When he pulls the “not saying ‘ily’ back” prank
Tumblr media
but with a twist…
—image reads: “i love you, i love you, don’t cry”
warnings/ notes: TIMESKIP MENTIONS (Kageyama), angst (omg finally??), broken/insecure relationships, married relationships, fluff, cursing, pregnancy (Atsumu), long reading (GLHF)
part 2, part 3
Kageyama, Atsumu (fem!reader) || reader
♢ Kageyama ☄. *. ⋆
“Really? I have to wait another whole day to see you?” you grumble against your phone to your athlete husband on the other end.
He had planned to come early to your shared home in the US after a long trip from the pro-game in Japan.
“Yeah, it sucks. If only they didn’t cancel the damn flight. Ugh.” Kageyama groans. “I gotta go. Ushijima-san is calling me. Bye, honey.”
“Aw, okay.” The solemn tone in your voice makes his heart crack.
Because of the time he spent focusing on volleyball, he had to make up for all the times he missed out with you.
Even though you never complained, he knew he was a terrible husband for it.
That’s why your husband has a whole surprise for you.
That’s why he’s not actually still in Japan.
And that is why he’s sitting in the car, outside your home with a lot of gifts and your favorite snacks from Japan that he knew you love.
Before hanging up, you end with your usual parting phrase. “Talk to you later, Tobio. Love you.”
“See you.” He smirks, having a cruel idea.
After a long pause, you speak. “Tobio?” you elongate the ‘o’ at the end of his name.
“Yes, sweetheart?” he says, grinning.
“Say it.” You say, sternly.
“Say what?” He asks, innocently.
What he doesn’t know is that you thought he was being genuine.
“Forget it, Kageyama,” you grit. “Bye.” And with that, you hung up.
Ooh. The last name. [Y/N]’s real mad, he thinks to himself.
You, on the other hand start overthinking things.
Did he really forget? Oh my god. He’s fallen out of love for me, hasn’t he…I knew this would happen. And it’s partially my fault for not communicating with him.
Your thoughts go in a spiral and before you know it, tears start trickling down your cheeks.
You grab a kitchen towel and sat down at the empty dining table, drowning yourself in your miserable thoughts
Because you knew you still love him and there’s nothing you want more in this world than to see him happy
Maybe you don’t make him happy. Maybe playing volleyball is his escape from you.
Kageyama waits in the car, for a minute longer thinking you’d call back.
When you don’t, he rushes out with his bags and opens the door with his keys.
The living room door opening makes you jump
“Y/N?” His voice makes you go pale.
“What the hell?” You whisper, feeling both excited and nervous that he’s home.
You plan to hide your tears but it was too late as Kageyama rushes straight to you, giving you a huge hug.
“Y/N! Surprise! Babe, I missed you so much. You know I was just tric—y/n?” He stops mid-sentence when he hears you sniffle. He pulls away to observe your face, his heart almost stopping, and his smile now gone.
“D-do you still love me?” you ask, voice shaking a little.
At this point, you couldn’t stop your tears as they fell, though, you attempt to blink them
Nothing but regret filled his heart.
“Fck,” he cursed to himself. “I’m. So. Sorry. Holy shit. I’m so sorry. I’m an idiot.” He mentally punches himself.
It never occurred to him that you've been questioning his sincerity in your relationship.
Small whimpers escape your lips as you try to hold back your cries.
“I love you sooooo much. You don’t understand,” he starts, inhaling with shaky breaths and clinging to you. His hand softly caresses your hair. “I love you. I love you, please don’t cry.” Kageyama feels a lump in his throat as he says those words.
But it only made you crumble down harder
He, himself, is breaking. A tear, falling down his cheek, is evident of it.
You both know that this crying session is long overdue
After many moments of feigning laughs and the words “im ok”, it’s about time that you tell him the truth
And you both know you have a lot to talk about now that he’s back.
he intends on fixing this marriage and he’ll do whatever it takes to erase all the doubt that you’ve had before
Because there is absolutely no doubt in his heart, mind, body, and soul that he still loves you
♢ Atsumu ☄. *. ⋆
It all started off as a silly joke to him
He thought that maybe this would be a great way to lighten up the gloomy mood you’ve been in for the past few days
Boy was he wrong
Going on his way to the gym for a quick workout, he pretends to forget his usual “i love you”s whenever he departs
“Tsumu,” you say, in a scolding voice as you relax on the edge of the living room couch. “Aren’t you forgetting something?”
You watch your husbands back straighten.
“Hmm, I don’t think so,” he answers cooly, hand on the doorknob.
He turns around to say his final parting words
He almost breaks his facade when he looks at your face
“you really don’t?” You pout, your bottom lip quivering. But you quickly bite it, trying to hide the fact that you’re about to cry
“No.” The dumbass thinks you’re r fake crying, so he continues with his jesting, keeping a straight face.
You’re ur not sure why you’ve gotten so emotional lately
You’re usually making jokes and playing along with him but now is NOT the time for these type of jokes
Probably because of the human growing inside you and your hormones going batshit crazy
And… Atsumu has been looking tired these days
What if he’s grown tired of you, what if…he doesn’t want the baby?
You look down, blinking back tears
You hear the door shut.
Huh, he left.
With your eyes to the carpeted floor, you wipe the blurry vision from your eyes using the sleeve of your sweater
When you suddenly feel two strong arms wrap around you
“I love you, I love you, don’t cry” Atsumu’s voice whispers, repeating many more words of affirmation as he feels your shoulders shake.
He hadn’t left. He merely just closed the door and leaned against it, watching your actions intently before face palming himself bc he realized that he utterly fucked up
And his words make your tears spill more
You feel his lips press against your cheek, his own tear staining on your cheek
“I hate you,” you tell him with a glare.
“Er, I hear ya. I’m sorry, love. That was a bad joke. Never doing it again,” he says, apologetically. “I love you, always.”
You sigh. "I know, I'm just feeling a little sensitive right now."
He moves to sit on the couch, pulling you into his lap so he could hug you tighter.
“Are you not going to the gym?” You ask, eyebrow raised.
“Nah, let’s just cuddle today, yeah?” He snuggles his face into your neck, placing a lingering kiss on it.
“You sure? It’s leg day.” You ask, knowing that Miya Atsumu, never skips leg day. And he’d always advertise that when someone compliments his looks.
He pulls back to look you in the eyes, a hand going up to comb through your hair.
The look he gives you never fails to make you blush
“Nah, I’d rather spend time with ya today,” he says, eyes trailing down to your lips. His thumb dances across your bottom lip, and his eyes look back to yours.
Another hand reaches to your stomach, rubbing over it softly, a habit he picked up after your pregnancy whenever you'd sit close like this
It makes your worries of him not wanting to be a father quickly vanish
“Can a’ get a kiss?” He asks quietly. He’s still guilty abt his actions, unsure if you’d even want to kiss him right now.
Yes you were still mad about what he did, but the way he’s making those pitiful, googly eyes makes it difficult for you to resist
You sigh and grab his face to kiss him hard.
His arms wrap tightly around you, as the kiss deepens.
He gleefully sighs, feeling so grateful for moments like this
You are the most precious thing to him and if he can’t make you feel that way, then he knows that he failed his duty as a husband
He promises to do better
Tumblr media
+ a/n: reader’s version (more light-hearted)!
++ I wouldn’t say this is a continuation of that post ^_^

Hi! Im new to this blog and i ADORE your writings very much!! May i request punz and dream (seperate) w/ gn!reader that is selective mute? Bonus if they hear the reader talk for the first time and the reader's voice is just like so?!?!?!? Cute?!?! If thats make sense for you. Thanks! Can i be 🍙 anon? Bye and sorry if this is too long ^^;
Hallo, thank for requesting!
Welcome to my blog and to the family 🍙 anon, hope you enjoy <3
Dream and Punz react to a selective mute! Reader
Tumblr media
Click Here before requesting, please ^^
Reader: GN - They/Them
Kind of like Callahan, you mostly communicate with everyone through texts
You just get too anxious to talk and everybody in the smp repsects that
So you mostly work behind the scenes and sometimes appear for comic relief
Tumblr media
❝ Dream ❞
He was the one that suggested you joined the SMP
You had been a close friend of Callahan, so he befriended you quiet quickly
He also wanted to help you slowly get comfortable around them and maybe talk a little whenever the times comes
So when one day you abruptly called Dream on discord he had to get himself mentally ready
"...hi"
*insert sound of things crashing and falling*
"Oh god, Dream, are you ok???"
"Yup- just wet... everything"
You laughed at his answer
He was so surprised to hear you that he accidentally knocked his water bottle and wet himself
But hearing you talk AND laugh just made him forget what happened
He was just happy that you were comfortable with him
Tumblr media
❝ Punz ❞
You and Punz bonded thanks to Valorant
He secretly adored your little happy texts whenever you would win while he acted all grumpy
You both started texting eachother almost every day, wishing to be able to see eachother even if you were anxious about the idea
But he so happens to have moved close to your house, something you didn't tell him
Why? Because you felt ready to talk to him.
He had always been so patient and kind to you, so you trusted him fully and were more comfortable then ever around him
"H-Hi Punz"
So one day you knocked on his door and...
[also, he knows how you look like]
"Hold on- Y/N- omg I'm so happy to see you!!!"
He had completely disregarded the fact that you just talked, which made you feel more comfortable because it meant that he didn't care that much
You both were just happy to finally be with eachother and were exited for whats to come

Rules for Asks/Requests
Ask me anything! Aren't sure what to ask, check out my About Me post! Honestly though, as long as you aren't being purposefully cruel or a troglodyte, I'm up for any kind of chatter.
