Just over fourteen days had passed since Sakusa got shot and he's recovering slowly but surely. During his recovery period we have actually spent a lot of time just talking about ourselves. Mainly our interests and things that happen in our childhood. I actually discovered that he played quite a bit of sports in school, yes despite us being in this dangerous business we have all been educated in some way, shape or form. He was well known for his extra bendy wrists and he even showed me, it's so creepy! He can just crunch it all the way forwards and all the way backwards and when I say I curled up into a ball out of pure fear and confusion, I'm not lying. Eventually I got used to it and he even let me shake his wrist around a bit, the movement didn't seem any different from my wrists. I also found out he had met Atsumu whilst they were at school so they've known each other for quite a long time. They weren't the best of friends back then and they may not seem like it now but in truth they are like brothers, just not blood related obviously. You wanna be anymore condescending Y/n? Sorry about that!
Enough about him though cause us women don't chase men. That came outta nowhere! ANYWAY, I told him more about the night of my mother's death and how Tobio has been by my side for as long as I can remember. At the mention of his name though, Sakusa's hands tensed and I asked him what was wrong but he just said he felt a quick and sharp pain. I offered to get him some pain killers but he refused and told me to sit back down, I obeyed cause his voice gets really deep and scary when he's frustrated. Imagine how he would sound in the bed- DO NOT FINISH THAT SENTENCE! I did however, know why his hands were tensing and it's because he was jealous, it's obvious because I've been here long enough to learn their body language. When Sakusa is starting to feel annoyed he often bites down on the inside of his cheek or if he has a bottle of sanitiser in his hand he'll flick the lip open and then close it, over and over again. Atsumu grips his wrists and spins his hands around then, almost like he's trying to give himself a burn but he never actually does. Bokuto's shoulders somehow get even broader and his chest puffs out more, almost like he's trying to intimidate whoever is pissing him off. Finally, Hinata plays with the buttons of his blazer or shirt if they have them on, if not he rolls the hem of his shirt between his index finger and thumb with more and more pressure as the situation gets more heated.
We had a few more conversations but the most memorable to me is probably the story about how he got involved with the Jackals. He told me that in his graduating year of high school he got involved with some dodgy college students who in the end managed to get him kicked out of school and arrested for the possession of drugs and the intention to sell them. He had done a few other petty little crimes but hadn't been caught or charged for them. However, the little crimes gained him quite the reputation in the area and he even caught the attention of a certain mafia leader, strangely enough since there is an extremely rare chance of that happening unless you've been recommended or you're well known. The man bailed him out of prison and took him in as his own, training him almost all day and all night but then treating him every once in a while, making Sakusa feel like he belonged to somewhere and someone again. Not as in like the possession of someone but like he felt secure and that he had somewhere to go if he was in trouble.
"So you just started to ignore your family and friends when you met those idiots?" I was talking about the college students as we were still having this discussion. He was able to sit up now without any help and he didn't show any signs of pain. He nodded and then sighed, clearly not impressed with his younger self's behaviour. "Damn dude you were on a wild one back in the day" we both share a short chuckle and then the room goes silent. A comfortable silence but that's not the point.
I walked over to the double glass doors that led to the balcony and just looked out of them. The sun was at its highest point in the sky and the number of clouds were scarce. It was a beautiful day and the gardener's were out tending to the flowers and bushes, making sure they were all thriving and kept neat and tidy. "How much does it cost to keep the garden the way you want it?"
"Too much" he chuckles again and takes his time getting out of the bed before walking over to me and standing right beside me. He hadn't been out of this room in a couple weeks so he was looking a bit scruffy but it didn't mean he didn't look hot anymore. He had a little stubble growing through and his curly hair was a bit longer than he usually kept it.
I turned to face him and he did the same to me. When we were facing each other I ran my hand through his hair and it felt all knotted and tangled. He was analysing my face as I tried to take my hand back and when I managed to remove it from his hair he questioned me. "What?"
"You need to wash, cut and brush your hair dude" he scoffs and smirks as he walks back over to his bed and lays back down, I follow him and sit in the chair beside the bed. "Get yo stanky ass in the shower" I lightly pinch his arm and he smiles at me.
"Trust me I'd rather die than just lay here in my own filth but I can't sort myself out until tomorrow, doctors orders" now that was true. It seemed weird but his doctor said the bullet was laced with some chemical or something, I don't know but it's quite dangerous so Sakusa needed to stay away from water for a little bit in case any excess chemical reacted with the water.
I stand up and walk over to the door. "Imagine smelling could never be me" I do the Debby Ryan hair tuck and then run out of the room laughing, I hear a faint 'you're so immature' as I do and that just made the situation even funnier to me.
