A Second Chance [Atsumu x Reader]

AU Side Story 3

A pair of  brown eyes slowly opened. Blinking a bit, he saw that his head was laid on a table as there were some school books and two notebooks on there with him. A bit confused, he rubbed his eyes a bit.

"Did you finally wake up?" a familiar voice questioned.

The blonde's hair quickly turned, hearing the voice and saw the h/c haired female as she had a warm smile on her lips as her e/c eyes stared at him. He opened his mouth but nothing came out.

"What? Does my beauty leave you speechless?" she joked, continuing to look at him. Without a word, he pulled her into a hug, making the female a bit startled. "You okay?" she questioned, making him nod before digging his face into the crook of her neck. Her smell was faint.

"Yeah. Just...I had a nightmare..." he said quietly. She hummed in response as he felt her arms hug him back as one of her hands rubbed his back comforting.

"Wanna talk about it?" she questioned. He replied back with a mumbled no to which she hummed again. It was quiet between the two of them. It still bothered the male as he held the female closer to him as he possibly could, because he felt like she could slip through her hands if he didn't.

"Just..." he started, making her let out a soft chuckle, seeing that he was going to tell her anyways despite him telling her he didn't want to. "We had a kid" he mumbled. She pulled away a bit and furrowed her brows.

"Your nightmare was us having a kid?" she questioned, making him shake his head.

"No, that's something that would be nice, y'know? Have a family of our own" He gave her a small smile to which she only nodded in reply. "Just...You weren't there..." he lowered his head, biting the inside of his cheek. "Your mom said that.. you were dead. And all there was left from you was our kid and a letter you wrote for me and him." he explained.

"Him?" she questioned.

He let out a small chuckle. "Yeah, him."  he replied. "Looked just like me. Maybe two or three years old?" he said.

"Did.. did you learn his name?" she questioned.

"It was Koji" he answered. He watched as a smile graced her lips.

"What a nice name. I probably picked it out since you're bad at names" she teasingly said. He pouted a bit, making her chuckle.

It was soon quiet between the two of them once again. The two teens not saying anything until the female spoke up again. "Did you take care of him?" she questioned him.

"Hm?" he hummed in question to let her know that he didn't hear her.

"Did you take care of him?" she questioned.

"Did I take care of him?" he questioned, looking at her. 

She hummed in response and started to run her fingers through his hair. "Yeah. Did you play with him and keep him company?" she questioned.

 Atsumu stayed silent, slightly biting the inside of his cheek. "No" he finally replied.

"Why not?" she asked.

"I just got the news that you died and that I have to take care of a kid right after I got home. I don't know if I'm able to raise him" he said honestly.

"That is true.." she said. "But imagine how he feels too" she said.

"What do you mean?" Atsumu questioned.

"Well, if you think about it, he's only two years old whose mom died just last year. The only family he knows of is his grandma and his mom who sadly died. He might start thinking about his dad. He might question 'Did he die too?' or even 'Did he leave me?' ya know?" she explained with a soft smile. "So you have to be there for him, even if I'm not there"