Tell me about your OTP/OC/Self-Ship and I'll tell you about mine. Aren't sure what to ask? Here's some suggestions.
-:- Captain Q's Emoji Grand Fleet! -:-
As long as an emoji isn't already taken, you can use it to sign your anonymous asks. Helps me keep track of repeat anons <3 Please don't use anyone else's sign off!
Check the list AT THE END OF THIS POST to see if an emoji is taken or not. Pairs of emojis can be used, you don't have to limit yourself to just one.
As for Requests - currently CLOSED, but!
With requests always be sure to check my pinned post. As a general rule I run events with specific parameters. If you're unsure of the parameters you can always ask or DM, I will clarify anything without aggravation or anger, I promise. ❤️
You do not have to pretend to love my work if you're coming into an event new! But please do humor me with a please or thank you somewhere in your request, it makes me feel warm.
Currently I only write for One Piece I generally only write x Reader or Reader Inserts, but I can write OCs or Canon x Canon. I can write sfw but I generally don't.
I'll write for any One Piece character, but I have historically been not good at a few from a romantic standpoint: Luffy | Franky | Akainu | (Most Marines save Smoker, honestly)
I won't turn down requests with these characters, but know it might not be up to my usual standard.
Tips for asking for a reader-type!
Cis!Fem - afab, uses she/her - doesn't have to be feminine or effeminate. Cis!Masc - amab, uses he/him - doesn't have to be masculine. afab - has a vagina, doesn't typically use she/her, may use any other combination of pronouns and expressions. amab - has a penis, doesn't typically use he/him, may use any other combination of pronouns and expressions. Transmasc - afab, genitalia, pronouns, expression variable. Transfem - amab, genitalia, pronouns, expression variable. Gender Neutral - no descriptions pertaining to gender including genitalia.
REALLY IMPORTANT NOTE: Gender, gender expression and everything gender-adjacent are variable, messy, and beautiful in reality land - my tips are specifically for tagging/writing/expectation purposes and will absolutely NOT cover all possible variations and experiences. It's important to not use them as some sort of end-all be-all guide.

🍉🍙🥫
🍉 What character/story trope do you love
Ok I’m not just saying this to suck up to you but I really do love de-aging fics. I love it when you find out trauma simply through the act of a character acting like their younger self
Obviously Once More w/ Feeling by you (tiny_peach)
Chapter 5 of Five things learned about Tomioka Giyuu, and one thing forgotten by vexfulfolly
and the pint sized pillar au by @ghostbite0
🍙 What story (fanfiction or published work) had the biggest impact on you?
Going Postal and Crow Mail by Sciathan_file are some of my favorite works maybe ever (probably yes ever) they’re oc x Tomioka Giyuu but honestly work as reader inserts (that’s how I read them lol). It’s what inspired me to write my first ever long fic (even though I don’t really like the fic anymore, I finished it like 2 years ago) and also they reply to every single comment left on their works. Like seriously they will respond to every single point you make in a comment which is why I try to do the same with my works :)
🥫What's a scene you've really enjoyed working on?
This is a really hard one… obviously I enjoy writing anything to do w/ Giyuu (despite my fav character being Rengoku, but Giyuu is easier to project onto). I would say I enjoy writing smut the most? Not just bc it’s smut lol but I think exploring how a character would act during sex is really really interesting. For anyone who’s seen The Boys you’ll notice that the characters have sex in very different ways that line up w/ them as people!
Anyways I’m giving two examples, this is from Consumate (part of my Giyuu x Reader series)
There’s a cute little pout on his face as he tries to understand your nonsense. “Should I stop?” His fingers settle back together, giving your walls a chance to relax.
Distracted by his red face and slick lips it takes a few moments to create a proper response. “N-no! I wanna do this with you. It just feels like, like there’s fingers inside me.” You giggle again. Most of the shyness has been washed away, instead replaced by a mixture of pure admiration and desperateness.
(Side note but I love the phrase “cute little pout” and struggle not to overuse it in my fics lol)
and then this is from a current shinogiyuu wip where Tomioka gets turned into a woman
“I can’t seem to get it on.” The problem is immediately clear. Tomioka looks pretty, leaning back on the bed with a hand covering his chest. When she had given him the undergarments instructions had not been included. The bra was both too loose and too tight, handing oddly on his body. For what it’s worth the fabric does manage to cover the majority of his newfound breasts. That doesn’t cure his embarrassment however, a soft pink blush highlighting perfect cheekbones.
(Skipping some non-important in between stuff)
“Does that feel better?”
“It’s…tight.”
“Sorry, that’s just how it is. Now you know the horrors of womanhood.” Despite her light tone Tomioka nods solemnly.

🍥🍙🍠🍱
Btw, you're absolutely incredible!! You write my favourite fanfics and I appreciate you and your friendship so much! You deserve so so much appreciation ♥
Omg Mari you're the sweetest!! thank you so much!! I appreciate you and our friendship so much too!! I am hugging you mentally rn <33
🍥 What's your favorite fic you've written?
Omg this is such a hard one! I feel like my favorite fic is always the one I'm currently writing haha (which rn is a william fic that's taking me ages lol).
But if I had to pick from ones I've already posted, probably Pranked! Normally I try to think more about what other people would want to read, or I try to think a lot about how to make the Reader more relatable to people besides me so people can insert themselves more easily(btw idk if i'm successful, but i always try my best to consider these things!). But for that fic I threw all of that out the window and basically just wrote it for myself haha :P
🍙 Is there a fic you wish had gotten more attention?
If I had to pick one, probably Say Yes!
Honestly, I don't think it's my best work so I'm not upset about it. I think I'm only slightly disappointed because I wrote that fic when I was having some feelings™ and at the time I kinda wanted someone to support me like Chris does in that fic and thought maybe other people would too, but I think it was probably too depressing haha.
Also it probably didn't get as much attention because I don't write him in character well enough, so I probably need to watch Spy again so I can write better fics about him for you guys!! <33
🍠 How long does it take you to write one of your fics or a chapter/part?
Ooooooh man not to be basic, but it depends! If I'm super duper focused I can bang out a fic from blank page to edited and posted in a couple of hours.
But unfortunately I'm a super restless/hyper person irl, I feel the need to get up and lowkey run a lap around my house like every 10 minutes so sometimes it takes a lot longer than that, and because of that it's really hard to give an accurate number of how long it actually takes me to write something sadly! (Maybe I should try timing myself when I'm actively writing bc I'm kinda curious now lol) With the fic I'm currently writing, I swear it took me like 5 hours to write a single paragraph cos I couldn't sit still hahahaha. I kinda wish I wasn't like that so I could get more fics written for you guys, but on the bright side I always get my steps in! :p
🍱 Do you read your own fics?
NO NEVER EW LOL, literally cringe every time I've reread one of my fics
Lmao jk! Tbh I do sometimes reread them when I'm writing a fic for a particular character and I want to check if I've written something similar already because I worry about my fics being too similar to each other. I know to some extent it's probably inevitable because I'm writing them, but I do sometimes skim over previous fics to check I'm not writing the same exact scenario or using the same language or words to describe something. I still cringe when I do that, but I suffer through it to make the fic I'm writing at that time better (hopefully) haha
Thank you so much for your questions btw!! <3 You're the best!!

You deserve it though hon! i know ive said it before, but youre so damn nice-
Oh, thats good! im kinda there with ya! like a 7/10. its a good day but i feel lazy and tired lol!
Also, do you take requests by any chance? i just watched haikyu and im having major hinata and Iwaizumi brainrot lmao! - 🍙 anon
Ah, i don't exactly take requests per se, because i can't guarantee that i'll want to write about something that im not particularly inspired by or into, or something with no details like a generic "hi! can i request a (insert character) x reader drabble, thanks!" -which gives me nothing to work with.
HOWEVER, if there's a scenario or hc or something that's on your mind that you would like to share, send it my way! And if you'd like for me to expound on it and i'm feeling inspired (which i is usually am) by it i might add on to it y'know?
Hope that clear it up for you nonnie!

🎓 When you’re crying at his graduation 🎓
➛ It’s bittersweet. Being happy for his new achievement in life, but this also means life would feel a little more lonely without him next to you.
notes: This was supposed to be for this request. I made a switched roles version where the reader graduates hehe. Anon, I hope you see this one || mostly angst, fluff
[ reader x ]: tsukishima. semi. bokuto.
➛ tsukishima ࿐ྂ *ೃ༄
"Will you stop crying?" the tall, blonde graduate says with a frown.
The ground was littered with confetti which once filled the floral-scented air. Familiar faces around you had already shared their congratulations and greetings with the Karasuno graduates.
You’re in front of him, offering a handmade gift in your hand. All your composure was lost once your eyes met his. Tears welled up, and your hands started to tremble. Especially seeing him up close in his graduation outfit. A reminder that you won’t be seeing each other often anymore.
Tsukki would be busy with his new internship which means less study sessions. No more hanging out between breaks or sharing pieces of your lunch.
He had already taken off his cap, his long locks are messy. Being with Tsukki this long, you knew his question wasn’t out of annoyance. Only his close friends would see the slight concern washing over his eyes. The truth is if you continued to cry, he wouldn’t be able to hold in his own tears.
But it was hard to stop as you brought a hand up to your face, lips quivering. With a grunt, Tsukki grabs you and pulls you closer into a hug.
