"Why are you ignoring me?" Akaashi's stern and usual expressionless face still stood upon his face but softened at the slightest. I'm not...I'm not avoiding you." There was a moment of silence. A moment of thought." Akaaashiiii! StOp LyInG!" Akaashi's eyes laid in surprise. That was far from what he expected. All though, everything was unexpected with Bokuto. Bokuto snorted a short laugh. Akaashi couldn't help but. As soon as he realized he'd start laughing he quickly covered his mouth continued to laugh and pretend to scratch his cheek. Bokuto saw right through it, though. Bokuto was sharp to notice and as quickly as Akaashi covered his hand, he quickly grabbed it and with a strong grasp and brought it back down to his side. Akaashi looked in confusion.

"Don't cover that."

Deja vu.

"Cover what?" 

Deja vu

"Your smile."

deja vu.

"Why it isn't anything spe-"

"I barely ever see it."

Deja vu.

Deja vu why? Oh, right. This moment...one year ago...the same exact words played out again. The same conversation. Akaashi's same smile.

                                                *Flashback*

"Sh...ut up." A stronger laugh broke out of Bokuto, rattling his body as he lay down in the hospital bed." I look...like shit, I know."

" You don't. You don't look like shit." He tried to hide his grin with his hand, but it was still visible from the gaps between his fingers.

Bokuto reached a hand out, aimlessly trying to swat Akaashi's own hand away. He tried to aim for it at the very least but found it difficult to. Still, he continued.

" Don't cover that." 

"cover what?"

"Your smile."

"Why it isn't anything spe-"

"I barely ever see it." Bokuto's fingers touched at Akaashi's knuckles. That was enough for Akaashi to remove his hand from his mouth slowly, moving it to rest it over his chin. he smiled down at him.

                                               * End of flashback*


Akaashi removed his hand from his side and the smile lasted another second before it gradually dropped." So...Does this mean you'll stop avoiding me?" Bokuto tilted his head in question." I never started." Bokuto squinted his eyes questionably." Riiiight. Well, start coming to practice more! Oh! And can you toss a few sets for me after school?" Bokuto's golden iridescent eyes stared into Akaashi's eyes hopefully, hoping he'd say yes. Bokuto would get to practice with Akaashi some more, but also get to spend more time with him. Alone. 

Akaashi needed to go home and study. He heard his teacher loud and clear but then again, how could he say no to Bokuto? He never could. Those Golden eyes. The ones that Akaashi always tried to get a glimpse of every now and then." Yes. Sure" He tried to reject Bokuto but ended up saying yes?

Idiot. I'm such a god damn idiot.

"Thanks, Akaashi!" Bokuto's eyes beamed as Akaashi's heart skipped a beat. He admired when his eyes beamed like that, just like in his past life. 

Bokuto took his hand off of akaashi's from when he'd asked him to not cover his smile. He had only now just realized that he kept his hand on Akaashi's. 

Akaashi tried not to seem disappointed Bokuto slipped his hand off his own. Akaashi bit his lip. Despite that, he couldn't help himself flush bright pink. Bokuto also flushed like a tomato. for some reason, Bokuto longed to hold Akaashi's hand once more but he brushed it aside." Alright well-" Before Bokuto could finish the bell rang, they had to attend the last class of the day." Got to get to class. See you after school, yeah!?" Bokuto ran off in the opposite direction, his back to Akaashi."Wait, Bokuto! BOKUTO! BOKUTO, WAIT!" Akaashi yelled out to Bokuto. Bokuto turned back to face Akaashi and ran back." Yeah, Kashi?" Akashi chuckled lightly." Bokuto, we have our last lesson together. And it's this way." Akaashi pulled Bokuto's arm to the class and dragged him into the class and to two empty desks and they both sat down together right as the teacher walked in and began the class.

After class, Bokuto, and Akaashi walked-well, Akaashi walked and Bokuto ran to the gym for volleyball practice. Little did they know this practice would change their lives forever. But for better or worse?
