Kujo Jotaro X Reader: Boldly Loving

    “Oi _______, whatcha staring at~?” Polnareff hummed, leaning over your shoulder from the back of the couch you were sitting on, a devious smirk playing on his face.

    “GYAH!” You screeched, unaware of his presence that had just scared you shitless. “P-Polnareff what the fuck?! Are you trying to give me a heart attack?!” You hissed, trying to keep your voice low enough as to not override the conversation occurring across the room from you.

    “No, but I am curious as to what you were staring so intently at~!” He said, glancing from you to Jotaro multiple times while waggling his brow bones at you suggestively.

    “What?! N-nothing is what you bastard! Buzz off!” You seethed, narrowing your eyes at him threateningly while a dull blush began to appear on your face through the anger you were trying to portray.

    Polnareff snorted as he hurtled over the back of the couch and landed closely beside you with a devilish smirk. “Oh suuuuuure~! I’m about a hundred percent sure that you were gawking at good ol’ Jotaro over there.”

    “Fuck you no I wasn’t.” You growled, averting your eyes from him as you quickly became flustered.

    “You totally were because you are way too into him. I can see it in your eyes.” He laughed. “If you’ve got a thing for him, get the hell over there and tell him!”

    “Rrrgh…” You grumbled, irritated that Polnareff knew so much without you saying anything yourself. “I don’t tell him for a damn good reason so fuck off.”

    “What could that reason possibly be?! It’s Jotaro! Go on and tell him how much you like him~!” Polnareff teased, edging you on.

    “I can’t because he’s scary as fuck dude!” You hissed violently at Polnareff, giving your reason for not yet confessing anything.

    He nearly choked hearing that, snorting loudly as he held back what could’ve been a loud spurt of laughter. Avdol, Jotaro, and Joseph were so deeply enthralled in their conversation that they didn’t catch the sound, but Kakyoin did and looked over at you and Polnareff with a lot of question and concern in his eyes. With only Kakyoin’s attention drawn. Polnareff gestured wildly for him to come over and join him, snickering while he flailed his left arm as a signal.

    “What the hell is going on over here?” Kakyoin questioned, standing in front of the two of you seated on the couch.

    “Get this man: _______ won’t confess she likes Jotaro to him because he’s ‘scary as fuck dude’.” Polnareff quoted, nudging you with his elbow.

    “Oh really? Please do tell me more on the subject then.” Kakyoin said, suddenly gaining interest in the subject now as he took a seat on your opposing side from where Polnareff was sitting.

    “Oh god fucking kill me now.” You grumbled, becoming stuck between the two of them.

    “So _______ you’ve got a thing for Jotaro then huh?” Kakyoin pried a bit, leaning into your side.

    You grunted, blush becoming apparent.

    “Oh she does. But she just can’t bring herself to say anything because he’s scary~!” Polnareff informed.

    You growled now, blush getting heavier.

    “Jotaro? Scary? Why’s that _______?” Kakyoin asked, curious of your take on Jotaro considering you were so fond of him.

    “G-god you guys are morons.” You stammered. “Rejection. It’s called fear of rejection you fucks.”

    “Fear of… Rejection?” The two of them said simultaneously in question, losing the teasing tone as they became more aware to listen instead.

    “Yeah. That bullshit. You ever feel like you’re I love with someone so much that you just can’t bring yourself to talk to them about your feelings? Because y’know, they probably don’t feel the same or will brutally reject your feelings, and you don’t want to ruin the friendship you already have with them…” You began to explain, going over your inner emotions. “That’s the feeling I want to avoid. Rejection. It hurts like hell. And no matter how deep I fall in love with Jotaro, he’s still scary. He’s brutal in and out of battle, and when’s the last time you seen that man smile? For fuck sakes I swear he has resting bitch face syndrome twenty-four seven because honestly why would someone so serious and strong want to deal with a giddy fuck nugget like me.” You finished, putting your head in your hands as you poured your guts out to a couple of your moronic friends.

    Both of them immediately regretted the extent they took their teasing now and made the seating arrangement more comfortable for you, giving you apologetic looks.

