Work Text:
Sitting on the train was more tiring than having a 2-hour practice. Hinata didn't mind the business, the crowds but, being still and not having any social interaction was bumming him out. He felt weird amongst the people who were happily chatting away in other cabins. He sighed, 'all this for a good cause, Shoyo.' If the unbearable silence was what he had to go through to meet his boyfriend then it was worth it. Maybe if he sleeps, time will pass faster, there is still 1 more hour left.
And that's what he did, let himself go into a deep sleep, hoping that, when he woke up, the train will have arrived.
"Excuse me?...uh, little boy?" Shoyo heard a middle-aged woman's voice and something poking his arm. Opening his eyes fast, it took him a couple of seconds to focus his eyes. He realized that while sleeping, his head ended up on said woman's shoulder.
'Ohh fuckkk! That's embarrassing!'
"Gomen'nasai!!! I'm very sorry, uh.....?" He bowed respectfully, getting up from his seat.
"Acca." The woman smiled sweetly, indicating that Hinata was more than forgiven.
"I'm very sorry, Acca-san! I'm Hinata Shoyo!" He grinned, sitting back down, next to this wonderfully kind woman. She just gave him a reassuring glance.
"Where are you headed to?" Her honey-laced voice was so soothing and calm, it made Hinata feel a certain type of safety he only felt around his family and friends.
"I'm going to Tokyo!....you?" She chuckled, ruffling his hair which would've usually annoyed him.
"Also going to Tokyo, I'm visiting my nephew. What are you doing in Tokyo?" She gently whispered as another kid next to them started to fall asleep. They were resting their head against (what Hinata assumed was) their brother's shoulder. His mind immediately went to Natsu.
"Oh, I'm visiting my b-" He stopped, despite the kindness of this lady, you never knew what people thought about having a boyfriend while being a boy. Not that he cared about those types of people, but Shoyo was not looking for drama on the train where an audience could watch.
"Your b?" She continued, confused.
"My partner." He finished, with a lopsided smile. She raised an eyebrow at him.
"Did you mean 'boyfriend', dear?" Acca questioned. The ginger shyly nodded.
"Aww, dear, you don't have to worry!" She lingered for a second.
"I want to show you something, wait" Acca began searching through her purse, pulling out an old phone with buttons. Shoyo was watching her nervously, you never know what to expect from strangers on the train.
"Look!" He looked at what was on the phone. It was Acca-san with another lady and a man, they were cuddling while watching a movie. That picture raised more questions than answers. It could have meant multiple things.
"Um, what exactly does that mean?" He politely pointed to the picture, a puzzled look on his face. She chuckled.
"That's my girlfriend-" she pointed to the woman "and that's my boyfriend." She pointed to the man. His jaw has reached the floor. The short middle blocker stared at her and then at her phone.
"You're...?" He started. "Bisexual? Yes. Polyamorous? Yep." She clapped him on the shoulder.
"You're never alone, kid." He wanted to say something back, to say how much this interaction meant to him -
"We have arrived at the Tokyo Train Station, line 3, all passengers are to get off in an orderly manner."
"That's our stop!" Acca rubbed her chin gingerly, getting up from her seat. It was then that Hinata realized how damn tall this woman was. She was at least around Kageyama's height. Hinata gaped, resembling a brain-dead goldfish.
The woman didn't comment on his expression, and skipped past him, signaling to him to get off quicker. He bid goodbye to the wonderful lady and promised they would see each other again as Acca was resisting the urge to adopt him. They went in different directions and Hinata saw Acca go into a shop. (maybe she was getting gifts for her nephew?)
Looking around, searching for Kuroo and Kenma, he spotted a pudding pair of hair with his nose in his phone. Rolling his eyes, he began walking towards that person.
"Kenma! Hi!" He waved at the slightly taller boy, his cat-like eyes looking up towards the ginger. Not paying attention to his surroundings, he bumped into a red jacket, with white printing on it. Rubbing his nose as it hurt from the impact, Hinata prepared himself to shout at the one wearing the jacket. Unfortunately, he was too slow, as the person lifted Hinata by the waist.
"HEY! WHAT THE F-" He shouted, but, opening his eyes, he was met with dark black hair, golden eyes, and a Cheshire smirk.
"What were you saying, kitten? Hmmm?" Cat-like hooded eyes were staring holes into him.
