Growing up Atsumu had been told that he “was selfish and only cared and thought about himself” and for years he thought it was true; until he met you that is. You had taken over his thoughts. You started dating in your second year. You were an exchange student living in the dorms, and now here you are walking down the busy side walk window shopping with your boyfriend. As you walk by all the shops you go into a small jewelry store that you quite liked. You had boughten a few things from there because it was nice to have some jewelry that didn’t turn ur skin green. As you both walked around the store looking at everything you stopped by the rings and looked them over. You pointed to a simple sterling silver ring with a single diamond sitting upon it. “if you ever propose to me it should be with that ring” you told atsumu jokingly. “That one? Really?” He replied sounding jokingly offended. The ring was pretty cheep as cheep as a wedding ring can be anyway; it was only about 45-50 dollars. “Baby right after we graduate in 2-3 weeks I sign with the jackals and start practice I think I can afford a nice ring” he states with a cocky grin. “I’m not saying you can’t afford it but why buy some thousand dollar ring when I love that one?” U ask with a chuckle as you walk to look at the rest of the jewelry. As you’re waiting in the checkout line you notice his hand sticking out infront of u and you look at him confused. “Here gimme ur thing and I’ll check out.” He says with a smile. you roll your eyes and hand him ur stuff and the money to pay for it but he just gives the money back. “I got it darlin go get us some icecream from the shop outside so by the time I get outa this line we’ll have the ice cream. It will save us some time.” You give him a disapproving look before you walk out and go to wait in yet another line to get ice cream. Though atsumu did in fact pay for your stuff he payed for a little something else too. He loved you with all of his heart. He can think now of how good this ring will look on your finger when ur wearing ur cap and gown. He takes a minute when he’s laying in his bed at night to think abt his  decision and now he’s most definitely sure it’s the right one. The way u interact with his brother, how you help his mom with cooking and cleaning when you’re over, how when he was stressed over how he was gonna manage everything with volleyball you sat him down and explained that him and his health comes first, then volleyball, then his family, and then you. So when he find himself down on his knee at a graduation “party” you atsumu and osamu were having a week before graduation he knows that this is forever. And through ur blur of tears u look at the ring he’s putting on ur finger and laugh “Atsumu u idiot” you say in a mix of laughter and tears. It was not the ring you picked out well it was the atsumu version of it. It was in fact sterling silver and it had a diamond in the center but the center diamond was about 2-3 times the size and it had smaller diamond around the whole ring with the words “always and forever” engraved on the inside.