    “Shit _______ I had no idea you were feeling like that. I’m… sorry.” Polnareff apologized.

    “I’m sorry as well. Your reasoning makes it clear that our jokes were unnecessary.” Kakyoin nodded.

    “Yeah. Those are my current thoughts right now so that’s why I’m just kinda staring from afar, debating on whether or not I wanna take a shot at gaining love or losing a heart.” You mumbled, face slightly heated from embarrassment.

    “_______, I’ve got something to say that may help. It’ll be far more supportive compared to what we were saying before obviously.” Kakyoin said, looking to lift your spirits.

    “And that is?” You questioned with a scoff.

    “Well… It actually has to do with what we were joking about. I know what you fear, but Jotaro isn’t actually that scary.” Kakyoin began. “Both Polnareff and I set out to kill him, and he saved us both instead while letting us accompany him. He’s got quite the heart actually. And… He’s not so much brutal, but rather bold. He’s very sincere and bold with his personality, and though he may look like he has an eternal grouch on, he’s really a caring and loving guy.” Kakyoin reasoned.

    “Right! Boldly loving would be a phrase to suit him well.” Polnareff chimed in. “And his smiling issue, well he never really has a reason to. I bet an upbeat happy person like you could side with him and finally give him the reason he needs to smile!”

    You had to chuckle at that, feeling a little more uplifted by their comments. “Gee, thanks. You guys are almost like the world’s worst wingmen.” You joked.

    “Glad it turned out we helped instead of completely made you feel like shit.” Kakyoin grinned, thankful for your better mood.

    “Yeah, maybe if I think of how I’d do it, I might tell him tonight before we go to our rooms.” You said, gaining an ounce of courage.

    “Awesome! I believe in you!” Polnareff cheered, flashing you a dorky grin and a peace sign.

      “Jesus christ you guys really are morons.” You laughed, finally gaining your humour back for the moment.

    Finally feeling better about the whole teasing ordeal, you kept up a lighthearted conversation with the two of them on that side of the room while the others still did their business-like talk, making the room a lot less one sided in the conversation department. All was lively for another half an hour until Joseph stood, drawing the attention of everyone when he did.

    “Our next path and plan of action has been decided! I advise we go to bed for an early rise tomorrow.” Joseph ordered.

    “Aw, whyyyyy!” Polnareff whined.

    “Because it’s almost midnight you fuck.” Joseph retorted. “BED.”

    “Yes MOM.” Polnareff shot back, getting up from the couch with you and Kakyoin.

    Kakyoin gave you a glance and nodded as he gestured at Jotaro, and honest smile on his face as he began to leave. It was time for you to make your move, and if you didn’t do it now, you probably never would again. As the small group began to file out of the room, Jotaro was luckily the last one to begin leaving. You called out to him just loud enough so he could hear, stopping him from leaving as his attention was turned to you, leaving the room now empty aside from the two of you.

                “Hmm?” He hummed in question, coming to stand before you.

                “Well, uh… I wanted to tell you something… Kinda important!” You began, starting to lose your words again. He looked at you with growing curiosity, making you even more nervous for every second that passed by. “I uh… wanted to tell you… Well you know how when one person is fond of another and they kinda s-share feeling and stuff and- fuck uh… I’m trying to tell you…”You began to stammer, growing impatient with yourself. “Shit I-I just- GAH! I’M IN LOVE WITH YOU ALRIGHT!” You finally blurted, kind of yelling it out of frustration with yourself.

    Jotaro’s expression had gone from curious to shocked in less than a second, his eyes widening with disbelief, as if he didn’t hear you right. He was baffled, and even the tips of his ears began to turn scarlet from hearing you speak. That’s not quite how you saw it though. Instead, you took his expression as one a person would make if their won best friend got shot, and the redness of his ears being how angry and disappointed he became. You began to feel immediate regret and sorrow upon your misjudgement f expression and covered your face in embarrassment.

