Blocking My Heart (Kei Tsukishima X Reader)

A Not So Perfect Confession

__ won the bet, but that was the last thing on her mind. After practice she grabbed Yamaguchi's sleeve. "Hey Yamaguchi, can I talk to you for a bit?" ___ asked. "Of course!" Yamaguchi said. "Let's go outside." She said. She started walking out the doors and Yamaguchi followed her. She walked a ways away from the doors to the side of the gym. "This is good." ___ said. "It's already dark outside," Yamaguchi mused, "So what did you need to talk about?" 

"I.. I think I'm ready to confess.." ___ said. "Really?! That's great news!" Yamaguchi said giving her a hug. "I know, I know, I took forever to work up the nerve." She laughed. "But the thing is.. I need to practice." "Practice?" Yamaguchi asked. "Yeah, practice." ___ said. "I need to practice my confession, so I can do it right." "What can I do to help?" Yamaguchi asked. "Let me practice with you." ___ said. Yamaguchi nodded. "Of course."

___ took a deep breath and grabbed Yamaguchi's hands. "Here goes nothing.." she said. "Yamaguchi, ever since I met you, I knew that I cared about you. Everyday we spent together was magical, and the more I got to know you, the more I fell for you." She took a deep breath. "Ever since we were kids, I knew what I wanted, and that was to be by your side, forever." She blushed. "And that's why.. I love you."

Just then she heard a noise behind her. She whipped her head around. It was Tsukkishima standing a few feet away. "So that's how it is.." he muttered turning away. "Tsukkishima wait! You misunderstood!" She grabbed his sleeve. "Tsk.." He said trying to shake her off.

 "Tsukkishima, you're a big, stupid, blockheaded dummy!" she yelled. "and that's why I.. I love you!" Tsukkishima paused. He turned around and looked into her eyes, searching for the truth in her words. With one look he could tell she was telling the truth, and his heart jumped in his chest. "This isn't how I wanted this to go," she said. "That's why I was practicing with Yamaguchi." She sighed.

Tsukkishima turned around and pulled her into an embrace. "You have no idea how long I have been waiting to hear those words.." he whispered holding her close. Yamaguchi smiled softly, taking this as his signal to leave. His work here was done. He left knowing that things were finally right. His two best friends were finally sharing their feelings for eachother, and he couldn't be happier. "And so their love story begins," he whispered to himself. He turned and began walking away.

"I've loved you ever since we were kids," "Tsukkishima said softly. "I was going to tell you right before you left, but I was scared you'd tell me you loved me too." "Being away from you killed me," ___ whispered. "Your bracelet gave me strength to continue on. I spent day after day scowering online, searching for jobs in Japan for my father until finally one day I found one. I had to find my way back to you, even if it took years."

Tsukkishima pulled away slightly. "I believe this is where I kiss you," he said. He leaned down and slowly drew his lips closer to hers before finally closing the distance. The kiss was soft at first, but filled with all the love and passion of years being apart, years of suppressed emotions and yearning for one another. ___ pulled back to take a breath, only to be brought back in to the sweet kiss before pulling away once again. She looked into his eyes.

"I had no idea you felt the same way," she whispered. "If Yamaguchi had just told me.." "If Yamaguchi had told me.." Tsukkishima whispered. "We would have been together the moment you came back.." "The moment I came back.." they whispered at the same time. "She smiled. "He always knew, didn't he?" Tsukkishima asked. "He gave me the courage to confess," she said. "He convinced me to come back to you, to say goodbye before you left, and to give you the bracelet he helped me make." Tsukkishima said.

"We owe him a lot." ___ said smiling. "He's a good friend." "We owe this all to him." Tsukkishima said. ___ wrapped her arms around Tsukkishima's neck and pulled him closer. "We'll be sure to thank him," she said, "But for now, let's cherish this moment." She pulled him in for another kiss. This kiss was more intense than the last, and she could feel sparks flying in her brain. 'This is it,' she thought. 'This is what love feels like.' She couldn't help but smile into the kiss.

The kiss got more intense, and Tsukkishima held her close, not letting her escape. "Hah..___ breathed. 'Now this is a kiss!' she thought. The two continued kissing for awhile before ___ pulled away, feeling the need to breathe. "That was.." "Amazing." Tsukkishima finished. "Let's do it again." ___ said pulling him close. They kissed again and again before pulling away. "It's getting late," Tsukkishima said. "Let me walk you home." "But I don't want to go home yet." ___ said defiantly. "Well that's just too bad." Tsukkishima said grabbing her hand. They began to walk.

"Do we have to?" ___ complained. "You'll see me tomarrow." He said as they passed the park. "But I want to see you now." She said. "You are seeing me now." He replied. "Well I want to see you longer." They were now approaching her house. "Stay the night." She said. "But your dad's home.." Tsukkishima said noting the car in the driveway. "The one damn time he actually comes home.." ___ mumbled. "Tomarrow night?" She asked. "Maybe." He said. They walked up her steps.

"I believe this is where I kiss you goodbye," he said leaning down. "But I don't want to say goodbye!" ___ yelled. "Shh.." he said leaning down, capturing her lips with his. He pulled away. "Better?" He asked. "A bit.." she said. "But I still don't want to say goodbye.." "Don't make me call your dad." Tsukkishima said laughing. "You wouldn't!" ___ said taken aback. Tsukkishima put his finger to the doorbell. "Your right, I wouldn't call him, but I would do this." He pressed the doorbell. "You are so mean!" She yelled punching him in the shoulder. He gave her one last kiss. "I'll see you tomarrow." He said giving her a hug. "See you tomarrow.." she mumbled. 

Her father opened the door and she stepped inside. He said goodbye to Tsukkishima before closing the door behind her. "Spill it!" He said. "Spill what?" She asked. "Don't pretend like you weren't kissing Tsukkishima! Now spill it girlie!" "Wait, you saw us?!" ___ cried out. "When you screamed 'I don't want to say goodbye'," he said mimicking her whiney voice, "I looked out the window only to find you two making out a second later." ___ blushed.

"So spill and I'll give you tacos!" He said leading her to the kitchen taking a seat at the island. "But!" She protested. "Tacos," he said in a sing song voice. "Fine.." she muttered in defeat. "It all started when I confessed to Yamaguchi.."
