Work Text:
“got your text, what do you want?” nanami walked through your dorm room door wearing his typical school uniform with a baggy jacket and some black worn out converse on his feet.
you were sitting on the side of your bed, uniform still on, as you heard footsteps near your door. your lips automatically turned into a soft smile at the sight of him, looking so annoyed that he had come all the way to you. but you knew it was all an act.
“well… i saved some money and got this eyeshadow palette! isn’t it cute?” the palettes was sliver as the inside included nine shades placed into small square plates, most being shimmery, two shades being deep, darker colors, and one shade a beautiful ghost white.
you held up the palette so he could get a better glimpse of it.
“so? you called me all the way here for this..?” nanami gave you this annoyed look, like he’d rather be doing something more productive than looking at a palette. but he already had an idea of what you were trying to accomplish.
“yup.. because guess what?” you stared at nanami with an expression some may call a bit too happy.
“um.. wha-“
“im testing this palette on you! i mean, you do that emo, punk stuff all the time so what’s the problem?” all nanami could do is blankly stare at your face.
“your not letting me go until you put that eyeshadow on me huh.” nanami had accepted his fate as he walked towards you. you exclaimed, bouncing of your bed as you guided him to sit on the floor with you.
“waitwait, let me get a clip so your little bang isn’t blocking your eye and a mirror… and a brush”
you walked towards a drawer filled with adorable clips in all kinds of shades and sizes. you dig through them, finding a black clip with a tiny skull at the end, perfect for nanami. you close the drawer back as you grab your mirror with an handle and your makeup brush and sat with nanami on the wooden floor.
“okok, now ima put this clip in your hair, k?” nanami nods his head, following you with his eyes as you lift his bang and tuck it behind his ear, placing the clip into his blond locks.
“you better not make me look stupid.” you put your pointer finger against your lips, signaling him to shush.
“you gotta wait a minute, i know you trust me.” you pick up the palette, raising the lid open, finally seeing the beautiful details engraved into the shades.
“look how pretty that looks nanami.” you turn the palette towards him as he continued to nod his head. you grab the eyeshadow brush as you eyes instantly dart to the darkest shade, a deep black, carefully circling the brush around in the deep pigment. you tap the handle on the lid, getting the excess off.
“now close one of your eyes while i work my magic.” nanami slyly snickers at your sentence, shutting one of his eyes like you’d asked. the color with nanamis flushed skin matched perfectly, the eyeshadow drawing more attention to his hazel eyes.
“does it look ok so far?”
“yeahyeah, im trying to replicate how you usually do it, to be honest i don’t know if its looks right.” you covered nanamis entire eyelid with the eyeshadow, meanwhile when nanami does his eyeshadow, he only works on his waterline to his under eye. as soon as he heard the words “i don’t know if it looks right” he preyed in his head, hoping you didn’t make him look too bad.
“k, now look up the the ceiling for me.” he looked up as you applied the shade on the fat of his under eye, sliding the brush left and right and patting.
“ok, im done using the black color. wanna try one more?” you showed nanami the palette once more so let can see his options. nanami opened his shut eye as he squinted and leaned forward to see the rest of the shades.
“uh, you don’t mind if i… test one on my arm? just wanna see if they’ll look right.”
“oh of course!” you swiftly hand nanami the palette as he pushed his way too big jacket sleeve up. he softly rubbed his middle finger into one of the more shimmery shades and gilded it onto his relatively skinny arm. he tilted his arm to analyze how the shade complemented his skin tone.
“do this shade.” he pointed to the shade he wanted to use as he handed the palette back to you.
“you acted like you didn’t want me to do this,” you say as you dipped into the final shade your using. “but you sure do look a bit more excited than usual.” nanami was caught by surprise by your comment, hiding his face with his hand as you saw his chipped black nail polish on his nails.
“uh- shut up.” you chucked seeing him so flustered.
“ok, now close your eye again. gonna try something up here.” you dab the brush in the middle of nanamis eyelid as you tried to make a ombré effect. you then moved to the corner of his eye as you applied the shade there also.
“im done!” you throw your hands up in excitement of how surprisedly well you did.
“can i see it now?” nanami was eager to see the results. did you do excellent? did you do terrible? who knows.
“i haven’t even done your other eye.. be patient, im almost done, k?” nanami rubbed his eyeshadow free eye as he nodded.
“ahhh! i think it looks so good nanami!” you picked up the mirror laying on the floor, passing it to nanami. “sooo.. how’d i do?”
nanami stared into the mirror, removing the skulled clip holding his bang away from his face and laying it onto the floor. he fixed his bang, turning his head so he can see the different angles. his lips curled into a soft smug look.
“haha! i can tell you like it, you don’t even have to say anything.” you giggle as a small snicker escaped from his mouth.
“i was skeptical, but it looks nice. different then what i would go for, but nice.” he handed the mirror back to you as he stood up, stretching. you checked your phone to see the time, and seeing that it was a bit late, you assumed nanami was going back to his dorm to rest.
“well, it’s getting pretty late, you should probably wash that off and rest for tomorrow.”
“yeah, your right.” he straightened his outfit as he walked towards your dorm door, opening it as the cool air from the vents hit his face.
“you know nanami,” you rise up, dashing over to him before he leaves your sight. “i think you would look cute if i did more looks on you sometime.” you say slyly as a blush appears on your cheeks. he turned around, surprised that you’d made such an offer.
“oh uh- yeah- definitely yeah.” a blush instantly grew on his face, covering his mouth with the sleeve of his jacket. there was a moment of awkward silence, the air feeling a bit thicker.
“soo.. see you in class tomorrow?”
“see you tomorrow.”