    “Oh god I’m so sorry. You didn’t need to hear that. You probably fucking hate me now. I-I’ll just go.” You muttered, beginning to walk away and back to your room in shame.

    As you were passing Jotaro to leave though, he grasped one of your arms to stop you as he turned you around to face him.

    “Yare yare daze. Why didn’t you just say so sooner?” He said with a sort of chuckle in his tone.

    “W-what?” You questioned, looking at him with confusion.

    When your eyes crossed his face, all you seen was the warmest of smiles with the lightest of blushes on his face looking back at you. You were dumbfounded, not expecting to see that at all. Your voice became caught in confusion, and you would’ve said something too but Jotaro had you cut off himself by taking no more time to swiftly lean in and kiss you; the very last thing you would’ve expected him to do.

    Caught completely off guard, your face just erupted with a scarlet blush as his hands made their way to your waist and pulled you up close against his body, your own hands frozen in confusion as you didn’t know what to do with them now. Your misjudgement of his expression definitely treated you with quit the surprise, and you just about fainted from the shock, only getting about half limp in his arms. It was enough for him to register that you needed support as he quickly let up on his kiss and offered your upper and lower back support while he held you close to keep you upright.

    “Maybe I should’ve warned you...” He said dumbly with a hint of a chuckle.

    “You…” You started, trying to regain your train of thought. “I thought you hated me and thought what I said was disgusting.” You finally got out, still rather shocked.

    He shook his head no with an honest smile. “You can be so dense.” He told you with a slight scoff. “I could never hate you.”

    “H-hey! You’re just so… So bold that you’re impossible to read. You always look bored and you’re a man of few words…” You grumbled.

    “Bold…” He pondered. “Well, I’m boldly loving then.” He told you with a gentle squeeze of affection.

    You had to scoff a little at that, a heavy blush still prominent on your face from his sudden affection that he showed towards you unexpectedly. “S-so, what I said doesn’t bother you?”

    “Of course not. Actually, I’ve been in love with you for a while now. I just couldn’t think of how to tell you.” He muttered. “Hell since you were, you should’ve said something sooner. Making me wait to kiss you…”

    “Oi, it’s hard you know! You’re legit scary with your constant straight face. The only time I’ve ever seen you genuinely smile is… well, now I guess.” You noticed, still watching his expression.

    “So what does that tell you?” He questioned, leaning down and flashing you that rarely seen edge of a smile.

    “That…” You started, quickly becoming too embarrassed to say.

    “That you give me a good reason to smile, _______. Because I love you.” He finished with a chuckle. Jotaro then took the hand that held your upper back and caressed your chin gently, angling your head up. “So, could I maybe finish that kiss this time? Without you turning into a noodle this time too.”

    “O-oi! You surprised me!” You argued. “But… Y-yeah, that would be nice.” You added on with a low mumble.

    “Good. I’ve been waiting to this right anyway.” He smirked, leaning down and replacing his lips on yours again.

     This time you anticipated it and accepted it, hearing of how he didn’t hate you for your outburst of a confession. You thought he would totally reject you, and he instead ended up being exactly like Kakyoin and Polnareff described: bold yet loving. You were so happy for this turn out that you couldn’t help but smile a little into the kiss, ecstatic that he felt the same. He had so much care, holding you gently at your waist with you so close to him, finally giving you the passionate kiss he’d been waiting to give your for a while.

    In the remaining seconds of your kiss, your hands ended up around his neck to support you and keep you close until he broke away to look down at you, eyes shining with his love for you.

    “Hey guess what. I love you _______.” He said sincerely.

    You smiled at that, your cheeks a sweet pink colour. “I could’ve guessed that by now, maybe.” You joked. “But I love you too. I’m kinda glad I found the guts to say it when I did.”

    “Me to _______. Me too.” He huffed, hugging you warmly in his strong form, nuzzling into your shoulder as he bent down a little closer to your height to do so.

    He truly was the opposite of what you thought, and that took the largest weight off your shoulders as you hugged him back, giving him a thankful kiss on his cheek quickly before you took in his warmth. He really was just a bold yet loving man.
