Hello everyone I know I was supposed to post this a long time ago but I've been getting cake orders every weekend and since I'm currently in Mexico so I'll try to upload Midorima chapters as soon as I finish editing and have service. Hope you guys enjoy the chapter.
Your POV
"This is bad, this is bad," I said as I started to regret what I agreed to. If you're wondering I accidentally agreed to help the student council budget. I have no problem doing them the problem is that I didn't know who was going to help me.
"What's up with you?" Aomine asked as I glared at him. We had just got into the lunch break and since we were all in different classes I had gotten my food first. Everyone but a certain someone was here to see my sorry state.
"Nothing I just made a mistake with something," I mumbled as he and Tetsu looked at each other.
"Is it about what the student council asked you to do for them?" Aomine asked as I groan.
"Is something wrong with the work, I know you are smart and a hard worker, but I can't see you making a mistake," Midorima said making me lay my head on the table.
"What's going on here?" Akashi asked as he and the rest of the guys greeted him.
"Nothing is going on, why would you think that!" I said in a panic as he tilted his head. It's barely our first month since we started dating but I feel a bit nervous talking to him. Since we haven't told anyone about our relationship and seeing that he has a fan club that worships him it would be best to not announce it.
"Is (F/n)-chin not feeling well?" Mura-chan asked as snap out of my current thoughts.
"I'm fine really, just a bit jumpy today," I said as they all looked confused, and I just wanted to be left alone for a bit.
"Aomine here you can have my lunch today, I have to do something so I'll see you guys later," I said as I got up and left without hesitation.
Kuroko POV
'Something is going on with her, she's been acting weird since that party she went to with Akashi. Did something happen between them?' I looked at her tray and see she barely ate any of her food.
"Do you think it's her grades?" Aomine asked as he began to eat her food.
"I highly doubt it, but it must be something important to make her act this way," Midorima said as I began to wonder when this all started.
"Akashi did something happen when you asked her to accompany you to that party?" I asked as he thought about it.
"I don't think so, maybe I did something that may have offended her in some way." He said as he look to the side.
'No you definitely did something, and now that I think about if she's been different since that day that means it's something between the two of them,' I picked up my tray and excused myself.
Akashi POV
'Kuroko seems to think something happen and I guess he has every right to know but we did agree not to say anything to anyone,' I finished up my lunch before heading back to class.
"Is it just me or has Kurosaki-san and Akashi-sama been acting a bit differently these past few weeks," someone said as I stopped and listened.
"I hadn't noticed it."
"Yeah they have been closer than usual but I just assumed it was because they're in the same club activities and top of the whole class."
"Maybe he tutors her?"
"Yeah, but she does help out when someone needs help with something."
"I think we're thinking too much into this, they could just be friends and they're just hanging out like any normal people would do with their friends." They began to walk away, to what I assume was the bathroom, I knew some people would find out about us interacting more than we usually do.
'Could she be worried about this? Is that why she's acting strange?'

Your POV
'God if this is your way to punish me can you please stop and on someone else for a bit!' I was sitting with Akashi in the classroom doing the budgets for all upcoming events for the school. He was doing some other paperwork for the student council.
"I'm sorry that we put this on you but most of the student council always make a mistake when it involves the budgets," Akashi said and smiled kindly.
"It's alright but my caption and the coach would like an excuse why I didn't show up to practice. So would make sure to give them my excuse note, I would like to still be on the team," I teased as he chuckled seeing that I was talking about him as my captain.
"I'll make sure to inform both your captain and coach about your absence," he said as I notice a few girls looking at us.
"Your fans are here shouldn't you attend to them?" I mumbled as he smiled. He looked at them making them hide from sight before he could see them. He got up and asked them to head to their club activities or to head home if they were not in clubs.
"I could say the same thing too," I rolled my eyes.
"Yeah but they don't always surround me like you do," I stated as I notice a mistake and began to look over if I had made a mistake and saw it wasn't.
