The Red Roses (Amajiki Tamaki x fem! Reader)

Chapter 11 ~ Confession

I grabbed my boots and ran out to the backyard, wearing nothing but my pajamas.

No coat, no hat, scarf, gloves. Nothing.

"Y-Y/N, y-you'll catch a c-cold!"

"Oh, come on! Don't be a party pooper!"

Tamaki frowned at my remark, clearly not content woth the idea of running around in snow in your pajamas.

"But…"

He didn't even get to properly start off his sentence when i threw a snowball at him, hitting him in the shoulder.

His mouth dropped and he looked done.

"Come on, Tamaki!"

"O-oh, you're gonna get it now!"

Our laughter filled the cold night, disturbing the quiet atmosphere.

We did everything, from a fierce snowball fight to making snow angels.

We even made a (very tipsy looking) snowman!

After about 40 minutes of running around in the snow, we were exhausted.

Before going inside, we sat down onto the back porch, gasping for air.

"God… Im completely soaked!" All of my clothes were drenched after i rolling around in the snow for so long.

Thank God i changed out of my pretty new dress.

"Y-yeah… O-oh crap, I-i have n-nothing t-to wear!"

Oops. We didn't think about that, huh…

The last traces of laughter escaped our lips, and we went quiet.

I enjoyed it. Sitting here, side by sode with Tamaki, the snow falling on the both of us, both wearing a dopey smile.

"You know, whoever is bringing me roses must have a hard time now, considering it's snow."

"R-roses are actually p-pretty easy to keep in snow, y-you just-"
Tamaki cut himself off, placing a hand over his mouth.

"Oh? And since when were you an expert on roses?"

"I, uh, well I-i…"

I started to walk closer to him, or better say crawl.

"Just kidding."

"O-oh…"

"Come on, lets get inside before we catch a cold. "

A sigh escaped my lips, when i heard Tamaki… laugh a bit.

I turned to see him on his knees, looking at the snow in front of him.

"I remember… crying… when i couldn't f-find you… And y-you…"

A smile spread across my lips… so he remembers.

"Come on, we'll get sick if we stay out too long."

I turned the heating up, and prayed to have enough money to pay the bills fpr this month.

Thankfully, Tamaki had leggings under his pants that didn't soak trough, and i just gave him one of my convert t-shirts that was five sizes too big for me.

It was even big for him.

Under normal circumstances, i would have gotten a normal sized t-shirt, but they all got sold out. Not to mention that there weren't sizes smaller than M to begin with.

Well, a shirt that's XXL is better than no shirt, right?

A fuzzy feeling rose in my stomach when i realized that, for the first time after ten years - he didn't stutter when talking to me.
