Chapter 3 -Time skip

2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade weren't all that important. Nothing special really happened other than Bokuto jumping on me almost every day, that was really the best part of my day. I've just gotten used to it at this point. I'm not really used to affection, my parents don't really give me a lot of it, it's really only Bokuto.

Anyway, fifth grade I decided to do something I honestly thought I'd never do in my life. Invite my friends over. It was only for my birthday, and I'll just admit it, I wasn't the one who decided to invite people , it was my Dad and partcially my mom, who said I could only invite two people, I didn't want to invite anyone, but I don't decide anything, since I'm a "child" according to what my mother says.

Of course I invited Bokuto, honestly it wouldn't even be a party without him, it'd just be awkward. I honestly didn't know who else to invite but then I remembered Konoha existed. Like I said a while ago, for his size he is very threatening, but I invited him anyway, we're still friends.

"GAashi :DD"

"Ye Bokuto-san?"

"I'm sorry but I couldn't find you anything for your birthday. 😔💔"

Bokuto looked a lot more sad then I'd thought, and over a present?? I honestly don't care if I get presents or not, to me it's not necessary unless it's something I need.

"Don't worry about it, it's-"

"But I DID quickly stop by the dollar store and get you this! Just lemme go find it in my bookbag-"

"Bokuto-san, it's fine you didn't have to get me anyth-"

"Here you goo!" He handed me a big bag of peppermints, the soft kind, my favorite.

"Oh- thank you Bokuto."

'Ooh nevermind, I'll only accept gifts when it's something I need, and basically anything from Bokuto, and peppermints, can't decline Bokuto's gift- I mean can't decline peppermints.😍
Wait- how did he know I liked peppermints- I never said anything about liking peppermints- and the specific kind too?! What the heck-'

"How did you know I liked soft peppermints-"

"Haha, I have my ways."

That sentence scared me, dear god please don't tell me he had been watching me through my windows, I'm praying he didn't do that-

Just as I was about to tell Bokuto thank you, I saw Konoha in the far distance. He looked annoyed, I have no idea why but I walked over to him to say Hi. Bokuto just sadly watched as I walked away, I kinda forgot about him and my main focus was on Konoha, I have a big problem with that.

"Hey, Konoha. Why do you look so annoyed?"

"Hi 'kaashi."

. . .

"So is Bokuto a real friend to you?"

'Dear god, I swear this is his 50th time asking me that. Please why can't I just be friends with people I want to be friends with? It's none of his business anyway.'

"Yea? More like a best friend really."

"Oh yea? So what happened to us being best friends?"

"Can't I have two best friends??"

"No. That's not how it works dummy."

'God I hate that stupid rule. Why can't I have two best friends?? It just make everything easier. God he's so jealous. I'd rather be best friends with Bokuto than him any day.

-Sigh- "Well then I'm sorry."

"Yea. . so hey I'm invited to your party right?"

'why did he just change the subject so quickly?! What the heck-'

"Yea?"

"Good. Anyways it looks like your 'bestie' is waiting for you, he looks pretty upset over there, cuz you just left him like that." Not really being a good 'bestie' are you?"

"Oh shoot-" I ignored that last bit he said, it's not like Konoha is a better friend anyway.

'I was so busy with Konoha I completely forgot about Bokuto- oh no-'

"Agaaashhii, why did you just walk away like thaaat? You left me here alone :((." Bokuto said with a very pitiful face.

"Bokuto San I'm so sorry, I just saw Konoha over there and then I started to focus on him and then-"

I then felt arms rap around me.

"It's fine :)). I'm not gonna get jealous just cause you're hanging out with someone else.

-kinda- he whispered.

"What was that-?"

"Nothing, just please don't leave me again like that." He said with a puppy dog face.

'God he's too cute-
I- wait no-DID I JUST-'

*akaashi.exe has stopped working*

"Agashi-?"
. . .
"OH MY GOD DID I BREAK YOU ZMDKKSK KASHI ANSWER ME. SOMEONE HELP I BROKE KASSHIIII!!"

"I-.. Bokuto-san please stop shaking me around I'm fine!"

I was starting to get nauseous he was shaking me way to hard.

"Oh- good your ok-" he pulled me into another hug.

'I can't take all this at once. God please can I just pass out now-'

I actually started blushing, which is rare for me, since I never have a reason to blush, but gosh I felt weird. It felt good,too good. I've never been interested in a relationship, I'm sure Bokuto has been in one, but I really haven't. Bokuto even told me he was so surprised I haven't, since I'm 'so pretty' I did not know what to say or think when he told me that, I just wanted to pass away, like basically any time he compliments me- God I'm pathetic.

Konoha just watched in disgust, then walked away. Bokuto hugged me for a good 5 minutes...God he's so clingy, but I'm not really that mad about it. . . I kinda like it.

((HAHA I FINALLY GOT TO THE GOOD STUFF IM PROBABLY GONNA BE STAYING UP SUPER LATE CONTINUING THIS BUT LIKE WHO CARES MSDKLSK HAHAHAHA WHO NEEDS SLEEP????!!!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩))