'This is strange how was this missed by Akashi?' I was about to ask him but when I was about to ask he started to talk.
"Is something been bothering you lately?" He asked as I blush.
"What do you mean?"
"Aomine said you were acting strange and for him to say that I figured something is bothering you," he said as I looked away.
"It's nothing I'm just a bit jumpy today," I said as he stared at me making fidgeting.
"By any chance is it about me?" He asked as I blushed.
"No, it's not you, I'm just weird!" I said making him sigh before he got up and came to my side.
"(F/n) look at me, please," I did as he lean in to kiss my forehead.
"Let's go on a date this weekend."
'Eeeeeehhhhh?!'
Kuroko POV
As I arrive home I notice (F/n) shoes at the entrance meaning she's home already. I greeted my grandmother and headed to my room to drop off my things before checking up on her.
'I wonder if she'll talk about it now,' I head to her door. When she allowed to go in I see her laying face down on the bed. She was in her sweatpants and one of her brother's shirts, just by looking at her state she was in a dilemma.
"Are you alright? Did Akashi-kun do something?" She looked at me making curious about her problem.
"Tetsu, I'm so stupid," she said as she hid her face, I sit down on her bed and patted her head.
"Want to talk about it?"
"Akashi asked me out on a date and I feel so embarrassed that I'll make a fool of myself in front of him," she said as I smile seeing she worries about others.
"I highly doubt he cares about that, he likes you because you put others' needs first before yours." She peeked out to see me but went to hug her pillow.
"Even so I don't know if I should be the one to date him, a girl from a fallen company dating a boy from a high-end company. Talk about us would drag his name to the ground," she said as I jab her side but not too hard only enough to make her flinch.
"Akashi doesn't care about your social status," I said as she was recovering from my jab.
"Tetsu you should work on your strength when you jab someone on the side, they're more painful than you think," she said as I apologize for not holding back a bit more.
"So what kind of date did he ask you out on?"
"He didn't say but told me to meet him at a coffee shop, which makes me worry cause I don't know what to wear for this date!" She yelled as I smiled seeing that she was just like other girls.
"But you have dated before," I stated as she groan.
"Ogiwara doesn't count Tetsu, plus I had a small crush on him, and playing basketball with him was fun," she said with her cheeks burning red.
"Okay then so why not wear something simple but a bit more romantic," she groan as she got up and looked in her closet and saw that she had a lot more darker colors.
'It seems well be very busy trying to find her an out she seems alright to wear.

Akashi POV
"Sir, would you like to order something while you wait?" The waiter asked as smiled.
"Some coffee please," he nodded as I looked at my watch and see it was a few minutes since I arrive.
'Maybe she changed her mind,' I was about to ask it to go when the door rang and I saw her coming in. Her outfit was something I wouldn't have expected her to wear but she look very cute.
(Hat is optional.)
"Hey Akashi, I'm so sorry that I'm late," she said as I smiled.
"It's fine I just came a bit early to get us a table," I said as I could take my eyes off of her. Comparing her to when she wears her school uniform she looks more beautiful than ever.
After giving our order to the waiter we were finally able to have some alone time without interruption. At first, it was a bit strange that we could go on a proper date, and I'll admit I'm a bit nervous since I want this to work. Even my father seems to like her so much that he even allowed her to join us for another event.
"Akashi-kun, I don't mean to question you but why did you suddenly ask me out?" She asked as I smile.
"Isn't it obvious, I like you." She blushed and down making me wonder what running through her mind. I smiled seeing how shy she is when she's unsure to ask.
"I like how you help others when they need it when you're busy, and I like that you're always honest to someone when they need the truth. In all honesty, I like that your like a breath of fresh air that brings in calm and welcoming energy." She seem surprised but looked down.
"But what if your dad finds out and-"
"He already knows and to my surprise, he seems a bit more supportive of us dating. He even asked to bring you over to dinner to get to know you better," I said as she was a bit taken aback.
