Can We Keep It Together {Haikyuu Fanfic}

Chapter 23 ~ Falling Apart

Suga POV

"I like you..." that's when everything stopped. Went silent. The only thing I could see was Daichi and the only thing I could hear was my heartbeat rise. Did he really just? I can't think, can't breathe. Can't speak. Oh god say something. Say anything.

"I-I..." I breathe out, not taking my eyes off him. Daichi just smiles at me.

"Sorry I kind of just sprung this on you." I exhale lightly, finally being able to process it.

"Are you serious? Like no joke?"

"Suga I wouldn't joke about this." I sigh and smile.

"I like you too."

"Yeah I know."

"What!" I yell suddenly being taken back by his comment. He just laughs.

"I had some help but I figured it out a few days ago." I relax slightly.

"Why did you wait to tell me then." He shrugs.

"Wanted it to be special. Memorable." He turns and looks at the waterfall. That's when I remember where we are.

"It is." He tightens his grip on my hand and I turn back to face him. He's closer now. And his face is a little red. My breath catches as he slowly moves in, connecting our lips in a soft kiss. Short and sweet and everything I could have dreamed of. He pulls back and I grin before leaning back in to continue the kiss. That's soft and amazing. Something I've always wanted to do with him. Finally, I'm here. Kissing him. He tilts his head deepening the kiss slightly. I wrap my arms around his neck while our feet still dangle in the small pool.

After kissing for a while I pull back slightly, needing to catch my breath. I open my eyes and see Daichi smiling at me. I sigh and he embraces me in a tight hug.

"Suga?" He whispers while I bury my head in his chest, listening to his heartbeat and soft breathing. "I want us to be together." I smile at the thought and nod against him.

"I want to be together too."

"Really?" I pull away and look at him again.

"Yes." I nod and he smiles at me bringing me back in for a quick kiss. I sigh and look back at the waterfall, leaning my head against Daichi.

"Do you want to finish the hike or just stay here?"

"Let's just stay here. I like it." He brings his hand to my waist and pulls me closer.

"Ok."

Kenma POV

"He hates me." Shoyo collapses in front of me on the bed. I sigh and put my game away giving my full attention.

"This is all my fault. I'm so sorry." He sits up and gives me a weak smile. He seems so wrecked and in so much pain. I hate it.

"It's not your fault. It was just an accident." I sigh and nod. "Besides he didn't avoid me after he knew anyway. Only after we kissed, god why did I do that!!"

"Didn't he kiss you."

"Yes, but after he kissed me I kissed him, and then he just stopped talking to me. He won't even stay in the same room as me anymore." He's getting more and more distressed and I can see tears welling up in his eyes. "I'm so stupid to think he would like me back. He was probably just experimenting. Why would he want to date a small pathetic loser." His voice breaks and tears slowly start to stream down his face until he is completely sobbing.
