SUNDAY

"get in loser,
we're going shopping."

kuroo smirks, and from the backseat, y/n hears bokuto let out a confused shout.
"what?! i thought we were going to the park!"

akaashi scowls, shaking his head.
"it's a joke, bokuto."

"oh."

y/n giggles quietly, covering her mouth with the back of her [skin tone] hand.
bokuto sticks his head out of the back window to peer at y/n. he reaches his hand out, waving excitedly.

"y/n!!!!!!!!! c'mon in the back with me!!"
he exclaims, opening the back door and scooting over so she can sit.

as she gets inside the car, a genuine smile on her face- she glances behind her one last time. her expression falters, her lips pursing together when she sees the familiar man on their apartment
balcony- no, her balcony,
staring down at her.

she can practically sense his burning glare of rage as she hesitantly closes the car door, forcing her gaze away from mom's boyfriend and to bokuto.

akaashi and kuroo take a
mental note of this moment.

bokuto's beaming smile gives her no other choice but to gift him one in return.
"hi, bokuto...!"

"hey hey heyyyyyyy!!!"

she giggles, buckling up as bokuto remains idly in his seat, not touching his seatbelt. y/n, after clicking the buckle into place, reaches over bokuto to grab his seatbelt. she quickly- but gently- buckles him up. just in case. she thinks before smiling up at him, leaning away nervously.

his lips are somewhat parted, and eyebrows raised before he smiles,
his face slightly red.

"thanks, strawberry-chan!!"

she tilts her head slightly, confused with the nickname as she gives a curious look to kuroo and akaashi in the front seat.
kuroo is turned so he can see y/n and bokuto, while akaashi's blue eyes dart to the rear-view mirror every now and then in curiosity.

"oh, haha. bo keeps going on
about how much you smell like,
'sweet red strawberries.'"
kuroo quotes.

"-because she does!"
y/n blushes feverishly, her face growing hot at the genuine compliment. she gives a flustered smile to bokuto and kuroo.

"o-oh, haha."

"yeah, so anyways. i'ma start driving now. thanks for buckling bo up- his dumbass always forgets..."

kuroo turns back around after she nods and giggles quietly, and he begins to drive.

༺♡༻

on the way,
akaashi is almost completely quiet, save for the few times he muttered quiet replies to kuroo as the roosterhead conversed with him. though, the blue-eyed boy did glance in the rear-view mirror every now and then...

bokuto, on the other hand...

could not stop talking.
