Daichi POV

After that whole breakfast fiasco, Suga and I had to finish up the food. I'm actually kinda glad. We got to just talk and hang out, which I always enjoy. But today I finally asked him to go on a hike with me this afternoon. He said yes of course so now I just have to wait. Although all the things they said point to Suga liking me back, I still can't help but have doubt. He might like me but he might not want to date me and who knows. Maybe he doesn't even like me.

"Daichi?"

"Hmm?" I snap back into it to find Suga standing in front of me meeting my eyes.

"Are you ok? You don't seem here?"

"Oh yeah. I'm fine. Sorry just spaced. I'm here, don't worry." He smiles at me and goes back to getting out the dishes.

As breakfast begins, the stress of telling him just becomes more intense so I try to distract myself and look around at all the groups. Not much as changed. Though, Kageyama and Hinata aren't sitting together which is weird. They seem distant with each other. I really hope nothing's going on with them. I can't handle that.

Then Iwa and Oikawa seem...closer? I guess. There's just something about them right now. Happier? Just more relaxed and they are definitely being closer than usual.

"Daichi!" I snap out of it and again and look next to me and at Suga. "What's going on?"

"Nothing."

"You said you wouldn't push me away anymore." He looks a little hurt which is the last thing I want. Especially today.

"You're right sorry. I'm really ok though. I've just been thinking about something. I'll tell you about it later. Ok?" He sighs and smiles, nodding up at me. I relax slightly and look over at Kuroo who grins at me. I roll my eyes and go back to eating.

———————————————————————

For the rest of the morning, I hang out in the living room with Kuroo, Oikawa, and Bokuto. We are all just sitting and talking about our teams, and how being a captain works at all the schools. We've all concluded that Akaashi does all of the captain's work. Bokuto's just the face but it works out perfectly. Akaashi doesn't seem like the kind of guy who enjoys the spotlight. Bokuto on the other hand loves it.

"Hey what time is it?"

"It's almost 11:30. Why?"

"Oh, Suga and I are going on a hike at 12:30."

"Wait, you're doing it today?" Oikawa asks.

"Doing what?"

"Oh yeah, you weren't here last time. Daichi is confessing to Suga today."

"What! Finally! You really took your sweet time with that one huh Daichi?"

"Yeah yeah, I know ok. I'm doing it now and that's all that matters."

"Sure sure. But still." I roll my eyes and sigh looking at Oikawa who is smiling to himself.

"Oikawa you sure have been happy lately," Kuroo says grinning. He snaps out of it and reddens a bit.

"Yeah? So what?"

"Something happened?"

"No! Nothing happened! Everything's fine! Normal!"

"Ok well now I know somethings up."

"What!"

"You didn't have to get so defensive." He pouts and I chuckle.
