Once Tsukishima realised how he felt for you it didn't take long for him to pull you aside after physics class. He pulled you into an adjacent empty room and exhaled deeply before bluntly saying.

"I like you"

He looked at you, your reaction meant a lot to him.

"Will you go out with me? If not just tell me, then forget I ever asked."

Tsukishima practically retracted his statement immediately by offering you an easy way out, but in truth god he hoped you liked him too. At least a little bit.
