rainy days were my favorite. always have been. sometimes when i was younger, i'd just look out the window for hours on a rainy day, watching the droplets of water trickle down to the ground.

looking back on my childhood, i was a very boring kid. wow. that's pretty sad, me.

again, i stopped in the hallway for the millionth time to just stare out the big windows of u.a. high, my friends continuing to walk and talk amongst themselves.

whenever it rained, it was most likely that i'd stop and then they'd notice, but keep going because they know i'll catch up soon. i always did, sooner or later.

but sometimes they'd have to snap me back into reality if i stayed too long. what can i say? rain is mesmerizing.

tamaki was usually the one to bring me back to the group. he always noticed it first, and told mirio and nejire that he was going to come to get me.

"(y/n)." my eyes blinked rapidly, the sounds of students talking filling my ears again. i turned my head around to see tamaki. "oh! hi, tamaki. sorry, i was looking at the rain again." i laughed nervously. he looks to the ground. "let's get back to mirio. they're already in the cafeteria." he says in a small voice.

me, being a dumbass, didn't know that anything was wrong at the moment. i nodded to him, and we made our way back to the group.

after about halfway there, tamaki said something. "c-can i tell you something, (y/n)?" i blink. "of course! what's the tea?"

tamaki looked at me oddly for a second- probably wondering about my choice of words. whatever lmao. "would you l-like to walk with me after school?"

i process this for a moment. he never asked something like this. and, never in public. or anywhere. is tamaki ok???? is my baby ok???????

i think he noticed the confusion on my face. "t-to the dorms, of course! you don't have to say yes..." he trails off, looking at the ground, ashamed.

i stop in my tracks. he stops, too. i walk in front of him and looked him directly in the eyes. i may or may not have had to stand on my toes for that.

tamaki began to... blush? or sweat? idk, it was kind of a mixture of both imo. "tamaki, listen to me. you will never have to be afraid to ask me something. because i'll always say yes! depending on if its, like, if you wanna conquer the world or something..."

"oh! and yes, to your question." you say. by now, tamaki would've either collapsed on the ground and renounced dead on the spot because of how red his face was or have run away the other side of the earth. because gOd this baby was so embarrassed and in so much love like haughsdhskfhs i love him sm

anyways!! after the school day ends, i have already told mirio and nejire that tamaki and i were walking back to the dorms!!! alone!!!! they supported me like the superb funky friends they were!!!!! and went ahead of us like planned(?)!!!!!!!

as tamaki and i made our way back to the third year dorms, the tension between us couldn't have gotten any worse.

... unless i spoke! and that's exactly what i did. "so... rain! do you like it?" i ask awkwardly, holding the umbrella that kept both of us not soaked from the rain that continued to pour down.

he looks at me. his eyes tell me that they appreciate the effort to make this walk less awkward. "... yes. i find it calming." tamaki replied. my eyes brightened up with joy. "cool! me too, but you already knew that..." i trail off, the sounds of rain landing on the umbrella between us and sliding off giving me instant euphoria.

after moments of walking, tamaki stopped. i stopped as well so that he wouldn't get caught in the rain. he turns to me. i turn my head, shifting the umbrella in my left hand to my other. i look up at him, wondering why he stopped. tamaki looked like a tomato right now.

tamaki began to lean into me... was he going for a kiss? maybe he was because his head stopped halfway to my lips. i simply smiled apologetically, turning to him and bringing him in for it with my free hand.

his lips against mine felt like silk. my eyes closed and i let myself melt at his simple touch. tamaki's lips were warm, like a nice fireplace in the winter. the umbrella in my hand dropped, leaving us in the rainy day. but did i care? of course not. i was kissing the shyest guy in u.a., and i liked- no, loved it. 

i felt his hands gently wrap around my waist before our lips departed for air. i gasped, taking a breath.  rain fell into my eyes, making me blink before tamaki took me in for another kiss. it was short, but i'd never forget it. 

on this rainy day, i kissed the guy who i love. 

on this rainy day, i kissed tamaki of class 3a.
