You Were Always Mine [Dekisugi × Nobita]

♥︎Author~
This is my new story..
The afternoon sun poured through the classroom windows, bathing the desks in warm golden light...
The teacher stood at the front of the room, holding a stack of graded test papers...
For most students, this was an ordinary day...
For Nobita, it was a day of doom....Again
Teacher
"The highest score in the class goes to Dekisugi."
Teacher
"One hundred out of one hundred."
The classroom erupted with admiration....
Students [10 yrs]
"Amazing as always!"
"Dekisugi is incredible!"
"He never makes mistakes!"
At the center of it all sat Dekisugi... calm, polite and smiling modestly..
Dekisugi [11 yrs]
"Thank you."
Then the teacher continued...
Several students already started laughing....
The class exploded in laugh....
Suneo [10 yrs]
"Twenty- one?!"
Gian [10 yrs]
"That's higher than I expected!"
Suneo [10 yrs]
"By two points!"
Nobita slowly lowered his head onto his desk....
He wished the floor would open and swallow him...
Nobita [10 yrs]
"Why does this always happen..."
A shadow appeared beside his desk...
Nobita already knew who it was...
The perfect student.... the perfect athlete.... The perfect friend.... the perfect in everything.
Dekisugi [11 yrs]
"Nobita."
Nobita didn't even look up....
Dekisugi [11 yrs]
"Do you want help studying after school?"
Nobita immediately sat up....
The answer came out much louder than intended...
The classroom fell silent...
Dekisugi blinked his eyes...
Nobita instantly regretted it...
Nobita [10 yrs]
"I mean..."
Dekisugi [11 yrs]
"It's okay."
The gentle smile never left Dekisugi's face...
Which somehow annoyed Nobita even more...
Nobita [10 yrs]
"You don't have to pity me."
For the first time, Dekisugi looked surprised...
Dekisugi [11 yrs]
"Pity you?"
Nobita [10 yrs]
"Everyone always compares me to you."
The classroom became awkwardly quiet...
Nobita [10 yrs]
"You're good at everything."
Nobita [10 yrs]
"And I'm terrible at everything."
Nobita [10 yrs]
"So thanks, but no thanks."
Dekisugi stared at him for a moment....
Then quietly returned to his seat...
No argument.... no defense.... Nothing.
And somehow that made Nobita feel worse.

And somehow that made Nobita feel worse...
As the final bell rang students rushed out of the classroom...
Nobita packed his bag with more force than necessary...
Suneo [10 yrs]
"Still jealous of Dekisugi?"
Gian [10 yrs]
"If I were him, I'd cry every day."
Nobita [10 yrs]
"Shut up!"
A fight nearly started, thankfully shizuka meddled..
Shizuka [10 yrs]
"Stop it."
Everyone froze at their place...
Shizuka [10 yrs]
"Can't you all act your age?"
Suneo [10 yrs]
"We were just joking."
Shizuka [10 yrs]
"It wasn't funny."
Gian scratched his head...
As the two boys left Shizuka turned toward Nobita...
Shizuka [10 yrs]
"Are you okay?"
Nobita [10 yrs]
"Of course."
Shizuka [10 yrs]
"You're a terrible liar."
Nobita looked away and Shizuka followed his gaze toward Dekisugi...
Who was helping another student understand a math problem as usual...
Shizuka [10 yrs]
"You know..."
Shizuka [10 yrs]
"I don't think Dekisugi looks down on you."
Shizuka [10 yrs]
"Then why are you always angry at him?"
Nobita opened his mouth then closed it... Because honestly?
That evening Nobita returned home.
Collapsed onto the floor and groaned dramatically
Nobita [10 yrs]
"Doraemoooon!"
A blue robotic cat or you can say racoon(🫣) emerged from the closet...
Doraemon
"What happened this time?"
Nobita [10 yrs]
"Dekisugi happened."
Doraemon sighed in helplessness
Doraemon
"What did he do?"
Nobita [10 yrs]
"Nothing!"
Doraemon
"Then what's the problem?"
Nobita rolled around on the floor...
Nobita [10 yrs]
"He's perfect."
Doraemon
"That's not a crime."
Nobita [10 yrs]
"Everyone likes him."
Doraemon
"Also not a crime."
Nobita [10 yrs]
"Even Shizuka likes him."
Doraemon suddenly understood
Nobita [10 yrs]
"Don't say 'ah.'"
Doraemon
"You're jealous."
Nobita [10 yrs]
"I'm not jealous!"
Doraemon
"You absolutely are."
A mischievous smile appeared on Doraemon's face
Which was never a good sign

[...]: Means the thoughts of the person
"...": Means someone talking
Nobita arrived at school..
Only to find a strange gadget hidden inside his bag..
Nobita [10 yrs]
"That idiot..."
Before he could figure it out
And suddenly...he could hear a voice.
Dekisugi [11 yrs]
[I hope Nobita isn't still upset with me..]
He slowly turned around..
Dekisugi was standing near the classroom door..
Talking with classmates, smiling normally.
Yet the voice continued..
Dekisugi [11 yrs]
[Maybe I said something wrong yesterday..]
Dekisugi [11 yrs]
[I should apologize...]
Nobita nearly dropped the badge..
Was he...hearing Dekisugi's thoughts?
At that exact moment, Dekisugi noticed him..
Dekisugi [11 yrs]
"Good morning, Nobita."
Nobita [10 yrs]
"G-Good morning!"
Dekisugi [11 yrs]
[He looks nervous..]
Dekisugi [11 yrs]
[Did I really hurt his feelings that much?]
For the first time, Nobita realized something unexpected..
Dekisugi wasn't looking down on him..
He was worried about him..
And that confused Nobita more than anything..
Because if Dekisugi wasn't his enemy...
Then why did his heart suddenly start beating so fast when Dekisugi smiled at him?
Nobita sat alone beneath a tree..
Staring at the strange badge..
Nobita [10 yrs]
"This has to be broken."
Dekisugi [11 yrs]
"What's broken?"
Dekisugi stood beside him..
Holding two juice boxes..
Nobita [10 yrs]
"D-Don't sneak up on people!"
Dekisugi [11 yrs]
"Sorry."
Close enough that their shoulders almost touched..
Nobita immediately moved away..
A faint sadness crossed his face..
Dekisugi [11 yrs]
"Do you really dislike me that much?"
The question hit harder than Nobita expected..
Because he didn't know the answer..
