Komaeda and Hajime have been growing closer over the past 3 years. They were hanging out most of the time occasionally inviting Chiaki to join them. Most of the free time they had was spent in the presence of the other. Valentine's day was coming up and Hajime wanted to show Komaeda how much he meant to him. He was planning to confess to Komaeda on Valentine's day, but he just wasn't sure how he would go about doing it. Hajime put a lot of research on the best ways to confess and after a long time of searching, he found it, the perfect way he could confess to Komaeda.

Hajime started to put his plan in order. He knew Komaeda better than anyone because, for one, Komaeda never talked to anyone else for fear of being a burden, and two, Hajime was the only one that Komaeda felt comfortable around. Hajime knew how much Komaeda loved to watch the stars at night before he went to bed. He also knew that Komaeda was not a big fan of going outside when the sun was out because he burns easily.

Hajime was going to take Komaeda to the cafe near their apartments which Komaeda loved because they had bagels. Then he was going to take him to the roof of the apartments where he would have already set up a blanket with some pillows for stargazing. And finally, when the stars came out Hajime would confess to Komaeda and if everything goes well Komaeda would accept his confession. So he knew that this would be a perfect plan to confess to Komaeda.

Komaeda, on the other hand, was dreading the thought of Valentine's day because every single year something bad would happen. Hajime knew this because Komaeda would always suggest that he would stay home when Chiaki and Hajime would invite him to whatever they had planned for the occasion. Hajime always felt sad when Komaeda didn't come and Chiaki noticed this and would always talk to him about it making sure he knew that it wasn't his fault and that Komaeda was just working through something and needed some time to himself.

Chiaki was overjoyed when Hajime told her about his plan to confess to Komaeda. She wanted to help him with whatever she could wanting to make this Valentine's day special to Komaeda and Hajime. After a while of him saying that he could handle it, he eventually gave in to her pestering and let her make some sweet for when they went to the roof.

Chiaki gladly accepted and went to find out what Komaeda's favorite sweet was. She went around asking all of the other people in her class and most of them said they only ever saw him eat bagels and drink soda. Chiaki sighed before she had an idea for the sweet. Chiaki new that Komaeda would love this and it would make Hajime happy so she went to work.

There was only a little more preparation they had to do before they were fully ready, but Valentine's day came before they even knew it. Hajime felt nervous about the whole thing and was worried he would mess something up and make Komaeda hate him.

Chiaki laughed at his and reassured him that Komaeda would never hate him regardless of what he did. Hajime still felt worried but felt better about it knowing that after today Komaeda could finally be his.

The school day was a blur for the trio of friends they all were either too excited or too worried to pay attention. Komaeda was walking home with a frown worried that something bad would happen to make Hajime hate him.

He hated his luck more than anything... It always made people avoid him... It always took people away from him... Komaeda felt tears starting to fall down his face as he slowly opened his apartment door only to find Hajime standing in his room looking at him with a smile on his face.

"Hajime?" Komaeda asked jumping a bit seeing him in his room. It did make sense that he could get into his room they did exchange keys a while ago... Not that Komaeda knew why Hajime wanted to get closer to him and trust him with the key to his room, but it made Hajime happy so of course, he accepted.

"Komaeda? Are you ok?" Hajime said walking closer to him before putting his hands on his cheeks to wipe away his tears making more tears fall from Komaeda's eyes.

"I'm just so happy that you wanted to see my pitiful self," Komaeda said with a sniffle making Hajime pull the taller male into a hug holding the back of his head with his hand. His hand moved up to tangle into Komaeda's surprisingly, super soft hair.

"Komaeda..." Hajime said not liking how the taller male thought how he only wanted to get close to him because he pitied him...

"I wanted to see you today because I wanted to hang out with you today." Hajime started pulling out of the embrace to look at Komaeda's face.

"But-" Komaeda started, but Hajime cut him off before he could say the self-deprecating thought.

"No, you can't refuse and don't apologize because I want to do this," Hajime said putting his finger to Komaeda's lips to silence him. Komaeda kept his mouth shut and just nodded at Hajime making him pull his hand away making Komaeda flustered by the action.

"We are going to go to the Cafe that you really like. Ok?" Hajime asked taking Komaeda's hand in his making him more flustered. Komaeda was a person to be easily flustered and Hajime knew this but he was hoping that by doing this Komaeda would take the hint.

Komaeda gave him a nod with a wobbly hard to read smile on his face while his eyes looked to his feet. Hajime gave his hand a squeeze and he started to walk to the cafe. He felt comfortable with Komaeda's hand in his. He felt complete.

They made it to the cafe and Hajime pulled out Komaeda's seat for him to sit down making him whisper a quiet I'm sorry before taking his spot in the seat. Hajime just gave him a supportive smile trying to silently let him know he didn't do anything wrong. Komaeda looked back at him before flushing and looking away from Hajime's gaze.

When the waiter came and Hajime ordered for both of them and felt a little worried and guilty because of how quiet Komaeda was being. He slowly put his hand on top of Komaeda's hand on the other side of the small table intertwining his fingers with Komaeda. Komaeda jumped at the motion and looked at Hajime confused. Hajime just smiled and placed a kiss on his knuckles making Komaeda gasp making himself more embarrassed and flustered. He moved his other hand to cover his mouth to try and hide his blush and conceal any other noises that left his mouth immediately losing trust in his voice from the outburst earlier.

