Y/N'S POV

"Oi."

"Oi."

"Oi!"

I jolted awake only for my forehead to collide with another.

"Ow," I whined and rubbed my forehead.

Kageyama scoffed, "Can you not whine?"

"Dumbass Kageyama," I muttered and looked around the bus, we're the only ones here. I turned to him, "Where's everyone else?"

"They went home already," He casually said and exited the bus.

"The fu-Kageyama, wait!" I stumbled when I got up and tripped. Muttering incoherent words, I finally collected myself and got off the bus as well.

"What took you so long?" He raised a brow, hands in his pockets.

"The hell? It's barely a minute since you walked out. Why are you asking anyway? It's not like we go to the same street," I sarcastically said.

"Well that's because my sister texted me that she prepared dinner for your family and mine. She wants us to have dinner together," He snorted.

"What?" I dumfoundedly asked.

He just glanced at me before walking away. I guess he didn't want to repeat it, according to the slight judging look on his face. Annoyance made its way on my face.

The chances of me jumping on his back to make him get damaged were high, but I composed myself. I just wanted a more clear explanation–it was so sudden.

"Oi, Kageyama!" I attempted to match his long strides.

"Stop talking so loud, we're not that far from each other," He deadpanned, eyes still infront of him.

"Right," I sheepishly mumbled.

The walk to the bus stop is silent. The awkwardness was disturbing me and making me feel uneasy. Kageyama however, isn't fazed at all.

He noticed me staring at him when we stopped to wait for a bus to arrive, "What are you looking at?"

My eyes widened and I looked away, "The sun."

"....Are you okay? You can't exactly look at the sun–," He frowned.

"I'm okay, is there a reason to not be okay?" I muttered and fiddled with my fingers.

I wanna go home.

"Right," He mumbled and waited with me.

For what seemed like an eternity, the bus finally arrived. I heaved a relieved sigh.

Kageyama let me go inside first, then him. The bus had no vacant seats so we had no choice but to stand with some people.

We got comfortable for a while–only frowning when the bus suddenly jolts. But other than that the ride was silent. Even though some of the seated eventually arrived at their destination, there will always be someone fast enough to take it first. I sighed and opened my phone instead.

I texted my mom to confirm if what Kageyama told me was true. Not a minute later, she immediately responded. It was true.

A frown glazed my face as I gripped the pole tighter to keep me from getting out of balanced. I wrote a short text with one hand before completely shutting my phone off.

"You still haven't exchanged contacts with me."

I slightly jolted when I heard Kageyama speak. His face was hovering on top of my shoulder as if he was looking at my phone the entire time, his minty breath making me shiver.

He side eyed me and I immediately looked away, "You didn't ask, so of course I still haven't."

The bus halted, making Kageyama suddenly bump on my back. He muttered an apology and stood straighter with better grip on the grab handle. I stood frozen with a red face–I just want to go home right now and suffocate myself with a pillow.

"Let's just exchange contacts after dinner," He said, unfazed.

"YeAh," A mental slap on my face for voice cracking.

He looked at me weirdly for a while but glanced away to watch the moving scenery outside. I sighed and eventually calmed down for a while, I counted trees as they pass by to hopefully pull my mind from boredom. Miyagi is not bad I guess, but I would still prefer Tokyo.

I feel like I'm homesick all of a sudden.

I have a few things that I already miss, my non-existent friends that I left, the warm house I used to leave in, my favorite parks, my usual cafés, hell–I even missed my therapist. She was a kind soul that helped me through some minor mental issues.

A person excused himself and walked past me, arriving at his destination. I looked to his old seat only to see Kageyama looking at me while sitting comfortably.

"Do you want to sit?" He asked.

"What? No. I won't sit on your lap," I silently told him while grimacing.

"Huh?" He wore a nonplussed expression, "Why the hell would you sit on my lap?"

I blanched as my soul left my body, my discomfiture unnoticed by him. He was staring at me like I was gravy on hotdog. And I don't mean that in a weird way, I just meant that he must be probably thinking that I'm odd.

"Uh–nothing," I incapacitatedly said.

"I was asking if you want to sit. I'm willing to let you take my seat if you're tired from standing up, we're still slightly far from our street," He quietly told me to not disturb nearby people.

"Don't underistimate me, I can stand all day and not look frail," I lied. My feet feels like it's going to give up any second now, there's no doubt that my legs will jerk awkwardly as it gives up.

"You can take my seat," The boy next to him kindly offered.

"Oh no, please don't bother. I'm okay," I smiled politely.

"Nah, it's okay. I'm near at my stop anyway," He grinned and stood up.

"Thank you," I sheepishly said and collapsed beside Kageyama.

"Pft, 'I can stand all day.'," He sarcastically mocked silently.

"Shut up," I rolled my eyes at him and looked outside of the window instead.

He just hummed before resting his head on the seat's head support. Kageyama closed his eyes and doze off, leaving me captivated by his looks. His side profile is no joke.

If I could bang my head on the window to make the bus go faster, I would. Possibly knock some sense into me as well.

This weird feeling I have for Kageyama is unfamiliar and quite terrifying. I barely know him yet, why do I feel slightly attracted? I feel cringey right now from all these cheesy thoughts.

I just fiddled with my fingers and enjoyed the busy view outside. Tonight, I just hope dinner with Kageyama goes well and fast.

I can't bear feeling like this when he's around.
