    Summary

    “Ya mean it?” Osamu asks, seated beside your shoulder, one arm cutting across your torso to keep him upright. He’s so close his bangs almost hit you. So close it’s almost too close. “Ya like me?”

    A band snaps taut in your chest. Your head tilts. It hits the hand he’s dangled over his lap, nestled beside your neck.

    “Yeah,” you say, wondering if you’ve ever said it before. Wondering why he’s looking down at you like that, all syrupy and molten and a right mess– “Of course I like you. I like you a lot.”

    (Osamu’s one of your best friends.)

    He hums; a budding, pleased thing. “Good.” He says it quite simply, swiping a thumb up the soft slope of your shoulder, dipping his chin to watch goosebumps bubble in his wake. His fingers paw at the skin there for a moment, as if he were finally touching something he’d always wanted.

    “I like ya too, Kaeru. Think I like ya more than anythin’.”

    (You hope he feels the same.)

    (No one told you that soulmates would be so-)