“What’s wrong? Think I’m gonna leave you? Huh?” You shake your head, choking on incoherent words. “That’s right. I’m not going anywhere, dummy. Who else is gonna tutor you?” He bends his neck, placing a kiss to your forehead. “Can’t have you failing a test. Or even worse—not graduating.” He murmurs. Though, he believes you’re capable of doing great in school without his help.
Your fist tightens around his suit. Tears probably stained the front of his shirt, but he doesn’t care. “Promise?” you finally croak out. He grips your chin, forcing you to look him in the eye.
“I promise, baby.” His sweet tone is rare, but never insincere. As always, it makes your heart clench tightly and brings butterflies in your stomach. A warm feeling creeps up your cheeks while your lips are pulled to his, sealing his promise.
➛ semi ࿐ྂ *ೃ༄
The afternoon sunlight penetrates through the fluttering leaves and branches. A lonesome balloon decorated with words of congratulations is caught between tangled branches. Beneath the tree is where your boyfriend held you close to his chest as you both take in the aftermath of the senior’s graduation.
“Y/N.” he tenderly grazes his knuckles on your wet cheek.
You’ve been silently crying into his shirt. “Sorry,” you say with a sniff. He places a kiss on your cheek.
“It’s okay, baby. I know.” Flashbacks of your memories spent together under this very oak tree enter your mind. The place you’d share your secrets with one another, eventually, your feelings. It became your signature spot. But things won’t be the same now that he’s off to pursue his dreams that he once told you and no one else about. You’re proud of him, but a selfish part of you doesn’t want to see him go.
“3 years…is a long time.”
“It is…” he replies, tears pricking his eyes. He wishes he could just take you with him. However, you have your own aspirations, too. “But I’m calling you everyday. I promise.” Semi takes out a box from his pocket. You gasp as he opens it, revealing two matching silver rings. Promise rings.
The stars in your eyes tell him all he needs to know and he slips one of the rings onto your finger. He places a kiss on top of it as a way to seal his promise.
“I love you,” he whispers, leaning in. You place your hand with the ring on his cheek, lips melding with his. You murmur the same words which is muffled by his kisses, but he already knows.
( + he’d play around with his ring, whenever he gets nervous. it reminds him of you and the thought of you calms his nerves 🥺 boy is counting the DAYS before he gets to see you again <3 )
➛ bokuto ࿐ྂ *ೃ༄
The day was coming to an end. Half of the people already left. Bokuto’s hand is still holding on to yours. He hadn’t let go ever since you gave him a tearful hug, giving him the biggest ‘congrats’ and kisses. Of course, he’d let go of your hand when his friends and family spoke to him, but he made sure to return to you straight away. As if he’s making sure he spends the rest of his time with you before going off to college.
You remember him jumping with glee, hugging everyone on sight, even his sister’s dog when he read the acceptance letter. Everyday was filled with excitement and plans for his college life until it was graduation day. He felt less ecstatic, realizing that you won’t be joining him.
“Hmmph. I’m gonna miss you, baby.” He pouts, wrapping his arms around you.
“Hey, I’ll be attending that school soon! Don’t you be too sad okay, my love?” He nods, pout still visible. You can’t help but give him a kiss and it definitely soothes him a little.
“Remind me to call you everyday.” You nod, but in all honesty, he doesn’t need a reminder. He’s definitely sending you what he has for breakfast; or showing you something cool he saw on the foreign streets. Or facetiming you each night to chat abt his day, or to stay up cramming his exams while your dozing off asleep on the other end.
Tears that you tried so hard to fight start to fall. Bokuto hears you sniff and he immediately pulls away to look at your face.
“Y/n?” he says, sounding concerned. Something about the way he says your name brings you more tears. “Baby? Don’t cry. You’ll make me cry, too.” His voice already sounds quite broken, on the brink of tears.
“I’m proud of you, Ko, but I’m gonna miss you so much.” You sniff, holding him closely. Your face hides in his shirt.
His heart can’t take it. Tears run down his cheeks as he hugs you closer, placing numerous kisses behind your ear. “I’m gonna miss you, too.”
Bokuto has his arm wrapped tightly around you for quite a while now. When you attempt to pull away, he whines.
“NoOo, not yet.”
“Alright, Ko.” Not fighting back, you allow him to hold you a little longer. Truthfully, you didn’t want to let go, either.

Thigh Flirting w ur crush
got this idea from a tiktok where they explained a flirting hack: dropping something and while leaning down to pick it up, use (his) thigh as leverage
pt. 2
warnings: fluff
Iwaizumi, Kenma, Suna
Tumblr media
Mid-conversation, as Iwaizumi chatters away about his new skincare routine that you asked him about, you pretend to drop your pen
Leaning down, you place a hand on his thigh to balance yourself
“Then I apply the aloe face mask…” his voice falters, eyes flickering between your hand on his thigh and the object your reaching for.
He pauses, waiting for you to pick up your fallen item
You slowly rise back up, using his thigh
This action makes him awkwardly cough into his fisted hand.
When you’re finally seated, with your arms back to its place in your lap, you notice his blush
Especially the reddening of his ears
“Hey, you alright, my guy?”
You lean over and gently give his knee a pat
He clears his throat. “Yeah, y-yeah. Um, what was I saying…”
He shakes his head as if to clear thoughts from his mind
“Something about a face mask?” You ask, swiping a tongue on your dry lips.
“Uh, huh, face mask…” For a moment, his gaze goes down to your lips, but it quickly reverts back to your eyes.
“The face mask goes right on the face, yeah.” He pauses, looking to the side, deep in thought. “I gotta go!”
Before you could argue, he speeds out of the room.
And it was that moment that you knew you had some sort of effect on him, making you feel a sense of pride
but also warmth bc you had feelings for him
Tumblr media
After leaning down to adjust your shoelaces, you grab his thigh to support your weight
Kenma’s eyes go wide
he throws the pillow he was hugging and stares right at your hand
He even points at it with his finger. “Ahh, Ah…AHHH!!!” he screams.
“What, what, what, what?!” You immediately retract your hand, thinking there was a bug or something.
“Nuh uh. Nope. Not now. No.” He shook his finger at you.
??? you gave him a questioning look
“Did you just flirt with me?” he asks, an eyebrow raised.
“Uhmmm…”
When it takes you a while to give an actual response, he scoffs. “That’s a first.”
He continues to watch you squirm. “I can actually read you like a book,” he chuckles, mostly to himself.
“You’re funny,” you say almost bitterly, hearing his words.
“Next, time, you can just face me and tell me how you feel, instead of being creepy, HAHAH,” he starts laughing.
You grab his collar, making him pause and stare back at your eyes. “If you could read me like a book then, how come you didn’t ask me out earlier? When I liked you for 5 months?”
Kenma looks genuinely shocked. “5 months? Oh, I thought it was just…now.”
“Looks like someone can’t read me like a book after all, aha!” You cross your arms, smirking.
He grins and grabs your arm and pulls you next to him.
“5 months, huh…” His hoodie is warm as he has you engulfed in his arms.
“Um, h-how about you?” You ask him, nervous, thinking he probably doesn’t share the same feelings.
He places a kiss on your forehead, making you relax a bit. “Hmm, a year.” You spun your head to his grinning face.
“What?!?!”
Tumblr media
As Suna takes his water bottle and downs it, you take the moment to lean down on the ground to grab something
Your hand goes directly on his thigh, placing a little pressure as your lift yourself back up
He quickly stops drinking, gulping the water, and staring at you
“Dude,” he grabs your hand on his thigh, pushing it away.
You pout.
“What?” You ask, pretending to be innocent.
But he can see right through you.
“What do you mean what? You’re getting all touchy,” he wipes off imaginary dust off his lap.
“What’s wrong with that?” You ask.
“Well, for starters, you never act like that. It’s unusual. Weird. It’s like you like me or something. I’m just saying.”
“And if I do?” You ask.
His eyes widen, feeling chills.
“Don’t joke like that.” He scowls.
“Damn, is it really that bad for me to like you?”
His scowl turns into a grin. He leans over to you, hands folded together.
“No, sweetie, it’s actually the opposite.” He leans back, hands now holding the back of his head as he relaxes
“But I’d rather you not like me, because I don’t know what I would do if you did.” He smiles. “So, don’t get all touchy because you’re sending me mixed signals.”
“Okay, no more mixed signals,” you nod. “I like you, Suna Rintarou,” you spit out.
His eyes widen again.
He grabs your hand almost desperately. “A-are you serious?”
“I said your government name. Of course,” you deadpan.
He smiles widely and pulls you into a hug.
“Finally.”
And you melt into his arms at that moment.
Finally, indeed.

Take Your Time 🌙 *ੈ✩‧₊˚
Tumblr media
notes: requested, reader has insomnia. listened to this cover of stuck with you while writing this <3 imagine being sickly in love hah!!
[ fem!reader x ] : atsumu, oikawa, akaashi
Tumblr media
❖ Atsumu *ੈ✩‧₊˚
He would wake from the empty bed
worry takes over his sleepy eyes
already knows the reason as he walks around the house to search for you
Large arms engulf you from behind after you'd just taken a sip of cool water. The glass leaves a wet ring on the kitchen counter. Usually, Atsumu would slip a coaster beneath the cup, but his focus was on you at the moment.
"Sorry," you murmur as he places a kiss on your shoulder.
"Didn't I said ya didn't have to apologize? Ever." Tsumu recounts the first time you apologized for waking him up. He made a promise to himself to chase all your nightmares away.
"Oh. Sor-" you stop yourself, catching on to what you were about to say. Tsumu chuckles before placing another kiss on your cheek. His hands grip your waist, turning you around to face him.
