"Good afternoon sleepy head," Tsukishima chirped. "So are you gonna tell me why you drank so much last night." He said handing you a glass of water and paracetamol.

"What time did we get home." You asked, "how did you even know I was at Mei's..."

"Babe look at your phone..."

"Hmmm why."

"Just go onto your snap okay."

"Okay..." you said suspiciously, "holy fuck. What the fuck is that..." you yelled in shock.

"Shit ,shit, shit ,shit shit." You said deleting the things on your story. "I didn't know I posted them-" You began.

"Thought you didn't , so I screenshotted it all.." Tsukishima laughed. "Oh and check our messages shortcake, I'm sure you'll love them."

"Kei, I'm sorry..." you began , "don't be it was entertaining to read." He laughed, "at least I know you love me."

"Shut up," you said slapping him in the shoulder. "So both you and Akiteru went home huh? That's suspicious..."

"Yup, I went to my mums with him after training." Kei said. "Ahh really?" You asked, "what for..."

"Oh ya know... just Mei's hand in marriage."

"Wait what?" You exclaimed.

"Oh you heard me..."

"Kei, your brother is finally proposing."

"Mmhmm tonight..."

"You're joking."

"Nope."

"Mei is gonna be so damn happy, oh my god."

"Yup and he needs our help."

"Shit really , lemme go shower then we can go." You smiled jumping up out of the bed.

"Babe, aren't you hungover?"

"Not anymore , plus everyone knows the best way to get rid of one is more alcohol."

"Yeah no... You're not drinking for this," Kei said sternly. "I'll make you a hangover breakfast go shower."

"Okay dad, damn."

"That's daddy to you."

"Boy if you don't shut up with your daddy issues," you nudged him. "Okay I'm gonna get in the shower now love you." You kissed him quickly on the lips and ran off to the bathroom to get ready.

One you got out you smelt the wonderful aroma of bacon, sausages and eggs.

"Mmm that smells good," you called as you entered the kitchen. Kei smiled, "glad the chef approves. Sit down it's ready." You sat on the table and Kei sat on the opposite side.

"Thanks babe," you said taking a mouth full of food. "This actually tastes good, maybe you should cook more often..."

"Maybe..." he trailed off. You quickly thought back to his bad eating habits and instantly felt bad.

"So what does your brother want us to do..." You asked, attempting to change the subject. Kei smiled, "all he wants us to do is distract Mei for most of the day. Like take her to get her nails done or something, you got with that."

"Yeah I'm chill with that, can I get mine done too..."

"Yeah sure I'll pay for you if you want." Kei offered.

"You being for real Tsukki."

"Mmhmmm, why not. I can even get you some hair too."

"Am I dreaming..."

"Shortcake."

"Shut up let me bask in the moment," you exclaimed. You took a deep breath and smiled, "okay basking done."

Tsukishima chuckled, "wanna set off once we finish eating."

"That's fine with me." You said taking a mouthful of food, "this shit is good."

"Learned from the best."

"Now don't flatter me boy," you said to Kei as he laughed.

—————————————————

"So what's the story you're telling Mei?" Kei asked.

"You're taking me out for nails and we want her to come, I'm gonna tell her it's a little hang over pick me up. Plus I'll buy her food. It should work. I'm 100% sure it will work," you said as you drove the car.

"Right okay, that's a good idea. Akiteru should be in so I'll tell him to give her some money too." He said, "I'm not paying for her too. She has expensive taste. Too expensive for my liking."

"Tsukishima you're such a cheap," you giggled, "but I get you. Mei could clear my bank account with one shopping trip."

"She has cleared my bank account , with half a shopppng trip. I promised myself to never take her shopping again after that, so yeah. Akiteru can give her the money."

You nodded as you parked the car into Mei's area. "Okay we're here let's go."

—————-

"Get in loser we're going shopping," you said dangling your car keys as you entered Mei's apartment.

"We are!" She squealed, she was already dressed just chilling on her sofa.

"Yes so come on bitch. Well we're actually getting our nails done but same thing. So let's go."

"Damn I'm coming , I'm coming." She smiled.

"Teru give her some money I'm not paying for your girl again."

"Y/n look at your cheep ass boyfriend, how do you even want him?" Akiteru laughed.

"At least he pays for me," you said smugly.

"Damn okay, Mei here don't spend too much." He said handing her his bank card. "Love you baby," Mei sung , kissing him on his cheek before rushing to the door.

"What are you guys waiting for , hurry up." She called to you and Kei. Both of you rolled your eyes and walked over to her. "See you later bro," Kei said to Akiteru. "Call me when you're done."

