young love ♡

Suffocating practice.(7)

The feeling of Hianta's slender, but rough hands intertwined in her dainty ones was a new feeling. A feeling she could get used to. Another human beings hands had a special presence about them you see. If you've ever held hands with someone you would understand. It was more than just holding hands, it was a bond of pure human connection. The only way you could be closer to someone is by, sharing that moment with them. Yachi couldn't even force herself to think about that right now. Instead she focused on his fingers, his heart beat. This pure form of love that she had the pleasure, and honor of having.

Hinata on the other hand was thinking about her chest on his. Don't get it twisted, he wasn't a pervert. He also loved the feeling of her dainty hands. However, the feeling of her breathing combined with her heartbeat. It was like feelings music, like actually feeling it. Not hearing it and you get that feeling in your chest of happiness. Or that feeling of longing. Or whatever you feel when you listen to music. She was music in the rawest form below him. A muse.

Oh, no.

"H-Hinata kun? YACHI-SAN!?"

"AAAAAH!" Hinata screamed, at the absolute top of his lungs.
Yachi just stood there. Face getting redder by the second. Frozen in time, lost in space.

"What do you think you're doing to Yachi-san!?"

"Nothing we we weren't doing anything!"

"That's not what i saw! Where did he touch you Yachi?"

"I didn't touch her anywhere! We were just hugging!"

"Which one is it Hinata it Hinata? You didn't touch her or you were just hugging?"

This is insane they boys are grilling him! I gotta say something! But my feet won't move. My hearts thumping so hard into my chest i feel like if i move my heart is going to explode! Just breathe Yachi, in and out. Remember what your therapist said. Ground yourself. Something that's on the floor, a volley ball. Something i can touch, the nets. Something i can smell, Hinata since he's still close. Ok you got this!

"Boys honestly! We weren't doing anything, i came in her to grab some equipment for Kiyoko sempai, and me and Hinata got lost in conversation. He was so taken by my devotion that he sprang into a hug! Ah ha ha ha." Rubbing the back of her head, she prayed they'd listen.

No one said anything. Just stared, blinking slowly. Oh they don't believe me.

"Well you heard her boys! Its just a misunderstanding." Suga came in with a smile.

"Now come on! It's practice time and i don't want any slacking!"

The boys retreated from the door way. Hinata still shivering and Yachi was stuck in her place. Thank you Suga-san! Ushering, a little agitatedly at Hinata to move his butt and give Yachi some space. He sent a wink at Yachi. Oh no what does that mean?

Be grudgingly she walked over to what she was requested to retrieve. A large amount of air entered her lungs, and exited before she reached her hands to her hair and gave it a tug. The grounding technique she had been using for several months, it was something her therapist had taught her to "pull her back down to earth" when she was having a panic attack. It worked even under pressure and in front of people, she couldn't deny its effectiveness. Clenching her hand tight, she smiled. I'm becoming stronger, braver. She unclenched her tiny hand in the dark and finished her searching. After the few items she was told to retrieve were found and piled on top of her tiny arms; she exited on wobbly knees.