"OMG, YOU FUCKING IDIOT!" Hinata, suddenly, hid his face into that person's neck and laughed while hitting them on the chest playfully.
"I was going to drop-kick you, to be honest, Kuroo."
Kuroo, the person he ran into, Hinata's boyfriend, the captain of Nekoma's Volleyball Team. Kuroo gulped and laughed nervously.
"I won't stop you, Shoyo." Kenma, the one from before, said with his usual quiet voice. Kuroo gasped with fake hurt lacing his words.
"You wound me, Kenma." He said, burying his nose into the orange hair.
"Put me down before I kick you in the shin, babe," Hinata announced but his boyfriend didn't even budge. He rolled his eyes and proceeded to pet Kuroo's hair, pecking his boyfriend on the nose.
"Kuroo put me down now." He said. Kuroo sighed in defeat and ended up letting Hinata down, but still attached himself to the shorter one by holding his hand in the pocket of his jacket.
"Shoyo, how was the trip here?" Kenma asked, still typing on his phone but listening to his friend talk.
"Pretty boring, if I'm being totally honest."
"There's a but incoming, isn't there?" Kenma smiled slightly behind the collar of his jacket. Shoyo loved keeping things a mystery and then, revealing them dramatically. The shorter glared.
"BUT!" Hinata stuck his tongue out at the dyed blonde. "I met this nice lady, she kept me company for the last half an hour or so. OH OH OH! She was also very tall like 'bam' tall, very very tall!" Kuroo chuckled and squeezed his boyfriend's hand.
"Did you ask her about the weather up there?" Kuroo asked, annoying his boyfriend with a cheesy smirk.
"Oh, fuck you, Tetsuro." Kenma laughed quietly.
"Sure." Hinata snatched his hand away and flipped the tallest one-off.
Kenma was trying hard not to laugh at his childhood friends' antics as they always angered Krasuno's decoy. Even though they loved one another, they were also their biggest enemies as they knew the best weapon to tick one of them off. Kenma smiled, it was still a mystery to him how a happy, determined person confessed to a provocative and manipulative person like Kuroo. All this while maintaining a healthy relationship. Maybe they were opposites, but their love for one another shined through. (Kenma will always reveal things Kuroo and Hinata like to do together to others, only for embarrassment purposes).
"Shoyou! Betraying your boyfriend, how could you?" Kuroo leaned down and pecked Hinata on the cheek, making his face go bright red.
'If I knew I was going to third-wheel, I wouldn't have come.' Kenma sighed, this was always the biggest downside to going out with these two dumbasses/lovebirds. (He didn't know which one was worse) Hinata always loves talking and including everyone in group activities. Kuroo easily gets jealous and teases Hinata about whatever he would do at that moment, which ticked the ginger off. That's how Kuroo got attention from his boyfriend, by teasing/annoying him, which is not new.
"By the way, Shoyo..." Kenma interrupted their usual bickering.
"Hmm? Yes, Kenma?" Curious, Hinata's eyes widened within a second as they would do when he finds out something new. (Kenma was known to be an observant person so it was no mystery how he knew so much about his friends).
"Do you want to practice with us? The coaches are not here today." Hinata's eyes sparkled, jumping up and down in front of his friend excitedly.
"Yes! Of course!"
"Oh, come on, Kenma. I wanted to tell him that." Kuroo grumbled and looked off to the side, but not before showing Kenma an obvious frown. Kenma rolled his eyes, as he said, typical for his best friend.
In front of the gym, Hinata was super pumped up to meet his friends from Nekoma. Not only that but also to play with them. Maybe Yaku was going to teach him how to receive, he still needed to work on that. His face was starting to hurt from receiving the ball with it. (Not that it didn't hurt before, he just felt it more now).
"SHOOYYOOO!" Kenma flinched and scoffed, hiding behind Hinata, and continued to type on his phone. Hinata recognized that voice, jumping so high he could reach Kuroo's head.
"LEV!" Shoyo also screamed, smiling.
"Did you grow any taller?" Lev smirked like the asshole beanpole that he is. Hinata huffed and glared, resisting the urge to punch this tall human being.
"THAT'S RUDE LEV" Hinata was annoyed now. Lev was unbothered as he ruffled his hair.
