HAND SANITIZER | K. SAKUSA

TWENTY TWO - HAND SANITIZER

AT THE END OF THE GAME, THE NATIONALS HAD WON. THEY ALL
cheered and high-fived, the cheerleaders doing their finishing cheer.

the coach had a small talk with the team, congratulating them and giving a speech. after they were finished, everyone scattered.

alex was at the bench drinking water, feeling relief that she was finished for the day.

"girls!" the cheer coach yelled, smiling at them. "amazing job today, you all looked great. no practice for the weekend, i'll see you's back on monday." they all nodded with smiles, alex gathering her things.

"sakusa!" an annoying voice called out, making both sakusa and alex turn their head. jessica strutted over to him quickly, standing in front of him with a smile. "you played soo great, and you looked so good out there."

she put her hand out, putting it on his upper bicep, feeling him up. alex watched from a far, not realizing her jaw was on the floor.

sakusa pulled his arm away, scowling at the blonde. "listen, don't touch me. i told you I'm not interested in you, knock it off."

she scoffed, frowning angrily as she turned on her heels and stormed away. alex raised her eyebrows in some form of shock, not knowing what was said.

sakusa turned his head over to her quickly, making eye contact. he waved her over, making her a little more shocked. she pointed to herself as in asking "me?". he stared at her, looking at her to say "who else would it be."

she hid her smile as she speed walked over, happy to be able to talk to him.  she had been trying to push passed what happened, feeling guilty for getting mad as they weren't together.  he watched as she did, not hiding his little grin.

"since when are you a cheerleader?" he smiled more at her, pulling her in for a hug as soon as she was in front of him.

"since like, a week ago." she hugged back, squeezing him tightly. "i'm sorry i didn't tell you, i was trying to surprise you with it i guess?"

sakusa chuckled, pulling somewhat away from the hug to look at her. "yeah, what a surprise it was."

"what's that supposed to mean?" she shoved him playfully, making him laugh again.

"i was hard the second i realized it was you in the lineup." he looked her up and down, admiring how she looked. "i don't want people seeing you like this girl, i can see how perfect you are with every look i take."

her face went bright red, not expecting the remark. "you're being really flirty.. what do you want?" she smiled goofily, the tall male laughing at her.

"nothing, nothing. i just thought i should express my feelings, and my feelings are that you look too good to be seen like this." he smoothed her hair down, smiling at her. "come on, go grab your bag and run back so you can come with me to get my stuff yeah? the guys miss you anyway."

she nodded quickly, running away to the bench. he watched her, laughing at her frantic movements. she ran back towards him, his eyes immediately going to her chest.

he looked away just as quick as he looked, turning his back and beginning to walk so she'd catch up. she appeared besides him, giving him a big smile.

"so what're you doing tonight mister?" her arm wrapped around his, trying to see if he'd stop her.

"nothing really, they'll probably wanna do stuff, but i get tired and sore after games." she nodded, looking up at him every few seconds. he felt her way of interlinking them, not bothered by it.

"do you wanna come relax at my place instead?" he looked down at her, entering the hallway.

"i don't see why not. i'll have atsumu walk you back so i can go get clothes and stuff and meet you at yours." alex nodded, screaming internally. "wait out here, ill be out in a second. oh, and put this on." he handed her his sweater, disappearing into the room.

she stood outside the locker room door, leaning against the wall. she slipped the jacket on, zipping it up some and adjusting it.

she went on her phone as she waited, ignoring people as the went through the hall.

"oh, hey alex." osamu spoke, making her look up. she smiled at him.

"hey. what's up?"

"nothing much really." he stood next to her, leaning with her. "what've you been up to?"

"trying to adjust to moving every day." she laughed, osamu chuckling. "no, but really, i've only been doing school and cheer. you happy you guys won?"

"of course. we're having a party to celebrate tonight too. you coming?" she looked at him. seeing his excited smile.

"um, well i already have some plans tonight that i don't think i can cancel? maybe the next one." he nodded, patting her shoulder. atsumu exited the locker room with omi (who now had a mask on), everyone looking at each other.

"ready to go?" atsumu asked her, alex nodding in reply.

"bye samu, have fun tonight." she gave him a short smile before turning to the dark haired male. "i'll see you soon, yeah?" she pulled his mask down, giving him a soft but luring kiss on the lips.

he nodded in reply, stunned by her actions. she walked away with atsumu, leaving sakusa behind speechless.

he turned his head slowly to his grey haired friend, mask still pulled down. osamu laughed aggressively.

"bro, i'm not gonna lie, i invited her to our party and she declined because she had important plans, but now that i know that what she's doing is you i'm 100% for it."

"..i don't even know what to say." sakusa fixed his mask slowly, osamu laughing harder. "did i just get seduced or something?"

"you're getting laid tonight brother, that's what." osamu patted his back, still laughing.
