- Touko to Yuu

TouYuu is the femslash ship between Yuu Koito and Touko Nanami from the Bloom Into You fandom.

Canon
Yuu Koito was on her way to find the student council room when she accidentally overhears someone confessing his feelings to a girl. The boy got turned down, but the girl tells him that there is nothing wrong with him and that no matter who asks her out, she would still reject them because she’s not planning on dating anyone. After the boy leaves, she turns around, noticing that someone is eavesdropping, and asks if someone is there. Yuu comes out, explaining that she didn’t mean to do it and that she’s looking for the student council room. The girl willingly guides her towards the room. As they arrive, she introduces herself as Touko Nanami and tells Yuu that she’s a part of the student council.

The next day, Yuu mentions to her two friends that she met a cool, older student. Her friends misunderstand what she meant and tease her that she’s finally interested in those things. Yuu explains that it was a female student. After class, Yuu once again visits the student council room. There, she asks Touko if she’s ever met someone she liked. Touko responds by saying that she does feel bad for the people she rejected, but she just can’t find herself interested in that kind of stuff. She continues that every time someone asks her out, she’s never felt her heart race. Later that night, Yuu messages the boy who was courting her that they should talk tomorrow.

Finally, having their alone time in the student council room, Touko notices something is bothering Yuu, so she has no choice but to tell Touko about the boy and that she’s planning to turn him down because she didn’t get that special feeling when he confessed. After the phone call with the boy, Yuu thanks Touko because she couldn’t have done it if she wasn’t there. She notices that they’re still holding their hands together, which Touko initiated when the call began to give her motivation. It was clear that Touko is nervous because her hands are starting to sweat. She asks Yuu if she doesn’t feel special about anyone, to which Yuu responded with a no. Touko pulls her in for a hug and confesses that she might be starting to fall in love with her.

One time on their way home, Touko’s love confession got mentioned, and Yuu tells her, as they were crossing the railway track, that she knows she didn’t mean anything weird about it because, after all, they’re both girls. She carries on by saying that even if they weren’t, she just doesn’t fall for people. Touko, surprised, suddenly stops walking. As the train finally crosses the spot where they are, knowing that the other side can’t see them, Touko turns around and kisses Yuu on the lips.

As time passes, Yuu has slowly begun to reconsider how she feels towards Touko and abruptly confesses her love. She misinterprets Touko’s shocked response as rejection and runs away, causing Touko to realize that she has been overly imposing towards Yuu.

Yuu and Touko began to meet up at various places and gradually become more emotionally and physically intimate. This culminates when they go bowling together, agreeing that whoever wins gets to request something from the other. Yuu wins and asks to sleep over at Touko’s house. Touko agrees, confessing she had wanted to arrange that as well. On the day, Yuu arrives at Touko’s apartment, where they spend the evening together. To Touko’s surprise, Yuu comes on to her, and they have sex.

Some years later, Yuu and Touko have graduated high school, enrolled in college, and are now engaged.