"I grew two centimeters!"
"Lev..." Hinata heard his boyfriend's voice.
"AH! Sorry, captain!" Lev rubbed his neck, avoiding his captain's eyes. Kuroo-san was a scary person when it came to Shoyo.
"Hey, Hinata!" Another new voice joined the scene. Hinata looked around and.....Yaku-san! Awesome!
"Hello, Yaku-san!" Hinata bowed, allowing Yaku to ruffle his hair. (Yes, he did not like his hair being ruffled but come on! It was Yaku!
Demon-Senpai!)
"Are you joining our practice?" He asked, and smiled at the middle blocker.
"YES!"
Kuroo rolled his eyes, Yaku always got Hinata's attention when he would visit. He agreed that Yaku was one of the best liberos but it still made him jealous. Hinata was his boyfriend! He was visiting him! Not the demon senpai!
"Drop it, Kuroo," Kenma whispered to him and went inside the gym. Kuroo pouted but followed his friend inside.
Not long after chatting for a bit, Yaku went inside. Probably to stretch. That reminds Hinata that he also needs to do that. He was left outside with Lev who sighed, his eyes following Yaku's figure. That raised some questions in the crow's head.
"What's with the long face, dude?" He asked, patting his friend on the back. (Lower back as that was the only place he could reach. Damn long legs). Lev flinched and looked down, smiling nervously.
"Huh? Nothing, Shoyo! Come on, let's go play!" Lev rushed inside and Hinata was left dumbfounded. What just happened? Lev was quiet and looked like he was on the verge of crying only 1 minute ago.
'Come on, Shoyo. Don't overthink it'
After they all stretched, they made the teams. Only Lev, Yaku, Kuroo, Kenma, and Inuoka were there. The others didn't come as they all probably had pre-made plans for the weekend.
They tried the teams:
Hinata, Kenma and Yaku
Kuroo, Lev and Inuoka
They soon realized that that meant Hinata would tire way too quickly. He would also block and spike more than the other two. Plus, they were all shorter than Kuroo, Lev, and Inuoka. The problem was that Hinata was persistent in playing with Yaku and Kenma and he didn't care if it meant it would tire him. "Volleyball could never make me tired!" Even though Kuroo tried to reason with his boyfriend, he couldn't resist the gingers' puppy dog eyes.
"Fine..." Kuroo said after a whole 10 minutes of arguing. Hinata smirked in victory.
"Shoyo wins again." Before Kuroo could say anything back, Hinata left to go talk with Kenma and Yaku.
"KENMA, YOU'RE GONNA SET FOR ME!" Shoyo attached himself to the slightly taller boy and hugged him tightly. Kenma sighed, this was going to take a lot out of him. Kuroo owes him a new game.
"Come on, let's start this!" shouted Inuoka as Kuroo was preparing to serve. Yaku nodded and gave him a thumbs up. They got in their respective positions. From what Kenma noticed it looked like Kuroo let Lev block, allowing him to set for Inuoka.
'He'll go for Shoyo' Kenma thought. Everyone knew Hinata couldn't receive, making him an easy target.
Exactly as he thought, even though Kuroo's serve could never match Oikawa's or Ushijima's, he still has the power to get the ball over the net. Fortunately for them, Yaku also knew what Kuroo planned and received the ball before it reached Hinata. Yaku sent it to Kenma, who all this time was paying attention to where Shoyo positioned himself.
"Kenma!" Shoyo screamed as Kenma set the ball to him, spiking it down. Lev managed to block it though.
"Damn it!" Shoyo frowned.
"Don't mind it, chibi." Yaku patted his back.
"You're used to hitting Kageyama's tosses which are high and fast. Kenma's are thought out and strategic."
"But Kageyama's tosses are also strategic." Hinata cocked his head to the side. Yaku facepalmed. Kenma sighed, that's not what Yaku meant. For them to have an easier match, it would mean that Hinata slowed down to also see what Kenma is doing. That was not usual for the freak duo as Hinata always knew Kageyama would get the ball to him. As amazing as that was, Kenma didn't match Kageyama's play style. He'll let Shoyo figure that out himself though.
"Yeah!" He was accompanied by Inuoka.
Kenma served this time. He wanted to aim for Lev but with his lack of strength, it didn't go over the net. He sighed, this was harder than he originally planned.
