It doesn’t take a smart person to know that Daisuke, your best friend since attached at the hip, is in love with you. The way he acts around you, like he has heart eyes every time he sees you.
Ever since you two, along with 4 others joined the Tulpar ship to deliver mouthwash across the country in space, he’s been more clingy than usual. Not that you mind anyways, you’ve always found this side of him cute. Not that you’d ever admit that.
But you, being oblivious as always never noticed. But Daisuke never minded. He’d tell you how much he loves you until you understood instead of being confused. You were walking back to the sleeping quarters when Daisuke fell into step beside you.
He stayed silent for a few seconds before randomly blurting out, “You’re so pretty..” Neither you or Daisuke expected him to say that, given by the look on his face and the small flush that was starting to appear on his face. Daisuke’s expression was a mix of shock at his own words, embarrassment at what he just said, and a bit of hopefulness that you wouldn’t just brush off his words and actually say something back.
