Synopsis: You are Nishinoya's older sister, the fearless, confident, and reliable manager... except when faced with your feelings with the team ace. As both of your high school years are going to be coming to a close, will one of you be able to say something about how you feel? Who will overcome their nerves first?
Warnings: reader has she/her pronouns, reader is described as being short because she's nishinoya's sister, language, karasuno being chaotic, season 4 spoilers, tooth-rotting fluff.
Author's Note: My old Asahi fic, as promised. This one is a bit longer and used to be on my old wattpad account some time ago. Asahi is one of my favorite hq characters, literally my baby. This one is pure fluff, and is a bit on the longer side. Also, this fic takes place during the events of season 4 so there are some spoilers in that sense, but nothing too major. Enjoy lovelies <3

___________________________________________________________
They did it. In your two years of being a manager for the Karasuno boys volleyball team, you probably would have never thought that the boys would beat Shiratorizawa, much less make it to nationals. And yet, even as you stared out at the Tokyo sky on the way to the inn, even as Asahi landed that last spike to push them through to the 2nd round, you still felt that little voice whisper in your head in complete awe and disbelief. 
They did it.  
After the game, the Karasuno gang packed up and headed back for the inn. Most of them took a nap or stared tiredly out the window. They were all exhausted from the thrill of their first game, and they should be. They fought hard and restlessly. The boys showed everyone watching in the stands today that they didn’t come here on some fluke, they came here because they are going to win. 
That’s right. The entire damn tournament. 
Takeda shouted from the front, breaking you from your thoughts. “We’re here everyone!” Hinata immediately jumped up from his seat and barreled full speed toward the front. Kageyama chased after him not much longer (probably because Hinata woke him up when he started running). You chuckled at the duo and slowly got up from your own seat in the front. As everyone else piled off you began making your way toward the back. You kind of made it your own job to wake anyone up once you’ve reached the destination on road trips. 
You spotted Tanaka and Yuu dozing a few seats back. You silently made your way over to them, and started to shake Tanaka. 
“Tanakaaaa, wake uuuup,” you sang while shaking his shoulder. He lazily opened his eyes and let out a yawn. You then reached over to poke at Yuu’s back which was turned to you as he wrapped himself around his duffel bag. “Come on Yuu.” You didn’t have to try that hard with Yuu. After all, you woke him up for school every day. 
As you leaned back, Tanaka stretched his arms above his head and asked, “(Y/N)? Are we here?” You gave him a nod and moved out of the way for him to get up. Yuu was glaring at you from behind his seat. 
“What’s wrong Yuu?” you asked, smirking. “Mad cause I woke you up?”  
“I was having a good dreaaammm,” he whines. 
“Whatever, just get your lazy ass up and let's head inside,” Tanaka drawls as he slaps Yuu upside the head. 
“My lazy ass?” Yuu retorts. Yuu grabbed his duffel bag, and then returned a smack upside Tanaka’s head as they walked toward the front of the bus. “You were sleeping too!” Here they go again… 
“Boys!” you yelled at them. They stopped. “Just get off the bus!” The libero and the wing spiker left without saying another word. 
You sighed while shaking your head. You considered this your own role as a manager sometimes. Kiyoko was more of the quiet one that did her job well, Yachi was the newbie still getting used to the reins, and you were the one that kept the boy’s attitudes in check (yes, even Daichi sometimes). 
You still remember back when you were about halfway through your first year as a manager. You were a second-year at the time. There was a day when the boys were so rowdy that not even the old Coach Ukai could calm them down. You must had been on your period or something that day, because you got so mad at them. All of a sudden, you had started scolding them for their attitudes and lack of respect, telling them that they needed to represent Karasuno High School the right way. It scared the team a bit. Their tiny manager that was practically a foot shorter than them was putting them in line and they actually listened. And so, the role kinda stuck (though you try not to lash out like you did that day). 
You smiled at the memory. You started your way towards the front until you heard a few light snores coming from a seat further back to your right. Huh, guess I missed one. You walked back to the seat, almost yelping in surprise at who you saw. 
Asahi? The ace slept with his own duffel bag propped up against the window as he snuggled it like a pillow. Half his face was buried into the bag while the other half was still in a peaceful slumber. Little bits of his brown hair fell around his forehead and over his ears from his bun. One longer strand of hair fell out over his nose, and would lift up slightly whenever he let out a small snore. You wondered how he didn’t wake up from Yuu and Tanaka yelling as they got off. Daichi and Suga did say that Asahi sleeps like the dead, but you’ve never got to actually see that for yourself. 
You felt heat crawl up your face and ears at the sight of him. Asahi’s face was usually always concentrated, scared, or smiling. But this was somehow different. Seeing him sleeping like that made you stop dead in your tracks and stop thinking rationally. What’s worse? He’s not even trying. Asahi’s expression, mixed with his messy hair and snores, was pulling you in like a magnet. You thought it was downright adorable.You wanted to sit by him, maybe get a little closer. Close enough that perhaps you could smell the scent off his jacket or… 
Your blushing got worse. You liked to keep these thoughts under wraps, but when they did come up you couldn’t help but get flustered. Fortunately, sitting next to him was as far as you got. 
Hesitantly, you reached over to grab and shake Asahi’s shoulder. “Asahi,” you whispered. He didn’t budge. God, you were so lucky that no one could see you doing this. Under normal circumstances, with everyone in here, you would have been redder than a Nekoma jersey. “Asahi,” you whispered a little louder this time, shaking his shoulder a bit more. When he stirred and sucked in a breath, you flinched and stood up so quickly that you thought your spine snapped. But sadly, it didn’t, and now here you are, watching as Asahi opened his eyes ever so slowly. 
When he sits up and his eyes finally land on you, you glued your eyes to the seat you were just sitting on. “O-Oh, (y/n)! Are we here?” Asahi asks in a groggy voice while looking up at you and then out the window to see the inn. 
“Y-yeah!” you answered, cursing your voice for going a little more high pitched than you planned. You forced yourself to look up at him and conceal your blush. “I woke you up…” Just as he rose, you started to walk to the front with Asahi now not that far behind you. You swore, even just feeling him walking behind you was setting off butterfly cannons in your stomach. So, you composed yourself and tried to just walk straight.
But, what if you stopped? What if you leaned back, felt the warmth of his broad chest against your head… who are you kidding, both you and him would have a heart attack if you ever tried something so bold. You couldn’t seem to place how these thoughts entered your head about someone so fragile like that...
Both of you got off the bus and walked side by side now toward the lobby. You were mentally smacking yourself for thinking such things with him so close by. 
When you entered the lobby, you took a seat and forced yourself to stop and think about something else. 
“I’m going to put my stuff upstairs, see ya (y/n)!” Asahi called to you, turning for the stairs. Man, you were so caught up in your own thoughts that you didn’t even talk to him! Just how awkward can you get-
“See ya for dinner!” you called from over his shoulder as he, much to your relief and dismay, disappeared upstairs. 
You let out a small sigh as you watched him disappear. Of course, you’ve fallen for the Ace of Karasuno. You just couldn’t help it. Asahi is one of the greatest friends you have and probably the most caring and understanding person you’ve ever met. He interested you too, how someone that big and imposing could be so gentle. Not only that, you did think he was really attractive. You started feeling this way at the beginning of your second year, and it didn’t take long for everyone to catch on. Heck, even the current first years have noticed it (Tsukishima teases you about it so much you have to remind him to respect his fucking elders and their problems). Somehow Asahi hasn’t caught on, probably due to his usual softie mentality. 
That’s probably for the best. Not wanting to screw up your friendship with Asahi is probably the reason you’ve never confessed anyway. Probably.
But you’re running out of time. After this tournament, you have a few more weeks before you both graduate and you go off to attend university. So maybe you’ll just enjoy the time that you have with him, even if you most likely won’t tell him in the end.  
___________________________________________________________
Asahi walked up to the boys room with his duffel bag, his mind a flurry of thoughts. Should I have stayed back with her? No, that would seem a little creepy… What do you mean creepy? She’s your friend! Shoot, I didn’t even tell her thank you for waking me up! Great going Asahi-
When Asahi entered the boys room, he was met with Kageyama being shoved into him, causing him to drop his bag. 
“Ah! Sorry Asahi,” Kageyama apologized as Asahi bent down to pick it up. 
“I-it’s fi-” 
“Yeah Baka-yama! Say sorry!” Hinata shouted from across the room, sticking his tongue out at Kageyama. 
“You’re the one that pushed me, dumbass!” Kageyama roared before storming back over to Hinata. 
Asahi chuckled and made his way over to where Suga and Daichi were watching the pair fight from a safe distance. 
“Hey, Asahi! Why’d you take so long to come up?” Daichi asked. He looked a little concerned, maybe even worried. Him and Suga really are just like his parents… 
“O-oh no r-reason I-” he began. Asahi tried to avoid eye contact as his own voice began betraying him again. Eye contact was dangerous with these two sometimes, even if they were his friends. Both Suga and Daichi raised an eyebrow at him. “Um… I fell asleep on the bus a-and… (y/n) woke me up,” he muttered while getting quieter as he said your name. 
“Aww, well isn’t that sweet!” Suga cooed with a teasing smirk. Asahi swore, whenever he brought you up when you weren't around, they were always quick to tease him. Maybe they are his parents…  
Asahi felt a tiny blush begin to form on his cheeks as he stuttered “S-S-Suga, can we not talk about this right now…” 
Daichi let out a disappointed sigh. “C’mon Asahi, you’ve basically had a crush on her since she became a manager. You gotta tell her already!” 
“Tell who what?” asked Hinata who suddenly appeared beside Daichi. Asahi went stiff as a board, looking nowhere else than his shoes. 
“Tell (y/n) that he likes her,” he heard Tsukishima say from beside Hinata. “What? Did you not know that he has feelings for her?” 
“Wait, you mean… those kinda feelings?” Hinata’s voice got louder. It felt so loud that Asahi thought he was going to faint from the embarrassment. 
Yamaguchi was quick to chime in with Tsukishima. “Well yeah! Hasn’t Tsukki told you this before?” How did they know?! Noya didn’t tell them… right? 
As if on cue, Tanaka and Nishinoya also joined the conversation. “Yeah man! Who would’ve thought that Asahi would have a crush on such a hot girl like her, huh? What’d you think Noya?” Tanaka asked as he laughed along with the group. 
“Asahi!” Noya yelled right into Asahi’s ear, scaring the living shit out of him. Almost the whole room went quiet. Noya pointed straight into Asahi’s face, causing his eyes to widen and look at his finger. Noya then began speaking as if he were talking of destiny, “Azumane Asahi, as Nishinoya (y/n)’s younger brother, and as her sole protector for life, I grant you permission for you to court her, and-” 
“Oh please. Do you even know what the word “court” means when you say it like that?” Tsukishima snickered. Asahi’s body went cold with chills as his face flushed crimson. “You’re basically giving him permission to-” 
“Would you guys shhhhhh!” Suga screamed at them before dropping his voice to a whisper. Oh thank God for Suga- “The girls room is right next door! They could’ve heard you for all you know! Have some respect…” Hinata squealed a ‘sorry’ and Tsukishima just walked away with a smirk. Noya gave Asahi a firm slap on the back. Everyone else that took part in the conversation left to do their own thing.
Suga put a gentle hand on Asahi’s shoulder, causing him to look into his eyes. “Look Asahi, whenever you’re around (y/n), I notice a slight change in you. You’re not super tense. You’re actually a lot more relaxed around her. You’re more confident and a lot more happy. She pushes you to do better unlike any one of us. You gotta tell her how you feel, and you have to do it soon, Asahi.” 
“Yeah, and even if she doesn’t feel the same way, she isn’t the type of person to avoid you afterwards,” Daichi adds, giving him a reassuring smile. 
Asahi blushed again before smiling at the ground. Is that really how he seems around you? Sure, some of what Suga said is true. He does feel a slightly bigger push when you’re the one to give pep talks before games, and it would be a lie to say that he wasn’t happier around you, but he thought everyone felt that way… 
And the other things that Suga said? Asahi would just have to see for himself. Confess to you? Him, who has never been so in love with someone, and just happens to have no experience when it comes to that same department? He’s even surprised that words just came so naturally with you but confidence be damned! He never prepared himself for this! 
Well, it is his third year after all… maybe he could learn a thing or two before ending high school. What does he have to lose? 
“Y-Yeah...alright.” 
There was a knock before the door opened. “Alright guys, meeting in the conference room in five. Dinner will be ready shortly after!” Coach Ukai yelled above the conversations. As soon as the team responded, one by one each boy began to leave the room. Daichi gave Asahi a small pat on the back before leaving with Suga.  Soon, Asahi was the only person left in the room, and the only tension present was created within his thoughts. 
___________________________________________________________
You leaned your head back and closed your eyes as you let the steam and heat of the bath allow you to unwind. Kiyoko and Yachi had already climbed in with you. You sat to the right of Kiyoko and Yachi sat on her left. 
“Rough day so far, (y/n)?” Kiyoko asked with her usual calming gaze. You could tell why almost all the boys were so into her. Seeing Yuu, Tanaka, and even boys from other teams try to hit on her was one of the funniest things to you. There was no denying that Kiyoko is pretty, and she always had this earthly calm about her that you just couldn’t put your finger on sometimes. Kiyoko has been your closest girl friend since you started as a manager, and now even Yachi was one too. 
“Yeah,” you groaned. It may not seem like it to everyone else, but you had been stressed almost since you woke up this morning. First, there was the tension of the boys first game. Then, Kiyoko had to run back to grab Hinata’s bag that he left at the train station. The stress went away slightly after the boys won the first game, but the tension was still there now that they have to win the next one. To top it off, the boys just found out at their meeting that they would be going up against the team was ranked #2 to win nationals. Not to mention, their setter (according to Kageyama) was on the All Japan Youth team. If that didn’t make everyone’s anxiety for this tournament any worse, you didn’t know what did. You’re definitely going to make sure that the boys settle down to get enough sleep tonight. 
Kiyoko and Yachi listened as you went on your rant about the day. But as you continued on, you let something slip out. “Not to mention, I woke up Asahi on the bus today. Asahi of all people! Then when we walked back I didn’t even say anything! I got so caught up in my own thoughts that I didn’t even realize how awkward I was being…” 
You paused, realizing what you just said. Your hands flung up to conceal the blush now forming as you muttered something incoherent about not meaning to say that. 
“Honestly (Y/N), I think it’s pretty funny how you react around someone like Asahi!” Yachi giggled. Kiyoko must have been pointing things like that out to her…
Kiyoko smiled at you. “She’s right, you know. It’s almost like you two switch personalities when you’re together.” 
You turned your body to face them. “T-that’s not true!” you argued. The massive blush on your ears and face said otherwise. “I’m still the same person!” 
The bathing room went suddenly quiet as if they were silently disagreeing with you. You turned to face forward again. It was if there was still another question that hung in the air that remained unspoken. “(Y/N)?” It was Yachi that spoke up. 
“Yeah?” you asked somewhat hesitantly. 
“You’re not...nervous to tell him you like him… are you?” Yachi asked. Your breath shuddered. There it was, that unspoken question. While it might seem normal for a person to be nervous to tell someone they liked them, much less to feel nervous about other things, ‘nervous’ was not a trait among the Nishinoya siblings. In fact, no one believed you and Yuu have ever felt nervous before. Despite Yuu’s personality being different from yours, it’s still centered around that shared trait between the both of you. The Nishinoya siblings were known on the team for being the fearless ones, Yuu in his playing ability and happy-go-lucky attitude, and you with your confident decision making and ability to push each player to do their best. It’s what made you two so reliable. You and your brother never got nervous… right? You guessed maybe that should only be said of Yuu now. After all, how can someone have no fear if they can’t confess to a silly little crush… 
Maybe that’s the reason you’ve never confessed. This entire time, you thought the reason you never told Asahi how you felt was because you didn’t want to mess things up between the two of you. 
I’ve been lying to myself this whole time, you thought. But, I shouldn’t lie to my friends about it…
After a few more minutes of silence, you spoke up. “Yeah. I am nervous.” Both of your friends looked to you. As you continued, your voice became lower and quieter as you sounded out your thoughts slowly. “This entire time I’ve been telling myself that maybe it was better this way because he probably wouldn’t return my feelings, but I guess I’ve been stalling.” 
“That’s ok (y/n)! It’s perfectly normal for someone to get nervous over someone they like!” Yachi reassured you. 
“She’s right,” said Kiyoko, putting a hand on your shoulder. “Try to be yourself around him. He’s actually a lot more confident around you than you think, so it should be like having a conversation with someone like Daichi or Suga. Just try to take those baby steps, ok? If you talk to him tonight, tell us how it went afterward.” 
You smiled timidly at your two friends. “Okay, I will.”
___________________________________________________________
You stared at your phone and groaned. 9:00pm.
The boys would not shut up. 
While Kiyoko and Yachi were settling down into their own sleeping areas, you calmly went over and asked Daichi if he could settle down the boys a little. That was 30 minutes ago…
Oh well, you thought. Kiyoko and Yachi were asleep now, so you thought it would be fine. It had been a while since the team got to hang out as just a plain group of chaotic high school boys rather than a serious volleyball club. They’re on this trip to have some fun too. 
But if they're not quiet by 10:00, you’re definitely making sure they actually fall asleep. 
With a sigh, you turned off your phone and made your way across the dark room. Careful not to wake your friends, you tiptoed to your bag in the corner and fished out your favorite pajamas: an old yet suitable t-shirt and a fuzzy pair of light orange shorts. 
After changing, you grabbed your small toiletry bag and walked out of the room. Across from the girl’s room was a small washroom that was shared among all three of the rooms. You were sure that no one would enter since all the boys were in their room and Ukai and Takeda went drinking again. The washroom was completed with two sinks surrounded by a wooden counter, and a public toilet further back in the room. 
You set your stuff down on the sink closest to the door. As you started to brush your teeth, you questioned if you should stay up longer tonight than usual. You didn’t feel that tired yet, and you did hear that there is a balcony near the rooms. 
You leaned over the sink to spit before faintly hearing the door open. You quickly spit out the excess toothpaste and wiped your mouth on your sleeve before looking to see who stood in the doorway. 
“(y/n)?” Asahi stared back at you with his wide brown eyes. He had switched his tracksuit for a plain white t-shirt and a pair of grey sweats, which you assumed was his sleepwear. He had a small green bag under his arm. Was he washing up too? 
“Oh, I’m sorry I thought no one would come in here,” you tried to laugh about it as you quickly started to pack up your toiletries. Damn, you’re just acting nervous around him again! 
“No! You can stay, I’ll just come back later,” he smiled politely and turned to leave. 
“Wait!” you called before you even realized what you were doing. Asahi turned to look over his shoulder, surprised. Baby steps rang in your head as you took a breath and said “There’s another sink if you want to use it…”
Asahi peered over your head. “Oh! Sure...” He walked past you to the other sink and you turned to your own bag. As you brought out a comb to run through your hair, Asahi started to run the water in his sink as he fished out his own toothbrush. 