Akiteru nodded and you instantly knew this was about the proposal. In all honesty you didn't know what he had planned and you were kind of excited.

"I call shotgun!" Mei squealed as she saw you two approach the car.

"Urm no... There's no way I'm sitting at the ba-"

——

"Now why the fuck am I sat in the back." Kei said, "this is my damn car."

"Okay and? I'm driving aren't I?" You laughed, "it's okay babe you can sit in the front on the way back."

"Nah I don't want too."

"Tsukishima Kei , you shall sit in the front on the way back!" You demanded.

"Okay damn, only if you insist." He said smugly. "You sneaky mother fucker, you baited her into that. Didn't you ?" Mei said.

"No I would never do that," Kei smiled. "No take backs by the way."

"Fuck you Tsukishima Kei."

"Oh shortcake wouldn't mind doing that," he smirked.

"Guys let me drive in peace, not in pieces. But yes I would not mind doing that at all...."

"Y/n you're instigating it..." Mei laughed.

"Shush, this is your front seat rights have been revoked." You sarcastically said to her. "Anyways we're here."

——————

"So how much is too much?" Mei asked as you were in the shop choosing your nails.

"Girl just get some acrylics and go. What's he gonna say?" She looked at you and smiled, "you know what you're right. I'll get these..."

"Babe, those are actually kinda expensive..." you trailed off.

"Fine, fine. I guess I'll get these then." She said pointing out a pastel yellow set. "Good idea we can't have Akiteru going broke." Kei said.

"I'm basically that man's sugar mommy, there's no way he'd go broke with me around." She said. "Especially when he decides to put a fucking ring on it."

"Kei do you think he'd marry me?" She asked him.

"Maybe one day Mei. My brother is an idiot, so I don't actually know."

Mei sighed, and showed the lady the second design. "Please can I have these." "Can I also have the letter A on my ring finger and a T on my ring finger on the opposite hand." She nodded and started doing her nails.

"Go with baby blue," he said as he sat down next to you.

"Hmmm why?" You asked.

"It's a nice colour , it would suit you." He says.

"Okay fine..." you say showing the lady the design you want.

"Can she also have a "K" and "T" on her ring fingers." Tsukishima asked. The lady smirked, "of course young man."

"Are you claiming me..." You asked him. "So what if I am," he answered with. You just shook your head , "idiot." You muttered.

—————

"So what's the plan? How's he proposing." You asked Kei, he just shrugged. "Don't ask me, I have no clue. Mei said she's all for public proposals to him once though so I think he might go with a restaurant proposal."

"Man public proposals are scary, it's way too much pressure."

"I very much agree, when I propose to you. I promise it will just be me and you. And I promise it will be our moment and our moment alone." Kei said.

"I love you, you know that right..."

"Mmhmm. I love you too shortcake."

"You guys are cute, it reminds me of my husband and I back in the day... Then we had kids..." The nail lady said. "Word of advice , don't have kids they are idiots."

Both of you laughed at the woman doing you're nails, she didn't seem old at all, in fact she looked quite young. Maybe early thirties, late twenties.

"We're still together though, I love that fool of a man." She said, "we met when we were sixteen , and still love as if we were eighteen. Is that too much information... Well anyways I'm wishing you guys the best."

"Thank you. I'm wishing you and your husband the best too" you said back to her.

"So is that the young lady getting proposed too, she's pretty." She said looking over at Mei. You both nodded, "don't worry I'll keep my lips sealed." She winked.

At this point Kei got a call from Akiteru, "hey bro. I've made my arrangements. Whenever you're done come back to my place with y/n and Mei and...." Akiteru said through the phone. He had walked away by this point so that's all you had heard.

"So..." you said once he came back.

"So..." we're all going for dinner once your nails are done, but we're gonna go back to Mei's place to change and stuff. You okay with that?"

"Yeah I'm good, are we going to my restaurant." You asked.

"Mmhmm, apparently Akiteru made plans with Osamu but we shall see..."

"Damn I'm excited."

"You and me both."

"Why are you guys excited?" You heard Mei say from behind you.

"I'm excited to see how our nails will turn out Mei." You said quickly.

"Oh well mine are done wanna see?" She asked, "mmmhmm." You nodded as she showed you them.

"Beautiful," you said.

"Yours are now done too." The lady said. You thanked her and gave her a tip for being a nice person.

"Ooo they are pretty." Ariana said, " didn't peg you for a blue person though..."

"Blame Kei," you rolled your eyes. "Anyways are you ready to go back to yours now?"

"Mmhmmm lets go. Come on Kei, I wanna show Akiteru my nails." Mei smiled.
