You crept open the door to find a sleeping Ichimatsu on the floor. The brothers practically begged you not to intrude on his sleep, but nothing was going to stop you.

"Holler if you need anything." Osomatsu said hurriedly, shutting the door behind you. You turned to face Ichi again as his chest rose up and down.

"Ichi-kun, I'm here to see you.~" You whispered to him. He mumbled a little, beginning to open his eyes. They shot open as he looked up at you.

"O-Oh, you're here already? Sorry, I forgot you were coming..." He sat up a little, ruffling his already messy hair.
"It's okay! Looks like you were having a pretty good nap." You giggled, tossing back your (H/C) hair.

You knew Ichi well because you came to the Matsu residence often. He was usually by himself while his brothers seemed to forget his presence. At first, he appeared to be annoyed with you, but the others informed you that this was how he usually was.

Sometimes you would imitate a cat to get a reaction from him, or do something silly to see if he would smile. Rarely, he would chuckle a little at your actions and call you "annoying" in a cute way.

Despite Ichi's apparent low self-esteem, you admired him greatly and wished you could make him happy.

"What would you like to do today, Ichi-kun?" You started up a conversation.
"Um, I dunno. Whatever you want to do, (Y/N)-chan." He replied.

He rarely added '-chan' to your name, so you assumed he was in a good mood today.

"Alright, I want to play with your cat!" You announced, sitting on the floor opposite of him. He nodded, glancing toward the meowing feline.

His heart pounded as he handed you the cat, immediately shoving his hands into his pocket afterwards. He found you adorable while you nuzzled your nose against the cat's furr, giggling as you did.

After a few minutes of tolerating your heart-wrenching antics, he pinned you to the floor. The cat scurried out between you both as Ichimatsu gave you an unamused look.

"You should know better than that,
(Y/N)... I'm already dead as it gets. Stop trying to give me a heart attack." He gave a disheartened laugh.

You shut your (E/C) eyes as he spoke.
"I-I'm sorry, Ichi-kun! Please don't get upset." You squeaked out.

He shut you up with a deep kiss. Your eyes flew open to meet the droopy ones in front of you. He groaned a little as you both separated.

"I like you, (Y/N), so be quiet about it." He said curtly, letting a 'tch' fall from his lips.

You heard the door slam as Ichimatsu released you, followed by a bellowed scream from Karamatsu.

"Didn't you all see? Ichi kissed her!" Karamatsu shouted.

"That's it, I'm going to kill that Shittymatsu!" Ichi stomped, opening the door to follow him.

You could only watch, still speechless from Ichi's courageous act. Ichi's cat climbed into your lap, purring loudly.

It seemed you had fallen harder for the droopy-eyed Matsu more than you thought.
