Kuroo leaned closer. A literal inch was the distance of their faces. All he could do was avert his away and move his face to the side, but it made it worse because Tsukishima could feel the Kuroo's soft breathing near his cheeks.

"Well?" Kuroo's voice slightly hummed.

"...not doing it again.."

"Hmm?" Kuroo pressed his lips near Tsukishima's ear.

His breathing sent shivers down Tsukishima's spine. He couldn't help but shut his eyes tight because it was tickling him.

"I'm not doing it again..." The words that came out from Tsukishima's mouth almost breathily.

Kuroo's other hand moved and reached out to his face. Tsukishima's heart was hammering loudly inside his chest that it could almost jump out of his ribcage. The way how Kuroo touched his face was extremely delicate, the man's hand resting on the side of his cheek.

"Too late..." Kuroo said in an almost teasing tone.

A gasp escaped from Tsukishima's lips when Kuroo dipped down to kiss him. The kiss was slow and chaste. Kuroo's lips felt feathery light over his, that he couldn't help closing his eyes and leaning in. He was suddenly reminded of the kiss they shared at the countryside, which was hot and sloppy unlike this one.

Kuroo moved slowly trying to make him part his mouth. When Tsukishima tried to give him access, the kiss turned deep and he could feel Kuroo's tongue slightly graze his lower lip. It sent thousands of shivers down his spine. Another gasp escaped from his mouth when he felt Kuroo suck on his lower lip for a second.

His finger twitched as he tried to control himself not to reach for Kuroo's hair and run through it as they kiss. He's not going to lie, but god, it feels so good. The way how Kuroo kisses him this way is making his body heat up. In fact, it already feels like his body is burning as Kuroo moves passionately leaving soft kisses on his chin, now moving back to his lips.

Kuroo gave him soft, butterfly kisses on his mouth before the man pulled away. Tsukishima slowly opened his eyes, and looked at Kuroo who was wiping his lower lip with his thumb. It seems that

"Strawberry never tasted this good," Kuroo said with a slight smirk on his lips.

His statement made Tsukishima blush profusely. The heat traveled from his face down to his neck and ears, he looked like a tomato. His mouth kept on opening and closing trying to find the right words to say at Kuroo but none came to mind.

"Just so you know, I'm not going to apologize Tsukishima." Kuroo's smirk turned into something more devilish.

"Y-You're annoying!" was the only words he could say.

What a fucking lame comeback. Tsukishima kept on internally screaming, processing, and replaying the scene that happened a few moments ago. He heard Kuroo walk back to his desk while he was left dumbfounded staring into blank space.

He should be angry about what happened right? Tsukishima can trash his office if he wanted to, be angry if he wanted to. But the weird thing is, his heart won't stop beating like there is a damned festival happening inside him. His insides kept fluttering, and he doesn't know what to do to calm himself down.

After a few minutes of deafening silence and staring off into space, he felt like he was pulled back into reality when Kuroo spoke.

"Are you done?"

He craned his head to Kuroo's direction. Tsukishima's face seemed devoid of any emotion except the still dumbfounded face he had. He could only nod as a reply, but he then blinked at the sight of Kuroo wearing an unfamiliar reaction of his face.