Almost on instinct, you started talking to yourself in your own head, even when you desperately wanted to talk to the boy next to you. Should I even say anything in the first place? No… baby steps (y/n)! Remember! Ok, what should I say? “So how do you think tomorrow will go?” No, the tension for tomorrow is already high enough. “Nice… weather? here? in? Tokyo…?” Goddammit why is this so hard-
You sighed through your nose and put your comb back. As you looked for the next thing you needed to find in your bag, your eyes slowly drifted to Asahi. He was looking at himself in the mirror as he ran a knuckle along his jaw and muttered something about needing to shave. You assumed he decided against it as he fished out a brush and a bottle of… detangler? 
One part of Asahi was happy and glad that you were sharing the washroom with him. But, the majority of him was feeling like an anxious wreck. It was only three hours ago when Asahi had promised his friends that he would finally confess his feelings to you. And now you’re here with him, alone, and you haven’t spoken a word to each other. Maybe he should say something about it now, close the gap he so desperately wanted to reach. Was he ever going to get a good enough opportunity such as this (even if it was in a washroom…)? 
As Asahi got out his brush and detangler, he decided that maybe he would just talk to you for now… yeah. But, what is there to talk about- 
“Is that lavender detangler?” 
He raised his eyebrows and turned to look at you. You looked first at the detangler in his hand, and then up at him with a quirked eyebrow and wide, expecting eyes. You held your face wash in one hand and a hair tie in the other. And those pajamas you were wearing… gosh you looked so cute. 
“Oh… yeah. It’s kind of weird I guess,” Asahi chuckled and scratched the back of his neck. 
“No, not at all,” you replied matter-of-fact. “I was actually kind of wondering why some parts of the gym smelled like lavender and I was trying to figure out who it was!” You laughed. It’s true, some corners of the gym started smelling oddly great (for a gym especially). When you asked Kiyoko and Yachi if they had bought new perfume, they both replied with no, and so you became suspicious. 
When you turned away to wash your face, Asahi took out his bun and began his own nighttime routine. Your butterflies fucking exploded as you rubbed the face wash gently into your skin and listened to the soft spurts of his detangler. 
___________________________________________________________
For the rest of your time in the washroom, both you and Asahi held great conversation. Though the time was little, the detangler topic led to both of you complaining about your hair consistency, to what color you both would want dye your hair, to favorite colors, to favorite school subjects, and then finally to what you were talking about now, favorite parts about school. 
“Well that’s easy. Being the manager for the team,” you replied nonchalantly. 
“Really?” Asahi packed up the rest of his things in his little bag and turned to you. He left his hair down. You were leaning against the door, your own bag under your arm. Seeing him with his hair down is having you battle the flutter in your stomach as you try to get used to the new sight. 
“Well yeah, but I guess I have to thank Yuu though after all. If he didn’t play volleyball I would probably be tripping over myself in a dance club or something!” You both laughed. 
He was still laughing as you caught a glance of his face. You wanted to see his smile more. You wanted to hear him laugh more. You just wanted to keep talking to him. This is the first time you’ve been able to have a normal conversation with him without stumbling over your words and you did not want it to end this quickly. But at the same time, you probably shouldn’t keep him if he’s tired. 
Asahi felt a little conflicted inside. It was clear that both of you were done washing up, but he still wanted to confess, but… well maybe now isn’t the time after all. It was still great to talk to you though. 
You opened the door and walked past the doorway. “So um, are you going back to the room?” 
“Well, I guess. But I probably won’t be able to sleep because of the noise. That’s the reason I came to wash up a little earlier.” Asahi responded. The moment was slipping away...
Maybe that’s one thing to thank the boys for. But is there some way to keep talking to him? He obviously doesn’t want to be by the rest of the team. Maybe you could save him from them for a couple of minutes. But where- 
“Um… a-are you tired?” This was about to take a lot of courage from you…
“N-no…?” Asahi was a little confused by your question. What were you about to ask him? 
“Do you wanna go hang out on the balcony for a bit?” You finally said it. A huge weight was lifted from your shoulders, but the even larger weight remained as you waited for his answer. You squeezed your hands behind your back and gulped. You prayed that he didn’t notice how nervous you were… 
Asahi just stared at you for about 2 seconds, because 2 seconds was all his brain needed to overcompensate and overthink everything you just said. Did you say hang out on the balcony? As in like, with you? Alone? Together? No one else is there, right? Why? Just to keep you company? Because he said that he didn’t really want to be by the rest of the loud and obnoxious team? Did you really care enough about that to invite him on the balcony? Did you actually like talking to him? 
No, that couldn’t be true… 
Right? 
“Yeah. We could do that.” 
___________________________________________________________
You stood on the balcony, eagerly awaiting Asahi. You leaned over the railing as you took in the cold evening. The wind blew just enough to leave a slight shiver through your body and stir your hair. The lights and sounds of Tokyo filled your senses as you watched the bustling city from afar. You took a look up. The pollution of Tokyo meant you couldn’t see stars, but you imagined they were there. There wasn’t a single cloud in the sky, save for the occasional airplane flying to or from the city. You brought your gaze back down and stared forward in silent thought. 
Asahi was grateful that you had arrived at the balcony first after you both left to put away your toiletries. He tried his best to get into the room to put his things away, grab his jacket, and be out of the room where the boys were now playing truth or dare. Noya caught him and tried to convince him to join in, but he politely refused and left without another word. He would have to explain himself later. 
And now, there you were. You didn’t notice him behind you on the balcony. His gaze softened as he took a moment to admire you. 
You were the only thing that immediately captured his attention, as always. Not the blinding lights of the city beyond, not the atmosphere around him, just you, with your back turned to him as you faced Toyko. Asahi’s breath hitched in his throat. It was in that moment that he realized that nothing else mattered. Not even breathing mattered. The lights weren’t as beautiful, the city wasn’t as loud, and the chill in the air wasn’t as prominent. Everything else seemed to dull and fade, leaving only you. 
Why? 
There was just something more captivating in the way your hair flowed in the wind that he seemed to forget that the wind was the reason your hair moved so fluently. The way you were standing and observing the view, almost as if you didn’t know that if everything else had eyes, then everything would be gazing and admiring you just like he did every day. The way your eyes were shining so perfectly ahead that the stars would become jealous and try to take that shine, but he would never let them because no matter how high and mighty the stars might be, no matter how many of them there were, you were so much more above them in his own eyes. 
His thoughts were broken when your body jerked in a slight shiver. He realized that you had forgotten a coat because you were still wearing the same pajamas. 
It was a lot windier than you thought it would be. You wrapped your arms around yourself and rubbed your bare arms. You were in such a hurry to put your things away that you didn’t have time to consider the weather. 
You jumped when you felt a slight pressure on your shoulder, and then something laying across them. As you reached your hands up to feel what it was, you ran your fingers across the material of a jacket, and then heard the shuffling of someone next to you. Then you realized… 
Asahi was here, and he gave you his jacket. 
You turned to look at him. He was standing about a foot away from you to the right. He had his elbows propped against the balcony railing as he leaned against it. His shoulders caved slightly inward as he stared at the ground. His eyes were casted downward in a way that he almost looked ashamed, but if not, then just lost in thought. A slight tint splayed itself across his cheeks from the cold. The wind moved through his long brown hair like a dance and ruffled his white shirt against the muscle that laid beneath. 
Your heart caught in your chest. Your breathing stopped as you clutched the jacket. 
This was a new sight. He didn’t look scared. He wasn’t smiling. He wasn’t sleeping. He didn’t look exactly concentrated either. 
He looked… ethereal. 
His eyes caught yours and he stood a little straighter. “I-I… you looked cold… so… sorry if it’s weird...” His eyes casted off as he spoke. He’s adorable. 
“N-no” you assured. “Not at all! Um, thank you...” 
“You’re welcome... “ he smiled at you before looking down again. It was odd. It wasn’t like his body was anxious, more like just his eyes were. Could he… maybe? Unless he was just trying to be nice. 
You looked down and held the jacket closer to you. Your blush was growing by the second. It may be a possibility. The jacket smelled like the lavender detangler and cedarwood. Not only that, it was warm. It smelled and felt like him, like your Asahi. Well, he wasn’t yours just yet. 
Just yet. 
Asahi didn’t even know why or how he managed to give you his jacket. He just felt a surge of feeling that had him act. He knew it was love, but at that moment, he never felt it so strongly. It was almost as if it were his instinct to want to make you feel happy and comfortable. Maybe he should act on that more. 
Maybe he should act on that now. 
You talked up first. “So, um…” you mumbled just loud enough to be audible. “How are you feeling… about tomorrow?” You instantly regretted the words as they left your mouth. You couldn’t think of another topic, so you just blurted the first thing that came to mind. 
“Um… well, if I said I was feeling alright about it, I would obviously be lying,” he chuckled. 
“Well, I think you’ll be alright once you get out there and kick ass like always,” you said, trying to ease his nerves. You sounded so sure of yourself. That was new, especially around Asahi. 
“(y/n)...” 
“Yeah?” 
“Thank you for supporting me…” he faced you as he leaned against the railing, smiling at you, though he didn’t make eye contact. “It really means a lot…” 
You gave him your best smile while clutching his jacket. “No need to thank us. We all have to push our ace so he can do his best!” 
He blushed. Something popped into his head, and before he could stop himself, he said it out loud. 
“No one pushes me to do my best as much as you, though.” He scared himself when he said it. He couldn’t even turn away. He just… looked at you. You were still so captivating. So much so that his anxiety and fears couldn’t even distract him now. 
You blushed. Did he just say that? Did he… there was almost no doubt now. Your heart started to beat so loud that you couldn’t focus on your own thoughts. You could only focus on him. 
You were looking at him with those beautiful eyes again. This was it. Now. He had to do it now. 
“(y-y/n)...” 
“Yeah…?” You turned to him. 
He opened his mouth to speak, but nothing came out. He couldn’t stop staring at you. 
So captivating. 
There you stood, patiently waiting. 
“Asahi, are you-” 
“I love you, (y/n).” And that’s when the words began to tumble out. “I can’t believe I’m doing this… but it’s the truth. Ever since you became a manager for our team, I’ve never been able to get you out of my head and... and, I’m not sure how to feel about it. You’re just beautiful, and strong, and perfect… A-and I want to give you everything. I want to give you… more than everything really. But I’m just...I’m just…” 
He kept his eyes closed the entire time, brows furrowed and hands glued to his sides as he spoke. Were you actually hearing this? The person you’ve loved for so long confessing that he loves you- 
You felt this buzzing, warm feeling inside your heart. It spread like wildfire throughout your body, burning you and your senses down to the one source of the truth behind the flames which is that he. loves. you.  
He squinted as he opened his eyes to look at you. You looked… confused. You just kept staring at him. He felt this cold shiver as his cheeks flushed in embarrassment. He clenched his fists. Here it was, you were about to reject him. Why did he even try- 
“I love you too, Asahi.” 
“What?” 
“What?” 
For a moment you two just stared at each other. You both couldn’t believe what you were hearing. Meanwhile, the same fire was spreading throughout Asahi. Burning down all insecurities, all negative thoughts. It was just that one fact. 
You love him too. 
And like fire, it spread throughout both of you quickly. Burning, destroying, until it bubbled over and- 
That space between you ceased to exist as you stood on your tippy toes, grabbed him by the collar of his shirt, and kissed him. You didn’t know what you were doing, but you didn’t care. You’ve waited too long to tell him how you’ve felt and this kiss lifted the last weight from your consciousness. You didn’t have to pretend. You didn’t have to be nervous. You were free. 
Asahi didn’t know how to feel at first. Was this actually happening? Were you… kissing him? Well, of course he knew that but he never thought it would happen. 
He wasn’t kissing back. You opened your eyes and leaned back, separating you from his lips. Was that too far? “Ah, s-sorry I thought-”
You were cut off by him quickly swooping in and returning the kiss while leaning down to wrap his arms around your waist. You closed your eyes and kissed him back, wrapping your arms around his neck and tangling your hands in his long hair. His lips were warm and surprisingly soft. You giggled as the scruff from his stubble tickled you. His kiss was so gentle that it was as if he thought you were a porcelain doll, and that if he put too much of himself on you, that you would break. It was loving and sweet, and filled with as much care as he could give you. 
When you both leaned back, he looked down at you. So small. So amazing. 
So perfect. 
Those were his words before he leaned again, pressing himself closer to you. Your back steadied itself against the railing as you continued kissing him. His hands travelled to cup your face, one hand resting itself against your soft skin and the other running itself through your hair. This kiss was just like the last but filled with more need and passion. The fire was growing. Here, nothing else mattered. The lights didn’t matter, the air, the city. Just you, with your lips on his.
When you leaned back again, he smiled as you kissed him on the nose. “Not as perfect as you,” you replied. You laughed as his face scrunched in confusion, and then when he realized what he had said out loud before he kissed you. 
“So, uh, does this mean… W-well, only if you want to of course! But, ah, what I’m trying to say is-” 
“Yes Asahi, I’ll be your girlfriend,” you said to him while rolling your eyes and smiling. It seemed that after your kiss, your confidence had returned. How could he kiss you like that but not be able to ask you out? He’s so awkward, and handsome, and yours. 
Both of you chuckled, finally before leaning in again. Finally yours. 
That’s when you heard the metallic door on the other side of the balcony open. 
“HEY ASAHI- woah” 
___________________________________________________________
"So that's when I opened the door, and Asahi and (y/n) were making out, and-"
"Noya, stop-" Asahi pleaded.
"Dang, who knew that Asahi had game," Tanaka wheezed.

HAIKYUU X THE OFFICE AU — EPISODE SIX: SUGA’S GOT A SECRET
Tumblr media
pairing: sugawara koushi x female reader
description: now that ukai knows of sugawara’s feelings for you, it’s only a matter of time before the big secret spreads throughout the office, leaving sugawara with plenty of damage control to do.
word count: 6.3k
also available to read on my ao3 here
author’s note: tumblr keeps playing games when it comes to this au showing up in tags, which may be because of “foul” language apparently, so i’m gonna “censor” this episode and see what happens. it will be uncensored on ao3 though. if you missed episode five, IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ IT. it’s INSANELY annoying how tumblr keeps messing with me, and that’s honestly why i (along with literally every writer on here) press about reblogs. likes don’t do anything, reblogs do. not to sound like a pain in the ass, but how can you expect your favorite authors to feel inclined to write if you’re not helping them get exposure? anyway… i feel really good about this episode creativity wise (as i reworked the original episode a TON), and think it might be one of the better episodes i’ve written along with next week’s valentine’s episode. i hope you enjoy!

Tumblr media
for the second time today, you returned to your desk with your teapot full of hot water. it was scorching against your hands, but you had to be careful with your steps in order to avoid any spills. you’ve been doing this practically everyday since the office christmas party, so none of your coworkers were phased by it anymore.
“hot, hot, hot.” you whisper to yourself.
you place the teapot down and let out a sigh of relief before sitting down in your chair. the crew watched as you pour the hot water into a mug and pulled out a dish full of sugar of creamer packets, ones you recently acquired so you could be more efficient with your tea. it wasn’t necessarily the excitement the documentary was hoping for, but they kept the cameras on you in anticipation for something with suga to hopefully come up. unfortunately, nothing spicy had occurred.
you stirred everything together before taking a sip, letting out an “ah, that’s the stuff.”
•••
“i’ve been loving the teapot suga got me for christmas.” you say with a grin. “it gives me an excuse to drink more tea rather than coffee at the office, and not the kind you spill, if you catch my drift.”
you give a wink to the camera, but there might as well be crickets as none of the documentary crew laughed at your joke.
“none of you found that funny?” you pout.
•••
out of nowhere, daichi huffed and puffed as he emerged from the break room. “ugh, who in god’s name spilled coffee in the break room and didn’t clean it up?”
not again, you think to yourself. there was always someone leaving a mess somewhere in the office. it was like working with a bunch of children most of the time. you could almost always point your finger on who was to blame, but it’s not like anyone would admit their wrongs, like tanaka, who was responsible for most messes in the office.
“wasn’t me.” he immediately objected. you almost wonder if he spoke up first on purpose so the suspicion would go to someone else.
“you know i don’t drink coffee.” tsukishima said, which was true. you would find him always drinking some sort of strawberry soda, which you tried once and swore it was the most disgusting drink you ever tasted.
“yeah, and y/n has just been drinking tea lately.” suga spoke up. he immediately regretted saying anything as tsukishima, yamaguchi, kiyoko, yachi, and tanaka all collectively eyed each other. his cover was slipping terribly, but suga couldn’t help but feel the need to defend your honor.
“well, whoever did it needs to clean it up because i’m not doing it.” daichi crossed his arms.
“you know no one is gonna fess up, daichi.” tsukishima rolled his eyes. “this happens every time.”
“and i’m not gonna be stuck with the mess again!” he whined. “it’s like how you all expect asahi to reach everything on the top shelf when we invested in stepladders for a reason. those things weren’t cheap.”
the camera panned over to asahi as everyone quickly turned their heads to look at him. “why… why are you guys looking at me like that?”
“well, some of our coworkers happen to be leprechauns, you know.” kageyama said, evoking gasps out of hinata and nishinoya.
“oh, that’s not—” you began to say before covering your mouth with your hand. it was best if you kept out of this one.
“kageyama, that’s offensive to short people!” hinata exclaimed with a pout. “after everything we’ve been through…”
“my point still stands.” kageyama shrugged.
before hinata and kageyama could break out into a fight for the umpteenth time—one where tanaka would definitely yell out “world star!” and pull out his phone to record—ukai came out of his office in order to investigate what his employees were arguing about rather than actually working.
“something the matter? what’s with all the chatter?” he asked, immediately recognizing his clever rhyme. “oh, i rhymed! that’s bars right there.”
“someone spilled coffee on the floor in the break room and left it there.” daichi explained to him. “as if this office needs any more mess, it’s a disaster around here. we need to do something about the cleanliness of our work environment.”
“hmm… let me think.” ukai stood there pondering for a minute, resembling the thinker. some of you wondered if he was posing that way just for the sake of striking a pose. it definitely wouldn’t be a surprise if he was.
“uh, hello? earth to ukai?” daichi waved his hand in front of ukai, thinking he was frozen.
“i’m thinking.” he muttered, trying to stay as still as possible, down to barely moving his mouth. yeah, he was posing just to pose. typical.
everyone continued to wait for ukai to suggest literally anything, but he stayed in his position for far too long. thankfully, yamaguchi decided to speak up, but he would quickly be shut down by ukai.
“why don’t we all just clean the whole office together—”
“let’s all just clean the whole office together!” ukai interrupted yamaguchi, taking all the credit. “yes!”
“i just said that…” yamaguchi frowned.
“it’s spring cleaning, baby!” ukai clasped his hands together.
“but it’s not even spring?” tanaka questioned. he should know better than to question his boss at this point.
“so? who cares?” ukai shrugged. “don’t make me assign you to cleaning the men’s room.”
“no, please! anything but that!” tanaka begged. ukai instantly found joy in this, giving the camera a sinister, yet also off-putting stare.
