Lead Wings | Ushijima Wakatoshi x Reader

𝖈𝖍𝖆𝖕𝖙𝖊𝖗 𝖘𝖊𝖛𝖊𝖓𝖙𝖊𝖊𝖓

You wake up with a hammering headache. Do you have practice today? You don't know and you don't care. There's no way in hell you are getting out of bed too soon. Everything in your body hurts. You roll around, as the sun coming through your window is making your tired eyes hurt.

Peace and quiet settle in your own little apartment. Until you hear loud noises coming from your kitchen. Your brush it off at first, thinking that 'it's just Bokuto or Kuroo', but then you stand up immediately, remembering that 'I live alone!'

You get up from the bed, even though your head is killing you. Did you left your front door open last night? Wait, how did you get home in the first place? You remember drinking your sorrows at the bar and then Yami came... Oh, fuck... Oh, God, please no...

You look down at yourself, finding a T-shirt that's way too big to be yours covering you. You notice that you still have your bra on, and your underwear too. Bringing the material to your nose, you smell the only scent that makes you feel at ease and your heart skips a beat. 'It's Wakatoshi's'.

You remember vaguely that Ushijima took you home, helped you removed your makeup and then... and then what? What caused you to remove your own shirt? Embarrassment starts building up in your chest. And if the person that is in your apartment is none other than the man in question, you prefer throwing yourself out of the window than facing him.

You tip-toe to your bedroom's door, open it gently not to alarm them, and in the same manner you make your way to the kitchen. And there he is, back turned to you, working your stove. The smell of fresh cooked food invades your nose and it makes your stomach growl. You decide that it's better to go back in bed, pretend to still be sleeping and then come out to eat after he leaves.

"I know that you are awake," you swear that his baritone voice makes the walls tremble. Being caught, you have no choice but to come out and face him once and for all. You need to put an end to this anyway. "Sit down, lunch will be ready soon," he informs you.

"Wait, lunch? What time is it?" You look at the clock on your wall. One in the afternoon. "Why did you let me sleep so much?!" You ask, though it's not his fault.

"You looked like you needed some rest," he turns off the stove and sets the food in front of you. All this time, he has not even once looked at you. It makes you wonder if you said something weird to him last night. You notice that he also has different clothes on.

"You are not going to eat?" You ask, as he sits down across from you.

"No, I ate before coming here. I have read that eggs and tea are really good for curing a hangover so make sure to finish all of that," of course, he has to be fucking perfect. And that makes you fall for him even more. You eat in silence, in an awkward silence. Ushijima texts someone as you can hear the sound of his keyboard and then gets up to start washing the dishes. You finish your meal quickly and wait for him to say something, but he doesn't. So, once again, you are the one that has to break the ice.

"Did I... say something to you last night?"

"What do you mean?" He takes your plate and washes it and then puts it in the drier. You wrap your hands around your tea cup, looking at your reflection in the warm liquid.

"You seem tense and-and I'm wearing your T-shirt for some reason. I don't remember much from last night so..." you trail off. He sits back at the table, but this time, he takes the chair next to you.

"You said a lot of things last night," he states simply.

"Oh, God... I will regret asking this, but can you please tell me?" He nods.

To the embarrassing moments that are about to be described, cheers!

"I went to look for you and found you at the bar. Your former boyfriend was there with you. You were also mad at me for some reason and even told me to go fuck myself. He started touching you so I almost hit him and then took you out from there"