That's when you notice his lazy, yet charming smile that you fell for. His auburn eyes flicker from your lips to your own shimmering orbs. "Wanna watch a movie or somethin'?" he whispers.
Laying in his lap while watching a random film on netflix was always effective in getting you back to sleep. But this time, you were okay with just being in his arms.
"We can just go back to bed, babe." You reach up to kiss his lips.
"Ya sure, angel?" His arms are still wrapped around you, eyebrows scrunching with concern. You give him a reassuring smile and nod, not realizing the effect of your smile on this lovesick athlete.
Atsumu leans in to press a deeper kiss to you. He presses his palm on the back of your neck to urge you closer. You let out a satisfied sigh before he pulls away, leaning his forehead against yours. "Alright, then. Shall we?"
A small giggle escapes you when he swiftly picks you up bridal-style and makes your way into the bedroom. Your nightmares long gone as your thoughts are only filled with him. <3
❖ Oikawa *ੈ✩‧₊˚
Notices immediately when you’re awake
Because you must’ve moved away from his arms as you tried to find a comfortable position to sleep in
He'll start a conversation with you
stays up with you
"Having some trouble, babe?" You were hoping that Oikawa wouldn't be stirred awake from your constant tossing and turning.
"Mhm," you admit guiltily. Though, you had no reason to be guilty. If it weren't for the nightmare, you'd be sound asleep right now.
"Wanna talk about it?" The professional setter’s voice is laced with sleep and his lids are heavy but he’s ready to listen to anything you’ll say. Your troubles were his.
You hesitate for a moment. “It’s alright.”
Not wanting to push you, he nods before reaching his arms to you. “Okay then, come back here. I miss you already.” He says with a more cheerful tone, despite speaking in a low whisper due to just waking up.
You giggle as he tickles your neck with an absurd amount of kisses. “I got you, pretty girl.” He murmurs on your skin.
After a few minutes, Oikawa breaks the comforting silence. “Still awake?” It amazes you how much he could read you like a book. While wondering what gave you away, he brushes a bunch of your hair away from your face, revealing your blushing cheeks and fluttering lashes. Features of you that never fails to make his heart clench.
“I can’t sleep,” you admit, biting your lip. Oikawa slides his thumb against your bottom lip, pulling it from your teeth.
“It’s okay, baby. Take your time. We can stay up until you feel comfortable enough to sleep.” You feel his thumb lift to your cheeks, rubbing along the skin. A smirk appears on his lips. “How about we talk about how well I did yesterday? Mind repeating your words?” He recalls the last game where he landed countless power serves and controlled sets. Right after, you had jumped on him, telling him how ‘cool and sexy’ he looked on court. You couldn’t believe the talented setter was your boyfriend.
“Hmm. ‘Sexy’? Was it? And ‘cool’?” Oikawa grins. “Mind elaborating on that, pretty?”
“And annoying,” you add with a tongue poking against your cheek. He rolls his eyes, still grinning. “I still love you, Tooru.”
He pulls you in tighter. “Ahh, y/n…I love you. So fckn much.” He spends the next few moments pouring out his heart and love for you, reminiscent of the day he first confessed to you. It took him a couple minutes to realize that you’re already dozing off and he’s been talking to himself.
The one time he doesn’t catch on. A look of adoration fills his expression before he nuzzles his chin above your head and falling into a deep slumber himself.
❖ Akaashi *ੈ✩‧₊˚
so incredibly doting!! it's sick!!
rubbing your skin soothingly
holding you in his lap
soft headpats
“Those dreams again, huh?” Akaashi had been awake, working on his writing. He noticed you mumbling in your sleep, fingers and nose twitching in discomfort. A habit you picked up since you started having nightmares.
Before he could get a chance to gently shake you awake, your eyes flutter open, brows furrowed. Hearing his voice, you peer up at Akaashi with his back leaning against the bed frame. The only thing filling the silence that follows is the ongoing rain drops of rain pattering against the glass window.
After tearing off his glasses, he places his laptop aside, maneuvering himself to your side and laying his head against the soft pillow. You could almost read each other’s mind through facial expressions as you face each other.
“Don’t worry. I’m here, baby.” he says when he sees the pained look on your face. “Relax.” A kiss is pressed on top of your head as a sign of reassurance. You feel his hands rubbing along your back and then massaging at your waist.
You definitely calmed down a little from his intimate actions. It’s like his fingers were imbued with magical healing powers. Sometimes you wonder if he was a guardian angel sent from the heavens to make your life easier.
“Want water or anything?” Akaashi checks the temperature on your forehead just in case.
Phew, no fever. Akaashi thinks.
“Sure, I think that’ll help.” The urge to sleep slowly seeps away from your body as you sit up, ready to leave the bed, but your boyfriend stops you.
“It’s okay, love. I got it for you.” Before you could protest, he hops off the mattress and leaves the room. It doesn’t take a while for him to enter again with a glass. You mutter a ‘thank you’ before downing the drink and leaving the empty glass on the nightstand.
“Let me know what else you need. I’ll be here. Okay?” He returns to his original seat on the bed, pulling you into his lap this time.
One side of your cheek squishes against his fabric-covered thigh as you respond “Okay.” With a light-hearted chuckle, he presses a kiss onto your exposed cheek, moving all the strands of hair in the way.
From the way he looks at you, one can tell that this man would move mountains for you. (He would) And if getting rid of your nightmares is his duty, he will do his best to fulfill it.

awkward hq boys first time trying to cheer up their manager
Ushijima, Kageyama, Sakusa || manager!reader
warnings: cursing, slight angst, fluff
notes: Reader is the club’s manager, kinda went overboard with each of them (long reading GLHF), all takes place in the gym, relationships are up for interpretation!!
Tumblr media
your (now ex) boyfriend had broken up with you over text
it was so sudden
and the timing was AWFUL
because you were about to have a little meeting with the team at the gym
Where you always needed to be focused on taking notes for what the team needs
There is no space for distraction. Nationals is soon
Sniffing away snot and wiping tears away from your face, you stand up straight and walk into the gym, a clipboard in your hand
As usual, you were one of the first to arrive
And as usual, the captain of the vb club sits at on the second row of the bleachers changing his shoes
Before you could leave to find some space to recollect yourself, Ushijima calls you over
He probably heard your loud squeaky shoes sliding against the floor when your turned to leave
“[Y/N]-chan,” his voice fills the silent gym.
You clear your throat before sending a big smile. “Hey, Ushijima-san!”
Walking over, you wave at him. “Can I help you with something?”
“I know the meeting hasn’t started yet, but I wanted to ask you to—” he pauses mid-sentence when his eyes found yours.
Your heart rises a little, feeling anxious
Oh no. Did he notice?
“Um,” he starts. “Are you alright?”
fuck, he did.
“Yeah, I’m fine.” You say, nonchalantly. You made sure there is no hint of emotion in your voice, although, in doing so, it almost came off rude.
“Ok, then,” Ushijima says, hesitating. “Well, as I was saying…”
You tried your best to focus
But his question rings in your head over and over again
Are you alright?
It is enough to have you burst into tears once again
Those tears quickly escalate and your shoulders start to shake as you drop, squatting on the floor
You begin to cry quietly into the palm of your free hand, the other clutching the clipboard tightly to your chest
It makes his eyes widen and mouth slightly part in surprise
He jumps over the bleachers and squats down beside you
“I-if that’s too much to ask for, then I apologize. You don’t need to find other managers! I-I’m sorry if that offended you. You’re a great manager. We’re all grateful for all the work that you do for us.” Ushijima scratches his head, unsure if what to say next as you try to muffle cries in your hand.
He gives you a moment to calm yourself, awkwardly patting your shoulder.
He wishes he could think of a way to make you stop crying but other than giving you pats, he’s out of ideas
You shake your head, letting out a small “no”, sniffing a bit
Pulling his hand away, he continues to wait for more from you.
You finally speak up after wiping your face again, but your eyes remain toward the ground
“Sorry, it’s just…My boyfriend just broke up with me. And I guess I’m being too emotional right now. I think your idea is great. I will keep that in mind,” you say, before wiping your eyes w the back of your hand on again, and standing up.
He quickly stands up, mirroring your actions
“Do you want to talk about it?” he asks quietly, eyes still never leaving your puffy ones.
“Um…” you think about it for a second. “No, but thank you though. P-please excuse me for a minute.” You walk to the bathroom to wash your face, leaving Ushijima alone on the bleachers again.
He paces back and forth, thinking what to do
Nothing comes to mind so he texts Tendou
His text: Tendou, [y/n] is crying. What do I do. Please answer ASAP. She’s in the bathroom right now and will return any minute.
Tendou: I’m almost there, just wait.
Ushijima taps his feet impatiently
When you return, he quickly freezes, facing you
The first thing he says: “could you help me gather the balls?”
He thought maybe having a duty will distract you from sad thoughts
During the meeting, he would steal glances at you, checking on you
For the rest of the day, he would do the same thing: ask you to do a favor
But never alone, he would join you in completing task
And make conversation while he’s at it
“Did you know that in 1996, beach volleyball became a part of the Olympics? Really cool.”
And by conversation, mostly him teaching you volleyball stuff
Sometimes would say stuff you already know like: “Can you believe no high school in our district can compete with us, so we have to compete against colleges or schools outside the Miyagi Prefecture?” he’d say while helping you mop up the gym floor
Even though it wasn’t his duty to mop today
But his absurd questions would literally make you start laughing
Like, why is he telling me all this stuff that I already know??
