Chapter Text
Kuroo knew it was wrong when he asked for the password to the surveillance site. He knew it was wrong to stalk someone. He knew that this was messed up. This kind of thing went against his morals, yet Kuroo found himself sitting in the dead of night watching Tsukishima Kei sleep. The computer light was the only light on in the room illuminating his shame. He should really do that Essay due on Wednesday, but for now Tsukishima was his obsession.
Kuroo watched him while Tsukishima slept, ate and did homework. He realized that Tsukishima had a pretty, boring life. Yet Kuroo wanted to be apart of it.
Kuroo sighed and closed the laptop. He needed to stop this. If Tsukishima ever found out- that would be the end. No chances in ever getting together with him ever. Knowing him, that was very much a possibility. Kuroo could not let that happen under any circumstance.
The best thing that Kuroo got out of this was getting to see Tsukishima more, even if it was just observing, and he got to know him better. Tsukishima ate easy mac for almost every single meal instead of going to the dining hall. When Kageyama isn't home, Tsukishima will set his volleyball to himself sometimes. He does laundry on Wednesday night. He has some sort of job somewhere, where he works somewhere with a cute uniform for a store he doesn't recognize. He has some interest in dinosaurs? Paleontology wasn't his major, but there was a copious amount of dinosaur figurines and posters.
The thing that surprised Kuroo the most was Tsukishima's art skills. He is really at graphic design. Kuroo couldn't tell what he was making most of the time, but when he was done Tsukishima would print it out and hang it on the wall to critique it and make some adjustments. Kuroo was really impressed with how talented he was in this subject.
The little things he learned about Tsukishima always gave him a pleasant surprise that kept bringing him back for more.

Over the span of two weeks, Kuroo had learned a considerable amount of things about Tsukishima, including his schedule. Teachers had always say things like "humans are creatures of habit." Well, Tsukishima was exactly that. He worked shifts in the evening. He had classes on Tuesday and Wednesday back to back. Most of the time kageyama and Hinata were not in the dorm for whatever reason. This gave Kuroo lots of openings. He was planning on hiding more notes, but he got held up by the unfortunate circumstance of college. He was also looking for a job. Kuroo really needed money but he also really wanted to keep this scheme up.
Kuroo planned on hiding a few more notes later that evening when Tsukishima was scheduled to work. The only down side was that Kageyama and Hinata came and went whenever they pleased. He knew their volleyball schedule, becuase it was his own. Still, Kuroo couldn't just skip practice to flirt with Tsukishima. The only thing he could do was watch the monitor screen that let him watch over them like some type of artificial god.
Kuroo closed his laptop and pulled out his stash of sticky notes. He had lots already pre made and ready to make Kei's day, but the problem was choosing one. They all seemed so perfectly clever and cheese my he wanted to give Kei all of them at once. But he couldn't because that'd probably freak him out. Kuroo's goal was only to get Kei to blush a little and maybe call him once if he was lucky.
He decided on the eyebrow pickup line and stuffed it in his pocket. That one might even make him laugh a little he thought to himself. Now, all he needed todo was to pick the right time to sneak in the dorm.

Kuroo has made a giant mistake. He's fucked up so bad. He covered his mouth with his hand to muffle his breathing while he peered out of Tsukishima Kei's closet. He had hidden himself in the closet when he heard Hinata's booming voice down the hallway. To his disdain, he discovered kageyama and Hinata chatting away on his bed as Kuroo was mentally stabbing himself. Not knowing Kageyama's schedule was really biting him in the ass right now.
He hasn't been discovered yet, so for now everything is going smoothly. He'll just wait it out and then make his escape.
Kuroo finally got his breathing under control and wiped his brow. It was stuffy in there but he could wait it out being enveloped in Kei's sent- and oh my holy shit they're making out. Kageyama and Hinata were making out. Kuroo was definitely not ready to watch them have sex. He made a nonhuman noise and slipped on a shoe falling against the wall. Well, his cover is defiantly blown and they have defiantly stopped kissing.
Fuck what should I do???? What do I do?? Kuroo haven't set any pranks and the sticky notes were still in his hands. He's a goner. Kuroo didn't have more time anytime to ponder before Kageyama forcefully destroyed Kuroo's shield of shirts.
"Kuroo-San?" Kageyama looks at him questionably. Kuroo just looks at him dumbly and says nothing. His worst nightmare is acting out right I front of him and he's just letting it happen. Hinata comes over to join the staring contest and seems to put things together.
"Kuroo were you trying to prank us??" Hinata asks innocently and Kuroo sighs in relief.
"Uhh... yeah actually-" Kuroo stammers. "You caught me." He sheepishly grins. Oh jeez, thank god he didn't choose acting for his major. and thank god these two are idiots.
But this didn't seem to convince Kageyama. He squinted at him and then smiled . "Oh? Then where's the prank Kuroo-San" he sneers and then takes the note out of Kuroo's unsuspecting hand. Kuroo watches Kageyama read the note and bust in to giggles after he's read the punchline. Kuroo's face reddens. "So, you are the one that's harassing Tsukishima."
