
From the windows of the restaurant, you could see the guys standing outside their parked cars including Nice Guy Eddie and Joe, talking to each other about whatever. You could see their mouths moving, Nice Guy Eddie using a lot of hand motions at Mr. White, and Joe calling someone on the phone.
This wasnât the first time you spent a limited amount of minutes alone with Mr. Pink. At Uncle Bobâs Pancake House, you two did sit close to each other, except Mr. Blue sat in between the both of you, and you had to lean forward to see Mr. Pink if he was speaking or if you two were giving each other looks if someone said something stupid.
If you were that childish, you would've considered the five minutes of alone time with Mr. Pink a first date - without the formal introduction. You two didnât give each other your names because of Joe, but you wouldnât mind slipping it out.
Silence, and then-
âI know this really cool cafĂŠ near my apartment. We should check it out sometime,â you blurted out.
Pink was in the midst of swallowing his food. He chokes on his ketchup dipped toast, taking his coffee mug to chase the contents down his throat.
âWait a minute-â Pink cleared his throat, then cleared it again. âAre you-â he cleared his throat for the final time. âAre you asking me out?â
âY-yeah,â you sheepishly smile, holding in your breath. âI mean, we can go get coffee, hang out at my place afterwards - itâs just a five minute walk - and sit on my couch, listen to K-Billyâs Super Sounds of the â70s, you can smoke your Thai stick, I wouldnât mind...â By looking at Pinkâs face made you trail off your words. You knew where this was going.Â
âYou couldnât ask Brown or Orange?â
âNo, I wanted to ask you. Weâve been talking lately, we seem to get along, thank God, and youâre really cool. Even when you can be an absolute dick almost all the time, you havenât scared me off. Just one date, it wonât kill us.â
âA date...â he frowns a bit. âWith you?â
âWhatâs wrong with me?â your heart sank.
âNothingâs wrong with you, Miss Beige. Ya just got the wrong idea. Weâre here for a job, not to hook up. If you want to suck someone off, try your luck with Mr. Blonde. Besides, I go for chicks at a bar. I know from experience, theyâre always coming in hot - first come, first serve typaâ shit.â
âRight. My bad.â You felt yourself shrinking now, fighting the urge to get up and make a dash outta there, somewhere to scream in embarrassment, whatever emotion it was.Â
âExcuse me.â Mr. Pink gets up and walks away, just as the rest of the guys start making their return to the large table.
âWhere did Mr. Pink go?â Mr. Orange asked.
âLittle menâs room, Iâm guessing.â You sighed, sliding the milkshake away from you. âIâm full.â
âSomethingâs wrong with Mr. Pink. Did you guys get in a fight? We were only gone for five minutes,â Mr. Brown laughs.
You sat in silence, staring down.
âNah, I bet she finally put him in his place and heâs crying like a baby in there,â Mr. Blue said, lighting the cigar in his mouth with a match.
âMost definitely not.â Mr. White shook his head, patting his pockets in search of his lighter. âThat manâs a smartass, and smartasses like him know how to shield themselves. Heâs fine. If anything, he can walk his ass home.â
Meanwhile, Mr. Pink calmly entered the restroom, placed both hands on each side of the tiny sink, stared at his reflection in the dirty mirror, and screamed in anger.Â
He jumps when he notices a man had appeared from one of the stalls just a moment ago, staring at him worriedly.
âWHAT?!â Mr. Pink snaps.
If someone treated him like a friend, he goes along with it if they werenât weird or creepy. If someone told a joke, heâll laugh if it isnât corny or cringeworthy. But if someone admitted their feelings to him? Let alone ask him out?
That was the thing: Mr. Pink doesnât like the idea of vulnerability. Heâs aware that itâs unavoidable, itâs human nature - he just chooses not to give into it. Mr. Pink wonât waste a breath giving anyone the impression that heâs easy to get along with and that heâs a kind of guy to not act like a complete jerk half the time, because thatâs not true. Not on his behalf, at least.Â
âMr. White,â Mr. Pink approaches him in the vacant room at the hideout one day.
He knows people can judge. So he naturally survives on witty remarks, being a sarcastic ass most of the time, and coffee, coffee, and more coffee. Coffee times six.Â
Mr. White finishes combing his hair in the small mirror, nodding at him as a response. âYou all right, son?â
But at the same time, his heart was telling him he wants you all to himself. âI got a problem...â
"SO you want my help?â Mr. White said, a few moments after Mr. Pink had explained the situation he was stuck in. âYouâre completely hopeless right now? Gosh, is it my birthday already?â
âYouâre full of shit,â Pink mumbled.
