Our Withered Daisy {A Kotaro Bokuto X Female Reader}

Childish Moments {4}

"Y/n! Come in! Come in!" the woman said. "Thank you for having me Mrs. Bokuto," I said with a bow before taking my shoes off and putting on the slippers she has set out. "Oh! I just want to get to know you and this is a makeup for having Kotaro impose on you like that. And please, call me Sachiko!" his mother said. I nodded. "Anywho, we're going to have some Nikujaga for dinner today! I hope that's alright with you y/n," Sachiko stated. I see where Bokuto got his energy from. "Anything would be lovely Sachiko, thank you," I said as I followed Bokuto to the corner of the kitchen.

"You guys can just go do whatever, I'll call for you when it's ready," she said as she busied herself with the meal. "Are you sure you wouldn't like any help?" I asked. "Yes! I want you two to have some quality time together out of school!" she said. I nodded and turned to Bokuto. "So what shall we do?" I asked. He just walked up a set of stairs and made his way over to a room, presumably his.

His room is cozy, I like it. He flopped onto the bed and closed his eyes. "Bokuto, you should take a shower before you dirty your bed sheets," I said as I pulled him up. He glanced at me. "Okay, wait right here," he said as he walked into the bathroom. I immediately stood up and walked back down the stairs.

"Sachiko, I got Bokuto to take a shower so I'm free for anything you need," I said to the woman. "You got him to shower? That's impressive! He usually waits until after dinner to do that. If you could peel these potatoes that'd be great," she said as she moved aside to reveal a pile of potatoes for the nikujaga. I nodded and made my way over, my hands peeling away the potato skin quickly.

"Hey Y/n! I told you to wait in my room for me," the boy whined as he walked down the stairs with wet hair. He looks cute with his hair down. "I just thought I might as well make myself useful and help your mother in the kitchen, that's all," I responded as I pulled the meal off the stove and unwrapped it. "It's finished, but it should probably cool down for a few minutes. Bokuto would you be so kind as to help me set the table?" I asked. The boy nodded and pulled out the plates and such.

"I don't know what it is about you, but Ko just listens to you! It's amazing!" Sachiko commented as she stuffed her face. Bokuto was on his third serving and he seemed to consumed in the food to notice the conversation. "Ko slow down or you're going to go into another food coma!" Sachiko said to the boy. He looked over to me. "But I don't wanna," he said through the food in his mouth. "Bokuto...." I said with a glare. He quickly swallowed his food and pushed his plate away. "I think I'm full," he said as he glanced between me and his mother.

I stood up and took his and my plates and quickly washed them. "Are you done Sachiko?" I asked as I put the leftovers into a tub. "Yes, but you don't have to do that! You're my guest! Go hang out with Ko while I finish up here!" she said as she ushered me out of the kitchen.

Bokuto took the lead and we walked back up to his room.

"Here, put this on, I don't want you to wear your uniform that long, it's gotta be uncomfortable," he said as he handed me a shirt and a pair of boxers. I walked into the bathroom and slid off my uniform. I pulled the boxers over top of my underwear and the shirt over top of my bra. His shirt is so big on me. I look like a child. I walked out of the bathroom and placed my uniform by the door so I wouldn't forget it.

"We have about...... two and a half hours until ten. Wanna watch another horror movie?" he suggested as he picked up the remote and clicked on the television. "Wanna watch Suicide Club?" he asked after I nodded.

The gruesome, detailed horror of the scenes had me doing the same thing I did last time. I was currently tucked in between Bokuto's legs, with his arms gently wrapped around my waist. I shuddered as another appalling scene came onto the screen. I hid under the blanket that was on top of us and closed my eyes. "If you dislike horror movies so much why do you keep watching them with me?" he whispered into my ear. "Bec-because after I've gone through the scary p-parts......it's funny to remember my reactions," I mumbled back. He just nodded and wrapped his arms around me tighter, placing his head on my shoulder.

When the movie ended, it was a quarter past nine. "Excuse me, I need to use the bathroom......can you wait right outside the door..." I asked with a fearful face. I'm never able to use the bathroom after I watch horror movies. Too scared to walk in there alone. He nodded. I walked into the bathroom before closing the door. I felt as he laid against it, probably too tired to stand.

As I finished up, I walked out of the bathroom and turned to him. "Hey Bokuto, you look tired you should go to sleep. I'll walk home by myself and you can sleep, okay?" I said to the half-lidded boy. "No, I have to walk you home incase something happens so I can protect you," he murmured as he stood up. I just nodded. "I'll return your clothes to you tomorrow after school. I'll drop them off," I said as I picked up my uniform. "Oh yeah! Hold on, I have your brother's clothes cleaned and ready to go," he said as he picked up a plastic bag that seemingly contained clothes. He handed that bag to me. "Thanks, we should get going," I said as I turned and walked down the stairs. "It was a lovely evening Sachiko. Thank you for having me, but I must get back now," I said with a bow as I turned to my shoes and slid them on. "It was a lovely evening indeed! I hope to have you over again some other time! Ko walk her home please," she said as she turned around and mossled off to do something else.

As we walked back to my house, I got the chills. I was only wearing a t-shirt, so it makes sense. Bokuto is wearing a zip-up hoodie, so he seems fine. I began to take out my school jacket before I felt a body pressed against my back. I turned my head to see that Bokuto had unzipped his jacket to encase both of us in it. "Bokuto what are you doing?" I asked as he turned his away, probably hiding a red flush. "I have to make sure you're warm, and call me Kotaro," he said as he turned back to be only to have his head towering. "But Kotaro is your first name?" I asked. Usually only people that are close use first names. Then again, I am calling his mother by her first name. "Well.....I call you y/n and that's your first name, so call me Kotaro......or even better call me by my nickname, Ko," he said as we continued walking.

"Okay B- Ko, It's time for s to part, have a nice night and make sure you get some sleep," I said as I rushed into my own house and closed the door.

"That was so.....close! He had- I don-...........too much..." I sighed as I locked myself in my room and flopped onto my bed. I pulled my knees into my chest and wiggled around. I may be composed most of the time, but I still have my moments I guess. I released a giggle and shoved my face into my pillow. I soon fell asleep to the thoughts of a certain owl-like boy.
