In Three Months' Time (Haikyuu)

X: Signatures

Atsumu and Kiyoomi arrived at the airport with Atsumu still half asleep. Kiyoomi smiles when he sees Atsumu rub his eyes and yawn, "what do you want to eat?"

Atsumu looks around, looking for a close place to eat, but he sighs when he doesn't see one. He was too tired from the flight to go somewhere for food, "I'm not that hungry. I'm just want to rest,"

Kiyoomi's eyebrows furrow into a frown. Atsumu stares at him; maybe he was hungry. Atsumu was about to ask if he wanted to eat, but before he could even open his mouth, Kiyoomi spoke, "okay,"

Atsumu sighs and hails for a taxi. Kiyoomi looked like he wanted to say something, but Atsumu was too tired to ask him what it was. If he had something to say, then he'll tell Atsumu about it. Atsumu patiently waited for Kiyoomi to say something to him, and when he spoke, Atsumu didn't expect what he said.

"Is it okay to hold your hand?" Kiyoomi was staring at his hand as he asks, making Atsumu furrow his brow. He slowly nods, "it's fine,"

Is that all he wanted to say?

Atsumu couldn't help but feel weirded out with how Kiyoomi was acting, but at the same time, he was kind of used to it. It must be because of how Kiyoomi had been acting when they were in Nara. So, he gently shakes his head and ignores the way Kiyoomi played with his fingers.

The taxi stops in front of their apartment, and Kiyoomi paid for it. Atsumu didn't have the energy to argue with him, so he lets him do whatever he wanted. They took the elevator to their floor with Kiyoomi still holding his hand. It was odd to feel conscious about the way Kiyoomi held onto his hand all the way to their floor, but Atsumu pushes down the uncomfortable feeling.

Atsumu opens the door, and only then did Kiyoomi let go of his hand. Though it was awkward to have Kiyoomi's hand hold his, he still felt a quick disappointment wash over him when he couldn't feel the warmth of his touch anymore.

"Do you want me to cook for you?" Atsumu shakes his head, "it's fine. I want to sleep,"

Kiyoomi stares at him, making Atsumu stare back. Atsumu raises his brow as a sign for Kiyoomi to speak, but all Kiyoomi said was, "alright, just tell me if you need anything,"

Atsumu contemplated if he should ask. It bothered him that Kiyoomi would stare at him like he wanted to say something, but instead of saying it, he says something different. Atsumu decides to nod and leave without saying anything.

Atsumu placed his bag on the floor before letting himself plop on the bed. He stares at the ceiling for a while. He couldn't stop thinking about the way Kiyoomi stared at him. It feels like he should ask him, but Atsumu wanted Kiyoomi to tell him on his own.

"Was I too harsh last night?" Atsumu asks himself as he thinks about what he said, "should I apologize?"

Atsumu quickly shakes his head after realizing that he didn't have anything to apologize for, "no,"

A groan escapes Atsumu's lips after talking to himself. He stares at the ceiling for a few more minutes before closing his eyes. Don't think about it. He repeats to himself until he drifts off to sleep.

Atsumu wakes up after a while and checks on his phone. He saw that it was already past lunch but instead of going to the kitchen to eat, he attempted to go back to sleep, but his stomach grumbled. He groans and forces himself to sit up, thinking of what he should cook. But when he walked out of his room, he smells the sweet aroma of food, making his stomach grumble even more so, quickly walked into the kitchen and stood beside Kiyoomi.

"What are you cooking?" Atsumu felt Kiyoomi jolt and turn to him with his hand on his chest, "Atsumu, I always tell you not to do that when I'm cooking,"