Sadness no longer lingers in your eyes
It makes Ushijima chuckle, proud to see you smile again
He knows what he’s saying is nonsense but if it gets you to smile again, he’ll keep doing it
Tumblr media
You stare at the grade you’ve got: 54 out of 100
Chemistry was not an easy class
You really tried but you probably just needed to study more
What made you extremely upset was the fact that you have As in every other class except this one
You just have to do better
but you always tell yourself this which makes you frustrated
It leaves your heart feeling heavy
You walk into the gym with heavy footsteps, shoulders drooped down
The sound of a ball bouncing against hardwood can be heard
You look up and see the familiar tall figure
Kageyama Tobio
He’s practicing his serves by himself, throwing a number of volleyballs over the net
He notices you and gives a slight nod, holding one volleyball to his chest
You send a smile and wave
He grunts before continuing his practice
You look back at your phone and scroll through your test answers provided by the teacher
When you notice a lot of minor mistake you made, you groaned
Really? I’m so stupid! OMG, you internally complain, giving yourself a facepalm
Being the perfectionist, this made you frustrated
To the point where you had to click your phone off, placing your head in your hands as you sat on the bench
Some tears threaten to escape
With your face hidden in your hands, you hear the sound of bouncing balls stop
Footsteps slowly approach you
and you hear a familiar deep voice:
“[Y/N], did Hitoka-chan and Kiyoko-san not come with you?” the setter asks, flipping the ball in his hand.
“Uhh, no,” you say, your voice croaking a bit. Your face doesn’t leave from your hands and it makes Kageyama concerned
“Uh, are you okay?” Kageyama asks, his eyebrow raised and confused by your current state
“I’m fine,” you answer. But when you start sniffing, he realizes that you were crying
He pauses, not knowing what to do.
After a minute of silence, you feel a presence sit next to you
A cough makes you jump a little
“Oh, s-sorry,” Kageyama mutters, looking over at your hunched figure.
“No, your good,” you say, quietly.
You clear your throat, filling the awkward silence that follows your words.
“Actually, I failed my Chem test. So…I guess, that’s why I’m feeling a bit down.”
“Huh,” he starts. “Do you like Chem?”
“Well, no.”
“Then, why take it?”
“Because, all the top students who took Biology took Chem the next year. I guess I wanted to fit in.”
When did this turn into a therapy session
“That’s interesting, considering the fact that you joined this club for the opposite reason, if i remember correctly?”
It’s true. None of your class friends were associated with the schools vb club, they weren’t interested in the “jock” stuff and only focused on academics
you, on the other hand, had some interest in volleyball and joined on a whim
that’s where you met the best people in your life, your best friends
“Yeah…” you respond. It leaves you thinking about certain things.
Kageyama huffs, getting up.
“Can you help me with some sets, before the others arrive?” He changes the subject, hoping to clear your mind.
“Sure.” You nod, getting up and wiping tears from your face.
“Oh, wait.” Kageyama rushes to his bag and pulls out some tissues. “Here.”
Your cheeks turn pink from embarrassment. “Thank you.”
“N-no problem,” he replies awkwardly.
And with that, you begin tossing the balls for him
He would usually ask Hinata to do this and would always complain at how Hinata’s throwing them
But he didn’t complain once with you
Even when you’d throw the ball under the net
You’d apologize and he’d wave his hand off, saying that it’s okay.
He probably assumed that you were having fun bc anything volleyball = fun
and honestly, it was a little fun
fun and satisfying to see how much Kageyama’s improved
And it got you to smile here and there
He silently celebrates when he finally sees you smile
That’s when other club members finally hop into the room
And you quickly turn into your usual “manager mode”, getting to work
Thanks to Kageyama, you feel more at ease
Tumblr media
It just happens to be one of those days
You had a lot on your plate
So much that you felt no motivation to complete your responsibilities
But the day must go on
After a long round of volleyball practice after school, it was finally time for a break
Everyone walks out of the gym to grab a small snack from the vending machine or converse with friends
Sakusa, on the other hand, remains on the court alone, doing some serves
Which leaves you two left in the gym
But no one seemed to notice as you both went along with your businesses
Feeling exhausted both physically and emotionally, you sit on the bleachers, leaning your back as you face at the walls, with a faraway look on your face
Thinking Sakusa wouldn’t notice your unusually apathetic state, since he’s always hyper-focused during practice, it surprises you when he walks over to you, concern filling his eyes
“You, ok?” Sakusa places a hand into his jacket pocket, the other hand was attached to a volleyball that was held against his hip
The voice startles you for a second, and reality hits you
“I don’t really know,” you say truthfully, sighing.
Sakusa hums, thinking
He slips off his jacket and places it neatly folded into his duffel.
“Be right back,” he mutters loud enough for you to hear, before walking away
You raise an eyebrow watching his back as he walks out the door
Ok then…
You weren’t very surprised by his odd behavior because that’s just how he is
After a couple minutes and few echoes of laughter from outside, he returns with a bottle of water, most likely from the vending machine
“Here.”
You look at the bottle and then back up at him. “Oh, need me to open it?” You take it, before he could answer, finding it easy to pop the lid.
“No, its yours.” He places his hands into his pockets as he takes a seat next to you. “I have my own right here.”
“Oh.” You look down at the bottle. “Thank you, Sakusa-kun.”
You take a huge gulp.
“If you were that thirsty, you should’ve brought your own jug,” he says bluntly.
“You’ve got a point.” He’s got a point.
He pauses for a sec. “Anyway, are you feeling a little better?” His eyes drift over to you.
In a way, his actions are really thoughtful
Simply just handing you something to drink, even though he doesn’t know the reason why you’re feeling down
He was never one to be good at consoling a friend with their words
But little acts of care like these
“Well, definitely not thirsty anymore if that’s what you’re asking,” you say, chuckling.
“Hmm, I guess that is an improvement,” he smirks.
He feels a bit more at ease seeing your face light up.
Ooh, this is a new side of Sakusa. It’s interesting to see.
The fact that he stopped his practice, the hard-working Sakusa, just to give you some company was a shock.
If there’s one thing that everyone knows about Sakusa is that he hates being interrupted during practice
Once he starts something, he intends to complete the task, even if it’s time for a break
Yet, here he is, relaxing on the bleachers with you, chatting abt mundane things
I could use a break, anyway, is what he thinks in his head when he starts to relax.
In truth, he doesn’t mind having a chat with you
And seeing his manager/friend in low spirits puts a bad feeling in his stomach
Being the competitive, determined person he is, Sakusa will make sure that your mood is increased by at least 70% before the day is over.

When he pulls the “not saying ‘ily’ back” prank pt.3
Tumblr media
but with a twist…
—image reads: “i love you, i love you, don’t cry”
warnings/notes: requested, TIMESKIP!IWAIZUMI (occupation reveal), cursing, angst (again lol), comfort, fluff, married relationships, suggestive, not proofread (apologies), long reading (GLHF)
part 1, part 2
Kuroo, Iwaizumi || reader
♢ Kuroo ☄. *. ⋆
being the little scheming fool he is, you’ve gotten used to all the small pranks he pulls on you
small pranks like: once, he feigned a panicked expression when you asked him if he left the stove on at home
or he’d pretend to accidentally drop the new vase you brought
sometimes would make a fake crackling noises during a phone call (however it worked like twice and then u stopped falling for it)
it’s not you mind it, though, because you get to have a reason to smack that constant devilish smirk off his lips
kuroo never crosses the line with them
but he kinda sorta did one time
he smacks himself every time he’d think about it
bc he remembers the tears brought into your eyes when he looked up from his magazine, immediate regret filling his heart
it was a regular weekend; you had planned to go out with your friends
on your way out the door after giving Kuroo a kiss on the cheek, you send your husband some parting words
“ ‘Kay, Testu, I’m off. See you,” you say, slipping your heels into your shoes. “Love you.”
“. . .” he remains quiet as he lazily sits on the couch, shuffling through a weekly magazine.
his eyes r in the book, but in his mind, he’s having a laugh.
oh, y/n’s gonna be so caught off guard lol
he thinks this little prank will make you laugh, too but…
you knock on the wall beside you to grab his attention. “Uh, babe?”
he doesn’t look back up, simply nodding.
“Alrighty, bye.”
is he still mad? you wonder, recalling the previous days’ events.
you both had gone into a little argument the day before
abt his sleep schedule since he’s been staying up finishing his projects for work
but after some time, you resolved it by talking it out and having a cuddle session
at least you thought you thought you did.
why is he acting nonchalant all of a sudden? you wonder
with your shoes on, you stood next to the door, wondering if you should still go on your outing with this horrible feeling in your gut
or maybe…he probably doesn’t love me anymore, an irrational thought enters your mind
Kuroo notices you still standing next to the door. “Aren’t you going to…”
his voice falters when he notices a tear streaming down your cheek
you want to ask him if everything’s okay, but you can’t form the words for some reason
instead, a tear forms in your eyes, with a knot in your throat
he drops his magazine and stands up to quickly rush over to you
the former middle blocker pulls you close to his chest.
you don’t pull away, just weeping softly into his shirt
“why’re you crying, huh? what’s wrong?” the oblivious man asks tenderly. His cheek rests on top of your head.
“are you still mad at me?” you whisper into his chest.
“For what? for yesterday?” he asks softly. “no, i’m not mad,” he confirms, before hugging you tightly again.
“oh,” you wipe your eyes with the back of your hand.
“sorry, dove,” he uses his sweet nickname for you. “i love you, i love you, please don’t cry,” he mumbles hearing you sniff, and placing a kiss on your forehead.
he truly does, and it shows with how he’s holding you, cherishing you, and kissing you
“i’ll let you off to your friends now,” he says, once you’ve calmed in his arms.
