calling them with another name (part 2).
kozume kenma, oikawa tooru, akaashi keiji
i completely forgot to post this, my bad
here's the part 1!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
kozume kenma
a lil suggestive if you squint
Tumblr media
“ken…” you called for your boyfriend, who's currently busy with his switch.
“hm?” he hummed, not sparing a glance at you. you pouted and just muttered it's nothing.
you rolled on his bed, not sure how to make your boyfriend, kenma, point his attention to you. it was so hard to find free time for both of you while you’re both in college.  while thinking hard, you heard your phone pinged, you lazily reached for it and saw that your friend messaged you.
you immediately opened it and saw that she had sent you a video. it was a tiktok video of a girl calling his boyfriend a different name and seeing his reaction. your friend even said to try it on kenma and see how he will react.
you were reluctant, knowing kenma is too busy playing, you're not sure if he'll even notice that you called him by a different name, but with your friend's persistence, she managed to get you to try it.
well, here goes nothing. 
you went behind him and rested your head on his arm. he peeked at you a bit but went back to playing again.
will this really work? 
“hey,” you started, kenma took off the headphone on one of his ears.
“hm?” he asked.
“pay attention to me already.” you whined making him chuckled softly. he just planted a kiss on your head, before going back to playing.
“boo. forget it, you're always busy playing, mitsuo.” you delivered your plan and crawled back on the bed and scrolled through twitter on your phone.
not even a minute passed, kenma took the phone from your hand and he's already on top of you, his arms locking you within his grasp.
you looked at the switch he was just holding a few moments ago and it was just laying there, you made a terrible decision to look him in his eyes. kenma is staring at you as if he's looking through your soul and he's not saying a word.
“k-ken?” you called, your heart starting to beat incredibly fast and your lips forming an awkward smile.
“that's not what you called me earlier.” he said, every word making your knees feel like they're wobbly.
uhm, hello?! this is not the reaction i thought i would get! what is this?! 
“ke-kenma, what?” you tried to look away from him, but he just made you look at him again.
this is too much for me to handle! i didn't expect kenma to be like this! 
“kenma, it's just a prank!” you confessed shakily. “haha.” you smiled at him nervously, your hands waving in front of you.
instead of a confused expression, you saw a smile creeping up on kenma's face. he laid on top of you and cuddled you.
“i know.” he spoke, his voice resonating through your neck's skin.
“huh?” you asked him confusedly.
“i know you were just playing with me. i saw a lot of videos like that, and i just decided to turn the tables on you.” he explained.
you hit his biceps playfully while telling him how you thought he was mad. he muttered that he was sorry for that and that he's sorry for not giving you enough attention. you guys cuddled up for a bit before it was disturbed by a certain rooster-head.
“kenma, let's go play vol—” kuroo slammed open the door of kenma's room and found him cuddling with you. 
an teasing smile immediately flashed his face, and you heard kenma groaned knowing how kuroo would react.
“oh my~ it seems like i interrupted something. ohoho~” the former captain said, putting a hand on his mouth as if he was a reserved lady.
“shut up, kuroo. leave.” kenma said and buried his face deeper on your neck.
“yes, yes. please don't be too sweet to each other, you might attract ants.” he said before leaving the two of you alone.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
oikawa tooru 
Tumblr media
“babe,” you heard the same sweet voice call from outside your room just when you finished packing your things.
you looked where the voice came from and oikawa was there standing by the door and waving your way. some girls are glancing at him as they walk past him, but sadly for them, oikawa doesn't notice them, for he's only looking at you. waving and smiling like an idiot. 
you apologized to him in your mind, because today you'll be doing a prank on him and hopefully you can do this according to your plan.
when you went to him, he immediately kissed you on your forehead and even your hands.
“what? you're being extra sweet. did something good happen?” you laughed as you started to walk away with your hands locked with him.
“hm? no, it's just, i suddenly felt happy when i saw my beautiful girlfriend.” he said and suddenly threw himself on you, hugging you in the middle of school grounds, with students walking from all directions to go to their clubs or to go home.
“jeez, people are starin— ahahaha stop that!” you screamed when oikawa suddenly tickled you.
“hehe, sorry, sorry.” he said and stopped, placing a kiss on you again.
you guys continued to walk before some of his aggressive fan girls arrived. when you two are out of school, you finally decided that it's time to commence the work.
“hey…” you called for his attention. he immediately leaned down to you, still holding your hands. “our anniversary's close, i was thinking, how about we go out of town?” you suggested. oikawa's eyes beamed and smiled at you.
“that's nice, babe! where should we go? kyoto? kanagawa? ah! how about akita?” oikawa muttered excitedly, and even did actions with his other hand. you smiled at how high tension he is, but you need to focus on your job.
“haha, i see you're excited about it, shuichi. let's go to my house and discuss it there.” you said and pulled him to your house direction.
oikawa titled his head as you pulled him until he forcefully made his body stop and pulled you too. you looked back at him, with a smile, holding back your loud laugh at seeing his expression.
“what?” you asked him, trying to sound normal. he let go of your hands, in the most dramatic way, even letting out an 'ugh' sound.
“no, no, no, i am your babe.” he said pointing his finger at him. you just nodded at him. 
“you are my babe.” he followed, you furrowed your brows, but still nodded.
“then who is this shuichi loser you just called me?! my name is not shuichi and will never be shuichi. ah—! are you cheating on me?!” he said in one breath, putting both of his hands on your shoulders.
“i—” 
“no! i need an explanation. i demand an explanation!” he emotionally drew his eyes away from you.
yeah, i was about to explain, but you cut me off.
oh shit. why didn't i take account of how much of a drama queen my boyfriend is? 
“(y/n), tell me what did i do wro—”
“tooru, it's just a prank.” you plainly said.
“huh?” he stopped all his movements and let go of your shoulder.
“prank, just a prank.”
“ah! how could you?!” he shouted as he put a hand on his chest and turned around.
“i thought it would be a good one, sorry hehe.” you apologized and hugged him from behind. but, oikawa looks at you with a pout and teary eyes.
“i thought i had a heart attack. hmph!” he broke off from your hug and started to walk.
“what? tooru, are you going home now?” you asked him as he walked further, but he suddenly stopped and went back to you. “yes?” 
“give me your bag.” he demanded that you complied. when you handed him your things, he ran off again.
“eh? babe?” you called.
“don't talk to me! go and do your stupid prank on someone else!” he said and grumpily stomped.
“yeah, you're acting as if you're mad and yet you're still going in my house's direction.” you teased and laughed.
“hmph! i still want to go to akita with you, duh?!” 
“‘duh’? hahaha! tooru, you're so cute!” you said and ran to him.

akaashi keiji 
Tumblr media
cuddling with your boyfriend, akaashi keiji, on their couch, while watching anything you two find is a normal routine for the two of you whenever his parents are out or in another town.
but, right now, your beautiful prince is sleeping while you watch the movie you are really looking forward to watching with him. you are sure that he's not asleep because he's tired from practice or that he stayed up late last night, so the only reason he fell asleep is that he got bored watching it.
“keiji, we haven't even reached the middle part and yet you're already sleeping.” you murmured as you turned off the tv. you lay on top of him and as if he's awake he snaked his arms down your waist, but you're sure that just reflexed, so you put on your earphones and went to tiktok.
scrolling down, your eye was hooked on one video of a girl pranking his boyfriend. should you do to your boyfriend? hmm... 
after thirty minutes, akaashi woke up to the smell of cookies that you just baked.
“ah, good afternoon to you, mister. i was just about to wake you up.” you told him when you saw his eyes wide open when you placed the bowl on the table.
“mhm, i woke up to the aroma.” he said and looked up at the tv. “what happened to the movie?” he asked.
“well, you are already sleeping, so i just turned it off.” you explained. “forget about that, why don't you give these cookies a taste?” you told him and gave him a piece. he took a bite and chewed on it.
“so? how's the taste, yukio—” 
eh? (y/n), what the hell?! wait, omg. the prank is still on my mind, and i unconsciously said the name that the girl used in the video! i wasn't even planning to do it! 
“u-uhm…” you nervously scratched your cheeks and took a seat next to him.
“it tastes good…” akaashi answered. you sighed deeply in your mind, thinking that he's not mad, or so you know.
“how about thi—” you didn't finish speaking when akaashi talked.
“so, (y/n), who the fuck is this yukio?” he looked at you, and you saw the most serious face you've seen in his face.
huh? i thought i was safe! i thought he'll just let it slip, just as usual. 
is this what they were talking about in that idiom about don't dare to joke about a person who just woke up-something? 
huh? wait. did i hear that right?
“keiji, did you just curse?” you asked him, in complete awe, to hear your usually calm and collected boyfriend curse.
“that's not what's important right now. cut the crap and tell me who the fuck is that yukio?” he said and furiously ran his fingers through his scalp.
“again. keiji, you cursed again.” you stated, just staring at him with your hand on your mouth.
“(y/n).” he deadpanned.
“somehow... it's so hot to hear you curse, keiji.” you melted as you looked at him lovingly and hearts can be seen in your eyes.
“babe...”
“keiji, one more.” you said with your puppy eyes, wanting to hear more.
after a few more pleas to him, akaashi gave up.
he already realized that that was just a prank and yet, he is now stuck with you who seems to have unlocked a new world for you.

