The song finished and I pulled away from Sakusa.

I took his hand and dragged him out of the gym.

"Please tell me that wasn't just a dream," he said as we walked a bit away from the building.

I stopped and turned around before pinching his arm.

"Ow..." He winced.

"D'ya still think yer dreamin'?" I asked sarcastically.

He placed his hands on my waist.

"Not anymore..." He said with a smirk as he pulled me closer.

I felt my face flush.

Sakusa already had a big effect on me.

But now he was dressed as Hades, the Greek god of the underworld, and my word, does it suit him.

His abs were on display and I was probably as red as a tomato the entire time.

And no, that kiss wasn't just a drunken act.

How do I know this?

Well, Sakusa doesn't drink and nor do I.

He leaned down and tipped my chin up with his fingers.

He placed his lips on mine and I instantly melted into the kiss.

It was so soft and gentle.

I wrapped my arms around his neck as his grip tightened around my waist.

We pulled away for air and he moved my hair out of my face.

"You're so beautiful, Atsu," he said.

I felt my face heat up again.

Ah... My first and only crush since high school just kissed me and called me beautiful...

I think I might be the one who's dreaming.

I leaned my head on his chest, feeling his warmth against my skin.

"I've liked ya since high school... Ya know that...?" I said with a small smile on my face, "I don't think I could've gotten through third year without ya..."

He chuckled softly and pressed a soft kiss to the top of my head, "Then you'll probably be glad to know that third year was the best year of my high school life," he replied.

"Mine too, Omi..." I said.

His grip on my waist tightened.

"I missed that name," he chuckled, "You can ask Hinata..."

I snorted, "He told me 'bout yer little outburst already."

We both started laughing, which went on for a good minute before we fell into a comfortable silence.

"Hey, Atsu?"

"Yeah?"

"I know that we only started talking to each other again this year, but... Would you like to maybe go on a date with me sometime?" He asked.

I smiled, "Ya ask that like I'm gonna say no..."

"Well, are you?" He asked.

"Hell no!"

He laughed at my response.

"But can we jus' take it slow? An' can we not tell the team, please?" I asked.