"Don't mind it, Kenma" Smiled Shoyo.
After a while of playing, the score was 3-2 for Kuroo's team. It was the captain's turn to serve again, and Yaku steadied himself, prepared to receive the ball. As expected, he did it with ease and sent it to the setter. The difference now was that Hinata was trying to predict Kenma's strategic thinking. Fortunately for their team, Hinata spiked down the ball after Lev jumped, making the ball go over his head. Kuroo tried to receive it, but it had already reached the floor.
The game ended with a tie.
Hinata was gulping down a whole bottle of water. Yes, he was thirsty and a bit tired. Will he admit that? Hell no! Usually, Hinata had enough stamina to last for days but sleeping on the train and directly playing volleyball without a break made him a bit dizzy.
"Your spikes are amazing, Shoyo!" Inuoka complimented him.
"Yours also! Like 'bam' and 'whoosh.'"
Hinata realized Lev was being quiet on the floor, playing with a volleyball. What was happening to him? He decided it was best if he asked Kuroo.
"Babe?" Hinata asked, tapping him on the arm while still looking at the half-Russian teenager.
"Hmm? Yeah?"
"What's going on with Lev?" He pointed to the tall middle blocker. Kuroo raised an eyebrow.
"How would I know?" Kuroo questioned, sitting down on a bench. Hinata scowled.
"I'm serious, Tetsuro."
"I know but I don't know what's wrong with him."
"AREN'T YOU THE CAPTAIN?" Hinata bonked Kuroo's head. Kuroo whined.
"OW! WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO WITH ANYTHING?!" Kuroo rubbed his head, sulking.
"For fucks' sake, babe. Doesn't he look off?" Kuroo glared at his short boyfriend and turned his eyes to Lev. Maybe Hinata was right, Lev looked like he was thinking about another world.
"You might be right."
"I know I am." Kuroo sighed in defeat.
"Yaku also was feeling down these past couple of days, if you're wondering."
"He was?" Hinata started to put the pieces together. He didn't want to make assumptions yet though.
"It might just be a tough time for them, I don't know."
"Lev seemed to be mad at Yaku about something," Hinata told Kuroo, sitting down next to his boyfriend. Kuroo put his arm around the shorter male.
"Why do you say that?"
"I don't know, he looked like he wanted to tell Yaku something-" Hinata suddenly stopped. 'Oh'
"What?" Kuroo asked, face getting closer and closer to the redhead.
"You are dumb," Hinata said, giving Kuroo a peck.
"Woooowww, and here I was wanting to take you out on a date." Kuroo sarcastically said.
"You can still do that. Doesn't change the fact that you're dumb."
Kenma came into the conversation.
"Why are you calling Kuro dumb, Shoyo?" He asked, curious.
"Kenma."
"Um, yeah?" The dyed-hair boy asked,
"Have you noticed the thing with Yaku and Lev?" Kenma was dumbfounded. He thought everyone knew. At the same time, it was amusing sometimes when Lev would get flustered around Yaku. (even if he was loud)
"Yeah, everyone knows."
"Except Kuroo?"
"Yeah."
"DON'T SPEAK IN HALF SENTENCES! WHAT DON'T I KNOW!" Kuroo was desperate, what the fuck were they talking about. What does everyone know?
"Tetsuro, did you confess to me right away when you realized you liked me?" asked Hinata.
"Why are you asking me that?"
"I'll leave you to deal with him." Kenma quietly said and left to go play a certain game on his phone.
"Just answer it."
"Fine, fine. Well, I was scared you wouldn't like it and it took me a couple of days to gather up my courage. But before I could do anything you confessed first." Kuroo's eyes widened.
"Oh."
"I'm happy you get it now." Hinata kissed his cheek and leaned into the taller male.
"I am dumb."
"Yeah, you are."
"HEY! That's the part where you say 'No, you aren't Tetsuro, I love you Tetsuro." He said, adding quotations with his fingers.
"But I still love you, Tetsuro," Hinata grinned. Kuroo stuck his tongue out at him.
"We're getting meat buns now," Hinata announced.
"Huh?! Why?"
"Because you wanted to speak with Yaku?" Hinata devilishly smiled at his dark-haired boyfriend. His eyes took an intimidating allure and his voice was full of eeriness.
