27 May/ 8:45 am/School
Teacher:,, Well then children, have you managed to do the project?''
Most of the class:,, Yes..''
Teacher:,, Let's hear it then!''
The groups started talking until it was Bokuto and Akaashi's turn.
Bokuto started reading in embarrassment knowing the changes they made after they talked about their feelings.
Bokuto:,, A long time I haven't felt love because I knew there wasn't a person that can love me back for just my personality and after my mom's words: love by force isn't something that good people do, so I left this feeling alone for a long time. After I met Akaa-.. after I met this person I knew that love was a choice for me again. To love and to be loved is the greatest feeling in the world. That's what someone thought me.''
He looked at Akaashi like he knew him for his whole life
Bokuto:,, So that's why I'm not gonna give up on it again. And you shouldn't give up on it either. Because there's love for everybody. Thank you''
Everyone applauded amazed and the quite started when was Akaashi's turn.
Akaashi:,, I know im not the right person to talk about lo- ..about this feeling..''
Bokuto waved like he was saying ,,go on!''
Akaashi:,, But I learned. I learned what's love about. How it's used and even how it felt. All thanks to the right person. Because if it isn't the right person it doesn't feel the same and you remain confused and eventually.. heartbroken.''
Bokuto looked at Akaashi not knowing the whole story.
Akaashi:,, So ..keep going. Love. Experiment it. But don't do it in a way you hurt others or even...yourself. Cause our hearts are the most precious treasure we have.''
Bokuto is proud. You can see it on his face. So proud he wants to hug Akaashi in front of the whole world and scream from the top of his lungs that he's his. But he knows he has to hold it.
Akaashi put his sheet aside and spoke from his heart.
Akaashi:,, At first I didn't want to do this project because I knew it would bring up memories and it'll hurt...but doing it with a kind person like Bokuto didn't seem so bad after all and I developed interest in this feeling. I still have much to learn but I know I won't be alone this time so it's ok. Because it's with someone I know and even...love''
Bokuto looked amazed. He liked being loved by aperson who didn't know for long what love meant but he knew he can teach himeverything.
Akaashi:,, Thank you..''
The class is quiet. Not even a paper rustling.
Akaashi was scared but for the first time in his life he was proud of himself and he didn't care what the others have to say.
Then in that moment of thinking the class went nuts. They applauded like crazy
The teacher's eyes were watery. He gave this project his whole life of a teacher but it was the first time students touched his weak spot.
Teacher:,, Congratulations!''
He applauded.
Akaashi was amazed but very, very happy.
27 May/ 6:30 pm/ End of schoolday
Akaashi invited Bokuto In his house again to talk about the whole ,,afterlife'' thing
On the way to his house Bokuto was quite all the time, thinking.
Akaashi noticed and asked:
,,Are you ok?''
Bokuto remained quite.
Akaashi was a bit pissed.
Akaashi:,, Bokuto answer me. Are you mad about something?''
Bokuto almost crying:,, Why didn't you tell me you had a boyfriend before.''
He looked at Akaashi.
Bokuto:,, Did that son of a bitch beat you?''
Akaashi was a bit surprised and hurt to remember the old times but he answered anyway
Akaashi:,, No but he did hurt me inside..''
Bokuto felt incredibly sorry for bringing it up
Bokuto:,, I'm sorry..''
Akaashi:,, It's ok..''
They arrived home. Silence dominated. Until Bokuto took his courage to talk
Bokuto:,, You know I'm not like that, right?''
Akaashi surprised almost yelling said:
,,Yes Bokuto I know! But it still hurts you know..?''
Bokuto felt sorry. He hugged Akaashi tighter the he ever hugged his mother.
Bokuto:,, I'll never do that.'' He said crying
Akaashi was hugged by surprise. That was the best feeling he ever felt.
Akaashi:,, I know.'' He said joining Bokuto.
