“I told you it was going to rain today.”

Kuroo laughs lightly, chest rumbling against Bokuto’s spine as he spikes the ends of his already spiked hair. “I’m starting to think you hair can tell the weather.”

Clouds roll in, darkening the atmosphere outside their tiny home, loud but comforting in their arrival. Bokuto glances toward the open window, caged and content in the space between Kuroo’s legs, admiring the succulents he pushed out onto the windowsill earlier as they await the rainfall that’s sure to come..

“Yeah? I’m like that one girl from Mean Girls-minus the boobs though.”

“Which one?”

Bokuto’s face screws up, trying to conjure up her appearance. “Uuuh, the blonde one? You know-typical cliche ‘dumb’ blonde. Kinda hot too.” …show more content…

Time ticks by, neither of them bothered to care, both taking full advantage of their off day to laze about. But a sudden clap of thunder shakes the ceiling and with it the drone of heavy, fat droplets falling begins, startling Bokuto.

He stirs against Kuroo only for the arms wrapped around him to tighten as the owner tries their best to stay asleep, nuzzling into the crook of Bokuto’s neck.

But Bokuto has other plans.

Hands reach up again to twist mussed up hair between his fingers, he states, voice light and soft, “It’s raining now.”

Kuroo’s heart is fast and racing when he breaks apart, panting. He kisses the corners of Bokuto’s mouth. His lips are wet and swollen, a cherry red, and Kuroo restrains the desire to lose him himself against it.

“Was this your plan all along, get me out into the rain and then woo me like some cliche romance?”
