"Hey are you there?" you shout from outside Akaashi's house.

After knocking for the second time you begin to wonder if Akaashi's even home.

"Y/N?" he says as he opens the door with a surprised look on his face.

You whip your backpack around to show him and give a huge smile.

"I was just thinking about how we used to study together so I came to see if you wanted to," you shrug.

"Y-Yeah sure, come in," he replies.

Akaashi studies you intensely as you take off your shoes.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" you giggle, "come on let's go."

You grab Akaashi and pull him into his room. You drop your backpack on the floor and sit on his bed. You then look up to him and notice he's still looking at you as though you've got something wrong with your face.

"What's up with you?" you groan.

"I-I'm just surprised you're here," he says as he slowly makes his way over to his desk chair, "I thought you were still upset with me because of yesterday."

"Nah," you say cheerfully, "how could I be mad after your little peace offering."

"Huh?"

"The soda," you deadpan.

"Oh, right sorry I'm just a little scatterbrained right now," Akaashi replies.

"Okay nerd now can we please start studying?" you tease.

"Sure."

You watch as Akaashi pulls out his notebook. You finally feel happy since you're actually getting to spend time with him again.

You and Akaashi spend a few hours in your hard-core review sessions like you did the past years. Once the two of you start studying separately you begin to wonder when you should talk to him about Maya.

If I don't do it now then I don't really know when a better time would be.

You gather your confidence and decide that now is the right time to talk.

"Hey Akaashi can I ask you something?"

Akaashi turns around and looks curiously at you.

"You, uh, don't have to answer if you don't want to," you nervously tell him, "It's kinda personal."

"Alright well what is it?" he shrugs.

"I-Is everything okay with you and Maya? The two of you seem kinda... off," you explain as politely as you can.

Akaashi sighs and sits down by you on his bed. You watch as the look on his face changes to disappointment.

"I rushed things with Maya," he admits.

"D-Do you still have feelings for her?"

Akaashi gives you a bewildered look. Your body immediately tenses up and you get flustered when he doesn't respond.

"U-Uh Aka I'm really sorry I didn't mean to say something out of line," you scamble to say defensively.

"It's fine," he replies as he shakes his head sadly, "Maya is just not the right one for me."

Crap now I made him sad nice going, Y/N.

You quickly slide your notebook away and sit up close to him. You put your hand on his cheek and give him a slight but gentle smile.

"Hey let's go do something more fun instead of this," you whisper.

You get lost in Akaashi's eyes for a moment before realizing the position you put yourself in. As you swiftly move your hand down you scoot back away from him.