I ran back to my room and did some little routine things like skincare and putting on some comfy clothes before curling up with all of the luxurious pillows and blankets on my bed and drifting off into a blissful sleep. I sound like a right spoilt brat but if you knew how comfy this bed was then you'd be acting exactly how I am, ITS SO SOFT! Anyway enough of that-

I woke up by myself today which was a surprise but that wasn't the only unexpected thing to happen. When I opened my eyes I saw Atsumu leaning against the door frame with a shit eating grin on his face and his phone in his hand, clearly recording me. Him being there caused me to go flying across the room before I had even stepped onto the floor. Bit of an exaggeration but I did end up rolling onto the floor and let me tell you the impact hurt like a buttcheek on a stick! When I eventually managed to sit up and the throbbing on my nose decreased to a level I can handle, all hell let loose. "AYO WHAT THE FUCK YOU SCARED ME SO MUCH MY SOUL LEFT ME FOR A BIT THERE! THIS BITCH RAG DOLLED" he was trying his best not to show any signs of humour but was failing miserably.
"My bad" he rubs the back of his neck and chuckles, I mimic his chuckle sarcastically and rub my nose to try and get rid of the last bit of pain. "Yer just such an easy target" he walks over and offers me a hand, I click my tongue before taking it and finally standing up. Pay back is gonna be a bitch~ I mentally snicker but am brought back to reality when he nudges my shoulder.
I shake my head from side to side and then look up at him. "To what do I owe the pleasure of having you in my room at this specific time in the morning?" I do a little curtesy and smirk at his unimpressed expression.
He folds his arms across his chest and clears his throat. "Omi has been given the all clear and is currently in the shower, thank the lord he fuckin' stunk" he raises his arm up and pinches his nose with a look of pure and utter disgust on his face, it was hilarious to say the least.
"Don't even I felt so bad for him but at the same time I couldn't handle standing next to him, I can't wait for him to smell like disinfectant again though...I weirdly miss that smell" he silently agrees with me by nodding before offering to walk me to the kitchen where a huge breakfast platter has been made to celebrate Sakusa's recovery, and of course I wasn't going to deny because it's free food!
◢◤◢◤◢◤◢◤◢◤◢◤◢◤
There were so many different kinds of fruit, eggs, toast, meat and then vegetarian and vegan options that I was practically drooling all over the floor just from the thought of eating any of what was on offer. "Yer might wanna pick yer jaw up Y/n it's on the floor" Atsumu whispers in my ear and then walks over to go and join Bokuto and Hinata. I, feeling extremely embarrassed, wipe around my mouth and then do as Atsumu did. We all grabbed some plates and then picked up what we wanted before going and sitting at a huge table with way too many chairs for me to count right about now, my mind was preoccupied with food...
We sat there eating for a bit and then out of the blue Sakusa walked through the huge double doors that were open and led to where we were. He had shaved, trimmed his hair, showered and even got himself all dressed up in an all black suit with golden clasps on his collar. He looked good, to say the least. He had an air of confidence around him that had been missing since the moment he was shot and it felt like I was meeting him for the first time all over again. "Oi oi look who decided to show up!" Atsumu put down his coffee cup and walked over to Sakusa. They clasped their hands together before pulling each other in, patting themselves on their backs and then pulling away. "Surprised yer let me touch ya Omi" Atsumu teases and Sakusa pushes his shoulder as a response.
"That was a one time thing, next time you'll be bathed in bleach before you even get to lay a single finger on me" I missed the mutual hostility between the two because they would never actually hurt each other but it was amusing to watch.
Hinata and Bokuto jump out of their seats and go to pile on top of Sakusa but he moves out of the way just in time and the pair end up falling on the floor, Bokuto on top of Hinata. Ouch! Poor Hinata...Bokuto is built like a metal door. "Omi~" Bokuto whines as he gets off of Hinata and rubs his forehead, presumably because it was hurting just a tad. "You weren't supposed to move" he pouts and I swear I saw his hair sulk with him but I just played it off as me being too hungry to think straight.
So, as they all 'fan-boyed', is there even a word for that?!, I picked up some things from the table and put them on my plate, this and that. I took a few bites to fill my stomach up a bit and then I turned to see them all still talking to Sakusa but I decided to join in, so I walked over. The reaction I got wasn't quite what I was expecting though. I walked up to Sakusa and greeted him but he just completely blanked me before walking over to the table with the other three males, meanwhile I was left standing by the doors with just my thoughts. They were overcrowding my mind as I had no idea what I had done to deserve such a reaction, we were getting on so well and yet he's acting like this. The fuck? Did I accidentally stand on his foot or something?!
I huffed out in annoyance and followed them to the table, he was acting as per usual with the others but didn't spare a single glance in my direction. Instead of trying again right now I sat down and finished what I put on my plate, my hunger was making me feel angrier than I actually was.
We all finished eating at around the same time and those who were previously inside of the house were now clearing up the table. Despite there being loads of food most of it had been eaten. Sakusa by now had stood up and was readjusting his blazer before starting to leave but I jumped in front of him just before he could enter the house. "Hey what's going-" but instead of stopping to answer me he just pushed past and blanked me once again. "Huh..." I breathed out.
"Rude"
