The pouring rain almost felt like acid burning on your skin. Where was Tetsurō? He was supposed to be here 26 minutes ago; you might as well skip class for the day. He’s usually picking you up early. What could possibly be making him forget about you, outside your little apartment, in the rain.
That hook up he had with Alisa last night is whats making him tardy. He eventually pulled up, in his lavish car, looking exhausted. “What took you so long? You look tired…were you out partying again last night?” you asked while getting in the car. He just smirked and replied with, “Something like that…”.
You already knew if you pressured it you guys would break out in an argument inside the car, you were already drenching the seats with rain water. But you can’t help but care about him, cant you?
“Tetsu…can you communicate with me like a normal person?” you fidget with your fingers while asking. He turns his head towards you at the red light,”The fuck you mean like a normal person?” he questions. “I mean like, you’ve been so distant with me lately. Your short replies are making it worse for me to understand you.”
“I’ve always been like this, what are you talking about! Don’t start with me today.” he replied with a voice full of annoyance. “I just want our relationship to be better…for you to be better.”. He paused after hearing you say that. The tension inside the car was high. “How about you change yourself and be better.”, He snorts as drives again when the light turned green. But the next thing you said felt like the cherry on top for this intense ride.
“Like Alisa?” . . . What did you just ask him? Had he not been hiding it well enough? “You want me to change and be like Alisa, right?”. He didn’t even know what to say and just kept driving until you got close enough to the campus to park . “I have no idea what your were talking about ♡.” His ignorance made you rage and get out the car, slamming the door shut.
Now, the day was already over. You decided to walk home instead of bothering to talk to Kuroo again. That was until you heard a honk halfway down the campus sidewalk.
“Where the hell do you think you’re going?”, said the man himself. “Home? Where else…” You said as you looked him up and down. He scoffed,“Suit yourself, don’t call me crying when you’re tired.” driving away.
Not like you cared, not anymore at least. Ever since you found those messages in his phone you had to at least put up an uncaring act. But how much can one person put up with? That’s what you told yourself every day. Even when you sit awkwardly in his car as he’s got a scowl on his face, when she probably posted something to piss him off. It’s bad to talk on rides like that. Even when you hear nonstop notifications on your movie night dates as he tries to text back secretly, holding back a smile and his blush.
Even now when you’re watching through the window of 24 hour cafe on your walk home as he sits in a booth with her, sharing a milkshake. She’s laughing at one of his probably gosh awful chem jokes, twirling a hair strand looking up at him with desperate eyes. Is that how quickly he runs to her when you guys aren’t on good terms? Why are you still with this guy, haven’t you put up with enough.
The hum of the fridge is the only audible noise and the post lamp outside is the only source of light inside your apartment. Your roommate is probably out partying at some frat. But here you are, at home, feeling numb. The ringing of your doorbell disrupted the quiet and dark atmosphere. Then you hear it, hear his voice.
“♡, I know you’re in there, open the door for me please baby.” Hm, what a faux tone he’s putting on for you….you cant help but fall for it. Getting up and dragging your feet to your door’s peephole. “Please, ♡. I need to talk to you.”
You’re a goner. It took him almost nothing to have you in his arms crying, acting like he actually cared. At your door with your favorite snacks and flowers was a very splendid and well put together tactic. But you couldn’t see right through him and his “I’m sorry”’s and “I love you”‘s. This is why you’re still putting up with all this bullshit; Because he can actually be loving towards you. Only when he wants something of course.
Oh and he always got something from you, just to pillow talk and coddle you. Saying how’d he never leave you when you wake up in the morning. But this time, there was no one next to you in the morning.He left and tossed you aside like nothing. Leaving you blocked and speechless as you tearfully started down at not ‘message not delivered’ on the screen. How gullible were you last night?
“What do I need to buy today…” you think to yourself as you push your little shopping cart down the cereal aisle. You reach down to grab your favorite sweet cereal that you should’ve grown out of liking years ago. But then a hand caresses yours, reaching down for the same cereal. You look up to see non other than Alisa Haiba. She looks up as well and smiles, “Oh hey…you look familiar. Do I know you from anywhere?” she ask.
Your palms are sweaty and you’ve got this sudden itch all over your body as you gulp down before replying. But as you go to reply, the words get caught in your throat as you hear that voice. The one you’ve never thought you’d hear ever again cutting you off.
“Hey honey, did you find the cereal yet?”, you hear the familiar voice of Tetsurō say as he starts walking down the aisle. You avert your eyes to take in his taller lean figure, his very professional suit, and shorter haircut. His voice changed…it’s deeper and more mature now. The store lights made it difficult to see but you can tell, he wasn’t alone. He had a little girl on his shoulder; looking exactly like him. I guess it’s not just Alisa Haiba…It’s Alisa Kuroo. “Yeah just a sec!” Alisa replied while quickly grabbing the cereal after some very intense eye contact with you.
“You got my favorite, Thank you so much mommy!” the little girl tells Alisa as she waves the cereal in front of her child’s face as they walk away. That’s right, it’s been years since you last seen him. He has a whole family with the girl he wronged you with for months. After all he’s done, he still gets a happy ending. Which this all leaves you thinking about how maybe in another dimension you would’ve gotten yours.
You’re still happy for him, you’re glad even. He’s doing great, better than he was with you. Maybe this wasn’t so bad. All you wanted was for him to be the best, right? Maybe she brings that side out in him
okay guys this is my first FULL one shot….how we feeling 😗 please do not do too much on me….I MADE THIS FOR MY FRIEND SO I HOPE SHE LIKES IT 😣