“okay,” you giggle. “i’ll be be back quickly, babe.”
still in his arms, you tilt your head as he leans down to give you one last kiss.
“okay.” he smiles, but his hold doesn’t leave you, arms still wrapped around your waist.
“Testu,” you say his name, wondering when he’s gonna let go.
he hums, now his head laid on your shoulder.
“Testu, i gotta go!” you chuckle.
“fine, fine.” his words make it seem as if he’s finally going to release you
however he just presses his lips into the corner of your neck, and whispers in your ear
“we can continue this when you come back, yeah?”
you feel your cheeks warm from his comment and you’re finally able to pull away
“Mkay, g-gotta go!” you stutter, rushing out of the house.
he smirks, watching you tumble on your way out.
god, i love you. in his head he’s just repeating the same mantra
and making a promise to not make you cry like that again
♢ Iwaizumi ☄. *. ⋆
your partner, iwaizumi hajime, was in the work-out room doing some lifts when you popped your head in
“hey, hun! want me to bring you some water?” you ask your busy trainer husband
iwaizumi isn’t aware that he’s holding a stern expression on his face (especially when he’s working out)
aka a resting bitch face
so sometimes you can’t tell if he’s genuinely upset or if he’s just focusing really hard
especially these days, he’s been working a lot from doing his own training to meeting up with his players and training them
he would immediately arrive home to eat, chat a little, and go straight to sleep early
most of the time, too early that he’d leave you in the living room to finish off the show you were both watching
don’t get him wrong, he’s been feeling guilty about it….
“i’m fine. i still got some water with me,” he answers a bit tiredly, and turns his head slightly, back facing you
“Okay, then. Lemme know what ya need. Love you,” you say before walking off
but before walking off, you wait to give him some time to reply
but he doesn’t which disappoints you
iwaizumi grabs his water and takes a huge gulp from it, then continues with his lifting
what you don’t realize is that he meant to say “i love you” back but as he was drinking, a thought came to his head
what if i tease y/n a little? he wonders, thinking that maybe that will liven the mood a little
so he decided to keep quiet and let you saunter back in your room
you only frown at his seemingly indifferent nature as you make your way back to your shared bedroom to fold some laundry, deep in thought
you couldn’t help but think as you folded your husband sweater: is he not interested in me anymore?
you continued to organize the mix of tangled fabric thinking that it will perhaps organize your outrageous thoughts and emotions
but it doesn’t. in fact, it just makes you wallow in them.
so after clearing the basket of clean clothes, you lay on the bed to rest
perhaps sleeping will calm you down?
nope.
you can’t sleep.
instead tears roll down your cheeks, surprising you
why am i crying? you swipe an area beneath your eye and stare at the wetness on your finger in disbelief
nonetheless, tears continue to fall and you start to silently sob, realization hitting you
you just miss him.
“honey?” the familiar smooth baritone of a voice calls from behind you.
iwaizumi had expected you to retaliate so he waited and waited for you to stomp back into the room and demand an “ily” back
but your presence never made its way back so he comes to you instead
you lightly gasp, and shut your eyes, pretending to sleep so he won’t notice you crying.
he doesn’t need to know. he’s already been tired out enough. no need to add to it.
you feel the warmth of a presence make its way in front of you, sitting close to the bed.
“you’re asleep?” the soft voice says.
a thumb grazes your cheek.
you almost curse when you realize you didn’t finish drying your tears
“shit. were you crying?” your husband’s voice breaks.
you unconsciously lift your lids, wanting to see him
his face was near yours, eyes widening when yours open.
“hajime,” you reach out to him, and he has you in his arms, dipping himself into the bed to lay with you.
before you could say anything, he apologizes
the redness in your eyes breaking his heart
“i’m sorry,” he starts, “i love you, i love you, please don’t cry.”
he doesn’t even know where to start
he should’ve thought how you’ve felt this whole time
you spend the rest of the time, sharing words that should’ve been exchanged earlier
and it’s what truly improved the atmosphere of the house
he gives you a kiss, placing his lips sweetly on yours. “i love you,” he says again.
you reciprocate his actions and words.
“cmon, let’s cuddle,” he mumbles, rubbing his nose on your neck.
a resounding chuckle leaves your chest
“Haji,” you say, looking at his gazing lovey-dovey eyes. “You’re still sweaty.”
he suddenly remembers that he’s supposed to shower a while ago after exercising
“oh, right.” your husband laughs. “okay, i’ll be back.”
iwaizumi slips out of bed muttering “i’ll be really quick” as if he’s going grocery shopping or something.
as he reaches the door, he turns around, a hand on the doorframe and smirking
“unless…you wanna join?”
how could you resist?
you nod and he’s quick to your feet, lifting you from the bed bridal style just like the day he wedded you
from then on, he’s always attentive towards you and your feelings and you to his
because you’re his # 1 priority
always have and always will be.

calling you ma’am
warnings: none
Yamaguchi, Ennoshita, Goshiki, Akaashi || fem!reader
Tumblr media
“excuse me, ma’am?”
As you walk around the pots and pans section of the department store, a cute freckled-faced guy approaches you
You turn to his voice, surprised
His forest green hair matched his dark orbs
He wore a white and red striped long sleeve with a collar around its neck
“Sorry! Uh, do you work here?” he clicks his phone off as if he had just been using it, placing it into his back pocket
Somehow you found it extremely difficult to form words
He was very cute which probably is the reason
but also, he thought you worked here?!
Not that there was anything wrong with working at a department store
it’s just…did you choose the wrong outfit?
what made him think you were on shift?
You merely, shook your head, with a small “no” escaping your mouth.
He smiles, “no worries! Take care, ma’am.” He waves you goodbye and you smile back, too shy to wave at him.
But little do you know he’s scurrying off to the fragrance section to meet his blonde friend Tsukki who had been consoling him through text .
“You said she works here!” Yamaguchi glares at his best friend, madly blushing.
“You said she was cute and I wanted to help? Man, that usually how I get their numbers. Did you at least ask for her number?”
“How could I?!?! I just asked her if she works here, ahhhh,” Yamaguchi puts his face in his hands, embarassed.
Tumblr media
“Hi, I can take the next order,” the cute barista calls out to you
Every Monday, you would visit this cafe in the mornings for your coffee.
Totally not because one of the workers is cute
You walk up, ready to make your order
The familiar barista’s large, shining eyes aren’t hard to miss, even with his black cap—which all the baristas wore—casting a shadow over them
His name-tag attached to his beige apron with the label “Ennoshita Chikara” is slightly angled as if he’d been in a rush to stick it on
“Hi,” he greets again, smiling. Of course, it’s the “corporate” type of smile.
Because imagine if you could see a genuine smile from him one day.
wait what, you snap yourself from your thoughts.
“Hi—” you start but he cuts you off
“The usual, ma’am?” He smirks which catches you off guard.
“Y-yeah.” A small smile forms on your lips.
“A medium hot Caramel latte,” he repeats the words you say to him every Monday morning just to make sure.
But he remembers for sure
Because the next thing you see him do just makes your heart flutter…
He takes one of the medium sized cups and labeling it with your name, which is the first time he’s done without asking for it
“And here’s your receipt,” he hands to you the small film of paper like always with a smile.
Suddenly, you felt like the smile had more meaning to it than it did before and it might be because this time he held eye contact much longer
“Thank you.” You smile back and wait for your order.
After a few minutes, you hear your order and name being called out by another worker.
As you grabbed it from the counter you notice that next to your name was a heart, something that’s also new.
Leaving the cafe, you chuckle to yourself, thinking how the handsome barista still calls you “ma’am” even though he’s very familiar with your name.
Tumblr media
You were on your way to a nearby foodcourt on the college campus when you notice a guy looking down on his phone and back up
His eyes scanning the environment around him
He seemed a bit frustrated as he ran a hand through his black disheveled hair
You quickly look away when he turns to look at you, noticing your attention
He makes his way toward you and you start coming up with excuses in your head as to why you were staring
I was looking at the guy behind you? I don’t have my glasses! I must’ve lost my contacts, yeah! That’s—
“Excuse me, ma’am?” You hear a voice interrupt your thoughts.
The same guy is now a couple inches away from you.
You turn your head to him, waiting for him to elaborate.
“Could you help me figure out where the food court is? My friends told me that they were at the Dunkin' in the food court but their phones died. Those..." he mumbles at the end but you couldn't quite catch his words.
"Actually," you place your hands in your pockets, "I'm on my way there!" You point towards the direction of the huge glass building across the road. "Why don't I walk you there?"
His eyes light up
"That would be really nice. Thank you, ma'am." He bows formally as a gesture of appreciation.
As you both go on your way, he finally asks for your name and he told you yours.
He was quite awkward, but you found it cute in a way.
Once you both finally make it to your destination, a group of guys start calling him. "Hey! 'Tomu!"
"Ha! Found 'em. Thanks, again, ma'am--oops I mean [y/n]." He smiles shyly, rubbing the back of his head.
"Yeah, it's no problem!" You smile, before turning around. "See you around campus, Goshiki."
"See ya!" You hear a smile in his voice
Tumblr media
Feeling a little anxious since this is your first time being alone at the movie theater
What made you more nervous is the cute guy standing at the end of the row of chairs staring at his ticket and the seating
When is he gonna sit down? you wonder
Your curiosity vanishes when he approaches you, one hand holding a box of popcorn and snacks.
"Um, ma'am?" he looks at your seat number, then at the small paper in his hand. "Are you in the right seat?" He adjusts his thick black frames.
