Painting - Larry Johnson x Reader

"Nope! Thats it! I can't do it. I am SO terrible at painting." You say if frustration, putting your paint brush down and crossing your arms.

You hear Larry laugh from his easel. You hear him but his brush down and come next to you. "What are you even talking about? It looks fine to me. I can't even see where you messed up." He said also folding his arms.

You rolled your eyes. "Right here!" You say pointing to the line that you accidentally bumped your hand on. You frown and look at him. "Why are we even doing this? I'm not even meant for the stick figure life." You say, pouting.

He laughs a bit. "Do I have to go over it again? The town is holding a art contest, I need to win! It's what I've wanted for the longest time, and you're my good, supporting friend by painting with me." He says confidently he drapes his arm over your shoulders.

You groan. "Can't Sal be the supportive friend for once?" He shakes his head. "Nope." He says, staring at your art. "Why not?" You ask, looking at him.

He shrugs. "Because I hang out with him all of the time. When do I ever hang out with you?" He looks over at you. He had a good point. Ever since you guys had started high school; the only think you could think about were your grades. You stayed in your room studying for the littlest things.

You sigh and look at Larry in the eyes. "You're right. I'm sorry. I'll continue to paint with you.... even if I'm TERRIBLE at it." You smirk, and he does as well. "Come on. That mistake is easily fixable." He says. "Yeah. Okay. Why don't you show me how to then?"

He shrugs "okay, I will" He says before going behind you, he reaches in front of you and grabs your brush. With his arms around your sides he holds your painting with one hand and goes over your mistake with your brush.

You know that he was trying to be friendly, but your cheeks shot red. You couldn't concentrate on what he was trying to show you at all. You feel his breath hit your ear as he concentrates on fixing it.

You hold your breath, hoping it would calm down your pounding heart beat. "Are you paying attention (Y/n)?.... (Y/n)?" He says pulling away a little.

"BATHROOM! BE RIGHT BACK!" You shout while wiggling out of his grip and running out of his room. You run to the bathroom and look at yourself in the mirror.

You had always had a little crush on Larry. You were always too afraid to tell him. You look take deep breaths calming yourself down before walking back out. You open the door to Larry's room and see that he's back at his easel, working on whatever he was working on.

You move to your painting, making sure not to make too much noise. You clear your throat. "That's for showing me how to fix my mistake. I always learn so much when I'm with you." You say trying to get rid of the awkward atmosphere that you knew you were the only one feeling. "You're welcome. Any time." He responds nonchalantly.

You pick up your brush and scrunch up your nose trying to concentrate even though you knew it was no use. You sigh. "Is something wrong (y/n)?" You hear from Larry's easel.

You think for a minute. "Larry? You say biting your lip. "Yeah (y/n)?" He asks still painting. You look over to him. It's now or never. "Do you have a crush on someone?" You blurt out, blushing deeply.

He drops his paintbrush and looks at you. "W-what do you mean by that?" He asks looking you directly in the eyes. "Well you know." You say holding your arm in your hand. "When you get excited every time this person talks to you. When you feel like there is a part of you missing whenever they're away. When you feel butterflies in your stomach every time you touch this person. T-that kind of thing." You say looking back up at him in the eye. "Do you feel that way with anyone?" You ask with pleading eyes. "H-ha... um... I uh.... I don't know, do you." He asks sounding quite uncertain.

You shrug trying to play it off cool. "You know... y-yeah." You say blushing deeper. "Well, who makes you feel that way?" He says looking at you sounding very serious. "I asked you first!" You say defensively. "Alright. Don't worry I think I know a way to solve this." He says. "And how would that be?" You reply back. "Rock paper scissors." You two would almost always settle things like this.

You were hesitant but nodded. You lifted your arms, and Larry did as well. You looked at him, unsure. But you chant together anyways. "Rock paper scissors!" You look at your option. You had went with paper. You look a little further to see Larry had chosen rock!

You mentally fist pumped and smiled wildly. You look up to him to see a grim look on his face. "So Larry boy. Who was it?" You ask a little too happily. Larry scratches the back of his head and it takes him a minute to respond.

"The person that always with out a shadow of a doubt makes me feel the ways you described.... was you." He said, his voice shaking a bit. You gasp in surprise. You had never suspected he would say your name!

He continues. "Every time I'm around you, you make me forget about my problems. I never have any trouble talking to you about things. I feel like I'm going to explode every time you get too close to me. You don't have to do anything with this information that I gave you, but-"

you couldn't listen to him talk anymore. You instincts kicked in, you stood on your tippy toes and kissed him square on his lips. He pulls back a little in response, but pushes back in when he realizes what's happening. It doesn't take him much time before he takes control of this kiss.

He grabs your hips and pushes you back into the easel hat was holding his painting. You couldn't care less at the moment. You wrap your arms around his neck, making it more passionate. After a few seconds like this you both pull back for air. You breath deeply smiling at him like a goof. He smiles back. "I have a crush on you too" You say firmly.

He laughs and hugs you. After a few seconds you gasp and move out of the way, looking at Larry's destroyed and smeared painting. "Oh my go- Larry I'm so so sorry." You say putting your hands up to your mouth in horror Larry just shrugs.

"I don't need to win the painting contest. I already have what I've wanted for the longest time." He smiles at you and you smile back, giving him a peck on the cheek.
