Chapter Text

“And here on the court is Hiro Bokuto! He may be young, but at the ripe age of 19, he is climbing up the ranks to be the next world champion in men’s tennis! Wait…Bokuto? I know that name!”

 

“Yep, Bokuto Kotaroū was the #1 player in the world for a while, before he retired. I wonder if he’s here now?”

 

“It could be a different Bokuto, though.”

 

“I dunno, man. Bokuto is a pretty uncommon last name.”

 

“Hey Sharon, can you scope the stands?”

 

 

 

 

Bokuto looked up to see himself and Akaashi on the Jumbotron, arms around each other.

 

 

 

 

“You found him! Wait. Who is that next to him?”

 

“I reckon that’s Akaashi Keji. He was the #2 player and played doubles with Bokuto.”

 

“No no no- I know who that is- I mean- they seem pretty close now.”

 

“They did kiss on live TV. You were there.”

 

“Yeah but- OH MY GOD! YOU’RE SEEING WHAT I’M SEEING, RIGHT?! SHARON, I’M QUITTING MY JOB IF AKAASHI KEJI AND BOKUTO KOTAROŪ AREN’T WEARING MATCHING WEDDING RINGS RIGHT NOW!”

 

 

 

 

Akaashi and Bokuto held their hands up, the light reflecting on their matching rings.

 

 

 

 

“OH MY FUUUUUU$*%@+^”

Notes:

Ahhhh! That’s the end :( I’m sad to have finished it so quickly, but it was really nice to write a story again. I remember my teachers in elementary school would push me to be a writer because of how much I could write. I haven’t had much inspiration, but getting back into fanfics and such has brought that part of me back out again. Honestly, it’s super relaxing to just lay down and write for hours. Though I really do wish I took more time and wrote more, this came out the way I wanted it to.I definitely procrastinated my homework for this, but it’s ok! ƪ(˘⌣˘)ʃ Iwaoi football AU will be written at some point (did you see the reference heeheehee), so keep your eyes peeled for that! Lots of love <3333

Notes:

A personal thank you for going through the trouble to start reading this fanfic from me, it means so much!!
