A couple days had passed and it was already Wednesday morning. Right now I'm walking to school with Kuroo. He was talking a lot, which I didnt really mind. I hummed occasionally or nodded my head so he knew I was listening.
"Hey," Kuroo suddenly says, "Are you excited about today?"
I look at him a little confused.
"What's happening today?" I ask, genuinely unaware. Kuroo laughs at me.
"We're hanging out with Akaashi and Bokuto today!" He reminds me, slinging an arm over my shoulder.
"Oh yeah, I wouldnt say I'm excited, but I am looking forward to it," I reply, nonchalantly.
We continue walking, Kuroo still talking as if the whole world was focused on him. It was entertaining, really. I enjoyed his presence near me.
The school day went by slowly, but it wasnt boring. To be completely honest, the day was slow because I was so worked up about seeing Bokuto. Now that I've actually embraced and acknowledged my feelings for him, I became more nervous about how I was supposed to act around him.
What if I embarrassed myself? What's worse than that is if I'm cold to him because I'm nervous. I really don't want him to think I hate him.
The end of the day nears and I can see Kuroo waiting near my classroom door. His last period is gym so he was probably let out early. The bell rings and I immediately swing my bag over my shoulder and walk out of the classroom.
"Well aren't you in a rush," Kuroo teases.
"I just wanna get out of this shit hole."
"Hey hey, calm down Kyanma. Or is it because you're excited to see Bokuto~" He wiggles his eyebrows.
"Shut up, let's just go," I reply with a huff.
"Okay okay."
~ Time skip to at the park ~
We arrived at the park about 15-20 minutes early. I was somewhat antsy.
"Hey Kuroo?" I say as I swing my legs up to sit Indian style on the bench. He looks at me and hums.
"Don't let me be too rude to Bokuto please... Or Akaashi. I care about them a lot and don't want to seem like an asshole because I'm feeling awkward."
He smiles and swings an arm around my shoulder.
"Sure thing Kenma," He responds.
After a minute of silence I pull out my phone to find some sort of game to play, Kuroo taking his out to probably scroll through social media. It was a comfortable silence. It was probably another minute before I heard someone running towards us.
Bokuto wrapped me and Kuroo into a hug, beaming brightly.
Oh my gosh, he's so beautiful, I think to myself.
"HEY GUYS! I missed you so much!" He exclames, clearly excited.
Akaashi is trailing behind him, offering us both a timid smile. I smile back, as does Kuroo. We both turn back to Bokuto as he pulls back.
"We missed you too Bokuto!" Kuroo replies.
I nod slightly, embarrassed to admit how much I actually did miss him. Bokuto looks at me, and I think I noticed his smile falter before it's bright again and he looks at Kuroo.
Akaashi comes to sit with me on the bench as Kuroo gets up and starts to walk around the park with Bokuto. We watch them walk around. Akaashi and I don't say much. Only occasionally exchanging pleasantries.
"You're staring," He says after a moment of silence.
"W-what?" I respond.
"At Bokuto, you're staring."
I blink at him, not knowing what to say.
"It's okay though," he continues, "I'm staring too."
"At Bokuto!?" I ask, worried. Now that I think about it, Bokuto and Akaashi probably have feelings for each other. They do spend so much time together that I wouldn't be surprised.
"No," Akaashi knocked me out of my over thinking, "I'm staring at Kuroo, you're staring at Bokuto. How the hell did we fall for these bozos." He laughs a little. I laugh too.
"I'm not sure, but I do know we fell hard," I respond, still chuckling. He nods.
"Definitely, we're down bad."
Bokuto and Kuroo walk back around to us. My face heats up as Bokuto smiles warmly.
That smile is probably gonna kill me.
I turn my head away quickly, not wanting him to see my face so red. I can't believe that I'm this in love with him. It's so bad that I can't even look at him without turning into mush.
Bokuto's POV
I feel like Kenma is avoiding me. I'm not sure why exactly, but I just feel like he doesn't want to be around me right now.
"Hey, Akaashi, why don't you go walk around with Kuroo," I wink at him, aware of his feelings for the taller boy.
He blushes and nods, getting up and heading over to Kuroo. I watch them walk away and I sit next to Kenma. I'm not sure why but I have a very strong feeling that I want to protect him and be by his side.
"Kenmaaa~" I draw out his name teasingly.
I can see his face glow and it causes me to blush too for some reason.
He looks so cute... Wait what!?
I shake my head and look back at Kenma.
"Do you not like me Kenma?" I ask genuinely.
"What? Why would you think that! I don't dislike you, I actually like you a lot!" He blurts. I smile down at him.
"Perfect! Cuz I wouldn't want you to dislike me."
He smiles a little, face still red. We sit quietly together, me swinging my legs. I notice that Kenma yawns and I feel him lean onto my arm. I beam down at him, pushing the hair out of his face.
"Hey, before you clonk out, I have a question," I whisper to him, knowing he's tired. He hums and looks up at me, "Would you maybe wanna hang out just the two of us at some point?"
It takes him a minute to respond but when he does he looks me in the eyes happily.
"Yeah, that would be great. Do you maybe wanna come over tonight? It's late anyways and my parents wouldn't mind."
I nod and swing my arm around him, pulling him closer so he can nap nicely. I see Kuroo laugh and give me a thumbs up from across the park, I'm not sure why though. I felt nice holding Kenma in my arms.
I hope I can hold him like this a lot.
I sigh and let my fingers run through his hair as I watch the sun go down.