•••
“i’m such a genius. if you do your spring cleaning in the winter, then you won’t have to do anything in the spring!” ukai said, praising himself as if it were his idea. “only i could think of such big brained ideas.”
“yamaguchi suggested it before you spoke over him.” a crew member spoke up, having documented it on camera.
“who?” ukai furrowed his eyebrows. it was almost hilarious how he couldn’t remember who he was.
•••
while some were assigned to clean certain parts of the office, others were cleaning out their desks, which everyone was mandated to do today. it seemed like “spring” cleaning wasn’t such a bad idea after all as many found random miscellaneous items, having no idea when they were from. tanaka even discovered why his desk had such an odd odor, which was because of an expired donut. everyone gagged at the sight and smell of it as he chucked it in a trash can and ran off.
as you were cleaning out your drawers, yachi walked up to your desk with a bottle of carpet cleaner and a scrubbing brush.
“hey, y/n. here’s that carpet cleaner you asked for.” she said as she placed it down on your desk.
you look up from what you’re doing and see yachi right in front of you. you had been waiting for your chance to use it as there were limited resources to share. thankfully yachi agreed to give it to you after she was done with it.
“oh my god, thank you.” you let out a sigh of relief. “daichi would flip if he saw the coffee stains under my desk.”
“trust me, i know… we’re desk buddies.” yachi groaned. she wasn’t particularly fond of the seating arrangement around here. at least you had your own little space, one where suga could steal pining glances as much as he desired, which reminded her. “how’s wedding planning going, by the way? did you start yet?”
the initial excitement of finally setting a wedding date sent you into overdrive, your mind racing of all the things that needed to be done to prepare for a wedding. as much as you dreamed of this, you didn’t think you’d be stuck doing all of the planning alone. ryo hadn’t made a single contribution yet, and despite your families expecting you to walk down the aisle, some doubts couldn’t help but brew up in your head.
“oh, uh, i bought my veil recently.” you reply. you hadn’t even picked a dress yet, despite having a long way to go, but picking a veil just seemed easier for right now.
“aw, that’s so exciting!” yachi couldn’t help but feel bad that suga was overhearing this conversation, given his eyes were fixated on you as he waited for you to speak, which wasn’t that hard to notice. “how are you gonna do your hair then?”
“well, i was thinking about wearing it down. kind of like—” you take out your hair clip and let your hair down, fluffing it up a bit to show yachi. “—maybe something like this?”
suga felt his heart still for a moment as he intently watched you fiddle with your hair. he wished he’d seen you like this before as you always wore your hair up at work. why were you hiding such beauty? it pained him to think about ryo always being the one to see your hair untamed like this at home. even if you failed to realize it, you were drop dead gorgeous in suga’s eyes.
“wow, you look so beautiful. you’re gonna make people cry.” yachi said, already able to think of one person without hesitation.
as yachi spoke a little too loud, ukai—being the nosy boss he is—overheard your conversation and decided to butt in. with poor timing, at that. “woah, y/n. why don't you wear your hair like that all the time? it's so much hotter than what you usually do.”
you cringe and roll your eyes as you reach for your hair clip. suga let out a sigh, wanting the savor the sight for a little longer. maybe another time, he hoped.
“man, this must be torture for you.” ukai said as he walked past suga. suga’s eyes widen as he looked around to see if anyone overheard that, and thankfully no one did. everyone was too occupied with cleaning to bother, it seemed.
•••
“yeah, on the booze cruise i told ukai about some feelings i used to have for y/n.” suga explained, albeit poorly. “i was just… feeling nostalgic, i guess, and i decided to confide in the world's worst confidant.”
used to have? even the documentary crew could see right through such a pathetic lie.
•••
later that day, suga knocked on ukai’s office door. as expected, he wasn’t cleaning his office one bit. do as ukai says, not as ukai does, apparently. it wasn’t a shock, to be honest.
“hey, ukai.” suga said as he entered ukai’s office. ukai quickly turned down the volume on his computer—seemingly not doing any productive office work either—and looked up to see what suga wanted. “remember that thing i told you on the booze cruise about y/n?”
“boy, do i?” ukai asked. he had been reeling ever since the bombshell was revealed to him. it was more exciting than the lame reality tv he usually watched at home. “of course i do.”
“well, that was, uh, pretty personal, so if you can just…” suga paused. how could he make this sound the least offensive to his boss? “if you can make sure you don’t tell anyone else about it, that would be great.”
“what? oh yeah, my lips are sealed. like the bangles song.” ukai said.
suga furrowed his eyebrows. he didn’t feel confident in that answer. “that was the go-go’s.”
“just get back to cleaning.” ukai scoffed.
“you got it.” suga nodded. it seemed he just had to take ukai’s word for it, but some worry still lingered.
•••
“suga and i are great friends. we hang out a ton, mostly at work, but the fact that he poured his heart out to me about y/n during booze cruise says everything about our friendship.” ukai said. “and because of that, i intend on keeping that information a secret for as long as i possibly can.”
“are you implying that it will spill out eventually?”
“course not. i’m the best at keeping secrets.” ukai then started to sweat profusely. he cannot keep this secret for long. “is it hot in here all of the sudden?”
•••
while suga was cleaning his desk, ukai emerged from his office with what seemed like the sole purpose of bothering him. his careful tiptoeing towards suga was evident, even if he tried to be sneaky. “suga…”
“yeah, ukai?” he looked up, ruining ukai’s opportunity to potentially scare him.
“whatcha doin’?” ukai asked. “you like football?”
“uh, ya know, cleaning. like you asked me to.” suga deadpanned. “plus, i’m more of a volleyball guy.”
“oh, yeah, makes sense.” ukai said before getting to the real point of this conversation. “so, any news on you know who?”
suga initially wondered why ukai would be bothering him like this, especially in the middle of the day, but now it was painfully obvious. of course it would be about you, but here, right on the open floor? it’s like ukai was asking to publicly embarrass suga. the poor lad had been through enough embarrassment these past few months. the documentary has seemingly only made it worse.
“time and place, ukai.” suga shook his head in annoyance.
“i just want to know more about your love life, suga.” ukai pouted. of course, he had some valid concerns. suga was just crying to him about his dilemma not that long ago, after all, but still, why here and now?
“like i said; time and place.” suga insisted.
“but—”
before ukai could plead his case, tanaka interrupted this conversation, seemingly out of jealousy over ukai newfound closeness to suga. “woah, what’s going on here? you guys besties all of the sudden?”
“um, yeah, we’re besties, tanaka.” ukai replied. suga wanted and scream and say that he was wrong. they would never be besties, never. “we tell each other secrets and stuff.”
“secrets? what secrets?” tanaka raised an eyebrow with a smirk. he instantly thought of one secret only a select few knew of, and suga knew he’d be thinking of it. “i know secrets.”
suga had to get tanaka off his back somehow. the combo and him and ukai would be a total disaster when it came to his secret. “deep, dark secrets?”
“wha… what do you mean?” tanaka questioned. it was hilarious how he was falling for this.
“oh, you know…” suga paused for dramatic effect. “the kind of secrets that could send people to jail.”
“oh my god…” tanaka let out a gasp then ran off like a scaredy cat. maybe that award went to the wrong employee on awards night.
that actually impressed ukai quite a bit. he wouldn’t say it out loud as he always had to be the very best, but ukai was definitely impressed.
“welp, back to work.” suga shrugged. this desk definitely wouldn’t clean itself, and he wasn’t sure if he could trust anyone else to go through his things. maybe he could trust you. knowing you, you’d organize everything by what you thought was worth keeping and what wasn’t, then let him figure out if your guesses were right.
“hey, uh, wait.” ukai said, catching suga’s attention once more. “what are you doing for lunch? i could take you out. my treat.”
lunch? with ukai? suga wasn’t sure if he was all too fond out that idea. free food, sure, but having to deal with ukai alone at a restaurant seemed like a bad nightmare. you never know what could happen in such an event.
“ah, no, you don’t gotta do that.” suga said as he quickly tried to think of an excuse to get out of this. “i gotta… ya know… clean and stuff.”
“what about we set up a picnic in the break room?” ukai proposed. “order some pizza and talk about you know who.”
nope. nope, nope, nope. suga knew ukai was just itching to talk about you. the only feasible solution was to get as far away from the office as possible and go out for stupid lunch. the sacrifices suga had to make for the sake of keeping his secret, well, a secret.
“haha, um… you know what? yeah, let’s go out. that’s a good idea, man.” suga stood up from his chair. ukai jumped up and down, overjoyed, which brought more attention to them. suga figured going right now was the best bet, so he quickly grabbed his coat and briefcase in order to leave right away. “let’s go now, actually. what place you thinking of?”
“oh, i know just the place.”
•••
after an awkward drive, ukai and suga found parking in the city before walking over to a popular strip of restaurants. suga assumed being a boss had its perks as there was no way he could afford to eat like this all the time. thank god ukai was paying for this.
there seemed to be amazing places to eat around here, but suga found ukai leading him to the outside of what seemed like a… maid cafe?!
“ukai, what is this place?” suga asked, hoping and praying it wasn’t what he thought it was.
“it’s my favorite spot.” ukai said, noticing suga hesitate. “i go here all the time. come on.”
“if it’s what i think it is—”
“it’ll be fine!” he interrupted suga. “don’t be shy now.”
suga let out a sigh before he followed ukai inside. it was exactly what he thought it was. he was at a maid cafe.
“no… no, no, no.” suga shook his head. this couldn’t be happening to him right now.
suddenly, a pretty woman in a maid outfit walked up to them, greeting ukai first as he was a regular. “mr. ukai! come, come have a seat wherever you’d like.”
“sana!” ukai greeted her. it was even worse that he knew the employees by name.
“there’s no way…”
•••
“ukai took me to a maid cafe.” suga said through gritted teeth. he was being interviewed outside the cafe, other cameras filming what was going on inside as ukai was being pampered by the waitresses. suga was lucky to have a chance to rant. “he took me to a F*CKING maid cafe.”
“you know you’re—”
“god, i’m tired of you guys scolding us over language. you’re just gonna cut most of this sh*t out in post anyway.” he cut off the crew member. he wasn’t necessarily wrong, but the poor editors had a lot of work cut out for them with the way the employees of japan pulp and paper act. maybe they were better off documenting another branch…
•••
meanwhile at the office, tanaka walked up to your desk unannounced, digging his fingers into the bowl of jellybeans you always had out for everyone. you don’t even wanna know where his hands have been. now that you think about it, does he ever wash his hands? you wanted to gag.
“tanaka, can you not shove your hands in the bowl like that?” you ask with a disgusted look on your face.
“whatever. all the good flavored ones are gone.” tanaka rolled his eyes as he continued to dig into the bowl.
“it’s a communal bowl…” you sigh.
“am i not bestie material?” he asked you out of nowhere. “i thought me and ukai were besties.”
you weren’t sure why he was asking this all of the sudden, but if validating him meant he’d leave you alone, then you’ll do it. “yeah, you’re bestie material, tanaka…”
“would you ever consider me to be your best friend?” tanaka questioned.
now, tanaka was a terrible worker, but he wasn’t necessarily a bad friend. he would definitely do crazy things for the sake of his coworkers. you remember on your first day tanaka told you he kept ninja stars under his desk incase of intruders and he would defend you in an instant. sometimes he was a little dumb, but he had a good heart, shockingly enough.
“sure?” you shrug.
“excellent.” tanaka said before walking away all of the sudden.
while he wasn’t looking, you quickly grab the jellybean bowl and throw away its contents. you stare at the camera for a moment as they’ve captured what you’ve done before panning to ukai and suga returning from lunch. you instantly smile upon seeing suga’s face.
“hey.” you greet him.
“hey.” suga said as he hung his coat up.
ukai eyed the two of you before going into his office. you wondered what that was about, but you shook it off and went back to talking to suga. “so, how was lunch?”
“oh, you know, pretty productive.” suga then held up a printed picture from lunch, one with him, ukai, and a bunch of waitresses in maid outfits posing together. it was worth the money. “got a lot of work done.”
you blink for a moment as you soak in the picture in front of you. never would you have guessed that out of all places. still, it was hilarious.
“you’re the worst.” you say jokingly. “there’s no way.”
“ah, but there is.” suga replied. he blushed as you began to uncontrollably laugh. it was adorable. he found it to be one of his favorite sounds in the world.
you manage to control your laughter after a few deep breaths. no more joking around. “pretty sure you’ve got more cleaning to do.”
“yes, ma’am.” he jokingly saluted before going back to his desk.
suddenly, kiyoko stormed up to ukai’s office. you couldn’t remember the last time anyone ever saw her so angry like this. you even feared steam would come out of her ears, and since she was knocking on ukai’s door, you knew it wasn’t anything good.
“ukai, takeda and i need to talk to you.” she barged in.
ukai raised his hands defensively, acting as if he were getting arrested. “i didn’t do it, your honor!”
“what?”
“…what?”
kiyoko didn’t have time for nonsense. she was livid. “ugh, come on. you’ve got some explaining to do.”
before ukai could try to protest, kiyoko dragged him away from his desk and led him to takeda, the last person ukai wanted to talk to right now. it didn’t matter what the matter was, he hated talking to human resources.
“specs, what do you have the female specs dragging me here for?” ukai groaned as kiyoko forced him to have a seat.
“uh, a new charge appeared on the corporate credit card—” takeda began to say as calmly as possible.
“you spent a hundred bucks at a maid cafe! you didn’t even get approval for this!” kiyoko interrupted him, yelling over takeda. if there was any good cop, bad cop action happening, it was clear who fit which role.
“it was a business lunch!” ukai argued. “who said i needed approval?”
takeda let out a sigh. there was a reason ukai couldn’t be trusted with anyone’s money, even his own, for that matter. he felt like he had to treat him like a child, despite ukai being the one in charge.
“ukai, you just got your corporate credit card back.” takeda scolded him. “do you really want me to take it away again?”
“what am i, a five year old? this is ridiculous!” ukai exclaimed.
“corporate is gonna be so angry!” kiyoko argued with him.
“look, suga needed a relaxing lunch.” ukai explained. “he’s been depressed and it’s been affecting his productivity. how is that not work related?”
kiyoko froze. now she’s wondering if ukai knows what she knows. does he know what she knows? takeda didn’t seem to budge by ukai’s explanation.
“he seems fine to me.” takeda shrugged.
“you're not his friend, you don't know what i know.” ukai said. “he is in love with a girl he works with who's engaged, so just cut me some slack, okay?”
unbeknownst to them, nishinoya overheard the whole thing as he walked by. “are you talking about y/n?”
no way that just happened. ukai is at a loss for words, same with kiyoko. he messed up big time.
•••
“this is bad. so bad.” kiyoko said frantically to the camera. it was safe to say she was freaking out. “did suga tell ukai? or did he figure it out? god, suga! you’re such an idiot! i can’t stand this madness!”
•••
thanks to ukai’s big fat mouth, suga’s secret had spread throughout the entire office like the plague and he had yet to figure it out, but he would soon enough.
the first person nishinoya told was asahi, who didn’t really have much of an opinion on it as he was merely a temp. once word got to hinata, however, that was when the train really started rolling. suga had no chance to swear nishinoya to secrecy, so his secret was finally spilled to everyone. well, everyone except you… for now.
hinata rushed to kageyama’s desk. had he gone any faster, he would’ve crashed and knocked over all of kageyama’s things, even his computer. it certainly wouldn’t be fun having to pay for a new one.
“jesus, hinata!” kageyama jumped out of his chair. “what are you tryin’ to do to me?!”
“nothing, nothing!” hinata exclaimed. “guess what? suga has got it bad for y/n.”
woah. even kageyama couldn’t pass up hearing such juicy information. he was rather impressed in suga’s taste in women too. you were a rather attractive woman, after all. “what? really? not bad, suga. not bad…”
ukai walked by as hinata spilled all the beans to kageyama. as hinata noticed ukai’s presence, he just had to get his opinion on the matter. after all, it was ukai’s fault the secret was revealed to everyone.
“hey, ukai. do you think suga is gonna try to break up the wedding?” hinata asked.
ukai was put off by such an outlandish question. he felt so guilty about this, as shocking as it was. suga actually put his trust in him, and he blew it in less than a week. some boss he was.
“hinata, suga is my friend, so the only people that this crush really concerns is suga and y/n...” ukai said. “and also me.”
of course, ukai had to make some of this situation about him. no surprise about that.
as suga tried to get some cleaning done, he felt as if there were more cameras on him than usual. to test the theory, he got up to go to the bathroom. the crew dared to follow him, but suga stopped before entering. there was no way he could let them film him doing his business.
“did the production value go up or something?” he furrowed his eyebrows. “what’s going on?”
before the crew could respond, nishinoya appeared, asking suga the last question he thought he’d have to hear. “suga, why didn’t you tell me you had a crush on y/n?”
his heart dropped instantly. it’s happening.
•••
suga had to carry out this interview in the calmest way possible. he was livid, sure, but there also was a bit of relief. the burden of his secret was so hard to carry most days. but the only way he could make it out of this alive is if he played it off like he used to have a crush on you.
“well, the cat’s out of the bag. i used to have a crush on y/n and now i, uh…” suga hesitated. “don’t. how thrilling...”
the poorly fabricated lies continued.
•••
now that suga got that dreadful interview was over with, it was time for him to talk to you about the newfound elephant in the room. as he discovered everyone was talking about this crush behind your back, suga decided he was better off confronting you about it. besides, it was either you find out through suga himself or ukai.
suga found you alone, knowing this was the only time and place he could get through this conversation. he didn’t need anyone else hearing in on this.
“hey.” suga spoke up. you look up and see his face, your calming smile putting him at ease.
“hey.” you say. “did you find anything good in your desk?”
“oh yeah, i found a coupon for a free sandwich.” he said. there had to be a way to bring up his crush somehow. “it expired in august, but i did find my phone charger from two years ago.“
“wow, big day.” you reply. big day was quite the understatement.
“i don’t even have that phone anymore.” suga chuckled.
“even better.” you grin.
“yeah.” he blushed.
thinking that was the end of the conversation, you began to leave the room, but suga quickly stopped you. this was his only chance, he couldn’t let it slip away.
“hey, uh, listen…” suga said as you stop in your tracks. you look up to see what he has to say. shockingly, this was harder than he thought it would be. “um, i told ukai on the booze cruise—it’s so stupid—but uh, i told ukai that i had a crush on you when i first started here.”
you felt your heart skip a beat. he had a crush on you when he first started here? now your mind raced back to suga’s first day at japan pulp and paper. he seemed so nervous, so you were the one to welcome him with open arms as you had only been with the company for less than a year at that point. you knew what it was like to be the newbie, so you wanted suga to feel more at ease. you didn’t think anything more of your kindness back then.
“oh…” is all you manage to muster out. you can’t believe you were so blind to it all. now you felt silly for only just now developing a crush on him within the past couple months. it was wrong on so many levels now.
“well, i thought that, uh.” he stumbled with his words. “i figured you should hear it from me rather than, you know, ukai of all people…”
“right…” you nod. even you could agree with that. that would result in a much more awkward interaction with your boss.
