Chapter 26. Atsumu's Heartache

Bakayama:
"Thinking about you <3"

I stand there shocked at the text message in front of me. Why would he text me something like that? We're not together, I turn off the sink and turn towards Atsumu who looked really sad. "Tsumu... I have no idea..." I say trying to reassure him but his face doesn't change from its sad expression. "you like him back don't you?" Atsumu said and I could feel my heart drop to my stomach. "No Tsumu! I love you! Don't ever think that I like him back like that." I say and he pulls away from me backing up. I start to get a bit nervous about his actions, does he not believe me? "Shoyo, it... feels so weird," Atsumu said placing a hand on his chest, right over his heart. "Every time a guy comes near you or even looks at you like they want you.. this feeling grows," Atsumu said and I walk to him getting closer.

      He backed up as I walked forward. I stopped walking and stood there making sure he didn't move back any further. "What does it feel like Tsumu?" I ask and he closes his eyes. "It's like an uncomfortable feeling.. in my heart.." Atsumu said and took a step closer to me, my eyes widen. He has that same aching feeling I used to have, those felt horrible. He's been dealing with it with every dude that looked at and or suggestively touched me. "A heartache," I say and take one step towards him. He didn't seem to back up, I took this as an opportunity to take another step. "They have a label for this feeling?" He asked desperately clenching at his shirt. I could see the pain in his eyes, he hated this feeling. I take a slow calm breath and start walking towards him again.

       I get close enough to pull him in a hug. I lay my head on his chest feeling his arms wrap around me. I rub his back and I could feel his tense body start to relax. "I don't like this feeling Shoyo... why does everyone want you? I want you to myself." I hear Atsumu say and I close my eyes enjoying his embrace. "I know Tsumu... and I'm sorry people have you feeling like this... I want you to remember that I want you and no one else." I say and he tightens the hug at my words like he's frustrated.

          He placed his hand on the back of my head rubbing it softly, a light tint of red spreading across my cheeks. "I try to tell myself that, I tell myself all the time... but the feeling never goes away." As he spoke I started moving side to side, him following my movements. "Tsumu... you really love me this much?" I say and pull away from the hug looking up to him. He looks at me with a disappointed look with a slow nod. I grab his hands and lock my fingers in between his, he looked a little flustered from my action. "I think you feel this way because we aren't technically in a relationship.. we never made it official and your brain might be thinking anyone could take me away." As I'm speaking he looked at me with nothing other than pure focus.

            His focused expression changed to a thinking one, what was he thinking? "I have something planned for tomorrow... but I need to do this now...." Atsumu said and softly untangled our fingers. He placed both of his hands on my cheeks and pulled me into a deep kiss. It surprised me but I kissed back as he bit my lip softly, I couldn't help but not let him in. I could hear him whine and I smiled into the kiss. In return I bite his back, I could tell this caught him off guard but he gladly took the opportunity. After about a minute of making out, we both pulled away, we are both trying to catch our breath. "How you feel losing this time? Tsumu." I say in between my panting. His face was red, It was so adorable.

           He shakes his head and grabs my hands with that breathtaking smile I can never get enough of. "I don't mind... as long as it's you..." he said and then gave me a little kiss on my cheek. He pulled away, we both were blushing and I couldn't come up with words. "Shoyo Hinata..." Atsumu said taking a long pause after my name, his face was red.

"Will you be my boyfriend?"

I stand there shocked, this is what he wanted to do tomorrow? Did he want to confess to me? I start tearing up and through my blurred vision, I could see Atsumu's face get scared. Now I'm definitely crying, I pull him into the biggest hug I could pull off. He hugged back, I couldn't say anything I was just so happy. I pull away from the hug and look up towards Atsumu. I smiled at him with my tears still in my eyes, he smiled back. He wiped the tears on my face with his thumbs causing me to blush again. I grab both of his hands from my face, staring into his beautiful brown eyes.

"Yes... I will be your boyfriend."
