TamakiX!Chunky Reader - Fresh Start Ch.12

You let out a laugh at a funny bit during the film, feeling Tamaki’s hand give yours a gentle squeeze. You were paying attention to the movie, but every once in a while you’d glance over at the self-proclaimed “Host Club King” and catch him staring at you, a soft smile on his lips.

It was nice and a total foreign feeling to say the least, but you were warming up to the idea. I mean, it’s not like it’s impossible for anyone to want you, right?

No. That’s a ridiculous notion, but one that was still lingering in back corners of your mind. Giving your head a quick shake, you rid yourself of those thoughts and focused on the here and now.

“You’re beautiful.” That simple sentence made you turn to the blond, who still had a hold of your hand. The bed shifted slightly as Tamaki moved closer to your frozen stature. You could now feel his body heat radiating off him as it graced your sides. The feeling comforting and lulling in a way.

Untwining your hands or the first time in over an hour, his hand traveled up the expanse of your arm and gently gripped your bicep. You watched as the soft skin sunk in between his delicate fingers making you gulp in anticipation. The grip wasn’t neither hard nor soft. Just enough pressure to remind you that he was there in a flesh, but not enough to disrupt your still fresh bruises that littered your body in various nooks and crannies.

Finally looking up into his bright blue eyes, you squeaked out, “C-come again?” His thumb starting to rub the soft, yet battered skin as he bit his lip.

“You heard me (Y/N), but I’ll repeat it as much as I need to. I said you’re beautiful.” The sincerity was laced in those words and the smile that graced his face was another reminder of that.

The thumb on your skin continued its path as it rubbed gentle circles into your bicep. You both still looked at each other as he let his words sink in. “Where’s this coming from Tamaki?” Breaking the long gaze that you swore only happened in movies, you glanced back up at the Dinsey movie playing and ironically a romantic moment was happening between the two main characters.

Suddenly, his hands wandered from your upper arm, straight to your soft back, the other hand grasping your arm and pulling you towards him. The sudden movement caught you off guard as you tumbled straight into Tamaki’s arms, you on his lap and facing him a blush evident on your round face. He only laughed and stroked your back gently as your breathing evened out – thankfully.

The playful look was suddenly gone from his features, replaced with a very serious, stoic look. This caught your attention, as you shifted a bit at the sudden flip in his facial expressions.

The blond pulled you closer to his form if that was even possible. You could feel his hot breath on your face indicating just how closer you both were. You swore you resembled a strawberry at this point – beet red.

“This came from me observing you.” Your brows knitted in confusion as you wondered what he meant by ‘observing’.

“I’ve been watching your behavior these past few days and I hate what I see.” The air left your lungs as he said those words. What did that mean? Did he hate you? No, that can’t be, he’s been acting so nice… so what?

“Y-you hate what?” You managed to get out as you gathered enough courage to look into his eyes and they were swimming with this shine. It might have been the dimmed room lighting, but there was something there. Something you couldn’t quite put your finger on, but it made you listen to his next words.

“I hate the fact that you don’t see how beautiful you are (Y/N). I pains me to look into your eyes and see the pain and damaged woman you’ve become.” Pausing, he cupped your round cheek with one hand as he leaned back against the cushiony pillows, bringing you with him until you were fully on top of him.

You were so captured with his words and that shine in his eyes you didn’t realize that your full weight was on top of him until you broke eyes contact to try and move off the host, only to have his free hand wrap around your pudgy waist and keep you in place.

“Stay. You’re perfectly fine where you are princess.” Hesitantly, you nodded in agreement and looked back into his eyes which seemed to calm you down. He continued on, “I like you, a lot, I want to know everything about you, even the bad parts (Y/N)…I just want to help you in any way I can and show you exactly what I see every single day – perfection.”

With every word Tamaki said, you could feel yourself tear up and soon, tears were just freely flowing down your round cheeks, dripping onto the fabric of his shirt which he didn’t mind one bit.

With the hand that still cupped your cheek, he swiped away the pesky tears and gently coaxed you closer to him to the point of your noses were almost touching one another. “Will you let me in (Y/N) and help you?”

You knew he was asking permission for two things and you were willing to open yourself up to him and give it a try. It doesn’t matter what everyone else on this planet thinks because right now, it’s just you and Tamaki and if you’re honest with yourself, that’s what you wanted and now you have a chance for it. Like hell you’re going to pass this up.

“I will Tamaki…” Trailing off, you both leaned in a bit more until your lips met in a soft kiss to “test the waters” as they say and it was heavenly.

Shakily, your hands reached up to his light locks, your chubby hands tangling into his soft hair as you tugged a bit earning a soft moan from the man beneath you. Both of his large hands gravitated to your wide hips, gripping onto them tightly, pulling you fully on top of his lap, both of you bouncing on the soft bed from the force.

One hand made its way up the curve of your spine, his fingers lightly moving up and down as if he was playing a melody on a piano. Finally pulling apart, you both were breathing heavily as his hand finally settled on the small of your back where he rubbed the smooth skin lightly.

Your brow started to crease in worry and Tamaki took notice. “What’s wrong my princess?” Leaning your forehead against his you answered, “What will everyone else say? Will they approve…you know, of us?” He had a neutral look on his face as he rolled the both of you over – him being on top of you this time. Locking your soft body in with his frame, he started peppering soft kisses upon your face.

“The others…they don’t matter (Y/N), it’s just you and me – right here, right now.” Placing a gentle kiss on the top of your nose, he went on. “They’re our friends, all they want is for us to be happy and you make me insanely happy.” Smiling up at him, his answer sufficed.

Soon, you both were a giggling heap of tangled limbs and secret kisses all shared in the comfort of the warm room, the dim lights bouncing of your moving bodies and the Disney movie having been forgotten in the background showing the two lovers share a sweet kiss as the credits started to roll, while on the bed, the kisses continued to be shared as a new chapter began for the both of you.