“and seriously, it's totally not a big deal, okay?” suga insisted. “and when i found out you were engaged, i mean, you know…”
right, of course. that cursed ring on your finger. no wonder he didn’t see you that way anymore, right? at least that’s what you thought was the case.
“no, yeah, i get it. i mean, i kind of…” you pause. lie, just lie, you thought to yourself. “i thought that maybe you did when you first started.”
“oh, you did?” suga questioned. now he felt a little stupid.
“well, i mean, just cause we got along really quickly…” you shrug. it was the best excuse you could think of on the spot, really. you clicked with suga faster than you did with anyone else. maybe there was a reason to that, now that you think about it.
“oh, so you saw right through me, great.” he forced a laugh.
“yeah.” you giggle. you were thankful suga fell for your sham, him feeling the same. “so are you going to be like totally awkward around me now?”
“oh, yeah, yeah... hope that's okay.” suga replied with a hint of sarcasm.
“mhm.” you nod.
“and y/n?“
“yeah?”
“it was like three years ago, so i am totally over it.” suga said. even if he was far from over it, he had to lie for the sake of saving face. he didn’t want to give up since ukai told him not to, but suga couldn’t let you know the truth just yet. this was merely dipping his toes in the water.
“yeah, cool.” you say before finally leaving the room. suga figured he kept you for far too long, anyways.
“alright, cool…”
•••
“so… suga had a crush on me, huh? emphasis on had, i guess.” you shrug. “more reason to move on from my own silly crush, right?”
the crew share a collective look. you wonder what they’re all thinking. was there something you still didn’t know?
“right..?”
•••
suga was thankful his conversation with you went rather smoothly. all he had to anticipate now was ukai’s explanation for the mess that’s been made. who knows what ukai will manage to do, he was so predictable yet unpredictable at the same time.
ukai jumped when he heard suga knock, even worse when he saw his face. he knew exactly what this was about, so ukai had no choice but to motion for him to come in.
“hey.” suga said, closing the door behind him. no way could anyone else hear this right now. suga would lock the door and board it up if it had to.
“i know, i know, i know.” ukai sighed. “i messed up.”
it was actually a surprise to suga that he was owning up to his mistake. he figured he should go a little easy on ukai for the time being, depending on his future responses. “yeah, i was kinda wondering what happened with that…”
“i um… you know, expense reports.” ukai said, frantically trying to explain his way through this. “and then stupid specs! he’s such a goody two-shoes, disgusting. he got all on me about our lunch—”
“the one at the maid cafe.” suga interrupted him. the puzzle pieces were coming together.
“yes, the one at the maid cafe! said corporate was gonna be mad about it, and…” ukai began to tear up, not even trying to fight back his emotions. “i ended up spilling the beans! it was an accident, honest! god, i hope this doesn’t affect our friendship, suga!”
wow. and to think suga was just crying to him merely days ago. now the tables have turned. suga didn’t know whether this was sad or hilarious. would it be wrong to think it’s both? he sure thought of it to be both ways.
as much as suga wanted to totally flip out and scream his head off, he just… couldn’t. for one, he’d probably lose his job, but this situation was inevitable. secrets can’t stay secrets forever, no matter how much you want to hold them close. they always make their way out of your grasp somehow.
“hey, hey, hey. relax, man.” suga tried to calm ukai down. “it's… it’s not a big deal.”
ukai wiped away snot and tears, which was quite disgusting. “it’s not?”
“yeah, it’s fine.” suga let out a sigh. “it was bound to come out one way or another, i guess. everything’s gonna be alright, okay?”
“yeah… okay.” ukai nodded. he was thankful to not be on suga’s bad side, which he‘s never seen at its fullest potential. no one has, really. suga is far too patient for this disastrous company.
“good… good.” suga said. “see ya.”
man, ukai was such a violent crier.
as suga left ukai’s office, he eyed you for a moment, seeing you were walking over to where he just was. you would have no choice but to see ukai crying like a toddler, which no one should ever have to see in their entire life.
“good luck.” he quickly whispered to you as you walked past him, confusion written all over your face.
huh?
shrugging off suga’s random comment, you head into ukai’s office anyway, not even bothering to knock as the door was already open just a bit. nothing seemed out of the ordinary to you yet, as if ukai isn’t unordinary anyway.
“hey, here's your schedule for next week.” you set the paper down on ukai’s desk before noticing he’s wiping away tears. “woah, are you okay?”
“yeah, i'm fine.” ukai sniffled. “look, about you and suga—”
“oh no.” you shook your head. was that what he was crying over? woah, did suga make him cry? nice. “ukai, you don't have to—”
“no, i feel like it's my responsibility as your boss and also your friend.” he cut you off, but you didn’t see any need for this. you and suga cleared the air already, right? plus, ukai considering himself your friend was quite a stretch.
“no, really, it's okay.” you insist. “i know that suga had a crush on me when he first started or whatever. but that was a long time ago, so…”
“what? no. it wasn't that long ago. it was on the booze cruise.” ukai said.
what the heck could he possibly be talking about?
“suga had a crush on me on the booze cruise or he told you about it on the booze cruise?” you furrow your eyebrows.
ukai very quickly realized he messed up once again. he figured he was better off shutting up for once in his life. “ahh… yeah… i’m just gonna… shut my mouth. i’m clocking out.”
“oh… okay.” you say quietly as ukai stood up and walked out of his office so he could leave for the day. it was about five o’ clock, after all.
you follow ukai on his way out and see suga packing up, putting his coat on before grabbing his briefcase. he can detect your presence, even when leaning over for his briefcase as he could see your mary jane’s in his vision. black and shiny, just the way they always were. you never, ever left them scuffed.
“you need a minute?” he asked as you walked by.
“yeah, just need to get my coat on.” you reply.
suga waited for you to pack up before you walked out together, both heading towards the elevator. you and suga enter, just the two of you, stealing glances while the other wasn’t looking until your eyes inevitably meet. you can’t even deny how often he makes your heart race, it was almost a nuisance.
you didn’t know how long this song and dance would last, but you needed this feeling to go away before june. it simply can’t go on any longer.

Stars-Aligning
'boys suck, and girls I've never tried' - chappell roan
word ct. - 1113
warnings - a small panic attack(?), mostly fluff, fem!reader is implied but anyone can read :)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You've never been one to have crushes. Sleepover gossip times would always make you pick at your skin for 5 minutes trying to remember all the boys in your grade so you can blurt a name out when asked who you like. But when you got into college something changed. Something that goes by the name of Kiyoko Shimizu. You first heard about her when in a group project with Yachi, she had suggested that Kiyoko tag along to the cafe meet up that you guys had planned - a simple 3rd person to keep conversation flowing so there’s no random awkward silence. 
Wrong; you were incredibly wrong. In the entire 2 hours you guys were there, you got 2 things done: writing your name and finding out Kiyoko was the prettiest girl you’ve ever seen and that the way her lips move when she talks is mesmerizing; maybe that’s why everything she said you completely agreed with - is this what your friends talk about at sleepovers? Is this what movie scenes are made from? Is this normal? 
Obviously you know what being gay meant, you’ve seen gay couples in movies and even around campus, so why was this the worst whiplash you’ve ever experienced? And why are you getting so nervous and sweating when she asks for your number? Why do you only let out a shaky - mousy - ‘yeah’ 
Tumblr media
The only information you absorbed is that the prettiest girl you've ever seen is in your contacts and that she likes peaches and ice cream. There’s only one reasonable response to this information - type out 4 draft messages asking her to the local ice cream parlor. Who would know better how to ask her out on a completely platonic and friendly ice cream date? Yachi. 
You’ve never felt more awkward in your entire life; you could smell the tension before the conversion even started. “Well… I say just ask in the friendliest way possible… this one right there,” she points to the 2nd message, “seems like you're rambling a lot, and the one below that sounds like you're demanding she go.” Yachi explains - a little concerned by how concentrated you are after explaining how this is a ‘totally friendly and chill meet up because she seems cool’ for about 10 minutes. “Okay…so like… the last one? Or are the emojis too much?” “The last one is perfect, she actually texts with a lot of emojis too.” “Okay perfect…” both of you sit in silence for 20 seconds before you blurt “can you please send the message for me.” 
Tumblr media
It was set, you're very casual friend hangout, was the next day at 2pm. Although the state of your room said that you were evacuating by 2pm tomorrow; clothes thrown from your closet had basically made it out of your room, forgotten t-shirts now seeing the light of day, even pants that you’ve been meaning to return to a friend had found its way onto the outfit roster. But after what felt like the zombie apocalypse, you put together an outfit that had one inspiration - Kiyoko Shimizu. 
It was just to seem cool right? To hope that she'll want to be good friends right? And maybe kiss? Do good friends do that? 
Tumblr media
This was a bad idea. This was a bad idea. This was the worst idea you’ve ever had. Gripping the steering wheel so hard you make a mental reminder to call a mechanic and breathing so hard you reach for a non-existent inhaler. You’ve never had a worse timed star- aligning ever. You can see her in the window, occasionally glancing out the window waiting for any sign of you, but you’re too busy having second doubts because your gay awakening is waiting for a obviously, for sure, ‘no wonder Yachi was awkward’ date. You try to quickly regain yourself after seeing Kiyoko start to look down at her watch every 6 seconds. Checking your face in the mirror and fixing your hair in the shop’s window reflection, you finally open the doors and come face-to-face with the most attractive cause for your midlife crisis. You're not even 25.
“Hey, sorry I’m a little late, I was picking up my room a little and lost track of time,” well that's not a complete lie, you had folded about 4 shirts and then rethought your entire outfit and started from scratch. And then she did the smile, the little lift up that makes her beauty mark move 3 cm from its resting place, “It’s really no problem, just glad I wasn’t stood up.” Oh god oh god oh god oh god oh god. Being stood up means a date. This is for sure a date. You're glad you didn’t over analyze but also panicking because you just processed what a lesbian is in the car you’ve had since 17.
“Yeah, sorry again, I didn’t mean to leave someone like you waiting,” are you actually stupid. ‘Someone like you?’ You’ve been homosexual for 5 minutes and already messed up. “Hope that’s a good thing,” she says sarcastically before walking up to order. “I’ll get the peach please, and what would you want?” She looks at you. She focuses on you. “I’ll just get the same thing” a smile. She smiles at you. “Sounds good, do you want to find a table while I pay?” “Oh you don’t have to pay f-” “No no, it’s okay.” You're starting to understand why your friends freak out when a guy offers to pay. 
Tumblr media
“Okay- so- wait. He asked you to marry him after only seeing you?” you ask holding back a laugh, “Yes! I still give him a hard time for it too,” Kiyo - she insisted you call her that - was laughing telling you about her time in high school, while checking her watch, “Oh! It’s already late! Sorry for non-stop talking, I feel like that’s all I did.” You quickly try to recover as you both stand up and throw your trash away, “oh no it’s okay, I loved hearing about you.” After making it through the front doors, she turns to you and smiles before leaning in and giving a small kiss, “Well maybe you can tell me about you next time.” “Yeah! Of course,” you reply too quickly for you not to cringe when thinking about it later. She does the smile again, the same smile, “Make sure you text me when you get home… I’ll see you soon.” “Yeah of course, have a goodnight…” You watch as she walks away to her car before slowly sitting getting into your own. You're surprised the shop owners didn’t come running out after the excited scream you let out.

Ushijima YN: Being Ushijima's Sister
and Secretly Dating Kiyoko
Tumblr media
Kiyoko Shimizu X fem! Reader
Warnings: again none (who is she 🤣 wholesome who?)
A/N: This is an Anon request! This one is also pretty self indulgent because Kiyoko would be an AMAZING partner!
🏳️‍🌈 Please Like, Share, Comment to support my writing 🏳️‍🌈
Ok- nobody panic
*Que Tanaka and Noya panicking*
We all knew this day would come ok
The day Kiyoko was snatched up
Honestly pray for Karasuno 🙏🏻
It's about to be at least a months worth of mourning ☹️
Who will hold Suga's hand?
Who will deflect rogue balls to save Yachi 😱
Who will smack all the butts?
Definitely not Kiyoko 🤣
Ok in all seriousness
This is a big deal 😬
Fortunately Kiyoko knows this and is very much prepared
You, however are not 👀
But before we get to that, let's get into how you met your lovely girlfriend 🙌🏻
Que a tournament 👏🏻
Not sure which one, they all blend together at this point
But you were there cheering on your brother and SHIRATORIZAWA 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
Oh did I forget to mention your brother is Ushijima Wakatoshi
Making you Ushijima YN 🤗
Love that for you
Anyways, since our lovely Shiratorizawa bbys have no Manager
You volunteered to help
Did I say volunteered? Oh silly me, I meant forced
You were forced to fill up water bottles by Semi who literally saw you walking into the gym and handed you the bottles
"Here's YN you're not busy"- Semi handing you the teams water bottles
You 👉🏻👁👄👁 I'm just here to watch-
"Come on YN be a team player!"- Tendou
"YN isn't on our team Tendou"- Ushijima 😐
"You know what, fine I'll help"- you walking away to fill up the water bottles
Suddenly you see greeted with the sight that is Kiyoko
Hear that? That's angel's singing 😇
👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 need I say more
Tumblr media
You are completely stunned by her beauty
You manage to somehow navigate your way to the water fountain while staring at her
Honestly YN get a grip 🙄
You start to fill up waterbottles, while staring 😳
Seriously YN-
"Umm your water bottle is overflowing"- Kiyoko says as you look down to see the water flowing all over
"Crap- uh I'm sorry"- you mutter
Kiyoko laughs and smiles
"Don't be! I'm Kiyoko and you are-"
"Yn- it's nice to meet you!"- you say shaking her hand
You talk a little while you fill water bottles and walk back to the gym
Before it's too late, you gather the courage to just go for it and ask
"Hey can I get your phone number? You seem like a cool person"- you say, blushing
"Yeah!"- Kiyoko says grabbing her phone and waiting for you to give her your number
"I texted you! See you around YN"- she says waving as she runs away
You quickly make your way back to the gym to see the boys gearing up for their match
"What took you so long YN?"- Kawanishi asked
"I'm literally doing free labor. Be thankful!"- you sneer
"You could at least do it in a timely manner"- Shirabu says
You 👉🏻😐 YN out ✌🏻
As you walk to the bleachers you check your phone to see Kiyoko had texted you
"Hey cutie 🥰"
Someone please make sure YN is breathing OK 🤚🏻
Thus begins the ship known as KiyoYN
You start hanging out with Koyoko whenever you can
Going to bookstores and coffeeshops on the weekends and sometimes hanging out at the library doing homework
It's honestly a super wholesome relationship 🥺
It's calm, fun and a nice break from reality
Until is comes completely crashing down 🥰
Now you and Kiyoko were never under the illusion that your relationship would be a secret
You just enjoyed not sharing what you had with the public
And by "public" I mean Karasuno and Shiratorizawa
So let's get the easiest one out of the way first shall we
We all remember Kageyama and Hinata's visit to Shiratorizawa
The one that apparently got Ushijima in trouble
Anyways, our two little dummies accidently left their waterbottles laying on the Shiratorizawa grounds 🙄
Please can you imagine him being disaplined at all 😅
Someone's literally yelling at him and Ushi is just like " 🧍‍♂️ 😐 "
How do you disapline a tree??? Like fr-
When Hinata and Kageyama tell the team about what happened
Daichi about loses his ever loving mind
Suga is trying not to laugh
And Kiyoko is just rolling her eyes 🙄
Tsukishima is filming it for the Karasuno Volleyball teams Instagram page
Side note 👇🏻
Karasuno and Seijoh's volleyball teams both have an Instagram page and follow each other 🤚🏻
Kunimi runs Seijoh's and Tsukki runs Karasunos
Back to the program
"Now how are we going to get those water bottle back? We should make you two march over there, apologize and beg for them back!"- Daichi
Hinata and Kageyama do not want to do that
"I'll get them back"- Kiyoko interjects
"Sweet Kiyoko we will not allow you to put yourself in danger!"- Noya shouts
"Really it's fine"- Kiyoko says taking out her phone and calling you
"Hey YN can I swing by and grab Hinata and Kageyama's water bottles?"- she says
"Of course! I'm waiting for Wakatoshi but I'll be outside the gates"- you say
"Great see you in a bit" she says putting her phone away and changing her shoes
"Be right back"- Kiyoko says taking off and running to Shiratorizawa 🏃‍♀️
Everyone is stunned
Who is YN? How does Kiyoko know you? Why do you go to Shiratorizawa?
"OH MY GOD WHAT IF KIYOKO GETS KIDNAPPED?"- Tanaka yells as he takes off after Kiyoko 😱
Please it's literally just a trickling effect of panic
Soon the entire Karasuno team is chasing after Kiyoko as she runs to Shiratorizawa
Meanwhile you are outside the gates waiting with the water bottles
You look to see Kiyoko approaching and wave 👋🏻
Only then to see, out of the corner of your eye
The entire Shiratorizawa team approaching from the right
Well crap 😐
"Hey YN" -Tendou say waving
Ok play it cool YN
Suddenly Kiyoko is in front of you, smiling as she grabs for the water bottles
Shiratorizawa is quickly approaching and now Karasuno is coming up from behind
WHAT IS HAPPENING???? 😲
Everyone stops when Kiyoko leans in taking the bottles from you and kissing your cheek
The world 👉🏻 Gone. Exploded.
Shiratorizawa 👉🏻😐😳😱
Karasuno 👉🏻😐😳🤯
You 👉🏻😅😅😅
Kiyoko 👉🏻🥰🥰🥰
"Uhh YN- what's going on?"- Reon asks
"Well- you see-"
"Yn and I are dating"- Kiyoko says
Just throw it out there
Transparency is best 👏🏻
Tanaka and Noya look and point at you
Then they look at point at Kiyoko
You both just nod
Tanaka and Noya 👉🏻 faint 💀
Ushiwaka seems to be the only one unimpressed by this development
"YN you look very happy"- Wakatoshi 😐
You 👉🏻 I am 🙂
"Then I'm happy for you"- Wakatoshi
You and Kiyoko 👉🏻😳🥺 really?
Everyone else is still top stunned to speak
Finally Suga manages words
"Kiyoko you seem happy"- Suga
"I am, very much"- Kiyoko
You laugh and shrug
"Well ok then. YN it was very nice to meet you. Sorry for- well, this"- Suga says pointing at Tanaka and Noya on the ground
Poor Ennoshita is just standing over them like "Well what now-"
Shiratorizawa is still too stunned to speak
Tendou 👉🏻🖐🏻👁⭕️👁🖐🏻 YN WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME
"She just did"- Ushiwaka
"I meant sooner!"- Tendou
Please YN, get a hold on it
Well YN, sometimes fairytale have to come to an end
"We were enjoying just being together"- you say
"Yeah without all of this"- Kiyoko says gesturing to thing 1 and thing 2 on the ground
And yours ended in chaos 🤣
Good thing you still got the girl 🥰

Tumblr media
character: s. kiyoko genre: fluff warnings: reader has some hair and likes cats a fair bit. very slightly childish reader. slightly ooc kiyoko. reader x fem! character. also, the ending’s a bit abrupt and weird. (i’m sorry if you feel excluded by any of this) wc: 253 words summary: a potential storm cancels your date with kiyoko (that you were excited for) a/n: hellooooo! i’m finally back with a new fic and this time, it’s for all of my fellow lady-lovers. inspired by my crush making me lay on her lap to rest when i said i was a bit sleepy hehe. your ideas can also be my inspirations, btw, as long as you send them here! stay safe y’all. also, happy pride month <3 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
Tumblr media
the windows are open, unlike every other day, to let the breeze cool down the house before the storm hits. the forecast hadn’t said anything about an upcoming storm, but judging from the clouds, you both knew that it was a safer bet choosing to stay inside. you frowned at the sky, mentally cursing it as you leaned onto kiyoko’s shoulder. you were, unsurprisingly, bummed. you’d been looking forward to spending some time with your girlfriend and the cats at the cafe after a long week, and apparently it was too much to ask for.
