My One and Only (Akaashi x Reader)

Chapter 9

A few days before the school festival, Y/N, Akaashi, and Bokuto walked through the bustling hallways of their school, their excitement for the upcoming event palpable. They chatted animatedly about their roles in the festival, but the buzz around Akaashi's secret admirer was never too far from their minds.

As they approached their lockers, Y/N noticed Akaashi's locker was already adorned with a new envelope. It was the same colorful heart-shaped sticker, and the sight of it made Y/N's heart skip a beat.

"Another note?" Y/N asked, trying to sound nonchalant but failing to hide her curiosity.

Akaashi opened his locker, revealing the note. With a half-smile, he read it aloud: Dear Akaashi, I'm falling for you faster than a volleyball spikes through the air. I hope this note makes your day as bright as you make mine. —Your Secret Admirer (>▽<)

Y/N's eyes widened slightly as she absorbed the words. A pang of jealousy twisted in her chest, and she struggled to mask her reaction. She forced a smile, trying to join in the conversation about the note. "That's... sweet," she said, her tone lacking enthusiasm.

Bokuto, ever perceptive to the dynamics around him, noticed Y/N's subdued response. "Y/N, you okay? You seem a bit off today."

Y/N quickly composed herself. "Oh, I'm fine. Anyway, I've got to get going. I'll catch up with you guys later."

With a hurried smile, Y/N excused herself and walked away, her mind swirling with mixed emotions. As she rounded the corner, she took a deep breath, trying to shake off the feeling of jealousy that had crept up on her.

C'mon, Y/N. You told yourself not to get so involved in it already, urghhhh!

Back at the lockers, Bokuto watched Y/N leave with a thoughtful expression. He turned to Akaashi, who was still holding the note and looking somewhat contemplative.

"Hey, Akaashi," Bokuto began, breaking the silence, "Do you think Y/N's been acting a bit strange lately? I noticed she didn't seem too thrilled about the note."

Akaashi, still holding the note, nodded slowly. "I've noticed it too. She's been distant recently, and I'm not sure what's going on."

Bokuto scratched his head, a look of curiosity on his face. "You think it's got something to do with the notes? Or maybe it's just something else?"

Akaashi shrugged. "It's possible. I haven't really had a chance to talk to her about it. But it's clear she's been off lately."

Bokuto's eyes lit up with a sudden realization. "You know, Akaashi, I've been thinking... Maybe Y/N has some feelings for you. The way she acted when she saw the note—could it be that she's jealous?"

Akaashi's eyebrows knitted together as he processed Bokuto's observation. "You think so? I hadn't really considered that. But now that you mention it, it does make sense."

Bokuto grinned, clearly excited by his own theory. "Yeah! I mean, you and Y/N have been spending a lot of time together. It wouldn't be surprising if she developed feelings for you."

Akaashi leaned against his locker, deep in thought. "I guess I'll have to find a way to talk to her about it. I don't want to assume anything without having a proper conversation."

Bokuto nodded in agreement. "Definitely. It might be worth figuring out what's going on. And if she does have feelings for you, it could explain a lot about her recent behavior."

As the two friends continued their conversation, Akaashi's mind was occupied with thoughts of Y/N and the possibility that she might have feelings for him. He resolved to approach her with sensitivity, wanting to clear the air and understand what was really going on.

Meanwhile, Y/N wandered through the school, her thoughts a whirlwind of emotions. The note from Akaashi's secret admirer had stirred up feelings she had tried to keep in check. As the festival approached, she knew she needed to confront her own emotions and decide how to move forward.
