Akaashi was frustrated. You and him had been arguing about spending time together and prioritizing one another. You couldn't even bear staying in the same room at the same time. Akaashi took the master bedroom while you refused to leave the office room.

"I'm sorry I can't prioritize your needs when we have bills to pay Y/n," You recalled his words. "It seems like I'm the only damn person paying bills here. Now leave me alone while I work would you?"

It wasn't like you two to sleep separately. Every night felt off whenever you slept in different places. What was even weirder was sleeping in different places but the same house. You stuck to your guns though, not giving in until Akaashi apologized for saying such harsh things.

Akaashi not knowing what to do was unnecessary aggressive when getting ready for bed. He slammed his drawer causing the photo on top to fall. The glass breaks with the frame face down. "Fuck," He mumbled. He bent down to clean it up and lifted the frame. He discovered a folded up letter behind the photo.

He picks up both the photo and the unknown letter. The photo was of you two the day he proposed. The letter however, was new to him. He opened the trifold to discover the letter addressed to him.

Dear Keiji,

If you found this, we either broke the frame or you wanted to change the photo. Either way if you find this, I want to let you know how much you mean to me.

I remember when we first met. I came to your volleyball practice looking for Konoha since he forgot his notebook in class. You were setting but when I came in you were distracted and the ball hit you straight in your face. I'm sorry for laughing at the time but you were too cute when you are embarrassed. You and I started talking after Konoha tried setting us up and failing. I'm so glad you weren't annoyed with my persistent self. I just really liked you, thankfully you liked me back.

Then our first date at the park! What a day right? We were sitting by the pond then a bird came by and you said it reminded you of Bo. It was such a fun day and I'm so happy we always go the park every year.

Our first kiss, it was at the lantern festival. You were holding my hand as we waited to let go of our lanterns. Then when the time came, we let go of the lights, you grabbed me a kissed me. I asked you what your wish was on the lantern. You said "happiness for the both of us."

Remember when you asked me to be yours officially? You were so nervous the box of chocolates fell out of your sweaty palms. It was so cute! But you made up for it by taking us out to eat at our favorite restaurant.

I don't think I ever told you when I fell in love with you. It was when we were on the flight home from Korea. After having our first little vacation together, you'd fallen asleep with your hand on mine. I just saw how peaceful you looked and it clicked. I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you. I wanted to be beside you as you slept and be there when you woke up.

Then, you proposed. You proposed! God, I was over the moon. You organized everything, from the spot at the pond to the floating lanterns. I can't believe I'm spending the rest of my life with you Keiji. You mean so much to me. I can't wait to marry you and grow old with you. Maybe even start a little family together!

Anyways, if this frame is broken, don't cut yourself. There's a replacement one in the office. And I hope by the time you read this we're finally married. Hopefully we're not broken up otherwise I feel bad you read through all this.

I love you Keiji. I will love you every single day of my life. Hell, you could break my heart into a million pieces and I'll still love you. Thank you for being my best friend, my love, my world.

Y/n <3

Akaashi was tearing up at the letter. He didn't know you remembered everything. He put the letter down on his drawer and stepped over the broken glass to exit the bedroom. He walked down the hall to your shared office and hesitated to open the door. He shook his head and took a deep breath before entering.

You weren't asleep but you laid on the sofa facing away from the door. Akaashi walked over and kneeled beside you. He placed his hand on your shoulder but slowly removed it.

"I'm sorry for yelling," He says. "You don't deserve that, you're right. I work too much and I'm always distant. You deserve better, I should do better. I'm sorry baby, I am."

You remained quiet for a moment. "I love you, Y/n," He says.

You were tearing up but regardless of that, you flipped over to meet his eyes. "Promise you won't yell at me again?" You whispered.

"I promise," Akaashi wiped away the tears on your cheeks.

You sat up and lightly punched his shoulder. "That's for being a dope and hurting my feelings," You sniffled.

"Come to bed with me now?" He asked.

You nodded and the two of you walked to your bedroom. Almost immediately you spotted the broken frame on the floor. "Oh, yea, I forgot about that," Akaashi sighed.

"At least clean up before you come apologize," You joked. You looked over and saw your letter to him on the table. "Oh, did you read it?"

"Yes I did," He pecked your cheek and walked to the closet and found the replacement frame at the bottom corner. He hands you the frame before going to grab the vaccum. You fixed the photo of yourself but before you could hide the letter again Akaashi snatched it out of your hand. "I'm framing this above my desk," Akaashi smiled.

"Wait why?" You chuckled.

"Because usually I write you love letters, and this is the only one I've gotten from you," Akaashi smiled.

"Actually baby," You walked over to him and pecked his cheek. "I hid a bunch more, you just gotta find them."

Akaashi tried to stop you but you already made it into the bed and snuggled in the sheets. You opened your hands and reached out for your fiancé to come to bed. He plants a soft kiss on your lips before settling into bed. "Goodnight my love," He says. "I love you everyday."
