EDITED: 6/16/2021
It's sunny outside, but the wind is cold. The sun is currently directly above us, so the heat should be worse, but thanks to the clouds, it's not that hot.
Every lunch break, I either spend time with my friends or eat with my boyfriend, but today, I don't think luck's on my side. My friends are busy with doing their homework, and the other dude..
Having a smart boyfriend has its benefits, but I guess not right now. He's chosen as some staff for the next student committee trip, or something similar, and he's currently in a meeting, so I'm alone.
I'm sitting under a tree for shade, and to hide from everyone else. I've been waiting for any of them to come, but they're all busy. I asked him if he'll be out soon, but he's not reading my texts.
"(Y/n), you do know that lying on the ground... your skirt.." I look up and smile at Yamaguchi. "I was passing by, and a few guys were talking about you.."
"Were they speaking about how they're perverts for seeing a girl's thigh?" He stares at me in disbelief, and I laugh. "I'll sit up then, and cover my legs with my blazer."
"Do you want me to accompany you?" I shake my head, and he smiles. "Then I'll leave you for now. Tsukki should be done in a few minutes." I nod and wave my hand as I watch him leave.
I try texting my friends, but all of their replies were about their homework. I tried messaging Kei too, but he just wouldn't answer. I've been waiting for a reply, but he's not even reading them.
I get up from the ground, finding the guys Yamaguchi was talking about. I head back upstairs to the room, and my friends are still on their homework. When will they ever finish?
"Will you help us?" I shake my head, and they frown. Kei helped me with mine, so it just means that I wasn't able to do it on my own either. "Why not?"
"Do you really think I'm smart?" They frown, and I give them pats on their heads. "How about I get you guys some refreshments instead?"
"Chocolate milk!" All of them replies, and I just nod.
Some of them gave their money, and the rest just had me paying for theirs. I went to the nearest vending machine, and got 10 cartons of chocolate milk.
I should've brought a plastic bag. I carefully carry them to the room. "What are you doing, charity work?" I drop the drinks in shock, slipping and landing on the wrong foot.
"Kei, what the hell!" I try standing back up, hissing as my ankle throbs. I pick up the drinks and find him helping me. "You do know that there are more normal ways to approach me."
"That was pretty normal. You're just clumsy." I try standing up again, only to fail and hurt my foot more.
Kei suddenly picks me up from the ground, and I just look away as he brings me to the infirmary. Why is he even bringing me there? I can deal with it if he just lets me stay in class.
He places me on the bed, and I put the drinks on the side-table. He didn't even let me give the drinks to my friends. They're going to be complaining about me not returning to them.
I sit back and lean on the pillows, watching him as he looks for bandages on the shelves. This is just a sprain. He's taking it seriously when he shouldn't.
Kei sits on the bed, and I bite my lip as he takes my foot. He places the ice bag on my ankle and massages my foot gently. He's surprisingly gentle.
"What kind of idiot trips like that? That's just stupid." I try kicking him, but he holds my foot in place. "Don't move it around if you want to be able to walk, idiot."
"Do you have anything else to say to your girlfriend?" I ask, and he stays quiet, putting the ice bag aside to wrap a bandage around my foot. "Asshole."
"Do you have anything else to say to your boyfriend?" I hit him with a pillow, and he blocks it with his forearm. He glares at me and gently presses on the sprain, making me whimper in pain. "Stop moving around."
I just watch him bandage my foot and move around the room to return everything. I sit back and check my ankle, and he really did it perfectly. He's just acting like a jerk, but he's good with this.
"I'll be heading back to class." He says, giving me a pat on my head before turning away. I hug his waist, and he raises his brow at me. "What?"
I bury my face on his side and hug him closer. "You were gone for a long time... You were in that meeting for an hour, and you wouldn't even bother staying.."
"I was gone for 15 minutes.. how much more exaggerated can you get?" He sighs and takes my arms off, sitting next to me on the bed. "You're one clingy girlfriend." I click my tongue, and he laughs.
"Then breakup with me or something."
"I didn't say I didn't like it." I furrow my brows, and he gives me a light knock on my head. "What do you want? I can't stay for too long, shortcake."
I clasp my hands together, and Kei just stares at me. I don't know what I want. He was gone for a while, surprising me and thinks it's fun that I got sprained, and now he's leaving. Shouldn't he know what to do?
