Falling For You (AkaashiXReader)

Chapter Twelve.

School had finished and you were on your way to the gym for volleyball practice.

Before heading in your phone had gone off.

Sara.girl💖: Wouldn't it suck if your crush found out you liked him?
Oh how devastating you'd be to find out that he doesn't like you back.
😘😘

You closed your phone, a bit shaken but not enough to make you anxious.
You took a deep breath and continued into the gym, to your pleasure the boys had already set up the net and are starting their practice.

"Hello y/n!" Konoha says running up to you.

"Oh hello, how are you today?"

"I'm great actually! I'm gonna be practicing my spikes so if you could please pay as much attention and give me some feedback?"

"Oh sure."

He holds his hand up in the air, waiting for you to return his high-five.

You couldn't help but realize that you both were the same height.

A smile came across his face as he bowed to you and then ran off meeting up with the other guys.

"I see that the team is pretty warmed up to you huh?" You hear from behind you.

"Oh hello Bokuto..yeah..its kinda cool I guess." You became flustered at the sudden attention.

Coach had everyone gather around as he had some news to tell us.

"We'll be going to Shinzen highschool next week, we'll be attending a summer training camp, this year there's a new school joining us. I'll hand out permission forms after practice. Please get them back to me as soon as you can."

"Sir!" Everyone said in unison.

You gave the boys a shy smile and went over to the bench and pulled out your notepad, ready to take notes.

As requested you watched Konoha with steady eyes as you analyzed his every move.

"The set was short...he's not used to that! Oh no here it comes." you mumbled.

In a flash the ball came straight at you, your eyes widened as the ball came closer.
You put your hands up to your face, unfortunately the ball had hit you, leaving a red mark on the bridge of your nose.

As you removed the ball from your face, you had noticed that there was a crack in your glasses.

"I'm so sorry y/n!! Oh my!! Are you okay??" Konoha said as he ran to you.
You could see the guilty look on his face.

"When the set is short like that and the ball is close to the net, try to jump one tempo off, that's how you would land it." you tried to give him a smile.

He looked at you stunned.

"Y/n!!" Bokuto yelled as he also ran towards you.
"Oh no..your glasses!"

Soon the whole team was surrounding you, all with worried looks on their faces.

You shook it off.
"I'm fine guys, really and their just glasses, I'll just get a new pair, it's no big deal.."

"I'm so sorry Y/n! It won't happen again." Konoha said with sad eyes and he bowed in front of you.

You stood up and walked over to him.
You reached down to his hands and guided him upwards.
"Konoha, please don't feel bad okay? I was in the need of a new pair anyways! This is just an excuse to get them! Please don't feel bad."
You handed him the ball you were holding.
"Now, why don't you try your spike again?"

He gave you a smile and pulled you into a hug, taking you by surprise.

"Alright guys! Since y/n is okay, we should get back to practice!" Bokuto announced.

"Right!!"

✨✨✨

Practice was coming to an end and everyone pitched in with cleaning up.
Bokuto had approached you.
"Hey do you need to go home right away?"

"No why?"

He smiled.
"Want to help me with my spikes? I need someone to block and well...everyone else said no."

You smiled to him.
"Sure! I don't mind, is Akaashi staying to set?"

"He sure is!"

"Okay cool! But we can't stay too late Bokuto, we still have school tomorrow and we still need dinner."

"We won't I promise!!" He put a hand on your shoulder.

How could I say no to you...your energy is just so addictive.

The rest of team took their leave and it was just the three of you.

You looked down to see that your were still in your uniform.
"Um.. I'll be right back okay? I just need to change."

"Sure!" Bokuto said as he grabbed a volleyball.

You grabbed your bag and ran to the girls bathroom.

Once you returned, you noticed two girls in the gym, talking to Bokuto and Akaashi.

You couldn't make out who the girls were exactly so You waited by the doors to hear what they were saying.

"No wonder why you're the caption Bokuto! You're so strong and powerful!"

"Yeah like so impressive."

"What are you guys doing here anyways?" Akaashi interrupted.

"Well I came to say that I was sorry to
y/n but I guess she's already gon--"

"She just went to the bathroom." Akaashi said cutting her off.

"I see..well is it okay if watch? I want to see you guys in action."

Sara?...
You stepped inside the gym now, ready to tell her to go away.

"I'd rather you not." Akaashi said coldly.

"Why not?" She pouted.

"Because you're a bully and y/n wouldn't appreciate you being here."

"Oh so it's about y/n? Hm? Well I don't see what you see in her honestly." She paused.
"You do know that she's had the biggest crush on you since like last year right?"

Your heart started skipping beats, making you feel dizzy.
You had dropped your bag on the floor causing a loud *Thunk* noise.

Everyone turned their head to you. Your eyes were locked with Sara's.
She was smiling her evil smile at you.

"Oops did I say that out loud?" She joked.

You're face was bright red from embarrassment and you had locked eyes with Akaashi.

His eyes were wide open from shock and you couldn't help but start to cry.
You grabbed your bag and ran for home.
You ran as fast as you could.
