《Forbidden Gardens| Tokoyami x Reader book》Chapter 2: Lunch

Advertisement

(Y/N) POV

It's been two weeks since I started UA, Tokoyami and Aoyama were my best friends. After the bell had rang and our class was dismissed for lunch, I stepped out of the classroom with my lunchbox in hand. I thought to myself that I was probably going to be sitting alone, just as that thought came to my head, someone tapped my shoulder lightly. I turned to see Tokoyami staring down at me "Hey, (Y/N), would..would you like to have lunch with me?" He asked, feathers puffing up. I smiled at him "Sure!" He was so cute when his feathers fluffed up like that. I think I might be starting to like him...

I sat down next to Tokoyami and Aoyama they were so far the only two people I knew. At first, I though Tokoyami and Aoyama wouldn't seem to get along, but they actually become friends. Aoyama starts asking him if he can help him make a suit of black armour and Tokoyami almost cried. I picked at my sandwich, kind of jealous that Tokoyami was paying attention to Aoyama instead of me.. wait, why would I be jealous? We're just friends! What's wrong with me? I bit my lip unconsciously. Tokoyami looks back at me "Are you okay (Y/N), you seem awfully quiet.."

"Yeah I'm fine, I'm just not used to having friends I guess.." I timidly lowered my voice as I neared the end of my sentence. Tokoyami ran his fingers through my hair causing me to giggle. "We're friends now though, so you better get used to it." Tokoyami said in a reassuring voice. I smiled and ruffled his feathers.

Suddenly, I felt something wrap around my waist and tug me towards Tokoyami. I squeaked as Tokoyami caught me in his arms. I blushed, my hands were on his chest as well as my head, his hands were holding my waist. We stood like that for a moment. Aoyama looked at us and smiled "I'll leave you two be" and he shuffled away. Tokoyami tugged at my shirt "A-Are you alright (Y-Y/N)...?" He said still holding me. I couldn't seem to pry away from him.

Tokoyami's POV

(Y/N) was in my arms, her hands laid on my chest causing the blood to rush to my face. I put my hands on her waist and tugged at her shirt "A-Are you alright (Y-Y/N)?" I asked in concern, for some reason I didn't want to let go of her, I wanted to hold her and never let go. 'What are you doing, oh God she looks so adorable from here.. wait don't think that, she's probably uncomfortable AHAJHAHHAHSJCNFNCNCN BHSND' I thought. She didn't try to pry away from me though. "I-I'm okay, something kind of pulled me I-I don't know what though.." I looked down to see Dark Shadow, I growled at him, but silently thanked him, for allowing me to coddle (Y/N) like this. I finally pulled away, things were starting to get awkward and we were both blushing furiously. The bell rang and we both headed back for our classes. I turned my head away from her and smiled. I hope one day I'll get to hold her like that again..

(Y/N) POV

As soon as school was over I put the books I didn't need away in storage to my locker, where they could rest. Tokoyami wanted to walk me home, and I let him. On our walk home he talked to me about his quirk. "Dark Shadow has a mind of his own, and he just comes out whenever he wants to, unless I tell him no, sorry if he startled you at lunch.." I shook my head "No no! He's fine I actually rather enjoyed it.." my voice trailed off "What was that?" He asked "N-nothing I just said he's fine!" I said with blushing raging my face. "You're pretty red, would you like my jacket to wear, you can give it back to me tomorrow," he said, which reminded me how cold my room was because father is too drunk to pay for some heat in the house. I nodded and he draped it over my shoulder. I snuggled into it to hide my blush.

Tokoyami's POV

She was wearing my sweater and she looked so adorable, her sweet red face his in the black cloth. I chuckled to myself. 'I think I'm falling for her..' I pondered to myself. I felt my hand brush up against hers by accident, and she jumped, causing me to quickly pull away "I-Im sorry are you okay?" I asked her "N-No I'm fine I'm just not used to being touched.." she looked away. She worried me, was she really that touch starved. I looked at her and saw her hand trying to inch towards mine. I felt butterflies in my stomach as I grabbed her hands and intertwined her small fingers with mine. I headed her squeak softly, making me smile. "T-Tokoyami.." I heard her mutter under her breath. God she's so precious.

(Y/N) POV

'OH MY GOD OH MY GOD, TOKOYSMI IS HOLDING MY HAND AHHHH' I could feel my face on fire and I squeaked. I figured he was doing it because we are good friend but maybe we can be more... I looked at my broken down house and stopped. "This is it.. sorry it looks horrible my parents aren't really.. nice people...." He widened his eyes. "Okay (Y/N), are you going to be okay?" I nodded and felt his hand through my hair. "Alright see you later baby" "You too!" I said to him as he walked away. It took me ten seconds, the whole walk to my front door to realize what he just said... He called me baby, was that by accident, maybe it was, but still EEEEE.

As soon as I walked through my door I rushed up the stairs, closed my door, jumped on my bed and burrowed my face into his sweater. I could hear my parents fighting downstairs but I didn't care, today was the best day ever. The sky soon went dark and I fell asleep in his jacked, happily thinking about today's events.

Tokoyami's POV

I could barely fall asleep, I had accidentally called her baby, why did I do that, I hope she doesn't think I'm weird. Did I push it too far? Maybe I should confess to her tomorrow. Oh goodness ahh she was so cute in my sweater and holding my hand, her hands were so soft and fit so well in mine... I finally fell asleep and dreamt of her and being with her. I was definitely in love.