"oH, yES! About?" Kuroo whispered the last part.
"About....." And with that Hinata went in the direction of Lev and winked at Kuroo.
'Ohhh, about that'
"ALRIGHT!" Kuroo clapped his hands two times, gathering everyone's attention. Doesn't matter how much the team teased him, he was still the captain. He got that role and his teammates respect him.
"We're getting meat buns, everyone!"
"And Kuroo's paying!" Hinata added.
"Wait...WHA-?!" Before he could even finish, Inuoka and Lev rushed out like puppies playing catch.
"Thanks, captainnnnn!" Kuroo sighed, he was too soft for the first years, damn it. His tangerine partner only winked at him, with an irritable smirk attached to his lips. Yaku and Kenma were laughing slightly, behind their black-haired captain.
"OI!" Kuroo yelled.
"Cheer up, Testsuro. You're treating your favorite people with food." Hinata slyly said, hugging Kuroo, and nuzzling his nose into his arm. (He only did this to persuade Kuroo, it always worked).
"That's why I like you chibi," Yaku said and left the gym with Kenma following close behind. As soon as Hinata was sure they were alone, he turned to Kuroo.
"And you're helping me get Lev to confess." He said sternly, his hands placed on his hips. Kuroos' eyes narrowed.
"Or get Yaku to confess?" He questioned.
"Or that."
Next to the meat bun shop, (which was only a man with a little stand, making money for college), Hinata monitored every move Lev was making. And Kuroo did the same with Yaku. Inuoka was explaining to Kenma his spiking technique while the latter listened, playing on his DS. (Kuroo took it away while he ate).
"Say, Yakkun...." Kuroo tried to start a conversation.
"What do you want?" The shortest 3rd year asked suspiciously.
"Now, that's just rude." Yaku scoffed. 'Demon-senpai...' Kuroo sweatdropped.
"Fine, fine, I'm sorry... Still, what do you want?" Yaku sighed, rubbing his temples with his index fingers.
"What do you think about Kenma?" 'Play it smooth, Testuro, you don't want him to know what you're up to.' Yaku was caught off guard by Kuroo's sudden interest in what he thinks about a teammate. Just what was this rooster-head trying to do?
"Why are you asking me about your best friend?" He asked, if Kuroo was talking in riddles, he would do the same thing.
"I'm just asking for an opinion." Kuroo shrugged. The so-called 'demon-senpai' was getting impatient.
"He's an awesome teammate, reliable setter. Is that a good answer?" Kuroo smiled brightly. His plan started to be put into action and Yaku fell right into his trap. Was he a genius or was he not?
"What about Inuoka?" Yaku grumbled in frustration, his captain was pissing him off.
"Golden retriever." The back-haired idiot did his iconic hyena laugh which got a sigh of relief out of Yaku. He thought Kuroo was done with his stupid questions.
"About, hmmm...Shoyo?" Yaku had no patience left and kicked Kuroo's leg. A hiss and an 'OW!' came from him.
"Why in the name of fuck are you asking me about your boyfriend?!" Yaku full-on was planning on murdering his captain. (It was Kuroo's fault for riling him up.) He grabbed Kuroo by the collar of his T-shirt.
"Answer it, Yakkun!" Kuroo sang teasingly.
"For fucks sake!! Sunshine!" Kuroo smirked, true. Hinata was a ray of sunshine in disguise with a devil side that only Kuroo gets to know. I'm sorry simps (not).
"Lev?"
"FUCKING PRETTY BOY!" Yaku, only in a matter of seconds, got red in the face. (The color of his face was close to their volleyball uniform). The libero dropped Kuroo. He met the ground with an 'oof' and back pain. (Hinata owed him a massage.)
Meanwhile, Hinata and Lev were playing rock paper scissors to cure some of their boredom. The orange head was trying to think of a way to ask Lev about Yaku. (Without it being suspicious) In the end, he decided to just fuck it, and question this skyscraper directly. After finishing their intense game with Lev winning, Hinata started to interrogate his friend.
"Lev?"
"Hmm?" Hummed Lev, showing he was paying attention to what Hinata was about to say.
"You like Yaku-san, don't you?" Lev choked on his spit, he was coughing so hard, tears were welling up in his eyes.
