"are you really with bokuto?" yn asked suddenly after the waiter had just given them their order.
aran blinked once. 'i hate this.'
when yn invited him to their favourite coffee shop he expected more of the conversation about the last poem she got, since she didn't brought it up with him yet, and she loved talking about them and less of conversation about him.
"yes, why are you so suspicious about it?"
yn couldn't help but laugh.
"what?" aran huffed. "people can't be in love anymore?" not only him and bokuto, but also kuroo–who was actually in a relationship with bokuto but hadn't told anyone yet–had to be on it to cover for akaashi, so yn's excessive curiosity was worsening the situation.
"you're such a good friend," she giggled stirring her milkshake with the straw.
"why?" he asked, confused by where this conversation was going. what does his relationship with bokuto have to do with him being a good friend? "what are you not telling me?"
"i figured out it's 'kaashi who wrote the poems for me," she said with a smile that made aran feel relieved. he saw how yn was looking at akaashi, but he couldn't help but be concerned about how she would react if she found out, because there was a chance that yn would be upset that akaashi had lied to her a few times to keep her from figuring out it was him. "and he told me that you spent all that time with bokuto just for us to spend more time together, not for you to spend time with bokuto," she said, feeling a little silly that it was more believable for her that the two of them were a couple than realizing that it was all about her and akaashi.
"so you two talked about it?" he asked, eager to learn the details.
"sort of? he knows that i know," she said.
"that's all?"
"what else should there be?" she asked, shrugging her shoulders slightly.
"what else?" he nearly choked on the words, "girl. what's next? are you a couple now? are you planning a date? did you guys kiss or something? did akaashi confess to you his love? what happened? why aren't you telling me everything? why!"
"well, 'kaashi is really good at remembering things about me. i talked with him a while ago about those poems, before we got close, that i always mess things up because i want them so much, and this time i'll just wait for the good things to happen when the time comes."
aran took a deep breath and smiled softly. this was good. akaashi was an amazing guy and an excellent choice for yn, he knew this since he learned about his crush on her, but now he really saw how good he was for her. she finally had patience for herself, she took her time before diving headfirst into anything, and it paid off.
he knew from everything bokuto and kuroo said that she was also great for him. bokuto caught glimpses of akaashi's notebook where he wrote and it was overfilling with pages stuffed inside again, and he wasn't so protective about it anymore, like it was okay for people to see it, and it wasn't only about hiding his belongings, but also himself right with them. it wasn't obvious changes, aran didn't saw anything, but bokuto after few years of friendship and understanding akaashi couldn't stop smile on his face when he was talking about akaashi and yn.
"that's good," aran said, taking yn's hand on the table. "i'm really happy for both of you."
"me too," she replied. "it stressed me out that he didn't ask me out right away, but 'kaashi is... good. and i know him well enough to know that this doesn't mean that he isn't interested, like i would with anyone else, but it means he's waiting for the right moment. it must be stressful for him too that i threw that i know at him without warning and when he wasn't expecting it."
"i never saw anyone so interested in someone like akaashi is in you, so that's nothing you need to worry about."
yn smiled as she sipped her milk through the straw. hearing from someone else that akaashi liked her so much was like a dream come true, to know that she was truly someone worth to admire.
"i'll wait for him however long he needs to make another step."
