Win The Heart Of Omega

CHAPTER 7 - SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS

Akaashi's POV

3 days passed since the first day those alphas came here to impress me. I can say, for an omega who definitely wants to mate, they are pretty impressive, but I'm a whole different story.

I have to go out with Bokuto tonight, since I definitely spent more time with Omi the whole day. I am so not wanting to go to the mall with him again, we almost got caught.

"Hey, Kuroo called earlier, he's asking how have you been doing?" Eita asked as soon as he stepped into my room.

"Tell him everything is alright, there's not much to worry. Besides, He's got Kenma to worry about." I replied.

He nodded at me and sat by the stool next to my bed. I walked up to my closet and picked out some clothes for me to wear tonight.

"I thought you won't go out with any of them if it's already past 19:00?" Eita turned to look at me as he asked.

"I wanna go out tonight. Since I spent the whole day with Omi, I asked Bokuto to come with." I answered.

"Seems fair to me." He returned his gaze on his phone. "Almost forgot. Here. Omi wants you to have it." He continued as he handed me an envelope.

"Another love letter?" I've been getting a lot of these from Omi. Just him putting up random pictures of me when I hang out with him and some of his thoughts about it.

"He seems to put a lot of effort to have you impressed. You have been showing less disgusted face than the first time you received letters from him, are you starting to get impressed?"

"No. What's the point of being disgusted over something you will get for the next few days?"

"I don't believe you. Come on, you can tell me anything!"

I rolled my eyes on him and went straight to the bathroom to wash myself up.

Kuroo's POV

"So, how's it going there?" Oikawa asked as I returned to the room.

"Same answers. They're fine and everything is going smoothly, nothing to worry about." I responded. "Why are you touching Kenma's belly?"

"What? Are you jealous?" Kenma turned to me.

"No, just asking." I softly replied.

"Kenma felt those tiny kicks earlier, and told me I can feel it for myself. It just brings me back to the times when Mirai's still in me." Oikawa opened up. "Well, I'll leave you two now to get some rest. I'll head out to and take this girl to slumber." He continued and immediately left the room.

"Keiji doing fine?" Kenma said as I lie down beside him.

"He's perfectly fine. I heard from Semi that Keiji is taking things smoothly." I assured him.

He lies down and snuggled up in my arms. Cute. I tightened my embrace on him, but in a way that won't hurt him or squeeze him too much.

Akaashi's POV

"So, why did you invite me here again?" Bokuto opened up as we sat on a nearby park bench.

"Just to make things fair between you and Omi." I responded.

"You could've done this tomorrow and just rest tonight."

"I'm not really tired, and I also wanted to go out for a bit in this cold night."

A moment of silence came as we both sat there, silently staring into the night sky.

"Tell me, if it's okay, why aren't you interested in this offer?" Bokuto opened up again. I stared at him but his eyes seems to be locked into space.

"I don't want to be a part of being a mafia. I just wanted to live normally." I responded with my eyes looking down.

I heard him sigh. "Me too. I'm supposed to run away from my family, but when they knew about it, they planned this offer. They told me if I run away, I'll put myself in trouble as well as everybody involved in our family. I just have to sacrifice." It's a hurtful statement but he still smiled.

"I didn't knew Tetsurou doesn't like being the next inheritant of our father's job. When he told me after I take over, he's probably gonna take Kenma to a safer place and live his dream of a sociable life. The same dream I wanted but I have to give it up for him and his future family." I felt warm tears filling up my eyes as I finished saying my words.

I was about to rub it off with my sleeves until he held my wrist turning me into his direction. I felt his warm hands as he caressed both my cheeks and wipes my tears off with his thumbs gently. He stared at me for a few seconds as he did so.

"Looking at you, I see the face of a person. A face of a person who deserves the whole world." He smiled.

His smile... it's so calming. He pulled me into a hug, and I can smell his scent of peppermint and roses. We stayed like that for a few minutes, watching the night sky together. I was so lost in my thoughts that I was surprised seeing Iwaizumi standing in front of us as he cleared his throat.

"Did something happen? Why are you crying?" He asked me, his expressions are nothing but worries.

"It's nothing." I replied.

"You sure?"

"Yeah, I'm sure. I think we should head back, it's getting late and I'm feeling pretty tired too."

We stood up from the bench and started to walk our way back to the car with Iwaizumi following close behind us. The parking lot was a bit far from the park but the walk won't be too tiring until we get there. As I was looking down at my steps, I felt Bokuto's hand reached for mine, and intertwined with my fingers.

I looked at him with a surprised face, he looked at me as well, he's brightly smiling. I didn't took my hands off, we kept it on until we got into the car.

As soon as we reached home, he already said his goodnight and farewells to me at the foyer, and made his way to his designated room.

"Are you both dating already?" Iwaizumi suddenly asked from behind.

"No! What are you talking about?" I exclaimed at him.

"What's with the loud voice, idiot? I was just asking. If you're not dating, what's with that hugs and holding hands earlier?"

"That was nothing. He just wants to comfort me, nothing more."

"Yeah, what about you crying earlier? Did he harm you?"

"Nothing close to that. Just overthinked."

After that I told Iwaizumi to rest as well and rushed my way to my room. I flopped into the bed as I got in. What's with that sudden feeling? Why is my heart throbbing when he held my hands like that? This is all just my father's game, I shouldn't lose to it, but why is this happening all of a sudden?