He sighs and lifts my chin up, smirking as my cheeks turn red. "What do you want?" I avert my gaze elsewhere, my whole body freezing as I feel his lips against mine. "Now that you have that, I'm leaving."
"Bring me with you.." He shakes his head and kisses my forehead. "Kei.."
"You're staying here to rest. I'll get back to you after class." He pats my head and kisses my cheek, laughing as I become more flustered.
"At least bring the chocolate milks to my friends.." He nods, and I help him carry the drinks.
I lay on the bed and cover myself with the blanket. I had nothing to do since I left my phone, or more like Kei took it from me so I can actually rest.
I fell asleep instead. I could've done something if he only let me keep my phone. I trust him to keep it safe, but I can't remember if he can unlock my phone or not. I hope he doesn't try to pry into my things.
I heard a bell, but I woke up much later than that. I was even still in a trance for minutes before actually waking up. I just saw the clock and realized that classes were over already.
Kei comes in with my bag, and I rub my eyes and stretch my arms out. "Coming with me to practice?" I just nod, and he helps me up, supporting me as we head to the gym.
He got me a chair, and I just sat around while they trained. He even told me to hide my injured foot behind the other one. It's not like this place has flying bullets everywhere. He's more worried than I am.
I watched them practice, and Kei would send me looks whenever I pick up a ball that came my way. I don't mind picking up a few stray balls, as long as I can reach them from here.
Hinata and Kageyama were arguing with each other, and it was interesting, so I just kept watching them. They were arguing about who's better at this or that, both or whatsoever.
"(Y/n), you can judge for us, right?" I just nod, and Hinata starts bickering with Kageyama again. "Who do you think is smarter?"
"I.. uhm.."
"Kageyama or me?" I want to say it's Kageyama, but I'm not sure. "He's not that great with his studies."
"I'm also not good with my studies.. I mean, without Kei helping me out.. I don't think I'd have nice grades." I say, and the two just stares at me. "B-But uhm.. K-Kageyama is.."
"See?! I told you! That makes it 233 wins for me." They were counting their wins? "How about this.. who do you think will get a girlfriend?"
"Ha..?" Kageyama's got a scary aura around him, Hinata's great at making friends... I think it's Kageyama, but it can also be Hinata. "I don't uhm.. it's uhm.. Kageyama.."
They start bickering again, and Kageyama laughs as Hinata cries. I just smile as the two continues to argue, laughing as I hear them talking about who buys food for the next bet.
Kei looks my way, and I smile, frowning when his gaze turned into a glare. What did I do now? Why did he glare at me all of a sudden? I'm alright. I haven't moved around to be hurt.
The whistle blows as signal it's time for break, and Kei rushes over to me, grabbing my arm and pulling me to the back of the gym. I try pulling away, but he won't let me go. My ankle hurts.
"Kei!" He finally lets me go, and I hold onto him for support. "Why did you pull me back here? My ankle hurts thanks to you.."
"Sorry.." He whispers, and I try to look at his face. "What were they talking to you about?"
"Who? Kageyama and Hinata?" He doesn't respond, and I sigh. "Are you jealous?" He turns away, and I smile as I find his cheeks turning red. I wrap my arms around his neck and kiss his cheek. "I didn't think you'd be jealous because of that."
"I never said that." Though his actions say otherwise. He hugs my waist and pulls me a tad closer.
"I love you." He furrows his brows and his cheeks turn into a brighter shade of red. "You get awfully awkward when it has anything to do with Kageyama."
"You don't even know that he likes you." He whispers, holding me closer to him. "And I never asked you to say that."
"Then I take it back." He glares at me, and I laugh. "You really have to be honest sometimes. Do you want me to keep it or take it back?" I ask, and he buries his face in my shoulder.
"Keep it.." I smile and wrap my arms tighter around his neck.
"Then.. can I hear my 'I love you' back?" He lifts his head off my shoulder, and I chuckle as I find his brows knitted together. "Do you not love me?"
"I.." I smile cutely, and he backs his head away. "I... hate you.. let's just go back inside." I peck his lips, and he just clicks his tongue and lets me go.
I head back inside ahead of him, slowly taking steps as my ankle still hurts from him pulling me outside. He's just not careful with handling me sometimes.
Kei takes my hand and wraps his arm around my waist, supporting my weight as we walk back inside. "I love you.. happy now?"
I smile and nod. "I am." He smiles a tad, sneaking a kiss on my cheek before heading to the others.
