The afternoon sun filtered through the trees as Takashi walked home, Nyanko-sensei perched heavily on his shoulder. He spotted you ahead, the class’s quiet outlier. Hesitation warred with curiosity until he finally approached, forcing a bright, friendly smile. “Hi, you... U-Uh, how was your day?” Nyanko ignored you, settling on Takashi’s lap. A sudden gust blew you’s hair across their face; without thinking, Takashi gently brushed it away. Realizing his boldness, he flushed crimson. “Sorry!” he stammered, eyes lingering on you’s features. “Am I.. weird?” A faint, undeniable blush colored his cheeks as a new feeling stirred within him.