someone to protect.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
himejima gyomei x reader
wc: 9.4k
a/n: i'm not so sure how to feel about this :||
Tumblr media
himejima came out of the room with the meeting he just had with the corps leader that ended swiftly. he bowed one last time to ubayashiki before closing the door.
as he walks down the corridor of the house, he thinks back to what he and ubayashiki talk about.
“ah…” he groaned as he rubbed his palms together. “another newly appointed hashira.”
he was visiting the master when the latter brought up this new information. he was told that this new hashira eliminated the lower rank three of the twelve demon moons.
tears started to fall down his cheeks as usual.
“ah… i wish they wouldn’t die as easily.” he cries, his sensitive heart breaking just by the thought of his fellow slayer dying, even if they haven’t met yet.
meanwhile, you just arrived at the headquarters with the help of a kakushi leading the way for you. you were told by the kakushi to wait in the backyard, while he went to announce your arrival to the people in the house. 
you know why you were here.
recently, you managed to kill the lower rank two.
whether it was luck or not that the sun came out as your stamina was running low from trying to keep him the demon from running away, the only thing you know is that your loathing for those disgusting monsters have gone up to the maximum level. 
just thinking about them makes your hands shake with anger.
that same day you got the recognition for slaughtering the lower rank three was the same day you lost your closest friend.
the friend who you grew up with. that friend who was with you and helped you when a demon killed your only family, your father. that friend who joined the corps with you. 
the friend who you promised to protect.
just to fail. 
your mouth was open but no words were coming out of it. you watched in horror as her body slowly lost its strength.
“don't cry…” she muttered, slowly. she knows you don’t realize how much tears are coming out of your eyes, that your sclera is already turning red, the same color as her red-stained clothes.
your friend was lying on your arms, blood flowed out of the large wound the demon gave her when she almost beheaded it. 
“d-don’t talk! help is on their way! just wait for a bit— i promise i won't let you die—” your eyes, disoriented from panicking, looked around to see if anyone's coming your way.
‘is there anything there that can stop her bleeding?! pressure! i should put pressure on the wound—’
your distraught mind stopped when you felt her hands, covered with blood, touch your cheek.
you looked into her already half closed eyes. 
“no… pressure… let me apply—” you uttered, trying to ignore the tightness of your throat.
she shook her head.
“(y/n), it's too late for me…” she answered.
“no, just shut your mouth! i know help is on the way!” you shouted as you took off your haori and tried to tie it around her waist, trying to stop the blood from flowing out more. not noticing how your breaths became shorter and faster. 
“please… just promise me one thing—” she started.
you held her hand on your cheeks and looked down at her. 
“no! i’m not promising you anything! you better survive this! you haven't taught me yet how to make those mochi you always make! i still haven't found the demon who killed my father! you told me you'll help me with it! so you better survive!”
she smiled weakly at you. tears filled her eyes as she listened to you one last time. 
“you have to survive… please… you're the only one i have left…” you whispered, your own tears falling on her cheeks. 
“s-sorry…” she said and stopped to take another deep breath. “please… i'm sorry for leaving you all alone. please be happy…”
you sobbed as you nodded.
seeing your answer, she smiled. and her hands slowly slipped down from their touch on your cheeks, while her eyes slowly closed. 
you shook your head. you felt your eyes get teary again and it snapped you out of your thoughts.
that kakushi said i should go to the back, right? 
as you were walking to the backyard, you heard a noise coming from the shrub on the fence’s side. you immediately went into alert, ready to attack it if ever it's something that needs to be taken down at once. 
you took your stance and were ready to sheathe your sword.
“nyaa~”
eh?
“a cat?” you muttered as you relaxed your body. 
what am i doing getting all tense to a cat?
now that i think about it, that was too much reaction. it’s not like there will be demons at the headquarters. what’s more, the sun is out…
“...pfft—” you immediately covered your mouth and tried to hold yourself back from letting out a laugh.
you crouched down and held your hand out to the creature. you moved your fingers and tried to call the cat.
“come here.” you talked to it. 
it meowed again before making its way to you. you peeked on its genitals and noted that it’s a male. he rubbed his face on your palm and you could hear his purrs. a small smile appeared on your lips.
“where did you come from?” you asked him, knowing he wouldn’t answer back except for a meow.
“are you a cat of the master?” you queried again before lifting the cat up and holding it close to your chest.
you examined him and he seems fine with no evident injury. you felt relieved. 
“thank goodness you're not hurt or anything.” you whispered as you pulled him closer to you.
“please live safely.” you added, booping his nose. 
the cat suddenly jumped out of your hold and ran away, vanishing from your view into a corner.
“(y/n)-sama, this way please.” the kakushi with you earlier suddenly spoke. 
you stood and tidied up your uniform.
“yes.” you answered before following them.
“nyaa~” 
“oh?” himejima uttered when the cat meowed his way. he knelt down and offered his arms to the cat.
the cat immediately jumped onto him.
“were you finished talking to that person?” he asked the feline who became fascinated by the sound that his prayer beads are making with his every move.
she must be the new hashira. he thought to himself.
as he pets the cat, he smiles to himself.
at the very least, she seems to be kind from the way she treated this cat. i wish her all the best and hope she survives long.
when his kakushi guide arrived, he left the place carrying the cat that was a stray one when he was on his way to the headquarters.
it’s been seven months. 
seven months ever since you’ve been posted in your jurisdiction. you did your best to protect the people from where you were assigned.
you got to admit, with protecting them and having to be always alert that a demon might appear suddenly at night during your patrol helped get some thoughts off of your mind.
but, it will make you never forget the hatred you feel for every demon.
every time you encounter one, at the back of your mind you're thinking that maybe not all demons are like that, only for that thought to be shattered once you hear how they explain with no remorse that eating human flesh is delicious and that they'll always choose to be demon even in their next life.
it makes your skin crawl with disgust that you even gave them a bit of compassion. you regret even thinking that they might be different from others.
you hate them. 
you loathe them. 
you won't forgive them for killing all your beloved ones.
you won't let even one of these revolting creatures escape your blade. you swore to kill the one who took your father's life with this blade.
it's dawn and you just woke up. you sleep during the day as demons are more active during the night, so you as a hashira should be too.
after getting ready, you immediately head out of your house that you bought after receiving your first pay as a hashira.
you also took in two tsuguko. 
they helped you out maintaining the large place. one of them is just waiting for the final selection to take place and become an official part of the corps, while the other one has just started training.
watching them two puts a smile on your face. 
they're such great students. it makes you feel proud just thinking about them becoming the best swordsman they can be.
also, worried and scared. scared that they might end up with the same fate as your best friend.
but, you trust them.
and you can't deny the fact that might happen to you too, today, tomorrow, next week, or soon.
“master, please be careful!” your younger tsuguko waved goodbye to you.
“please come back home to us in one piece!” the older one said.
they looked at each other and smiled widely.
“please bring some dangos too!” they said in unison.
you chuckled and waved back to them while walking out of the house.
“okay, okay. i won’t forget. i'll leave the house to you.” you told them and headed out.
it’s been just months but they’ve become attached to you already.
your older disciple, akiro, was a kid whose sole family left was killed by a demon. the massacre of his family happened around the time when you weren't a hashira yet and was stationed to a different place. you found him, four days after getting the highest rank, aimlessly walking around the town with nothing but his torn clothes from fighting and escaping the demon.
who knows how long he must've been walking around without thinking?
you took him to your rented house during that time. he asked you why you were helping him, and you answered him, it's just natural.
when you bought your current house, he suddenly walked up to you with teary eyes and thanked you for everything you did for him, thinking that you're done taking care of him and was about to leave him. 
you laughed when you heard it, immediately replied saying that he's welcome but you never told him you're moving alone.
he was delighted to hear it, seeing how his face lit up brought a smile to your lips.
when he regained his strength and health back, he asked you to teach him about demons and how to kill them. asking him the reason for wanting to learn it, he replied that he wanted to take revenge for his family member.
it pained your heart a bit. of course, just like you, it’s not easy to forget something like that. but you gave him what he wanted and took him as your first tsuguko.
the younger one, kenji, was a feisty one when you first met him. finding him trying to survive alone in the mountain with nothing but his make-shift weapons and his own built house made of branches of trees and large leaves.
when you spotted his hideout, you thought it was a trap made by a demon in order to catch humans, but when you turned around, you saw him carrying a bundle of woods, to keep him warm for the night.
you asked him what he's doing there and he candidly answered that he lives there. he said that he ran away from his abusive mother after his beloved father died and started living on his own because no one else would take in another mouth to feed.
you know you couldn’t leave a 12-year-old boy alone in the woods. you’re surprised that he wasn’t targeted by the demons yet, but you wouldn’t wait for it to happen first before you act.
you told him that he shouldn’t live there because there could be demons lurking around and that you’ll guide him back to his house. suddenly, a sharp pointed staff almost shoots past your face, you manage to easily dodge it. 
you looked at him and flinched at the mixed look of fear and hate in his eyes. you were wrong for that, you didn’t process what he said earlier and stepped on mine. you apologized to him and just as you were about to speak again, you heard the growling of a demon about to jump at the two of you.
it was just a low-grade demon, so you immediately dealt with it with ease. but, your every slash bore your deep hatred with them as they cut through its neck. when you looked back at him, you told him that this is the reason why he can’t stay there. he was hesitant to come with you, but you promised him that you won’t bring him back to his mother.
your older disciple welcomed him and he slowly warmed up to his new found older brother. 
they are now getting along just fine. the older one became comfortable and is now a reliable one and the younger one’s now a cheerful and healthy kid.
watching them fills your heart with fuzziness and you vow to protect them with everything you could until they become full-fledged swordsmen.
you started your patrol around the area, once you didn't really get any order to eradicate a demon or investigate a suspicious case from your crow.
speaking of your crow, it went to the headquarters to get some new information and order from the master and still hasn't come back.
well, based on the time my crow arrives after sending her off is long, i can assume that the headquarters might be far from my place.
guess i'll just have to be alert and patrol around.
it was past midnight already and fortunately you’re not feeling anything suspicious or any presence of a demon.
*caw. caw.*
your eyebrows furrowed when you heard a crow, you turned your head and saw it coming your way. it was your crow finally arriving after a long trip from the headquarters to your jurisdiction.
you raise your arms to her to rest on and she immediately tells you what the leader has told you.
“the master would like to say that the monthly report for hashira’s will be happening next weekend. please be ready.” she started.
you nodded, reaching for her seed bag that you keep on you. you grabbed a fistful of seeds and thanked her for doing all of that.
“also, order! order! you are to collaborate with another hashira tomorrow in a forest that borders both of your assigned regions. lots of lower rank slayers have lost their lives! investigate and kill the demons!” 
she added and ate her seeds as soon as she finished.
another hashira? who might it be?
i’m not familiar with the rest of hashira's. i’m only talking to kanae and then the rest’s name is all i know. 
that aloof looking guy, giyuu. that loud sound hashira, uzui. that one guy who made a scene in the last meeting, i think his name was shigazunawa? 
and that one big guy who always cries…
hi… himejima?
that guy’s always crying, but when i tried talking to him last time as he was the first one to arrive and i came after, he stood in front of me and put his large hands on top of my head and he suddenly prayed.
what was that? 
i just stayed silent because i don’t want to be rude to someone older than me, but that was weird. thankfully, kanae arrived shortly after.
i hope he’s not the one i’m working with tomorrow.
great.
as you’re running on the entrance of the forest that your crow has led you to, you could already see himejima’s gigantic body from afar.
you sped up your run and stopped in front of him.
“good evening, himejima-san.” you greeted him, you bowed to him thanking him for waiting for you.
you’re here to slay numerous demons tonight. just thinking about the countless people that died in this place makes your eyes rage with anger and contempt for those atrocious monsters.
as you were raising your head, you felt his hands on the top of your head yet again.
you were about to ask what he’s doing when he started his chants. you wanted to groan in disbelief, but you can’t.
“let’s go.” he uttered as soon as he was finished and started walking towards the forest.
“yes…” you replied and fixed your hair.
seriously, what was that for?
as the two of you walk through the dark, eerie forest, himejima leads the way. the moon was supposed to be your only light, but just your luck, it’s really cloudy tonight. 
you were astonished as to how he easily perceives the structure of his surroundings and the things in front of him.
you weren’t even thinking when you suddenly talked to him.
“himejima-san, it’s amazing. y— you can easily navigate through this forest.” you complimented, realizing in the middle of the sentence that your mouth was speaking your mind, but just decided to follow through.
“mhm. i have a hearing that i enhanced in order to live normally in this world.” he answered, without stopping his feet. “you seemed to have hesitated in continuing your sentence. i can hear that you didn’t mean to say those words out loud.” he added.
he has good hearing, he said? maybe he’s using it like echolocation? or is it really echolocation?
he suddenly stopped walking that alerted you. 
you immediately went into a fighting stance, ready to cut up every single of those sickening creatures that might show up out of nowhere.
“a single thought of a demon makes your thoughts in disarray. your hatred for them is reflecting with your every move, yet it’s holding you back at the same time.” himejima blurted out, not moving an inch from where he was.
“what?” you asked him, with an annoyed face.
“(y/n),” he turned his body halfway and faced you. “your hatred for them is holding you back.”
his words strike a nerve in you. you knew he wouldn’t be able to see your offended face, so you had to use your words.
“i’m sorry, himejime-san, but what do you know about me and the things that i experienced? you’re being extremely rude for our first work together, don’t you think?” you refuted, releasing your hold on your katana grip.
she’s upset. himejima noted in his mind.
“i’m sorry for that. i didn’t mean to upset you.” he apologized.
you were still a bit offended by what he said, but knowing that you can’t move freely in this darkness and he can, you knew arguing with him is not the wisest thing to do.
“i see.” you replied and looked away.
he smiled. he knew it wasn’t a genuine reply from you, but he was at fault here, so didn’t pried more.
he continued walking to where he could feel the presence of the demons.
he also realized that should’ve chosen a friendlier topic to strike up the conversation. he didn’t want to make the first collaboration with the hashira that he’s most interested in awkward, so he tried continuing the talk.
and he did so lousily by mentioning that insight he had about you being hateful to the demons.
after the first time he ever heard her talking to the cat, he was always praying that his crow would not come to him and report that this fellow hashira died in the middle of completing a mission. 
especially when you said those words to the cat, he felt like he needed to always keep a close look at you or else you could lose yourself.
it might’ve been just imagination and self-interpretation, but still. still, he was joyful when you attended the monthly meeting of hashiras for the sixth consecutive time.
he then remembered something kanae told him last meeting.
“how are your tsugukos doing?” he asked, hoping that this time it’s the right topic.
“my tsugukos?” you repeated.
he was right on the target. he could hear how your heart skips a beat with excitement when he mentions them. it was like you forgot that you were angry at him in the first place.
she must’ve cherished them so much.
“mhm. tell me about them.” he replied, smiling while walking straight.
huh? what kind of information does he want me to tell them? uhh…
“they said they want me to bring some dangos on my way home again. i bought them some yesterday and they really liked it.” you revealed.
“yeah. dangos are delicious.” he replied briefly.
“...” 
is that what he wanted to hear or not? why isn’t he saying something?
walking in complete awkwardness, you decided to talk more about your disciples.
“well, you see. my youngest one is still training his swordsmanship, but i can definitely tell. he’ll be a much greater swordsman than i am. he told me he’ll wait until he’s 15 years old and then participate in the final selection. my oldest one is just waiting for the final selection to happen. he’s a great swordsman too, but his quick decision thinking and ability to apply them into action is his edge— ah.” you suddenly realized how much you were talking and got carried away. “sorry, i said too much.” you continued.
“no, i don’t mind.” he comforted you. 
“oh, thank you.”
the walk was a bit quiet for a moment. himejima was contemplating whether it’s good to bring up something he noticed, or just let the conversation end there.
he risked it.
“but, when you mention the final selection. i can hear you’re a bit worried.” he said, hoping that you won’t get mad again.
instead, he heard your chuckles.
“your acute hearing sure is a bad match-up for those who want to keep their secrets, aren’t they?” you laughed.
“you’re right. i was the one who trained them and refined them to be the greatest swordsman that they could. but, deep in my heart… i’m always thinking twice whether to let them participate there or not. the exam is dangerous. unless you’re ready to give everything you got and throw everything away at the same time, you won’t survive there. i know it well because i experienced it too with my friend. she was the only reason i managed to endure those grueling seven days. if it wasn’t for her, i would’ve given up right on the first day.” you babbled.
his short hums and nods tell you that he was listening intently to all of it.
“i know my two students are different from me. they’re not the type to give up on the first day, but i still can’t help but to get worried. i’m scared that they won’t be back on the morning of the eighth day. but, i also don’t want to stop them from their ambitions. i also want them to achieve their dreams and reach their goals, so i won’t stop them. i’ll protect them until they reach it. i know they’ll make me proud, just like how i am proud of them.” you finished with a smile on your face, thinking about the moment when you welcomed them back once they passed the exam.
you look up at himejima and he was looking back at you with a smile, even though you can only see white in his eyes, you know his smile is pure and genuine.
“i’m sure they are also proud to have you as their teacher.” he replied.
your eyes widened as you felt your chest get excited.
“r-really?” you sheepishly said as you looked away.
you know he couldn’t see your face getting pink, but you just can’t help it. 
why is he smiling so softly like that? i’ve never seen him even crack a smile before. it’s weird that i’ve seen this guy cry first and smile next.
preoccupied with your thoughts, you suddenly bumped on his muscular back when you didn’t notice that he suddenly stopped walking.
“there’s a demon coming.” he announced.
alerted, you immediately grabbed your sword. you took your fighting stance ready to face any demon that may come from any direction.
“behind.” himejima uttered, which you quickly responded to.
“got it.” 
you quickly turned around and found a demon lurking up a tree. once he made eye contact with you, he immediately jumped at you.
“whoo! another female with that clothes! i’m so lucky these days! keep coming!” he shouted as he tried to slash you with his sharp claws.
you kept your stance.
once he entered your reach, you drew your blade and used your breathing. 
the water breathing was originally your style, but as time passes you upgraded and turned it to ice breathing. you’re still rough around the edges as sometimes, your body subconsciously uses one of the techniques from the water breathing.
you managed to finish him off with one technique. his body plops on the ground, while his head tumbled next to a tree.
“huh?” he muttered, failing to realize that he had been beheaded. 
he watched as his body slowly turned into ashes. his eyes enlarged, his teeth grinding against each other. he moved his focus to the two hashiras talking.
“your breathing is indeed fascinating. it’s promising.” himejima praised.
“thank you so much. i’m still getting used to it, but i’m working hard on it.” you replied, putting back your sword into its hilt.
“i look forward to it, (y/n). i hope i’ll be there when you finally master that intriguing breathing.” he said and was about to start walking deeper into the woods.
the two heard the demon who's in the middle of incineration, growling his words towards you.
“argh! damn! i can't believe i got beheaded by this mere woman! die!” he uttered, the veins in his eyes almost popping from anger.
you looked down on his head and stared at him with a disgusted face.
“this mere woman didn't even break a sweat in beheading you.” you said, “hurry up and die, demon.”
just conversing with this creature makes your skin crawl with revolt. you turned your head in front and was about to take a walk, when he said something that grabbed your attention.
“ugh! kokumo-sama’s waiting for my hunt tonight!” he intoned, looking desperate and scared. “he’s going to kill me if i don’t present him something! he’ll get mad and report me to that guy!” he added.
huh? ‘kokumo’? did i hear that right?
suddenly, himejima felt it again. the same sound coming from your heart that he heard when he saw you tonight.
he turned around to see you, frozen with a shocked look on your face.
you turned your heel to the demon, walking to him without wasting any time. you grabbed his rough hair and pulled it up until his eyes were on the same level as yours.
“now… what did you just say…? who’s waiting for your hunt…?” your words, chopped yet firm. 
you never broke eye contact with him. your orbs are staring at him as if you could see even his past life as a human.
this demon was on the verge of mental breakdown, scared that he might be killed for not offering a human flesh but then realized that dying would mean he’ll be free from the fear from both kokumo and that guy, kibutsuji.
he thought that even with all the humans he killed and ate, he’s given the chance to have a peaceful passing on.
yet, here you are. glaring at him with such cold and hateful eyes. 
he felt shivers down his spine, even though it’s decapitated already. even kokumo never looked at him with this much spite.
“i— i…” he stutters, “k… kokumo…” he finally answers.
“red haori.” you said, he nodded.
“vertical line marks from his eyes downwards...” he nodded.
“... lower rank 5.” 
he shook his head sideways.
“no… lower rank… 2… now…” he corrected you. 
you were right.
not only were he still alive, he even advanced in ranks. he moved up to the position of the demon that you killed with your best friend.
you stood up, still carrying his head in your hand. you raised your arms and asked him.
“where is he?” you questioned.
you completely ignored himejima’s presence. you didn’t have time to think about him while your reopened deep abomination towards that particular demon.
the incineration reached the demon’s jaw and mouth that he couldn’t answer your question. you looked at his body and saw that hands had turned into ashes already.
“damn! use your goddamn eyes and tell me where he is!” you shouted and grabbed his face with your other hand.
“where is he?!” himejima was surprised, not only by the volume, but with the shakiness driven by hate in your voice. he walked to you and held you by your shoulder. only to be brushed off by you almost immediately.
“tell me where he is!” you shouted again to the demon with trembling eyes.
finally, he moved his eyes. he looked over your shoulder, 5 o’ clock from your position.
without wasting any moment, you threw his head away and started running to where he told that demon was.
with no choice left, himejima decided to follow you. 
he knew you couldn’t see that much in this darkness and he was right. you stumbled, tripped and everything, but you never stopped running. you will not until you find that demon.
earlier, he noted how the sound your body emits was in disarray. just like how it is every time he meets you. he thought chanting a calming prayer for you would work, but he knows it’s only temporary.
every time a demon enters your mind, you immediately feel hate and repulsion. your hatred for them is so deep and it was engraved in every cell.
you were not the type to talk about your past, so kocho couldn’t tell much to him about what happened to you that made you hate demons this much. 
sure, everyone in the corps despised them too. but, he wanted to know the reason for your feelings. that must’ve been the reason why he’s always watching over you and searching for your presence during the monthly meetings.
though, now’s not the time to ask for the reason.
right now, he can hear how disturbed your mind is. your breaths are short and fast. you're so focused on reaching the destination, that you couldn’t hear him calling for you.
“(y/n), slow—” before he could even finish what he was saying, you stopped running.
he tried to feel his surroundings. he’s sure that there is a demon close by, maybe the reason why you stopped.
meanwhile, your eyes narrowed in annoyance. in front of you is a demon who’s out to hunt, not the person you’re looking for.
you unsheathed your sword and immediately pounced on her. 
“don’t get in my way!” you screamed while running towards her and slashing her neck. 
not even sparing her decapitated body a glance, you continued running forward. himejima was calling for your name multiple times while still following your trails, yet it never reaches your ears.
i’m going to kill him!
i’m going to kill him!
that demon who took my father’s life!
these thoughts filled your mind while running past trees.
you’ve met with three more demons, but it only added to your exasperation seeing that they’re not the demon you wanted to see.
it’s actually not just three. himejima fought demons that were coming from different directions. you were so focused in front of you that you weren’t paying attention to your surroundings except for what's ahead of you.
during your interaction with the last demon, there were a lot of demons. himejima got so tangled up in defeating every last one of them, that he just saw you back still running straight in that direction.
he had no choice but to leave your side for a while, even if it put his heart in a nervous state. 
he wanted to protect you, not because he thinks you're weak and does not have the ability to protect yourself, but because right now, you’re in a complete mess. he’s afraid you might not make a sound decision because of your emotion and then find you lifeless there.
with the amount of his co-slayers dying left and right, the thought of you dying is what he hates the most.
he doesn’t understand it too, but maybe the excitement and him looking forward to every monthly report meeting and, especially, the giddy feeling he felt when you arrived tonight and he realized that you two will work together is connected to it.
yet, here you are, you ran and ran, until you reached a spot where a huge boulder was in the middle of the trees.
there, a demon was sitting on top of the rock. sitting cozily there while around him was a pile of human flesh, probably from other demons that offered him their hunt in order to not be killed.
red haori…
vertical lines from his eyes downwards…
and…
lower rank 2…
ahh… 
suddenly, it’s all coming back to me.
“(y/n), run! i’ll distract him!” “what are you doing? i told you to run!” “this is not the time to be stubborn, (y/n)! run!” “huh? your legs?” “please, just bear with it for a while and run!” “okay, thank you for listening one last time…”
the demon notices your presence. he looked down and saw a demon slayer catching up to her breath and looking rather nastily towards him.
“now, now…” he muttered, changing his position and leaning forward. “it’s been a while since i’ve seen an alive human here that’s not an offering.” 
i’m going to kill this disgusting trash. you thought as you went and jumped close to him without even thinking.
naturally, he managed to read your move and kicked you on your stomach. your body came flying back, earning you a few scratches and small open wounds.
you struggled to stand up as you held your sword firmly and looked at him. 
he stood up too and effortlessly jumped down the boulder. he took his time walking close to where you were.
you stayed on your feet, glaring and pointing your blade at him.
“you did well managing to come here without serious injury—” he suddenly halted his movements and took a good look at your face. “well, well. i might be wrong, but we’ve met before, right?”
you narrowed your eyes.
he then laughed maniacally.
“a few years ago, a parent and his child were peacefully living in a small house.” he started to narrate. 
“when one night, a demon arrived and ruined their lives!” his hands were moving in the air in a dramatic way, along with his facial expression.
“but! he was a devoted father! he doesn’t want to lose another one of his family, just like what happened with his wife…” he continued, yet this caught your attention.
how…?
“that’s why he had to distract the demon while his injured daughter ran away.” he glanced at you and smirked.
“he was left alone with the demon without knowing he was the demon’s real target! your father’s a marechi after all!” he revealed. 
you widened your eyes, promptly you went and attacked him with one of your breathing forms.
but, he was able to deflect it.
of course, he’s not like those demons you killed on your way here. this guy is at the top of the chain here. what’s more is that he’s second rank in the lower moon.
“how did you know about my mother going missing?” you asked him.
he tilted his head in confusion and sighed.
“gosh… you’re not that good up here, are you?” he said, pointing to his temple. looking at you with a pitiful expression.
“what?!” you refuted, burrowing your brows together. 
“how did i learn about it? who else would know but the victim themselves, witnesses and… the culprit.” he grinned widely.
“i mistook your mother as the one who had a marechi blood, but when i came back the next evening. it turned out that you moved somewhere else to look for your missing mother that was already in my stomach! hahaha! thankfully, i was able to find your father again. i didn’t care about you, so that was the only reason you’re still alive right now.”
your sight almost turned blurry.
she wasn’t missing nor did she run away because she got tired of living a poor life. it was this thing in front of you who took her away from you and your father.
my mother…
my father…
this demon took my family from me…
i’m going to kill him.
i’m going to kill him!
your body moved on its own. you closed your distance and tried to cut his neck, but to no avail. you failed to cut him down, because he hardened his neck.
your blade and his hard body exchanged blows. yet, it seems like you’re the only one taking the damage.
your attacks, though surely were supposed to be strong, were affected by your rapid and reckless spontaneous decision. it was erratic and weaker in force.
but, that didn’t mean he would hold back with his attack against you.
in such a short time, not even five minutes passed, you were covered with bruises and injuries. not that you had even the smallest amount of attention to look at it.
as you were blown away by his punch, you immediately got on your feet and tried to unleash another technique. 
he must admit that even though it’s evident that you’re not thinking straight, your attacks are still affecting him. 
until, he chanted the words ‘blood demon art’.
ah… that’s right, he still hasn’t used it. even though i’m beat up already. but, i can’t stop my body.
i don’t want to stop.
the only thing on my mind is wanting to see his head separated from his body.
i want to avenge my parents.
i don’t care if i wound up dead, as long as i manage to do it.
“blood demon art: countless projectiles.” he said and numerous long, black lines like the ones on his came appeared.
they moved towards you at an unbelievable speed.
nevertheless, your body was on auto-pilot. you still moved forward and still wanted to cut his head.
i don’t care anymore.
“(y/n)!” 
suddenly, himejima appeared in front of you deflecting all the attacks coming at you. somehow, it irked you.
“heh… someone capable arrived.” kokumo muttered, smirking.
“please move aside, himejima-san. i’ll kill that demon myself. don’t get in my way.” you claimed and stepped forward.
himejima tried to analyze your condition.
you were breathing heavily and it seems like every inhale is hard to do. he could hear the faint gushing sound of your blood coming out of every wound you have.
“i’m sorry, there were a lot more demons here than i thought and they stalled me.” he explained, but you didn’t respond.
“(y/n), i’ll take it from here—” 
“i said i’ll kill that demon myself!” you turned your head to him, glaring at his face. “i don’t care if i die as long as he dies too!”
before he could even reply to you, you took off and charged at kokumo one more time.
kokumo released another attack, with nothing but death on the demon in front of you in your mind, you failed to recognize his plan.
you were surrounded by almost infinite numbers of projectiles. there’s no way you could dodge all of them.
“die!” kokumo exclaimed proudly.
i’m done.
you closed your eyes to brace yourself on getting punctured by the projectiles, but it never came. 
you decided to open your eyes and found kokumo turning around as he just realized where you were. you looked up and saw himejima and his side profile as he carried you in a bridal style. he set you down and leaned your back on the boulder’s surface.
he managed to cancel his attacks in such a short time. you thought as he wiped some of the blood on your face. you wondered how he knew there was blood on your face, but you can’t question him about something like that right now.
“why are you throwing your life away so easily like that?” he said under his breath, you almost didn’t hear him. he looked rather sad rather than upset.
“it’s my life. i’ll decide when i’m throwing my life away or not.” you replied and looked at kokumo who’s getting more irritated that he’s having a hard time already with you and now someone who’s a lot stronger came. “and right now, i’m willing to throw it away as long as i kill that bastard.” you added. 
you were about to stand up once again when you saw kokumo pounce on where you two were, but himejima stopped you. 
“stone breathing second form: upper smash.” he attacked. 
he managed to hit kokumo when he threw his spiked flail upwards and pulled the chain rapidly to create a force once it hit its target. he also threw his axe and was able to cut deep through his left chest across his right chest. this caused kokumo to jump backwards as he heals himself from wounds that the spikes gave him.
“don’t get in my way, himejima-san! i’ll be the one killing him!” you shouted as you shakily stood up. using your hand by holding on to the boulder to balance your body, while your other hand is still firmly held on your sword.
himejima didn’t say anything, he didn’t look back at you. the sound of his chains getting dragged back to him was the prominent sound that you heard at that moment.
“do you not treasure your life?” he asked.
why does he keep getting in my way and asking me that? i already told him earlier that he doesn’t know anything about what i experienced and leave me alone!
fine!
“my family has been killed by that guy. my best friend was also killed by the former lower rank 2. i’ve been left alone because of these demons and you’re asking me if i treasure my life?!” you snapped at him, not noticing how your tears gathered around your eyes.
“everyone that i cherished has been killed and taken away from me already! i don’t care anymore! i don’t want—” your tears have started falling.
your emotions pouring out like an overfilled cup, but his next question left you speechless.
“aren’t your tsugukos waiting for the dangos?” he uttered, shifting his body to you.
“huh?”
it seems like your world has stopped spinning. you stood there silently with wide eyes.
my tsugukos…
akiro… kenji…
“master, this dango’s really delicious!” “you should try some, master!” “hey! kenji! that’s mine!” “eh? master wanted to eat some too!” “why would you get it from me then?” “i already ate all of mine. i can give this to master, right, ‘akiro-niisan’?” “tsk. go ahead. just know it’s not because you called me ‘nii-san’.” “yeah, yeah.”
“master, please be careful on your mission today!” “get back to us in one piece. i’ll take care of kenji here, so don’t worry.” “and, please bring some dango again, hehe!”
your knees suddenly gave up, you sat on the ground, staring at the bracelet that they both made for you. they jokingly said that it will protect you because they made it, but still you wore it. because of the same reason. 
they made it. for you.
kokumo finished healing himself and tried to use his projectiles again, but himejima, before kokumo finished his attack, flung his chain and chopped one of kokumo’s legs. he fell down and hid himself using a fort that he built with his blood demon art right there and then. at least, himejima knew that he wouldn't run away.
“you said…” himejima started. you raised your head and looked at him with blurry eyes caused by tears. “...that you’ll protect them until they achieve their goals and dreams.” 
you shook your head in denial, wanting to refute what he was about to say but no words came out of your lips. 
the picture of akiro and kenji seeing your crow arrive and thinking you’re back. but, then breaking down in tears once they’ve heard your passing kept replaying in your mind.
“are you going to throw away your life knowing your students are waiting patiently for your return and they welcome you back like always?” he asked, grabbing the chance that kokumo is hiding himself and walked to you.
he kneeled down on his one foot in front of you.
“no! no!” you finally spoke, bawling. you grabbed ahold of his green haori and looked up at him. 
“i don’t want them to suffer! i don’t want them to feel hurt again! i don’t want them to be abandoned yet again! they’re finally happy and smiling! i don’t want to see them crying again! they’re my only salvation left here in this world! i don’t want them to be left again.” you sobbed as you snuggled your face on his chest.
his large hands landed on your hair and back, pushing you closer to him providing you comfort and ease.
but, the picture of them crying wasn't leaving your mind.
i’m sorry… i’m sorry… i’m not going to throw my life carelessly anymore… 
i’ll be home later with the dangos that you two wanted, so wait for me.
you pulled away from him and wiped your face. you were still sniffing, but you were sure it wouldn’t be in the way of your breathing technique.
“i’m fine now.” you told him and he just nodded.
he stood up and stepped backwards. you looked at him when you saw him do that. you glanced at him with a confused look.
“i won’t get in your way anymore.” he said with a small smile.
“why?” you questioned, not understanding why now.
“i’m not hearing that your mind is in disarray anymore. you can do it.” he encouraged and clasped his hand together again.
you smiled.
i see. so that’s why…
you looked at kokumo, he just removed the fort he made. with an enraged face, he chanted his art technique yet again.
but, you didn’t care. not even when you’re injured and full of wounds. you closed your distance with him. when you calculated the right distance, you stopped walking.
originally, my ice breathing had only four forms. it’s a breathing that only i used, so it’s hard to make forms. 
but, i have this attack in my mind. i never executed it, even in practice, but i’m getting a feeling that i can do it.
“ice breathing fifth form: complete stillness”
it was a technique that makes the surroundings around you, with a certain distance, frozen. this makes them immobilized for three seconds.
but those three seconds are just what you need.
i’m sorry, my dear best friend, mom, and dad. 
i always thought that once i kill this guy, i’ll join you there. but, it seems like i won’t be able to now.
you see, i have two children looking forward to my return.
i���m sorry and thank you for being my will to live. i’ve found another reason to continue living too.
kokumo’s head rolled on the ground and his body soon fell over, but just as you. the exhaustion finally caught up to you. 
the difference between your body and kokumo’s is that his body fell flat on the dirty soil, while yours was immediately caught by himejima, carrying your body in a bridal style yet again.
you tried to open your eyes, you barely managed to. when you saw himejima’s face, you smiled brightly.
“himejima-san…” you called with half-lidded orbs.
“hm?” he hummed, gazing down at you. after he checked that kokumo’s body had started turning into ashes, he started walking out of the forest.
“i killed him… without dying…” you said proudly.
“you’re right. i’m relieved we’re going out of this forest both alive. you did so well. i’m proud of you.” he complimented without skipping a beat.
something did skip a beat and it’s your heart. hearing his genuine compliment and relief, puts a blush on your cheeks even though your body is so tired.
what’s more is that you’re worried that his acute hearing caught that.
ugh, so embarrassing. i’ll just pretend to be asleep.
you rested your head on his shoulder and tried to make it seem like you’ve fallen asleep.
cute. himejima chuckled silently.
“master?” akiro uttered confusedly.
it was already dawn and they were both up. kenji heard what he said and excitedly went to the door to welcome you. 
“eh?” he said, just as confused as the other boy.
himejima-san??? 
you still had your arms wrapped tightly around his neck, but this time out of embarrassment.
i didn’t think he would walk me back to my house while carrying me!
please put me down!
but, i can’t say it!
people are staring!
you peeked and tried to look if you were close to your house already. your crow did the work of guiding him to where your residence is, because you realized he’s going to carry you, so you hid your face.
you saw akiro and kenji on the front door with confused looks on their faces.
“h-himejima-san, we’re close to my house already, so you can put me down already. i’ll walk on my own now—” 
“no. you hurt your feet in the fight, you’re not supposed to be walking.” he cut you off and continued walking. 
he heard a conversation about their ‘master’, so he knew what direction he would be going.
he stopped right in front of them, looming over the two children with his enormous height. they were obviously frightened.
“p-please give us back our master.” akiro asked.
“what did you do to our master?!” kenji interrogated, while akira shielded him securely behind him.
akiro examined the man carrying you and noticed that he was wearing the same uniform as yours and his golden buttons.
you tapped on himejima’s back, signaling him to let you down. finally putting you down carefully, supporting your back as you get on your feet.
you looked over to akiro and kenji and smiled.
they were still confused, but slowly made their way to you. 
you kneeled down. for their ages, they’re quite tall, making you gaze up at them. you opened your arms and pulled them into an embrace.
“i’m home…” you whispered, hugging them even tighter.
the two children were surprised, you’ve come home from missions, easy and perilous missions, but you never came home in this manner.
akiro was about to ask what happened when he heard you sniffle. he worriedly peeked at the younger one and was about to ask if he knew what’s happening, only to see him bawling already.
“wahhh! why are you crying, master?” he cried, snuggling his face on your clothes.
“mhm-mm.” you shook your head. you withdrew from the hug, but kenji didn’t want to let go, that’s why he continued hugging you. 
“nothing. i’m just happy i was able to come back home.” you answered him, caressing his head.
you looked at akiro and put your hand over his cheeks lightly.
“akiro, where’s my ‘welcome back’?” you asked, chuckling softly.
he doesn’t understand it. 
the reason why you came home crying, why you’re doing this, and why you’re being like this.
he doesn’t understand why it makes him feel relieved that you look like you’ve finally lifted off of the heavy weight on your back that you never talked about.
he doesn’t understand why you’re looking at them like your world is them.
he doesn’t understand why he feels so overwhelmed seeing you like this when he doesn’t even understand anything.
yet, he can’t stop his tears as you wait for him and stare at him tenderly.
“w… welcome back, master.” he welcomed finally as he nestled himself next to his brother.
you looked behind and met himejima, crying as usual, as he listened to the three of you.
“himejima-san. thank you for making me realize i have something to protect.” you thanked him, smiling and hoping he could hear your genuine grateful feelings.
he smiled, though tears continued flowing.
“no…” he replied smiling and suddenly remembered something.
“more importantly,” he lifted his hands and you laughed. 
akiro and kenji looked up while wiping their tears and they suddenly lit up. 
“shall we eat this now?” he raised the bag on his hands and inside are dangos that are waiting to be consumed.
“dango!” the two boys said in unison.
kenji ran to him and himejima gave him the bag. the boy happily cheered, completely forgetting how scared he was by the person in front of him earlier. himejima just ruffled his hair and kenji pulled him by his fingers to come inside the estate.
akiro helped you get up, you limped while walking and accidentally let out a hiss in pain. until, himejima once again carried you.
“himejima-san! i’m fine! oh gosh…” you said to him.
he raised his brow in confusion.
“you’re obviously not.” he muttered matter-of-factly.
“akiro—” you were about to say to akiro that you can just ask akiro to support you while walking, but the kid was not there anymore.
you looked at the front and he was there with kenji, who was delighted by the dango, and akira was giving you a teasing look.
that kid!
ugh… it’s so embarrassing!
it’s even more embarrassing knowing he can surely hear how fast my heart is thumping right now!
“me too…” he suddenly spoke.
you glanced up at him.
“thank you.” he thanked you.
“huh? why? i didn’t do anything though…” you were muddled by what he’s saying.
the corner of his lips moving upwards, it’s not visible but from your position, it’s easy to point out.
“i also realized that i have someone to protect outside of my responsibility as a demon slayer.” he said.
“huh?” i did that? “when did i—”
“for the next hashira meeting next week, i’m hoping for your presence there in a full condition.” he said while he set you down on the tatami floor.
akiro and kenji went to get silverwares to eat the dangos, leaving both of you alone in the living room.
“i’ll try my best to recover fast.” you promised, looking at all your wounds and injuries that were already aided by the kakushis, that you didn’t hear what he whispered.
“...say it to you.” were the only words you caught.
“what was that?” you asked him, but akiro and kenji came back from the kitchen.
“let’s eat this now before it gets chewy.” he redirected your attention.
he sat in front of you while akira occupied the left side of the table and kenji did for the right side.
the boys started eating and exclaimed how delicious it was. you decided to eat some too, picking up one stick and gently taking a bite.
himejima silently listened to all of you enjoying the taste of the sweet. he smiled as he focused on your voice.
“please eat up, himejima-san.” you offered him, reaching for another stick and gave it to him. “it’s really delicious.”
“i see. i’ll try some too, then.” he said and took a bite. “it really is delicious.”
“see!” you chuckled.
it made him smile and thought to himself.
‘during those seven days before the meeting, i’ll be sure that what i’m feeling is much more than wanting to reason for your hatred for demons. so, please be there when i finally get the courage to say it to you.’, that's what i said earlier, but now i’m certain.
it wasn’t a kind of worry you will have for your colleague.
i wasn’t familiar with this feeling, so i thought it was just normal.
i’ll just pray she’ll accept my feelings.
‘(y/n), i know you don’t need protection. you’re strong after all. i’ll still promise that i'll always protect you and those who are precious to you.’
i want to say that to you.
but, not now.
you’ve just realized that witnessing these two precious boys' growth are worth living for and you should only be focusing on that for now.
“i look forward to that day.” he muttered to himself and took another bite.
Tumblr media
hope you enjoyed that one, because i did. reblogs would be much appreciated!
if you'd like to support me and my broke ass, you can tip me at my ko-fi acc! thank you very much!

