a/n: sorry i haven't updated in a little bit, i hope this chapter makes up for it.

akaashi's phone

koushi sugawara:

hi, this is suga! is this akaashi? 

me

yes, this is akaashi. hello sugawara.

koushi sugawara

call me suga! kōtarō told me you were interested in a position at our shelter? 

me

yes, i am

koushi sugawara

well, i hasn't previously thought of hiring anyone, but kōtarō said having bother employee would be helpful, and you seem mature, which would be helpful, since kōtarō is not.

sadly, i can't afford to pay much over minimum wage, so your salary would probably only be about 1000 yen per hour.

me

that's alright. when should i start?

koushi sugawara

is tomorrow okay?

me

yes. see you then.

koushi sugawara

see you!

i exited out of my phone with a small smile on my face. now i had a cover for kenma. i pulled his contact up on my phone and typed out a message. 'hey. wanna come visit me at the shelter in two days, on tuesday?' 

i sat down on my couch, and my stomach grumbled. i debated whether to eat or not. thinking back over the past two days, i had only had about 1,800 calories. i was probably fine, as long as i had something small.

as i grabbed an apple and started to cut it, i heard a 'ding' from my pocket. pulling out my phone, i clicked on the message, guessing that it was kenma's response, but it was bokuto.

bokuto

hi akaashi! this is bokuto! i was wondering if you wanted to come out for ice cream with me and some of my friends?

i pondered this, deciding after a few seconds that getting to know him would be a good idea. besides, he was really cute, and i wouldn't mind hanging out with him.

me

sure. when are you going out? and what friends are coming?

bokuto

does is three hours, at two, sound good? and i have two friends coming, terushima and kuroo. you could bring someone if you want!

me

yes, that sounds fine. i'll bring my friend kozume. 

bokuto

cool! see you then!

in the time that we had been texting, kenma had responded, saying that sounded fine. 

kenma

sure.

me

cool. also, would you want to come out for ice cream with my co-worker and some of his friends?

kenma

do i have to?

me

please, kenma. i said i'd bring you. it's at 2. and i know for a fact he has some cute friends.

kenma

ugh. fine.

me

thank you.

i smiled slightly at my phone, and ate my apple, excited to go out for the first time in a while.

a/n p sorry again for not updating! also sorry if this chapter is bad, i'm not great with texting.
