[ Atsumu x Sakusa ] - Broken Magnets

Chapitre 5

[ Still Atsumu POV ]

I woke up in the middle of the night feeling hot and I knew I wasn't going to fall backasleep for a while, so I went out for a small stroll.

I walked around, andwithout thinking about it, headed in the direction of Kiyoomi's room.Not that he would be up. I hesitated, before continuing.

I was nearly in front of it, when I saw a shadow walking in my direction, spooking me out.

It seemed to notice me and suddenly turned round, letting me catch a glimpse of some dark wavy hair, and recognizing it. 

I ran over and reached for it's hand. " wait Omi-kun!" He turn round to face me. 

" Yeah?"

" Why are you avoiding me? " 

" I don't know what your talking about" Even in the dim light, I could tell he was lying.

" Really? What about at dinner time? Or, mmh, the whole day?"

" I wasn't avoiding you. You were surrounded by fans all after noon and I was tired in the evening." 

" And right now?" I squeezed his hand. 

" What about right now?" 

" You know what I'm saying. Just tell me what I've done! please Omi-kun!"

" I" He took a breath " I promise I wasn't avoiding you intentionally, and I didn't even see it was you until you called out earlier"

I sighted, knowing he wasn't going to tell me anything " Fine. If you say so. But you better not avoid me tomorrow! "  I let go of his hand. 

" As I told you, I wasn't avoiding you, and I won't tomorrow."

" Ok, goodnight Omi..."

" Goodnight"

[ Sakusa POV ]

" Why are you avoiding me? "

" I don't know what your talking about" I answered. Of course I knew what he was talking about

" Really? What about at dinner time? Or, mmh, the whole day?" 

'What do you want me to say? Oh, don't worry, I was just jealous of all those girls fawning and touching you? Oh, and let's not forget about these feelings?' 

" I wasn't avoiding you. You were surrounded by fans all after noon and I was tired in the evening."

 Another lie

" And right now?" I felt him squeeze my hand.

" What about right now?"

" You know what I'm saying. Just tell me what I've done! please Omi-kun!" His eyes searched mine, looking for answers, and for a second, I was tempted to tell him.

" I" I took a breath. He should never know. I don't want to ruin what we've got.  " I promise I wasn't avoiding you intentionally, and I didn't even see it was you until you called out earlier"

Lies, more lies. Of course I knew it was you. I would always recognize you.

" Fine. If you say so. But you better not avoid me tomorrow! " Even I wanted to, I wouldn't be able to avoid you. I would always come back. I had realized that earlier in the day. 

" As I told you, I wasn't avoiding you, and I won't tomorrow."

He let go of my, and I felt his warmth leave me.

" Ok, goodnight Omi..."

My nickname rang in my ears.

" Goodnight"

I woke up and saw the light though my curtains. It was still quite early. I took a shower and got out. On my way to the kitchen, I heard Atsumu and Hinata in the middle of a conversation. I was still feeling uneasy talking to him, but I couldn't do anything about it. 

"......you're sure you don't like him?"

" I don't know. How am I supposed to know? Agh"

He then saw me and blushed in a deep shade of red, embarrassed. 

" M-morning?" 

" Um, hi. I hope I didn't interrupt you  two" I awkwardly scratched  my neck, looking away. When I did, I noticed his messy hair, and his his oversize white T-shirt, making him look... hot. I felt my own cheeks warm up, but I had my mask on. So I looked away again and turned to Hinata.

" What are you two doing up this early?" 

" I was going to go for a run" Before I could say anything else, he dashed away, wanting to leave the awkward tension of the room. 

...

" So... You like someone?" I asked him curious and sad.

" You heard that?!" He covered his mouth with his hand.

" It would be weird not to when you two are the only ones down here. And that Hinata was squealing like one of your fan girls" I answered, still a little irritated from yesterday. 

" Ouch. You shouldn't say that"

" So? Is it someone from the team? It's a him no? " I had no idea why I kept asking. 

" Yes, no, maybe?"

" Yes no maybe?"

" Um, yeah" He paused and looked away, as I felt my heart tighten. 

" Who is it?" I didn't want to know

" Not telling you" I felt a little hope, that soon faded away. ' There's no way he likes me '   Not feeling in the mood to eat anymore, I proposed him to practice for a bit, wanting to distract myself.

  This is as close as I could ever be to him...
