Michael swore it didn’t bother him. But it bothered him so much. You were going to be playing mixed doubles. And with another man??

He turned to ness, “Do you think that her fans will ship them?”

the boy didn’t know what to say that would not make him explode. “She is not really your girlfriend, Micha. I think you should speak to her”

“You did not answer my question Ness.” He huffed and grabbed his phone.

Sae isn’t loud about his feelings. But this was eating at him. He stared at the post and the more he scrolled through the comments shipping the two of you, the concerned about the status of your relationship he got.

It was the day of the finals. The sweat dripped off your forehead in the final minutes of the match.

The match was a tie. You and your partner were exhausted. It was especially hard on you as the opponents were targeting you specifically thinking you were the weakest link.

“you take the last point” your partner throws you a smile. “go on”

the next whistle blows.

final rally begins.

The silence of the crowd was deafening. They were anticipating a win from the prodigy.

Ten. Twenty. Thirty shots nobody misses, nobody yields.

Suddenly, the opponent makes a blunder. A high ball across the court, at just the precise height you had calculated.

The sweat pierced your eyes but your vision was clear. That shot was yours.

The audience was on their toes, holding their breath expecting your partner to take the hit. But he didn’t. you did. In a leap of faith you jump. SMASH. WINNER!

The crowd erupted in cheers.

michael told you he was attending your finals. you didnt believe him. he usually skips out on these matches. so its safe to say you were shocked when you saw him sitting next to your coach.

still drenched in sweat and heaving with exhaustion and excitement after your victory, you ran up to him. "DID YOU SEE ME? I WON! I MADE THE SHOT!" the words spilled out. "yes i did schatz. you did well" before you could utter a single word, pulls you into a kiss. right there in public. no warning whatsoever.

he was calm and stoic, basically being himself. but inside he was proud of you. he knew you were good but how you performed during this match surpassed his expectations and it changed his perspective on your passion and career.

he waited for you in the locker room, with nothing more than a towel and a bottle of water. when he saw you he just pulled you into a deep hug.

and that was more than enough praise and congratulations from him.
