you made tsukishima promise you 'no funny business' in the shower as he helped you stand, bathed you and even carried you back to his room to help you get dressed. this made you question your relationship with him. did he even like you back? i mean, sure you guys had a some sort of relationship online plus you did get fucked by him (pretty good) but neither of you established a specific relationship. tsukishima had noticed your uneasiness, "is something wrong?" you were laying in his arms facing his chest, you looked up at him. "what are we? like our relationship now." you ask, looking back down at his chest, slightly embarrased. it was either you get embarrassed right there and then or get played. "whatever you want us to be y/n." he pulls you closer, placing a kiss on your forehead. "do you like me tsuk- kei?" he replies after a long pause, "yes, i like you y/n. i thought i was obvious about it." you look back up at him and his face was red. "okay good."

"can i be your boyfriend? officially?" he asks, his face still red. you smile. "yes, be my boyfriend kei." you snuggle closer to him and he does the same. "oh, about the special..." he breaks the silence, "oh um, did you still want to do it? i can close my account for you. us." he shakes his head. "no, keep it up. i was just going to say that it's tomorrow. and my birthday." he tucks a stray hair behind your ear. you look at the clock on his wall, '12:37am' it read. "hm okay. happy early birthday kei." you place a kiss on his cheek. he gives you a kiss on the lips. "thank you baby."

you wake up, pain in your lower back and your legs throbbed. the bed was cold. maybe he's outside. you limp slowly towards the room's door. last night he mentioned that no one was home but he didn't say when anyone was coming back. carefully, you open the door and peek out onto the hallway – doesn't seem like anyone else is here. "y/n." you jolt hearing tsukishima call your name, a tinge of huskiness in his voice. "it's just us, don't worry. my mom and brother will come back tomorrow for the family dinner." your mouth makes an 'o'. "i was just being cautious, i'm not ready to meet your family yet." you say walking closer to him pulling him into a hug. he hugs back, placing a kiss on your forehead and on your lips. "i made breakfast." you eat together.

"are you sure you wanna walk me home?" you up look at the honey-eyed blond. "yes, for the third time, i'm very sure i'll walk my girlfriend home." he places one of his hoodies on you, covering the shirt and shorts he gave you to wear. "you know you're not gonna get this back now, right?" he nods. "yup, that's why i'm giving it to you." you reach and hold his hand. "actually, i'll give it back if it doesn't smell like you anymore." he smiles, "okay, fine by me."you walk in silence – a comfortable silence. life was at its peak right now and you were happy. since you'd arrive home before tsukishima on days that the three of you would walk together, you hadn't realised how close his house was to yours. honestly, you had always assumed you lived closer to yamaguchi.

once you spot your house, you didn't want him to leave yet. you didn't want to be alone again. "kei, did you want to come in?" he immediately says yes. you unlock the door and he follows you in. the house felt cold despite you not being in your house for just one night. "i didn't want you to leave yet but now i don't know what we could do." you look around, finding something to keep you both busy. "can i see where you record?" his voice was soft and hesitant. "yeah, follow me." you lead him to what was originally a guest room but you lived alone so you put it to use.

the room was small. the bed was up against a wall furthest away from the door and there was a full wall mirror opposite of the bed. tsukishima noticed that. "mirror kink huh?" you side-eye him. "no you idiot. it's just helpful for when i record." tsukishima doesn't retort and just pulls you into his arms. "it really is you." you hum, "mhm."

a few hours have passed and it was already late afternoon. the two of you were situated in your living room, planted on the couch and had decided to watch a movie – he let you choose even though he knew you were indecisive but in the end, you chose (favourite movie). though it was your favourite movie, you've watched it multiple times already. your eyes felt heavy as you snuggled into tsukishima's shoulder.

"hello? mom?" you faintly hear tsukishima talk on the phone, "i'm at a friend's house... yeah, okay." tsukishima presses the end call button, turning to you to let you know that he needed to go but you were already in a deep slumber. he took a quick photo of you using the phone he held in his hands before slipping it into his back pocket. he carried you to your room, placing you gently onto your bed. "goodnight y/n." he pecks your cheek.

a/n they made it official !! yay
