Mrs Americana

3

Y/n Sawamura

Walking into the Sawamura house would never get old. Maybe it was the contrast to the average American home, but I think it was the home itself. The house was decorated perfectly with dark would and gold, which tied together with the sweet scent and constant comfortable temperature.

I sat down at the desk in my room and pulled out my computer to start my homework when I felt my stomach rumble. I hadnt eaten yet today so this didn't surprise me much.

I went downstairs and into the kitchen to find absolutely no snacks. It's almost like in Japan they don't want to kill themselves with fatty foods and snacks like Americans. In the fridge I found some eggs and up in the cabinet there was a bag of rice. I turned on the oven and started to cook myself some lunch, when Daichi and his best friend walked in.

"Hey Y/n" Daichi said to me as he and Sugawara walked into the kitchen as well. "Sup Y/n" The silver haired boy added.

"Hey guys!" I replied, "Do either of you want some rice and eggs?".

"Yes please!" They both said sitting down at the kitchen table.

I grabbed two more eggs out of the carton and cracked them into the pan I had out on the stove. As I did so the two boys went into a rant about volleyball and their upcoming scrimmage against Aoba Johsai next week.

"You guys are scrimmaging next week?" I interjected.

"Yeah I thought the girls were too?" My cousin responded, making it (probably) the longest conversation we'd had since I arrived.

"Oh, I didn't hear anything about it." I told him, "but I will ask Himura later.".

"Uhm- Y/n, I think you're burning the eggs..." Sugawara butted in.

I had been reading for about three hours at this point. I had a candle burning and music playing. Oh and the sound of Tanaka in Daichis room yelling about something every ten seconds. Daichi had invited a few others from his year over to stay over since they had an afternoon practice tomorrow.

"PLEASE DAICHI JUST ASK HER TO HANG OUT WITH US FOR A LITTLE!!" I heard Tanaka scream for the 500th time now. Who could he possibly be that interested in inviting over that he was begging Daichi for the last hour?

"FINE! SHUT UP NOW WILL YA?" Daichi finally yelled back at him. I giggled to myself, every time Tanaka was over him and Daichi ended up yelling at each other over something. I went back to reading my book and they finally all went quiet, thank god finally.

*Knock Knock*

Who could possibly be at my door? Both mine and Daichis parents were out right now. I approached the door, opening to to reveal Daichi, Suga, and an overly excited Tanaka on the other side.

"Hey y/n!" Tanaka said, he literally sweating and shaking while he talked to me.

"Hey?" I replied, genuinely confused as to why they were all outside my door acting weird.

Sugawara laughed at Tanaka and his nervous body language as we all stood there, "We were wondering if you'd want to come hang out with us and watch a movie or something?"

No way they were all that awkward about asking me to watch a god damn movie with them.

"Yeah for sure give me a minute or two and I'll come join you guys." I told them, also giggling a little about the situation.

The boys went back to Daichis room and I shut the door. I threw on a more comfortable pair of pajama pants and a crewneck with the logo of my old volleyball team before making my way over to Daichis room.

His room was nice, i had seen it once or twice when I needed to ask him for or about something. It was clean, but in the way that he barely had anything in it. He had a desk, a presumably king sized bed and his TV and gaming console.

When I walked in Daichi was already sitting at his desk, Tanaka on his bed and Suga on the floor. I took a seat on the door next to him as Daichi put on some random movie about basketball that apparently was 'Tanakas favorite' but I honestly had never heard of before.

———————————————————————————

About 30 minutes in Tanaka had fallen asleep on Daichis bed and Daichi himself was clearly no longer even watching it as he just scrolled on his phone.

"Hey, y/n?" Sugawara said suddenly.

"Yeah what's up?" I replied.

"You used to play back in the USA right?" He said looking down at my shirt.

"Yeah, It's all I did back over there. I was my schools ace by my first year in high school." I told him looking up into his eyes.

"Well Id love to go watch you play, I'll have to find the girls schedule." He joked.

"Suga! Can you stop flirting with my cousin in my room?!" Daichi yelled whipping his head around.

I started laughing as Tanaka woke up and Sugawara groaned excuses for the situation as he buried his face into his hands.

We all started talking about volleyball, school and my life in America compared to their lives here for hours. Slowly we all fell asleep, including me on Daichis hard wooden floor wrapped in a blanket Id stolen from Tanaka earlier that night.

It felt nice finally not being strangers with my own cousin and his friends who practically lived here on the weekends.