“stupid clouds,” you muttered. “you dumb clouds are ruining everything, you know that?” you asked, knowing full well that there wasn’t that high of a chance of you actually getting a response.
kiyoko laughs, “you’re so worked up about this.” she tentatively starts running her fingers through you hair, growing more sure in her actions as you lean into her touch.
you close your eyes and hum, feeling content with her pampering. “of course i am, i wanted to go to ai cat with you. and this dumbass rain is ruining it,” you complain and rest your head on her lap. “i mean, is it really too much to ask for?” you pout.
she shakes her head and smiles. “you,” kiyoko whispers, “are so adorable.” she pinches your cheek, earning a whine of her name from you. she laughs again, leaning down to press a kiss to your nose. “don’t worry, baby. we can just go there tomorrow.”

Surprisingly sweet
Asahi x popular girl!reader
This is actually based on a short comic I made about a year ago, I recently remembered it and thought the idea was still super cute so here we are (˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ )
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Asahi's been on edge recently.
And it's because of none other than you, the girl sitting behind him in class. For reasons unknown to him, you've been staring him down all the time recently.
Whether it be behind him in class, in the cafeteria as he ate, or just randomly in the hallway. He tried to ignore it as best he could, but deep down it was getting to him.
It didn't help his nerves that you were one of the popular girls, one of the girls every guy in the school talked about, one of the girls with atleast 3 confession letters in your locker every morning, one of the girls who set the school's fashion trends. Sometimes he would notice you staring at him, then turning to your friends and giggling.
You were going to start bullying him any day now, he thought. Your friend group never bullied anyone before, but what if he'll become first victim?
Today is no different. He felt your eyes on him throughout class. When the final class was over, he quickly got up to leave as soon as possible, feeling too much fear and pressure from your gaze.
"Azumane-kun, wait!~" he froze, slowly turning back to find you smiling at him. It looked rather ominous to him. He was like a deer in headlights, having no idea what to do.
"O-Oh, hello..." he mumbled awkwardly, trying his best to smile and not fall apart right now.
Suddenly, he felt his arm being grabbed. "Come with me!" you said, not even letting him answer before dragging him off. While he normally wouldn't budge so easily, he was too nervous about the whole thing to resist.
He didn't get to see your face at all as you dragged him along, which didn't help with calming his nerves in the slightest. You lead him into an empty classroom, closing the sliding door behind him.
His worst fears are confirmed, no one takes someone to an empty classroom to do something innocent. His life is over...
"Azumane-kun, are you okay?" your concerned tone caught him off-guard and he quickly stammered out an "I'm okay!" He was expecting something harsh, like an order to buy you a snack, or something.
You stepped closer to him, cheeks turning pink. "So, I brought you here because I wanna play with your hair!" you said with sparkling eyes and a bright smile on your face.
"...Eh?"
Out of all the things you could have asked him, he was expecting this the least. "Play... with my hair?"
You giggled at the confused expression on his face. "I'm sorry for just dragging you here with no warning, I just couldn't help but admire your hair recently. It's rare for guys to have long hair, you see, and I wanted to try playing with a guy's hair for once."
"Oh... Well, umm, sure? Why not?" Asahi felt a wave of relief wash through him. Now he felt bad for misjudging you. You were probably just staring because of his hair, weren't you? He still felt a little nervous around you, since you are really popular, but you don't have bad intentions, right?
Your face lit up at his confirmation, cheerfully taking various hair products and accessories out of your bag, placing it on an empty desk next to you. Asahi seemed surprised by this, wondering if you even have space for notebooks with all of this hair stuff in your bag.
"You don't have to be nervous. I was actually worried you wouldn't accept because I'm so popular but I promise I'll take good care of your hair." you said, taking a brush and gently pushing him down on one of the chairs.
He nodded, taking a deep breath. He noted the excitement behind your eyes as you gently undid his bun, stepping behind him. "Don't worry, the brush is clean. I always clean it after playing with someone's hair. Don't be afraid to tell me if I pull on your hair too much." you explained calmly, brushing through his hair to undo any knots.
He wasn't even thinking of that right now anyways, being more preoccupied with the fact a cute girl is brushing his hair. His cheeks turned a little pink, but you couldn't see.
"Sorry for the whole "taking you to an empty classroom out of nowhere" thing, I know how that must have looked. But from what I know, you're the type of person to be more comfortable if we do this in private."
He was surprised at the amount of consideration you put into this and suddenly felt the need to thank you. But before he could, you continued.
"For your hair, I don't reccomend keeping it in such a tight bun. I know it's convenient, but it can damage your hairline if you wear one every day." you gently reccomended.
"Ah... what should I do instead?" he turned back to you, quickly realising you can't play with his hair anymore and turning back. You giggled a little at his quiet gasp of realisation.
"Either make your bun a little looser or use an alternative like a headband which doesn't pull on your hair." you suggested, making a mental image of Asahi wearing a headband and realising you can't decide which you like better.
"Ah, I see..." he said gently. You scratched his scalp with your brush gently.
"...I like that." Asahi admitted bashfully, and you smiled brightly even though he couldn't see, apreciating his honesty.
"So, what's your hair type? High porosity or low porosity? How often do you wash it? What products do you use?" you excitedly asked. It's your hair small talk ritual.
"Huh? Sorry, I couldn't follow..." Asahi seemed overwhelmed by your rapid fire questions, not even understanding what some of them meant.
"It's okay! I just kind of have a habit of asking everyone this." you said cheerfully, going to your desk to take out a couple of hair pins and accessories. "Do you mind the pins being a little girly?" you asked, walking back behind him and gently running your fingers through his hair.
"Not really, it reminds me of the times my sister would do my hair with her own pins as a kid..." Asahi reminisced, and you smiled.
"How cute!~ I wish I could've seen that." you said, putting in the first hairpin.
"You're surprisingly sweet..." Asahi thought, relaxing into your touch. Maybe you're going to ask him to play with his hair again sometime.
He certainly won't mind.

girls like girls, like boys do ; ellie williams
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
pairing bff!ellie williams x female!reader
synopsis you and ellie have been bestfriends for all of your teenage years. while you bounced around from boy to boy, ellie was left to pine over you alone. little did she know that, all along, the only person you wanted was her.
genre slight violence (blood, fighting, arguments), mentions of weed and alcohol, homophobia both internal and harassment, lots of fluff, loosely based off of the girls like girls music video by hayley kiyoko!
wc 3.9k (i got carried away)
Tumblr media
“come on, ellie stop being a hog!” you reached for the glassy object resting between your best friend's legs. her hands wrapped around the base tightly despite her intoxicated state, making your fight even more difficult.
the two of you sat perched on your bathroom counter, your smooth legs lying across ellie’s jean-clad knees. her typical jean and opened short-sleeve button-up combo paled in comparison to your short floral skirt and white top. many couldn’t believe how close you and ellie were. her being known as the “school’s lesbian” and you being known as the "all-star cheerleading captain” didn’t put the two of you in the same crowds at all, but you couldn’t imagine your life without her there to constantly annoy you. as she was doing now.
“i’m not a hog! just don’t want you to get too fucked up.” her head lolled to the side, looking at you through an intoxicated gaze. her freckled cheeks grew flushed under the low lights of the bathroom while her eyes continued to sparkle as they always did, just now tinted red and droopy.
“says the one who can hardly keep her head up.” you argued before finally grasping the colorful bong in between your manicured fingers. to your surprise, ellie didn’t snap back, only igniting her purple lighter and helping you pull.
ellie couldn’t help but eye you as your glossed lips kissed the top, your pretty lashes brushing against the tops of your cheeks as you closed your eyes contently. you could feel her eyes practically burning holes into your head, opening one eye to peek at her as you pulled away to inhale completely.
ellie noticed the smile pulled on your closed lips before she realized you had caught her completely checking you out. “something bothering you, els?” you questioned as you blew the smoke out from between your lips.
she looked away to stare at your patterned shower curtain. the same one the two of you sat against most nights you spent together doing the same things you were doing now.
ellie had liked you for a long time. she couldn’t remember a time when she wasn’t completely enamored by you; whether it was platonic or not, she always loved you. maybe it was the way you two had been spending more time together or the fact you decided to be alone with her than at your party that made her heart lurch in her throat and beg to escape in the form of a confession, but something had shifted.
you two had smoked together plenty of times, but recently her stomach erupted into butterflies at the somewhat “kiss” you two exchanged while sharing joints or passing your bong between the two of you.
you two had changed in front of each other all the time, but recently she couldn’t help but turn and dip her head when she saw you reach for the hem of your blouse to change into your pajamas. even more so when you insisted on wearing one of her lousy band tees instead of your own since hers were “so much more comfy."
“els? what’s up?” your soft hand met the smooth skin of her wrist, breaking her from her daydream. “o-oh… it’s nothing. just dazed out, i guess.” she pulled away to scratch the back of her neck sheepishly, breaking the contact between you two.
you furrowed your brows in confusion. ellie had never been this awkward with you, especially when she’s high. sure, she wasn’t the most poetic with her words, but you never felt awkward with her. ever.
you observed her as her eyes scattered across your bathroom, beginning to grow embarrassed and worried about what was going on in her mind that you couldn’t quite seem to read at the moment.
you had never cared how ellie perceived you, knowing she liked you no matter what. recently, though, you cared a lot about how ellie saw you. when you’d get ready, you'd think about what ellie liked. remembering she always complimented when you wore skirts, those are what you reached for that week and tonight. you wanted her to think of you as you did of her.
you couldn’t help the uproar of thoughts that spun around your head like a curse, screaming to be spoken. “you wanna go back out there? dina should be here by now, and we should greet her.” you hopped off the counter, turning to face ellie, who still sat in place.
she finally averted her gaze to you at the sound of your voice, her eyes visibly softening as they connected with yours. “you… you look really pretty tonight.” she stuttered slightly, trying her best not to break eye contact. it was always so hard for her to look at you without melting into a puddle beneath her feet.
you blushed, instantly taken aback by her words. you leaned forward, placing both hands on the granite countertop beside ellie’s leg. “you look really pretty too, els.” you looked up at her slightly, the counter having given her height she didn’t have when she stood next to you.
you don’t know if it was all your feelings towards ellie or the weed in your system that led you to be so bold in the moment, but she just made it so hard.
you had many boyfriends in the past. all of them falling lower and lower onto your “tier of dickheads” (ellie’s nickname for every one that broke your heart) as they came and went.
you had grown up with the idea that you had to date boys. it’s all you saw, and it’s all you've ever known. you knew gay people existed, but you never mentioned them as much as you knew the consequences. many people in your town grew up the same way as you did, believing being straight was “normal” or even “acceptable” for someone to be.
you knew you should have liked it when your boyfriend kissed you, but you just couldn’t. kissing and touching just seemed to be a requirement in the realm of dating. sure, some of them were nice, but you liked to just be able to hang out without their tongue shoved down your throat just because you were their girlfriend.
when you met ellie and found out she was gay, your view of her didn’t change; she was still ellie. most people stuck up their noses at you or called you “crazy” but you wouldn’t trade their fake tans and cheep perfume for ellie any day.
to your own defense, it wasn’t ellie who made you realize you liked girls. you had always found girls pretty—prettier than your friends ever expressed. you always found yourself staring at the victoria secret ads in the mall for far too long just because they were "pretty".
even if ellie wasn’t the girl who made you realize you liked girls, she was definitely the girl you liked.
“i see her as more than a friend,” you continued to tell yourself as you began to doubt yourself in the late hours of the night. the internalized homophobia ate you alive at any chance you get to have alone, but in this moment with her in the bathroom, all the doubts faded into knowing. you knew how you felt.
you don’t know how long you and ellie stared at each other or when the two of you began to slowly lean in, but a loud bang on the door interrupted the peaceful moment.
“dude, hurry up! this bitch is about to puke!” you shoved your bong into the cabinet beneath the sink before opening the door to reveal two of your classmates clearly drunk beyond repair.
“oh my god, okay, okay!” you yelled at the barely recognizable faces as you reached behind yourself to grab ellie’s hand and pull her out of the bathroom and into the hallway.
ellie held onto your hand tightly as you weaved between sweaty bodies and crowded groups amongst your home. thankfully, everyone was too drunk or high to even notice you and ellie holding hands and walking so closely.
you felt a tug on your wrist as you rounded an empty corner nestled between your kitchen and the front door. you turned to see ellie smiling at you softly. “where are we going?” she asked as you dropped her hand. a faint pout appeared on her lips.
“honestly,” you began as you leaned against the wall to stare ahead at her. “i have no idea. i just wanted to get away from that bathroom before i got puke on my skirt.” you huffed, annoyed that you and ellie’s quiet moment had to be interrupted by someone who couldn’t handle their drinks.
ellie laughed at your words, turning her body so she leaned next to you against the wall. “of course your only concern is if your clothes get dirty.” she laughed, sliding down the wall to sit on the floor.
you looked down at her with fake shock. ellie always liked to pick at your very feminine actions. curling your hair, doing your makeup, tying bows in your hair—she liked to tease you for these things even if she watched in complete awe as you did them.
“you know i don’t mean it; c'mere, i'm all alone down here.” her cold hand wrapped around the skin of your calf, urging you to sit next to her. you had to swallow the scream, which threatened to spill from her hand practically burning into your soul.
you sat down, knees bumping softly, to end up resting against another. maybe it was the weed in your system, but every sense was enhanced by a thousand. the rough fabric of her jeans against your exposed skin made your body ignite with goosebumps. her toned arm brushing against yours made your chest light on fire.
“how would you feel if someone puked on your clothes?” you argued in an attempt to cool yourself down. anything to distract yourself from the overwhelming feelings churning in your stomach.
“this isn’t about me, princess.” she nudged you with her shoulder, making your body fall over slightly. you sat up and pushed her roughly, but her body hardly budged, causing a smirk to appear on her lips once again.
“you’re such a dick,” you scoffed, turning your back towards her as if you’re a toddler getting denied a toy from the store. ellie laughed at your childish antics, reaching out to grab your shoulder and make you turn around, but you just shrugged her off.
“i’m sorry, i’m sorry. please forgive me.” she begged, moving closer to try and face you again. even if you were pretending, ellie hated when you were mad at her (fake or not) more than anything.
you could see her auburn hair from the corner of your eye, causing you to turn your head slightly to side-eye her. "mhmm," you hummed before looking away again.
without another word, ellie grabbed your shoulder tightly and pulled herself away, so she now sat beside you. leaving you nowhere else to look but at her, which, evidently, was more than a difficult task.
“are you really upset with me?” even with the low lighting, you could still see the genuine concern in her eyes. you were shocked by her, only able to shake your head “no” with a small smile creeping onto your lips.
strands of her short hair hung perfectly messy in her face as they fell from her small knot on the back of her head. her lips looked softer than any sweater blanket that ever touched your body, and her hand on your shoulder felt warmer than the most perfect summer day.
you couldn’t take it anymore. you didn’t want to just look at her and imagine doing all the things you wanted to anymore. you needed them to happen before you exploded into nothing but ellie-shaped confetti.
“ellie-“
“y/n-“
you both flushed at the silliness of it all. here, the two of you sat completely infatuated with each other, cheeks pink and eyes in the shape of hearts, but still doubted if the other felt the same.
“can i kiss you?” ellie asked smoothly, catching you off guard at how easily it fell from her lips. ellie instantly panicked at the shocked expression on your face. she immediately scooted away and began apologizing. “i’m sorry… i-i don’t even know why i asked.”
“ellie,” you tried to calm her down as she began frantically searching for a way to ease the situation. you couldn’t watch her make a mess of herself over something you wanted her so badly to do.
“ellie.” you reached out and grabbed her face softly with one hand while the other came to rest on her knee. her face fell from concern to an unreadable expression. a mix between content and confusion.
you leaned in slowly, watching as her eyes quickly looked all over your face, trying to understand if this was real life or just a figment of her intoxicated imagination.
your nose bumped against hers, making you look into her eyes. “can i kiss you?” you exhaled, anxiously awaiting her reply. “please…” she breathed before you placed your lips softly against hers.
there was hardly any movement aside from both of your chests expanding and shrinking from letting go of held breaths and breathing in bigger and better ones as your lips connected. it was soft and short, ending before either of you could make another move.
“i really like you, ellie,” you confessed as your lips parted with a soft smack. “i’ve never liked someone like this before.” you continued, searching her eyes for a reply that she failed to give.
it’s like a switch flipped at your words. ellie reached up to hold the back of your head with her free hand, letting out a quick “thank god” before smashing her lips against yours.
this time, the kiss was heavy and felt less like a trial and more like a confession. her lips moved eagerly against yours, but they were not messy in the slightest. your hand pushed further up her cheek, leaving your thumb to brush against the freckles that littered her skin as the rest of your fingers knotted into her soft strands.
her hand, which lay beneath yours, maneuvered so that your fingers were interlocked tightly, squeezing ever so slightly to try and add emphasis to her feelings towards you.
you squeezed back, making her smile against your lips before tilting her head to kiss you deeper than before.
“what the fuck?” a deep voice pulled you and ellie apart quickly, making you stand up and face the group of people who now looked at you and ellie with mixed faces. most were shocked, while others held a look of disgust, especially the one in the front, which belonged to none other than your most recent ex-boyfriend.
“oh, so we broke up, and now you’re gay?” he gestures his arm out to ellie, who now stands behind you. more people flocked towards the commotion, making you and ellie the center of attention.
“that’s not…” you tried to argue, but you couldn’t think of something to say that could ease the situation. “what? no wonder you were always such a tease,” he began, walking and stalking towards you. his face grew increasingly red with anger.
“always leading me on and leaving me to fix my shit myself because you wanted to get with a homo? you wanna fuck her like a fucking fa-“ his words were cut off as ellie swung at his chiseled face, making you jump and cover your mouth to avoid screaming.
he stumbled at ellie’s force and grabbed his cheek, which began to turn pink with irritation from ellie’s blow. “oh wow, now you have your little girlfriend to defend you.” he laughed darkly as he looked between you and ellie with pure venom in his gaze.
before ellie or you could form a rebuttal, he swung at her face, resulting in an eruption of “oohs” from the crowd of people observing all around.