calling them with another name
suna rintarou, kuroo tetsurou, tsukishima kei
cw: accident (it's just kuroo being an idiot)
here's the second part!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
suna rintarou
Tumblr media
it's the weekend and you decided to spend your time at your boyfriend's house. his family is out of town and he said he's bored.
but part of the reason you went there is to try out the "calling your boyfriend another name prank". you wanted to know how he'll react so you concluded to do this today.
you two are now on the couch watching netflix, while he uses your lap as a pillow. you have been thinking of the right time to carry out the plan, but you can't seem to find it.
“i'm getting hungry.” he muttered out of nowhere.
this it is! 
“me too.” you replied to him, putting your hand on your tummy. he noticed that and then he thought of burying his face onto your stomach, and he did.
“what do you want to eat?” he asked, making your tummy feel the vibrations every time he speaks.
“hmmm... i don't kno— ah! how about chicken wings?” your eyes glimmered at your suggestion. he looked up at you and smiled, agreeing with you.
he reached for his phone and started to search for somewhere to order, still laying on your lap.
“ah, also can you order drinks too, kyousuke? oh— mhm.” you 'innocently' asked him, while your eyes are focused on the tv.
the bomb has been planted. 
“oka—” he halted his mouth as soon as he reviewed what you just called him.
he raised his eyebrows and furrowed it, giving you a 'what-did-you-just-called-me-?' look.
you bite your lower lips, trying to hold back your laughter as you can feel him staring at you from his position.
when he didn't get a reaction from you, even with that glaring he did. he fixed his form and forcibly made you look into his eyes.
“excuse me, ma'am, but what did you call your boyfriend?” he asked seriously, pressing his palms deeper on your cheeks.
“uh? rin?”
“oh no, that's not what you named me just now. who is this kyousuke bastard? you even realized you said the wrong name.” he said, freeing your face and standing up.
“kyousuke? i don't know anyone named kyousuke. i don’t know what you’re talking about.” you said putting up your act.
after you said that, he just sat back on the couch, but now with a grumpy face and mood.
“when's the food coming?” you asked, changing the topic.
“never.” he shortly answered.
“what? why?” you paused the movie and shook his arms playfully.
“i don't know either. why don't you ask the kyousuke guy? maybe he knows why.” he answered, he stretched his arms and turned his back and played something, anything on his phone.
omg, is he mad? damn, he's mad, but... 
“bwahahahahaha!” you suddenly burst out laughing while you hit his back. “rin! oh my gosh— hahahaha!” you were completely broken because of his reaction to the prank.
“what is wrong with you? suddenly calling me names and now laughing out of nowhere!” he said removing your hitting hand off of his back.
“oh, rin.” you wiped the tears of laughter in the corner of your eyes and hugged him, taking him by surprise. “my wittle rin is jealous, aren't you?— bwahahahahaha!” you burst out again.
you just can't get your mind off of how cute it was, considering suna rintarou rarely showed emotion on his face.
“it was just a prank, rin. sorry, sorry.” you confessed.
he finally sank in his mind all the videos in tiktok he saw, where they prank their boyfriends and how can he fail to forget that set up?
“i'm never ordering you chicken wings again.” he said suddenly that made you crack up again.
“so, you still ordered it for me, rin.” 
suna swears in his mind that he'll get you back. not now, but he definitely will.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
kuroo tetsurou 
Tumblr media
you are the manager of the nekoma boys volleyball club and lately, your boyfriend, the nekoma's captain, kuroo tetsurou has been teasing and getting on your nerves for the last couple of days and you decided to take revenge today. with the help of kenma on what you will do, you two took the idea of calling him by another name.
after changing, you stepped into the court, as usual, kuroo sent a flying kiss to your position as soon as he saw you, but you dodged the air as if you were not accepting it. kuroo knew what he was doing for the past few days, so he was not offended by it, instead, he just laughed his ass off.
right after you filled their water bottles, coach nekomata called in for a ten-minute break. you were distributing it when kenma gave you a sign that right now is the perfect time to commence the plan.
after you gave kenma's bottle, you extended your arms to your boyfriend and he just smiled widely and you're sure he's planning something again, just like how he is doing recently.
he suddenly held you on your wrist and pulled you to his chest, and the reason he keeps on doing this teasing is because of the genuine response he's receiving from you.
“w-what?!” you slapped his arms, even with a blush on your face.
he lifted your chin and angled your face, instinctively you closed your eyes and pooched your lips, but when no contact happened, you opened your eyes and saw him already rolling on the floor.
this jerk... hah! sorry, but i won't let things go your way this time! 
“gosh! you keep on teasing me these days, rai! i'll definitely have my revenge soon.” you declared and made your way to pass yaku's water to him.
kuroo blinked once, blinked twice and thrice, but nothing changed. did you just call him 'rai'? 
he regained his posture and was about to reach out to you, but the break was already finished.
you clenched your fist, bit your lower lips and even felt your nose enlarging now and then, trying to contain your laughter as you see kuroo keeps glancing at you, every time he can.
wah, this is the best revenge. 
“ouch!” 
everyone was alerted by the cry and it turned out kuroo was hit by taketora's spike because he was not paying attention. coach nekomata told him to go check it in the clinic and asked you to come with him. you worriedly led him to the infirmary and unfortunately, the nurse was out, so you just decided to wait for them while you try to keep him in the right condition.
“are you worried?” kuroo asked you, while you trace his head if there's any bump.
“of course, i am. are you crazy?” you answered annoyed at his question.
“no, you can't. your boyfriend will get mad.” he said, trying to sound different.
what— ah. he's still there, he seems alright already.
“what are you saying? you're my boyfriend.” you said blanky.
“i am your boyfriend?! sorry, but my name isn't rai! newsflash my girlfriend is cheating on me with a jerk named ra—” you quickly covered his mouth, looked around and at the door.
“idiot! you're too noisy! we're in the infirmary!” he removed your hands from his mouth and pulled you to a hug.  a tight one.
okay, now i feel bad.
“i was just trying to prank you, tetsu. you've been under my skin recently and i thought i will get back at you. sorry.” you said stroking his hair. he tightened the hug and you leaned down to kiss his hair.
“okay, cut!” you two flinched when you heard someone clapping and looked behind you. yaku, lev and kenma were there standing at the door.
“you two took so long to come back.” yaku looked so disgusted, lev wondering what the hell is happening and kenma just looking away.
“watching you two being lovey-dovey disgust me from the bottom of my heart,” yaku exclaimed.
“really? didn't know you have a heart, yakkun.” you replied.
“eh? yaku-san, you don't have a heart?” lev asked, intently.
“lev, shut up.” kenma muttered, looking like he'd have enough of lev.
“what do i do? my teammates are jealous of our relationship.” kuroo said and sighed.
“like hell we are!” yaku protests.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
tsukishima kei 
Tumblr media
the finals are coming up and you and your boyfriend, tsukishima kei, decided to study together, so you can ask him if you ever don't understand something. he's fine with it, so now you're in his room holding your notebook with a scowl on your face.
“what's wrong?” tsukishima asks as soon as he looks at your face.
“i don't understand anything at all.”  you plopped on the table and buried your face in the book.
“want me to teach you?” he asked as he browsed his notes. you shook your head still on the table.
“no, i need a break.” you said and stood up. you throw yourself on his bed and reach for your phone.
“we just started ten minutes ago, you know?” he smirked as he wrote down pointers for you.
“shut up.” you pouted and tapped on the tiktok icon on your phone.
not even a minute passed, a video played on your fyp and it was about pranking their boyfriends by calling them by a different name. thankfully, you're wearing earphones so, he can't hear what you are watching and chose to do it to your own boyfriend.
you exit the app and place your phone on his nightstand. you sat down again at the table and opposite to him, he raised his eyebrows.
“i thought you were going to take a break from the ten-minute study you did?” he teased you.
“well, i just decided to be a good student starting now, so i'll be doing my best to study.” you stated hiding your dark plan behind the face you're putting up.
after minutes of pretending to study, you took your notes and sat next to him.
“hey,” you started. he looked at you and placed his hand on your hip.
“mhm?” he hummed.
wait, he's being touchy and sweet right now, should i continue or abandon the plan for now? argh! whatever! 
“i can't understand this, can you explain this to me, furuya?” you said pointing something in your notebook.
i did it! how will kei react?! 
it took a few seconds before tsukishima spoke up.
“first, you need to do this…”
huh? no response? you sighed. i knew it, he wouldn't react to something like that, he probably thought i just called him by another name by mistake. 
after he explained what you asked, you just decided to really study now, and an hour passed.
“how about we take a break?” tsukishima suggested. you just nodded, you felt like all your energy was just sucked out of your body. “i'm going to go get refreshments.” he said standing up and walking to the door.
“okay.” you replied, your eyes already gave up.
“just lay down on the bed if you're too tired, i'll be back, akemi.” he said.
you opened your eyes wide and looked at his way hastily.
“kei, what the fuck?!” you cursed, completely shaken.
“huh?” he asked you, even tilting his head.
“who is this akemi girl you just called me?!” you walked to him, your eyebrows furrowing together.
“akemi? who's that? i don't know any akemi.” he answered.
“no, you just called me akemi!” you defended.
“i really don't know, maybe you should ask that furuya guy?” he said, crossing his arms and leaning on the door.
“huh?” furuya? “gosh, kei!” you hit his chest and glared at him.
he laughed looking at you, worried about who the akemi he just called.
“damn you.”
“too bad. i didn't fall into your trap.” he said and walked to the table.
“i'll have my revenge next time, just you wait.” you said, determined that you'll get a reaction from him in the future.
“are you sure you should say that?” he leaned down and grabbed his phone that was placed in the pot.
“what do you mean?” you wondered.
"kei, what the fuck?" "huh?" "who is this akemi girl you just called me?" "akemi? who's th—" 
you widened your eyes and your blood rose to your cheeks as you heard your voice.
“kei! delete that!”

