akaashi is claustrophobic.

ever since that incident in third grade when his bullies locked him in the bathroom, he couldn’t breathe in tight spaces.

akaashi couldn’t even stand it when bokuto squeezes himself under the table when he is sulking.

the sight of bokuto curling over his knees made him sick, he also couldn’t bear to see bokuto upset.

“bokuto, please get out from there.”

“my spikes sucked today.” bokuto mumbled, his head stuck in between his knees.

“come out and we’ll talk.” akaashi begged, if he continued looking at bokuto, he might throw up.

konoha strolled past and noticed the pale look on akaashi’s face,”are you okay? you look sick.”

bokuto quickly peeked from under the table to look at akaashi.

“akaashi, are you claustrophobic?” bokuto asked as he slowly crawled out.

akaashi finally took a deep breath once he saw bokuto standing in front of him, “yes i am.”

ever since that day, bokuto made sure to avoid taking elevators and going to crowded places when he is out with akaashi.

even when they went on a date to the amusement park, bokuto really wanted to take the ferris wheel but did not bring it up so that akaashi wouldn’t feel bad.

it was bokuto’s turn to take care of akaashi.

however, thanks to an accident involving a drunk driver,

akaashi walked past the coffin bokuto laid in, he really wanted to crawl into the small tight space to hug bokuto one last time.