"Here is your order." The waiter said placing the dishes on the table. Komaeda always ordered two bagels and a blueberry shake and Hajime ordered himself a sandwich with orange juice.

"Thank you." Komaeda thanked the waiter after calming himself down giving Hajime's hand a squeeze showing him that he liked holding his hand.

"Of course, enjoy!" The waiter said before leaving with a smile. They ate while having a conversation of stories of when they were younger before Hajime checked his phone and noticed that it was time for part 2.

"Komaeda, I wanted to take you somewhere else," Hajime said after they finished and he paid the waiter. Komaeda gave him a confused glance. Although Komaeda didn't say anything, Hajime knew that he must be surprised that he still wanted to spend time with him. Hajime knew it was useless to try and tell him he was wrong because he had so many times and Komaeda would still get surprised.

"Oh, where are we going?" He asked while Hajime slid his hand into his.

"It's a surprise," Hajime said lifting Komaeda's hood over his eyes before he took his hand back into his to guide him. Komaeda gasped when he was suddenly blinded but let Hajime lead him.

Hajime took his up to the roof slowly making sure that he didn't hit anything or trip. When they successfully got to the roof with not incidents he lifted Komaeda's hood. Komaeda immediately gasped seeing the scene in front of him.

Hajime had prepared the roof before they went to dinner. He put fairy lights around a spot on the roof with a blanket and pillows and flowers were placed around it. The flowers were a variety of colors, green, blue, purple, and pink. Komaeda loved these colors and absolutely loved flowers. His mom would always plant flowers in their front yard and he loved when they bloomed and he could sit in the front lawn and just smell the sweetness of the flowers.

Komaeda felt Hajime pull his hand and move him over to the blankets. Hajime sat next to Komaeda on the blanket and grabbed another blanket and wrapped it around him and Komaeda. It was a little chilly seeing as it was still cold from winter. Komaeda would get cold easily and Hajime knew this from all the time he spent with him. Komaeda always wore a jacket all the time, in the summer, in the spring, and he would still feel cold. Being next to Hajime made Komaeda feel warm and safe. He never felt like this very often seeing as he is alone most of the time because he avoids most people for fear of hurting them with his luck. It's not that he didn't like being around them he was just mainly scared of hurting them and the guilt of them having to deal with him...

Hajime moved his hand back into Komaeda's and pulled it close to his chest. Komaeda could feel his heartbeat and smiled while his cheeks turned a faint pink color. He felt Hajime rest his head on his shoulder making him flinch a little at first before he leaned his head on top of his.

"Komaeda I wanted to ask. Why do you always insist on being along on any holiday including Valentine's day?" Hajime asked breaking the silence. Komaeda tried to pull his hand out of Hajime's grasp only to make Hajime's grip tighten slightly.

"Well, if you want to hear my worthless answer, then I'll tell you." Komaeda paused taking in a shaky breath before speaking again.

"When I was younger my parents would always take me somewhere on Valentine's day and we would spend the whole day together just the three of us... before they died years later on this day... we were leaving on a trip to a resort for the occasion and that's the day they lost their lives... because of my luck," Komaeda said before he looked down letting his tears fall into his hands.

"I had no idea..." Hajime said before he moved closer to Komaeda to pull him into a hug. Komaeda silently sobbed into his shoulder while Hajime whispered reassurances into his ear. When his sobs calmed down Hajime moved away from him for a moment before he heard the door creak behind them. They both looked back and saw Chiaki standing in the doorway. Chiaki walked over to them with a box in her arms making Hajime smile at her. She smiled seeing them so close and placed the cake on the table before leaving as quietly as she came.

"What's in the box?" Komaeda asked turning hid focus back to Hajime.

"Chiaki wanted to help me prepare for this so I let her make a sweet..." Hajime whispered before he slowly grabbed the box and placed it in his lap. Komaeda looked at the box curiously making Hajime giggle a bit before he opened it.

She made a small cake with happy Valentine's day written on it with blueberry ice cream in o container in the corner. Komaeda felt himself smile and it was a genuine smile. He was surprised that he could feel this happy and silently thankes Hajime for making him this happy.

"Komaeda," Hajime said looking Komaeda in the eyes.

"Yeah, Hajime?" Komaeda asked looking concerned.

"I did all of this because I wanted to tell you..." He cut himself off before he took a shaky breath cursing at himself for being so nervous.

"Hajime?" Komaeda asked taking Hajime's hand and giving it a supportive squeeze.

"I love you Komaeda." Hajime finally said looking up at Komaeda with tears threatening to fall.

"I-I," Komaeda started getting flustered again making Hajime gain back some of his confidence. He pulled Komaeda into a kiss to show him that he meant it. Komaeda flinched at first before he kissed back. Hajime moved his hands to cup Komaeda's cheeks feeling how hot they were. Komaeda calmed down after a moment and moved his hands to Hajime's neck and let them gently trace the skin there.

"I mean it Komaeda. I love you so much." Hajime said making Komaeda let some tears fall out of his eyes with a smile on his face.

"I love you too Hajime." He said pulling Hajime into a hug. Hajime let out a content sigh knowing that he could be with the one he cared about the most.

It will be you and I

Never will I let you cry

Let me be the one to hold you up

Because I want you to be strong

I love you