Tumblr media
when they caught on to your crush on them.
himejima gyomei, rengoku kyoujurou, shinazugawa sanemi
kinda not sure if i made this right lmao
enjoyyyyyy
Tumblr media Tumblr media
himejima gyomei.
Tumblr media
he didn’t really mean to eavesdrop on your conversation with shinobu and learned that you were interested in him.
he was just there to visit a demon slayer that he saved during his last mission and was sent there to be treated and you just happened to do your follow-up check up to see if you can go to work already, but somehow it ended up with you two sharing getting hooked up in your conversation.
he felt really bad for unintentionally listening, but also a little, just a little, happy he did.
somehow, he finally understood why he heard that coming from you too.
the same sound he hears every time obanai and kanroji are close to each other.
so, it was because of that. he thought he was just hearing things, as ridiculous as it may sound.
you continued to explain to the insect hashira how you found him amazing from the first time you saw him, which was when he saved you from a demon who wanted to devour you as you’re walking home. 
saying, it’s impossible not to fall in love with the man who protected you and saved you. you also revealed that he was the reason you joined the corps.
hearing how you continued to flatter and praise him without knowing he’s close by— his feet just won’t move and his brain never got the thought to move— he started feeling this unfamiliar feeling.
‘does she really think of me that way?’ he thought, as he looked away, his ear starting to heat up.
he finally got the courage to move to where you two were when shinobu asked you: “do you have any plans on confessing to him?” 
he stopped walking again. he asked himself why, but he couldn't find the answer. was it because he wanted to know too? he had no idea.
“i will. soon. not now, though. soon when i’m standing on the same stage as him. i want to be a hashira first. i wanted to be someone worthy of him.” 
your answer made him smile, his heart softened with your resolve.
his heel turned and he walked back to where he came from, still smiling a bit.
next time, when you two encounter again, he’ll try to help you and give you tips, so you can achieve your goal, all while he tries to act like he’s not aware of your feelings for him.
the question is, will he successfully act like he doesn’t know it?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
rengoku kyojurou
Tumblr media
he thought he was just overthinking things.
there’s no way there’s that difference on how you treat him to other men.
he first took note of it, when he’s eating at your family’s restaurant, where he usually eats before he comes home after patrolling.
you talk to him with such enthusiasm, joy, and adoration on your face, but when someone calls for you to order, it immediately disappears. giving them a stoic and indifferent look on your face.
he thought that might be just a mistake. there’s no way there’s that much difference.
he’s pretty sure of that, that’s why he put it on a test. he asked one of the slayers he knew to come with him to the restaurant and one agreed to accompany him.
an attractive one, even more.
when they arrived, his subordinate entered the place first, making you greet him with your usual cold tone, but as soon as rengoku stepped inside, your whole demeanor changed.
after that they ordered, rengoku letting him order for the both of them.
you note down what he told you their order, while he seems to be not bothered by casual indifference, thinking that this is just how you usually deal with customers, he’s just happy that the hashira invited him to share a meal together.
but when rengoku spoke, they were both dumbfounded by how easily your mood changes.
when you left to tell the cook their orders, the guy turned to rengoku saying: “wow, she was like a whole new different person.”, he says chuckling.
the flame hashira could only nod, following your figure with his eyes. ‘does that answer my question then?’
he brought along an attractive man, yet that didn’t change how you treat him along with the other customers.
would it be alright for him to assume that you…
and as if the guy was going along the cue life had given him asked, “does she like you?”, with a big smile on his lips.
he didn’t answer, instead he just diverted the conversation into another topic.
now, if you’re thinking that rengoku is the type to straightforwardly ask the person if they like him, then you’re wrong.
he’ll actually act as if he didn’t uncover a big revelation. he’ll still be the same rengoku you liked and would never subtly tease you about your crush on him.
he’ll actually start to notice things about you, now that he started to watch you sometimes.
he will try to get to know you better while trying not to be too noticeable.
well, maybe in the future, you two will share a conversation with only the two of you and by then, you’ll be able to talk more about personal things… like your feelings…
Tumblr media Tumblr media
shinazugawa sanemi
Tumblr media
whenever it’s time for the monthly hashira meeting, it’s normal for him to be the first one in order to be the one to greet the master before their meeting starts.
but, lately the new hashira keeps beating him to it. yes, it was you.
even if he tries to arrive there 3 hours before the meeting, he’ll find you there already, greeting him with a wide smile on your face.
it would’ve irritated him whenever you kept interfering with his plan of paying respect to the leader himself, but he can’t deny the fact that you were punctual by arriving there earlier than the rest of them.
so, he couldn’t really get mad at you. 
actually, he didn’t mind sharing a conversation with you while waiting for the others.
but, the day he realized that there might be a bit more to you going to the meeting early came.
it was when he had an unexpected situation the night before the meeting and had to send his crow to tell the master that he wouldn’t be able to come. 
after a few hours, his crow came back. though it usually just takes his crow to deliver and come back in one or two hours. hm… weird, but okay… he brushed it off.
the next morning came and when he went to finish things that made him was already taken care of. 
at that time, he still had the time to go attend the meeting barely before it started, so he immediately headed out.
when he got there, he was surprised to see you taking your time as you walked along the path to the entrance to ubuyashiki's residence. 
he even thought it was a different person, because there’s no way you would be here when you’re always so early whenever the meeting is held.
when he caught up to you, because you sure was taking your sweet time, he was certain already that it was you.
“what are you still doing here?”, he asked you, speaking suddenly next to you. 
when he looked at your face, it was a mixture of surprise and shock. you asked him what he’s doing there when he was supposed to be absent for the meeting.
he just explained to you what happened, but he found you not listening and looking somewhere else. confused, he followed your line of sight.
there, he saw his crow, seemingly trying to make a move on yours. he furrowed his head. ‘what is that damn bird doing?’, he thought to himself. 
“your crow said you won’t be able to attend the meeting.”, he heard you whispering to yourself. he was immediately hooked on what you said and then slowly… he pieced one thing to another.
“don’t tell me… did my crow take a detour to your place yesterday?”, he didn’t miss the slight flinch you did when he asked the question.
“so, he did, huh…”  he said, nodding. you didn’t answer and just looked away, turning your back to him.
but, he realized another thing.
“did he… also tell you about me going to the meetings early…?”, he asked while staring at the back of your head.
you snapped your head and shook your head repeatedly. “no!”, you denied with conviction.
he listened while you explained that you heard from kanroji that he’s always early and never forced his crow to tell you anything about him. he watched how your face slowly turned red, rattled about his question. 
‘why is she so embarrassed about it? so much that she’s turning red?’, he thought to himself.
‘isn’t it good that she’s trying to be punctual because of him? or… is there… another reason…?’
but… he doesn't want to think that your reason might be the same as what he was thinking.
“d… do you…”, he started, stopping you in your trail of defense.
as he stares at you, his voice seemingly caught in his throat. he tried to speak up and continue his sentence, but he can’t appear to do it.
he then shook his head, making you confused.
“no. it’s nothing. let’s hurry up before we get late.”, he brushed off and then started walking again. he also called his crow and told him to stop flirting already.
you just followed behind him. you were aware that he realized it, but wondered why he didn’t say anything.
well, it’s because he doesn’t believe it.
he doesn’t want to admit that he thinks you like him. he should be focusing on protecting the civilians and not mind himself with love.
ah, yeah— yes, yes, that’s the reason. that’s definitely the reason.
it’s absolutely not because he’s flustered and he can’t think clearly. yeah, absolutely not.
he might get a bit weird for the next few times when you two meet again, but remember it’s not because he’s embarrassed, okay?!

recovered kenma! who once again announced to his fans and viewers that he would not be streaming that day, because he has matters to attend to, something more important than the reason yesterday

birthday.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
kozume kenma x reader
wc: 758 words
happy birthday to my animal spirit in hq! love you so much, pls fund my tuition, ehe
Tumblr media
kenma woke up just as usual.
after washing his face and eating, he immediately sat on his gaming chair and logged into the game he found just recently, but he already mastered it in just days.
he played all day without thinking about volleyball since it's the weekend and his parents are out for a trip.
yes, it's his birthday, but it's not like it's a special day for everyone. 
so why not just treat it like a usual day? maybe a few thank you's for the people who greeted him on his social media. he thinks.
it's not like he's looking forward to celebrating it too, but he's excited to receive a greeting from a certain person.
that moment he finally set loose the switch off of his hands. he threw his head backwards, resting it on the pillow of his chair. 
he wondered what you are doing as of now.
his logical mind suddenly occupied his brain and had his thoughts made a conversation with himself.
today is my birthday. even if no one says it, the person celebrating their birth can have a greater opportunity than other people, just for that day.
should i take the chance? 
will it break the relationship with the two? 
would i get in trouble if i confess to (y/n)? 
he smiled at the thought of you beside him, holding his hands, playing and styling his hair while he plays his games, joining you as you stay up to study. 
how nice it would be.
his thoughts were suddenly disrupted by the sound of the doorbell going off.
he groaned and sluggishly walked to his door to go see who ruined his imagination.
he took the last step of the stairs looking at the ground.
*pop* 
“happy birthday, kenma!” 
kenma jumped like a kitten with the party poppers going off. with wide eyes, he stared at the people smiling widely at him.
“kenma!” yamamoto called for him. “we know you don't like a lot of people gathering for you, so we just invited the team and your parents lent us a spare to your front door.” he explained.
“oh, thank you.” kenma thanked them while he looked at the surprise they planned for him.
after they handed him their presents for the birthday boy, they started eating the foods everyone brought.
“kenma!” you called for the setter. 
he immediately turned around with excited eyes.
ah, there she is. 
damn, her voice is so soothing for my ears. 
“h-hey.” he anxiously addressed you.
“sorry, we were late. tetsu was making a fuss that you liked apple pie even more than pudding. you told me that, right?” you said as you showed him the box of pudding you picked for him.
“it—” you both looked behind you when kuroo suddenly interrupted.
“as i said, kenma likes apple pie more. don't underestimate my friendship with him since childhood.” kuroo said confidently and raised his hand holding a box of apple pie.
“shut up! kenma himself told me that!” you defended.
kenma looked back and forth between you and kuroo before looking at the food you two had in front of him.
he took yours first, before taking kuroo's, making you smile widely.
“what i said back then was that pudding is good, but i prefer apple pie more.” he recalled that it causes your mouth to hang open, while he just stared at the food he's holding.
when you remembered his words, you put both of your hands on your face to cover yourself from the embarrassment.
“sorry!” you said and made kuroo laugh hysterically.
after kuroo laughed, he regained his posture and turned your body— still with your hands on your face— to him, before giving you a kiss on the forehead.
“well, better luck next time, babe.” he said, removing the palms off your face.
kenma continued to stare at the edibles, as he smiled bitterly.
so she wasn't paying attention to me that time? oh— haha. 
i remember now. kuroo was there that time too.
'holding hands, playing and styling his hair, staying up late...' i'm so pathetic.
how can i imagine doing that with her when she'd rather do that with him? my best friend.
he looked up at you two. 
kuroo holding your face, still laughing, while you deadpan him, but soon a smile formed on your lips.
“thank you for the apple pie and pudding.” he said smiling, but praying that you don’t notice how fake his smile was.
“happy birthday to me, i guess.”

