Love Is Hard For A Shut-in | Nagito X Reader

39

I began my walk back towards my cabin after an eventful day of exploring the 3rd island.

I'm glad Fuyuhiko is alright :D

I humned a familiar tune and stepped inside my cabin, making sure to close the door once I step in.

I made a beeline to my bed and plopped down on it, "Waahh, I'm tired..." I felt my eyelids getting heavy as I fully embraced my sleepiness.

I walked the stairs leading to the restaurant to find everyone already eating.

Guess I overslept again...

I greeted everyone, grabbed a plate of food and sat on a vacant seat beside Nagito.

(Badump)

C'mon Y/n, it's too early in the morning to fawn over your crush!

I ate in silence as I listened in on everyone's conversation.

It's nice to eat with the accompany of others...

It was afternoon and I was laying on my bed doing absolutely nothing until I heard a knock on my door.

I lazily stood up and dragged myself towards the front to open my door.

"Oh, Hajime. What brings you here?" I greeted the brunnette.

"I had some freetime so I decided to hangout with you, is it alright?" Hajime ask.

"Hangout? Of course it's alright! Come in, come in! Sorry if it's a bit messy, I didn't expect any visitors," I nervously laughed as I picked up an empty bag of my favorite chips and threw it on the trash.

"It's alright," Hajime smiled and sat down on my bed.

The brunnette and I spent the entire afternoon watching shows on my television.

"That was fun. Thank you for having me," Hajime smiled and fished for something in his pocket, "Here, a present..."

I stared at the object in his hands.

A.... kokeshi doll?!

I looked at Hajime in the eye and placed my hands on both of his shoulders, "Are you, perhaps, Hanako-kun?!"

"Who?"

"Nothing! Haha, I'm just messing with ya!" I chuckled and took the doll from Hajime's hands.

"I've always wanted to see a Kokeshi doll in real life. Thank you for this!" I beamed at my friend.

"No problem," Hajime smiled back, "Ah, which reminds me... Your talent is being The Ultimate Shut-in, right?" I nodded in response.

"Pretty much, thought I don't understand how being a shut-in is considered as a, quote unquote, talent," I shrugged and continued to examine the doll.

"Well, I think it's pretty cool to be able to tolerate being in the same room for a long period of time. Maybe that's why Hope's Peak scouted you," You could clearly tell how much he admired Hope's Peak from the tone of his voice alone.

"Hmm, I guess so..." I stopped examining the doll and looked at Hajime with a small smile, "Thanks for making me feel better about my talent, Hajime. I hope you remember yours soon!"

"T-Thank you, Y/n. Now, if you'll excuse me," Hajime stood up and walked himself out the door.

"Bye bye!" I waved.
