Good at Something (Okuyasu x reader) gender-neutral

My first time writing him. But seriously, there should be more Okuyasu x readers!

Okuyasu by his own admission knew he wasn’t very smart. High school, didn’t give him any confidence. In math, the numbers juggled around his head, and he couldn’t fathom how things went together. In english, there were just too many words altogether. Science had a lot of rules. Sure he had Josuke and Koichi to help him. But, he really wanted to just be good at something. Anything.

The weekend had finally arrived had Okuyasu was moping as he walked home alone. Josuke had asked if he wanted to walk together, but he was honestly so bummed out from having to get help from another one of his classmates and being told,

“Geez Okuyasu, how are you bad at this? It’s easy!” for the millionth time, he didn’t want to bring down the mood. He sighed head held low. A familiar voice called out from behind him,

“Okuyasu!” turning around, you were running full speed to meet him. You were in plenty of his classes. And he talked to you seeing as everyone else was either scared or didn’t like him. He considered you a friend… And maybe he had the smallest bit of a crush,

“Hey…” you huffed as he stopped walking,

“J-just give me a second. Man do I suck at gym.” you wheezed. Okuyasu hummed, in response. Quizzically you looked up to his sad frown. Standing up you hesitated to put a hand on his shoulder,

“Okuyasu? Are you okay?” He shrugged as he continued walking,

“Mm… Not really… It’s nothin’ though.” You kept up beside him and shook your head,

“Well, it has to be something. I was wondering why you weren’t with Josuke and Koichi. What’s bothering you?” Okuyasu averted his eyes. He almost felt embarrassed to tell you,

“Promise you won’t tell Josuke… And don’t laugh at me!” you nodded,

“I promise Okuyasu.” He sighed fiddling with the pins on his collar before muttering,

“I-I just wish I was good at something. L-Like, Josuke’s really good at Math. Koichi is great at Science. Yukako’s awesome at english...And me? I’m not good at anything…” Okuyasu idly kicked at the pebbles along the ground. Your hand gently brushed his shoulder,

“Oku… You’re great at a lot of stuff! Don’t sell yourself short, not everyone is good at everything.” Okuyasu sighed,

“Even you’re better at a lot more things than I am.” As you and Okuyasu got to the the front of his house he shrugged,

“Thanks for trying, but-” you huffed going in front of Okuyasu,

“No! I refuse to believe it Okuyasu! Let me stay over and we’ll really see!” Okuaysu shrunk into his shoulders as you opened his gate and headed towards his front door. He didn’t really feel like complaining, and there was a part of him that didn’t want to be alone.

Inside his Dad happily welcomed you in with a grunt,

“Hello Mr. Nijimura! I don’t suppose it would be a problem if I stayed for a bit right?” Okuyasu watched his Dad shake his head and guide you to the couch. Okuyasu had been slowly fixing up the house. Buying furniture among other things,

“Uh- I have to make dinner for Dad and me… and you now I guess. Did ya wanna help?” He still felt miserable but seeing you so happy started to lift his spirits. He actually laughed seeing your eyes go wide,

“Yes, I’d love to!”

Cooking dinner went relatively fast, and was surprisingly fun. As the three of you sat down for dinner Okuyasu glanced over to you as you took your first bite. He saw himself in you as you bounced happily in your seat,

“Oku! This is delicious! Do you make your own lunches too?” Okuyasu smiled nervously, a blush creeping over his cheeks,

“U-uh… No. Thanks for the compliment though.” After dinner Okuyasu watched his dad head upstairs. Meanwhile you had begun to pull out paper and pencils. Okuyasu sighed sitting down beside you,

“So are you going to prove I’m good at stuff?” You smiled shrugging,

“Don’t know. Do you have any ideas Oku?” He grumbled,

“Aw, I’m no good at thinking. Why would you leave the planning to me?” You smiled grabbing one of his hands,

“Because I know you’re good at it! Josuke isn’t good at everything.” Oku blushed more,

“I- you… Why do you…” Okuyasu sniffed and wiped at his eyes,

“Why are you so nice to me? Everyone else thinks I’m stupid or scary.” You froze before cupping his face and hugging his neck,

“Because if you won’t even believe in yourself, someone has to. I care about you Okuyasu.” Okuyasu whimpered as he hugged back. As the two of you sat there in silence with just Okuyasu’s sniffles. You backed away with a small blush,

“I actually did find something you’re good at,” Okuyasu cocked his head to the side as you continued, “it’s uh… Cooking.” Okuyasu smiled with tears,

“Really? I didn’t think it was that good…”

“It was!” Okuyasu laughed to himself before leaning in and pressing a shy kiss to your cheek,

“Thank you.” You blushed and covered your face as Okuyasu stuttered,

“S-Sorry! I um-!” You lurched forward hugging him and actually knocking the two of you over,

“And you’re very good at making me blush Oku!”

“Does this mean you…?” As you nodded your face buried in his chest Okuyasu chuckled cuddling closer to you. It seemed that his wish had been granted. Apparently he was good at something, and he was looking forward to having you remind him.
