Josuke Higashikata X Reader: Wing Man

    “You got this bro, I believe in you!” Okuyasu responded enthusiastically, stars of encouragement in his eyes.

    “Aaaugh, just thinking about it makes me anxious!” Josuke groaned, sliding his back down the front of his locker a little.

    “Aw, don’t worry man. You are Josuke fucking Higashikata!” Okuyasu exclaimed. “Unless you need a wing man~” He added on with a wink.

    Josuke snorted, kicking off from his locker with a raised brow. “You? My wing man?! What do you even know about confessing to girls?”

    “Honestly, not much, but ______ isn’t just a girl Josuke.” He responded, a grin spreading across his face.

    Josuke thought, sighing again as he looked up dreamily. “Yeah, you’re right. She’s just, so much more awesome, and beautiful… Totally different from those chatty whiney chicks in the halls.” He mumbled.

    “That and she totally knows how to throw a punch and play with fire.” Okuyasu added on, referring to your violent nature.

    “Which makes her even cuter.” He emphasized in a low voice.

    “Man, you are head over heels for her! Tell her today. You’ve gotta.” Okuyasu nodded, slapping his friend on the shoulder. “I’ll hang back, just in case.”

    “Hah, you do that.” Josuke waved off. “She will know today. Now to pray that rejection won’t be a thing.”

    A grin on Okuyasu’s face and a determined look on Josuke’s, he headed outside to the front of the school with Okuyasu in tow to look for you and confess. Pushing through the front doors, Josuke came into the front courtyard of the school and began to scan the crowd of students for you. After a couple of glances, he spotted you next o a stone bench with Yukako and Koichi, absorbed in what seemed to be a pleasant conversation. Just seeing you so happy made a light blush dust his cheeks as he watched you for a moment. Okuyasu had to nudge him out of his dream-like state, Josuke briefly clearing his throat before calling over to you with a wave.

    Hearing his voice, you looked up to see him waving and waved back. You took a brief moment to excuse yourself from the couple, bowing before jogging over to Josuke and Okuyasu.

    “Hey Josuke! Afternoon Okuyasu! What’s up?” You greeted.

    “Me? Oh I’m just fantastic~!” Okuyasu responded, shooting a little glance at Josuke.

    “That’s good to hear! And you Josuke?”

    “I-I’m uh, I’m alright! But I actually have something to tell you. That’s why I called you over, n’ stuff.” Josuke answered, fumbling his words as he tried to initiate his conversation.

    “Oh! Well what’s up then?” You inquired, carefree and happy as ever.

    “Ah, let’s go over there then. It’s kinda important and… Personal.” He explained, scratching the back of his head nervously as he gestured to go around a corner.

    “Alright. Lead the way then!” You nodded, now intrigued in what he had to say.

    Turning around you and Josuke walked the length of the front of the school towards the corner, Okuyasu giving a goofy little thumbs up when Josuke turned his head back. Even Yukako and Koichi had little smirks on their faces when they looked over from afar, knowing full well what Josuke was up to. Taking you around the corner, Josuke stopped and put his back up against the wall between two windows, shade casting over the two of you from a nearby sakura tree.

    “So whatcha gotta tell me? It’s gotta be suuuper secret, right?” You asked, watching Josuke carefully.

    “Well, kinda… Yeah.” Josuke started, pushing of from the wall.

    “Well come on, what is it?”

    “It’s uh… I want to tell you this… This really important thing… About you and me.” He spoke awkwardly, losing track of how words work as his face began to tint a pinkish colour. He bit his lip and shoved his hands in his pockets, fiddling with the inner fabric as he tried to figure his wording out. “I really…”

    “Hey if it’s too hard to say you don’t have to tell me. It must be some serious business if it’s this hard to find words for.” You reassured, unaware of the confession he was trying to get out.

    “Gah, no it’s fine I just- I… I’m tryna say that I’m-”

    “HE’S IN LOVE WITH YOU _______! EVERY INCH OF THIS BEAST!” Okuyasu hollered from out of nowhere, rounding the corner and shoving both of his hands through the small gap between Josuke’s arms and sides, grabbing the odd zippers on his shirt and yanking them all the way down. “TEN OUTTA TEN BEST WING MAN~!” He screamed, immediately peeling off back around the corner at top speed.

    With the most intense colour of scarlet possible taking over Josuke’s face, he whipped around to try and punch his friend, but the distance was too far between them by now. “FUCK YOU OKUYASU!” He yelled, aggressively trying to zip up his pointless zippers in a flustered rage.

    He would’ve gone after his moronic friend, but the sound of your giggling had him turn around. He faced you with an extremely pouty face, zippers only half done up at uneven lengths.

    “That was hilarious and adorable in so many ways.” You giggled, approaching him.

    “No. He fuckin’ ruined it and now I look like a loser.” Josuke grumbled, quite a flustered mess at this point.

    “Oh heavens no you don’t look like a loser. You’re sweet, actually.” You smiled. Standing in front of him you properly zipped up the remaining distance of each of his zippers. “In fact, I know you tried to say it and Okuyasu kinda messed with your jam, but I’m in love with you as well.” You grinned, your own bright pink blush shamelessly decorating your soft cheeks.

    Josuke gulped and stared down at you, quite surprised to hear what you said. “I, you are?” He asked, almost skeptically.

    You nodded. “Definitely. It was a good idea to come over here and say, even though your top class wing man helped a bit.” You chuckled.

    “I’m going to slaughter him…” He growled.

    “Tch, of course you will! But first, while we’re here, can we finish what you started?” You implied, raising a brow.

    “R-right!” Josuke coughed, clearing his throat. “__-_______, I’m really, really, in love with you. I had to tell you before my heart exploded waiting. S-so do you feel the same?” He restated, having more words with him this time.

    “Of course I do.” You smiled.” I myself have been in love with you for a long while now, and it makes me happy to hear that from you.”

    Actually haring it in proper context from you lifted a huge weight off his heart as he sighed with relief. “Wow I, I never thought-!”

    “Shut up you dolt. It’s all good, and I seriously love you.” You interrupted, leaning up and cutting him off by placing a warm kiss on his lips.

    Letting out a muffled sound of surprise, Josuke stumbled back a bit against the wall again, you flawlessly following with him to keep your lips in place. He couldn’t believe this was happening, and his heartrate shot through the roof because of it. He was so taken aback by your sudden expression of love that he couldn’t register what to do for a moment, but soon welcomed the feeling as his eyes slowly closed, hands coming to rest at your waist as he tilted his head down and moved into you, returning the kiss generously. Pleased, you wrapped your arms around his neck and leaned up, giving once more loving gesture before pulling away to look up at him.

    Now disconnected from the kiss, Josuke was giving his first smile in the alst ten minutes of fluster that occurred between him, you, and his wing man.

    “I can’t believe you said yes.” He said dreamily.

    “I can’t believe you let Oku be your wing man.” You giggled.

    “I didn’t decide it, he did! I just, okay maybe I let him. I thought I might need a little help because you’re just so beautiful and smart, and I lose words when I try tot talk to you.”

    “Well you did perfect. I’m really happy now, and I’m so glad you came over to tell me.” You replied, hugging him close. “I do love you Josuke, you handsome dork.”

    Josuke gave a weak laugh and smiled, pulling you closer as he rested his head on yours. “I love you too _______. So god damn much.”