'Great work, Shoyo.' Kenma who was nearby the two first years sighed. Inuoka was already screaming into his ear and he couldn't focus on his game. Shoyo was known to be a straightforward person, but now Lev was choking on air with the tangerine patting his back, offering him water.
"WHERE DID THAT COME FROM?!" yelled Lev. He sat down on a nearby bench. Hinata rubbed his neck.
"You do tho-" He was cut off by Lev covering his mouth with his hand. Hinata glared and tried to keep talking but the words came out muffled. In the end, he bit Lev's hand.
"OW! What was that for?!" cried Lev, yanking his hand back and hiding it behind him. Hinata rolled his eyes and ignored the question.
"Do you like Yaku-san?"
"Why are you pushy about it?!" Lev was gripping his hair now desperately. Hinata immediately noticed, he grabbed Lev's hands and held them.
"I'm sorry, Lev." Lev sighed and shook his head.
"It's fine....... Yes, I do." He mumbled the last part. Hinata brightened up and jumped, hitting his head on a tree branch. Petting his head with a hiss, he exclaimed:
"I KNEW-"
"FUCKING PRETTY BOY!" was heard in the distance, Hinata latched onto Lev, and Lev onto Hinata like two scared chickens. After coming to their senses, they checked where the sound came from. There was Kuroo on the ground with Yaku running away? Inuoka rushed to their captain's side and helped him up.
Kenma who was watching this all go down grimaced. What was this? Some kind of plot to a cliche movie? He wasn't looking for a drama that day, or any other day but with Shoyo, all kinds of crazy things happened. With Shoyo's determination to achieve whatever he puts his mind to, Kenma knows that the tangerine will try to get Yaku and Lev together. It didn't matter what he needed to go through. He got up and stopped next to Shoyo.
"Shoyo...."
"Oh, Kenma?" Shoyo looked at his friend. Kenma was looking off to the side to where Kuroo and Inuoka were talking.
"Was this necessary?" Hinata chuckled.
"Yes!" And with that, he went towards his boyfriend, dragging Lev behind him. Kenma rolled his eyes. 'Chaos'
'Damn it, damn it, damn it' Yaku kept mumbling till he reached a dead end. He sighed and sat down on the ground. Damn Kuroo, damn his feelings, damn Lev. He was a third-year for fuck sake! He was graduating! He should be able to control these kinds of things but then Lev comes with his stupid face, stupid eyes, stupid smile! He was messing Yaku up and Yaku wasn't even complaining about it. (until now apparently).
Suddenly, his phone rang. Curious to who was calling him and hoping to God that it wasn't Lev, he checked it. 'Fuck'
"Hello, oba-san!" He quickly answered. On the other side of the phone, you could hear a woman laughing.
"Drop the san, Morisuke! I'm your family!"
"Oba?"
"You can call me by my name, you know?"
"Acca" Yaku smiled and called his aunt by her real name. He completely forgot he was supposed to meet her today. She came all of this way to Tokyo to see him and his idiot ass forgot to pick her up!
"By the way, Morisuke, where are you?"
"Uh, I'm 5 minutes away, oba!" He lied through his teeth. His aunt sighed.
"Acca, Morisuke, Acca. And okay, I'm outside of the train station!" Yaku hung up and took a run for it. The train station was 15 minutes away, if he took a shortcut it would be 100 minutes. After that, if he started sprinting half of the way, he could make it in time. All of a sudden, he felt his phone buzz again. He didn't bother to check it, already knowing it was Kuroo or Lev.
He stopped wasting time and began running. He also kept ignoring the constant buzzing in his pocket. Sighing and trying to run faster, he was breathing harder and harder.
Only 5 minutes away from the station, Yaku realized he was going to be 2 minutes or so late.
"Morisuke! Hello, dear!!" A lovely voice was heard in the distance. Yaku smiled to himself, he arrived on time.
"Hi, A-Acca!" He was gasping for air, clenching his fists tightly. The woman grinned and affectionately pet his hair. She was taller than Yaku, around Inuoka's height. She had brown chocolate hair tied in a bun. Warm hazel eyes were filled with love for her nephew. She was dressed in a red pleated skirt and a black blouse, along with a red jacket. She had her yellow purse (Yaku got her that purse for Christmas last year) on her shoulder and her phone in her hand. She looked very young for her age, Yaku was proud of his fucking cool aunt.
