"Who knew you would be so good at Mario Kart, Akaashi..." Bokuto sighed, putting down his controller.

The two had already played at least ten rounds of Mario Kart, Akaashi winning eight of the games.

Akaashi had let Bokuto win the other two games because he knew that if Bokuto didn't beat him a few times, he might accidentally make him feel upset.

"Well... I play sometimes. And I have a friend who's really good at games too, so he teaches me how to play, I guess." Akaashi replied, getting up to grab a drink.

"Hmm, your friend sounds cool!" Bokuto said, smiling.

"He is. He goes to Nekoma and plays as setter too, you know. His name is Kozume Kenma."

"Oh! Really? That's really cool! I know someone from Nekoma too! He's a rooster head named Kuroo."

"Rooster? What a description." Akaashi replied, laughing slightly. "Kozume is like a... cat, I guess."

Bokuto stood up too, glancing at the clock. "Hey, what time do your parents come home? I don't wanna impose too much."

After drinking a sip of water, Akaashi said, "They're usually back quite late. Maybe at 6-ish? I think. They're bringing dinner home though."

Suddenly, Bokuto grabbed Akaashi excitedly, exclaiming, "Hey! I just got a really good idea! Do you wanna do karaoke?"

"Wha- now? Uhm. Sure? I'll prepare the TV, I guess." Akaashi replied, a little confused but very amused by Bokuto's sudden enthusiasm.

"Be prepared to be wowed by my singing skills, Kaashi!" Bokuto announced proudly, grabbing a marker which acted as a microphone.

He quickly selected a song and its music started blasting from the speakers of Akaashi's television.

"Really, Bokuto-san? Perfect by Ed Sheeran is a little overplayed. It's nice though." Akaashi said, smiling.

Bokuto grinned at Akaashi, starting to sing...

I found a love for me...

Oh. Damn. That voice. It's hot. Akaashi thought, listening to the starting. Will I be able to last through this without screaming? I wonder.

Without knowing it, the corners of his mouth started turning up. His voice is just so nice...

Oh darling, just dive right in and follow my lead
Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet
Oh, I never knew you were the someone waiting for me...

Bokuto then started swaying slowly, as if dancing to the song. He looks... so perfect. Akaashi thought to himself, cheeks turning a little red.

'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowing what it was
I will not give you up this time
But darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own
And in your eyes, you're holding mine

Then, Bokuto suddenly pulled Akaashi up, holding their hands together. Wha- what is he doing- Akaashi thought, blushing furiously.

They started dancing together, Akaashi being pulled along by Bokuto, both of them a little flustered and red. Bokuto continued to sing...

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms

As he sung that line, the two danced together, hand in hand.

Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favourite song
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight
