Blocking My Heart (Kei Tsukishima X Reader)

Staying The Night

After much contemplating, Tsukkishima called his mom and said he'd be staying at a friend's house tonight before heading up to ___'s room. "Did you decide yet?" ___ asked. She was flopped down on the middle of her bed. "Yeah," he said hesitantly. "I'll stay the night." "Really?! I thought for sure you were going to chicken out and say no." She laughed. She scooted over on her bed and patted the spot next to her. "Come on then, get nice and comfortable." 

Tsukkishima reluctantly sat down on the edge of her bed looking around. "Your room is so different from how it used to be," he said. "Well yeah," ___ said laughing. "I'm not a little kid anymore." He looked over at her wall before noticing some pictures pinned on a bulletin board. "Is that.. us?" He asked. She looked over. "Yeah! That's like my childhood shrine right there," she said. "It's got a lot of pictures of you, me, and Yamaguchi together along with things like movie ticket stubs and stuff. All sorts of stuff that bring back memories of my childhood."

He studied the pictures. "That brings back a lot of memories." He said. "Is that one there your sixth birthday?" He pointed. "Yeah!" She said. "That's the year that dad shoved my face in my cake 'cause he thought it would be a cute picture." "Well, it kinda is," Tsukkishima said. "We were so young back then.." "Who would've thought we'd be here, in my room as high schoolers?" She said. "We gotta make lots more memories so I can put it on my board." She took out her phone. 

"Come here! Let's take a picture right now!" She patted the spot right next to her, stretching out. "Are you sure I should be laying on your bed?" He asked blushing. "Why not?" She said. "Now come here!" He reluctantly laid down. She opened her camera app and turned it to her front-facing camera. "Tsukki, you're going to have to come closer than that if we're going to fit both of us in the picture." "Your phone has a front-facing camera?" He asked. "Yeah, it's a smartphone," she said. "Everyone in America has them."

She closed her camera app and showed him her home screen. "See? They have all sorts of fun apps. That and you've got your front-facing camera, your rear-facing camera, email, SMS, you can browse the internet.. you can pretty much do anything on it." She tossed it to him and he examined it before handing it back to her. "I still have a flip phone," he said. "Well if you ever wanna play around on my phone just ask. It's pretty fun actually. It has a bunch of games too."

She opened her camera app once again. "I still can't fit both of us in it," she said. "You're going to have to come closer." Tsukkishima scooted closer until their bodies were touching. "There we go," ___ said. "I still can't fit both of us in very well though.." She handed her phone to him. "You've got longer arms than me. Maybe you can fit us both in." He took the phone and held it out. They fit in perfectly. "Just press that big circle button there to take a picture."

Tsukkishima pressed the button. "I think I got it," he said. "Here, let me see." Tsukkishima handed the phone back and she opened her photo album. "Here it is," she said. She opened the photo. She was laying on the bed, her hair splayed out around her and Tsukkishima was laying next to her, an awkward smile on his face. "We look so cute together!" ___ said happily. "This is totally going to be my new lockscreen and background!" She quickly set them to the image. "There! Looks nice doesn't it?" She smiled.

"It does," Tsukkishima said. "Oh my god! I just realised I don't have your number!" She opened her contacts and selected add new contact before handing the phone to Tsukkishima. "Here, just type in your number." "Your keyboard is weird," he said as he typed in his number before handing it back to her. ___ laughed. "You get used to it." She said. She set Tsukkishima contact name to 'Tsukki~♡'. "And.. saved. Here, I'll text you now so you'll have my number." ___ quickly texted Tsukkishima a smiley face and two hearts, sending the message. Tsukkishima's phone went off. He pulled it out of his pocket.

"Got it." He said. He quickly added her to his contacts. "Here, let me send the photo we just took." She quickly sent the photo and Tsukkishima recieved it. "You should set it to your phone background too!" ___ said. Tsukkishima blushed and changed his background. "There! Now we have a new memory together and matching backgrounds!" She smiled. "It's getting late, should we go to bed soon?" ___ asked. 

"Yeah, but where am I going to sleep?" Tsukkishima asked. "I told you silly! We can share my bed! We used to do it all the time when we were kids! What's the problem?" Tsukkishima blushed. "Yeah, but it's different now.. We're grown up. It's not normal for teenagers to sleep together." He said. ___ blushed. "You obviously haven't met teenagers in America," she said. "They do a lot more than sleep together." ___ mentally kicked herself. 'Oh my god! Why did I say that?! It's not like we're a couple! We wouldn't be doing 'that'! What is wrong with me?!' 

Tsukkishima blushed. "Just.. don't make it weird." ___ said blushing. "Just pretend we're kids if you need to." ___ turned on her lamp before crawling over Tsukkishima to get up and turn off her light. "I'm going to go out some pyjamas on," she said grabbing a pair out of her drawer. "You can get undressed and get comfortable if you want." "Okay, thanks." Tsukkishima said blushing. He took off his jacket and set it on the floor while ___ went to the bathroom to change. Shortly later she returned wearing a pair of spandex and a tank top.

"Okay done!" She said throwing her uniform on the floor. She crawled over Tsukkishima and laid down. Tsukkishima blushed. "That's what you're wearing to bed?" He asked. "Yeah, what's wrong with it?" She asked. "This is what I normally wear to bed." "It's.. nothing." Tsukkishima said blushing. "Here Tsukki, get up for a sec. Let me pull down the covers." Tsukkishima got off the bed and ___ stood on her pillow, struggling to pull down the covers. Tsukkishima laughed.

"Wouldn't it be easier to get off the bed to pull down the covers?" "I do this all the.. time!" ___ said struggling. "Just give me a sec!" ___ jumped up in the air and pulled down the covers. "There! Got it!" ___ said. She laid back down. "You can lay back down now." She said. Tsukkishima laid down on the very edge of the bed and ___ rolled on her side. "Tsukki, you're going to fall off the bed like that." ___ said. "Just scoot closer to me." "I'm fine," Tsukkishima said pulling up the covers. "No you're not." ___ said.

She rolled back over and grabbed his arm, turning him so he was facing her and he was no longer hanging off the bed. There faces were only a few inches apart. They both blushed. "T-There.." she said. "You should be more comfortable now." She quickly rolled over so that her back was facing Tsukkishima. "I'm going to shut the light off now." She said pulling the covers up over her so that they were under the covers together. "T-That's fine." Tsukkishima said. He took off his glasses. "Could you set these on your bedside table?" He asked. "Sure," she said taking them. She set them on the table before turning off her lamp. "Goodnight Tsukki," she said. "goodnight ___," he said back. "Sweet dreams," she whispered. "You too," he whispered back.

They both slowly drifted off to sleep.
