Soon after Halloween, Tokyo had its first snowfall. On the way to school, Bokuto paused to catch snowflakes on his tongue, something he'd done since he was a kid. Akaashi watched wearily. Sure it was adorable, but that didn't excuse the fact that they would be late for school. Surprisingly nothing had changed since the party. He thought that Bokuto would've told the whole school about their hookup by now. In fact, he hadn't mentioned it since. Hajime on the other hand had pestered him about it as soon as they got home. Akaashi only needed to make one off handed remark about Oikawa's neck before he shut up. It was hilarious really, how did newbies like them get caught up with two of the school's most popular guys? They were either extremely lucky or extremely unfortunate.
"Bokuto-san, you cannot stand outside of my house and catch snowflakes all day. We are going to be late- or have you forgotten that both of us attend school?" A thin layer of snow was starting to cover the windshield of Bokuto's car. "Not to mention you don't have a single piece of warm clothing on."
"Wrong! I'm wearing your scarf, Agaashi. And it's pretty warm." Akaashi gave Bokuto a look. Most people would've read it as nothing more than tired, but Bokuto knew that it meant get your ass in the car and stop mouthing off to me. He sighed and got in the car. "'Kaashi?"
"What?"
"You said we would date. When's that gonna be?"
Akaashi froze. In all honesty, he shouldn't have been surprised that Bokuto would bring their "situation" up. It was a miracle he had even held back this long. "I don't know Bokuto-san. Soon." Akaashi replied.
"How soon is soon? I want to be with you nowww," Bokuto whined, "oh shit." He redirected the steering wheel just in time for them to miss a deep ditch. Akaashi rubbed his temples.
"Focus on the road. I already told you that I'd let you know when we can. Right now isn't a good time." Akaashi picked at a thread on his coat. How was he supposed to tell Bokuto he didn't want to be with him? Of course he liked Bokuto, that much Akaashi was sure of. But he was afraid. Afraid of what the people at school would think, what his parents would think- what Bokuto's parents would think. What if people started to talk about them? It annoyed him that he actually cared about what other people thought, but they were from different worlds. Bokuto was going to be the heir to the Furodani corporation. Akaashi didn't even know what he wanted to do. What if people thought he was only with Bokuto for his money? It obviously wasn't true but how was he to know what others assumed? It just wouldn't work out. For now, he would have to keep pushing it away.
"Whadda ya mean it's not a good time? We've been hanging out for two months. We go home together every day, we've been on a date, I mean we touched each other's dicks. I don't see why we should wait to make it official," Bokuto chuckled. Then, he eyed Akaashi. "Unless.. You don't actually want to be my boyfriend." Akaashi said nothing. Bokuto's smile wavered slightly. "Agaashee, are you trying to tell me you don't want to be with me?" Akaashi's head snapped up.
"That's not what I'm saying!"
"Sure sounds like it." Bokuto's voice still held a cheerful tune, but it sounded forced. Akaashi shook his head.
"Well it's not," he said stiffly.
"Then what is it? Why can't we be together? I really don't get it-"
"Because I've already said we can't. Stop talking about it- this conversation is done."
Bokuto made a particularly sharp turn. His smile was completely gone now. "I won't stop asking until you tell me the real reason you won't date me."
"Bokuto-san, please."
Bokuto frowned. "I just want to know!"
"And I already said no-"
