week 05, wednesday, late evening, hinata's closet
[No dead bodies to be found here! Though there might be some hiding behind the coats or under the snacks, who knows? It's hard to tell since he makes no move to turn on a light in the closet. Clearly he must be hiding something! Considering the only light once he closes the door behind them is what little leaks under the door and around the frame.
But... now what? Can she hear his heart beating furiously in the darkness? Hopefully not... right? Super hearing wasn't listed on her profile, he thinks. He's pretty sure, anyway. It's hard to think about stuff like that right now.]
So, um...
[What little he'd had to drink certainly hadn't been enough to calm him down in this kind of situation. At least in the darkness, no one can see him blush.]
Did you, uh... did you want to play...?

no subject
[ Absolute lie, she'd be impressed and play lbr. ]
But before we smooch there's actually something I wanna say while I've got you alone and there's no chance for escape.
[ Which sounds way creepier than she meant it to wow. ]
no subject
Then reflexively stiffens, running through all the negative things she might want to say. "I'm hella gay," maybe, or "you're definitely not someone I want to spend any time with, ever, once this sleepover is over, I'm outtie." Something like that. He has to swallow against a suddenly dry mouth, just nodding.]
...Sure. Go ahead. I mean... sure.
[Just let him down gently??]
no subject
[ Deep breath. Ok, no backing down now. ]
Well ok, this is probs stupid obvs cause the whole town seems to know-- I mean it's a goddamb free space on booty bingo, "gee who does Roxy like? trick question we all know that!"
[ Facepalm. Who lets her talk. At least he can't see how red her face is. ]
What I mean is I like... like you. [ pause ] Ugh I sound like a twelve year old. I mean, if there was a nice restaurant here I would so take you there and grate cheese on your salad in a romantic fashion while classy music plays in the background. Cause I like you. A lot.
Er, but it's cool if you... Don't like me like that. [ Fades off. ]
no subject
But he's also a good boy, so he just hums when she facepalms, waiting for her to continue more than a little anxiously. It's... pretty obvious he had no idea where she was going with that, because even once she says like him, he doesn't quite get it, brows furrowing as his lips part. And for a few seconds, he can't actually say anything at all, heart lurching sharply in his chest.]
H-huh?!
[Yes, that's exactly how to acknowledge a confession, Hinata. You've got this. One smooth operator.]
M-me?
[If he thought he was blushing before, it's nothing compared to how hot his cheeks feel now as he stares toward her, wishing he could read her face more in the semi-darkness. He sounds... almost afraid to believe that, honestly. Not disappointed, not upset, not even rejecting her, but honest, tentative wonder. Apparently Faize isn't the only one who can be oblivious to a girl's feelings.]
You're... not joking, right? I mean... Inaba didn't put you up to this...?
no subject
Well, that's. Not a rejection?? Is the rejection coming, she's expecting it. ]
Wwwwow, I'm almost offended. Do you really think I'd do that? [ p...ause... ] Ok, don't answer that. But if Inaba put me up to any shit like this, you know it'd be like. Mid-trial, both of us as suspects, five dead bodies behind the curtain or some shit.
[ Double facepalm. ]
Ugh, I'm sorry, I'm dumb. Just forget I said anything.
no subject
[He kind of does think that someone else could put her up to it, but proooobably that she wouldn't do it to him on her own.
But wait, shit, if it's not a joke, then this is a legitimate confession. And he has no idea what to do. He's never... had anyone interested in him, that he knows of?]
N-no, I don't... I don't want to forget it! [Ah, his voice cracked... embarrassing.] I just... I really like you, too. I just, you know, you're so... you're really cool, and I'm...
[The Bagel. He thought he had a better shot at Faize than Roxy. Because he's fucking dumb.]
no subject
Did he just say he likes her too?? Holy shit, is this legit rn, she can't even-- "You're really cool" Sorry, hold on, she just has to snort at that. ]
Trust me, you are def cooler than me by like a gazillion. Do not even kid. My cool score is like. Negative 5.
no subject
[He laughs, because he really still just... can't believe it. Having his feelings reciprocated is entirely new to him -- being confessed to at all is incredibly new to him, enough that he has no idea how he's supposed to proceed from here.]
I'm... really glad. I didn't think you, um, felt the same way about me.
[Seriously, what part of him seems cool right now? He's always wanted to be cool, and here's the girl he likes, not only telling him that she thinks he's cool, but that she likes him, too.]
So, um...
[Now what?]
no subject
[ This is definitely a first for her too. She's used to rejection. Well. Rejecting her own ass, mostly, but. ]
Well, I guess it's a good thing we got locked in this closet.
[ Laughs. Apparently this party really was your greatest idea ever, Hinat. ]
So... We have about four or five minutes left probs, so we could either... make out or eat snacks.
no subject
[Seeing how much of a loser she can be, anyway. He laughs again and just nods, because yeah, what luck, indeed. This is a much better closet lock-in than his earlier one with Faize, anyway.
Why does she have to leave it up to him, though?? He knows what he'd rather do, but that sounds really desperate to just come out and say, right? Hm.]
Well... I mean, as hosts of the party, maybe we shouldn't break our own rules for these games, you know? And since, you know, it's a traditional Earth game, [poor Faize,] we shouldn't break the rules... It'd set a bad example.
[For this game that no one can see them playing, in the closet. He's laughing a little too still, because even he knows how ridiculous that sounds.]
no subject
Oh, that's right! [ reaches out to slide her arms around his neck and move closer. not that they aren't probably smooshed together anyway because closet ] We'd be such despicable party hosts if we just wantonly flaunted our own Earth game rules, wouldn't we?
[ You could have just said "make out" but the ridiculous version of that works too. Time to just casually get up on her tip-toes to aim for his mouth with her mouth, which is harder than you'd think because it's dark ok. Forgive her if she misses. ]
no subject
But listen, he can't just come out and say that, it sounds way too desperate! Joking about it and having her initiate it seems much safer. When her arms go around his neck, he leans in, trying to meet her halfway. It's a bit of a false start in the dark when his lips brush against the corner of her lips, but it only takes him a second to readjust to catch her lips in a firm, insistent kiss.
He doesn't know what to do with his hands though?! He's never done anything like this before, and with her arms up around his neck, it's going to be hard to reach her cheek. Instead, after a beat, his hands fall to lightly grasp her waist, trying to tug her flush against him.]
