“Nao, are you sure it’s fine for me to stay over,” Shibayama questioned his boyfriend. He was currently at Daishou’s house. Kuguri had been invited to a sleepover for the Nohebi team and invited his boyfriend to tag along.
“It’s fine Yuuki, Daishou and Kuroo-san are friends you know and you’re Kuroo-san’s friend so you’re also Daishou’s friend,” Kuguri assured him. It had been a surprise when they found out that their captains were actually friends since middle school, but it meant that they could date peacefully.
“I don’t think that’s how friends work,” said an unenthusiastic Hiroo as he sat down next to them.
Numai came into the room and plonked onto a bean bag next to Akama, who was sleeping already, “It’s late anyways and I doubt that little Yuuki would want to go outside at this hour.”
Kuguri shot his teammate a scowl. Shibayama noticed and crawled into his lap.
“Nao, can I rest here for a bit. It’s getting late,” Shibayama yawned. The little libero snuggled closer to Kuguri’s chest.
Kuguri short circuited. Yuuki. Is. In. My. Lap. Oh goodness, don’t panic, idiot. He felt his face slightly heating up as he looked at the smaller boy, “Yeah, sure.” Shibayama smiled up at him before closing his eyes.
“Ew.” Daishou gagged.
“Shut up dude, I’ve seen you be all lovey dovey with Mika and I never say anything about it,” Sakishima interjected.
“I cannot physically imagine Daishou being lovey dovey with anyone,” Kuguri chuckled softly.
“I never imagined that you’d end up dating someone from Tetsu’s team and here we are,” Daishou retorted, “Also, since when do you fucking know how to laugh?”
“Language,” Seguro mumbled. All eyes in the room turned to him as his face flushed red in embarrassment. “Sorry! Force of habit.”
The team burst into laughter. Even though other schools saw them as cheaters and bad people in general, they were actually just regular teenage boys. They liked to have fun and joke around with each other.
“You guys are idiots,” Takachiho came into the room with a movie in hand. “Here’s the one you wanted to watch Daishou.” He tossed it to the captain who looked at the cover.
“The Lorax? Really?” Numai joked.
“Shush,” Daishou playfully smacked his head, “Just watch.” He took the DVD out of the box and placed it into the DVD player in his room. Hiroo stood up to turn off the lights and Sakishima went to get popcorn for them.

“Yo, that movie was beautiful,” Numai said, his eyes tearing up.
Akama had woken up when they started the movie and was also tearing up. In fact most of the team was. Except for Kuguri.
“This lil shit, he fell asleep too,” Daishou commented as he glanced at the sleeping couple. “I’m gonna wake them up.” The captain stood up from his spot on the bed. He crouched down next to Kuguri and poked his cheek, “Boop.”
“Pfft-” Daishou being childish was enough to make Hiroo laugh.
Kuguri yawned and opened his eyes. “Hm, what?” He looked up at Daishou and the rest of the team with innocent eyes.
“Bro, he looks so freaking cute when he just wakes up,” Numai whispered.
Takachiho nodded, “He looks like an innocent child.”
Kuguri blinked a few times and regained control of himself. He looked down at a sleeping Shibayama in his lap and placed his arms around him.
“Are you sure you don’t want to wake him,” Daishou asked, pointing at Shibayama.
Kuguri looked him in the eyes, “No.”
The captain moved his arms to pick Shibayama up, “Okay, but we should at least move him-”
“Touch him. I dare you.” Kuguri brought Shibayama closer to himself.
Daishou backed away, “So he’s grumpy when barely waking up, lesson learned.”
“Dude, that was scary,” mumbled Numai.
“I know,” Takachiho replied.
Seguro chuckled, “You guys sound like aunts gossiping at a family reunion.” He threw pillows at both of their faces.
Shibayama moved around in Kuguri’s lap, he opened his eyes and yawned. “Nao? Oh, we're still at Daishou-san’s house.” He stretched his arms and looked at the rest of the boys in the room. “What time is it?”
“3 AM,” Akama said, putting his phone away.
“Nao, let’s go back to sleep, it's late,” Shibayama nudged his boyfriend, who was already asleep again. “Aaaand he’s asleep.”
“Well, lil Yuuki is right,” Numai stood up from the bean bag, “It’s late, we should probably sleep now.”
“I mean, Daishou also just fell asleep,” Sakishima said. “I will never be able to understand how he falls asleep so easily.”
Numai shrugged. At least they didn’t have school later that day. “Akama, cuddle with me. I wanna sleep.”
Akama looked at him with an amused expression and raised an eyebrow, “The heck bro, I’m not gay like you.”
“It’s not gay if it’s with the homies,” Numai grinned.
Nohebi's libero rolled his eyes, “Most illogical reasoning I’ve ever heard, but okay.”
The boys who were still awake laughed at the weird conversation between the two friends. “Just go to sleep,” Takachiho said, turning off the TV and the lamp in Daishou’s room.

That morning, it was a repeat of the same situation that had happened that night.
“Are you sure you don’t want to wake him,” an exasperated Daishou asked, remembering how this same conversation had ended before.
Kuguri glared at him, “No.”
Daishou sighed, “Okay, but we should at least move him-”
“Touch him. I dare you.”
“He never does change,” Hiroo mumbled as he left Daishou’s house.