Oh, no
You read his expression, grabbing your ticket to double-check.
And to your misery, you had read the seating wrong.
"I'm so sorry. I thought this was row F. That was my miscalculation."
He shakes his head. "It's fine, we all make mistakes. It happens."
You hurriedly take your items and make your way to the right seat, feeling a bit embarrassed.
As you take a seat, you see another guy walking to the dude you just made an exchange with.
He had white, silver hair with black highlights that moved with every step.
"Akaashi!" He calls to him, holding two large drinks in his hand.
You see the cute guy with black curly hair put a finger to his lips, telling his friend to keep it down as the movie is about to start.
All your previous thoughts vanished as you place your full attention on the movie.
Although, you'd hear the owl-haired guy make small noises here and there as a reaction to scenes from the film
Akaashi would make him quiet down by saying "Bokuto-san!" when he gets a little too loud with his cackling.
Once the movie ended, you got up, ready to leave.
But the guy who had spoken with you, turned around to get your attention, making you pause.
"Ma'am? Thanks, again." He gets up, wiping his glasses, before putting it back on.
Bokuto turns around, curiously to see who Akaashi's talking to.
"No, no. I'm sorry, again for that." You apologize again.
"Really, no need for the apology." He shakes his head, giving a reassuring smile. He gathers their box of trash, handing bokuto the drinks.
"Well, it was nice to meet, you. We'll be leaving." And with one last smile he walks away, with his pal tailing him.
"Oho, Akaashi-kun!" Bokuto slaps his friend's shoulder as encouragement, making Akaashi turn to him.
From a distance, you could see his cheeks and ears turn pink.

Sunkissed
Tumblr media
requested. beach dates! descriptions of hot haikyuu men's beach bodies be aware, bring some ice to cool down probably lol. Daichi and reader enjoy bbq (sorry, anti-meat eaters). Oikawa wears his alien goggles.
[ reader x ] : oikawa. kuroo. akaashi. daichi
Tumblr media
✺ oikawa
beach dates are always fun w/ this man <33
your excited bf wakes up early in the morning to prepare
brings all the things you need including his alien-shaped goggles
a great excuse to admire his abs under the golden sun
lots of swimming and hanging out in the cool water <3
“Like what you see, gorgeous?” he says with a smirk when you’re admiring his toned chest. His eyes are also scan over you, admiring his lover.
Then, you notice the dorky alien goggles around his neck and the image tickles you.
“Uh huh,” you say, chuckling. “Those goggles really add to your charm.”
“Heh, you think so?” He playfully splashes a bit of water toward you when your approaching the ocean waves. You’re hopping straight into the water as he drags you in.
Oikawa doesn’t forget his waterproof camera and takes a lot of photos of you (mostly candid) which he will delightfully keep in his wallet or phone lockscreen.
“Wanna race?” he offers just to show off his amazing swimming skills. Even if he won the race, you couldn’t be mad bc of how hot it was seeing the speed of his strokes. You swore he could’ve been a mermaid in his past life
“Haha! I winnn!” he declares, throwing his fist in the air after reaching the goal-point. It was hilarious to see his alien goggles still tightly worn around his eyes.
You roll your eyes before your boyfriend grabs your waist from under the water, making you shriek and pulls you closer, eyes begging for something. "Do I get a prize?" he snickers. He doesn't have to ask twice.
You grab the sides of his head, startling the man, before smashing your lips against his. Oikawa pulls away, surprised, before tugging his alien goggles down and bringing you in a deeper kiss. He didn't care about moving his wet, messy bangs out of the way but neither did you as your legs wrap around his waist beneath the ocean surface.
✺ kuroo
asks you to 'do his sunscreen for him' even though he knows he's well capable of doing it himself
jus loves feeling your hands on his skin and the way you squeeze his shoulders as a way of telling him you're done
'thank you' kisses for doing it
rubbing shapes on his skin as he lays on his stomach, suntanning
building small sand castles
chasing each other on the sand !!
You may have "accidentally" poked one of his 'sand towers', making it crumble more than you intended.
Kuroo's eyes flash towards you and it feels like that moment when a cat gives you its 'attack eyes'.
You scatter backwards and he gets up, raking a hand over his hair.
"You're so gonna pay for that." Kuroo's voice darkens and you squeal, watching him kick his heel against the sand, ready to pounce. Now, you're chasing each other on the sand. He finally catches you, arms lifting you up and walking towards the shoreline. Without warning, he dives into the water.
"Tetsu!!' you yelp, feeling the cold liquid stun your sunkissed skin. He turns around with a grin on his lips. Not another word leaves your mouth as you fall back and stare at his wet hair, water trickling down his heaving chest. Of course, it boosts his ego when you're caught ogling him.
"Eyes up here, angel." He chuckles as your face turns red from embarrassment. Once again, Kuroo dives underwater, swimming towards you. He resurfaces with his face inches away from yours. His once spiky hair is now flattened from being dipped in water.
“Haha, babe, your hair—.” You laugh but it soon cuts off with Kuroo’s lips on yours. The kiss breaks off earlier than intended as he tries to catch his breath.
“Hm,” he chuckles breathlessly. “Stop talking about my hair and kiss me. Don’t forget, baby, you still owe me.”
✺ akaashi
always comforting + takes care of you well
kissing the back of your neck while applying sunscreen has become a habit
surprising you with nice refreshing ice cream that he bought from the vendor across the street
lying on your back against his chest while he's reading a magazine
one of his hands is placed over your heart, feeling the soft beats
he guessed that you probably fell asleep on him as he starts to hear you snooze
“Sweetheart,” your boyfriend whispers gently, but you continue to sleep.
Meanwhile, the blazing sun scatters over the pearly sands. It's a good thing Akaashi remembered to bring your beach umbrella to provide some shade as you lay on a large, soft towel. However, the shadow had moved above your face. Akaashi notices and places a hand over your face to block the sun from your eyes.
"Keiji," you murmur your boyfriend's name. He hums a response, grabbing your hand and placing his lips on the back of it.
"Wanna swim?" you suggest, voice laced with sleep.
He chuckles, moving straying hairs away from your face. “You wanna go for a swim?” You nod.
Akaashi shifts his shades over his bangs. "Okay, let's go." He takes a sip of his cold soda before standing up. “Come here, love.” Arms circle around your waist and you naturally cling onto him. He knew you were still feeling a bit tired from the small nap, although, you also wanted to take the opportunity to dip yourself into the cool sea before the sun goes down.
“Too cold?” he asks when he feels you slightly shiver from contact with the water. You were still in his arms, leaning your head against his neck.
“Nope S’alright,” you say, softly. Eventually, the coldness becomes comforting and it was all too comfortable because soon enough, your eyes start to droop once again, being swayed between waves while your lover holds you close, humming.
Akaashi seems to notice. “Sleepyhead,” he teases, placing a peck on your forehead.
“I’m not sleeping,” you murmur before dropping under the water to freshen yourself. He laughs, tilting his head back. The colden liquid definitely revitalized your senses as you felt the playful urge to splash water to your boyfriend.
“Huh, so you wanna play?” he starts with a warning tone which makes you giggle. “You started this.” You begin swimming away as he chases after you in the ocean. He definitely could out-swim you but decides to move at a slower pace, giving you some time before he has his arms around you again.
✺ daichi
you’re the cheesy couple wearing matching bathing suits
would bring an entire cooler filled with ice and drinks
plus a small grill to cook some meat while you go for a dip in the ocean
you’d look over to admire the view: dark sunglasses on, thongs between his fingers as he flips the meat, toned chest glowing from the lotion he applied earlier
he’s smiling when your eyes meet
“Sure you don’t wanna swim, babe?” you ask, unraveling the towel from your hips. A faint blush appears on his cheeks as you do so. It’s a good thing his frames were too dark to notice where his eyes were, he thought. Your legs were now exposed, the warm sun tickling your skin, itching to dip itself into the cool ocean.
He clears his throat, making it more obvious that he was being enchanted by you. “I-it’s okay, love. I’ll join you after.” He resumes flipping the meat before opening a container from your picnic basket.
“Alright, suit yourself,” you giggle before jogging into the ocean. Daichi’s eyes return to you, taking in the scene before him, your curves, your sunkissed skin, the way your hair ruffles in the wind. Then, he’s chuckling to himself as he pops a grape into his mouth.
You’re having a nice time basking in the sun while your body simultaneously swishes around the water. From time to time, you’d look over to watch your lover on the grill, sometimes catching his eyes on you. Daichi would send a wave or lift his brows, a curve shown on his lips. Even from a distance, you could see his toned arms bulge with each movement of muscle.
At some point, he signals, letting you know the bbq is done. The aroma of bbq mixed with burnt charcoal fills the air as you approach back to the shady area where Daichi sits.
“I’m all wet,” you warn Daichi when he pulls your body down to his. In his hand was a pair of chopsticks holding a piece of meat between them. A hand cups under it as he gestures you to try his concoction.
“S’okay. Try this, baby.” His arms raise from both of your sides as you sit against his chest. Daichi didn’t mind that his chest and his trunks are dripping from your soaked form. He was going to swim, too, anyway.
You part your lips and take the piece of meat between your teeth. It was still quite warm. The nice crunchy texture and flavors on your tongue cause a happy noise to escape from your throat. “Mm! That’s really good, honey.” His chest fills with pride, watching you. Just seeing you this happy makes him giddy.
“Thanks—Mm!” You take one piece and turn slightly backwards to feed him while he spoke. His eyes seem to light up from the taste. “Wow, you’re right.” You spend the next moments together enjoying lunch on the beach, enjoying the scenery.