“ellie!” you screamed, attempting to help her as an arm wrapped around your shoulders, restricting you. your head turned to reveal dina behind you, preventing your attempted move.
“what are you doing?” you yelled at her as your ex and ellie began hitting each other over and over.
“don’t, just don’t. let’s get out of here.” she spoke into your ear as you watched and pulled on her arms, which held you firmly.
“ellie stop! please stop! someone make it stop!” you continued to scream as you watched the fight increase in severity as the seconds went by.
you didn’t want to watch, but you couldn’t look away. with every swing he made, ellie made three, which filled you with some sort of relief before he did just as many hits back.
you clawed at dina’s arms, not caring if you hurt her, as you watched ellie get hurt by someone you claimed to even like. it made you want to puke.
“you think you can take her from me?” your ex growled as he swung at ellie, which she thankfully dodged. she laughed, wiping her bloodied knuckles on her white undershirt. “didn’t have to take what was already mine.” she sneered back, punching him once more directly in the nose.
you couldn’t help but gasp at her words. if it were any other situation, you would feel flattered, but in the moment, all you felt was fear. that had to have struck a nerve.
“you think you’re so funny, huh?” he muttered as blood trickled from his nose and into his mouth, painting his teeth red. “i mean, she sure thinks so.” ellie tried to bite back the nasty comment, but she was so completely enraged that he could even think to speak of you the way he did.
more shouts and whistles erupted from the crowd, ultimately showing their approval of ellie’s comment, even if they didn’t side with her entirely or even at all.
this just fueled his anger more, making him push ellie to the floor and punch her with much more force than he originally had. the sight made you grow silent in fear. you wanted to scream, but the pure shock in your veins rendered you mute.
your fight against dina’s arms only grew as you watched ellie face and body get repeatedly hit. “stop, please fucking stop.” you finally yelled as more and more people cheered and hollered without a care.
with one last tug, you finally freed yourself from dina’s grip and lurched towards the boy who continued to swing on ellie. you were never one with muscles, but some sort of strength took over you as you pulled his body off of ellie and into the wall.
you hit his stupid face over and over, so consumed with anger that you failed to notice dina rush to ellie’s side and pull her up. you couldn’t focus on anything but hurting this boy just as much as he had hurt you, and that included ellie.
you didn’t know how many hits you got or when the crowd began to disperse, but a firm grip on your waist removed you from the boy and planted you on the ground.
“come on, man, let’s get out of here!” a deep voice rang in your head, along with many other loud voices chanting to leave. your vision was blurry with tears, unable to make out any sort of movement, and all you could hear was a dull ring muffling the multitude of shouting voices.
all you felt were the cool tiles on the kitchen floor beneath your thighs and the hard wall behind your head before you felt a familiar hand grab your face.
“y/n are you okay? god, please tell me you’re okay.” ellie’s voice fell into your ears clearly, her soft thumb coming up to wipe the tears that began to spill from your eyes. you couldn’t form any words; you just reached out to grab her as tightly as you could.
feeling her skin on yours felt like a breath of fresh air, drowning out all your doubts knowing she was here and with you.
“i’m so sorry. i’m so fucking sorry.” you cried into her shirt, bunching some of her flannel into your bloody fist as you clawed at her back while you sobbed. “it’s not your fault.” ellie pulled your face back to look at you.
with your eyes finally coming into focus, you took in the multiple cuts and bruises scattered across her pretty face. her lip had a large gash on the side, along with her temple and cheek.
“don’t worry, he looks a whole lot worse.” she joked, trying to ease your visible worry. you laughed at her ability to joke at a time like this.
she wasn’t far off when she said you thought she was funny…
you grazed her wounds softly, not wanting to hurt her even more than she already was. "well, that’s good. i’d have to chase after him again if he weren’t,” you teased, your hand coming down to interlock with hers, which rested on your thigh.
you sat in silence, not knowing what to say. your house sounded a lot quieter; the only sound were voices coming in from outside and the humming of cars driving off.
“didn’t know you had that strength in you, pretty girl. where was all that when we were helping joel move boxes huh?” ellie joked yet again, making you roll your eyes.
“shut up.” you groaned before kissing her, doing your best to not hurt the cut on her lip. she kissed you back as if the cut were nonexistent, grabbing your waist under your battered shirt to pull you closer to her.
your knees came to rest on either side of one of her legs, letting yourself hover above her as you disconnected your lips from hers. this time, she just looked at you, waiting for you to speak.
“so… should we make his words come true?” you questioned her, toying with one of the buttons on her shirt. ellie looked at you quizzically, unsure of what you were implying.
you just grabbed her face for what felt like the thousandth time and kissed her quickly. “you’re so fucking cute.” you giggled at her, still confused. she grabbed your wrist, “trying” to pull your hands off her face.
“do you want to be my girlfriend?” you asked, ridded of any anxieties or doubts. she instantly erupted into giggles, pulling you into her and hugging you as tight as she could without bothering her hurt side.
“to think i had this whole plan to ask you out, and here you are asking me if i want to be your girlfriend after i just fought for your love.” ellie joked, rubbing your sides firmly as you pulled away and looked at her with nothing but shock.
“a plan? now you have to tell me, els.” you tilted your head to peer at her through squinted lids. she just shook her head and grazed one of her hands up your back to rest behind your head and rake through your hair.
“maybe tomorrow..." she drawled before connecting your lips once again, a content sigh leaving both of your lips in satisfaction.
“yeah, the explanation can wait.” you breathed, locking your lips with hers again.

"Im so sorry to bother you at home"
Starring: Nishinoya Yuu
Sypnosis: He has been trying to hit on you subtly for quite a few time, but he has grown a little more determinate now.
Request: Hello! Could you please write a Nishinoya x female reader where she’s seen by everyone as a serious, menacing person, when in reality she’s really just socially awkward and dense? Nishinoya tries hitting on her doing the usual tricks like flowers and bears and pick up lines but she’s just confused. Finally he just becomes more direct with her and honest and slowly she falls for him too? I’m sorry if it’s a bit too detailed and it’s okay if you don’t do this haha it’s been at the back of my head for a while
A/N: This one was so cute to write!, i tried to be really quick making this but the inspiration came to me like a thunder and here we are. Remember i use she/her in this fic.
Tumblr media
Nishinoya Yuu. The thunder of the Karasuno team, always so energetic and kind, oftenly called delusional by his feelings towards Kiyoko, little did they know that it wasent a crush, he admired her and by that her personality and how she acted; But he liked you, he admired you and wordshipped the very floor you stepped on.
His tries were almost pathetic, sure he could tell Kiyoko anything btu it was different when it was you, he shacked and mumbled like a little kid inlove everytime he crossed any words with you. Everyone could tell but some way you didnt; Not even the flowers he gave you, little gifts he made for you with his own hands (which were a cute detail since he isnt pretty good with manualities) But from time to time his friends started to see that there was no response tho this little acts.
"She doesn't like you and she's acting like that to decline your feelings nicely" He heard one of them said, his heart ached but then Hinata spoke answering to the previous person, his words were filled with determination and his obvious spark that always bringed hope to everyone. "And what if she isnt?, she could see it was a friendly gesture. Nishinoya haven't talked about his feelings openly to her"
Hinata had a point, Sugawara and Daichi agreed, yes Nishinoya and his friends could think those hints were obvious enough to tell that he was completely head over heels inlove with you. But they know him as a friend and since pretty long time comparing to you; They weren't you and that meant they didnt feel or thinked like you.
He planned his confession, would you like something big? the whole school knowing?, No, it will make you agree by social pressure, Did you liked him enough to say 'Yes' without much people knowing? Oh God.
Tumblr media
It was 6PM on a friday. He can remember it vividly, his steps were hard on the floor and his fingers were digging into his shirt and on the little box he held, his palms sweated and his face was red; He knocked at your door. After a few minutes you opened the door.
"Hey, im so sorry to bother you at home" he started as he saw you, his face blushed and his cologne was subtle as always. "I know that this might be hard but... I dont know what to say" he started panicking.
"I like you a lot" He finally stated after a sigh, his gaze fixated on the floor, the blush on his cheeks made him look heated, his breathing was heavy and his mind was longing and pleading for an answer.
"Are you being serious?" You spoke, a hidden tint of amusement in your voice, his feeling were glowing as he answered "Of course i am, why wouldnt i? i like you so much" He said as he took another step, reflecting his mind and then doing the opposite and stepping back, he didnt wanted to make the situation awkard, he just wanted to finally be totally sincere with you.
little did he know you liked him aswell, but oh lord he is the happiest man alive.
Tumblr media
"Hey, i bringed this for you too" He said as he smiled at you, more confident and smug after your answer, handing you a little figure you have been longing to have since quite a few time. He buyed it for you since the first day you mentioned it but he decided to wait untill the ocation was perfect, and sure it was.

Out of Line
Pairing: Daichi Sawamura x Female!Reader
Word Count: 3.3k words
Warnings: Maybe one or two cuss words, mentions of violence(a mere punch)
A/N: This is my first attempt at writing for this fandom and I went and read up on as much as I could for this character as well, so if he is a bit OOC, please forgive me, in due time, I shall become accustomed to the characters. But I do hope you enjoy reading this!❤️
Being proud of her team was one thing, but to be a part of the team was a whole different story. They had made her feel involved and that her input was important, making her develop a deep connection with each of the players, often times going to the extra length to try and help them with tips or advice she had heard or learnt having previously been a player as well before she accepted the position to become part of their managers, which allowed her to provide more assistance if one of them ever needed it.
Unfortunately today would be the day it came in handy.
Daichi Sawamura had been the sole motivator to why she had agreed to become a part of their team's managers when the position was offered to her.
The two had been friends for a few months after she had transferred to the team and with him being the first one to greet her and make her feel involved, often helping her with anything he could or if she asked. Though as the weeks passed, he found himself developing a strong liking for her, how she behaved with and around his teammates, how her personality shined brightly like the sun, never once did he see her lose her patience or temper with anyone, inside or outside the team, even when some of them got a bit rowdy, she had always kept a reassuring presence that allowed the other members, and Daichi, to feel comfortable around her, he had even been surprised when Tsukishima started talking casually to her, or rather, as casual as he could be.
The competition they had been preparing for was due to put stress on them, with many becoming burnt out quickly and receiving aches and pains from how much they had been practicing. Daichi could also feel the strain that had been building in his shoulders, often making him hiss or wince when he played and though he didn’t catch it as clearly, he could feel that (Y/N) had been paying special attention to him, making sure he stayed hydrated and softly asking him to rest when she saw that it was taking its toll, even sometimes gently massaging his shoulders to try and alleviate any tension or pain. Something most of his teammates teased him about, claiming that only he ever got physical reassurance from her which would be met with him telling them that she was only being helpful, but what could he say to his teammates when he actually enjoyed bathing in her presence? How his heart would skip a beat or start beating quicker whenever she called his name or cheered him on.
Sugawara had caught onto his responses to her, along with Asahi, attempting to encourage him to tell her how he felt as the constant looming he did had started becoming noticeable. However, Daichi had started creating scenarios of how he could confess when he wasn’t worrying about her telling him that she’d like to remain friends, two contrasting thoughts creating a war inside his head, he knew that she showed him extra attention, as much as she thought she was being subtle he did catch onto how she’d keep her hands on his shoulders long after she had gotten the knots out, or how she had talked to him about her past and goals, what she kept dear to her she shared with him when his other teammates weren’t around.
The competition had been going extremely well, with Karasuno scoring more points that would win them a victory that they could take home. Kiyoko had asked (Y/N) if she could assist her with grabbing some towels and bottles of water for when they had finished greeting the opposing team after the audience had left and out of respect, the teams would say their ‘thanks’ and ‘good game’, however as (Y/N) and Kiyoko had packed the last of the things they needed and were ready to walk back to the court, Nishinoya and Tanaka had barged through the doors, out of breath and in clear shock.
“Nishinoya? Tanaka? What’s going on?” Kiyoko asked concerningly as she and (Y/N) held the boxes in their arms.
“We need you to come quickly.” Nishinoya had said, his voice sounded distressed,
“What’s going on?” (Y/N) asked as Tanaka helped her with carrying the box and Nishinoya attempted to hurry them up, making the two women follow them back to the courts in their panicked states.
“One of the players from the other team got a bit handsy with Daichi,” Nishinoya explained, his quick footsteps echoing off the hallway walls and increasing their concerned states, especially for (Y/N) who was aware that Daichi would never say anything petty or attempt to one up everybody, but then again ‘handsy’ could mean many things.
However, she understood once they had gotten back to the court what Nishinoya had meant, (Y/N) quickly grabbed a towel out from the box Tanaka had been holding before he placed it down on one of the benchers, running to where a few of Daichi’s teammates had been next to him as he had his hand covering his nose and mouth. 
Sugawara had moved to the side when he saw her approaching, “What happened?” She asked as she handed Daichi the towel, the captain taking it from her as he brought his hand away, allowing her to see the small trickle of blood running down from his one nostril before he wiped it with the towel, thanking her as he placed it back to his nose to prevent it from leaking any more other than the pain radiating from around his nose area which would be showing come the next morning in blue and purple.
“Let’s just say that one of the other team's players wasn’t too keen about losing.” Azumane replied to her, making her turn her head towards where the other team's manager had been lecturing them before bringing her attention back to Daichi. 
“It all happened quickly which is why we sent Nishinoya and Tanaka to go call you and Kiyoko, one minute he was shaking hands with the guy and the next the guy was throwing hands.” Sugawara explained as Kageyama and Hinata were being restrained by Tsukishima and Yamaguchi, or as well as they could restrain them as they were also willing to let them go and throw back a punch but would rather spare themselves the same lecture.
(Y/N) stayed close to them as the other three came around, Kiyoko and Tanaka passing out what was in the boxes as their team managed to stay sort of calm, Kiyoko handing Daichi a bottle and him accepting it but making no move to open it before he was handing it back to (Y/N).
“Nuh uh, come on, Daichi, at least take two sips and I’ll accept that. I will not have you fainting with a bleeding nose.” (Y/N) stated, attempting to make her tone sound gentle but stern as to let him know that he had no way to back out, though what she didn’t see was the small smile that appeared on his face behind the towel before he was removing it and taking the bottle that she had now opened to quench his thirst as she gently placed her hand on his shoulder.
“That is going to leave a nice shiner tomorrow.” Nishinoya indicated, earning a smack from Tanaka as Daichi furrowed his eyebrows as his eyes turned towards the shorter player, “I mean, it won’t make you look any different-” He attempted to fix his mistake, not aware that he had somehow made it worse by continuing.
“And by tomorrow, we all would have to run fifty laps around the school for that comment.” Tsukishima commented sarcastically as he watched Nishinoya try to reexplain what he had meant, unknowingly further increasing Daichi’s oncoming headache from the amount of force that had been applied to his nose.
“It’s alright, Nishinoya. Don’t worry, your captain will be back to normal as soon as we get him an ice pack.” (Y/N) stated as Asahi helped him to stand back on his feet while his other hand kept the towel to his face.
“Yeah and maybe a smooch for good luck.” Hinata declared, making Kageyama smack the back of his head, “What? That’s what parents say, if you kiss it, it heals faster.” He continued, unaware that Daichi was ready to set out a tense workout routine after this the swelling went down and the pinkness in his cheeks also vanished, but upon looking towards (Y/N)’s wide eyes as Kiyoko handed her an ice pack that she had retrieved from their med kit.
“Take this and apply it to where it feels swollen or painful.” (Y/N) said as her flustered state washed away a bit and she returned to her usual bubbly self. Daichi gently took the ice pack from her as he wiped away the few remaining trinkles of blood before he was putting the pack near his nose.
“I think this has been enough excitement for one day, let’s head to the locker rooms and get our stuff.” Daichi told his team, cringing at how nasally his voice sounded but received nods in response as none of them wanted to remain there for any longer than what they had to.
Before he could make any movement forwards, Daichi heard his name being called, making his team also turn their heads to who had called it, no surprise it being the manager of the opposite team which made Daichi stand up straight and motioned for his team to continue walking to the locker rooms, aside from Sugawara, Azumane, Kiyoko and (Y/N) but Nishinoya and Tanaka staying close to the doors to also watch the scene.
“I am terribly sorry for the behaviour, never would I condone this sort of action.” The older male expressed while the said teammate stood next to him with his arms crossed over his chest and a scowl painting his face, “But I think an apology is in order from my player.”
The scowl never left the other player’s face, even as he delivered what appeared to be a half-assed apology, but Daichi had waved it off, being able to shake the kid’s hand properly before he was taking it back and the manager was moving away, but it seemed that the kid hadn’t been finished, “Having a star player on the team who only sits around because of a little ankle injury.”
Now it had been the last straw, it had been one thing to insult him to his face but bringing his team members into it was a whole different story, the comment making Daichi freeze in his place when he felt (Y/N) flinch from under his arm that had been around her shoulders, making his turn around while still holding the ice pack to his face, “I’m sorry?”
“That wasn’t towards you, don’t worry.” The kid said as he motioned his head towards (Y/N) who still had her back turned towards them with Kiyoko placing her hand onto her shoulder.
It had been a touchy subject for her, one that she had let Daichi know of when he tried encouraging her to play for the team or at least try out. Through teary eyes she had explained that in her previous team she was a star player but due to a severe ankle injury she was told she wouldn’t be handling the ball anymore, she had told him that she had been heartbroken over it and that she had felt utterly useless about it, which is why she had been so happy and ecstatic when the position was offered to her. Now for someone to be using it as a hateful comment was something he wouldn’t be allowed to pass, at least that was until she turned around.
“Let’s get one thing straight here.” (Y/N) had said as she made eye contact with the younger player, “You don’t get to assault one of my players, then make a half-assed ‘sorry’ and then continue to do it. If you want a challenge so badly, I can arrange with your captain that it’s just you against Karasuno and then you can come tell us about what makes you better, deal?” (Y/N) continued, making the kids eyes widen and for embarrassment to wash over him as his team witnessed the ordeal as (Y/N) had made herself slightly louder when speaking to him.
Unbeknownst to her, Kiyoko had to wave her hand in front of Daichi’s face to bring him back down to earth. After stating her part, (Y/N) turned around and moved towards the doors, holding it open as Daichi and Kiyoko made their way through.
“Wow… I never would’ve thought we’d see this side of you.” Kiyoko stated as the three of them walked to the locker room. As they arrived, (Y/N) and Kiyoko stood outside, saying that they’d wait for everyone to be finished before they left, but once Daichi entered the room, he had all of his team's eyes on him.
“What?” He asked, confused as some of his teammates had knowing smiles and others were just staring at him.
“Never knew she could be defensive.” Kageyama spoke, allowing Daichi to catch up with what had been the main topic of the subject now.
“She was merely acting in a way that was appropriate as a member of the team.” Daichi said as he moved to his bag, retrieving his jacket and slipping it onto his back.
“Yeah, sure, but what manager uses the term ‘my team’ so defensively?” Nishinoya asked, picking up his own stuff as everyone was also in the process of doing after packing away their gear.