Acca spun around.
"Look! It's your teams' colors! Red and black!" As usual, Acca was interested in supporting her nephew's team every time she came. She seemed proud of herself, Yakku laughed and hugged Acca.
"I see! How are you, Acca?" He questioned politely, taking her luggage and carrying it. For a second, he forgot the problems that were troubling him just minutes ago.
"I'm great! I met a wonderful boy on the train." She explained, putting her phone in her purse. Yaku raised an eyebrow.
"Really? How was he?" He questioned.
"He was very respectful, he fell asleep on my shoulder." She laughed, gesturing with her shoulder towards him." He also had very memorable orange hair." Yaaku stopped.
'Orange hair? Hmm......Nah.'
"You okay, dear?" She snapped her fingers in front of his eyes. Yaku shook his head.
"Yeah.." Before he could sigh, his phone buzzed again. He tried hard to ignore it but his aunt wasn't having it.
"Morisuke, why aren't you answering your phone?" Acca asked Yaku. Yaku grimaced.
"Uhm, no reason."
"It's disrespectful to do that, Yaku." He stiffened. His aunt was not a person to call him by the family name. He nervously laughed.
"Answer it." He sighed. Damn it.
"Yaku!" Lev exclaimed, sighing with relief. He had a knot in his throat afraid that something happened to his senpai. Hinata shushed him to hear what Yaku was saying.
"Hey" Dammit, Hinata's plan was going off its route. Yaku didn't sound too happy. Kuroo eyed him with an accusatory glare but the ginger ignored him like a pro.
"Hello, Yaku-san!" Before Yaku responded, they all agreed Lev should do the talking. It was their feelings, not Hinata's or Kuroos or Kenmas. Lev was trembling slightly, no one saw it except for Kenma and Hinata. They chose to not say anything though.
Hinata still remembers when he confessed to the Nekoma captain, that he was a shaking mess. The night before he was encouraged by his whole ass team to confess. (Even Kenma told him he should do it). Hinata gets all red in the face when thinking about it. At least he managed to confess before Kuroo. (which he teases his boyfriend with).
"What do you need, Lev?" The libero asked with a very 'i'm done with you' voice. Lev gulped loudly. Hinata was starting to feel a bit sorry for the teen.
"Uh, hahaha, well, you know.." Kuroo facepalmed. He got in front of the first year and began gesturing with his hands. Kenma understood what he was trying to say but Lev didn't, unfortunately. Hinata got enough of it and whispered in Lev's ear.
'ask him out, you damn idiot!' Lev, finally, understood and quickly regained his senses.
"Lev?" Yaku spoke again.
"OH! yEs! Can y-you meet m-me in front of the, um, uhhhhh, gym?" Kuroo facepalmed, again. Now, Hinata joined him. Kenma and Inuoka flinched at how hard they slapped themselves. (Kenma thinks he saw a red mark on Kuroo's forehead)
Yaku sighed, which was heard by all of the people there.
"When?" Lev grinned whilst still shaking. Hinata and Inuoka were giving him a thumbs up.
"Now?" From the other side, you could hear Yaku talking with someone. They were arguing about something. In the end, Yaku sighed and gave in.
"Fine." Lev jumped and high-fived Hinata and Inuoka. The phone was about to fall but luckily, Kuroo caught it. Realizing he forgot that Yaku was still on the line, he immediately snatched the phone from his captain.
"Thank you, Yaku-san! See you!"
"Yeah... See you." And with that, Yaku hung up. Lev was buzzing with energy but got hit by Kuroo on the head.
"What the fuck?!" Lev cursed. Kuroo grumbled.
"The gym?! Seriously?" Hinata interrupted him and Kenma was thinking about how he could hide somewhere and continue playing his game. He was not looking forward to listening to Lev and Yaku's mushy shit.
"Oh, knock it off, Tetsuro. I confessed to you in the bathroom." Hinata said. Kuroo continued muttering under his breath.
"Yeah, but that was different." Hinata snorted and hugged his boyfriend's arm.
"No, it wasn't." Lev was shaking again. Inuoka saw this first.
"I don't think you're helping him, guys." He said, rubbing his neck. Kenma went to him. He wasn't about to let Lev back out when he just had to endure this damn drama.
