Linked Paths

Arc II - Many Firsts [Chapter 4: Pandora's Box]

The final outcome, the me today who struggled for a while now, is a very desperate fellow who only thinks about banging the nerd.

Even the incident with you-know-who didn't harm my desire, on the contrary. I would love to show Deku that sex is something positive, that it feels awesome and really is the most beautiful trivia in the world.

God dammit, I want him so fucking bad!

And honestly, I haven't had such a strong craving for one specific person for a while.

As you might imagine, I can add more to the chain of causality. Desperation makes you do things. You see, I've become a 'touchy' idiot towards the nerd during the process. Meaning, I try to touch him somehow at every good opportunity. Conspicuously inconspicuous with intentional unintentionality. Of course I want to touch him badly, but I also want to test him, observe his reactions and stake out what my chances are. It goes without saying that I proceed with tact and sensitivity, since the incident with the disgusting bastard happened not so long ago.

I can't tell if he's already registered that the amount of body contact is no coincidence. But Deku has never let me know that he doesn't like it or that he feels uncomfortable with the closeness. Rather, it's the case that there are welcome changes since recently. Little signs, gestures, facial expressions and alike. Most importantly, I've noticed that Deku gives me "sneaky" peeks when we're in the locker room or communal shower together. These are that kind of glances that always end in very specific areas. I've clearly spotted him trying to catch glimpses of my chest and especially my dick. I even provoke it. For example, I shower facing him or dry myself openly and unabashedly in intimate places. I mean, need to remind him what I have to offer, right?

His reactions not only keep my oven hot but make me believe that the desire doesn't just originate from one point by now and that serious sexual tension is building up between us. However, I still need in-fact-certainty. For that, I have to confront him. I'm willing to risk more in order to finally claim him.

Today, as we travel with the whole class to the Hero Convention in Tokyo, it feels like a good opportunity to send out more, and above all clearer, signals to the nerd. This day trip to the event is mandatory for all U.A. years. And it also applies for the Shiketsu and Seijin classes. Accordingly, it's packed. Meaning sardine mode on the train. A rare occurrence. Although, I absolutely don't understand why they don't provide more carriages or run more trains for the Hero Convention, today that's more than fine with me. I shamelessly exploited these circumstances so that I could get physically close to the nerd. Of course, I also needed a bit of luck for my plan to work, but Fortuna is very kind to me, it seems.

As I had painted, Deku and I are standing away from our squad. They can't see us from their position, which is good. I don't want them to notice anything. We're standing right by the door, close together, our bodies only a few centimeters apart. Deku is leaning half against the door, half against the door frame, facing me. I'm opposite him, with my hand resting diagonally on the wall above his head. Deku's cheeks are noticeably flushed. His gaze is frozen on my chest.

If only I had a mind reading quirk.

Impossible to understand what's wrong with my brain these days, but the nerd looks delicious. No matter what he does, he can only be appealing to me, and fuck, I'm so hungry for him, it's damn spooky!

I would say, it's now high time to take a risk, expressing my intention. It's still possible that I've misinterpreted everything, and he has no sexual interest in me, but if I don't sort it out soon, I'll go crazy and won't be able to close the case for me.

Luckily, I'm anything but shy. When I want something or someone, I try and go for it. Yes, I know, there are a thousand places that would be better suited, but I like the thrill of this one, like the spiciness, the tension it promises because he can't escape me here.
