y/n POV

I turn my head at the sound of the familiar bell and see a certain bed head. I watch as his breath rate slows down and he enters the store. I didn't have any other customers in the store but he still looked around to make sure.

"What happened? Bokuto texted me saying you had an emergency," he pants.

That damn owl.

"Bokuto was just being dramatic. There is no emergency, I'm sorry you had to run all the way here."

"No it's okay, on the off chance something did happen to you I had to run. I didn't think that was the case though, Bokuto does exaggerate things a lot."

I laugh, "Yea he does."

It got quiet and I started fiddling with the bouquet I was holding behind my back. It was now or never, I had to tell him how I felt.

"Um, so I have to tell you something," I say nervously.

"Yea go ahead, I'm listening."

I bring the bouquet out and hold it up to him looking him right in the eye. His eyes widen a little and a hint of red dusts his cheeks.

"I like you Tetsurō," I blurt out.

Kuroo stood there in shock not saying anything. He gently took the flowers out of my hand and inspected them. He looks disappointed.

This was a mistake.

Stupid Mika and Daishō.
Stupid Bokuto.
Stupid me.

I feel my tears threaten to fall and look down at the ground to hide my embarrassment.

"Damn it, you beat me to it," Kuroo says disappointed, "I wanted to be the one who confessed first."

I look up at him without saying anything and see his blush. He holds the flowers up to face and smiles looking at each one.

"I really like how you gave me flowers. It added to the experience."

Was that an answer? He said he wanted to be the one who confessed first so was that him saying he likes me back? I feel my embarrassment come back and look down again to hide my face.

A pair of calloused hands, however, gently pull my face up.

"I like you too y/n."

"Really? You're not joking or anything?"

"Yes, I wouldn't joke about something like this. I was actually planning out how I was going to confess to you. I was thinking about taking us to that arcade place we went to with Bokuto and Akaashi, but your idea was much better. What better place to confess then where we first met each other? It's perfect," he says holding the hydrangeas up to his nose.

This is really happening.

Kuroo Tetsurō, captain of Nekoma's volleyball team likes me back.

"Can I be your boyfriend? I want to tell everyone that you're mine," he asks, "I can't have anyone stealing you from me. especially since I know for sure you like me back."

"Even if they tried, no one would be able to steal me from you. You're the one I love."

"Love?" he raises his eyebrow.

Shit. I said like before and now just jumped to love.

"I hope we're not moving too fast, but I love you too."

He takes my hand and pulls me from behind the counter to where he is standing.

In the middle of my parent's convenience store, under the dim fluorescent lights and soft hum of radio music.

Kuroo Tetsurō kisses me.
