(Makoto's PoV)

Fujisaki bursted into crying. They hugged me and cried onto my chest.

I began to rub circles around their back.

"There, there. It's ok, I'm here for you," I said

(Small time skip)

Fujisaki hiccuped as they dried their tears.

"Th-thank you, I need that," they said.

"It's alright," I said.

Fujisaki went to sit on bed and patted a spot next to them. Giving me a sign that I should sit next to them.

I proceeded to do so.

"I haven't been honest with you...or with anyone really...except Mondo since we're childhood best friends," they started.

They began to pick at their nails.

I heard that picking your nails is bad for you so I place one hand on their hands to stop them.

But I did so in a kind manner.

Fujisaki took a deep breath.

"You may have already know due to them but...I'm not a girl. I'm actually a boy," they said.

"I-I'm sorry if you no longer want to be friends with me. I lied, I'm sorry!" They squeaked.

"..."

They were trembling as they were waiting for my response.

"Pronouns?"

"Huh?"

"I'm not mad. I just want to know what pronouns you use," I said.

"I mainly just use he/him but I'm also thinking of using the neo pronouns of Bun/Bunself," bun explained.

"Those are some nice pronouns," I smiled.

He blushed.

"Y-you're not mad at me?" Bun asked.

"No. I'm sure you had a reason to cross dress and I'm not here to judge. Even if you did lie, not all lies are bad. Some lies are meant to help others or the liar themselves. I don't care that you lied to me about this. You had no malicious intent of cross dressing. I care for you Fujisaki," I explained.

"I...that's one of the most kindest things that someone has said to me that wasn't my parents or Mondo," Fujisaki said.

"Hug?" I asked, stretching out my arms.

Fujisaki embrace me and we hugged for a while.

"What time is it?" He asked.

"Crap, it's evening. Everyone should be returning to their dorms by now. Unless they're willing to stay out," I explained.

"Guess you'll also be heading over to your dorm," Fujisaki sighed.

"Actually...you sound like you'll need company for tonight so can I stay here? Just for tonight?" I asked.

"Sure. There's enough space here," bun replied.

There were some pajamas in the drawers so I grabbed a top and some pants and went to the shower room to change.

I came back out to see Fujisaki, already changed into his pajamas, on his bed, crisscross and on his laptop.

"Hey," I walked up to bun.

"Hey," bun slightly waved.

"What are you looking at?" I asked.

"Just checking the calendar. I'm just bored," he showed me on his laptop.

"Cool...so.................since there is nothing else to do, should we sleep now?" I asked.

"Yeah I think we should. Umm I'm not sure where you'll sleep though," Fujisaki said.

"I could sleep on the floor," I muttered.

"But that would be rude of me. I can't have you sleeping on the floor," he said.

"Then...should we share the bed?" I asked, slightly blushing.

"Oh....ummm sure....," Fujisaki replied.

He put away his laptop and got under the covers.

I got in next to him.

This is a little awkward, I thought.

Of course, I'm only planning on sleeping and not doing anything else. So any dirty thoughts must be gone from whoever is thinking about it!

So why am I feeling this way?

"Hey Naegi. Can I ask you for a favor?" Fujisaki asked, softly.

"Yeah, what is it?" I asked.

"Can we keep what happened between us? I don't want others to worry and I'm not quite comfortable with sharing that I'm a boy with the others yet," he explained.

"Yeah. When you're ready to share your secret, I'll be there at your side," I vowed.

"Thank you," bun rested buns eyes and I could buns breathing slow down to a sleep breathing.

I do care for him. I don't want him seeing hurt.

Goodnight Fujisaki, I thought and held him a little closer to him before closing my eyes.

[Time skip to morning]

I opened my eyes slowly and saw that I was not in my dorm.

What time is it? I thought.

I felt someone stir next to me and I saw that it was Fujisaki.

"Good morning," I scooted back so bun could sit up.

"Morning," he yawned while rubbing the sleepiness out of his eye.

Cute, I thought before realizing what I just thought of and blushed.

"W-we should get changed and go get some breakfast before school starts. It's Friday today," I said.

"Ok," Fujisaki grabbed buns clothes and went to changed in the shower room.

In the corner of my eye, I spotted a red string and it was leading in the shower room where Fujisaki was at.

Oh. Oh........did I found my soulmate!? I thought in a jolt.

Maybe that's why I was feeling this way.

Did I catch feels for him? I thought.

I felt my face heating up when I thought this.

Oh this is too early. We're just friends for now but I think I have fallen in love with him. What should I do? I thought.

Maybe I could ask Kirigiri and Aoi for advice.

They can help me out!

"Is everything alright?" Fujisaki suddenly asked.

I fell off the bed in surprise.

"Are you ok?" He cried.

"Yeah I'm ok. You just surprised me, that's all," I assured bun.

"Ok," Fujisaki said.

I went to the shower room to change into my clothes and after I was done, we left Fujisaki's dorm.

Thankfully, no one was in the hallway as we left.

"Hey Fujisaki. Can I ask you something?" I asked.

"Hmmm?" He hummed, questioning.

"Since yesterday we didn't have a whole lot of time to hang out, d-do you think we can hang out again today?" I asked.

"Sure," he nodded.

I was not expecting him to say yes, I thought.

"Well after school let's hang out at some place. Maybe that arcade next to that bakery?" I asked.

"Sounds good," he smiled.

Why are you so cute? I thought, slightly blushing.

If I had a dollar for every time I blush around him, well I didn't kept count but I would probably have a lot.

Well now to find Kirigiri and Aoi for advice.

A/N: it's been too long since I last update this. I was writing in other books and I lost motivation to work on a lot of my Danganronpa books.

But now you Wisps get this chapter. Will there be constant updates like last time? I can't promise that but I promise you that this isn't abandoned or anything.

Also I hope that I'm using neo pronouns correctly. Sorry if I didn't >_<

Cya in the next one -Flare
