Ushijima's POV
Recently, I'd figured out why I was smiling so much at Tendou recently, and why there was this weird honey feeling whenever he smiled or did his little dance of victory.
I... I liked him. Tendou seemed to be straight, so I've been ignoring the crush, hoping it'll stay stagnant until we graduate. Then I'll move on to playing League volleyball and hopefully then this thing that my heart is doing will go away.
"Wakatoshi!" Tendou beckoned me from the end of the hall. "Why're you walking so slowly? It's not like you! Faster to practice!" He attempted pushing me, but I just walked at my normal pace and maintained a blank, straight face. "Say, Wakatoshi. Something seems to have been on your mind the past few days. Did you finally catch the disease known as emotions? Hate? Joy? Relief? Distaste? Hm... Perhaps love?" I stiffened but continued moving.
"Ah, so it is love! Wakatoshi-kun, since we're such good friends..."
"No." I deadpan.
"Oh, so there is someone!" Tendou smiles cheekily and my heart thumps just a little louder. I pray it isn't actually as loud as what I hear it to be. Maintaining a blank face has been my daily routine since young, but why, is this, so difficult, today? Maybe because of Tendou's presence? Shoot.
Tendou looks at his best friend in Shiratorizawa, whom he'd befriended with the help of volleyball. Ushijima didn't seem right today, there's something off about him, and Tendou made up his mind to find out what it is. "Ushiwaka... Wakatoshi... Wakajima... Ushijima... Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me!" Tendou grins when he sees Ushijima's resolve crack a little.
"Well, if you want to know that badly," Ushijima sensed himself digging his own grave at the moment, but continued on with a blank face. "I like you." He then continued walking with a blank face, no alleviated heart rate, no blushing, no nothing, leaving a very confused Tendou trailing behind Ushijima.
Tendou was feeling extremely confused, the concept of someone liking him, let alone Ushijima Wakatoshi, was foreign and unexplored lands. He followed behind Ushijima silently. Was it a joke to get him off of his back? Tendou had no idea. Did Tendou reciprocate his feelings? Tendou didn't know either. So he answered, thinking it was a joke of some sort, "Well, I don't like you that way." Laughing, he then moved on ahead. After a long while of walking, he finally put his ego aside, looked behind him and noticed the lack of Ushijima's presence.
Ushijima had turned and silently went to the toilet, hurt, confused, and relieved all in one. He believed this would make it easier to forget his feelings, but he was also upset and confused by the rejection. His eyes felt wet but he put on his poker face, and cooled himself down, feeling his eyes dry from tearing up quickly enough. He then washes his hands with soap, and proceeds to leave. He is met by Tendou, who was right outside the door, pulling on the same door that Ushijima was pushing to open.
"Ah. I felt like I needed to use the toilet." All Ushijima had was composure, composure and more composure, and he put it all into his normal blank poker face, walking past Tendou at his normal pace, leaving Tendou extra confused.
'What? I thought he went to like, cry, or laugh at me for taking it seriously.' Ushijima had left without Tendou, and Tendou only realised when he saw the empty corridor. 'He never leaves without me!' Tendou huffed a little, speed walking to the club room. Reaching the club room, he walks in on Ushijima halfway through changing and he takes a moment to appreciate the other boy's muscles-- He takes a moment, he corrects himself, to get over the shock of walking in on someone changing.