“It could’ve just been a slip up and a spur of the moment thing.” Daichi said, trying to resolve the situation while keeping it professional, “Any team member would’ve done the same thing.”
“When are you going to confess to her?” Tsukishima asked, the question making the captain choke on the water he had been drinking resulting in a coughing fit that had him turning his head towards the blond with a confused expression that he tried to hide.
“Not the time or place, 'Tsuki.” Hinata stated, making Tsukishima’s eyes turn towards him.
“Coming from the one who had suggested them kissing earlier.” He stated, making Tanaka burst into laughter while the others started throwing in comments back and forth which made Daichi blink his eyes as he rubbed his other hand over his face, wondering what the ride home was going to be like.
“What do you think is taking them so long?” (Y/N) asked as she paced back and forth in front of the bus doors, “Surely it doesn’t take them forty minutes to collect all of their gear, right? Unless they forgot something?” She said, though more to herself than expecting an answer from Kiyoko.
“I’m sure they have a good reason-” As she had been just about to continue, the loud banging from the doors opening and Hinata running into the bus, followed by Kageyama going on a rant about how he would have to watch the back of his head, making (Y/N) and Kiyoko look at each other in confusion before the rest of the team was exiting the doors.
The ride home had been surprisingly quiet, well as quiet as the situation was after Daichi had a stern talking with all of them before they got into the bus, but now he had been on the receiving end of it as they had all planned out how they were going to make him sit next to (Y/N), which they accomplished and she was none the wiser. Now Daichi sat next to her, the ice pack long since melted and his nose free of bleeding, allowing him to breathe properly but not allowing (Y/N) a moment of rest as she tried using disinfecting wipes to gently use around the area that had begun to bruise.
“That’s going to leave a mark, but with good attendance to it, it should heal up within a week or so, Daichi.” She claimed as she gently wiped away the dried blood, “Is it painful?” She asked concerningly, watching as his half closed eyes turned to her.
“Just feels like it’s blocked a bit and is only painful if I press on it.” He explained as he watched her sigh before she threw away the wipe into a small plastic bag near her.
She turned back towards him, staring into his half closed eyes, “What do you think provoked him to do that?” (Y/N) asked him absentmindedly, the thought had been racing through her mind, the kid had no reason to resort to violence and she knew Daichi never provoked anyone unless absolutely necessary, which was where the confusion lied.
Her question made him shrug his shoulders, “Could’ve been many reasons.” He stated as he brought his hand up to softly caress her cheek, her expression turning into one of shock at his actions, “thank you.”
“For what, Daichi?” She asked as she had been confused about where he was coming from.
“For looking after the team.” He said shortly, his thumb never leaving her as his hand stayed rooted to gentle caressing.
“How hard did he hit you?” She asked, making Daichi softly chuckle as he removed his hand back to his side as she smiled at him, “I enjoy working with all of you and them team means a lot to me, especially after I thought that I’d never step foot on a volleyball court ever again, which is why I should actually be thanking you, Daichi.”
He smiled after hearing her words, turning his head back towards her, “Do you perhaps want to grab a coffee sometime? Like not immediately as we get back but when you’re free.” He inquired, watching as her eyes slightly widened as well as her smile.
“Is this you asking me out?” (Y/N) asked as she saw him nod or what looked like a nod with what little space he could work with while not wincing.
“I’d love to. But how’s that going to affect your team?” She asked not wanting to give special attention to just Daichi but also so that his team wouldn't feel left out. But before he could answer and tell her that they were all alright with it, a voice from the seat in front of them spoke up as he turned around in his seat.
“It doesn’t affect us in any way as long as you guys don’t get all lovey dovey on the court.” Tsukishima stated bluntly.
“And now he doesn’t have to sit while staring at you from across the court.” Nishinoya chirped in.
“We’re so happy to see you finally asked.” Sugawara added, patting Daichi on his back from behind him.
Meanwhile Daichi felt the tinge warmth in his face after they had seated themselves back down, allowing him to sigh as he closed his eyes but opened them quickly when he felt soft lips being pressed to the side of his nose, “I hear it’s supposed to heal faster if you kiss it better, and we need you for next week’s training session.”
“I think you missed a spot.” He said as his finger touched his lip, making (Y/N) softly chuckle as she pressed her lips against his, his hand moving over hers on his knee and intertwining them as the two got lost in their own world.
“We’re not even on court and already they’re starting.” Tsukishima stated, crossing his arms while the two pulled away from each other, both now smiling.

TANAKA RYUNOSUKE X FEMALE!READER !
Genre: Angst
Notes: OKAY SO! i was thinking about Tanaka for a while now since I literally love him!! but!! i had the worst day today :( so why can't I share my pain :) This is a short drabble I thought of on the spot and they're will be a lot of timeskips!!
Jealousy~
"Oi! Tanaka!" You called, and the boy you called over, turned his shaved head and his gray eyes stared back at you. "Oh! hey y/n!" Tanaka Ryunosuke, your boyfriend, announced. You sped over to him with open arms, which he did also. You two hugged for a minute before you let go and kissed his cheek. You could see that he was in heaven in the way that his face turned red and his ears turned pink You giggled at his reaction before bidding your goodbyes to him before you got late for class.
Unfortunately, you didn't see him until break time, which made you sad, but you knew that you'd see him at break… fangirling at Kiyoko Shimizu, Your best friend.
No matter how many times Kiyoko and Tanaka assured you that they didn't like each other, you still felt jealous. Tanaka never complimented you like the way he does to Kiyoko. You brushed it off like a speck of dirt on your shoulder.
You and Tanaka were second years, meanwhile, Kiyoko was a third year, meaning that she'd graduate tomorrow, and when she did, you hoped that Tanaka would stop talking about her. And it's not like you hate Kiyoko, she's your best friend, and you love her, but having to hear her in every conversation Tanaka has with you and other people. Boasting of how she's such a beauty, that she looks pretty every day, that she's an angel.
But even when she did graduate, he would not shut up about her. "Tanaka, you wanna study at the library together after school?" "Oh, sure babe! can we invite Kiyoko?" He asked, and you looked at him, eye twitching, and left. He looked at you dumbfoundedly before shaking his head and heading to his next class.
After a few months, you get the courage to call a confident woman your so-called boyfriend is in love with.
"Hello? This is Kiyoko Shimizu speaking." "Kiyoko? It's Y/n,," "Y/n? I haven't heard from you in this ages, how are you?" "I'm fine, I was just wondering, I know I asked you already but, do you..like Tanaka?" The other line was silent for a minute. "i.." The line responded, but at last, the voice sounded hesitant, unsure of their answer. "He likes you back, by the way." Your voice shook, your eyes holding back tears, trying not to make it obvious that you were going to start crying. A small, soft gasp interrupted the hard tension. After a few seconds of processing, she replied to you with an answer
"Yes, I do like him, he confessed to me a few days ago." Now it was your turn to gasp. You knew he liked her but didn't know that he confessed to her. And with that, you pressed the end call button and broke down. You fell back onto your bed and sobbed and stayed in your bed for the rest of the day. Tanaka sent a few text messages here and there saying that he's worried about why you're not replying like you always do.
Your heart ached, and your friends and family began to get worried for you. He was always on your mind, and that's why a salty small tear slipped out of your eyes and slid down your face.
Collage came around and you and Tanaka, unfortunately, broke up. It's been a while since you two have seen each other. He and Kiyoko got together, and their life was perfect! or so they thought.
They graduated and he was ultimately happy. He loves Kiyoko, and he's almost certain that she loves him back.
So why does his hand shakes, his heart sink, his mouth agape, and his mind go blank when he finally sees you, kissing Oikawa?

Tumblr media
as weird as it sounded, you loved spending valentine’s day at the office. it felt like elementary school where you’d share little treats with your classmates. you were notorious for bringing in a box of valentine’s themed candy back in the day, and you lived up to that reputation even now. this year, it was valentine’s fun dip, your favorite.
you’ve spent valentine’s day as an engaged woman for quite a few years now, but you felt this year would be different now that you were less than four months away from your wedding. however, you and ryo promised each other not to go too crazy when it came to gifts. you were trying to save up as much money as possible before your big day. still, you hoped he would put in some effort.
you watched a delivery man enter the office with a big bouquet of red roses. could they be for you? you sure hoped so. you had never received such a bouquet like this before.
the delivery man placed the bouquet on top of your desk. you stand up and read the envelope that came with the bouquet to see who it’s for—hoping it’s for you—but alas, it’s for someone else.
“yachi.” you sigh. it shouldn’t be a surprise, but you couldn’t help but feel some sort of disappointment. still, you had all day to get a gift. you just had to be patient, although that will be a difficult task for you. you don’t even know how you’ve been so patient just for a simple wedding date.
yachi stood from her desk to receive her roses, practically skipping over as she was filled with joy. you look over to see a smile on yamaguchi’s face as he watched her pick up the bouquet, and you could immediately assume they were from him.
“wow, yachi. that bouquet is bigger than your head.” hinata said in amazement.
“i know!” yachi exclaimed. “quick, grab the card and read it out for me.”
“okay…” hinata obeyed, plucking the envelope out of the array of roses and opening up the card. he quickly read it over in his head before reading it out loud. “happy valentine’s day, buttercup. love, yamaguchi.”
“aw, yams!” she cooed. yamaguchi’s cheeks quickly turned pink. “you’re the sweetest.”
you groan as yachi ran over to yamaguchi and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek before returning to her desk. they were adorable, you’d give them that, but man. you were already growing impatient.
“hey, y/n. why the sour face?” ukai asked you as he walked up to your desk. were you giving away your bitterness just by the look on your face? no, maybe you just had RSF or something. resting sour face is a thing, right?
“what?” you jump and place your hand over your heart. you really hoped no one else noticed anything off with you. “nothing, nothing. i’m fine.”
“well, i’m heading to tokyo for that meeting soon.” ukai said. right, the meeting. you remembered informing him a couple weeks ago about a meeting in tokyo with other branch managers and the new CFO of the company. you sure hoped he wouldn’t mess it all up. “want any touristy merch? keychain? t-shirt you’ll never let see the light of day?”
“no, i’m good.” you reply. what you really wanted was for ryo to blow you away with a valentine’s gift already.
“ugh, lame.” ukai rolled his eyes. “you want anything, tsukki? i bet they have weird dinosaur crap or something.”
“i’d prefer it if you didn’t do anything stupid in front of the new CFO.” tsukishima said. you were sure everyone was hoping for that.
“what? of course i’m not gonna do anything stupid.” ukai scoffed. “what do you think i am, an idiot?”
“yes, yes i do.” tsukishima deadpanned.
“well, no dinosaur crap for you.” ukai huffed like a child. “tanaka, you’re in charge.”
oh god, this was a match made in hell. why ukai decided to make a decision so randomly like that, you didn’t know, but he could’ve picked anyone else in the office and no one would’ve had a problem with it.
“woah, why him? why not me or suga?” daichi protested. “i’ve proven to be a good leader! i won you that stupid volleyball match with the warehouse guys! suga even took a volleyball to the face thanks to y/n’s fiancé!”
“woah, let’s not drag me into this—” suga began to say. he didn’t want to have to think about that again, nor did he want any extra responsibilities today. suga just wanted a relaxing day.
funny enough, ukai almost forgot about that happening. it felt so long ago, but it only happened in the fall. maybe he should reconsider his choices. “oh yeah… i change my mind. daichi, you’re in charge now.”
“god dammit!” tanaka whined. at least he had his fifteen seconds of glory.
“see ya, bozos!” ukai cackled on his way out.
as soon as the door shut behind him, you all let out a sigh of relief. maybe today wouldn’t so bad without ukai around.
•••
“i’m pretty glad ukai’s not here, actually.” suga confessed without hesitation. you sat next to him, hurriedly nodding in agreement.
“we were all thinking it.” you add on to suga’s statement.
“yeah, i don’t have to worry about him on my back over my love life on a day all about love.” he chuckled. maybe he shouldn’t have said that out loud, but ukai’s absence was a massive relief and breath of fresh air.
“why would he be on your back?” you furrow your eyebrows.
crap. “oh, you know… he’s ukai. he’s always on our backs.”
“yeah, you’re right.” you shrug.
suga was thankful you brushed off any suspicions. that was definitely a close one, especially given recent events.
•••
everyone went on with their day as normal, although some found it odd they weren’t being bombarded or borderline harassed by ukai for once. was it opposite day? no, it was valentine’s day. a weird one, it seemed.
after grabbing a cup of coffee, tanaka returned to his desk. a mysterious package sat next to his keyboard, which wasn’t there before. he looked at the plain, suspicious box in confusion, tilting his head as he tried making sense of it all.
“suga, what’s this?” tanaka questioned, hoping suga would have an answer.
“i don’t know.” he shrugged, which wasn’t the answer tanaka wanted to hear. “it’s yours, not mine.”
“but who put it here?” tanaka asked.
“it was already there when i sat down. just open it and see what’s up.” suga said.
“fine…” tanaka groaned before he reached for scissors and fumbled with opening the box. it took a minute, but he managed to get the job done. inside the box was a card, underneath an unknown item covered in tissue paper. who knows what it could possibly be?
“happy valentine’s day. love, your secret admirer—” tanaka’s jaw dropped to the floor. “holy F*CK! a secret admirer?!”
“i’m not even gonna scold you on censoring yourself.” suga rolled his eyes. he’s had his fair share of dropping bombs on camera too, he surely wasn’t innocent either.
“my word… now i gotta see what’s inside.” tanaka ripped away the tissue paper and picked up a bobble head that resembled him. he instantly loved it upon first sight, but if only tanaka knew who gifted it to him. “it's me… i'm the bobble head. nice!”
from afar, a soft grin crept up on kiyoko’s face, which went unnoticed by everyone in the office. could it be?
•••
“someone in this office has the hots for me and all i know is that it better not be tsukishima.” tanaka said as he stared down the camera. “i mean, i get it, i’m a catch! but why be anonymous with your love? secret admirer, show yourself!”
it was hilarious how tanaka was blind to the only true possibility to the identity of his secret admirer, but the documentary crew would let him take the time to figure it out while filming some television gold in the process.
•••
rather than doing work, nishinoya decided to use his time at the office to make plans for later. asahi was in on nishinoya’s plans, only because he begged him to, allowing his much smaller coworker to do all the talking, starting with suga and tanaka.
“hey, suga.” nishinoya leaned against suga’s desk. “you doin’ anything for valentine’s day?”
suga almost wanted to laugh maniacally. of course, he wasn’t doing anything today. he was pathetically single and had no eyes for other women. saeko was nice, but she was only friend material in suga’s eyes. at least he gained a friend out of that mess from the booze cruise, but tonight? suga planned to be all alone.
“heh, no.” he forced a subtle laugh, holding back on making a mockery out of his pathetic love life. “definitely not.”
“well, me and asahi are going on a bar crawl later. you’re definitely welcome to join.” nishinoya said.
a bar crawl? it didn’t sound like a terrible idea, but suga was worried about who would be attending. “i sure hope hinata isn’t invited. dude cannot handle his alcohol.”
“yeah, i bet kageyama will put a stop to that.” nishinoya chuckled. he didn’t even want to attempt to invite them, really. “so, you in?”
“um…” suga looked over at you. you’re oblivious to his stare as you’re on the phone with someone. of course he stood no chance, so suga quickly looked away to answer nishinoya. “yeah, i’m in.”
“sick! i’ll text you the details.” nishinoya replied. “tanaka, you know you’re always welcome.”
“i don’t know, noya. i might be occupied with a special someone tonight.” tanaka said as he leaned back against his chair, his arms behind his head. totally not for the purpose of showing off his biceps.
“oh, really? with who?” nishinoya questioned.
“oh, boy…” suga groaned. the poor guy had been dealing with tanaka over the moon thanks to this whole secret admirer thing all day so far. if there were a drinking game to take a shot every time tanaka mentioned his secret admirer, suga would be dead by alcohol poisoning already.
“my secret admirer.” tanaka smirked. if only suga had a shot to down right now.
“yeah, okay.” nishinoya scoffed, walking away from what has now become a foolish conversation.
tanaka stood from his desk defiantly, slamming his hands down as he yelled at nishinoya. “my secret admirer is real and i’m going to figure out who it is by the end of the day!”
everyone looked up to watch tanaka’s random outburst, rolling their eyes before getting back to work. suga snickered as a result, receiving a glare from tanaka. as if that guy ever scared him anyway.
nishinoya walked over to kiyoko next, the sound of her name escaping his mouth catching the attention of tanaka. “hey, kiyoko. you doing anything later?”
“um, actually i might have other plans…” she replied timidly.
“okay, that’s cool. have fun.” he said, finding nothing about her response to be suspicious. she was a pretty girl, why wouldn’t she have plans?
however, a light bulb lit up above tanaka’s head. could it really be the woman of his dreams who sent him the mystery package? nah, tanaka figured he was just reaching for the stars. there was just no way.
moments later, a different delivery man walked in with an arrangement of various flowers. just what you needed to see again. it was easy to figure out who they were for, and the card had proven your guess right.
“yachi, guess what?” you call out for her, hiding your jealousy.
“again?” yachi questioned, her puzzled face turning into an overjoyed one upon seeing a new bouquet just for her. “aw, yams, you didn’t have to!”
“rub it our faces, why don’t ya…” you grumble to yourself as yachi took her flowers back to her desk. did she really need another?
•••
“i’m okay! i’m okay, i swear.” you say, your eye twitching as you lie your ass off. “i’m totally not jealous about yachi getting two bouquets already and we’re only halfway through the day.”
“um, i think—”
“i’ll take just a single rose! i don’t care! something! anything!” you exclaim. you had truly gone mad, and the crew was better off leaving you be with your madness.
•••
later, tanaka found kiyoko in the break room making a cup of coffee. he didn’t even want coffee, he just wanted to do some investigating. tanaka just had to know if there was any chance of his dream girl harboring at least a little crush on him. he’d take anything at this point.
“hello, kiyoko.” he said. did that come off creepy? tanaka instantly regretted the delivery of his greeting, that’s for sure.
“hi, tanaka.” kiyoko replied. “i’ll be done in a second.”
“no, no. take your time.” tanaka insisted.
he watched intently as kiyoko made her coffee, grabbing vanilla flavored creamer—her favorite—from the fridge. tanaka always knew she poured it for exactly four seconds before putting in only one sugar packet. as kiyoko always said, the creamer was sweet enough.
“did you hear?” tanaka spoke up. kiyoko looked over to him to see what he had to say. she seemed to be as cool as a cucumber. “i got the best valentine’s day present ever and i don’t even know who it’s from.”
“yeah, we all heard you screaming about a secret admirer.” she giggled. “i’m glad you enjoyed your gift though.”
“oh, i did. i sure did.” tanaka replied with smirk. “did you get anything for valentine’s day?”
“just some candy.” kiyoko said. “y/n saved a blue fun dip specifically for me.”
damn, tanaka got stuck with red. but that wasn’t the point. he had to press the current matter further. “nothing special?”
“nope, i don’t usually get anything big for valentine’s day.” she shrugged.
