Cronus x Reader {Secrets}

It's hard to explain what your first kiss feels like. Maybe if I was aware it was coming I wouldn't have been so surprised. Consent every once in a while is a good idea, you know!?

Out of instinct, I pushed him away. I seriously didn't know how to feel, and it felt like he was forcing himself on me.

"Sorry," he mumbled, and quickly turned around and walked away with his head down. Some others saw but I didn't care. It felt like the only people in the whole world were Cronus and me, and not in a good way. I felt like I should go and help him or something... He seemed upset.

I started to follow him, but caught myself and stayed behind. I wanted to see if he was man enough to collect his own thoughts and emotions. Instead of helping like I normally would, I continued the day without thinking about him.

The next day, he wasn't at school. I was hoping he was just sick and not so upset that he had to stay home.

I saw Eridan there, but not him. So I decided to ask him what was up.

"Hey, is Cronus okay?" I asked him while standing at his locker. I was answered with a shrug.

"He claimed he was sick this morning," he said.

"But is he okay?" I asked again. Eridan sighed.

"Love sick."

I let out the heaviest sigh ever. Eridan rolled his eyes and began walking to class.

"Listen, he's still new to this 'having a crush' thing believe it or not," he said. I followed him, forgetting that I could be late to my class.

"I know, but he's making me feel like I'm the one causing problems..."

"Why don't you tell him that?" He made a sharp turn down a hallway, leaving me by myself again. I shrugged to myself and walked my separate way, too.

Cronus's House

Cronus was laying in bed with a self-proclaimed fever. He did feel hot by the forehead, but at the same time, he was covered in a bunch of blankets. He felt rejected, but at the same time, blamed himself. You usually don't blame yourself when you're rejected.

He sat up and slicked his hair back with a hand. He felt so ridiculous feeling this way over something so stupid. But he couldn't help it.

Is this what love feels like?

He needed to go back and stop being a goddamn wuss.

What am I waiting for?

So he got up.

Why am I so in love..?

GRRRRR I'm so sorry for not updating any of my shit for a while. I've been bombarded by stress and tears and school so I couldn't get the motivation i needed to continue writing. I've also been out of this fandom kind of... for a little. I'm not into it as much as I was back when I started this. I should rp it more so I get back into it a little. But hold in tight, I will get this story finished one day!

also i hate doing the p.o.v switch thing but this is wattpad,,,,, it doesnt matter