âThought youâre sâposed to be a fuckinâ professional, like you said?â Mr. White chuckled. âI would have thought you would know what to do by now.â
âWhat am I, the Dalai Lama? I donât know the answer to everything.â
âI mean... I kinda figured something was goinâ on between you two, I tried to warn her,â White shoots him a blank stare.
âWarn her?â Mr. Pink scowls. âLike Iâm some fuckinâ tiger on the loose?â
âI did tell her: Listen, honey,â Mr. White grimaced, as he saw you like a sixteen-year-old teenager not knowing better than to get her heart broken. âAre you one hundred percent sure you like Mr. Pink? Heâs a pretty cynical guy. You know he doesnât tip waitresses?â
You shrug.
âLook, I know I can be very close to myself while very outspoken but,â Mr. Pink sighs. âI mean, câmon, youâve seen Miss Beige. Who wouldnât want her? One time, she called in sick for a job she worked at just to play Super Mario World.â
âYou could go there and apologize to her.â
âItâs not that easy, White.â
âHow so? Just tell her you freaked out but you had a change of heart.â
âNo, man. I could have accepted it right there and then, I could be taking her out somewhere, a place she likes, or that caf�� she was talking about. But no, I turn into the cold piece of shit I always am âcause Iâm a fucking-â Mr. Pink kicks the rusty chair in anger. â-idiot!â He kicks it again, hurting his foot in the process. He cries out in pain and hops away to the table for balance.
âMr. Pink, itâs not too late to win her heart. If you really like her, and I can tell youâd take a bullet for her, then brush the professionalism aside for one second and make your move.â
âHow?â he chuckles, taking a seat in the chair he had just kicked.
âWell, you can start by introducing yourself.â
âAlready done.â
âNo I mean, your name.â
âWhoa, whoa whoa. What weâre not gonna do is that.â Mr. Pink ran his fingers through his hair, turning his back to White to therapeutically stare at the light pink tiles on the walls.Â
âWhy not?â White shrugs. âI told her mine. And itâs-â
Mr. Pink turned around. âWhat?â
Mr. White furrowed his brows. âHuh?â
âYou told her your name?â he said. In his mind he prayed Mr. White gave her a fake name on the spot.
âI mean, not just her. Mr. Orange, too. My first name and where I was from, it was a normal conversation.â
â...WHY?!â Pinkâs voice echoed in the warehouse.
âOrange asked.â
âYou know what Joe said, weâre not supposed to reveal any personal info about ourselves!â
âJoe said this, Joe said that- fucking teacherâs pet,â Mr. White mocks.
âWhat the hell were you thinking, White?â he shouts.
âHow else can you and Miss Beige take a step further if you canât even tell each other your fuckinâ names? Just introduce yourself, Pink. Thatâs one way to start,â Mr. White says.
âAnd what if she doesnât like my name?â He could only come up with such a question like that.
âWhat is your name?âÂ
âFuck you, man.â Mr. Pink stood up from the chair, earning a chuckle from his colleague.
âAll right, if you wonât tell me your name, then tell y/n. Y/n should be the only one who can know.â
Mr. Pink turned back to him again. âY/N?â he says. âThatâs her name?â
Mr. White nods. As heated as Mr. Pink was, he knew one day your name would have to fall out of his lips and not a colour, and he wouldnât mind that. Y/N...
Mr. Pink wouldnât mind that one bit.
FROM now on, the cafĂŠ near your apartment complex would be your go-to. It was a cafĂŠ not too small but not too big, and no one would bat an eye if you showed up in your pajamas. The following Saturday you went there alone, sipping your coffee and turning to the second page of the morning paper.Â
What sucked was the fact that after you were turned down, you came to think that Mr. Pink wouldnât be able to see how cool the interior was. He sure was missing out. Sure his Thai stick wonât be stinking up your living room while throwback songs from the â70s play on the radio, but indeed, sucks for him.
âShit, you were right, y/n. This place is pretty neat.â
The newspaper crinkled when you lowered it down. Standing at the foot of your booth was Mr. Pink. This time he didnât have on his silly Hawaiian shirt like last time, and no, he didnât ironically wear pink as a kind gesture. He did look good in a white tee, though.Â
You had to smile. He knew your name. And you wondered how...
âOh, Mr. Pink. Morning,â you nodded.