why people bother with love.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
sawamura daichi x reader
wc: 9.2k
this is the longest fic that i've ever written, omg. i love daichi sm<33
also the story is inspired by taylor swift's song 'mine'! i was listening to it while on shuffle playlist and thought it was so good.
Tumblr media
a happy and lovely family.
it's the farthest from what your family was.
all your parents did was fight at every little thing that can be talked through.
it was also the reason why you and your siblings are not close with each other. they hide or run away whenever they're fighting, which means, always.
but, they did tell you once.
“they were so deeply in love with each other in the past.”
so, just in the past?
i don't understand.
“then, you shouldn't have spent it on useless things!” 
your father's voice made your ears ring. it's in the middle of the night.
they're fighting again. 
this is supposed to be a day for me. i just graduated from elementary school today.
“useless?! you call that useless?!” your mother shouted back.
you decided to get off of the bed and silently walk to where the voices are coming from, the kitchen.
“of course, it is!” your father replied.
“our daughter just graduated and you're saying that buying her a small gift is useless?!” your mother asked.
i knew it. it's about that.
you peeked from the opening in the living room which was connected to the kitchen.
“just tell her ‘congratulations!’ or anything! why bother spending money?! we're not rich!” your father rebutted.
“are you hearing yourself right now, huh?” your mother snickered. “what are you even mad about? it's not even over ¥500?”
“you could've used that ¥500 for something more important! like food stocks or bills!” 
“her, graduating is important! don’t you dare not acknowledge your daughter’s milestone!”
maybe i should just give them back a ¥500 that i saved from my daily allowance? would that stop them from fighting?
“arhg! you and your obtuse actions!” your father slammed the counter with his balled fist.
“what?! you're one to talk! that stupid "friend" of yours who always borrows money from you! where is he now, huh? out there partying and spending the money you lent him! what did he say? "i'll give it back tomorrow!" i never once saw him return the money he borrows, yet you keep on giving and giving him! what are you, a bank?!” your mother snapped.
“shut up!” your father shouted and clicked his tongue. “you always bring that up! you're always like that! i'm tired of you already!”
“guess who's tired of you too?” your mother crossed her arms and stared at your father blankly.
“is that so? then i'm leaving and never going back here!” your father had enough and walked out.
he met your eyes and was surprised for a bit, but he continued walking to the front door.
you looked at your mother.
she still had her arms crossed above her chest, but she clenched her hands tightly and was biting on her lower lip.
“mom, are you not going to run after dad?” you stepped out from hiding.
your mother flinched, but she quickly realized that you must've heard the whole conversation already.
“why would i? it was his decision to leave! i don't care about him anymore! i'm glad i finally got tired of his ass!” she said and went to get water.
what? 
you say that, but why do you look so hurt?
“your hands are quivering, mom.”
as your eyebrows furrowed, you heard the engine starting. you look at the door's direction and run towards it. when you stepped out, you saw your father just hopped on his mini truck.
he saw you running to him. he rolled his window down.
“dad, when are you coming back?” you asked him.
he just smiled achingly at you.
“sorry.” he muttered. you, confused, tilted your 
“don't worry, i'd still be there for you, siblings.” he shortly answered.
“what about mom?” you questioned.
“i don't care anymore. i can't bring myself to love her anymore. sorry.” he said and grabbed the steering wheel tightly. he then said goodbye and drove off.
i don't understand.
“they were so deeply in love with each other in the past.”
did their love for each other fade away?
i really don't understand…
love…
“why does everyone bother with it if it never lasts?”
why do we need to fall in love, just to experience the anguish of losing the feeling of it?
•••
“hurry! hurry! their match is already starting!” your friend pulls your hand, as you follow her lead.
“okay, okay.” you answered with no enthusiasm.
what am i going to do there anyways? i don't even know the rules in volleyball.
“why are we watching a boys volleyball game in the first place?” you asked her.
“it's our school's team! they can represent miyagi in the spring high tournament, if they win against the team they're playing today.” she said,
okay, still didn't anyways why we should be here.
when you two reached the bleachers, your other classmates waved at you and pointed at the seat they reserved for you both.
the first set just finished when you arrived. you just used the cheering megaphone they handed you and just created some noise as the players walked on the court.
“kageyama-sama, do your best!” you heard your friend scream her heart out.
that answers my question. also, what do you mean, "-sama"? you're older than him, right?
you sighed and just continued cheering.
the umpire blew the whistle and signaled that the second set was starting. you watched as a guy with bowl-cut from the opposing team serves.
your eyes widened a bit seeing how hard he serves, you were so sure no one could receive it.
but, the guy was there to break your thoughts.
he easily receives it, making your eyes widened even more.
as soon as he received it, they ran towards the net and he hit the ball over the other team, earning them the first point of the set.
wow. 
your mouth hangs open.
“h-hey,” you called for your friend's attention. “who was that?”
“who? the one who sets?! that's kageyama! he's a firs—”
“no, the one who hits the ball.” you immediately stopped her.
“oh, that's the captain, sawamura daichi, from class 4. i think he's friends with sugawara too.” she answered shortly, now that the topic is not kageyama anymore.
number 1… that means he's the captain, right?
the match continued and they won the set. they lost the third, but won the fourth.
you were hanging on your seat as the set, supposed to be just 15, goes over to 20 and you cling to your friend tightly as the final whistle was heard and karasuno was declared the winner.
“wah! kageyama-sama, congratulations!” your friend bawled out.
“he's amazing too, right?” you said as you clapped, seeing sawamura receive the trophy.
“of course! he's kageyama-sama's teammate, after all!” she said, still dragging kageyama to the conversation.
when it was time to move out, your friend said she needed to go to the toilet, so you went there with her.
as you two passed the entrance to the gym floor, you saw the black uniforms standing there.
oh, they're here.
“sugawara!” your friend suddenly shouted, calling for your classmates' attention. almost all of them looked in your direction. “congratulations!” she said,
“oh! thanks!” sugawara replied, waving his hand in the air with a big smile.
you thought you might as well congratulate your classmate.
“congratulations, sugawara.” you said, not as loud as your friend's voice, but enough for him to hear.
“ah! (y/n), thanks!” he thanked you.
you two then bowed to them and continued to go to the bathroom, all while your friend celebrated that he got kageyama's attention earlier too.
“okay, i got it already. just go and hurry up.” you shut her up when you reached the comfort room.
you just walked to a close bench to the bathroom and took a seat, waiting patiently for your friend to finish.
“hey,” you heard a voice say.
you're not sure whether they're talking to you or not, but you looked up at where it came from.
“you're…” you started and stood on your feet. “sawamura, right?”
“uh, yeah. i'm sawamura.” he said as he reached for his nape and rubbed it with his palms awkwardly.
“you were so awesome in the game earlier. congrats.” you told him and smiled.
“thanks. i actually think i look unsightly during the game, especially when i'm just running and moving on fumes.” he replied sheepishly.
“well, the fact that you think that and yet you still do it just shows how passionate you are about winning.” you uttered. “still, don't worry. you look cool.” you reassured him.
“really? that's a relief.” he said and sighs relievedly.
there was a few seconds of silence after that and you just stared at each other.
“um… why did you… uhm, approach me?” you asked.
he suddenly gets a bit of tint pink shade on his cheeks, that can be easily missed if you were not looking carefully. maybe the reason, you noticed it also was the fact that his bruised on his left cheeks got your attention.
“well, you see… we won against shiratorizawa.” he started and you hummed. “so, we're already qualified for the spring high, i was just wondering if you'll be watching there too.” he asked.
“why? is my presence needed there?” you confusedly asked, making him chortle.
“for me, it definitely does, haha.” he answered, straightforwardly.
it skipped a beat. my heart just did.
i know these feelings very well. it's the feeling i swore not to follow.
i know where these feelings would bring me to.
“i see. i'll look forward to it then.”
i should've declined back then.
•••
“ever since you moved here, it never got quiet here anymore!”
your old woman neighbor is once again shouting in front of your house. 
she's always there and she always just does it whenever sawamura is at work or out for something. it was easy to know since she knows he's a police officer and the police car is not in the parking lot.
you continued to bite your lower lip. 
trying to stop yourself from shouting back at the old woman was harder than you thought.
the neighbors said she has a mental disorder, but still her voice. her voice can easily break a plate or two.
normally, you would just ignore her until she leaves, but today you're not like those days. your menstruation started this morning, and the blood got onto the sheets, so you had changed it. 
moving around irritates you, but you had no choice but to do the chores, before your husband arrives, since it's just you two in the house and you're off to work today.
speaking of your husband, you looked at the clock and saw the time.
‘where are you?’ ‘your shift should've finished a while ago.’ ‘can you go home already?’
you stared at your phone and waited for him to reply, but he didn't. you just stood up and went to the kitchen.
ah, she left. you thought as you managed to peek outside the window while you walked to the kitchen.
thank goodness, finally.
“guess, i should reheat this.” you muttered to yourself and sighed.
you placed the dinner you cooked, inside the microwave. as you wait for it, you remembered that you haven't looked at the mail today yet.
you hurriedly went outside and opened the mailbox.
“huh?” you were surprised to see the mails filled with bills that needed to be paid.
you groaned as you held the envelopes in hand.
it's the same envelope you receive every month, but somehow these envelopes are more irritating to you right now. 
you just closed the mailbox and went inside. you one by one looked through the mail, while you walked back to the kitchen.
and every time you open one, your mood gets worse and worse.
“huh?! why is it so expensive?!” you shouted at the bill you're holding.
we need to spend our money more wisely, even if we're both working.
*ping*
you heard the microwave's sound go off. you immediately took it out forgetting to put on a mitt or even a pot holder.
“ouch!” you screamed. you hurriedly went to the sink and ran the water on it. “damn, what am i doing?”
“i'm home.” sawamura announced as soon as he stepped in.
he's home?!
“argh! wait–” you speed walked to the main door and saw your husband. “welc–” 
you stopped mid-sentence when you saw what he's holding.
“uh, i saw a friend of mine while on my way home, that's why i was late, so i thought i should get you something.” he said and extended his arms, a bouquet of flowers in his hands.
you accepted it, staring at it with a forced smile.
“don't like it?” he asked as he kissed your temple and walked to the living room.
you followed him, still looking at the flowers.
“no… it's just—” you sighed. “you didn't have to buy something this expensive…” you muttered.
“so, you don't like it?” he asked as he took off his uniform.
“no, it's not like that. i'm saying you shouldn't have spent the money on something useless—” you said, but decided to just cut yourself off.
you sighed. “thank you, dai.” walking up to him to hug him.
he returned the embrace, but he knew something was wrong.
we could’ve used the money to pay off our bills instead. you thought as you let go from the hug.
sawamura, puzzled, still decided to just give you a bit of space and not to pry yet. he went to take a short shower, while you prepared the table.
while waiting for him to join you, you looked at the envelopes you were just looking at earlier. your eyes then went back to the bouquet that’s now sitting on the center table in the living room.
you breathed deeply.
am i getting ungrateful for not appreciating his effort on buying that?
you got on your feet and went to get it. 
staring at it, you finally realized how pretty it was. also, it’s your favorite flower.
you can’t remember when was the last time you mentioned to him what your favorite flower was. 
was it when we were on our first date?
you chuckled.
“that guy really knows how to put butterflies in my stomach.”
suddenly, you felt two cold arms wrapped around your waist. you felt him snuggle his nose on your nook of neck.
“dai, stop it. i'm reeking of sweat.” you chortled as you felt a bit tickled by his now growing stubble.
he buried his nose deeper and even inhaled your scent like a man who just regained his sense of smell.
“smells like a pheromone for me.” he replied and lifted you up. 
hooking his arms behind your knees and walking to the table. he sat you down on the chair and took a seat adjacent to yours.
as he was about to scoop rice for both of you, you reached out to his cheeks and gave him a peck. he was taken aback, but then smiled at you. he held your hand on his cheeks and brought it to his lips, kissing the back of it.
“thank you for the flowers, dai.” you told him.
“anything for you, babe.” he answered.
maybe i was just thinking a bit too much about our bills. i should just appreciate that he got me these flowers.
“mrs. sawamura, please redo this.” your team leader sternly said.
you looked up from your desk and met with an eyes burning and a face that’s barely containing their anger.
“yes?” you asked while your hand was holding the lunch you were about to eat at the canteen.
“there are a lot of inaccurate reports and miscalculated estimates. what are you even doing? do you want our team to lose this project because of you?” she added and slammed the folder on your desk.
“but—” none of those are my jobs though.
i might probably have to add this to my piles of to-do work.
she was about to walk away, when she suddenly looked back.
“and i want them done today.” she said lastly, before walking back to her posts and leaving you with wide eyes.
all of this by today?!
“there’s no way i can finish this today.” you whispered and slumped your back to the chair.
i might need to stay for over time.
as you set your lunch box down on your desk, your phone vibrated. you pulled it out of your vest’s pocket and saw a message notification from your younger sister, who’s in college.
- we’re running out of mom’s medication. - she’s always staring and thinking about a lot of things, i’m afraid it might turn into depression. - and brother’s med maintenance too. - it’ll only last until tomorrow. - we need extra money, but i already used my income from my part-time job to pay off the debts when i borrowed money from my friend to pay for my tuition. she said she badly needed the money. -if you have extra money, can you send us some for your mother and brother? - i’ll try asking someone too.
you let out a frustrated sigh. you grit your teeth and lower your head.
just how bad will this day get?
you repositioned your body. taking deep breaths. you picked up your phone again and replied to your sister.
- no, it’s fine. i have some extra here. i received a bonus yesterday. i’ll send it to you and pay for the remaining balance on your tuition too. don’t forget their meds. let me know how much all in total. thanks for always looking out for them. take care there.
you put down your phone and covered your face with your hands.
well, there goes my bonus. i still haven’t paid for the other bills that i’m supposed to pay for.
“(y/n), you okay?” your workmate asked.
you just nodded and told him you’re okay.
i need to save money.
hours have passed since your supposed time to go home, but here you are redoing the whole project that wasn’t even your doing, yet forced to redo so.
“this… is wrong. who the hell put it here?” you said to yourself and immediately fixed it.
thankfully, you are already almost done with it. just a bit more and you can already give it to your team leader. she seemed to stay late too and was working on another project.
that doesn’t mean she should have me revise these mistakes when i wasn't even the one who did it.
“and… there! all done!” you raised your arms in the air and stretched your back.
“finally!” you expressed slumping your body to the chair with relief.
you immediately went to pass it to your leader. she didn’t even bother looking up at you and just said a monotone of “good work, you can go home now.” but, you could care less at this moment, you just want to get it over with and go home and take a bath and sleep.
as you were arranging your belongings, you remembered that you turned your phone off, in order to concentrate more.
you slid your bag on your shoulder and walked to the elevator. you waited for the phone to turn on. you’re the only one inside, so your mind wandered off while waiting to reach the ground floor and for your phone.
should i get a part time job too? ever since my brother got caught up in a motorcycle accident, it feels like money has been slipping out the moment i got them on my hands. 
you heard a ping and the door finally opened, the same time as your phone turned on too. while walking to the door, your notifications got bombed with messages from your husband.
- can’t wait to have dinner with you <3 - i think i might arrive a bit earlier than our call time - the chief will let us out early today - i’ll be waiting for you, but you don’t have to rush, okay? - are you on ‘do not disturb’ mode? - okay, you might be busy right now - good luck on your work, i love you
- i just got out, i’ll be passing by the house for a moment to change the car and maybe take a quick shower too - still no reply? :( - don’t overwork yourself too much please - i’ll be driving so i might not see your reply - i love you
- i’m on my way to the resto - i’m so excited haha - i’ll be waiting there for you - i’ll be sure to drive safely, because that’s what you always say when i say i’m about to drive - see you there, i love you
- i’m here already, but no need to rush - i’m just early by half an hour - just let me know if you’re seeing these messages - be safe on your way here, i love you
- hey, it’s been two hours already - are you still tied up with your work? - let me know if i should wait for you or pick you up at your work - i can still wait for you though - please reply, babe - i’m getting a bit worried now - reply to me please, i love you
- i just contacted your colleague - he told me you’re staying overtime to finish some things, but couldn’t you tell me sooner? - i’m still waiting here for about four hours now - i’m going home now - at least reply to me once you’ve seen this
oh shit, oh shit, oh shit! i completely forgot about our dinner!
you hurriedly ran to call a taxi, knowing that the train was about to close by the time.
i knew something important slipped my mind earlier! i can’t believe it was the date with my husband!
you told the driver the destination of your travel, while also asking him if he can make it so you will arrive faster there. of course, he said he can’t drive recklessly, but he’ll try to drive faster.
while the taxi driver did his job, you tried to reply to your daichi. you explained that you had your phone off, that's why you didn’t receive his messages. the thing is, your messages are going through but he’s not responding to your message.
gosh, i think he’s really mad. what should i do when i get home? we can just have another dinner. ugh, it’s too pricey. you sighed.
after a few minutes, the taxi finally arrived at the street of your house. you told him it’s okay to drop you off here and paid him. while walking to your house, your stomach churns with anxiety as you might find daichi mad.
as you reached your gated house, you searched for your keys only for you to realize that you didn’t bring it with you when you left the house. you contemplated whether to call daichi and have him open the gate for you or just jump over the gate.
while thinking, you suddenly heard the clicking sounds of the gate being opened. you turn around to see your husband in his shorts and t-shirt. he’s not in his night wear yet, so he must’ve been doing some work in his office, just like what he usually does when he gets some free time after eating dinner, though it usually doesn't take this long for him to do those works.
“o-oh, you’re still awake? i didn’t wake you up, right?” you asked, trying not to make it awkward.
“no.” he flatly said. 
he finally opened the gate and then waited for you to step inside, without uttering another word. you walked to the front door and opened it, going inside. you left the door open for him.
you set your coat on the rack and followed daichi with your eyes as he closed the front door and walked past you after throwing the keys in the bowl. you also saw your keys there.
i knew it he’s mad.
you walked to the living room to see him opening the television and munching on some chips. seeing this, you felt your stomach grumble. you went to the kitchen and found a bowl of some hot miso soup. your stomach felt even hungrier.
but, i need to talk to dai. you closed your eyes and accepted your hunger later.
you were about to walk to where daichi was when he suddenly stood up and went to the bathroom. he also took a towel, so it seems like he’ll take a shower.
guess, i should eat first then.
after eating and washing the dishes, since it’s only the ones you eat with anyways, you went to change your clothes hurriedly, in case daichi finishes his shower already.
when you went back to the living room, there you saw him sitting on the couch, eyes glued to the television. 
you walked to him and called his name.
“dai.” he didn’t look at you.
“dai. i forgot about our dinner.” you said and took a seat next to him, he looked at you.
i should just explain it to him and get this over with.
“our team leader was being a little bitchy earlier and gave me work i’m not even supposed to do, so i turned off my phone—” you were telling him about what happened earlier, when he suddenly cut you off.
“is it that hard to remember to tell me that you’re taking an overtime?” he stated. staring at you with a straight face.
“huh?” you asked, deflecting his straightforwardness.
“i’m pissed off that you made me wait for about four hours, but i’m more pissed about the fact that you can’t even tell me that you’re having overtime.” he uttered.
it’s like something just snapped in your mind. you know you’re the one who should apologize for forgetting about your date and even making him wait. but, it must’ve been the awful day that you had that’s getting the best of you right now.
“why is it such a big thing to tell you about that?” you asked him with a stress on the word ‘big thing’.
he furrowed your brows and was taken aback by your question. did you really just ask him why is that a big thing?
he stood up and was still not breaking eye contact with you.
“maybe it’s because i’m your husband, (y/n).” he answered back, now emphasizing his words. “of course, i need to know because i get worried why you aren’t back yet when your working hours are already done.” 
you raised your eyebrow.
“if you were that worried, then you should’ve come to my workplace and checked up on me.” you said and then stood up too, facing him.
“i was about to, when your co-worker replied to me and said you already have taken an overtime and possibly forgotten about our reservation!” he rebutted, his voice getting louder.
“then it's good timing! that was a waste of money anyways, we can always just eat somewhere cheap!” you shouted back.
“it’s you who wanted to eat there!” he pointed at you.
“i never said that! it’s you who wanted to take me there!” you told him and took a step forward.
“why are you always pushing the blame onto someone else whenever you're up against a corner?!” he gritted through his teeth.
“huh?! when did i ever do that—” you were about to talk when he talked over you.
and it was when you realized this is going like what happened with your parents.
“you never owe up to your mistakes, i always try to understand you because i love you, but (y/n), i’m a human too! i have a limit!” he started.
“wha—” before you could even finish, he added something that breaks your heart.
“i’m tired of you always being like that!” he said and stormed off to the bedroom.
you stood there in the middle of the living room speechless. 
your world seems to be spinning yet you’re not paying attention to it, you're more focused on the heavy feeling on your chest. it’s so heavy, it feels like your heart has fallen to your stomach and now you can feel the churning of it too.
your legs felt wobbly, you had no choice but to sit back down on the couch. your hand found its way to your chest.
it hurts here.
your eyesight started becoming watery.
“you’re always like that! i’m tired of you already!” “guess who’s tired of you too?” “is that so? then i’m leaving and never going back here!”
no! stop, stop, stop, stop!
don’t think about what happened to mom and dad!
“then i’m leaving and never going back here!”
stop! please!
you know daichi won’t leave you, right?!
he won’t leave you!
he won’t leave you!
he won’t.
…right?
i just have to apologize—
“they were so deeply in love with each other in the past.”
no…
i still love daichi!
stop thinking like that!
with all these thoughts, you didn’t even realize how much you’re crying, but somehow not making any sounds. your body is still adapted to your childhood habit of immediately covering your mouth and nose when crying in order not to let anyone hear it.
it’s a habit that started the night you realized that you’re the reason why your parents have broken off. if you didn’t ask your mother for a gift that day, then there might be a chance that your family is still together.
your body slid and now you’re lying on the couch sideways, still covering your mouth and nose.
i still love daichi.
but, daichi’s tired of me already.
i knew love never lasts, but i thought it might be different with daichi. i was too naive to think love would treat me differently than my parents.
everything comes and goes.
in the end, it was a cycle.
not the love, but what happened with my parents’ love story and mine.
it will never last. love is.
waiting for a bit until you stopped crying, you picked up your coat again and put it on. you were about to take your keys, but realized you don’t need it anymore. before leaving, you remembered one thing. you walked back to the living room and took off your ring, setting it down on the table, all while holding back your tears again.
daichi’s the type to sleep his anger until he calmed down, so you didn’t have to think that he might pop out suddenly and ask you where are you going.
you have already booked a taxi to take you somewhere that might not be a safe haven for you, but still has a deep hold to you.
“can you take me here?” you said to the driver and he said he can and then quietly drove you there.
you turned your phone off to avoid someone calling you. you slept on your way there and when you felt the car stop for a bit too long, you immediately opened your eyes. a bittersweet smile appeared on your face as you stared at the house from the window.
you thanked the driver and hopped out of the taxi. you stood in front of the house unlighted because it’s already midnight, though to you it looked more gloomy rather than creepy.
one of the rooms is still with lights on, you grabbed your phone and messaged your sister. a few moments later, she was out of the house, wearing her pajamas, surprised to find her sister out of the house in the middle of the night.
as much as how surprised she was, she knew it was out of ordinary for you to show up in front of the house on a random day. she knew you had your reasons, but never forced you to tell her about it. it’s not like you’ll travel for about three hours just to visit them, just because you thought about it, what’s more it’s in the middle of the night.
she helped you get your room ready, she can see from your eyes that you needed to rest your body and mind. when it was already done, you thanked her and encouraged her about the plates she’s finishing, that's why she’s staying up late.
you laid on your bed, the same bed that has been with you with everything. it is nostalgic to think about the memories, but you can’t help but think about those times where the family is still complete and somehow you are acting like a real family.
“i’m back. you’re seeing another pathetic side of me.” you muttered to yourself, referring to the bed and realized that maybe it’s the whole room too.
you turned your eyes to the pictures stuck on your walls. your lips quivered again as you stare at the picture you put up in the past of you and daichi when you had an aquarium date. 
it’s a picture of you two kissing that was perfectly photobombed by a large stingray, that made both of you look like you had wings.
“why do humans fall in love? it hurts my heart, yet i can’t stop loving the man i married.” you uttered as a tear fell out of your eyes.
you were about to close your eyes, when suddenly you heard a knock on your door. you looked up and stared at it, thinking it could be your imagination. again, three knocks came. you immediately went to get whoever it was. did your little sister forget something? or did you?
opening the door, you were greeted by your mother in a wheelchair. smiling up at you.
“i knew it. you came home, i see.” she said, still smiling affectionately at you.
“mom, why are you still awake?” you asked, kneeling in front of her. you held her hand and returned the smile.
“i was asleep, but i woke up when i heard your bedroom’s door being opened.” she explained and tapped you, asking you to stand up.
“huh? ah…” you were puzzled by what she said, but then remembered it.
“your door lets out a peculiar sound every time it opens and closes, right?” she chuckled and pointed at your balcony. 
you went behind her and pushed the wheelchair to your balcony, the breeze was chilly, so you went to your dresser and looked for something thick to cover your frail mother’s body. you came back with a jacket, and wrapped it over her shoulders while she was staring at the star-filled sky.
“it’s beautiful.” she spoke. 
you looked up and truthfully, it was beautiful but you were not in the mood to admire them. you just answered her with a simple, “yeah.”
for a moment, it was quiet. the only sounds you’re hearing are the sound of the wind brushing against the trees and leaves and the sound of the crickets.
it was quite, you thought it would be okay to just stay like this, but you know somewhere someone would speak up. it was your mother who did.
“did something happen at your house?” she finally asked the same question your little sister wanted to ask but decided not to.
you tried to stay quiet, but you were aware you have to, sooner or later, need to tell them the reason rather than keeping them in the dark.
and yet, you can’t find the courage to speak.
your mother smiled.
again, it was quiet. 
for a few minutes, it stayed quiet. actually, you think it might actually go until half an hour. half an hour of letting the noises of nature fill both of your ears, half an hour of feeling the cold blow of the midnight wind on your skin.
you looked down at your mother and noticed that she’s just staring at something far. it was like her mind was occupied by something.
“mom,” you called, she answered you by humming, “what are you thinking about?”
“i’m thinking about your father.” she said lightly.
you were surprised. the topic about your father was like a forbidden one, you and your siblings never talked about your father when in presence of your mother, yet she just told you that he’s running in her mind right now. 
i thought she hated him.
“why?” you asked.
she smiled weakly.
“i’m thinking that if i followed him back then, maybe i would be happy right now.” your eyes widened.
she still remember that? and… she regrets not running after him? but, he’s…
“i thought you said you didn’t love him anymore?”
she chuckled.
“i thought so too.”
it’s saturday and almost four o'clock in the morning, daichi was woken up by his alarm clock, he forgot to turn off before sleeping. it was already weird, because usually he never hears it. it was you who got woken up by it first and then turned it off. after that, you’ll be nudging him and even getting on top of him with your whole body to wake him up.
his body feels so tired. he stretched his arms out, only to feel the cold sheet next to him. he sprung up on his ass. 
“where is—” 
he shut his eyes tight when he remembered what happened last night.
“damn it. i decided to sleep again while i’m mad. i should stop doing that. she doesn't like it either.” he muttered as he got off the bed and stretched out his body.
he went outside the room to get water and find you. he searched the living room with his eyes, but he didn’t see you, he walked to the kitchen and you weren’t there either.
maybe in the bathroom? he thought and his feet dragged him there.
no. you weren’t there.
at this point, he was ignoring the thumping sounds of his heart. there’s no way you did what he’s thinking… right?
he went outside, even though he knows himself it’s ridiculous, to see you watering the plants. but, still there’s no sign of you.
he went back inside and searched every room, but still no one jumped out and said that you were just playing hide-and-seek with a just-woken-up him.
where were you?
he went to sit on the couch. short and fast breaths taking over his lungs.
please just tell me you went out to jog. or that you went to shop this early in the morning. anything that could be outrageous to do at this time you can do it and he wouldn’t even laugh. just show up before his eyes and calm down his heart getting scared minute by minute that he might’ve ruined everything last night.
“where are you, baby? please, just this once let it be a joke.” his said with a shaking voice. 
he looked down and finally saw it. the ring you left, before you went and left the house.
daichi laughed. 
“now, if this is a nightmare, i fucking hate it, haha.” he laughed as he picked it up with trembling fingers. 
it wasn’t happening. if he closes his eyes and opens it again, he’ll find you sleeping soundly beside him.
but it didn’t.
he clutched the ring in his palms as he wobbly stood up and went to the bedroom to get his phone. maybe if he calls you and apologizes, he can fix this relationship.
but, it wasn’t going through.
“did she block me already? please don’t. i’ll apologize for everything i did and said. just don’t leave me.” he muttered, shaking voice and tears finally escaping his eyes.
he kissed the ring, before deciding to get on his feet.
he’s not letting this relationship end, if he had to eat dirt for you to forgive him, he’ll go out of his way to search for the dirtiest mud and eat it for you. 
he checked the closet. his line of work will become handy to him, but he didn’t think that it’ll be useful in this way. you didn’t take any clothes with you. so, there’s a high chance that you’ll go somewhere you have a stock of clothes with them. but, the friend you’re always staying over whenever you have a girl’s night, is out of town right now and the other is attending a party just like what you’ve told him.
as much as he doesn't want to say it, he knows that you’re trying to save money, so you probably won’t stay at a hotel.
he picked up his jacket, phone and wallet.
he knows the only place where you could be.
“you thought so too?” you repeated.
“i thought i was tired of him, that i didn’t love him anymore.” she said, “but, i was wrong.” she added.
how can you love someone who hurt you just by thinking about them?
she looked up at you and smiled.
“i realized, i was not tired of loving him.” she looked forward again. “rather, i was tired of our fights. i was tired of always exchanging shouts with him, but i never stopped loving him. ever since that night, never a day passed that i haven’t thought about how i should’ve run after him and told him not to leave me, us.”
your lips quiver while listening. you always made sure not to talk about your father thinking that your mother would hate it, not knowing that everyday she reminisces about their relationship.
again, she looked up at you, but now with a warmer and larger smile.
“so, i thought once i get better, i’ll try and win your father back, even if it took too many years, haha.” she happily said, before looking back in front.
you weren’t able to contain it anymore, you shed a tear for your mother. you bend down and hug her from behind. she was startled when you suddenly wrapped your arms around her, but still caressed her daughter’s head, just like how she used to whenever she cries in her arms. you were happy to see your mother’s genuine smile, a smile that isn’t forced, a smile that isn’t there to show that she’s okay, so you don’t have to worry. you were happy, but you can’t help but cry.
knowing damn well that your father has already married someone else and is having his third child.
you know that and yet, you can’t tell her that. you don’t want to. not when she just finds inspiration to be well again.
but, you didn’t expect to hear what she said next.
“your father… he already found someone else, didn’t he?” she suddenly said that it made you freeze.
you felt wet drops on your arms.
“i-i— he—” you wanted to lie, but can’t bring another heartbreak to your mother by lying.
“i know, because you’re my child.” she sobbed and tears fell out of her eyes like waterfalls. “and i know, because that’s just the man i knew and loved.”
you went in front of her and hugged her by her waist, bawling like a little child.
“sorry, sorry, sorry, mom… it was my fault… i’ve always known it was because of me… if i didn’t ask you for a gift, maybe he would still be with us… mom, i’m sorry… because of me… i’m sorry… i’m sorry… i’m sorry… please, forgive me…” you cried and cried, begging your mother for forgiveness.
your mother who is also crying, but still manages to wipe your tears, nods her head with everything you say to let you know she’s listening. 
you kept on apologizing to her and she listened to everything. when you ran out of breath, she took this chance to calm you down. 
“(y/n), look at me.” she said as she cupped your cheeks, you looked at her with a messy face and probably snot coming out of your nose. “never have i ever thought that it was your fault. your small gift was not the reason we ended the relationship. i didn’t know that you’ve always carried the guilt on your back thinking that it was your fault. i’m sorry for never noticing.” she affirmed.
“it was not your fault, (y/n).”
this made you teary again.
“mom… thank you…” you cried to her as you held her hands that were on your cheeks. closing your eyes to feel the warmth of her palms in the coldness of the breeze.
“with that said, (y/n)...” she called. you opened your eyes and saw another of her real smiles.
“don’t make the same mistake as me.” 
it was a short sentence, yet it rang your ears so loud, you can’t hear anything else except that.
your lips showed a smile, a quivering and forced smile. your tears never stopped dropping, actually your eyes produced more.
“i’m sorry, mom. but i think i already did.” you cried, resting your head on her thighs. “it wasn’t your mistake that i’ve committed, but dad’s.” you added.
“i ran away.” you hiccuped, “i thought everything would be the same, so i ran away. i was scared to face it.” 
your mother made you raise your head. your eyes are red from crying so much and yet you felt like you haven’t let everything out. your chest still feels heavy. you want to cry everything out, but thoughts fill in double with every tear that escapes your eye. you just want to cry it out, but the longer you cry, the more it hurts.
“mom, what should i do?” you asked her, looking up at her. sniffing and catching your breath.
“i…” you stopped to inhale. “i love daichi, but i’m scared. what if it's all temporary. what if our love fades?”
“it was my fault. it’s always been my fault.” you wiped your eyes with your hands, only to be replaced by another one. “i… i don’t want to leave him, mom…”
“dear, calm down.” your mother squished your cheeks. “i’m sure you realize that whatever you did to your husband was wrong, but you don’t have to worry.” she said, making you confused.
“i was the one who ran away… what if he didn’t run after me?” you asked.
“then you’ll be the one who needs to go back to him. you need to talk it out.” she ran her hands on your hair. “you wouldn’t want to turn out like me, right?” she muttered, giving you a relieved smile. 
she knows that you already know what to do and that no matter what happens, deep inside you, you didn’t want to be something you saw happen to her and your father. she must’ve been subconsciously aware that you were afraid to fall in love. she saw when you looked at others with partners, not with an envious eyes, but rather a confused one.
she realized just now, that she might have been the reason why you think like that. with what turned out to be your mother and father’s relationship, maybe it’s understandable why you thought love fades along with the relationship. but, you’re wrong. after all, look at her. she will always love the man that was with her for most of her happiest moments. she’ll never stop loving him.
but, she knows it’s different for the both of you.
because, she saw something in daichi that your father has never done and never will. she knew from the day you introduced him to her. 
your father never looked at her the same way daichi looked at you whenever you’re not looking.
so, she knows. she knows it won’t turn as tragic as her story.
when she realized, you have already calmed down. you’re still sniffing and wiping your tear stains, but you’ve controlled it.
“let’s go. it’s getting late and you haven’t slept yet.” she tapped your back. you could only reply with a nod. 
you stood up and helped your mother turn her wheelchair around. you helped her get to her bedroom, but before walking back to your room, you thanked her.
“thank you, mom.” you said. she looked at you and smiled. “thank you for being the best.” you kissed her on her forehead and said good nights to each other.
you went back to your room and laid on the bed. you reached for your phone. your fingers fiddled whether to turn it on or not.
in the end, you chose not to. 
you know what to do right now, but needed more courage to commence it.
“i should get some sleep first.” you muttered, your body finally processing the amount of tiredness your body felt yesterday and today.
i’m going back to daichi. i don’t want to lose him.
the sun was up and it was hitting your eyelid. you were too tired and sleepy, you forgot to lay out the blinds.
you were about to turn your body to the side, when something was holding you by your waist. you were still feeling groggy, but you paid no attention to it. but, then you remembered you’re in your room, not at your house, but your mother’s house.
you swung your head sideways and saw daichi sleeping next to you. your mouth was wide open and was surprised.
how did he get here this early in the morning?
you stared at his handsome face that was wrinkled by his furrowed brows. you wanted to laugh, because that was his face every time he dreams about a weird but cute creature that he told you about before.. you tried to get out of his chain-like hold. after many unsuccessful attempts, you finally managed to free yourself. 
you sat on the edge of the bed as you felt your throat was so dry after that crying you did. you were about to get up when you caught daichi and started moving his hands.
he’s searching for me. you thought. 
you were on your way to reach for his hands, when he suddenly sprang up with wide eyes.
“(y/n)!” he called out.
you jolted because of his sudden movements. he was frantically rubbing his eyes in order to get that clear view of the room. his gestures made you worry, so you held and stopped his hands from doing so.
“dai, i’m here.” you told him, putting his hands down along with yours. “good morning.”
his eyesight has finally adjusted and you were his first view. 
your beautiful face that puts a blush on his cheeks. your sweet smile that calms his mind. your soft touches that makes him weak.
staring at your face, he realized that he’s not in a nightmare anymore. just like what happened earlier when we woke up for the first time today. you’re here in front of him, greeting him good morning just like always.
he pulled your hands to his face, feeling up the warmth it gives.
“g-good morning.” he replied, his voice cracking up from holding back his cry.
you smiled watching your husband snuggle himself to your hands, but it soon faded when you realized how scared and hurt he must’ve been when you suddenly disappeared.
“dai—” before you could even finish calling him, you suddenly found yourself caught by daichi’s arms again.
he buried his face on your chest and hugged you tight, tighter than he even did before.
“why…?” he muttered, words were muffled, but you can still hear him clearly.
“dai?” you called.
“why did you leave? you could’ve just slapped me. you could’ve just kicked me. you could’ve punched me. you could’ve told me to sleep outside. you can pull my hair, poke my eyes, hit my shin, step on my toes, throw all my clothes, burn them, spend all my money, cut my cards and everything to let out your frustrations and calm your anger, but why? why did you think of leaving me?” he reasoned.
you could feel your clothes getting wet, right where his eyes met your chest. his fingers on your back grasping onto your fabric. you wrapped your arms around his back.
“i was so scared. i thought i might never see you again. i thought we’ll never kiss each other good nights and good mornings again. i thought i’ll never be able to hold you like this anymore.” he continued.
“i’m sorry, i’m sorry. please don’t be mad at me anymore. i didn’t think through what was coming out of my mouth. i won’t ever do that again, please don’t leave me. i love you. you know, i love you so much, right?” he begged, finally looking up at you.
his eyes were filled with tears, just like how you were earlier. his face was desperate for your answer.
“dai.” you started. you pushed him away for a bit to look at him directly. he didn’t want to at first, but still complied with what you wanted, only if he held your hand. he’s scared that you might disappear from him again.
“why are you the one apologizing? it was my fault it all happened.” you told him, he was about to reply to you, but you halted him.
“i completely forgot our dinner. i forgot to message you about staying late to finish my work and i didn’t apologize for both. i got mad when you were only worried about me. i lied about not wanting to eat there and begged you for it.” you continued, looking at him straight in the eyes.
“and you’re right about it. i’m sorry for always dodging to own up for my own mistakes. i was scared that everything might be happening because of me again. i ran away from them, so i will not be blamed for it. it’s a bad habit that i need to work on.” you said, smiling at him.
you raised both of your hands to your chest level.
“and thank you for always understanding me. thank you for being so patient with me. i’m very lucky to have someone like you beside me.” you then went and hugged him.
“i’m supposed to be the one saying it.” you added.
“saying what?” he confusedly asked, but still hugged you back tightly.
“i’m going to be selfish and ask for it. i might be tiring to deal with at times, but please don’t leave me, daichi.” you said.
he suddenly chuckled.
“then that would make us both selfish then, since we're asking for the same thing.” he said before pulling you to his lap.
he sat you down there and wiped some tears that were escaping your eyes. he held your cheek with one hand and yours immediately followed it, holding his below your hands. he angled both of your heads and made your foreheads touch each other.
“i won’t promise that there will never be a fight anymore, but there’s one thing i will promise.”
you smiled when you realized that you know what he’s going to say next.
“i promise i’ll love you for eternity.” you said in chorus, making you two laugh.
you two laid in bed for a few minutes, before going down and eating breakfast with everyone. you ate in peace knowing you learned that maybe even just a little bit, you finally understand why.
the reason why people bother with love.
sometimes you will just find someone who will make you risk getting hurt as long as you get to be with them. sometimes it might not turn out the way you expected it, but sometimes when you overcome it and still be with them, it could be the greatest thing that would happen to you.
sawamura daichi, thank you for making me take the risk.

