Not So Small Feelings: Takanashi Sōta

You sat in the break room of the dinner finishing up some last minute schoolwork. You had been an employee at Wagnaria! for almost a year. You had started around the same time your ex-best friend/classmate, Takanashi Sōta, had started. Yeah, he was nice but he was incredibly annoying, saying how he was the most normal person in the diner even though he was obsessed with small things! Sure you were small but you weren't as small as Popura-senpai who got mostly all of his attention when he wasn't getting pumled by Inami-San and not yelling at Kyōko your manager for eating all of the sweets and not working at all. You smashed your head on the table, facing the truth, you were definitely jealous. Your yearning for his attention was starting to become unbearable.

You watched him from afar as you took food to a customer. What made him not talk with you?! You were almost as small as Popura-senpai! Walking back to the counter you glared at the wall and huffed out wanting to see Inami harm him. Even though these were bad thoughts, you couldn't help but think them.

The restaurant was nearing closing time and people kept coming. "Welcome!" you bowed in your maid outfit to the new customers and took them to a table. Eyes were burning into your bum causing you to blush. You had the perfect hourglass figure, your other job when you weren't at school or Wagnaria was modelling. Not many people knew you were the famous model (L/N) (F/N), from (insert random magazine here). You looked entirely different without your hair and make-up done. It wasn't the best extra job but working at the restaurant didn't pay you enough for your apartment rent and necessities. "Here are the menus and you can push this buzzer when you're ready to order!" you bowed again with a bubbly smile traveled across your face as more people shuffled in. You felt eyes on you, and this time it wasn't from the guys you ushered in. You turned slowly and looked to see no one looking at you.

Thankfully an hour later the restaurant had closed. You put your school uniform back on and sat in the break room with everyone else as you all calmed down.

"I heard there was a new pervert near your neighbourhood (L/N)-chan." you jumped hearing the bluenette, Sōma. He managed to say it fairly loud, causing everyone's conversations to stop.

"And the robberies have been rising too." you sighed picking up your school bag ready to head out. "Not like I can't fend for myself or anything."

"Etto..." Popura poked your side making you squirm slightly. "If you want we could walk home together, I don't live that far from you." you smiled down slightly at you short senpai. Some of her bangs flew away from her face as you blew at her.

"You don't have to come with me senpai! It'd be a shame if something happened to you!" you smiled a bright fake smile and notice Takanashi nod his head.

"Then Katanashi-kun can walk you home!" she smiled over at him and the both of you blush at the simutaniusly.

"B-but she said she could take care of herself!" the megane pouted crossing his arms.

"Yeah! I don't need anyone protecting me!" your (E/C) orbs shot daggers at the brunette.

"You must listen to me!" Popura puffed her chest out. "You have to walk her home safely!"

"F-fine!" he fanboyed at how adorable senpai was being.

It was an awkward walk to your house. You tried making small talk but he would only answer with one word or so the conversation couldn't grow stronger. He had uttered something under his breath about his house being in this direction. This was starting to get annoying. You peaked through your hair to see him looking down at the pavement with disappointment etched into his face.

You sighed through your nose and stopped walking. Tears had somehow managed to wiggled out of your (E/C) eyes. Your normally sparkling (H/L) (H/C) hair hung over your eyes and limply down your back. He hadn't even noticed that you stopped, he had just continued walking staring down at the boring pavement like it was the new issue of your latest magazine.

"Why? Why do you hate me so much that you can't even talk with me?!" you couldn't stop the tears as you clenched both your fists by your sides.

"I-I don't hate you." he said nervously noticing how you had tears splashing the ground bellow you at a violent speed. The pent up frustration from the past year and a half was finally being expelled from your body.

"Then why didn't you stop when I stopped?! Actually don't answer that! You didn't notice me stop!" you hissed, all the pent up anger coming out of you. "Why have you been ignoring me like we didn't know each other since we were babies for the past year?! Why have you pr-pretended to have f-forgotten about me living next door?! Why have you stopped b-being my bet friend that let me cry on yo-you shoulder?!" you started chocking everything out as more tears sprinted down your face. "Why did you make me feel this way then throw me away like garbage?" you finally whispered your hands finally trying to stop your tears.

He 'tch'd you and you could feel him push his glasses up. "I had to... I didn't know what was happening to me. My insides... They they felt like they were eating themselves up every time I thought of you. I thought it was some kind of sign of hatred. So I took my distance."

"Aho!" you shrieked out and sobbed harder. A reassuring hand was soon on your chin forcing you to look up.

"I soon learned that pushing you away was a bad idea (Y/N)." he looked down chuckling with a faint blush. "It wasn't hatred that was making me like I had butterflies in my tummy. I-it was love. Ever since I found this out I've been watching you. With your new friends and at the diner. I'm sorry I left." you stood there flabbergasted. Did he just confess?! His thumb padded over your cheeks brushing away the tears carefully. "I'm willing to do anything to make these feelings, that aren't so small, to get them returned from you."

You sniffled, "E-even be my friend again?" he nodded. You had already known the answer. His love for you wasn't one-sided. You stood on your tippy toes and shared a kiss with him that changed your life forever.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I feel like these are really short. As long as you enjoy them I guess they're okay! If you haven't watched Wagnaria! I recommend it! I laughed so hard when I watched. I haven't seen it in a while and thought it'd be cool to make a one-shot for Takanashi. You can send requests to me here or on Twitter at @/AtsushiMySushi. I'll update again tomorrow!
