Overnight Encounters {Bokuto x Black Fem Reader}

Chapter 5

In other cases, you're able to avoid that embarrassment, the embarrassment of being proved wrong. You can run away from that moment, you can ignore it, you can forget it. But in your case... you couldn't escape it tonight.

No matter how far you wanted to run from that moment, you had no chance. Your dreams wouldn't let you escape, but even though a part of you hated that, another part didn't care. Another part of you was willing to swallow down your pride because.... you would get to see him again..

❖❖

You and Bo sat in a comfortable silence before you asked,

"Sooo, you played against Karasuno?"

"Yea and lost", Bokuto rolled his eyes in frustration.

"You still did good though"

"You're just saying that, you know I did bad"

"Maybe... but you never gave up", you admired as he looked at you curiously.

"You weren't your best, but you never got up and left the game. Even though you probably said you wanted to... I know you wouldn't mean it. You love volleyball and even if you were bad at it, you'd want to keep playing. And you would never give up on your team... it isn't just you out there, Bokuto.", you smirked at him.

"You know just what to say, don't you?", Bokuto teased.

"Maybe", you teased back, before a short silence took over...

❖❖

"Thank you, Y/n"

"Thank you for giving me more credit than I deserve.. and making me feel like I'm something, when I feel like I'm nothing. You always seemed to do that.", Bokuto said in appreciation, with a warm smile.

"You know just what to say, don't you?", you softly smiled, giving Bokuto a slight laugh as you mocked him. And then another comfortable silence over took you both.

❖❖

"So.. you got cute just for me, huh?", Bokuto said, breaking the silence and teasing you by bumping into your arm.

"Are you trying to bring back the mood?", you smirked as you raised your eyebrow.

"I'll take that as a yes", Bokuto smiled as he turned away from you.

"Umm no, I just wanted to look a little different today. I can't change what I want to wear??", you turned to him, almost offended.

"No, but it can't be a coincidence that you changed it up, the day after you met me", he turned to you, staring deep into your eyes, curious.

"Well maybe it was because I found out that millions of people in your world, would be watching me look like a bum", you turned away from him, looking ahead.

"Hey, if you say so, I'm just repeating what your best friend said", he said as held his hands up in surrender.

"But it would've been nice to know that you did", he sighed as he slowly dropped his hands and looked forward at the sunset before him.

For a minute, you were thrown off. 'Did he actually want you to get cute for him? But why would he want that? Does he-... No'. That's what you thought in that moment. It brought you back to the same overthinking you had just overcame, not too long ago. Could the reason you were both here be because you both had such strong feelings for each other? What would this mean for you guys? Would you just be friends or maybe more?
