“Holy shit” - [Y/N]’s sudden reaction made Cater look at you with a confused stare, “What’s up? You look like you saw a walking corpse or something” - Cater joked but flinched when his classmate suddenly made a sharp turn to look at him and grasp both of his hands.
“I have never in my life kissed someone” - [Y/N] said in a tone of voice that would make anyone think that it’s the end of the world, though in his case, it may as well be so.
“Okayy? Don’t worry about it, I’m pretty sure others haven’t kissed anyone yet” – “Really? Like who?” - Said semi-sarcastic question made Cater pause, “Uhh… Vil! I’m sure Vil hasn’t kissed someone”
That only made the Ignyhide student’s face grow paler, “If someone like Vil goddamn Schoenheit hasn’t had a kiss, how will I have one?” - [Y/N] let go of Cater’s hands and put them on his lap in seemingly defeat.
“Look, I’m not saying that he hasn’t gotten smooched FOR SURE, so can you please calm down? It’s not even close to 1 o’clock and you’re already having an existential crisis..” - Cater sighed and nudged the plate of food closer to the other teen.
“Cater, I’m on the way to being a grown man and I haven’t had anyone kiss me on the lips, do you have any idea how pathetic that is?” – “It’s not world ending, jeez” – “IT MAY AS WELL BE”
Cater’s patience was already running low and so was his hunger, but he immediately thought of something that would certainly give [Y/N] the push he oh so desperately needed.
“You can go ask our beloved Idia” - Cater grinned slyly, he could see the gears in [Y/N]’s brain turning, until he got the hint and immediately bolted out of his seat and out the cafeteria.
That sly diamond bastard knew just how to work him.

Idia’s day was going normal, he was huddled up in his room since he left class and was enjoying his time before having to do more schoolwork.
But that moment of peace was interrupted once he heard his door slam open making him almost fall off his bed.
[Y/N] closed the door and walked towards Idia, completely ignoring the others' whines and complaints of the noise. He sat in front of Idia and grabbed his shoulders while staring him right in the face.
“[Y-Y/N]-shi? Are you oka-” – “I have never kissed anyone in my eighteen years of living” - [Y/N] said in a point-blank manner which made Idia flare up, “W-WHY ARE YOU TELLING ME THIS!? DID YOU HIT YOUR HEAD??”
[Y/N] urged Idia to quiet down and loosened his grip on his shoulders, “Listen, I was just wondering if you could help me out” - He said in a very oblivious way which only made the embarrassment on Idia’s part grow.
“Dude, that’s some SERIOUS otome scenario setup, w-what are you pulling at?” - Idia interrogated which made his classmate very confused, “What do you mean? I really just want you to help me out”
Idia gulped down his embarrassment and looked dead at [Y/N], “A-Are you positive you wanna do this?” - “Positive.”
Idia let out a shaky exhale and let his trembling hands slowly remove [Y/N]’s from his shoulders, “R-right so. I-If you’re going to kiss someone, you have to set the mood” - [Y/N] stared intently at his housewarden which reminded Idia of a cat and it started to make his heart feel mushy.
…
What.
No.
There’s absolutely no way his heart started to feel funny at that.
NOT AT [Y/N] [L/N]. NOPE. NEVER. NUH-UH. NO WAY. THAT GUY IS HIS FRIEND. NOT ANYTHING MORE.
Idia’s heart started to race with his mind, sure [Y/N] was handsome and nice and had a really good sense of humor, not to mention the fact that his face looked like it was built by the gods themselves and also that his voice was the most soothing thing to hear.
But he left all of those feelings back in their first year, right?
….Right?
“Idia? Are you okay?” - [Y/N] asked as he waved his hand in front of Idia’s face, but the mere sound of that melodic voice calling out to him was enough to snap him back, “Hm? Oh ye-yeah, I’m all good..” - He wasn’t.
“Right, uhm.. Oh yeah, moods! Try to, I dunno, get close to the person and put your hand on theirs, or on their arm, or their thigh…” - Please stop projecting, Idia Shroud.
“Maybe even lean close and call to them and once they look, do t-the uh, the kiss..” - You’re way too obvious.
“Idia.”
Idia hummed and took his attention away from his lap to find [Y/N]’s face close to his, before he could react, it happened.
The moment he longed for since he was sixteen.
He felt soft and slightly cold lips on his own, a warm hand found its home on the back of his neck with the other placed softly on his cheek.
Idia’s trembling hands slowly made their way to the other teen’s waist and he finally returned the action.
Idia couldn’t get over how everything felt like it belonged, the way [Y/N]’s hands tenderly held him in such a way that made him feel as if he was molded to be held by him, the way their lips were the complete opposite in the best way possible.
He felt himself get pulled closer and closer until they were pressed against each other.
The moment was sadly over once [Y/N] pulled away and rested his forehead against Idia’s, the hand that was once on his neck was now holding his other cheek and his thumb softly caressed the warm skin.
“Like that?” - [Y/N] asked which made Idia snicker and give his lips a small kiss again, “Yeah, just like that”
“I’ve loved you the moment I saw you, y’know?” - [Y/N] admitted as he continued caressing Idia’s cheek, “So did I. I-I was an internal mess when I saw you..” - Idia said as he started feeling slightly embarrassed which only made [Y/N] let out a soft chuckle.
It was more than just a soft chuckle. It was filled with admiration, adoration and love, it made Idia’s stomach feel like a knot filled with annoying butterflies.
That was everything [Y/N] felt too. He admired him, he adored him and most important of all, he loved him. “So.. We’re a thing, r-right?” - Idia asked and burned up once again as he felt [Y/N] kiss his lips again, “We absolutely are”
