Your Saviour. - ITZY Lia x Male Reader

[19] Kicks and joy! Meeting The Chois!

"I'll start now. You can go and do your workout as well." I said then we both started stretching.

I started to drift into my workout mode after running at the treadmill. I then turned my attention to the weights for a bit of a muscle workout.

LIA POV

I was doing my abs workout when I saw Y/N started lifting weights. Every curl of his arm my eyebrow raise noticing his arm's veins popping out. With me losing focus of my surrounding I accidentally kicked my water container and it made a lot of noise.

"Lia! Are you okay? Did you get hurt?" Y/N said dropping the weights and immediately running towards me with a genuine look of worry in his eyes.

"A-... I-I'm okay. I didn't noticed the water. I'm really sorry. I'm fine. Y-you can go back to working out now." He sighs in relief. 'He looks so cute when he's worried.' I thought to myself. I smile to him and he gave me a chuckle.

We then return to what we are doing, actually with me just staring at him while he puts in boxing gloves and starts to hit the heavy bag. I can feel his power with every punch and kicks he does to the heavy bag as it sways a long with him. Then I started noticing how each strikes he does grows more and more louder. Is he... is he frustrated? I tried to look at his eyes and I can see that he's actually not looking. His eyes were closed and he looks angry. 

"Y-y/n?" I tried calling to him but he didn't hear my voice due to the sounds of his strikes.

"Aw!" I pretended I was hurt and he immediately stopped at run towards me.

"Lia! What happened?!" He asked as I hold my ankle pretending it was hurt.

"Did you twist it? I'll grab some ice. Don't put pressure on it." He said running to the back of the gym. I couldn't help but admire how worried he was. 

He came back with a ice bag as well as a some kind of cream. He started applying it then putting the ice bag. 

"Hold it gently. I'm really sorry. I didn't pay attention to you. Are you okay?" He asked still holding my hand to guide me while holding the ice bag.

"Y-yeah, actually I wanted to ask you if you're okay? You seemed irritated earlier." His eyebrows raised and then he lowered his head.

"Y-yeah. T-there just a lot of things going in my mind." He replied.

"You can tell me anything, you know that right?" I said and he lifted his head and gave me a smile.

"It's just that, I'm worried, a lot, with Coach Katie and coach kim, they haven't replied to me yet and of course I trust them when they told me that they will be alright but I just... what if they? I can't forgive myself. I should've just taken the lost." He said while punching the floor ligthly.

"You did what you should've done. I know that it is what they wanted as well so there's no point of blaming yourself." I grab his hand and gave it a soft squeeze. His finger intertwined with mine and I couldn't help but blush.

After a few seconds we both let go. "I think I'm okay now. Look!" I said pretending to tap dance. He chuckled and stood up.

"Do you want to learn how to kick properly?" He said.

"Eh?!" I replied in shock.

"I mean, I'm finished with my workout and just to pass the time?" I nodded enthusiastically.

Y/N POV

After Lia agreed I immediately put on a shin guard on her leg. I can see her a little worried but I assure her that it wont hurt because of the guard.