Daichi didn’t mind that his chest and his trunks are now dripping from your soaked form. He was going to swim, too, anyway.

Haikyuu x Extrovert!reader
requested, extroverted reader, dating fluff, kind of went on with kita's bc Shinsuke Kita is near and dear to my heart recently
[ reader x ] : tsukishima. bokuto. kita
Tumblr media
Tsukishima
this is one of the situations where the extrovert adopts the introvert
you found him scary at first with his height being so tall and his mean resting face
but when you noticed the artist of the music he listened to was also a favorite of yours, you had to approach him
and he’s startled at first, because you never really spoke to him before (except for that time you asked him to reach for your eraser that fell in front of his seat).
so then, now you go to school, glad to have found someone with good music taste, looking forward to having chats about the new album and your favorite tracks
before you know it, you’re both catching feelings for each other
and he surprises you with tickets to the concert which you both thoroughly enjoyed
it wasn’t until the end of the concert, the ride home, when you finally ask “So, was it a date?”
“Of course it was.” He confirms.
No one would’ve guessed that you’d end up together
however, if anyone messed with one of you, the other would definitely fight back
Tsukki gets a little possessive when a random stranger walks up to you and starts flirting
practically gives them the death stare while hugging from behind you
but turns out, they weren't flirting nor a random stranger. They were just a childhood friend of yours lol
you're always telling him to 'be nice' or 'play nice' to people you meet
and he listens to you always ofc you got him wrapped around your finger
Tumblr media
Bokuto
two very energetic energies
so ppl weren’t surprised when they found out you two were dating
in fact, it happened very fast (although, Bokuto was very shy of you bc of how pretty you were)
he kept asking Akaashi to ask you abt stuff like “what's your favorite color?” “what’s your type?”
to the point where you thought Akaashi was the one with the crush 💀
but then Akaashi’s had enough of his pestering and ends up blurting out “Bokuto wants to know.” and Bokuto’s whining his best friend’s name for exposing him
but Akaashi knows Bokuto will thank him later for it
bc now you’re walking with hands held together, sharing lunches, and matching bracelets
best believe your showing off your bf’s athletic skills to every person you meet
Bokuto's huffing with pride like ‘yes i am he. i am the boyfriend.’ with his arm wrapped around yoh
you both light up every room you walk into
however, when you fight, it's like the end of the world; it's a good thing your friends are always there to help y'all lol
not that you both need much help bc somehow you can't stay mad at each other for too long
the moment he sees you, a bright smile adorns his face while you leap into his arms
loves to spin you in the air a lot lmao
also complimenting each other is a daily thing
literal relationship goals
Tumblr media
Kita
admired you from afar at first
you were so bubbly and made friends everywhere you went
except for Kita who you secretly admired (bc gosh, he was a fine man. It was hard for you to approach him at first.)
so Kita’s wondering what he might’ve done to see you swivel around when you noticed him walking toward your direction in the hallway,
or the time you spun your head away during a volleyball match when he catches you staring
Kita just wants to be friends aw 🥺
he thinks you dislike him until you march up after a successful game, the adrenaline of victory and pride for your school’s team rushing through you, and finally confess (well, not really but Kita was clever enough to understand the situation)
blubbering like "congrats Kita-san! I knew you guys could do it! I always believed since you were the captain. Andyou'rejustsocoolandgoodlookingandathleticandgoodateverything" and so on
The rest of his teammates are quietly snickering and patting him on the back, but he's stagnant, in place, bewildered by your sudden interaction and compliments.
that’s when he realizes that maybe he's thought of you wrongly this whole time
definitely feels guilty about judging you that way before even getting a chance to properly speak to you
He compliments you back and pink dust forms on your cheeks.
"Are you taken by any chance?" you immediately regret the words once they left your mouth.
"No, no. I'm not. You?" When you shake your head, he smiles and that's how you both started dating
now he feels a sense of pride when you march into a room calling his name first, eyes going to him first
despite being the social butterfly you are, you spend most of your time by his side
very different from how you first interacted and he's so glad at how it all turned out
taglist 。⋆。˚ ʚïɞ ˚。⋆。

Ladies and Gentlemen, ✨them✨
requested || enemies to lovers trope with Oikawa, ushijima x y/n has a fanclub
oikawa, ushijima
Tumblr media
oikawa 👑✨
being captain of the school’s volleyball team is only a plus to his good looks and charm
but what’s even more attractive is his s/o: you (who seems to be great at anything; sports, education, art)
you two together are a FORCE to be reckoned with ✨
it might be because you first started off as rivals in the beginning of high school
Oikawa always being the star and center of attention, finally found his rival when you entered the picture
“Hey, pretty thing. What’s your name?” is what he first said, even though knew the answer, his hand reaching out to help you up…
…right after “accidentally” tossing a ball at you during P.E.
you grumbled a response. “Oikawa-kun, you better watch your head,” you threatened.
it bothered Oikawa that everyone easily fell for his charms except you
so he kept finding a way to get your attention
he thinks that once he gets you to fall for his charms, he would claim “victory” against you
He leaned against your desk, showing off his final test grades.
“Nice one, Oikawa-kun,” you say, staring at the paper in front of you. You could’ve said ‘nice try’ or ‘not bad’ just to spite him, but maybe if you tried to be nice to him once, he’d finally leave you alone. He flips his hair, before bending down to your seat.
“It’s okay, y/n. Don’t be too upset. Not everyone can get high scores. If you need a tutor,” he points to himself, “I’m right here.” You felt a strong urge to wipe that smug look from his face so you smile and slip out your test grades, slapping the paper on the desk. Yours exceeded his. And you could see the grin on his face falter, like it always does when he realizes he’s lost the battle.
“You should come watch me play, y/n. You know, I’m the captain of the volleyball team,” he once asked because that was one area he was confident with. Wanting to know the hype behind this Volleyball captain, you decided to go.
That was probably the reason you started dating.
You saw the passion he had when he played volleyball. The fire in his eyes whenever he watches the ball fly precisely in the air.
Something about it inspired you.
So when you finally complimented him on it, he suddenly felt an unfamiliar emotion in his chest and warmth in his cheeks. The setter who is usually smooth-talking, found himself flustered for the first time.
From then, he’d seek ways to make you compliment him again. You could say that you charmed him instead. And even after you started dating, there is still a subtle rivalry. Like when you’re racing each other during a mile run, or reaching the school’s cafe first, even on test grades. Students would be running on the track like: “there they go again”.
Some would call it a special type of love language between you two. One minute you’re challenging each other, and the next you’re hugging and giggling in each other’s arms. Usually you win, but one thing you could never win against him in is volleyball. But that’s fine cuz you won each other’s hearts at the end.
Tumblr media
ushijima 👑✨
talk about a power couple ✨
the thing is, Ushijima isn’t one who is affectionate and the best at showing emotion
so people assumed he was single at first
the news of you two dating spread throughout the school after what happened when he waited near the lockers for you after school.
a girl approached him with a letter in her hand, her cheeks flushed and eyes gazing down at her shoes.
you made it in time to see the girl stutter in her words as she hands the closed envelope to him.
“Toshi,” you say the nickname you had for him loud and clear. And Ushijima turns around with a panicked look on his face.
The girl jumps hearing your voice.
“Have you been waiting long?” you lean up and place a kiss on his cheek, making the girl’s jaw drop.
Your boyfriend mumbles a no, feeling more relaxed by your presence. You wondered if the girl was bothering him. He was not the best at receiving compliments, or much less confessions. You knew this based on your experience.
Her eyes flicker between you both, mouth still agape. “Wait. You two are dating? You two?!” You turn to the girl as if you’ve just noticed her presence. She was smiling which surprises you.
Before you could answer, Ushijima takes your hand in his and responds. “Yes. We are.” Your eyes flicker back to him in awe.
“Oh!” the girl places a hand on her chest, bending over, feeling relief. “Finally!”
“Wait what,” you deadpan. Ushijima still clutches your hand, standing next to you.
“I’m glad it was you, y/n.” The girl smiles again. Why is she smiling? Shouldn’t she be heartbroken? Crushed?
“What’s that supposed to mean?” You squeeze Ushijima’s hand a little tight, making him cough into his other hand and you loosen your hold.
“Oh! Don’t you know people have been shipping you guys? There’s a fanclub for it!” The girl takes out a card from the envelope she was holding. “Here’s our socials!”
Ushijima remains silent, checking his watch as if he’s getting bored.
“What?!” you exclaim. “Why? How? When?”
“I know you have a lot of questions, y/n. We’ll answer them all if you join our groupchat. Okay, bye!” she squeaks before leaving you both in the empty hallway.
You turn to Ushijima who yawns. “Ready to go, y/n?” he asks mid-yawn.
“Toshi, did you not hear what she just said?” you ask your boyfriend.
“Oh, I already knew.” He leans against the lockers.
“You knew?!” Unbelievable.
“Tendou told me about them, but I just ignored them.”
“And Tendou knew as well?!”
“He claims to be an active member of the club,” Ushijima sighs, shaking his head in disapproval.
“Tendou?!” your head spins from the amount of crazy information being thrown at you. “Why didn’t you tell me any of this?”
“Well,” he starts, taking both of your hands and intertwining your fingers. “I wanted us to find our way together. Without any outside help.”
His words remove any anger brewing inside you and you bring his fingers to your lips to kiss them.
Ushijima has always been a rational type of guy. He means every word he says, so it’s easy to trust him. “Alright, Toshi,” you say, taking his hands and striding down the halls. “We’re gonna go have a talk with Tendou.”
