Chapter Text
As Superfish lays in bed he keeps wondering what the tightness in his chest could be, he can’t get a human disease after all. After a while of spiraling he decides to cook something to get his mind off of it. He starts thinking about how DJ cooks for him and his face, then his hands, his hair, and so on. While thinking he gets the tightness and freezes. “What is this? I should probably ask DJ he might know.” And so Superfish set off to DJ’s house at midnight.
DJ sits in silence as he thinks of Superfish, headphones on but nothing playing. He starts thinking of when the potion will be done, he doesn’t want Superfish to leave him but he knows he has to. “But why can’t he just stay? Why does he have to go? Why can’t he be with me?” DJ keeps asking these questions before hearing a knock on his window. It’s Superfish floating on the other side waiting to be let in, he has a serious expression on his face and DJ knows this can’t be good. DJ opens the window and Superfish climbs in, “Hey human, there’s something I need to ask you.” DJ surprised and curious on what he needs to ask is taken aback. “Well what is it? I don’t have all night.” He said slightly giggling to himself. Superfish looks down at the ground and starts fidgeting with his sweater. “What does it mean when your chest gets tight?” Superfish said it so fast DJ almost asked him to repeat himself but he got what he said. “What do you mean? Like in what situations?.” Superfish sighs, “Whenever I’m with you or… think about you I..” He pauses but keeps going. “I get this weird feeling in my chest and my face starts to burn. What does that mean?” DJ doesn’t know what to say. Not because he doesn’t know what Superfish is talking about but because he knows what he’s talking about and what it means. They stand in silence for a few seconds before DJ breaks it, “It probably means you have feelings for me. But if that isn’t the case I need more details.” Superfish finally looks up locking eyes with DJ. “I think that is the case…”
DJ is frozen. He can feel his face burning and knows it’s probably as red as it feels and turns away from Superfish. Superfish reaches out for DJ’s hand and DJ doesn’t move, he lets Superfish grab his hand without saying anything. “Do you like me… too..?”
