Notes: Thanks go out to my beta Kat for pinking this. This was written for allbingo's January bingo and the 12 days of ficmas.
Sigurd looked up from his lunch at his classmate and swallowed. He didn’t know what hit him, but all of a sudden he felt a strange mix of happiness and fear. It also felt like a million and one butterflies decided to live in his stomach, not to mention his heart was racing and his mouth went drier than the Sahara desert. He’s looking at me… And he’s got the bluest eyes I’ve ever seen and the whitest smile and he’s cute and he’s… Oh hell! Say something, Stupid!! Sigurd blinked owlishly at his classmate.
“Siggy? Are okay?” Ulf said. Even though they only had a couple of classes together, Ulf liked his shy and bookish classmate. He thought it was cool Sigurd liked anime and had spent a year living in Japan while his parents taught school over there. He thought it was even cooler that he went to America and Disneyland one summer because some cousin got married there or something like that. Sigurd was so soft spoken that there were times when he couldn’t understand him, but that did not matter. Ulf had a massive crush on him and lately he had a feeling that Sigurd returned his affection, although Ulf was half afraid that was just wishful thinking. So, he spent as much time around his classmate as he could, grateful that Sigurd did not seem to mind in the least.
“You okay, Siggy?” Ulf repeated, hoping he would get an answer this time.
“You two are pathetic, you know that?” Erik, a fellow classmate and Ulf’s friend, said. “Really! You’re like one of those silly animes you like, Ulf.” He laughed. “Any minute now, Siggy’s going to be like ‘sempai noticed me!’ And you’re going to take his hands in yours, Ulf, and the two of you’ll gaze longingly in each other’s eyes and blush. If you two aren’t careful, the girls in the anime club’ll find out and they’ll write some cheesy fanfiction about you two.”
“Real people fic,” Sigurd and Ulf chorused. Ulf breathed a quick sigh of relief that the object of his affections was alright.
Erik laughed as he got up from the table. He gathered his garbage and put it on the tray. “I’ve got a test next period, so I’m off to the library. Catch you later, Ulf, Siggy.”
“Bye!” Ulf reached for his water bottle and drank. “So you want to hang out after school?”
Sigurd smiled at him. The butterflies in stomach were still fluttering around at a mad pace, but the thought that Ulf liked him and the resulting euphoria, made him hardly notice. “Okay.” While they spent the remainder of their lunch period trying to discuss their favorite anime, Sigurd was more focused on getting together after school. Much to his delight, so was Ulf.