“maybe this year will be different.” tanaka said, trying his best to come off a little flirty, but in a cool way. he wanted to be the man for her so bad.
“well, i sure hope it is.” kiyoko smiled, tanaka instantly blushing.
tanaka stood as kiyoko left the room with her mug. he didn’t really get any clues from that conversation, but it was worth it anyway because he at least he got to talk to her.
when he returned to his desk a minute later, a note appeared on his desk, just as mysterious as his gift from earlier. “suga? you know anything about this?”
“nope.” suga replied.
“typical.” tanaka scoffed as he picked up the note and read it aloud. “meet me in front of the warehouse at 5:30…”
woah. now things were really getting spicy in here. it was truly tanaka’s lucky day.
while tanaka tried analyzing the handwriting of the note over and over, a sudden commotion in the form of a delivery man struggling through the door with an oversized teddy bear on his back ruined tanaka’s concentration.
“god damn!” he exclaimed. tanaka definitely took the words right out of everyone’s mouths, yours included.
“yachi… hitoka.” the delivery man said out of breath, letting the teddy bear flop to the ground.
“uh… yachi?” you say to catch her attention. it shouldn’t even be a shock at this point. maybe you should blame tsukishima for forcing yamaguchi and yachi to confess their mutual crushes on each other months ago. all that teasing wasn’t enough, apparently.
“what—” yachi turned around. she immediately rushed out of her chair and leaped into the arms of the giant stuffed animal. “oh my god, i love it!”
you gently hit your head against the keyboard. no one seemed to notice your misery.
•••
“i officially give up on valentine’s day.” you let out a loud groan. the crew wondered if the sounds of your agony could be heard from the conference room. unfortunately, it did.
•••
the work day went back to normal, although yachi’s desk was littered with oversized gifts now. daichi couldn’t even see her face behind her computer screen anymore as her desk was crowded with bouquets and cards from yamaguchi. he truly outdid himself, even you couldn’t deny that. your jealousy still lingered, but at least yachi was happy.
without ukai around, you were glad to have a conversation with suga without the two of you being bothered. as he ate the fun dip you gave him earlier—only your most favorite people got the blue flavor—you recall a story from your junior high days.
“this kid gives him the twenty bucks and he actually snorts the pixy stix powder.” you say, detailing the end of your story.
“god, his poor nose…” suga cringed, although an idea popped into his mind. “hm, i wonder if i could snort this fun dip.”
“oh god, don’t!” you beg, grabbing his hand so he couldn’t do anything stupid. suga practically felt his heart jump out of his chest from the sudden contact, even if you didn’t seem to think anything of it. “i can’t lose you to silly candy.”
“it’s yummy though.” he grinned, swiftly moving on from the touch of your fingers grazing against his own, no matter how much he didn’t want to.
“yeah, on your tongue, not up your nose, dummy.” you scold him.
the two of you burst into laughter, the laugh fest interrupted by tanaka walking up to your desk. it seemed quite serious given his demeanor. “y/n. hi, how ya doing?”
“oh, hey—”
“good.” he cut you off. how rude. “listen, uh, may i speak with you... privately?”
“i’m kinda in the middle of a conversation…” you say, looking over to suga.
“y/n.” tanaka stared you down. he always did this when he was trying to get something he wanted. you knew him long enough to recognize the look.
“don’t give me that look, tanaka.” you cross your arms. “you don’t hold authority over me.”
“y/n, please just...” tanaka tilted his head, motioning for you to speak to him in another room. he really seemed desperate.
“do i have to?” you whine.
“love is on the line, dammit!” he yelled out, mayhaps a little too loud, but now you had no choice but to oblige.
“okay, okay!” you stand up from your chair. “let’s go then. sorry, suga.”
suga insisted it was no problem, but you still felt a little bad for cutting off your conversation like this. you and tanaka then walk out of the office and head into an empty hallway. if this was over nothing that important, you were going to be pissed.
“what is it that’s so urgent?” you ask tanaka.
“you’re a girl.” he said plainly. what a great start.
“well, unless my whole life has been a lie—”
“y/n. please.” tanaka interrupted, a pleading look in his eyes.
“sorry.” you say quietly.
“do you… recognize this handwriting at all?” he asked, taking out a card and folded note from his pocket. “it’s from my secret admirer.”
so that’s what this was about. you weren’t sure what tanaka wanted your help for so bad, but you figured it wouldn’t hurt to try and help him. “i guess i can take a look.”
tanaka handed you the notes and you inspect them carefully. it didn’t take you that long to figure out whose handwriting this belonged to. for you, it was clear as day.
“tanaka?”
“yeah?”
without saying another word, you smack him across the face, the sound of the slap echoing throughout the hallway. did your coworkers managed to hear that from inside the office? you sure hoped so. it was so satisfying, and the crew ate up the drama. this was peak television right here.
“what the heck was that for?!” tanaka yelled as his face now stung like hell. “i oughta file a complaint!”
“you’re such an idiot! it’s so obvious who wrote these!” you yelled back, forcing the notes back into his hands.
“well, who?!” he asked.
you purse your lips and cross your arms. you were going to play the petty game. “i’m not saying.”
“please, i’m begging!” tanaka exclaimed. “don’t make me get on my knees.”
“actually, i’d love to see that.” you say. if anyone was going to threaten you with a good time, then you’d accept it happily.
tanaka did exactly as he said he would, getting down on his knees as he gripped the sleeves of your sweater. this instantly made up for the shitty day you’ve had so far.
“y/n, please tell me whose handwriting this belongs to.” he begged.
his desperation was almost adorable. you knew who he wanted to be the person behind everything today. while you didn’t want to totally give away the surprise, you would be glad to give a hint and hope tanaka figured it out in enough time.
“all i’ll say is you better buy this person a lot of tenmusu later.” you tell him, hoping that served as a suitable clue.
“tenmusu…” tanaka tried thinking, but couldn’t come up with anything. “who the heck likes tenmusu?!”
“you know.” you smirk as you walk away. at least you could help someone else be happy today.
you walk back into the office by yourself. suga, now sitting at his desk, looked at you with a raised eyebrow. “what was that about?”
you eye tanaka as he walked back in, rubbing over your handprint on his cheek. you look over to kiyoko who doesn’t notice you’re looking at her nor that you’re aware of her secret identity.
“i’m cupid, biyotch.”
•••
it took tanaka five minutes to figure out who in this office likes tenmusu. he felt like he was on cloud nine if your hint was actually for real.
“could it… could it really be?” he questioned, almost in a love-filled daze. “if it’s really who i think it is, then i hope this dream never ends.”
•••
just what you needed to see, another delivery man. at least it wasn’t anything lavish this time, nor was it for yachi. it was merely a potted plant and a simple card. you would be glad to sign for the delivery man.
you walk over to kiyoko, yamaguchi, and tsukishima’s desks and place the plant in front of tsukishima, the receiver of said plant. “tsukki, it’s for you.”
“please don’t let it be from my mom…” he opened up the card. yeah, it was from his mom. “dammit.”
“haha, lonely, lonely tsukki once again.” yamaguchi laughed at him.
“shut up.” tsukishima rolled his eyes. “you’ve been around me too much, yamaguchi…”
“just be glad you got something today.” you say to him before heading back to your desk. when you return, ryo walked in. hopefully, he finally has the gift you’ve been waiting for all day.
“hey, babe.” he said as he leaned against your desk, watching as you sat down. “you almost ready to go? i’m gonna get the car warmed up.”
you look around. everything was filed in the right places, there weren’t any emails, and nobody was calling. there was nothing else for you to do, but you sure were bummed to have wasted your whole day mindlessly doing office work without any joy or pep in your step. “i guess, yeah.”
“what's wrong?” ryo asked, noticing you looked quite down. you know it’s bad if even he notices.
“nothing, it's just that i had to sit here all day while yachi got like an entire hallmark store delivered to her.” you say, letting out your frustrations. ryo wasn’t exactly the best person to go to when it came to your problems, but you hoped he’d just listen.
“what, are you mad at me or something?” he questioned. that wasn’t the point. he never understood the point.
“well, no—”
“then what’s the problem, y/n? i can’t read minds, ya know.” ryo scoffed.
there was no point in telling him what was wrong. he would never understand. could you really be chained to him for life like your families expected of you?
“nothing. it’s nothing.” all you could do is just bite your tongue. you’ve done it so much that it doesn’t even sting anymore.
“well, valentine's day isn't over, babe.” ryo said, trying to cheer you up, but miserably failing. “let’s get you home so i can light a candle and toss some rose petals on the bed or something.”
god. anything but that.
“i just have some things to finish up before i leave.” you lie to him. you just wanted a breather before the dreaded ride home, really.
“yeah, of course.” he replied.
once ryo left, you watch as everyone packed up for the day. tanaka seemed to be stalling his exit in hopes of catching his secret admirer earlier than the planned meetup time, but had no luck. you really wished for the best in his quest for love, especially when the one he wanted for so long.
“happy valentine’s day, y/n.” suga said on his way out.
“yeah, happy valentine’s day.” you reply. suga wouldn’t let you down like this, right? if only things were different. curse the expectations that rest as boulders on your back.
“goodnight, y/n.” yachi said as she and yamaguchi carried out her gifts together. lugging that massive teddy bear seemed to be the biggest struggle of all. at the very least, you didn’t have to deal with that monstrosity.
“night, you two…”
even if your valentine’s day wasn’t what you thought it would be, you hoped someone else—no matter who that may be—had a good day.
•••
(bonus scene)
tanaka waited outside the warehouse, his patience is wavering as it neared the meetup time. he had been dying for this all day, and it felt like time was going slower just for the sake of torturing him.
was this stupid? waiting around here like this? tanaka felt like a total idiot, that’s for sure. part of him almost thought this was one big prank, an insanely cruel one. if it was, then some ass kicking would definitely be in order.
just as tanaka was ready to say “screw it” and leave, his secret admirer finally appeared, the moment he had been waiting for all day. “tanaka.”
you weren’t playing around with your hint, it was kiyoko. come tomorrow, tanaka would give you the biggest hug in the whole world.
“kiyoko? it… it’s you?” he said breathlessly. “you’re my secret admirer?”
“mhm.” kiyoko shyly nodded.
tanaka still felt like he was dreaming. just the possibility felt like one, but knowing now that it truly was real, it was greater than the thought of pigs flying or finding a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.
“why the anonymity?” he asked her. “you know i’d love anything as long as it’s from you. i mean, i asked you to marry me on my first day here, for christ’s sake.”
tanaka almost let out a laugh looking back at the memory of his first day. when he found out kiyoko would be showing him around the office, the words “marry me” slipped out of his mouth upon her introduction, almost like it came naturally. she didn’t seem phased one bit, simply saying “no” and moving on with the office tour as if nothing happened. kiyoko never once made fun of him for it, even if she had every opportunity to.
“i know. it seems so silly, but i just…” kiyoko paused. “i get shy with this kind of thing.”
“what do you mean?” tanaka asked. the moment of truth, he figured.
“i, uh…” instead of saying anything else, kiyoko gripped the collar of tanaka’s shirt and smashed her lips against his. it didn’t take long for him to reciprocate, immediately meshing against her lips. he felt like he was floating, but if anyone were to keep tanaka on the ground, it would always be kiyoko.
when she pulled away, tanaka immediately fell backwards, a loud smack against the pavement. that had to have hurt, but he truly couldn’t feel any pain after such a movie-like kiss.
“tanaka!” kiyoko gasped as she kneeled down to inspect him for any injuries. “are you okay?!”
“never felt better.” tanaka said, a dopey smile on his face. he truly was adorable in her eyes.
kiyoko softly grinned before helping tanaka back to his feet. the touch of her hand holding his finally allowed him to let the reality of the situation sink in; kiyoko actually liked him. no prank, no sick joke, all real. he couldn’t even fathom what he did to deserve such happiness.
“if it wasn’t obvious… i really like you, tanaka.” she said, any nerves she had throughout the day now faded away. “i’m sorry it took so long for me to catch up.”
“i’m just glad you made it.” he replied, tears forming in his eyes, all from pure joy.
tanaka leaned in to kiss kiyoko, finding solace with his arms around her waist as she wrapped hers around his neck. they kissed again, and again, and again, all without a care in the world. if tanaka could stay like this forever, he would. it felt safer this way.
“you wanna get some tenmusu?” tanaka asked as he pulled away.
“that’s my favorite.” kiyoko replied. “how’d you know?”
“a little birdie told me.” he shrugged, that birdie being you.
for tanaka, this was the best valentine’s day of his entire life. plus, nishinoya was certainly going to lose his mind when he found out about this. there’s truly nothing better than the girl he loved from the start finally feeling the same way.

ONE BAD NIGHT
Daniel Riccardo x F1!Driver reader
Summary: A song fic based on Hayley Kiyoko's song "One Bad Night"
Notes: I was listening to Hayley Kiyoko ( if you don't know who she is, I recommend listening because she is amazing) and it really inspired me to write this fic. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU LISTEN TO THE SONG AS YOU READ THIS!!!!!! Let me know what you think in the comments! xoxo
Word Count: 1.3k
Tumblr media
The night air was charged with excitement as the roar of engines filled the air. The Formula 1 circuit was alive with the electric energy of competition, and amidst the fast-paced chaos, you stood poised at the starting line. As a female driver in a male-dominated sport, you had faced countless obstacles to get to this point. But tonight, as the lights flashed and the engines revved, you were determined to prove your worth.
Among the crowd, your eyes locked with the charismatic Australian driver, Daniel Ricciardo. His infectious smile and magnetic personality had always captivated you, and tonight was no exception. The connection between you was immediate, as if the universe conspired to bring you together on this fateful night. It felt like yesterday when you first met him.  
-
The sun beat down on the asphalt as the Formula 1 paddock buzzed with excitement. It was a hot summer day, and the air was thick with the smell of rubber and anticipation. As a young and determined female driver, you stood in the midst of it all, ready to take on the world of motorsport.
Among the sea of mechanics, engineers, and fellow drivers, your eyes caught sight of a familiar face – Daniel Ricciardo. His vibrant smile and infectious energy seemed to light up the paddock, drawing people towards him like a magnet. It was hard not to be captivated by his charm and the aura of positivity that surrounded him.
As fate would have it, you found yourself crossing paths with Daniel near the garage. The lyrics of Hayley Kiyoko's "One Bad Night" echoed in your mind, as if they were predicting the significance of this encounter. There was an instant connection, a spark of recognition that passed between you, as if the universe had conspired to bring you together.
You mustered up the courage to approach him, your heart pounding with a mix of excitement and nervousness. He turned towards you, his eyes lighting up with genuine curiosity. At that moment, you knew there was something special about him – something that drew you closer.
"Hi," you said, your voice filled with a blend of determination and excitement. "I've admired your racing skills and your positive energy. It's an honor to meet you, Daniel."
Daniel grinned, his eyes sparkling with warmth. "Well, it's great to meet you too! I've heard about your talent on the track. We should definitely grab a coffee sometime and talk racing."
You felt a surge of excitement and gratitude. The lyrics of the song played in your head, echoing the possibilities that lay before you. It was the beginning of a friendship – a connection that would soon blossom into something more.
In the weeks that followed, you and Daniel found yourselves spending more and more time together. Coffee dates turned into late-night conversations about racing strategies and dreams. He listened intently to your stories of overcoming obstacles and breaking barriers as a female driver, his support unwavering.
The more you got to know Daniel, the more you realized how genuinely kind and down-to-earth he was. Despite his success and fame, he remained humble and grounded, always making time for those around him. He became your confidant, someone you could lean on during the highs and lows of the racing world.
As the friendship deepened, you couldn't ignore the growing affection between you. The lyrics of the song took on a new meaning, reflecting the emotions that swirled within your hearts. There were stolen glances, subtle touches, and moments that felt like they were straight out of a fairytale.
One fateful evening, as the sun set over the paddock, you found yourselves alone, lost in each other's gaze. The lyrics of "One Bad Night" whispered through your mind, fueling the courage within you.
"I've come to realize that one bad night ain't enough to forget you," you said, your voice filled with sincerity. "I don't want to let fear or doubt hold us back. Let's take a leap of faith, Daniel."
He smiled, his eyes sparkling with the same affection mirrored in your own. "I couldn't agree more. Life's too short to let opportunities slip away. Let's embrace whatever comes our way, together."
And in that moment, surrounded by the whispers of the song, you knew that this meeting was more than just chance. It was destiny, weaving your paths together in a tale of love and racing that would transcend the boundaries of the track. As the sun dipped below the horizon, you held hands, ready to
 embark on a journey filled with exhilarating twists, heart-pounding turns, and a love that would endure the trials of the racing world.
The race began, and the adrenaline coursed through your veins as you pushed your car to the limits. Every twist and turn was executed with precision, every decision calculated in the blink of an eye. The lyrics of "One Bad Night" echoed in your mind, the haunting melody mirroring the yearning in your heart.
"One bad night ain't enough to forget you," Hayley Kiyoko's voice echoed as you raced, the words resonating with the passion burning within you. It was a love that defied logic, one that refused to be extinguished by the challenges of the racing world. As the laps flew by, you found yourself locked in a fierce battle with Daniel, each maneuver and strategy pushing you closer together.
With every lap, the chemistry between you intensified. The lyrics of the song played in your head, the words capturing the unspoken desires and emotions swirling within your soul. It was a dangerous dance, one where the line between victory and defeat blurred with the intoxicating allure of love.
As the race reached its climax, you found yourselves side by side, the intensity of the moment almost overwhelming. The cheers of the crowd melded with the crescendo of the song, the lyrics becoming an anthem of the connection you shared.
"One bad night ain't enough to forget you," the words reverberated as you fought for every inch of the track. The world around you disappeared, and it was just you and Daniel, two hearts intertwined in a battle of wills and emotions.
And then, in a split second, it happened. A daring move, a calculated risk that paid off. You overtook Daniel, claiming the lead with a surge of adrenaline. The crowd erupted in cheers, their voices blending with the lyrics that now took on a whole new meaning.
But as the race concluded, and the checkered flag waved, a bittersweet realization settled in. The racing world was demanding, often tearing apart the most fervent of connections. The lyrics of the song now took on a different tone, reflecting the challenges that lay ahead.
"One bad night ain't enough to forget you, but I'll try," the lyrics echoed, mirroring the inner turmoil you faced. The road ahead was uncertain, filled with obstacles that threatened to separate you both. But the connection you had formed was undeniable, and you were determined to fight for it.
As the sun set and darkness embraced the paddock, you found solace in each other's arms. The lyrics of the song served as a reminder of the battles that lay ahead, but also of the love that burned bright within your hearts. Together, you vowed to defy the odds, to navigate the twists and turns of life and love with the same passion and determination that had brought you together.
"One bad night ain't enough to forget you," you whispered, your voice blending with the lyrics that resonated in the stillness of the night. It was a promise, a testament to the strength of your connection, and the beginning of a love story that would endure the challenges that lie ahead.
As the stars twinkled overhead, you and Daniel held onto each other, ready to face whatever came your way. Because one bad night was never enough to forget the love that had bloomed in the heart of the fast-paced world you both called home.
