Izumi didn't know how she got onto the school roof at 2-something in the morning, yet here she was. On the school roof at 2-something in the morning, crying. Luckily, though, no one else should be awake, so she was free to cry alone. As she cried alone, she heard sniffles that weren't her own coming from behind the giant electric unit on the school roof.
Izumi blinks before getting up and walking over to it as she rubs her eyes. She could feel her heart start running. She peeks behind it to see her upperclassman. Amajiki Tamaki. She blinked, her tears still falling, though not as bad as before.
"S-Senpai?” She asked softly, her voice slightly hoarse from crying.
Tamaki jumped a bit and looked up from where his head was buried in his crossed arms on his knees. "I-Izumi-san." He squeaked softly, his face red with embarrassment at being caught crying like this. Then he blinked as he relaxed; she, too, was crying.
Instead of asking her what was wrong, he shifted so she could sit next to him. After all, if she wanted someone to talk to, she wouldn't be on the school roof. Izumi gave him a small, shaky smile before sitting next to him with a soft, sad sigh.
They just sat like that, both crying for different reasons; both were sure it was for different reasons. They just sit there with each other, crying. At some point Izumi's head rested on his shoulder, his arm around her as they just cried. For some reasons, both sound this peaceful, and they are the most relaxed they've been in a while. Both stayed like that even after their tears stopped.
They just sat there in the comfortable silence. Izumi knew Tamaki was still awake by how his thumb mindlessly rubbed against the skin of her waist, where her shirt had ridden up gently. Tamaki knew Izumi was away from how she thoughtlessly played with his figures with her free hand. They just stayed like that, even as the hours passed and the sun started to rise.
Neither of them spoke; they just rested gently on each other, watching the sun rise. About 2.5 hours before classes would start, Izumi was the 1st to move, looking up at Tamaki with dry eyes and tear-stained red cheeks. Tamaki looked down at her with simple dry eyes and red cheeks with tear stains.
Neither spoke, just looked each other in the eyes for a long moment before Tamaki leaned down and gently, slowly, so she could pull away, barely kissed her. Izumi let her eyes flutter closed, and she leaned in, adding a bit of pressure to the gentle, feather-like kiss. Tamaki kissed her more deeply, then pulled her closer into his lap.
They kissed deep and slow for a long time before breaking for a pause and just stared at each other for a long moment before kissing again. They kissed deeper, yet never taking the kiss too far. Both couldn't help but find comfort in these gentle, deep, and slow kisses. They didn't stop for a long time before they pulled about.
It was Tamaki who broke the silence, looking at Izumi softly. "Will... Will... Well, will you go out with me?" He asked hesitantly, nervously, and shyly.
Izumi blushed but nodded. "Yeah... I love to go out with you, Senpai." She said softly, gently, her eyes soft as she leaned into him, resting her head on him.
He smiled softly, his arms wrapping around her protectively, his head leaning back and resting gently on the giant electric unit. Both their eyes fluttered closed, and they would fall asleep, missing that day of classes, but neither minded.
