Fifty Bucks

Day four had finally rolled around. It was the same routine as usual. They meet in the lobby, hop on the bus to the gym, practice for a few hours, get back onto the bus, go back to the hotel, so on and so forth. The only thing that varied during all of their sessions was the duration. Forty entire minutes were added to their training time. By the time their coaches came onto the court to bring them back to the hotel, they were all spread around the gym. Either lying on the floor or sitting on benches on the verge of passing out. They had to try tons of different ways to get them onto the bus. The entire time they were sitting on the bus waiting for them to drive off, Komori took multiple small peaks over at Suna who was sitting in the seat diagonal from them.

When they arrived they immediately went to take their showers before heading down for dinner. Some people almost fell asleep in the shower if it wasn't for their roommates banging on the bathroom door. This time, Suna didn't call Komori during that little window so he just assumed that he had finally fallen asleep. It was bound to happen one of these days. He instead texted Atsumu to meet them at their room since he and Sakusa had taken pretty quick showers. Atsumu happily agreed and they were just subjected to waiting.

Atsumu, Osamu, Suna, Akagi, and Ginjima arrived at their door shortly after Komori had texted them. The elevator ride down and the walk to the dining room was all normal until Suna had been pulled aside by Komori, separating them from the rest of the group as they went to eat.

"Toya?" Suna looked at the top of Komori's head. He was looking at the ground while he still had a tight grip on his wrist.

"Will you be my boyfriend?" Komori quickly said as he simultaneously looked Suna in the eyes. They stared at each other before they were kissing for the second time in the past two days. Suna broke the kiss and smiled softly at him.

"Did you think I would say no?"

Komori just shrugged, he was blushing and smiling widely. "I don't know. Not sure what to expect from you."

"Let's go eat," Suna said as he wrapped an arm around his new boyfriend's shoulders and walked into the dining room with him.

The entire group looked at them with wide eyes as they walked over to the table. Their jaws were metaphorically on the floor. It was silent as everyone looked at the pair with expectant eyes. The tension rose as Suna turned to Atsumu.

"I'll cash app the money to you or something."

"So you two got together, and not a soul was around to see it?" Atsumu crossed his arms. "That's bullshit."

"For once I agree with Tsumu." Sakusa let out a heavy sigh. The aforementioned boy next to him gave him a look of offense at the statement. "All that waiting just to not witness it."

The rest of dinner time was spent reminding them of all the embarrassing stuff they had witnessed over the time of waiting for them to get together. Teasing them about becoming one of those clingy couples, and other stuff. It eventually transferred over to the normal conversations they usually had during meal times. Volleyball, social media, dirt on Suna's phone. Atsumu tried to delete some embarrassing things about him, but he couldn't get his hand on it.

Slowly, everyone began to leave the table. First, it was Osamu who was too full to stay awake any longer. He also said his roommate, Kozaku had texted him asking where he was. Next, Akagi and Ginjima stood up to go. Akagi mentioned something about going to bed moderately early. They were most likely going to practice for an entire hour if the normal pattern was going to go down.

Finally, Atsumu and Sakusa got up to make their way to bed. Atsumu said he wanted to sleep in Sakusa's room so they could 'be closer', but they all knew it was just because he wanted Suna and Komori to spend more time together since he's been anticipating this moment for forever. They walked out of the dining room with a wave, leaving the new couple alone together. They looked at each other and laughed before leaving for themselves.

The walk to the elevator, the ride, and the walk to the room had Komori's heart racing. It was pretty obvious they were going to end up sleeping in the same bed. He already had trouble falling asleep when it happened when they were just friends. He looked up at Suna with a slightly pink face. He wasn't paying attention because he was in the middle of opening the door. Komori just admired his godly side profile before they entered the room. As the door closed behind them, it started to feel more suffocating. The darkness of the room paired with the sensation of Suna grabbing his hand, leading him to the bed, made Komori's mind hazy.

"Do you want to borrow one of my shirts?"

"Huh? What?" Komori shook his head to realize that he was now sitting on Suna's bed. Said boy was looking at him from where he was kneeling on the floor by his bag, looking for pajamas. "Sure, that's fine." He finally answered the previous question after a beat of silence.

They changed and climbed into the small twin bed together. It was a tight fit, but it was just right as they pressed their chests together, legs tangled under the covers. Suna's arm was around Komori's waist while his hands were resting on Suna's chest, tracing small shapes.

"I can't believe we're dating," Komori mumbled, a little tired. But he was snapped wide awake when Suna brushed some hair out of his face.

"I know right?" He chuckled. "It's kind of unbelievable."

They looked into each other's eyes. Royal blue meeting an olive color. Their lids slowly closed as they leaned forward, connecting their lips once more. Just like their first, the movements of the kiss came naturally. They pulled away and smiled at each other lovingly.