hope you enjoyed it! stay hydrated you all, it's so hot!

bokuto koutarou x reader
wc: 1.3k
i like the little hurt i felt, rereading this fufu. i remembered i posted this on one of my old tmblr acc. pls request to me, i'm begging T^T
Tumblr media
you were woken up from your afternoon nap when you heard your phone went off continuously. you grumpily reached for it on the nightstand just beside the bed.
as if a spell was cast on you, your expression immediately lit up, when you saw the notification.
Tumblr media
bokuto has been more expressive and more clingy this past week. he does things like staring at you while you do work and he'd always bring you sweets and flowers every time he came home.
just yesterday, he brought you another necklace.
though you want to know why he's like that, you don't mind it, in fact, you love it. that's why you make sure to show him how much you love him too.
you looked at the time on your phone and it's already quarter to five.
i guess i should clean up the house. you thought as you fixed your hair and stood up.
...
*ding dong* 
you were woken up from your slumber for the second time today when the sound of the doorbell rang throughout the living room of the house you shared with your boyfriend.
ah bad. i fell asleep while cleaning. 
you drowsily rubbed your eyes as you walked to the door, not minding the unfinished work.
you opened it and there was akaashi looking so done with his life, while your partner hanged on his left shoulder.
“akaashi, did he drink that much?” you said looking at him pitifully.
“yeah,” he stated. “...but he's acting weird today.”
you wanted to ask what he meant, but you told him to get in first to at least place bokuto on the couch and rest his shoulder.
he softly throws his previous captain on the couch as you take off bokuto's shoes. when you came back from putting the footwear on the shoe rack, you offered akaashi water.
“hey, what do you mean earlier?” you asked him, worried that bokuto might be having a problem.
“normally, he would be so energetic and loud, but today he just drank and drank. i immediately noticed it, that's why i didn't drink too much because i'm sure he'll be too drunk later on.” akaashi explained and chugged on the water you gave him.
you looked at bokuto and you noticed how troubled his expression is, even though he's sleeping.
“did he tell you anything?” you queried the editor who’s looking at bokuto.
“sadly, he passed out before i could ask him anything.” he sighed and fixed his glasses.
after you talked a bit to akaashi, he bid farewell to you, since he has work tomorrow. you sent him off while thanking him for looking out for the drunk guy on your couch.
you went to the bathroom after to get a bowl and towel to clean up bokuto. you crouched beside the couch and slowly took his arm.
you successfully wiped it, so went to the other arm. as you reached for it, you suddenly froze when he groaned.
“hm? who you?” he questioned looking at you suspiciously.
here it is again. every time bokuto is drunk, he always fails to recognize anyone. anyone. 
“ah. i was with akaashi. you're akaashi, right?” he wanted to confirm, but you just smiled at him and offered him water, but he refused.
he turned his body to the side, he's facing the backrest of the couch and his arm dangled on the edge of it.
“akaashi…” he called even though akaashi's not there.
you just decided to go along with it, hoping you'd catch something funny that you can tell him tomorrow once he comes to his senses.
“yes?” you answered, putting a low tone to your voice.
“i want to ask you something.” he said, not moving from his current position.
“what is it?”
“i don't know what to do.” 
“about what? tell me.” you listened to him intently.
is he going to talk about what's bothering him?
“actually, i love (y/n)...” you replied with a hum.  “but…” he refutes.
but?
he changed his position again and now he's facing the ceiling with his arms covering his eyes. this is the first time you saw him this serious while drunk.
“i love her, but i don't love her.” he whispered and bit his lips.
“what?” you were unsure whether you heard it right or not.
i must’ve misheard it, but i’m pretty sure i didn’t. what is he talking about?
“what do you mean?” you let go of the towel accidentally making it land on the bowl, splashing water on its surroundings.
“what i mean is that i'm not feeling the same way as before. i love (y/n), but it's not the same love i'm feeling from before.” he said, his lips were quivering and his voice was a bit shaky.
“i'm trying, akaashi. i'm trying to bring back the love. i’m doing the things i did when we were still new to the relationship. i'm hoping the love would come back, but…” a tear fell on the side of his eyes, down to his ears. 
“what if it doesn't come back?” his voice was getting quieter and quieter.
“what if my love for her fades away?” he sobs.
you just stood there looking at him talking. a lot of information came in at once, it seems like your mind can't keep up.
he doesn't feel the same anymore? so the reason he's been extra sweet lately is that he wanted to revive his feelings for me? 
you let out a laugh and comb your hair with your fingers.
“what are you laughing for, akaashi?” he fixed his position, sat on his butt and looked up at you, even though his eyes were still blurry.
“nothing. it's just, (y/n) thought nothing of it when you were extremely sweet and clingy, though she loves it, now she feels like shit knowing what was the reason.” you tried to finish what you were saying, while also trying to keep the tears from falling.
he confusedly looked at you. you cleared your throat and clenched your hand.
“why don't you just tell her the truth? that you've already fallen out of love?” he lowered his head and placed both of his hands on the sides of his head.
“but, i promised her forever.”
he said, vocals almost inaudible, because of how shaky it is. anyone who can see him right now, can tell that what he's showing right now is what he really feels deep inside him.
“i promised that to her, and i still don't want her to be sad.” he clasped both of his hands.
“but you shouldn't lead me on that you're still mine because that hurts much more thinking all your i love you's are genuine, but it isn't. it’s not love, if you’re faking it.” 
you sighed heavily, you felt as if your legs lost all their power, you suddenly wanted to sit down. you did, but on the floor right in front of your boyfriend.
you looked at him while cries and worried about what to do with himself for minutes and minutes.
it seems like he sobered up. 
you smiled weakly and reached for his cheeks. you noticed how he melted into it, now you know that he's really back to his senses.
“babe…?” he muttered and looked at you. 
you saw how his eyes showed terror now that he'd realized that the one he's talking to all the time was you and not akaashi.
“b-babe, i—” he held your hand that was on his face, but you pulled it out of his grip.
you nodded slowly, smiling at him.
“shh. it's okay. we can talk about it tomorrow. you should take a rest for now.” you said and walked towards your guy's room, refusing to let even a drop of tear fall in front of him.
bokuto watched as you took each step. what he's feeling right now doesn't seem right. 
it is as if you're walking away from him for good, but he feels like he should run after you. 
but, shouldn't he feel that way if he had already fallen out of love, right?
Tumblr media

osamu bby! hope you enjoy this!
Tumblr media
the sliding door opened and you quickly turned around and smiled at the person who just went in.
“welcome!” you and your workmates said, everybody's reflex making everyone speak in chorus.
when the customer settled for a seat, you quickly walked to them and pulled out your notebook and pen.
“good afternoon, what would you like to have today?” 
“yes. i’ll have today’s special.” they answered, smiling.
“roger.” you said as you wrote it down. you turned around and looked at the kitchen’s door where the cook patiently waited for orders.
“today’s special for one!” you shouted and he gave you a thumbs up to say he's got it.
as you were about to clean out one of the tables, you heard the door open again.
“welcome!” 
i think we're going to have a busy day today. 
… 
“phew…” you exhaled.
“(y/n),” the owner who also manages the counter calls. “please do the honor.” he joked.
you chuckled as you made your way to the entrance.
you turned the signage around and showed the ‘closed’ side. 
finally, you sighed.
you walked back in after you picked up the board outside. 
“one customer said that there was a graduation ceremony nearby.” your colleague informed everyone.
“so that's why…” you replied.
“let's clean up fast so we can go home already.” the owner ordered and you all headed to your designated cleaning areas and started the work. 
as you were arranging the plates, your workmates called you.
“(y/n), hey.” she said,
you turned around to look at her, but suddenly you're being pushed to the back door.
“eh? why? i'm not done with the plates yet.” you said.
“i’ll do it. i’ll do it. he’s waiting for you. i still owe you a favor for covering for me last time.” she said, giggling while she went back inside.
you knew who she was talking about, so you just thanked her and went to your locker and changed.
you tried your best to be as fast as possible, your feet probably moving faster than shinkansen.
you looked at the clock and noted that he's already waiting for fifteen minutes. fortunately, you're already done packing your things and retouching your makeup. 
you went to say goodbye to your workmates and to the owner.
you opened the backdoor and saw him sitting on the railing wearing earphones and scrolling through his phone, most likely, he's on tiktok.
since he didn't notice you were out already, you walked behind him and covered his eyes with your hands.
“guess who?” you uttered with a slightly different voice.
“damn. hmm… i wonder who… i can't think of anyone… oh my god… who is this?” he replied with the most monotonous voice you've ever heard in your life.
“haha, you're so funny.” you said as you removed your hand off of his eyes.
“why? i played along though?” he asked as he opened to you the plastic bag he was holding. 
“whatever.” you said as you scan for a certain flavor of onigiri in the bag.
he noticed you searching for your usual pick of onigiri.
“ah, shit. sorry, it was sold out today. i told one of my workers to leave some, but he was a newcomer, so he forgot it. pick a different flavor for now. i'll be sure to bring some next time.” he explained as he scuffled through the bunch of onigiri, looking for a certain one.
“here, try this. it's a new flavor. i'm still working on it. if you think it's good enough, then i'll add it to the menu.” he muttered and handed you the food.
“come on, don't say that. you’re pressuring me.” you whined, but still accepted it.
“well, your favorite flavor was also made because you kept inventing and mixing up ingredients, ingredients that are kinda suspicious actually, but who would've thought it'll become a massive hit to the customer.” he muttered as he stood up.
“first of all, i didn't know you put it on the menu and second, that just means that my taste buds are for the masses.” you said and took a bite off of the onigiri. “it's delicious, but it's kinda bland.” you commented.
“of course, i'll put it in. you said you liked it and that i should put it for sale. also, noted. thanks for the review.” he replied. he held you on your waist to silently tell you two to start walking. 
“i was obviously just kidding about putting it for sale! why would you take it seriously?” you told him, looking up at him. all while still continuing to eat. 
he just chuckled at your complaints and then went to grab one onigiri for himself too.
“at least, many people liked it.” he countered. 
“well… of course, i'm glad about that.” you replied.
you squeezed closer to him and rested your head on his side of his chest. he held your body a bit tighter, so that he could guide your body on the way home. 
“anyways, how was your work?” you asked, starting a new topic.
“well, it was quite hectic today.” he started and you hummed as a reply for him to continue his story.
“the newbie i was talking about earlier made a lot of mistakes, but he's getting the hang of it.” he added.
when there is a crossroad, the traffic light is still red. he stopped and looked at the remaining time. there's still a lot left.
you automatically stopped walking too when he did, but didn't bother to look at the lights. you know he'll tell you when it's green already.
while waiting he rested his chin on your head, before planting kisses on your hair. he likes smelling your hair. even after work hours, he said it still smells good and would smell it regardless.
“let's go.” he softly informs you when the lights say go.
responding to his voice, your body just moved on its own and followed the guidance of his hold on your waist.
“how about yours? did your work go well?” he queried next.
“it was so busy today.” you immediately replied, your voice unintentionally made a whining sound, not that you mind him hearing it. “there was a graduation ceremony near our work and a lot of families were celebrating there.” you complained as you wrapped your hands around his body and buried your face on his shirt.
the smell of his perfume is still present. the fragrance that you like the most.
he straight away comforted you by rubbing your back up and down.
“good work.” he chuckled.
you looked up at him, glaring.
“what? why did you laugh?” you asked.
“you're so cute.” he said, without missing a beat.
you immediately hide your face by burying your face once again on his shirt as soon as you feel your face heating up. 
“stop it, idiot.” you said.
“yeah, yeah.” he replied while ruffling your hair.
as you turned a corner, osamu remembered one thing they were talking about earlier. 
“that's right. are you free this weekend?” he asked.
you glanced up at him and tilted your head.
“why?” you told him.
“we're having a vacation with the whole family. wanna come with me?” he nonchalantly asked.
you let go of him and looked at him with a raised eyebrow. 
“are you serious?” you questioned him.
“that was a genuine question.” he answered.
with his family?!
“i-i'll give it a thought.” you replied.
“you don't have to come if you don't want to.” he reminded you as he pulled you closer again and planted a kiss on your forehead.
“i'll understand, don't worry. 'tsumu's also there so i definitely understand.” he snickered.
“it's not about atsumu! i actually get along with him pretty well. ah— that's right, i saw him the other day. he treated me to a drink, haha.” you said, thinking back about that day.
“what?” he halted and of course, because he was holding you close, you stopped too.
“why didn't you tell me about that?” he asked with a serious voice.
you were not an idiot. of course, you know why he's acting like that.
you wrapped your arms around his neck.
“don't worry. he didn't do anything funny. he was quite respectful to be honest. he knows his boundaries.” you smiled at him to calm him down.
he was unsure at first, but he did calm down from his obvious intent to land a punch on his very lovely twin. all thanks to you, though.
it’s not that he doesn’t trust atsumu, it’s just with the current situation, he might blurt out something unnecessary.
“here's my house. thanks for walking me home.” you said as you stood in front of him and tip toed.
“you're welcome, madame.” he replied to you.
noticing that you were tip toeing, he smiled and leaned down.
“thank you.” you said as you kissed his cheek. you smiled at him and he didn't even try to hide his blushing face.
“hey,” he hesitated for a moment.
“hm?” you hummed.
“i just wanna ask… are we—” he looked at you.
he sighed and shook his head sideways.
“nothing. good night.” he uttered, smiling. 
“be careful on your way home, okay? bye-bye.” you said as you turned around and walked inside.
“i will.” he smiled watching you go inside your house.
as soon as he made sure you got inside safely, he started walking towards his house. since he's alone now, he can now walk faster.
when he arrived home, he saw atsumu arriving too.
“why are ya' here?” he asked.
“what? can't i visit my twin's place?” he answered, already sounding offended by his twin's question.
osamu just rolled his eyes and opened the front door.
“did ya' just arrive home too? ya’ sure are late.” atsumu said, looking at his wristwatch. “ah. ya' walk (y/n) home, didn't ya'?” he guessed— right.
“hm… being so clingy with each other and even kissing, on the cheeks, picking her up from her work and even walking her home. are ya' sure ya' two ain't in a relationship?” atsumu smirked.
osamu looked back at him and glared.
“shutting yer' mouth will get ya' dinner, just so ya' know.” he threatened.
atsumu knows it better than anyone else. he really won't give him his home-cooked dinner if he won't shut up. 
osamu walked to the kitchen and started preparing dinner. 
“stupid 'tsumu. i also wanted to ask her that.” 
meanwhile, you turned the lever of the shower and closed your eyes.
i thought he was gonna ask me about our current relationship earlier. you thought as the water hit your skin.
i chickened out earlier. osamu thought as he turned on the stove.
both sighed in defeat.
next time, i’m really going to ask it! they both said for a million times, only to not bring it up tomorrow.
Tumblr media
hope you enjoyed that one, because i did. reblogs would be much appreciated!
if you'd like to support me and my broke ass, you can tip me at my ko-fi acc! thank you very much!

