i shifted again today and at the first breaktime bokuto came to my class and took my arm in a rush, i laughed as he cheerfully and proudly showed me around fukurodani, to be honest i'm a little surprised he remembered our conversation yesterday about a tour around the school. knowing that i'm important enough for him to remember something as simple as that makes me feel warm and happy, i smiled at the thought and continued listening to bokuto as we walked around the hallway. soon enough we reached back at our starting point, indicating we've finished walking around the school.
"and that's the end of the tour!" bokuto cheered as we walked back in my classroom.
"thank you for the tour bokuto! i never realised fukurodani was this big!" i exclaimed.
bokuto laughed. "yeah it is really big! most people tend to say that when they first get here" he continued.
"oh bokuto, where's akaashi?" i asked, seeing that akaashi wasn't in his seat.
"he's at the gym, we have volleyball practice there, oh speaking of which" he paused. "are you interested in joining a club?" he asked.
"well.. i'm quite interested in joining the art club!" i answered.
"really? i didn't know you like to draw (___)-chan! can you draw me something?" he asked cheerfully. "since you're my friend you wouldn't mind drawing me something right?"
i would do that in a heartbeat bokuto, but i couldn't just say that.
"yes of course! anything for a friend" i said as i smiled at him. "are you going to volleyball practice now?"
"yes! would you.. want to come watch?" he asked shyly as his ears turn slightly red. "i know you can't go now because you have class but would you want to come watch after school?" i could see from his actions he's hoping i would come watch, his put his hand on the back of his head as he looked at me with a gentle smile.
i laughed, trying to calm my slightly raising heart beat. "of course! i would love to!"

i walked towards the gym as i see bokuto doing an amazing cross spike, his teammates cheered as they won the third set. i took a seat at a bench next to some of the first year players, i greeted them with a smile as they greeted me back shyly. do i look intimidating? i hope not.
they played another round, i know i've seen them play when i was watching them in the anime but seeing them do this in real life feels amazing, i may not know what they're thinking cause well, they're not saying it out loud like in the anime but, seeing their face expressions while they practice is enough to show how passionate they are.
"bokuto-san!" akaashi yelled out suddenly.
"akaashi.. how do you do a cross spike again..?" bokuto said as his spiky hair started to lower, indicating he's in his emo mode. ah.. it seems like his teammates already know what's coming.
"bokuto-san look! (___)-san is watching and cheering you on from the bench!" akaashi yelled out as he pointed towards me, bokuto immediately turned towards me and as a reaction i smiled and yelled out,
"you're amazing bokuto!"
his face turned red as he beamed a bright smile, he immediately cheered up and they continued playing, bokuto played well and they quickly won again. as the opposing team from another school left the gym bokuto happily walked towards me with a wide grin.
"did i do amazing?! you saw how good i played right?! right?!" he yelled out excitedly, i immediately laughed and calmly smiled.
"of course you did amazing! you're always amazing" i said as my face became warm, i shyly looked away and glanced towards bokuto. his face was bright red as he turned towards multiple directions, thinking of what to say. "sorry! i made it awkward didn't i..?"
"no no (___)-san it's not that! it's just.." he looked towards me and lowered himself so he's face to face to me, as i was still sitting on the bench. "i've never heard such a genuine compliment from a friend before" he smiled.
"but.. people surely must've complimented you! like your teammates perhaps? akaashi?" i asked, i turned towards him trying to read his expression, he still has a smile on his face but i can tell it might be a bittersweet smile.
"i suppose, they have complimented me, but only when i'm upset though" he said, laughing. "i know they mean well but i don't feel as if their compliments genuinely came from their heart, meanwhile you (___)-chan" he paused as he gently took both of my hands and held them on his. "i'm sure.. wait, i know,
you meant what you said"
