Inevitably Yours - Bokuto x Reader

Realizations

The training camp building housed many student teams along their athletic journey to making it to nationals. This evening was its first adventure in witnessing a intimate exchange between two unlikely individuals. If walls could speak they would regale you with an almost secret meeting within the corridor held between the set of stairs. The landing, a small platform that allowed the staircase to change direction. Up and down, perhaps this dimly lit landing would serve as not only meeting point but a realization point.

You: Sure Kou-kun, I'll meet you by the stairs.

Bokuto's hands fidgeted with his phone as he watched and waited in the hallway before the entrance of the corridor waiting to hear footsteps come down the a stairs.  

It's simple...

                                                               off the court.

He blew a puff of air to lightly lift his fringe from his forehead. Careful not to mess up his carefully planned hair style.

It's simple...

                                                   she's going to see me differently. 

He tugged on his shirt nervously.

It's simple... 

                                                                  this seems off.

He heard light cautious footsteps descending as he simultaneously put his phone away in his pocket. Peering from below, the dim light created a hazy spotlight on you and all he could think was...

simple...

                                                         she's waiting for me.

 Knowing you were waiting on the landing for him and only him. Created a sudden jolt of energy through his body. Quickly, it rushed though him as he jogged up the stairs to meet you.  

                                                   simply...no going back now.

 With the heat patches in hand you cautiously walked down the dimly lit hall and partway down the stairs to the landing and waited.

"YN."  A shadowy figure from below stairs called. 

The lack of lighting in the stairwell made you squint as you realized the outline of the shadowy figure looked nothing like who you were supposed to meet.  It definitely didn't help that they rushed toward you. 

Your heart sped into a panic backing away instantly out of fear you turned to bolt, tripping over your feet. Just before you awkwardly collided with the stairs you made impact with something or rather someone more agreeable.

Registering the familiar muscular arms around you and the fresh scent of men's antiperspirant. You looked up at the friendly round gold eyes slipping past a curtain of mostly white and grey bangs.

"Kou?"

Grasping that their was no intimidate danger your heart rate slowed as you slightly melted into him placing your head on his chest. Hearing the continuous beating of his heart. 

"Are you okay?" His concerned voice hummed through his chest.

"Yeah, you just scared me."  You mumbled as you pulled away to pick up the heat patch that  was on the floor.
