Your Eyes Said Otherwise [A Tsukishima Kei Fanfiction]

Chapter 18: Siblings Date

Mizuki's POV

Everyone is tired, even the twins who are usually very energetic. Today was an emotional rollercoaster for all of us. The bus ride was a bit awkward since I sat beside Tsukishima, I was forced by the twins. It almost made me cry since I remembered all the good times I was beside him. But I just decided to sleep it out, making sure the twins are asleep first.

"You'll get cold.", I whispered to Yuito who's sitting on my lap. I wrapped his blanket around him as he leans on my chest to sleep.

I looked at Yuuto who was yawning, he was sitting on Tsukishima's lap, leaning on his chest too. I grabbed Yuuto's blanket from his bag and gently put it over him. Tsukishima adjusted it to make sure Yuuto's whole body is covered.

"You really look like parents over there.", Sugawara said.

"Shhh.", I whispered at him, low key telling him to stop teasing us.

"Right, sorry.", he quietly apologized and left us alone.

I sighed and looked out the window, my eyes are now dropping close from exhaustion.

~°~°~°~°~

"We're here!"

I tiredly opened my eyes, wanting to continue sleeping. I looked at my surroundings and immediately noticed that my head was resting on Tsukishima's shoulder.

Force of habit.

My eyes widened and I quickly shot my head up, blushing furiously. I looked at him and he seemed like he didn't care.

He didn't care.

"Sorry...", I mumbled, not knowing if it was audible.

He didn't reply so I assumed he didn't hear it. I looked at the twins who are awake but still sleepy.

"Oba-san, I still want to sleep.", Yuito said, hugging me.

"You can sleep when we get home, okay? We still need to eat dinner, Mr. Ukai will treat us.", I replied, brushing his bangs away.

"Okay.", he muttered.

We tiredly got off the bus, entering a restaurant. As soon as we sat down, Nishinoya, Tanaka and Hinata fell asleep again. The twins are awake but are staring at nothing, everyone was still sleepy and tired. Our food arrived shortly after but no one was eating.

"You need to decide if you're gonna eat or sleep!", Coach Keishin said. The twins yawned and sat properly.

"Coach, I'm shwo happwy.", Mr. Takeda said, his face was scrunched up and tears are still in his eyes.

"Sensei, you're face is a mess. And that's the eighth time you said that.", Coach Keishin said.

"We should start eating before the food gets cold.", I said.

"Thank you for the food.", the twins and I said and started eating.

"Thank you for the food.", the others followed and started eating too.

We ate in silence since everyone is tired. Thankfully, the twins aren't picky eaters, although Yuuto has peanut allergy.

After a while, my phone started ringing. I immediately grabbed it and looked at the caller. It was Akaashi.

"Excuse me.", I said and stood up before answering. "Hello, Akaashi-san?", I answered and walked outside so that the silence can be kept inside.

"Hey Mii-chan. How's the match?", he asked. I chuckled and smiled.

"We'll be seeing you at Nationals.", I answered. I heard him chuckle too.

"Congratulations. You're probably tired, I can tell by the tone of your voice.", he replied.
