Lost in Translation

Summary:

Yoichi lost his translation earbuds and has to deal with two days without understanding Kaiser's teasing. It was supposed to be a good thing.

Part of my contribution to this year Kaisagi week :)

Notes:

English is not my first language, please bare with me. Also my first time posting on Ao3, I don't even know what I'm doing.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

He didn't know how he lost his translators earbuds, they weren't supposed to fall off his ears, but when he woke up that day, he just could find them anywhere. So he told Ego, it would take two days, but he would be getting new ones, pros of being in Blue Lock.

However, that still left him with one problem, until then, he would be able to understand the Bastard Munchen team, especially Noa. That was a downer, but he would have to make it. Kurona offered to lend him one of his earbuds, but it just didn't sit right with him, he lost them, so he should face the consequences by himself. Instead, he asked Kurona to let him know what Noa said about training.

To his surprise, going through his day without being able to communicate with the German team wasn't that hard. Sure, sometimes he would have to look to his teammates to make sure he was doing things right, but other than that, he was handling it. Apparently, he wasn't that close to the Bastard Munchen, they weren't hostile anymore, but they weren't friendly either, so he was just used to only interacting with Blue Lock members. Except for one person.

"Yoichi, ich wusste nicht, dass man in der Ausbildung noch unfähiger sein kann [Yoichi, I didn't know you could be more useless in training]". That voice was annoying even without knowing what he was saying.

Kurona was nearby, so he turned towards him and made a face as to say "what does he want?". He simply shaked his head and answered: "You don't want to know".

He must give his friend the credits. He was right. Why would he want to know what an annoying asshole as Michale Kaiser was bothering him about when he wasn't forced to understand him? 

So he decided to just give Kaiser the must "Fuck off" look he could make and turn his back to him and leaving with Kurona, hoping he would get the message.

He didn't.

Although everyone in the team knew that Yoichi couldn't understand them (some of them were nice enough to try and sing for him during practice instead of ignoring him), apparently, Kaiser didn't get the memo and kept insisting on talking to him. Most times, his friends would intervene (he got an idea what that bastard was saying by that) and other times he would catch Yoichi on his own and pester him.

"Du verstehst nicht, was ich sage, oder? [You really don't undestand what I say, don't you?]"

Just watching him come close, had Isagi sprinting in the other direction.

"Wohin gehst du, Yoichi? Hast du Zeit zum Bummeln? [Where are you going, Yoichi? Do you have time to loaf around?]"

"Das war ein lausiger Spielzug. Bist du sicher, dass du weißt, wie man Fußball spielt? [That was a lousy play, are you sure you know how to play soccer?]"

Yoichi didn't need a translator to know what he was saying, just that smug smirk was enough context.

"Sie sollten trinken, wenn Sie nicht ohnmächtig werden wollen [You should drink if you don't want to pass like an idiot]".

"Hätten Sie 0,07 Sekunden früher geschossen, hätten Sie ein gutes Tor erzielt. [If you had shot 0.07 seconds earlier, you would have scored a good goal]".

"Du siehst süß aus, wenn du so die Stirn runzelst. [You look cute when you frown like that]".

At his wits' end, that son of a bitch was about to give him a migraine, Yoichi turned around abruptly and pushed Kaiser by his shoulders against a wall. The latter one opened his eyes wide, afraid that by some miracle he managed to get that last one. 

"You fucking asshole, I don't know what you have with me, but leave me the fuck alone", Yoichi's didn't have his earbuds, but Kaiser had his.

A vein almost popped out of Yoichi's head when the surprise in the other’s face morphed into amusement. That wasn't a good sign. With one swift motion, Kaiser turned their positions, and Yoichi would have hit his head by the suddenness, had the other boy hadn’t cradled the back of his head with his hand. 

Still, the dizziness from the change of positions had Yoichi caught out of guard when Kaiser suddenly got too much in his personal space, their faces inches away from each other.

"Willst du wissen, warum ich dich so sehr störe? [Do you want to know why I bother you so much?]", Kaiser moved even closer to him, his mouth right next to his ear, whispering: "Denn das ist die Rache dafür, dass du dich nach einem Platz in meinen Gedanken sehnst und mich mit deiner Wildheit verzauberst [Because this is payback, for craving a place in my every thought and bewitching me with that fierceness of you]".

Kaiser moved a little bit to see Yoichi's face, he looked confused, as if trying to understand him. He wouldn't, so he was going to make the most of it while he could.

“Ich muss zugeben, Yoichi, du warst viel interessanter, als ich dachte. Ich mag Überraschungen [I gotta admit it, Yoichi, you were far more interesting than I thought you would be. I like surprises]”.

Yoichi tried to break free from Kaiser´s body. However, the latter one was a step ahead and held him by his waist with an almost bruising grip. A hiss left Yoichi’s lips, and the pain distracted him from the hand that crept up all the way to his face. With Kaiser’s hand keeping his chin up, he had no choice, but to look into those damn blue eyes.

“Sie haben mich die ganze Zeit über gut unterhalten. Ich denke, du verdienst eine Belohnung [You kept me well entertained the whole time. I think you deserve a reward ]”.

Yoichi was about to shove Kaiser off, when his breath got caught in warm lips. His brain stopped functioning. He didn’t know if he was confused, disgusted or angry. He just couldn’t concentrate on anything other than the heat that Kaiser was emitting. He was a little bit surprised. Okay, he was shocked by the kiss, also because it was tender, not what he was expecting from someone as Michael Kaiser.

“Du schmeckst so süß, wie ich dachte [You taste as sweet as I thought]”, Yoichi had to open his eyes (when did he close them?) when he heard that voice and the soft lips left his. "Sei weiterhin ein so unterhaltsames Hindernis in meinem Leben, Yoichi [Keep being such an entertaining obstacle in my life, Yoichi]".

Before he could process what happened, he was facing Kaiser’s departing back, leaving him confused and with a tingling feeling where their lips had connected.

He really needed his earbuds back.

Notes:

I'm more of a One-shot person, but I really love this trope, so maybe I would come back to this in the future.
It's been a while since I write anything that it's not school related, I hope it's not trash ._.
Anyway, thank you so much for reading, hope you enjoyed it.
