chapter twenty seven: two toned carnation

After you and Atsumu sit down on the couch where he's been sleeping for the past three weeks, you explain to him the truth about where you went. You tell him you were going to meet up with Oikawa, but after you overheard his conversation with Ushijima, you bailed and went to Rhodes. You then continue to explain why you went to Daisho's hideout and met up with Kuroko after.

He listens quietly as you explain yourself before coming up with a response. "Okay," he begins slowly, thinking carefully about what he says before he says it, "Thank you for telling me. I was really worried about you. I had a feeling you might have gone out with him and I didn't want you to get hurt. But what do we do now?"

"Celebrate while we wait to get our revenge?" you grin. "I know I'm too late for dinner, so wanna hit the bar instead? Drinks on you?"

"Oh, drinks on me, huh?" he laughs.

"Well I did just give every last penny I own to save our lives," you remind him.

"Alright then. I'd say all of this is worth celebrating. I'm in."

About an hour after you and Atsumu arrived at the bar, the two of you are absolutely wasted. Drinks flowed continuously the whole time until your conversations are interrupted by a girl tapping Atsumu's shoulder from behind. She obviously didn't notice the two of you talking at first, but makes her opinion of Atsumu perfectly clear while she hits on him even after she sees you watching her.

"I'm very flattered," he chuckles awkwardly, obviously not sure what he should say to this girl who's making her feelings well known to everyone in the entire bar, "but I'm not the guy you're looking for. I'm afraid I couldn't commit to anything you're trying to find."

"Well of course not," the girl giggles as she somehow gets even closer to Atsumu before whispering loudly in his ear. "Not in front of your girlfriend, that is. She is watching us after all."

You look down at your drink, trying your best to ignore her. However, you can feel Atsumu's gaze burn down at you for a moment before he ends up turning away. You're not sure what he says to her after that because you're suddenly approached by a handsome man on your opposite side.

"And I thought they didn't let assholes like him in here," he smiles at you.

"Oh? Heard that, did you?" you scoff as a small grin tugs at your lips.

"I could feel your pain from the other side of the room. So he's not your boyfriend then, is he?" the man then asks.

"No, but it's kinda complicated," you sigh as you look down at the bar counter, hoping to avoid the awkwardness of the conversation.

"Well then why don't we get out of here and go get ourselves some ice cream across the street?" he smiles kindly. You look over at him, intrigued by the idea until you can feel a large body hovering behind you.

"No way," Atsumu says with crossed arms. "I don't trust this guy as far as I could punch him in the face which is right here, right fucking now."

"Don't get all defensive just 'cause I know how to ask her out and you don't," the man smirks.

"The fuck do you know?" Atsumu hisses, his body growing as he gets angrier.

"For putting her in the friend zone you're a bit too overprotective, man. That's all I'm sayin'." With that, he picks up his drink and smirks at Atsumu as he walks away. "Ya know what, not worth it," he mutters as he goes. Atsumu sighs with relief as he watches the man leave.

Around one in the morning, you and Atsumu stumble out of the bar side by side towards where you're supposed to meet your carshare ride. "Ya know," you hiccup as you bump into his side, "it's odd that people think we're dating when I was actually gonna marry your brother instead."

Atsumu stops walking and turns to face you. "What?" he says, shocked. "What do you mean? He proposed?"

"No, 'course not," you reply with a lopsided smile. "I was gonna propose to him." You then pull out the small ring from your wallet and carefully hand it over to him. "I was gonna give it to him the night he went missing..."

"Shit," Atsumu mumbles to himself as he passes you back the ring. He looks like his brain is literally about to explode. "Shit, I'm really sorry, Y/N. I didn't know, I swear I didn't. I never would've-"

"It's okay," you smile as you tuck the ring away. "I never told you. How could you know? It's alright."

You reach your hand up to his cheek without really thinking about it. However, when Atsumu notices how close you're getting to him again, he pulls back before you can make any kind of move on him.

"Y/N, please. You were gonna marry my brother. My fucking brother," he repeats as he tries to wrap his brain around the whole thing. "Shit, what the fuck is wrong with me."

"What does it matter? You knew he and I were dating. It's not that much of a difference. Besides, I can't marry him anymore so I guess there's no point dwelling on it," you admit as your eyes cast down at the ground.

Atsumu looks at you for a moment as he thinks about all the information he's gotten tonight. Not only from you, but from that stranger at the bar, too. You're right, there's no point in dwelling on it. So instead of waiting any longer, Atsumu reaches his hands up to the sides of your face and kisses you. Your eyes burst wide open as your heart skips a beat.

Just as his tongue gently slides against yours, a blinding light sweeps past to ruin the moment. Your ride is here and, unfortunately, that means Atsumu breaks away from you.

The car ride is quiet. There's a serious firey tension in the back of the car, but neither you nor Atsumu say a single word or pass each other a moment's glance until you get home.

Atsumu thanks the driver for the ride before grabbing you by the hand and whisking you out of the car. He almost runs straight to the front door where he fumbles around for his keys until you both finally get inside.

The moment he closes the door, you jump right into his arms. His lips meet yours desperately as he walks you towards the only bedroom in his house. Your clothes are pulled off in record time before he lays you down and climbs over top of you.

He bends down on his elbows as he reaches down to your neck and finally marks you as his own. You tilt your head away from him and allow him to have his way as he bruises the flesh of your skin down to your chest. But before he gets any further down, he pulls back up to his hands and looks down at you to catch his breath.

"Are you alright?" you ask as you watch him closely.

"I can't," he shakes his head. "I can't do this to you. It'll only hurt you more."

"That's not true," you tell him as your hands find their way to his hair. "You'll hurt by not doing this."

"I don't want to play pretend with you, Y/N. I'm not Samu and I can't pretend to be him," he says as he knits his eyebrows together.

"That's not what we're doing, you know that. I want to be here with you right now, Atsumu," you assure him.

"But in a heartbeat you'd leave me for him. Would you even hesitate if you had the chance to be with him again?" he asks seriously.

You find yourself at a complete loss for words. You don't know what to say. To be quite honest, you don't know if he's right or not. But because you don't answer, Atsumu steps away from you and picks up his shirt from the floor. He quickly throws it over his head. He doesn't even wait until it's on properly until he leaves you in the dark room alone for the night.
