FOREIGN EXCHANGE

lost in translation

i ended up buying the matching shoes, and then we went around the entire mall looking for outfits that wouldn't get kageyama hate crimed in the hallway.

outfits we bought him:

we also decided on buying him new vans and another pair of black jordan's to match any outfit.

now we were taking a break sitting in the food court.
kai had went to stand in line for a smoothie so we were left alone at the table.

"are you having fun"? i asked.
he smiled. "a lot of fun with you guys". he said.
that's good.
"are you excited for school tomorrow"? i asked.
his face dropped a little.
i could tell he was nervous.
"a lot of new people.. hoping they aren't rude to me". he said back.

"i'll beat them up for you". i said back holding up my fist and laughing.
he smiled harder.
"i fight good enough". he replied.
i raised an eyebrow. "oh really?"

"when you are... nationally ranked.. people try to get in your way.. i fight them". he grinned.
"do you win"? i questioned.
he used his hand to push his hair back and then slouched in his chair.
"i always win". he smirked.

is it hot in here?

"you're pretty interesting". i responded checking him out one last time before kai sat down at the table.
"where are we going after this"? Kai asked immediately.

"i was thinking the home goods store, to pick up some things for his room".
kai nodded. "mkay". he started slurping his smoothie.

i looked at kageyama who was now staring across the food court at something else.
his hair fell in his face and his lips gleamed under the light like an anime character.
and his eyes... i just loved the way they looked when he was calm.
🌌🌁🌉🌃🏙🎑🗾🌆🌇🎆🎇🌠🌄🌅🏞

after a long ass day of shopping the three of us returned to my house.
we threw all the bags down on the floor as we fell into the couch for support.
we were all tired.

kai collected the things he had bought and then told us he needed to try on his outfits to see what he would wear for the first day of school.

senior year had approached us quickly, but we weren't gonna let it be like all the other years where we didn't get a chance to SHINE.
...
who am i kidding i wore justice in the 9th grade.

he said goodbye and just like that me and kageyama went to our rooms to try out our new things.

in my room:
even though i had said i wasn't gonna buy anything.
somehow i ended up with a matching outfit to every single one of kageyama's outfits.

he had asked if we could match every time.
and i didn't have the heart to say no- nor did i want to. people seeing me at school matching with some hot exchange boy would totally boost my popularity.

i layed down on my bed and spread my limbs.
tomorrow might actually be kind of fun considering i have kageyama with me.

2 hours later~
it was nearly 10 and id forgotten to ask kageyama if he needed or wanted anything for a while.
might as well do it now.

i got out of bed and quietly approached his room.
i heard him on the phone- so i hesitated to knock and interrupt him.
he was speaking japanese and it was really fast.

hmmm.... no- hmm..i couldn't... i coulllld... no..
i walked away from the door but then turned right back around and took out my phone.
opening google translate to see what he was talking about.
he was laughing on the phone a lot so i really wanted to know what he was saying.
when it popped up- my jaw dropped.

...
he thinks i'm, cute? And he... wants to smash. alright so basically my mother has granted me with the gift of a heart attack. because seeing this before my eyes is sure to push me closer to death.

i was shocked. flattered... but shocked.
obviously he's a teenage boy the same way i'm a teenage girl, and i knew our language barrier was the only thing containing his personality. BUT- i didn't know just how boyish he was.

i'm just going to go back to my room and leave him with his conversation. whoever he's talking to must be telling him to hurry up and pipe.

when i sprawled back across my bed and closed my eyes. all i could think about was what he said.
"she's cute". "i don't know if she will let me fuck her". he also said i don't have to speak japanese so- i guess that's a plus cause i don't.

i took a screenshot of the google page and sent it to kai with the caption "look what i caught him saying".

kai responded in an instant:
"mhm, tell me when you're busy fucking him".

i smiled at my phone and turned it off.
i can't be so dirty minded.
actions and words are completely different things.

...

does kageyama really like me?😏
