TWENTY NINE - HAND SANITIZER

ALEX LAID ON HER BED, LISTENING TO THE BIRDS AND BUGS OUTSIDE.
she had been awake on and off all night, it now being 3:30 in the morning.

she sighed, throwing the covers off.  her feet hit the ground, leaving her room and entering the dead quiet hallway.

she waltzed to the living room, finding bokuto sitting with someone she didn't recognize. they both turned their head to her, bokuto smiling tiredly at her.

"why are you awake?" she spoke, frowning.

"well kuroo came over and one conversation led to another and now it's.." he checked his phone, nodding. "almost 4 am, wow."

she laughed, walking closer and sitting down on the opposite couch. "oh, yeah, this is kuroo, we go wayyyy back."

"bokuto, what's up with you talking like you're a senior citizen?"

"right? he speaks as if he has grandkids and is retired." alex looked at kuroo as he spoke, laughing at his comment. "kuroo tetsuro, i met bokuto and the others back in high school, they don't know i showed up."

"he's a sports promoter, he helped us get as big as we are, really. oh and us just being good." alex nodded, smiling at how bokuto spoke.

"sports promoter? what's that like?" alex turned to kuroo, crossing her legs on the sectional.

"dreamy. i'm making bank and loving what i do, couldn't ask for anything better." kuroo smirked, half-lidded. "what do you do?"

"nothing yet, im in college still."

"she's a baby, only 19 and in her 2nd year." bokuto nodded as he spoke, alex laughing again. he turned his head quickly to her and furrowed her eyebrows.

"i mean, i guess you are pretty young. what're you majoring in hm?"

"well, law. but, i'm hoping to be ada for sex crimes." kuroo raised his eyebrows, impressed.

"not bad, pretty and smart, you have a good head on your shoulders." she blushed lightly, not expecting the compliment.

"do all of you just hit on every moderately attractive woman you see?" she chuckled, both shaking their heads.

"no, just the ones i find intriguing enough to do so." kuroo replied, showing his smirk smile again. she rolled her eyes playfully, standing from the couch.

"okay, i think i'm going back to my room before get harassed more." she joked, both boys frowning.

"oh but we want more company!" bokuto whined, pleading with the girl. she laughed at him, looking at kuroo.

"yous want me to stay that bad?" kuroo nodded, popping his bottom lip out and giving her puppy dog eyes. "whatever." she huffed with a smile, plopping back onto the couch.  "it's crazy how easy you guys talk to new people."

"we would get kidnapped to be honest." koutarou shrugs, laying back in his seat.

"no, you would get kidnapped.  i actually have a brain.  when did you meet bokuto?"

"today." bokuto nodded smiling.  kuroo looked between the two, breaking out into laughter.

"yeah he's definitely getting kidnapped."

after everyone had actual rest, there was 5 days until the big game.  alex sat in the living room by herself, scrolling on her phone.  she had just gotten a manicure and pedicure paid for by the man she had just met.

she really did think it was so weird how quickly they came onto people. her parents had always taught her to never trust anyone quickly, especially when you first meet them.