"Stop it, Lev. You'll be fine." The only problem was, that he had no idea how to calm people down before they were about to confess to their crush. Yes, he helped Shoyo to confess to his best friend but even then, the only words he could manage were 'you'll be okay. Not the best choice of words for people like Lev and Hinata.
"Kenma-sannnnn."
"Stop calling me that." This boy couldn't understand that he didn't like the honorifics, couldn't he?
After calming Lev down, which, fortunately, Hinata managed to do along with Inuoka in only a few minutes. They were close to the gym so Lev sprinted there with the others following close behind. (Hinata could've run faster but he didn't want Yaku to see him).
In front of the Nekomas High gym, Hinata gathered everyone except Lev and hid them in the bushes. Kuroo was speechless.
"Really, Shoyo?"
"Yes.. now shush." Kuroo just sighed and got himself comfortable and gathered Hinata in his arms. Kenma ignored their PDA.
Inuoka: I'm so single :')
Lev was sweating bullets, playing with fingers, and swinging back and forth. In the distance, Hinata saw Yaku with a woman? She seemed familiar.....
'Acca-san!' Luck was on their side, Yaku got in front of Lev before Acca could catch up to him. Yaku was still carrying her luggage. Hinata couldn't hear well what the two were saying but he tried waving to Acca and she saw him! She winked at him and approached them.
"Hello, ma'am!" Inuoka whisper-screamed. Kuroo also gave her a polite hello while still clinging to Hinata.
"Hello" Kenma bowed slightly. Acca smiled at them
"Kuroo, your Shoyo's boyfriend?" Acca questioned. Of course, she knew everyone on the team, having visited before.
"Yep." Kuroo answered, popping the 'p'. Inuoka interrupted their conversation and pointed toward Lev and Yaku.
"Guys, guys! Look!" This got their attention. Hinata smiled.
"Yaku-san? What's with the luggage?" Lev questioned. Yaku grumbled, dropping the bags in his hands.
"They're my aunts."
"She's not here though?" Looking around and seeing no one, Yaku sighed. Of course, after explaining to Acca that Lev was his crush, she was eager to see him as her nephew's boyfriend. Acca also mentioned that she will let him confess first, dammit. How is he going to do that right now? It must be so awkward.
"I like you, Yaku-san!" Lev bowed and extended his arms where he had a box of chocolate. (Bet ya don't know where those came from. It was magic. ;))
'What?'
"What?" Lev was the color of strawberries. 'Lev liked him?' His brain was rebooting itself.
"I understand if you don't like me, it's completely fine! I just wanted to tell you because I couldn't hold it any longer and---" Lev kept on rambling and Yaku got enough of it.
He grabbed Lev by his shirt and kissed him. Words weren't his forte so he hoped Lev could understand his feelings just by this kiss. He closed his eyes and wrapped his arms around the green-eyed boy. Lev was surprised but he kissed back nonetheless.
"Does that answer your question?" Yaku asked. Lev played innocent.
"Not really, could you do it again?" He smiled, pointing to his lips.
"You idiot." Yake pecked his lips. Lev was happy, he was radiating happiness. He swept Yaku off his feet and spun him around.
"THIS IS MY BOYFRIEND!" Yaku would be annoyed by the use of Lev's stupid height, but he couldn't do anything besides laugh.
"Boyfriend?" He asked. Lev smiled.
"Well, do you want to be?" Yaku nodded and Lev was so happy he could scream again.
"FUCK YEAH! YOU DID IT!" was heard from a distance, scaring the shit out of both Yaku and Lev. The taller put the 3rd year down.
There stood Hinata and Inuoka jumping up and down, Kuroo smiling at them along with Acca. Kenma chuckled. Yaku got red.
"THAT'S WHERE YOU WENT?" He pointed at Acca, she only laughed in response. She came to them and hugged both boys.
"Congrats, Morisuke!" Lev smirked proudly. Yaku muttered 'thanks'.
Kenma and Inuoka also congratulated them. Afterward, it was Kuroo's and Kenma's turn.
"I think I deserve a thank you, to be honest." Kuro laughed at his boyfriend.
"Whatever you say."
"Thank you, Hinata!" Lev hugged the redhead. Hinata was proud, not only of himself but of Lev. They laughed together.
Yaku and Kuroo smiled at their first years, fist-bumping.
