~Meanwhile~
Bokuto paced around his room, phone clenched tightly in his hand. Your contact was open on the screen, but every time he went to hit ‘Call’, he chickened out.
“What if she doesn’t like me?” He mumbled. “Oh god, what if I ruin everything? What if she starts to hate me?!”
Bokuto groaned in frustration, dropping his phone on his nightstand, completely unaware that he had accidentally hit the ‘Call’ button when he did.
~
You groaned softly at the sound of your phone ringing. You rolled over in bed, nearly knocking it off the nightstand as you tried to pick it up. You blinked blurrily at the screen.
Bokuto is calling…
“Huh?”
You sat up and swiped your finger across the screen to answer the call. You raised it to your ear, reaching for the lamp as you did. After some fumbling, light flooded the room.
“Bo? Why are you-”
You paused at what you heard next.
“How the hell am I supposed to tell her?”
Bokuto’s voice sounded distant. He must not be near the phone. Did he call you by accident?
You were about to call his name again when he continued.
“It would be different if it was just a random girl, but it’s not.”
You pushed the covers back and stood up, searching for something to wear. You put your side of the phone on mute, set the phone on speaker, and started getting dressed.
“This is someone important to me. If I lose her, I-” Bokuto’s voice cracked harshly, and you felt your heart clench.
He must really love her.
You slid your shoes on and grabbed your house keys. You connected your phone to your headphones and continued to listen. Bokuto only lived twenty minutes away by foot, but you had a car, so it would only take about five to ten minutes to get there, depending on how fast you drove.
You got into the car and reached for the seatbelt, freezing when you heard sniffles on the other side of the phone. You quickly clicked the seatbelt into place, turned on the ignition, and pulled out of your driveway.
It was dark, and the streets were empty. You were incredibly thankful for it because you reached the apartment building easily. You parked in the parking lot of the park down the street and ran the rest of the way there. Once you were inside, you headed straight for the elevator. Once you were inside, you jabbed the button for the 3rd floor, tapping your foot impatiently as you waited.
“How do you tell your best friend that you’re in love with them?” Bokuto mumbled.
The elevator doors finally opened, and you ran down the hallway. You reached Bokuto’s apartment and raised your hand to knock, only to freeze at the words that left his mouth next. It was almost inaudible, but you heard it as if it was spoken right next to you.
“I can’t lose, Y/n.”
Your heart was beating too loud to hear anything else. You ripped the headphones out of your ears and ended the call.
Bokuto was talking about you.
He’s in love with you.
Oh my god, he’s in love with YOU.
You knocked (probably a bit louder than you should’ve, but you were too shocked to care). After a minute, you heard shuffling, the sound of a lock clicking, and the door opened.
Bokuto’s eyes were puffy and red from crying. You could see the remnants of tears on his shirt. His eyes widened when he saw you standing there.
“Y/n?” You almost winced at how hoarse his voice was.
Nervousness swelled like a tidal wave in your chest.
“Can I come in?”
Bokuto didn’t respond. He just stepped back and opened the door wider. You slipped past him, watching silently as he locked the door back. He turned around, jumping when he found you standing right behind him. He started to make a joke, but he saw how serious you looked.
“What’s wrong?
Your gaze darted away before returning to him. “Can I ask you a question, and have you promise to answer me honestly?”
That made him nervous. “You’re really worrying me, Y/n.”
“Promise me.” There was something almost desperate in your eyes, so Bokuto nodded quickly.
“I promise.”
You nodded slowly. “Do you..Do you love me?”
Bokuto’s eyes widened to the point that he really matched an owl. You probably would’ve laughed if you weren’t on the verge of panicking.
“I..” Bokuto swallowed thickly, his voice almost inaudible. “...Yes. I do.”
He squeezed his eyes shut and braced himself for you to scream at him, to tell him you never wanted to see him again, but…
It never happened.
Instead, he felt your fingertips brush his cheek before you pressed your lips to his. It was just a soft press of lips, but it still took his breath away.
When he opened his eyes, you were smiling softly at him.
“I love you too, Kotarou.”
It took a minute for him to process your words, and you waited patiently while it sank in. You knew when it did because a grin split across his face, and he wrapped you up in his arms.
“Hey hey hey, that’s awesome!”
You giggled at his excitement, squeezing him back just as tight.
Nothing had ever felt this right.

2:43am
In the ‘HELP ME’ group chat
Bokuto is online
Bokuto: (Bokuto has sent an attachment)
*In the photo, you and Bokuto are laying on his bed. He has one arm wrapped around you while the other is raised to take the photo. One of your arms is under his head while the other is slung over his stomach. Your head is resting on his chest. Bokuto has a huge smile on his face, and you’re grinning, seemingly caught while you were laughing.*
Bokuto: GUESS WHO HAS A GIRLFRIEND
Oikawa: OH MY GOD
Atsumu: HDJKHSAIO YES
Yachi: FINALLY
Kiyoko: YAYYYYY IM SO HAPPY
Hinata: GOOD JOB BO-SAN
Akaashi: I wish you two all the happiness in the world
Kuroo: YOU DID IT BRO
Kenma: I’m glad you two are happy
Iwaizumi: I think you two will be really good together
Yamaguchi: I hate to sound like a broken record but
Yamaguchi: BOKUY/N >>
Bokuto: THANKS GUYS
Bokuto: Y/N SAYS THANK YOU TOO
Hinata: No problem!
Iwaizumi: Glad we could help
~~~
Bokuto sat his phone down and grinned at you. “Can I take you on a date tomorrow?”
You smiled, eyes glowing with amusement. “You have practice tomorrow, and I have a bakery to run.”
Bokuto pouted when he remembered everything the two of you had to do. You giggled and kissed his cheek, tangling your hands together. “How about we have a movie marathon this weekend?”
Bokuto’s expression brightened immediately. “Deal!”