He takes a seat in front of you. âCâmon, weâre not at work. Just call meââ
THE END

thank you babyyy this is stupid long im sorry it got really messy and i ended up hating it but its too long not to post so im sorry that this is trash lolÂ
---
sunflower - n.m.
youâd be left in the dust
unless i stuck by ya
youâre the sunflower
i think your love would be too much
âdog, youâre not really making any sense,â edwin sighed to his distressed friend. âslow down.â
nick sniffled and rubbed his forehead, scared of the deep feeling of resolution sinking into his stomach. the realization that this could be the end of his relationship.Â
âi told her i would pull up to her place after the movie, but after i just picked up z and we drove around and i kept my phone on silent âcause i knew she was gonna call.âÂ
âyou were avoiding her?â edwin asked, making a perplexed hand gesture. âwhy?â
âi donât know!â nick exclaimed. âsheâs flying home for her midterms tonight, and today was her last recording session so sheâs gonna be studying all day and i just didnât wanna be around her during all that brainy shit, it just gets on my nerves.âÂ
edwin frowned in confusion at his friend, but held his silence.
âanyway, she called brandon to ask about the movie, and then you guys obviously, and when she got around to zion, thatâs when i decided to go see her.â
brandon re-entered the living room with a bottle of water that he handed to his friend. he sat down on the floor across from nickâs seat on the couch and beside edwinâs on the loveseat. edwin rested his elbows on his knees, leaning in to listen, while brandon settled his back on the side of coffee table with upset eyes.Â
âsheâŚshe wouldnât let me in.â nick paused to take a gulp of his water. the water squeezed past the lump on his throat. âshe said she hadnât studied at all âcause she was worried about me. she said she was done, and that she was tired of our relationship being her trying to get me to be nice to her and trying to trust me when she never knows shit aboutâŚaboutâŚi dunno, something like that, i donât remember.â with his eyes glued to the ground in a deadpan stare, he said, âshe said she didnât wanna be with me. and then she closed the door, and i left.âÂ
brandon and edwin shared a look before trying to detangle the situation that had just unfolded before them.Â
âsoâŚummmâŚâ brandon rubbed his mouth. âhave you guys been having problems like this? âcause i donât think she woulda done this unprovoked.âÂ
nick sighed, clenching his jaw in an attempt to hold back tears.Â
âi guessâŚi donât know, broâŚsheâs just always busy. i mean, not busy, but always moving. sheâs always doing the most, whether itâs recording or going to meetings or working on her clothing line or tryna stay caught up at college orâŚi donât know, flying to the fuckinâ moon. and iâm just tryna be with her, not with, likeâŚher grind. does that make sense?âÂ
âkind ofâŚâ brandon answered.Â
âbut nick, she literally invited you over on her only free night to study before going home for midterms. sheâs trying.âÂ
âyeah, i know, but itâs likeâŚwhen iâm with her, itâs like i know that she could be doing some more important shit, and that she probably wants to, but she gotta slow down and make time for me. like, âdonât have dinner with me, you should be running for president or some shit.â that typa shit. and iâm proud of her, for real. i really got the baddest out there, but i wake up and shower and maybe work out and then go see her, and by that same time sheâs cleared half her schedule of the crazy amount of shit she has to do. when iâm with her, i feel like iâm wasting her time.âÂ
âyoâŚâ edwin said after several seconds.
âyouâre a fuckin idiot,â brandon finished for him.
âyeah, thanks, fuck you,â nick said throwing his body back to the cushion.Â
âno, for real. youâre mad at her and treating her like shit because you feel small next to all her success? that is the worst thing a guy can do to a girl, nick. get over yourself, bro. youâre crazy about her and youâre avoiding her because she loves you and youâreâwhat, insecure?â
âyeah,â edwin gestured to brandon in agreement. âand she loves you too. obviously, or she wouldnât have put up with your shit for so long. you got so lucky. a strong ass girl with her future and her life straight. if you feel like youâre not good enough, you should be doing the exact opposite of whatever the fuck you were doing before. you should treat her like the world. and why she loves you, thatâs none of your business, man. thatâs âcause of god.â he gestures to the air above him. âsheâs winning in every part of her life except with you, because of you.â
nickâs eyes alternated between his two friends for some time, comprehending their advice. he dug his palms into his eyes and groaned.