i swear there's nothing weird here, but fluffy stuff! BELEIVE ME
Tumblr media
running as fast as you can, you narrowly missed everyone you passed by. huffing heavily, you turned to a corner and saw the door you were desperately trying to reach.
you hold it and slide it open. you stepped in smiling widely.
“safe!” you expressed wiping your face from the sweat.
“you really should try waking up earlier.” suna shouted from his seat.
“yeah, yeah. you should wake up earlier.” osamu added.
you narrowed your eyes and looked at his way. you walked to your chair, which is right in front of him.
“look at sir miya osamu, getting ahead of himself just because he got here earlier than usual. you're always just a little earlier than me, sir.” you scoffed as you placed your things to the side but he just grinned and took a bite on the onigiri he's eating, this early in the morning.
“are you on class duty today?” you asked him and he shook his head sideways. “then why are you early today?”
“i'm readying myself.” he answered briefly.
“for what?” you inquired, looking at him intently.
“later, i'll tell you.” he brushed off and ate the whole thing in his hand.
time passed by fastly and it's already time to return home. you fixed your things so that you can go home already.
while checking your notebook for the last time, you saw a different paper than yours, slipping out of it. you picked it up and read it.
‘go to the rooftop. i'll be waiting there.’
“are you really sure you're going to do this, bro?” suna asked his friend again.
“for the fourth time, yes, i am.” osamu answered laughing, but his hands were shaking inside the pocket of his jacket.
“yeah, i know you answered my same question four times already, but we're still here in the bathroom and you won't even step out of the door and go to the rooftop already.” suna pointed that made osamu's knees almost collapse, but he managed to stay standing by holding on to the concrete sink.
“i feel like i want to throw up all the onigiri i've eaten in my whole life, because of my nervousness.” osamu expressed, but suna just formed a straight line along his lips.
he reached for his phone when he felt it vibrate, while osamu talked to himself. atsumu messaged the middle blocker about the whereabouts of his other twin since he wasn't answering his phone. well, osamu turned it off the whole day, thinking it might break his concentration.
suna thought that maybe atsumu could help bring the courage out of osamu and he texted him what osamu was about to do.
suna wondered as to why atsumu only read his message and didn't reply. maybe he doesn't want to help. he thought and just sighed.
“okay. i'll really do this now.” osamu muttered looking at himself from the mirror. suna's head immediately returned to him, smiling. finally, after hours of talking to himself and getting ready. 
he bravely opened the door and started to walk in the roof's direction and suna behind him, for support.
while walking, suna remembered what he did just earlier.
“ah, i forgot to mention, i told atsumu that you are going to confess to her at the rooftop, but he didn't answer back. guess he doesn't want to h—” he stopped talking when osamu suddenly turned around looking at him with a surprised face.
“what—” he didn't even finish talking when osamu started sprinting to the rooftop. he didn't know what was happening, so he just followed osamu.
“hey! why are you running?!” he asked him as they got closer to the location.
“that pissed-hair rat…” osamu started. they finally arrived at the door to the rooftop. he opened it and saw the scene.
“i like you. would you be my girlfriend?” 
“...likes her too.” he finished. suna widened his eyes, even though it's not evident.
atsumu was standing in front of you, both his hands in his pockets, while you looked at him, puzzled.
you just went here on the rooftop to know why that person wanted you here, but you didn't expect to get confessed to.
not only by some random schoolboy, but it's a guy from the famous volleyball team.
‘is this real?’
‘earlier he almost broke the door when he opened it. he was breathing heavily, looking around and was relieved when he saw i'm the only person here.’
‘but, he suddenly turned confident and confessed when the door opened.’
‘who came in anyways?’ you looked at the door and saw almost the same thing as earlier.
a person who had the same face as the one in front of you, breathing hard. the only different thing is that there's someone with him.
“osamu, rintarou…” you called their names.
atsumu took a step closer to you. you lightly flinched and turned your head to him. 
“forget about him, focus on me.” atsumu was about to take another step, but you felt someone pulling you lightly behind them.
you looked up and were able to get the hint of the smell of osamu's perfume.
“what makes you think you can confess to her?” osamu asks his twin.
“what? isn't that what you're going to do also? trying to get ahead, too bad suna told me about your plan.” atsumu smirks.
“what?” you thought out loud. you looked at suna with confused eyes, he just nodded depleted.
he asked you to come close to him with his hands. you sneakily walked to his side, while the twins fought in their own world.
“you were asking why osamu is early today, even though he's not on duty today, right?” he said and you nodded. 
“well, it took him weeks to have the courage to tell you his feelings for you and decided to do it today, but he's so nervous that he wasn't able to sleep, so he just went to school early.” he said, shaking his head, recalling the moments.
“then, just now i messaged atsumu about what osamu was about to do, but i didn't know   atsumu also shared the same feelings for you. they might be twins, but falling for the same person is—”
“wait, wait, wait.” you halted him from talking and thought for a while, before laughing. “information that's coming in is too much for my brain capacity, i'm not even sure if i heard everything right?” you said laughing to yourself.
“you said they both like me?” you repeated, looking at the two.
“yeah, that's right.” suna answered and it made you chortled again. “what? you don't like them?” 
you stopped your laughter and looked at him. 
“it's not like i don't like them, but i'm not interested in anyone as of the moment.” you confessed.
“then why not one of them?” he joked, pointing to the two.
“eh? the two?” you said and looked at them, still bickering.
“i'm the better twin, you piss-hair.” osamu mocked.
“huh?! i'm clearly the better one! everyone can tell!” atsumu fought back.
“just shut up and go to practice. go play volleyball.” osamu lightly pushed atsumu back to the door.
“yeah, and i can make her happy when i become a pro one day, move!” he flicked osamu's arm off of him.
“huh?! like you playing volleyball can make her full?! i can make her onigiri and feed her!” osamu said, pinching the other one's cheeks.
“of course, i can! by that time, i'm already a pro, which means i'll get paid for every game i play!” atsumu shouted back and pulled osamu's hair.
suna looked at your worried face while you watched their petty fight. “ah, you see they also had an argument the other day because osamu decided not to continue playing volleyball after high school.”
‘i can't believe these two. they're really doing this in front of the person they like.’ suna thought and facepalmed.
“i can do that too! i'll put up a business for our future and if you want, i'll invite you to our wedding.” osamu smirked at his brother.
“huh?! you're the one getting invited to our wedding, but you don't really have to attend.” atsumu replied, grinning wider.
you sighed and continued to stare at them. 
“i'm pleased to know that they don't just want a temporary relationship and they're actually thinking about their future with me, but... they're thinking too far ahead!” you shouted, but the two weren't even listening.
“you turd! i can give her 20 babies!” atsumu added.
“shut up! i can give her as many as she wants!” osamu said, still not backing down.
you raised your brows and tilted your head sideways. 
“hey! how did the topic turn into that?” you said, crossing your arms on your chest.
“they didn't even ask if you wanted children.” suna commented.
“in the first place, why are they fighting like they're sure i'll choose one of them? what if i reject both of them? haha.” you joked at suna, but that statement was enough to halt the twins and looked at you.
“ah, they stopped.” suna denoted that made you fixed your eyes to the two, who now have a petrified look on their face.
they let go of each other and walked to you.
“eh?” you muttered as they got closer to you. you took a step back.
“do you like someone else?” osamu asked worriedly.
“no. i don't— i mean as i said earlier, right now, i don't.” you cleared.
“then do you like one of us?” atsumu leaned down to you. you shoved him away lightly by his chest. 
he decided to hold your hand that's still on his chest, wanting you to feel his heartbeat. you immediately looked up at him. 
feeling like you need to do something too, to get your attention. osamu chose to romantically hold your hand and kissed the back of it. after giving it some smooches, he placed it on his cheeks. you felt his soft and clear skin that you always note whenever you stare at his face when you talk to him.
you are unable to know what you should do or say, so you end up gazing back and forth at their dark blue and hazel eyes.
“ehem. what the fuck am i witnessing?” suna cleared his throat enough for all of you to remember that you have another person here on the rooftop.
you all looked at the rare disgusted face of suna and broke off from all the touching.
“uh... uhm... i need some time to think.” you asked them, but you were surprised when they both bowed down. 
“w-what?”
“you don't have to rush. we'll patiently wait for you.” osamu said, straightening his upper body and giving you a smile.
“we can be a jerk sometimes, but what i'm feeling is true and i just know samu's too. that's why you can take your time.” atsumu added and smiled with closed eyes.
you don't know why, but their statement made your heart flutter, it weirdly made you chuckle.
“thank you, you two.” 
then, the bell rang and the four of you returned to your rooms. 
Tumblr media
hope you enjoyed that one, because i did. reblogs would be much appreciated!

he's my top 2 husband btw, hehe. i luv me some bigbois
Tumblr media
“what should i do?” you sighed.
you hold the box with your office belonging inside tighter.
why’d they suddenly choose to lay off their workers? 
i know they’re just a small company, but that doesn’t mean that they shouldn’t be considerate of their workers. they forced us to resign without even giving us a heads up first.
you all better make sure my back pay is well computed and correct in amount. 
you sighed again.
past few weeks have already been so hellish and now this?
another deep exhale came out of your mouth.
“well, for now, let’s get yourself a meal, (y/n).” you told yourself to get off some steam because of your ex-company. 
with your back slumped, you walked around the shopping district to find yourself some delicious food. your eyes wanders around to the variety of showcases put in front of every shop. 
nothing really piques your hunger.
while walking, your orbs captured a shop across the street. 
“cake shop?” you whisper.
sweets are not really my forte, but right now, i’m salivating for some. 
hmm… 
okay, (y/n). let’s get us some cake.
you waited for the traffic light to change before walking to the other side of the street. you went straight to the shop and looked at their “today’s menu” board.
chocolate mousse…
sounds delicious.
you fixed yourself and were about to open the door when someone suddenly talked beside you.
“hey…” 
you quickly turned around and found a chest, or even lower. you looked up and saw a purple head gazing at you.
titan!
“y-yes? are you talking to me?” you asked.
he nodded his head.
“can i come with you?” 
“huh?”
a few seconds of silence.
you both stared at each other without muttering a single word.
when you realized he’s not going to elaborate further what he means by that, you took it upon yourself to ask him.
“um, sorry. what do you mean by that? you want to come with me?” you pointed at the shop. “you mean here?”
he nodded again.
“okay…? i guess… i don’t see any problem with that.”
can’t you just go in by yourself?
you pushed the door open and he quietly followed you behind.
does he just want someone to open the door for him?
you released the door when he got inside. you walked to the counter and finished up your order. they gave you a number and you went to find a seat, but…
why is he still following me?
when you found an open table, you took a seat. unsurprisingly, he did too.
what the hell is wrong with this guy?
“um, do you still need something else?” you asked him.
he was taking something out from his duffle bag. it was a candy snack. he opened it and took some in his mouth.
“why are you asking if i need something else? are you a waitress?” he said with a straight face and continued munching his snack.
“what—”
“why do you have a box full of office things? did you get fired? don’t mind.” he cut off with a monotone voice.
what’s with this guy?
“you know, i don’t have the energy to argue with someone right now. please spare me from your snarky remarks.” you said and looked away.
“i wasn’t trying to be snarky, though. that was meant to be comforting.” he replied, his snacks that he just opened, already finished up.
“you thought that was comforting?” you raised your one brow and looked him dead in the eyes.
he nodded. you sighed and shook your head in disbelief.
really… what the hell is wrong with this guy? 
you looked at him while he searched for something to eat in his bag that will satiate his hunger for now.
what else does he want? 
hmm…
from the looks of it, he seems like an athlete— no, he’s definitely an athlete. his height gave it away.
basketball or volleyball? i wonder which sport he plays.
what if he actually plays baseball? haha. that would be a plot twist.
“why are you staring at me? hm… did you fall in love with me?” he muttered as he munched continuously.
“ah—! of course, i didn’t!” you refuted and immediately looked away. 
damn, i didn’t even notice i was staring for that long. 
well, that sure was embarrassing, but i can’t believe he can straight-faced call out someone and ask them if they’ve fallen for him.
i don’t know if he’s just one confident man or just straightforward. or a jerk. 
“table number 23.” a man holding a tray said.
you both looked at his direction and saw him already putting down your food. 
“enjoy your food.” he muttered before turning around.
your eyes formed hearts in it as soon as you saw the cake in front of you. you were so focused on it you almost forgot you’re sharing a table with an unknown person.
you peeked up at this said person and was surprised by the amount of food in front of him.
“what is this? are you going to eat all of that?!” you asked.
“i've actually held back on ordering because we have an official game later.” he said and started eating the fruit cake first.
“what?! you have a game later?! how laid-back can you be to be eating right now?!” you asked him. it's as if the freaking out that he should be feeling is now transferred to you.
“look.”
he shook his head and showed you his phone.
the screen showed messages and call notifications from who seemed like his coaches and teammates. 
“they're looking for you already. god, some of them are already cursing you out.” you uttered as you read.
“i snuck out. but it's fine, because aka-chin is still in the plane because their flight was canceled for a few hours.” he explained.
“aka-chin?” you tilted your head.
“our captain. we're playing with some foreigners who wanted to have some revenge on us. we've already beaten them like five years ago and now they said they're getting their payback.” he added.
“heh… what sports are you playing?” you inquired. 
“basketball. hey, aren't you going to eat? if you're not eating yours, then can i have it?” he said and went to try to snatch your plate, but you immediately evaded his long-ass limbs.
“no! i'm going to eat this! stop stealing my cake!” you defended your pastry and hid it away from him.
he pouted for a bit before focusing back on his own food. 
you then didn't waste another time and started digging on your chocolate mousse cake. 
“mhm! so delicious!” you rejoiced as you took the first bite. 
so, he plays basketball. wait… i think i heard some news about that in the past. foreigners playing against japanese players… 
“ah. vorpal swords, right? your team's name.” you questioned and he just nodded as his mouth was full.
wow, i can't believe i'm eating with someone who basically represent our country—
“wait, why were you waiting outside in the first place?” you said.
he looked at you.
“because i didn't want to eat alone.” he plainly said.
“yeah, everyone can guess that. but, why'd you have to eat with me?” you asked and took another bite.
“because everyone else came in with their partner and you were alone. i don't want to stand out by coming in alone.” he answered as he finished another plate.
no, your height alone can steal everyone's attention.
“oh, i thought you wanted to eat with me because when you saw me you fell in love.” you joked, trying to get back at him for his joke earlier.
“i didn't fall in love with you at first sight, but i think i'm starting to.” he said without missing a beat, not even stopping his hands from stuffing his mouth with more desserts.
“you—! don't go saying things like that! jeez, you'll create some misunderstanding!” you pointed at him, flushed with his sudden bluntness.
he looked at you confused.
i'm serious, though. he thought, but decided to brush it off and just continue eating. 
you started fanning your hands over your face to create some air.
“gosh, it's suddenly so hot.” you segues. 
suddenly, his phone rang with a notification.
“ah. aka-chin has already arrived.” he said sadly.
noticing this, you smiled comfortingly at him.
“are you going now?” you asked him.
he nodded. 
he immediately readied his things and finished his food. he stood up and slings his bag on his shoulder. he looks at you and slightly bow his head.
you smiled at him.
“thank you for accompanying me.” he thanked. 
“bye-bye. thank you to you too. somehow, i forgot my problem for a while while talking to you.” you told him as you hit the box with your foot which is the problem you're referring to.
you waved at him and he turned around. he took one step towards the door then he suddenly turned around.
“what? did you forget something?” you asked.
“next week. same day and time. i'll be visiting this place again. can you accompany me again that time?” he said, looking at you earnestly.
“what? is this your way of asking me out on a date?” you teased.
even though it's faint, you can definitely see how his ears slowly turned red.
you chuckled.
“sure. i’d love to accompany you.”

