Valentine’s Day with Kiyoomi was… unconventional. Not because he forgot (he didn’t). Not because he didn’t care (he did, in his own Sakusa way). But because the entire day, he acted like it was just another Thursday.

No elaborate surprises. No grand gestures. Just Sakusa being Sakusa—mildly exasperated by the public displays of affection around him, dodging people who tried to hand him chocolates, and side-eyeing his teammates when they teased him about his “mysterious Valentine.”

But when the two of you finally had a moment alone, away from the chaos, he surprised you.

“You think I didn’t plan anything?” he murmured, pulling a small, neatly wrapped box from his bag. His cheeks were dusted pink, but his eyes were steady as he handed it over.

Your heart stuttered. “You actually got me something?”

“Tch. Of course, I did. What kind of boyfriend do you take me for?” He huffed, crossing his arms. “I just don’t see the point in flaunting it like a show-off.”

You smiled, carefully unwrapping the box. Inside, you found a simple but elegant charm bracelet—nothing flashy, but undeniably thoughtful. Each tiny charm represented something personal between the two of you.

You looked up at him, warmth spreading through your chest. “Kiyoomi…”

He shifted awkwardly, avoiding your gaze. “Don’t make a big deal out of it.”

You laughed softly, stepping closer. “Thank you.”

His fingers twitched—like he wanted to reach for you but was still debating if it was worth it. Eventually, with a dramatic sigh, he tugged you forward, pressing a fleeting kiss to your temple before immediately pulling away.

“Happy Valentine’s Day,” he muttered.