âwhy the fuck didnât yâall tell me that before she broke up with me!? sheâs boutta leave the fuckin state!âÂ
âwhenâs her flight?â edwin asked.
nick checked his watch and took a deep breath.Â
âtwo hours.âÂ
âget the fuck outta here, then!â edwin yelled, getting up from his seat.Â
âiâll call maggie and see if sheâs already on her way to the airport,â brandon told nick, who was already jumping off the couch in search of his car keys. within minutes, he was on the road, flying through the night traffic one hand on the wheel and the other placing calls to your phone that went unanswered every time. after a few minutes, brandonâs text was a beacon of hope.
maggie says she just left ina taxi
nick swerved to make an exit that would take him to the airport, throwing his phone on the dash.Â
he drove for some time, heart thudding in his chest like a drum, looking through the window of any taxi he could see. finally, about ten minutes out from the airport, he spotted a taxi. as he neared it, he saw a familiar head of hair atop a lowered head, the curve of a nose. just briefly, he saw you sitting in the backseat.
he quickly found his place behind the taxi, never faltering. he texted your phoneâstop the taxi get outta the taxi ill drive you thereâand watched as you lifted your head and looked at the cars around you to find him. you looked over your shoulder and made distant eye contact with him. it was difficult to see in the darkness of the night, but he knew it was you, and you knew it was him. even from here, he could see how drained you were.
you left his texts unanswered still, but now nick knew where you were. he followed the taxi the rest of the way to the airport. nick watched the driver park and swivelled into place beside him. he jumped out of the car, and the first word out of his mouth was your name. he ran around his car to the side in which you were sitting. you hadnât gotten out yet, but rather stared at the seat in front of you.
ây/n, can you hear me out?â nick asked. he moved to the passenger window in front of your seat and knocked on it, signalling to the driver. âiâll pay the fare. iâll pay the fare, iâll pay it, i was supposed to drive her,â he says. the driver nods hesitantly before deciding to go on his phone.
ây/n,â nick said, back to your window. âplease. okay, you donât needa talk, but just listen, okay?â he swallowed, preparing to speak, but found that he had no words. he had been so worried about getting to you in time that he didnât think of what to say to get you back. panicking, he tried to recall the things his friends told him.Â
âiâmâŚiâiâve been treating you like shit. like, youâre right, what you said about how iâm not even nice to you sometimes. and itâs notâŚnot cause i have any kinda bad feelings toward you. i love you. i love you, itâs likeâŚi love you so much and youâre just soââ he stopped his to take a breath, and the tears now caught up with him. âyouâre so strong and intelligent and beautiful. youâre fucking radiant and youâre perfect, and you treat me so good that i feel like compared to how great you are, iâm just not all that. and youâre doing so much shit with your life. i feel like iâm in your way. âcause you donât need me and that scares the shit outta me.â
you took a deep breath, hung your head, and nick felt like he was getting to you.Â
âplease, can you justâŚcome out? so i can talk to you?â he pleaded. he watched as you frowned in contemplation at your feet for five, ten, twenty seconds. finally, he stepped back as you slowly opened the door and stepped outside with your arms folded defensively over your chest.Â
âiâŚâ he began, his heart aching over your puffy, red face. âi canât take it sometimes. your love is too much, âcause thereâs nothing iâve ever done that would make me deserve it.âÂ
finally, you met his eyes. nick felt all his emotions caving into his chest at once.Â
âyou loving me is likeâŚâ he blinked at the sky for a moment. âitâs likeâŚitâs like a flower loving an ant. it doesnât make sense.â he tapped his temples in emphasis. âand i guess itâs just always been easier to avoid it than work toward even feeling like i deserve it.âÂ
finally, he was done. he waited for you, praying you would believe him after the trust he had let wilt between you two.
âyou always deserved it,â you said quietly, looking to the ground. âjust by being you. i never asked for anything but for you to be with me.âÂ
nick scratched the nape of his neck, his tears sliding lazily down his cheeks.Â
âiâm sorry,â he said in a cracked voice. you looked up at him, watched his contorted face for a moment with wet eyes before sighing and blinking. your arms unfolded from your chest, and after a momentâs thought, slowly came around nickâs waist. he pulled you into a tight hug and buried his face in your hair.Â
âiâm sorry,â he whispered several more times. you pressed your mouth to his shoulder and let your own tears run at the relief that you wouldnât have to do this thing; you wouldnât have to leave the man you love. you heaved a deep breath and melted into him for comfort over the hell that the last few hours had been.Â
âplease donât make me feel like that again,â you whispered in a genuine plea. âlike you donât care about me.â
âi wonât. never again. never,â he shook his head, voice muffled.Â
suddenly, you let out a small chuckle.Â
âwhat?â nick asked, pulling away slightly.Â
âiâm really gonna fail my midterm for you.â
