Falling For My Best Friend (A BokuAka Story)

Chapter 1

"You promised me you'd never break my heart. Was it all just a damn lie?"

Akaashi woke up to the sound of his alarm clock ringing.

He jumped out of bed and did the basics, make his bed, take a shower, brush his teeth, doing something he would like any other day.

It was only different when he arrived at school. He waited at the gate for him as usual.

Now, if you don't know who him is referring to, it's the one and only, Koutaro Bokuto.

Akaashi stood by the schools' gate for a while, and not to his surprise, Bokuto was late yet again.

He smiled to himself as he was used to this. Bokuto would normally get up late and rush to school almost every morning.

Akaashi waited and waited. After a while, he finally arrived.

Running towards school, with a piece of bread in his mouth, was Bokuto. His hair looked a bit out of shape.

"Good morning Boku-"

"AKAASHI! YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED!" Bokuto cut him off before he could even greet the senior.

"I don't know what happened, but I'm guessing it's something great, Bokuto," the younger man replied.

"It is great! Amazing, actually. You see, I'm finally dating somebody!" Bokuto mentioned.

Akaashi looked at Bokuto, not fully understanding what he just told him.

"You're dating somebody? Do I know her?"

"Um, well about that, I'm dating a he," Bokuto said, trying not to freak Akaashi out.

Akaashi looked at Bokuto again, in confusion.

"Do I know he- him?" He asked, trying to not sound rude. He always thought that Bokuto was straight, but he could deal with it.

"Er, actually, you do. It's-"

Bokuto stopped mid-sentence as the first bell started to ring.
"I guess I can tell you later, Akaashi, sorry! I don't want to be late for my History class. Bye!" Bokuto waved with a smile, running into the school compound, only to hit a lamppost that was in the way.

"Ouch," Akaashi heard Bokuto mutter.

"Well that was rather weird.." Akaashi whispered in between his breaths, still thinking about the fact that Bokuto was taken.

Don't get the wrong idea, Akaashi was happy for Bokuto. Bokuto always wanted someone to be there for him, someone for him to love and be loved by, but he still can't understand that weird feeling in his chest.

But he eventually managed to shake that thought off and walked to his first class.

During lunch, Akaashi and Bokuto sat on the bench in peace.

Well, by peace it means Bokuto being enthusiastic and Akaashi trying to calm him down if he got out of hand.
