Warmth And Coldness

Chapter 12

The training ended so I changed back to my normal uniform. As I took of my shoes. I saw my crippled feet I graze my hands. A few scars were there from all the excessive training I did when I was young

I shake my head trying to erase my thoughts of my boring past. I immediately inserted my socks taking my school shoes

I left seeing the others already leaving especially Kenma who was completely tired trying getting used to Lev's movements

I saw Y/N fiddling her fingers. I approached her

"Hey? Why are you alone?" I asked

"They were amazing Honda-senpai" she stated with a small smile

"I know right still interested on being a manager?" I asked her

"Will you be by my side?"

"I won't be forever but I will try my best to help until you can manage on your own. Plus I think the team likes you"

"I promise to do my best"

"That's the spirit!" I encouraged which was responded with a cute reassuring smile from Y/N

"Would you like me to walk home" I offered her

"No, don't worry I can walk home with Jiji (grandpa)" she said with a smile

"Wait, why haven't I seen you walk with him together in practice?" I asked her

"Well I go home early back when I still haven't joined any clubs but don't worry it's pretty boring at home..... Despite having full access to my wifi" she mumbled the last part with a sigh

"Well I hope you get home safely" I smile, gazing the top of her head until I decided to pat her head

She blushed as I smiled at her reaction

"Bye bye see you tomorrow"

I walked when I felt a tug on my arm. I saw Kuroo with a frown. I slightly pushed him

"What are you doing?" I asked him

"Nothing it's just I wanted to walk you home" he replied with a sly grin on his face

"You don't have to pull my arms off" I scolded

Kuroo stared at the girl at the back with a piercing glare. He was jealous but he would never admit it. He stared at the love of his life with a small caring smile

"The closer you are the better"

"What? Are you asking me to hold your hand now?" I was expecting for him to have a playful remark. Instead he gave me a genuine reply

"I would love that" his voice was soft mellow unlike how he used to talk with a half-assed grin on his face. But no this is different. His acting so different

"Ugh let's just walk stop spouting nonsense" I said and left him alone

We walked in silence to my apartment. I couldn't handle it anymore so I turned my head and saw him with the most troubled expression

"Why do you look so constipated?" I stared at him

He locked eyes with me as if staring directly deep inside me. I bit the inside of my cheek feeling a different person in front of me but the same features

Or was it I didn't know anything about him? Was I that clueless? Our friendship for 3 years. Did I miss something

"Yuki" he finally spoke in a serious tone. As he took a step forward. We were now inches together since he was taller than me. We had 14 cm height difference

I was technically nearly pressed against his chest. I placed my hand on his stomach trying to push him away

"What are you doi-" before I could finish he placed his head at my shoulder. Nuzzling at the side of my neck

"Damn it! Why do you always do this to me?" I heard him grumbling underneath

"Kuroo? I don't understand you" I questioned while frowning

"You won't and you never will" he stated his hand grabbed my arm and placed it at his chest. My hand stiffen feeling his muscles but what caught my attention was, the fast beating of his heart

I couldn't help my face flushed in embarrassment. My heart syncing with his.

"I like yo- no I love you, Yuki I love you so badly that every time I see you. I use every ounce of my self control to not kiss you place you in my arms. At first it was only cool being friends but, everyone loves you. I can't help but get jealous. All eyes are on you"he rambled confessing his feelings to me while hiding his face at my neck

It was shocking news to me. I simply blinked

"Why are so silent" he then looked at me

I couldn't reply as if my lacking understanding with the situation. I heard him sigh

"I'll wait no matter what is your answer. If you are not ready. I will wait no matter how long it is" he said then left me there while trying to comprehend. Everything escalated so quickly. I couldn't keep up with his face

"Wait!" I shout but he wasn't there anymore

I sighed while I walk to my apartment. I opened through the door and saw my dad passed out in the floor

"Dad!!" I yelled and immediately approached him

"Sorry kiddo your old man is getting weaker falling and tumbling" he said laughing. His definitely drunk. His reeking in alcohol

He was invited by his friends for a drink. He luckily managed to even get home in one piece

"Dad you shouldn't do that!"

"I'm so sorry kid it's just a scratc-" he then heard sniffing and saw his daughter crying

"Yuki! What's going on" he wrapped his arms on his daughter. Knowing it was teenage mood swings

"I hate boys like you idiots! You are idiots!" she said while crying

Katsuki Honda a single father directly getting insulted by his daughter. He simply brushed her hair as he let his daughter cry

"I'm sorry Yuki?"
