THIRD POV

[TIMESKIP: After 2nd and 3rd Year]

"Y/n-kin, dear, hurry up. Your friends are here."

She sighed, "I'm almost done."

The girl fixed the fox mask Kita had given her on the side of her head, securing it properly before carefully going down the stairs. Her mom looked up from her laptop and gave a tired but heartwarming smile to her.

"You look really nice, starlight," The mom eye smiled and stood up from the sofa.

She nodded and slipped on her simple white geta, her mom wanted to smoothen her pale blonde hair but refrained herself because of her phobia.

"When you were 2nd year you got half of your hair bleached, right? Why did you bleach it completely now?" 

Y/n stood up straight and looked at her straight in the eyes, "I thought it was cool."

Her mom sighed in exhaustion and nodded as she tucked Y/n's fringe behind her ear carefully with a finger, using the slightest contact, "I don't believe you one bit but alright. Let's talk about it when you're comfortable enough. Me and your dad will probably leave again tomorrow for another business trip, enjoy the festival stroll okay? Remember to stick by someone's side so you don't get lost."

But I really did bleach it with intent... mostly because Atsumu kept on saying he thought I looked cute with it.

The girl just nodded and received a forehead kiss from her mom. It was sweet, she won't lie about that. Seeing her mom still give attention to her even though she's busy— it's enough to satisfy her heart even if they weren't home for a long time.

"I'll get going now," She slightly bowed but got confused  when she saw her mom frown.

Y/n also frowned, "What is it?"

Her mom shrugged a bit, "You still haven't introduced me to your boyfriend."

"Boyfriend?" She raised a brow before an inevitable smile rose from her lips, "Oh. Ahaha.."

The mom was shocked when her daughter turned to her with one of her genuine smiles.

"One day I'll be able to properly introduce him to you. Once your schedule is fixed, anyway."

Her mom smiled and returned to the living room with final words, "I'm counting on that."

Look at her spray alcohol on her palms every 20 minutes. Y/n sweatdropped with a small smile as she watched her mom apply alcohol on her hands, a gallon of it near her workspace.

She proceeded to exit the house with a faint sigh, moving her gaze up only to meet with Atsumu's captivated ones.

"My...," The blonde slightly sniffled with slight tears in his eyes, "My darling looks really lovely stunning."

Osamu rolled his eyes at him and guided Y/n in the car, leaving Atsumu behind. Suna was asleep on the passenger seat but still managed to look pretty in his sea green yukata. Kita was in the drivers' seat, scrolling on his phone with his fine hands gleaming under the moonlight that faintly steeped through the window. His yukata was crimson red with a white haori draped over his shoulders.

The girl was placed on the center seat with the blonde on her right side and the silver on her left side.

At on point she kind of felt overwhelmed.

But who wouldn't, honestly? She's in a car with boys who were effortlessly gorgeous no matter what angle you'd look at them from.

They honestly make me feel a bit ugly without even doing anything. She pursed her lips and sighed. But..

A smile full of feelings bloomed on her lips when she turned to her right to see Atsumu quarreling with Osamu on her left. He was really cute no matter how you look at him. She blushed at the thought of his hair being a little curly.

The blonde must've noticed her staring. He stopped fighting with Osamu to see Y/n smiling beautifully at him. His ears turned red with his face.

"I-Is something wrong?" He stuttered when he saw how she giggled silently.

She shook her head and leaned back on her seat, "Nothing."

He blinked and a grin made its way on his lips. His silver haired twin had his face scrunched as he looked away, not wanting to witness a sickening couple silently flirt within his view.

Aww, she really loves me. His heart fluttered, blushing harder when she held his hand secretly.

Kita cleared his throat and eyed Y/n on the rear view mirror, "Put on your seatbelts. I'm driving us to the festival now."

"Since when did you get a license?" The girl curiously asked him.

He lazily shrugged and began to drive smoothly, "That's a secret."

The girl had her head slightly tilted to the side but Kita just waved her off and focused on driving. His pale, lean, but veiny arms and hands were present as it rested on the wheel. Lightly tensing when he turns to go to a side.

"Y/n," Atsumu whispered and held her small hand with his big one.

She quietly hummed and craned her neck to the side and up to see Atsumu wearing a soft smile with his eyes beaming, cheeks dusted in pink, "When we get to the festival, let's stroll around the stores okay? Tell me whatever you'd like to have and I'll give you everything."

"Hey, I can hear ya," Osamu frowned and turned to him, "Just because mom let you handle my money that doesn't mean you should spend it all for Y/n and forget about me."

The blonde looked away with a sneaky pout.

"Of course I won't forget about ya," He whistled.

The silver head was ticked off, "You—"

"Atsumu, give his money. Osamu, you stay with me, Suna, Aran, and Oomimi when we get there. Y/n and your twin need their moments," Kita said as he made a clean turn to the right, the sound of smooth contact of his palms and the wheel satisfying Y/n's sense of hearing.

Atsumu slightly whined, "Do I really have to?"

He shut up and nervously looked away when Kita sharply eyed him on the rear view mirror.

