Johnny was known as the ladies man. Endless flirting, insignificant dates, pick-up lines wherever possible. He was the Human Torch after all; women and girls all over the world swooned over him. And Johnny was clearly thrilled by the attention.
However, there was never anything serious, never a steady or lasting relationship. Despite countless flirtations with attractive women, none of them could win the hero's heart.
This already belongs to you; his best friend, of all people. Of course, he would never say that out loud. At least not directly. He gave little hints and flirted with you, but you only saw it as a joke, and he didn't dare admit that he was actually serious.
Even if not with words, his actions and body language with you were noticeably different than with anyone else.
He remembered details you told him and didn't forget anything about you. He could sense your feelings without you having to say anything. And he often gave you small gifts.
Today, however, he decided on something... special. He knew how much you loved space and stars, just like he did. When you came back this evening and was about to go to your room, he was already there.
His face, as well as the room itself, was illuminated in a dark blue, and a projector created stars and planets all over the room. He'd built a small cave out of blankets and pillows, inside a comfortable sleeping spot with snacks and a laptop. He looked at you with a grin, doing his best to maintain a confident facade even though his heart was beating faster than usual with nervousness. "What do you say? Movie night?"