Suna Rintarou x Reader
Word Count: 2.1k
A/N: This one's from my FB acc. Liked it, so posted it here too. Have a good day everyone! <;33
Tumblr media
He's there.
As usual, he has droopy eyes that seem like he's always sleepy and tired.
But, who knows if he really is? 
It's lunch and of course, he's sitting in the cafeteria with one of the Miya's, Osamu and their other classmates.
He uses his phone in one hand and the other holding the chopsticks, lazily feeding himself, while he scrolls at something on the gadget.
It seems like he found something interesting that he called for his friends' attention and showed them his phone. They all laughed together.
Despite his appearance, he's very friendly. Not the type that befriends everyone he crosses paths with, but the one that will accompany and joke around with you, once he gets comfortable with you.
I wonder if I can get close to him too— That's... impossible. I can't even talk to him! Let alone tell my friends that I like him!
I gotta keep it a secret for now.
The bell rings and it's time to go back to your room. Meaning, it's also time for him to go back.
NOO!
Lunchtime is too fast!
I wanna see Suna more! 
“(Y/n)? 'Ya okay?” Your friend asked, interrupting your train of thoughts.
Oh, shoot. That's right. I gotta keep it a secret for now, but I need to improve my relationship with Suna too! 
“Yeah! Sorry, I'm going to Sun— I mean, our room first!” You said and gave the cafeteria's tray back and slowly walked to his room's direction.
I'm going to peek at him before I go back to my room. I want some inspiration to get through this day! 
As you disappeared from the corner looking so determined, your friends looked at each other.
“Hey, about her crush on Suna…” One of your friends spoke. “How long are we supposed to act like we don't know it?” 
“Seems like she plans to tell us about it, let's just wait for her.” Another said and took the last spoonful of her meal and the rest let out a sigh in sync. “Hm?” 
“Just so 'ya know, I'm dying to tease her about her crush.” She replied as they headed to return to your guy's room.
“‘Ya know she'd die of embarrassment if 'ya tell her how she's trying her hardest to keep it a secret, when her actions speak for itself, haha.” 
“Okay, then once she admits about it, let's drag her in front of Suna!” They said and laughed. 
Eeek—! Huh? What's that?
“I just felt shivers down my spine. What's that?” You looked around and let out a relieved sigh when you thought that it was just the wind.
Before you walk through the aisle, you make sure to primp your hair and uniform.
You held your hair and placed it behind your ears, you peaked just above your hand trying to hide that you were actually looking. You immediately looked at where his seat was as soon as you passed by their door.
You see him sitting by the window, laughing with his friends again, behind him is Osamu eating onigiri.
Ugh! His faint smile! He looks so dreamy! 
Ah, shit. That's too much.
I should look away, gazing at him for too long is bad for my heart. His fineness is an overkill. He's a god sent.
I've done my mission. I gotta go back to my classroom, but I'll wash my face first. He's too hot, I think I'm sweating.
Gotta hurry, gotta hurry~ 
As soon as you passed their room, you skipped your way to the closest restroom.
Osamu looked at where you disappeared to the hallway. He finished his food first and drank his milk.
“Hey Suna,” He called to his friend.
Suna turned his head sideways, just the right amount to see the guy behind him over his shoulder. His previous chatmates went back to their respective chairs and he's just scrolling through his phone.
“So, about 'yer little admirer…” 
The middle blocker's lips immediately formed a smile.
“What? Cute, isn't she?” He answered and continued scrolling on his phone.
“‘Yer liking it, don't 'ya?” Osamu sighed as he wiped his hands with a tissue.
“What? You jealous?” Suna asks with a clear intention of pissing off the guy behind him. “I mean, I understand. Every guy probably wants to be in my position right now. Like come on, it’s (Y/n).”
“Anyways, I'm amazed how she firmly and made herself believe that no one knows about how she feels. I heard she does well in academics, but I guess it's not the same with love, seeing how she's acting. Well, I do think it's cute.” It must've been wrongly worded and maybe he didn't execute it the way he intended, that right now he can see how Suna's eyes looked at him in an icy yet deadly way.
“Don't 'ya worry. I'm not interested.” Osamu clarified and placed his elbow on the table and rested his cheeks on his palm. Hearing it, Suna's face somehow calmed down and went back to his phone.
“So? When will 'ya confess to her?” He asked lazily.
“What?” Suna asked Osamu, shock evident on his face.
“Huh? What?” The gray-haired twin asked.
“Am I that obvious? Even though I'm hiding it?” Suna put a hand above his mouth.
Gosh, they're the same. Osamu thought.
“Yes, 'ya were that obvious and I've never, even once, saw 'ya tried to hide it. Also, 'ya have an album in 'yer gallery full of pictures of her pictures from her social media. If I were her I'd be creeped out. 'Ya should ask for her permission first.” Osamu cracked out with an unamused look.
“You're right— Wait! Why do you know that?”
“When I was deleting the video of me doing dumb shits. I happened to look at it, though, I left 'Tsumu's, I only deleted mine.” He explained.
“Seems like I need to change my passcode,” Suna said and immediately went to his settings. 
“So, when?” Osamu once again questioned.
“Hm... Who knows? Maybe once she finally approaches me. She's always running away whenever she spots me walking towards where she is. If I try to approach her, she'll probably just run off as always.” Suna answered and finished changing his password.
“I wonder when that will be.” Osamu said and at the same time the door opened and their teacher came in.
•••
“It's finished!” Your friend shouted in joy as soon as your last subject teacher walked out of the door.
“My brain's fried.” The other one said and slumped on her desk, but then stood up as fast. “Let's do something fun!” She suggested. 
“Sounds nice.” You agreed and finished packing your things.
“Let's go, let's go! Let's decide what to do while walking.” Your friend said as she pulled you and your other friend out of your room.
While walking to the shoe locker, you reached for your phone and saw if you had any messages unread.
“(Y/n), what do you suggest?” She asked.
“Mhm.” You answered absentmindedly, being so focused on your phone.
“What?” Your friend asked if you were really listening.
“Yeah.”
Your two friends looked at each other and both grew a mischievous grin on their lips.
“Am I beautiful?”
“Yeah.”
“Me too, right?”
“Of course.”
“Then, do you like Suna?”
“I do. I want to get close to him, but I get too nervous and can't speak— HMM?!” You shot your head, looking back and forth between them.
“No— I— I was just kiddi—” 
They put a finger on your lips to shush you.
“If that's your problem, then we'll solve it for you.” They said, nodding to each other. 
“Wha—!?” 
You weren't able to finish it, as they wrapped their arms on both of yours. They dragged you with all their might. You tried to fight it, asking them what their plans were but they won't answer nor budge. When you reached the shoe locker, you felt their arms loosen, your lips formed a smile, thinking they're done, but oh were you wrong.
“Ouch!” You yelped when they suddenly pushed you and your back hit someone. 
“What are you two doing?! Sorry, sorry!” You apologized to the person, bowing. You looked back at your friends without even batting an eye on the person you bumped into.
“SORRY! BUT, WE'RE NOT REALLY SORRY!” Your friend shouted as they ran away.
“I THINK YOU'LL EVEN THANK US FOR THAT!” The other one said.
“Huh? What are you talking about?!” You asked them with a slightly higher voice since they're getting farther.
“SUNA! (Y/N) SAID SHE LIKES YOU! HAHAHAHA!” The two said together in chorus and then hid from your vision.
Huh?
Huh??
HUH?!? 
SUNA?! YOU MEAN THAT SUNA RINTAROU?!
THIS GUY BEHIND ME?! THE ONE I BUMPED INTO?! NO WONDER HE SMELLS GOOD! WAIT- NO!
Wait, wait, wait... (Y/n), let's calm down. Maybe they're just joking... maybe they're just joking... maybe they were—
“THEY WEREN'T JOKING!” You spouted when you turned around and saw Suna looking at you with shoes in his hand. 
You put your hands in your face, hiding the redness of it from who knows where it came from. 
Excitement because he's in front of you? Embarrassment because of how your friends threw you onto him? Or maybe it's because of how close he is? Well, all in all, he's connected to all the reasons. 
“Hey.” He greeted and continued to put away his indoor shoes.
You peeked through your fingers to look at him, when he met your eyes, you immediately buried your face deeper, if possible, in your palms.
“Why are you hiding your face?” He asked casually.
You shook your head vigorously as if your life depends on it. 
“Hm... Okay.” He replied and it was followed by silence between the two of you. Only the sounds of the other students making, chattering and laughing and some were even looking at you two, thanks to your friends making a scene and you just standing there with your hands on your face.
What is this awkwardness?!
Should I talk about something? No! Impossible! I'm too nervous to speak!
But, he's not making any noise either. Wait. Is he still there in the first place? 
You slowly parted your fingers again and opened your eyes. 
“Oh shit!” You cursed out of surprise.
He's still there! And, he's just looking at me! What should I do?! 
That's right. I should just run away!
I can't face him right now!
You then turned around and directed your feet where your friends disappeared and were still hiding there.
Sorry, my dear friends, but for now ABORT MISSION—! 
As soon as Suna noticed you moving, he immediately thought of exactly what you were thinking. He held your wrist tight enough to not let you slip off of his hand.
“Running away? You can’t.” He predicted. You were pulled back by it but tried your best not to bump into him again. You've done your utmost not to look up at him. Why? You'd faint.
NO! MY CHANCE OF ESCAPE!
“Um... Sorry, but... go… my hands…” Damnit! My voice is betraying me!
I need to get out of here!
“Hey, about what your friends said…” You've widened your eyes at what he said.
NO! I've even tried my best not to make anyone notice! Damn messages! 
But, I'm already here. There's no way I can escape from this anymore. 
You took one deep breath, deeper than any sea in the world. You held his wrist, the one holding you, with your free hand and squeezed it lightly.
“Sorry, but I think I like you, Suna.” You finally confessed after mustering up all the courage in your body.
Another silence from him followed you.
Ugh... Is this where I'd get rejected? 
And then he chuckled.
I knew it! I'd get rejected! Should I tell him it's just a joke?
You shut your eyes tightly but then felt a finger on your chin. You opened your eyes and felt Suna's thumb just below your lips.
And finally, after how many minutes... You finally looked at his face.
Even though the thought of getting rejected was just in your mind earlier, looking at him now, you don't even care if he'll trample over your feelings.
His grayish-yellow eyes… His combed down hair… His posture that sometimes kills you… It’s all making you go crazy over him.
“I knew it.... Suna, I really do like you.” You muttered softly staring right into his eyes.
His lips formed a smile.
He pulled your hand to his lips and kissed your knuckles.
“Yeah, I know.” He chuckled.

oikawa tooru x reader
wc: 1.5k
a/n: sorry but i wrote this few years back. i don't know about this one
Tumblr media
ever since childhood, your hobby has always been reading books and stories. there's a certain joy that you're feeling every time you read and imagine the scenarios. it makes your heart flutter.
that's also the reason why you're always in your school's library, piles of books all around you, waiting for them to be read or be returned to their shelves.
but now, you realize that reading books isn't the only thing that can make your heart flutter.
you've heard of them multiple times in your class, the hot guys from the volleyball team and most of them are from the third year, the same as you.
but the most popular one is their captain. the one with the most fangirls.
you never thought that you'd fall for the brunette, noting that you've never fallen in love before.
he once visited the library and there you found him, elegantly flipping the pages while wearing glasses and his face resting on his face.
looking at him made you nervous, causing the books you're holding to fall and cause a sound. he immediately lifts his eyes to you.
“sorry.” you sheepishly apologized.
“hehe, it's fine, (y/n)-chan.” he smiled widely at you. him saying your name surprised you.
“you know me?” you asked him with wide eyes. he nodded.
“mhm. i always see you whenever i go here to borrow some books, so i asked around for your name.” he answered beaming.
“ah.” you replied shortly, you tried to go back to reading, but his stare and the silence is killing you.
“u-um, why are you here at the library today?” you tried to start the conversation.
he raised his eyebrows before awkwardly scratching the back of his head.
“well, i'm just trying to get my mind off of some things.” he said.
some things? ah, those rumours... 
“did your girlfriend dump you?” you asked him forwardly.
he was taken aback and blinked multiple times, when you realized what you just said, you immediately put a hand on your mouth and bowed repeatedly at him.
“i'm sorry! i'm sorry! i didn't mean to say it like that! i'm sorry for being nosey!” you apologized to him, while making sure that you don't bother the other students.
“no, it's fine, it's fine. i didn't expect that you’re interested in other people’s lives.” he said. “but, you're right. i was trying to forget about the breakup and maybe move on too.” 
you saw his pained expression and it somehow pained you too. so, you stood up and took his hand to yours.
“don't worry! i'm sure you'd be able to do it! i know you're amazing! so, don't give up!” you energetically stated, that surprised him.
“t-thank—” 
“sorry to break the moment, but can you please tone it down a bit? we're in a library.” you both jumped slightly when the librarian came out of nowhere.
you both apologized and then chuckled to yourselves when the librarian left.
since then, every time you come to the library, you will see oikawa already seated and waiting for you, whenever he doesn't have practice.
he'd always ask for your recommendations of what book to read next and it made you happy because he really read every single one of your suggestions.
it makes you always look forward whenever you'll walk your way to the place, and see the person who your heart beats for.
but there's this thought that keeps you from confessing.
what if the time where he finally moved on from his previous girlfriend comes?
will he stop coming to the library anymore?
will he stop talking to me already? 
every time these thoughts run through your head, you just find yourself pivoting your feet back to your classroom and just stay there in your free time.
“what's wrong with (y/n)? she never comes to the library these days.” your friend said to your other friend, while they looked at you slumped on your desk looking nowhere.
“who knows? she's usually very excited when the break comes and now—” 
“kyahhh!!” 
the conversation between your friends was cut off when they heard the squeals coming from the door.
they looked at it and saw oikawa wandering his eyes, obviously searching for someone.
“oikawa, who are you searching for?” one girl asks.
“(y/n).” he shortly answered, not sparing a glance at the girl and focused on searching.
your two friends looked at each other with wide eyes, before they walked to you and shook your body.
“ugh. what?” you groaned. they didn't answer you and just continued to shake you.
“what is i—” you raised your head to look at them, only to see them looking at someone at the door.
you widened your eyes and stood up panicky.
“o-oikawa?!” you muttered that immediately got the setter's attention.
his face straightaway flashed a sweet smile as he waved to you, not minding the other girls that wanted to take a picture with him.
“(y/n)-cha—” he didn't finish speaking when you pulled him by his arms and took him to a corner where it's rarely visited by students.
“aw, that hurts, (y/n)-chan.” he whined holding his arms while pouting.
“sorry!” you tried to check his hand and leaned forward, only to be flicked lightly on the forehead.
you confusedly looked up at him, while touching your forehead and saw him giving you a closed-eye smile.
“just kidding!” he said.
“eh?” 
“(y/n)-chan, i didn't know you were so mean.” he huffed and crossed his arms. you furrowed your brows asking him what he meant.
“i’m waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting for (y/n)-chan to appear at the library, but i'm always disappointed because you never arrived.” he pouted even more and looked the other way.
you looked down and fiddled with your fingers.
“i'm just trying to lessen the anguish.” you whispered, but he heard it clearly.
“why? are you sick?” he asked worriedly. you shook your head sideways, which made oikawa breathe in relief.
“then, why—”
“once you finally move on, you won't visit the library anymore, since you don't need to distract your mind anymore!” you shouted, finally deciding to tell him the truth after all this time.
you bite your lower lip, scared of what his reply will be.
“but, i already moved on a long time ago.” he calmly said. you peered up at him, surprised by his confession.
you examined his face and noticed how serious he is, which made you even more confused.
“huh? you did?” you asked and he nodded.
“then why do you keep on going to the library?” you asked him, seeking an answer.
he was surprised by your straightforwardness, it’s making his cheeks red.
“what's wrong with wanting to visit the girl i learned to like? also, she's always there, of course, i'll go there.” he explained.
the girl he loved that's always in the library? 
you let out a gasp and oikawa smiled at you, thinking you already deduced it.
“the librarian?!” you said and put a hand on your mouth.
“wrong! not her! she's already married, in the first place!” he denied.
oikawa sighed heavily, before putting his hands on your shoulders.
“(y/n)... i'm talking about you. the girl i learned to like by just spending my time with her.” he stared into your eyes and you felt like you should stare back at him.
“at first, i thought that it's because of the story that keeps me wanting to read and read, but when i tried to read by myself, my mind kept wandering to you. i was able to move on without problem unconsciously because you always occupy my head and that's when i realized that i’m starting to like the most beautiful bookworm i've ever seen.” he narrated, looking at you affectionately.
you felt your eyes water, but oikawa quickly wiped it, before it fell on your cheeks. he kissed your forehead and pulled you into his arms. 
you hugged him back tightly while thinking how stupid you were to avoid him.
“why didn't you tell me?” you asked him, still hugging him.
“i was about to, but then i realized, what if you won't accept me? i know i'm a shitty person sometimes and that you deserve the best.” he muttered and nuzzled his nose on your shoulder.
“that's why i tried to read every book you've read so that we can have something to talk about, every time we meet, while i try to make myself better for you, but then you suddenly stopped showing up, i got scared that i did something that annoyed you or that you don't want to read books with me anymore.” he admitted.
“so, that's why you suddenly appeared in my classroom. and you're not shitty.” you said chuckling lightly. “sorry for avoiding you out of nowhere.” you said, but he said that it's fine.
he disconnected the hug and looked at you.
“(y/n), i'm going to take my chance right now. would you be my girlfriend?” he asked while looking at you worriedly.
you placed your hand on his cheeks and he quickly held it, caressing it softly.
“i'll gladly be your girlfriend anytime. you're the only one who made my heart flutter, except for books.” you accepted.
he pouted a bit, before placing another kiss on your forehead.
“i guess, i have to do my best to make your heart go crazy, now that i'm competing with an inanimate object for your attention.” he joked before pulling you for another hug.

sakusa kiyoomi x reader
wc: 441 words
i'm just trying to make a first pov, tell me what you think!
Tumblr media
‘kiyoomi.’
‘when you were in a relationship with her, you were so happy. the happiest i've ever seen you.’
‘when she said you weren't enough. she wanted you to change. she wanted you to do things you are uncomfortable with and hated.’
‘you got so heartbroken.’
‘but, i was there.’
‘i didn't leave your side.’
‘i wanted to say that, “you don't need to change. you're perfect just like that.”.’
‘how there is someone out there who will accept everything about you and would want you just the way you are.’
‘and that person is me.’
‘you joked saying that's what you always hear in movies and ending with the person who said that is actually in love with the other.’
“because, i am.”
‘i thought i was just thinking about it, but i actually said it.’
‘i actually said that i am in love with you.’
‘how badly i want to take back those words now. or do i?’
‘you stared at me and said, “why don't we get together, then?” without any expression.’
‘who am i to turn that down?’
‘but, i should've known.’
‘with the way you act. how i noticed how persistent you were about wanting to change yourself, reasoning you wanted to change for yourself and not for anyone else. maybe, i actually believed that lie.’
‘i should've known how different you were when you were with her than when you were with me.’
‘i should've known.’
‘it’s not me who you see everytime you look at my eyes, but her. it’s always been her.’
‘you barely succeed, though. you managed to control how you act in front of other people, and not make them feel awkward, but that's all.’
‘so, now what?’
‘you suddenly said you want to break up with me.’
‘you said i changed.’
‘i see.’
‘so, i changed, but you didn't?’
‘well, maybe you actually didn’t.’
‘you didn't, because you went back to her. feeling triumphant that you are now what she wanted you to be.’
‘now, i feel like shit.’
‘am i supposed to be your rehabilitation center?’
‘you used me to change yourself… for her.’
‘and what did you get?’
picking up the phone with his name and number showing on the screen, you answered it without hesitation.
“hello?” you greeted him. you were answered by silence. 
“hello?” you repeated.
“she cheated.”
‘so, this is what you got.’
“can you come over?”
‘for what?’
‘for me to comfort you again? and be used again? hah.’
‘somehow i know you'll use me again.’
‘but, as long as it's you....’
“yeah, sure. i'll be there in twenty.”
‘...i'll be your willing victim.’
Tumblr media
hope you enjoyed that one. likes and reblogs would be much appreciated!

kuroo tetsurou x reader
word count: 1.2k
just posted this one on my fb acc
Tumblr media
kuroo tetsurou is your high school sweetheart. everyone from the sidelines can see how kuroo cares for you and how much you care for him too.
they know how deeply he is in love with you, by the way he looks, the way he talks and the way he acts. you were his top priority.
were. 
ever since you got married and moved in together, you thought that it would be just like how you dreamt it would be.
even though both of your finances were not enough to buy the dream house you two wanted since the start of the relationship, it was fine for you.
eappy faces, laughing together while drinking your favorite drinks, playing and teasing with each other.
but it's not like that at all. it was, at first only.
these past weeks, months, kuroo tetsurou, the man you loved and vowed to, changed. you, yourself knew why.
the relationship became bumpy. petty fights here, out of place jealousy from him there and many others. 
it was rather toxic.
but, you made yourself believe that it would be fixed, that everything will be back and that one will apologize to the other.
“I'm sorry.” 
he apologized and asked for another chance. you forgave him and thought that everything would go back to normal already, however it didn't.
he became busier and busier every passing day, weeks and months, to the point where you will sleep without him and wake up without him.
it was lonely.
it was lonely, but you wondered.
why doesn't it hurt? 
oh. 
you snickered mockingly to yourself as you stared into the ceiling of your guy's bedroom. the room that was once filled with sweet and romantic memories you shared with him.
you sat up and reached for your phone then went to the contacts, searching for a certain number, when you found it, you smiled weakly at the screen. 
you contemplated whether to press the call button or not, but in the end, you still smashed the icon with the telephone. after four rings, it was finally answered.
“sorry for calling this late, but i wanted to talk about something.” 
the next morning, surprisingly enough when you woke up, your husband was still there. he was putting on his uniform when he looked at you, while he stood in front of the mirror.
“why are you still here?” you asked him.
“we'll start late today because the boss had something to do.” he answered and looked back at himself in the mirror. you didn't say anything after and just awkwardly fixed your hair.
“also, i have free time next week, how about we go out for dinner somewhere?” he fixed his hair, not sparing a glance at you. you just scratched your nape and nodded.
“hmm... yeah, sure…” you answered flatly. he finally looked at you, but while raising one brow and grinning a bit.
“what? you don't sound excited at all, in the past you would've screamed and things. you don't want to? fine by me. it doesn't really matter.” he said giving his clothes the last touches.
“no. i'm fine with it. i'll go.” 
...
i'm here. 
you read the message kuroo had sent, and you just arrived in front of the building too. you didn't reply, and put your phone in your handbag, with your other hand holding something else.
you opened the door and searched for him, you saw him anxiously waiting. you walked up to him and your attention immediately got stolen by an envelope sitting on the table.
how funny fate can be? is it a coincidence that on your left hand, you're holding an envelope too?
“hey,” you called. he looked up at you and smiled.
“hey, babe.” he greeted you. he stood up and tried to peck a kiss on your lips, but you evaded it. you seated in front of him and placed the file on the table too.
he thought that you didn't do that intentionally and probably didn't see that he was going for a kiss.
as soon as kuroo saw the envelope, you didn't miss the smile formed on his lips, which he immediately brushed off.
“let's order first?” kuroo asks and you just nod.
when the food was served, you two dug in, but it was quiet. it's like this is your first date, except you don't feel excited at all.
“i want to talk to you.” you said, dropping the utensils you're holding on the plate.
“actually, me too—” 
“no, kuroo. whatever you want to say, i am sure it might be the same as mine or if not, then it's not that important.” 
kuroo furrowed his brows together, taken aback by your sudden call on the last name. 
“go on then.” he said and let go of the cutlery in his hands.
“do you still love me?” you asked him. he tilted his and smiled.
“of course, i do. that's why we're on a date today, right?” he answered.
“oh, i see. then why don't you act like it?” your face showed no expression as you talked.
“what? i do show you tha—” 
“the time you apologized, i thought everything would go back to how it was, but it didn't. you became busier, and i felt like we're too far from each other. i tried to fix it. i tried, for the second time, but it wasn't me that's the problem.” you ran your hands on your hair, fighting your tears from falling. you looked down, not wanting to see whatever expression he had on his face.
“tetsurou, it's tiring. i'm tired.” you added, you felt him trying to reach for your hand, but you snatched it away from him.
“every day, i eat by myself in the morning and it would be the same in dinner. i'll sleep without you, and still wake up without you.” you continued, kuroo still silently listening to you.
“i... longed for the man i loved. the man who said he'll keep me feeling loved and appreciated, that in exchange i'll make feel the same towards him, but he's gone.” it finally dropped. the tears that you hold back all this time.
“(y/n), i—” 
“kuroo... i'm scared to give you another chance.” you reached for the envelope and handed it to him.
“what's this?” he asked you as you stood up.
“let's end this.” you answered and grabbed your things.
“oh.” he simply said.
“i'll wait for it with your sign. please send it to my parent's house.” you said and finally left the restaurant.
kuroo let out a shaky breath, before putting the envelope on the table. he placed his arm on his forehead and leaned on the chair as he reminisced about everything about the past month.
how he would wake up and head out immediately after getting ready, how he would go home with you already sleeping soundly and how much he completely neglected you.
he sat straight up and reached for the envelope, not the one he gave you, but the one he brought with him.
he opened it and tears fell on his cheeks.
he stared at the piece of paper, he worked hard for and also the reason why you're not here with him anymore.
“Certificate of Title”
it was the dream house of you two. 
it doesn't mean anything anymore if the one he wanted to live there with, is already gone. He thought as he grabbed the pen in his suit pocket.
Tumblr media
hope you liked it!
also, if you'd like to tip me, you can check my ko-fi acc! anything will be a big help!