"Fine," He sighed and gave Osamu his onigiri wallet.

The silver twin's eyes sparkled at the sight of it and securedly held on it as if it was a gem.

The girl just caressed the blonde's hands throughout the whole ride to the venue, sometimes quietly humming random tones to which he was enjoying with the sound of her soft voice, only for him to hear.

He felt butterflies at the repeated thought of cuddling with her in the car, but he couldn't because the space was not enough for him to freely hug Y/n in the way he's comfortably enjoying at.

Maybe I'll invite her to the house after the event. Atsumu planned in his thoughts, a smile present on his lips with excitement swirling in his eyes.

•

"We're here."

Suna jolted on his seat when Y/n tapped his cheek with a finger from behind. Her face was slightly close to his flustered one.

"Do you need more time here in the car to fully wake up?" She asked.

He shook his head and rolled his shoulders, "Nah, it's fine."

Atsumu squinted his eyes at the two and slowly pulled the girl to his side, "We're goin' out."

"K," Suna replied.

Kita parked the car and got out along with the others. His gaze got caught up in Y/n's look.

She was breathtaking.

Then he remembered how she and Atsumu is together. As much as possible he wanted to not mind his feelings because she's already given hers to another guy.

"Kita-san, me and Y/n will go on ahead," Atsumu waved at him and the others who just appeared.

Their captain nodded, "Sure. Don't get lost, I'll text you when we need to gather."

The pair strolled in the middle with booths containing a variety of goods stood idle on both sides. Atsumu had bought few foods for him and Y/n, laughing when the girl's mask tipped down.

He got on her eye level and positioned the mask properly, the girl slightly blushed at the close proximity and how she could see his nice collar bones.

Really? Am I seriously thinking like this right now? She lightly bit her bottom lip.

"There," He grinned and stood up straight.

The girl's eyes sparkled when she saw one particular booth, "Atsumu!"

The blonde hummed and immediately smiled when he saw her pointing to the sweet booth like a cute child. He immediately nodded and took her there while holding her hand.

They ended up getting candy apples, few dango, strawberry crepes, and cotton candies.

The pair happily ate their sweets, finally sitting on a vacant bench after a long stroll. Atsumu's kept on getting magnetized by Y/n— he still can't get over the fact that he finally found a girl capable of giving him satisfying feelings that no one could give him because all they wanted was fame and to use him.

Y/n is a girl that he would never let go of.

Throughout the trainings, practices, camps, hang out sessions, lunch breaks, previous Nationals, and movie marathons at Miya household, she was always there for him as his number 1 silent but strongest cheerleader and company. He couldn't ask for a better supportive girlfriend that just so happens to also be his manager.

It's crazy how it took him from his 2nd year to the end of his 3rd year when they graduated, to completely get spell bound by her existence.

What more for the future?

"Atsumu."

He turned to her with a smile and realized she finished her sweets, "Yes love?"

Y/n was slightly taken aback but regained poise, "Nothing much. I just wanted to tell you how much I feel loved when I'm around you," She said and smiled.

Atsumu laughed and stood up from the bench, fixing his black yukata, "I'll always be here then."

She gave a thanks when he took her trash and tossed it in a nearby trash bin before pulling her up by the hand.

"Huh?" The girl blinked when he held both of her hands with a serious, sincere look on his face.

He gave a small lipped smile, "Y/n L/n."

She was confused when he brought her hands close to his lips and kissed it with his eyes closed.

He opened them and Y/n saw his brown orbs bright with love and affection. Only then she noticed the boy bringing out two beautiful silver rings.

"You make me the happiest by the slightest smile. My heart dances gleefully with overwhelming joy when you laugh and how it sounds like heaven to my ears. I'm at my safest when you're on my bed, just cuddling with me until we eventually have to do important stuff other than that. You take the greatest care of me when I'm feeling vulnerable and in need of support— be it mentally, emotionally, or physically.

"Let these rings...," He slowly slid the ring to her left hand's ring finger and the same with his, "..Be a symbol of our long lasting commitment 'till the end."

Atsumu smiled, "I swear on these rings that I will fully claim you in the future. Let it be a reminder of my plans on how I would make you the happiest and in marrying you when the right time comes."

"I know it might be a little early for me to be giving you this," He said as he caressed her hand with the ring, "But I won't let time judge and decide when I would tell you what I need to say."

He took a deep breath, "This would be a promise that makes our bond even stronger. With this promise ring, I vow to honor that bond forever."

The girl was speechless. Glistening tears were brimming her eyes as her slightly parted lips shook. Her heart was pounding with euphoric bliss— she felt as if she was in heaven's flower field.

"Hey, hey. Don't cry...," He whispered and softly cupped her face with his hands, "Y/n..."

"I love you," He smiled as he leaned closer to claim the title as her first kiss.

Just then at that beautiful moment, the fireworks sparked in harmony and synced with their kiss as if it wholly agreed with them. The kiss was slow, passionate, soft, and full with healthy wholesome feelings they shared as if it were covalent.

Both were close to each other with promises not only stringed with the rings, but also with their hearts.
