You gave her your sweater, it's just polyester

"Koemi." Bokuto called making me hum "Akaashi and Heather are coming over is it alright?" He asked while Kuroo tensed

"Yeah of course!" I smiled placing a strand of hair behind my ear

"Are you sure baby cakes?" Kuroo asked me and I nodded

"Could we go to the mall today then? I just want to buy some new clothes." I asked

"Yes." Kuroo poked my side "C'mon I have to buy hoodies, and I'll give you another one." He smiled at me

"I'll tell them to meet with us there." Bokuto mumbled looking at his phone

We proceded to change clothes quickly, I placed on some long jeans with a white turtleneck and a belt. The black hoodie Kuroo had given me was placed over everything. I placed my black snow boots on with my coat over the hoodie and decided to wait outside for the boys.  The day was really pretty as the snow slowly melted. The blue sky was bright and had a mix with pink. The boys walked outside joking about something making me smile. We walked over to Kuroo's car and made our way to the mall. Bokuto had been so cautious with me and Akaashi since last night making me feel horrible. I wanted to forget yesterday completely and I needed them to go back to normal. I left my coat in the car trusting my hoodie with the warmth. Bokuto offered his arm looping my arm through his. He called Akaashi telling him to meet us in the main entrance. My eyes fell on the known sweater that the blonde was wearing. Bokuto coughed awkwardly while I ignored the hurt pulsing in my chest. We can play at this game.

"Hey Heather, Keiji." I smiled hugging her tightly

"Hey Koemi, how are you feeling?" She gushed

"I'm perfect and you?" I smiled widely

"I'm good." She smiled back at me "The poor boys." She giggled and I nodded

"They are in for a long day." I smiled looping our arms

"Don't get me wrong I don't mind shopping." Kuroo smiled placing his arm over my shoulder

"Let's go." Heather said leaving Bokuto and Akaashi in the back

Heather didn't leave my side and to just bother Akaashi I didn't leave hers. We walked into every single store in the mall. Kuroo laughed and joked with us while the other two just walked behind us. Heather ended up buying some matching socks for our games making me laugh at her idea. Decided to change my style a bit and start dressing to my body and not just hide it because of insecurities. I had to learn how to love myself even if the boy I liked doesn't love me. Kuroo bought some matching hoodies for us making me warm inside, and more hoodies for him and Kenma. Shopping made me feel something again, I felt happiness and I forgot everything.  We walked around for a bit Bokuto now joining in our jokes and laughter. We decided to go to a restaurant and eat something, so I didn't have to cook.

"Koemi how long have you and Kuroo been together?" Heather asked making me spit out my water

"What?" Akaashi asked lowly

"Wait." Kuroo mumbled chuckling

"Me and Tetsurō?" I asked laughing

"No." Kuroo chuckled

"Never." I laughed harder at her red face

"Oh my I'm so sorry." She gushed I wiped off my tears

"Don't worry Heather." Kuroo looked down shaking his head chuckling

"Is that you seem so close." She tried to explain

"Kuroo will always stay in the friend zone though." Akaashi smirked resting his back against the chair