"So he doesn't think negatively of me," she asked making confused.
"No not even a bit, he knows your dad back when they were in college." She looked surprised about the information that she almost seem hesitant to believe it. The waiter came in with our order and then left us to enjoy our meal.
"(F/n) I want to ask you something and I want you to be truthfully honest with me," she looked at me and nodded.
"Kurosaki (F/n), I like you, maybe even more than like, and truthfully I feel like I can do anything cause you are always there to support me. What I'm trying to say is let's officially announce that we're dating."
Your POV
When he said that I was surprised to officially announce our relationship to everyone. It would mean we won't have to hide it anymore or in my case be a mess in front of them.
"Are you sure you want to make it official to everyone, is this what you want Akashi?" I asked as he smiled.
"What I want is to spend time with you and not worry why others are seeing us together more than we normally do. Not only that there have been a few times I almost snapped at a few guys who were going to ask you out." He pouted but I smiled seeing that he's a bit possessive in a good way.
"Alright then we'll make it official then but I wonder how the team will see this though," he nodded but smiled.
"That's something we should worry about later, let's just enjoy the present now and worry about the future later." I smiled and nodded as we began to enjoy our meal. After we finished eating I was about to pay for my meal but Akashi beat me making me pout. He said that he wanted to be a gentleman like his mother taught him. I couldn't help but wonder if his mom was in the hospital or something but I didn't ask seeing that it might be a sensitive topic. We walked around the shopping district and looked at the displays seeing what was the newest fashion trend but I just posed like the manikins causing him to laugh honestly I wish I can make him laugh more but even I know I have a limit on my sense of humor. As we reached a quiet park we decided to rest a bit enjoying the nice weather.
"The weather is lovely today, not too hot and not too cold," he said as a nice breeze passed by.
"Akashi you mentioned your mother taught you to be a gentleman, what else did she teach you?" I asked as he smiled fondly about his mother.
"She was amazing at everything, her cooking was always delicious that even my father ate every bite. She is also the one who taught me to play basketball," he said as I was surprised by the news.
"She sounds amazing does she teach you still?"
"No she passed away a few years ago," he said as I felt a bit guilty for bringing out a hard topic.
"I'm sorry I didn't know, I figured she was feeling unwell."
"It's alright I try not to talk about it so it's not your fault," he said as I sigh feeling a bit guilty.
"I guess."
"Tell me more about your family, I know you have a brother but you don't talk about your parents much either."
"Well my mom is hospitalized since I started elementary and due to her poor health, she has to stay there for her treatments. Sometimes they let her go to spend time with us but she always has to go back the next day. My father however I never met him, he died before I was even born and left us in debt because his business was scammed. My brother doesn't like talking about the old man but when he does it's always the same thing and how he hates that left us in the situation we're in. Sometimes I can't help but agree with him if my father didn't get scammed, we wouldn't have to rely on Tetsu and his family and have our own home," I said as I felt that I'd been a burden to Tetsu and didn't deserve to be there. Even if Tetsu's parents knew my mom so well and volunteered to I just didn't feel right.
"I see, that explains a lot now," he said making me surprised.
"What do you mean?"
"Whenever someone would try to invite you somewhere you would decline saying you had plans already. I just never would have thought you were spending time with your mom in the hospital." I sigh seeing that he had pieced everything now and I'll probably be pitted now.
"I guess we're in the same boat," he said I was surprised by his words.
"I guess we are."
Akashi POV
After learning more about her I feel like we're more closer than we were before. I guess everyone has that one secret that they don't share with just anyone.
"Akashi we should go to that dance studio and try that couple's dance they were doing. It looked like a lot of fun," she suggest as I intertwine her with mine and kiss her hand.
"Well do that on our next date," she smiled as we made our way to her house.
Kuroko POV
As they came into view I couldn't help but smile seeing that they were happy together. I knew that something had happened between them but for them to start dating without anyone knowing was a good choice.
'I hope their happiness will never end.'
