Falling for someone who wasn’t reserved for you.

It’s sad but it’s the truth. Tsukishima was your type entirely. Tall , glasses , smart , and utterly sarcastic. You couldn’t help but fall for him. But to him— you were just his friend. You really don’t get the hint do you? So when you saw him staring at the soft and shy girl in your guy’s math class for longer than necessary.You couldn’t help but wonder if you actually had a chance but you knew better.

You didn’t.

So you toned it down a bit.

You stopped sitting next to him at lunch and instead just across so she can sit next to him

You stopped giving him snacks so it was her job.

You stopped talking to him so much it almost felt like you weren’t even trying anymore.

And he still liked her more than you. And maybe it’s better to conceal the truth for you , and him. So you just stuck with him. But at an arm length distance. After a few weeks you found out she liked him too , started showing up to practice with him , started talking to him more , until they finally started a relationship.

Yet, you kept falling for him. But you knew not to fall for someone who wasn’t reserved for you
