Countdown ~TsukiHina~

~314~

~Tsukishima~

So, today's the day of our quote on quote second date. Wait a minute, why in the ever loving shit am I saying quote on quote? Like it or not, this is a date and the last one was to and you do like it so stop trying to convince yourself that you're not. Anyway, back into reality we go brain, I'm waiting for Hinata to show up. How rude of him to be late, honestly shrimpy get your tardiness under control before I fucking punish you for it... wait no I take that back that's not what I meant shut the fuck up.

You know what would be a good idea, ordering before he gets here. That way I can make sure he doesn't get anything with caffeine in it. Yeah, that sounds like a good plan. I walk up to the counter and, after waiting in line because I'm not fucking rude, I order. "Hi, can I get an americano and a hot chocolate for my friend?"

~Hinata~

I can't believe I was late! Tsukishima's going to be so annoyed with me! I mean, it wasn't my fault entirely. Sure, I accidentally set my alarm for ten pm instead of ten am but that's totally not my fault that I ended up oversleeping by an hour! Oh my god I must look like such a mess right now, my hair's all messy because it wouldn't cooperate with me despite me brushing it repeatedly and I literally just threw on some jeans and a tshirt, oh, and Tsukishima's hoodie. Don't judge me, ok? It's super comfy, I couldn't just not wear it.

I look around the small cafe, looking for a familiar blonde tree. I spot him sat at a table for two by the window, how romantic... at least I think that's romantic. I'm not entirely sure to be honest with you. I walk over to him and bow my head. "I'm sorry I'm late!"

He rolls his eyes and motions to the spare seat, across from him. "It's whatever, stop shouting and sit down, you're disturbing people." Passive aggressive as always Tsukishima, I see. Well, I suppose I can live with that but only because... well I guess it's because I love you but there could be some deeper meaning to it, I'm not sure.

I slide into the seat and eye up the cup in front of me. "Hey Tsukki, what is this?" I signal towards the drink. It can't just be me who gets anxious when someone orders for you and you don't know what it is. I mean, what if he's trying to poison me? It's highly unlikely but still.

He shrugs. "Just coffee, same as last week. Don't worry, I'm not trying to kill you, you fucking dumbass." Oh good, he saw straight through my worries. Apparently Tsukki can read my like a book as well. I really need to get better at hiding things, I don't want to go through life with everyone knowing exactly what I'm thinking all the time just from the look on my face.

~Tsukishima~

"H-Hey! I'm not a dumbass!" Oh but you are, you're just too much of a dumbass to notice it. Should I say that? Probably not, apparently you're not supposed to be mean to your boyfriend, or future boyfriend in my case. Give it another half an hour when I've worked up the confidence to ask him. Oh but I've thought of the perfect comeback for that and it involves a very lowkey confession. Would he even understand though? I don't know but it's worth a try, even if he is a little stupid.

"You're right." I shrug. "I shouldn't call you a dumbass, because you're not just any old dumbass, are you Hinata?" He looks ready to literally explode and honestly I'm living for it. I smirk. "If you'd like to be my dumbass, I suppose I could call you that instead." For the first time in my life, I think, I wink. It feels gross, I feel like Oikawa and it's pissing me off but what's done is done, I can't take it back.

I watch his face slowly go bright red, is he embarrassed? Shit, I hope I didn't embarrass him. That is potentially the only time I'll ever say something like that but it's true. "I-I...uh..." He's going to reject me, isn't me. I can almost taste the rejection. "Tsuskishima I..." Suddenly, he smiled wide which takes me aback. "Yes! I'd love to be your dumbass!"

My heart is pounding in my chest. I don't know why I'm surprised, he literally accidentally told me he loves me like last week but something inside me was still worried. "Well, it's settled then." Why the fuck did I say that? You don't say that! You fucking idiot! "You're all mine now." Well I'm coming out with some right bangers today, aren't I? You're all mine now? Shut the fuck up you absolute possessive stalker twat.

"I'm fine with that." He shrugs. I can see the blush beginning to die down which is a shame because it really suits him, it's cute. Wait, what am I saying? This isn't like me. Is it normal to think that you're future... wait no he is actually my boyfriend now so I guess it is normal. I don't know, I'm no good with this relationship bullshit. "But does that mean I can call you mine to?"

"Yes Hinata. Yes it does."
