Tutor (Ushijima Wakatoshi x Reader)

Chapter 46

You spent a good few moments savoring each other's presence, the fact that you could actually touch a rare luxury for the both of you.

After cuddling for a couple of minutes you felt one of your legs, which was tucked under you, starting to get tingly. You pecked Wakatoshi on the cheek before pulling out of his embrace to adjust your sitting position.

"I'm sorry, my leg's falling asleep-" You finished your sentence with a yelp when he pulled you down to lay on the bed with him. 

You were both lying on your side and you could just imagine how your face must be quickly turning a dark shade of red under his intense gaze.

"A little warning would be nice next time." You said and pouted, trying not to get too distracted by his hand on your waist.

A low chuckle met your ears and he had a slight grin on his face when he replied. "Okay."

He let a few moments of silence pass between you before adding: "I'm going to kiss you." He gave you no more than a fraction of a second to prepare before he leaned in to claim your lips once again.

This time you had enough presence of mind to notice that he tasted sweet, fruity.

His hand caressed your back as you deepened your kisses, your own hand on his chest, holding on tightly to the fabric of his sweater. 

Your breath hitched when you felt him slide his hand underneath your t-shirt and he opened his eyes, giving you a questioning look. You motioned that it was okay and leaned in again, but from that moment your mind started working at a hundred miles an hour and only a few moments later you sat up. 

"They could be back at any moment." You explained while running a hand through your hair and you turned to your suitcase. "I'd better go unpack a bit or something."

Wakatoshi sat up, without saying a word. You hoped you hadn't hurt his feelings and started beating yourself up mentally for the way you handled the situation. You squatted down in front of your opened suitcase and rummaged around a bit, pretending to actually be doing something, while you tried to find a way out of the awkward situation you had gotten yourself into.

After you had pulled out a specific piece of clothing three times, just to put it back in a different spot you noticed Wakatoshi's tall frame squat down next to you.

"You brought Vabo-chan." He noticed as he picked the plush up from your case. 

"Yeah." Was all you could answer while trying to figure out in your head how to not screw this up.

"I'm glad you like it, Tendou advised me to get you something cute. This is all I could think of." He handed the toy to you as he spoke.

"Of course! It's very..." You told him as you took Vabo-chan and looked at it fondly. "You."

He laughed softly and you felt the last of the tension flow out of you. "Well, 'I' have not gone over so well in the past."

He went back to sit on the bed, leaning forward to not bump against the top bunk, and you followed. You put Vabo-chan down on your lap. "What do you mean? 'Not gone over well'?"

"It's a strange thing. Ever from high school, there has always been a ton of girls cheering me on at games." He said and you remembered Tendou telling you something similar before. "But whenever I took one out, they would tell me I talk about volleyball too much. They didn't care much for the gifts I got them either."

While the topic was not something one would casually talk about, it might even be a sore spot for some, he was telling you about it as if you were chatting about the weather, or what you both had for dinner last night.

"I don't understand why they would come to watch my games and go out with me, if they're not interested."

You poked his cheek with a finger. "That's because you are very handsome. Especially when you're playing." You said and felt the heat rise up to your cheeks. "Those girls would have probably agreed to go out with you whether you played basketball, football, or even mini-golf. They're most likely only interested in what's on the outside, not what's in here." You said as you pointed at his chest.

"You're different though." He said and he grabbed hold of the hand you had just used to point at him. "Right?"

"No, I only want you for your body." The joke was out before you could help it and your eyes widened. You relaxed though when his laughter filled the room. The more time you spent with him, the more you felt you could just be yourself in his presence.

Nonetheless, you felt like you had to set things straight. "Of course I am. I love how your eyes light up when you're talking about your latest game or how you try to explain to me what you're working on in practice in a way I can understand."

You held up your plush against your cheek. "And I love your gifts and how much thought you put into them."

He hummed and fixed his gaze on your joined hands, slipping away deep in thought. After spending a few moments you couldn't help but ask: "Were there many?"

He looked up at you, shaken from his thoughts, with an eyebrow raised in question. "Many what?"

"Girls you dated." You clarified, feeling embarrassed but needing to know anyway.

"Four." He replied without giving it much thought. "Five, including you. As you probably already realized, it never lasted long."

"Oh." Was your lame reply. You had not expected to be happy with his answer, whatever it was.

"How about you?" He asked, unexpectedly, but before you could start to stumble for an answer the door of your room opened suddenly.

"Hello, lovebirds! What are you up to?" Marie entered the room excitedly, but her face fell when she spotted you. "Talking? How boring."

"Marie!" You chided her, but internally thanked her for the interruption. 

"Oh! Vabo-chan!" Noya called out from behind Marie and you knew that the peace and quiet were officially over. Hyakuzawa walked in after the two, looking positively overwhelmed.

"So, what did you buy?" You asked, trying to keep the conversation away from the topic of 'you and Wakatoshi'.

Marie held up a plastic bag triumphantly. "Onigiri! All kinds of them."

"Shall we go down and eat in the common room? Then everyone can have a seat." Noya proposed and everyone agreed.

You left the room with you and Wakatoshi in the back, the other three taking the lead.

"Do you have any plans for Christmas?" He asked you as he took your hand in his.

You shook your head. "No, not specifically."

"Then let's meet up in Sendai." He suggested and you saw no reason to disagree, you were sure Marie wouldn't mind.

"What are we going to do?" You couldn't help but ask.

"You'll see." Was his only reply.
