Work Text:
the usual smell of sweat and sound of volleyballs hitting the ground was all around the gym as kageyama set the ball for hinata like always.
“coming” hinata said jumping a bit higher than usual but hitting the ball over the net. he lost balance and ended up hitting the ground and falling on his but which made kageyama giggle mockingly.
“well shit…”the orange haired guy said trying to get up from the ground, he hit his head a bit and felt quite dizzy and couldn’t see kageyamas face fully.
“tobio?” he said his voice sounding weak enough for kageyama to realise that it might be a bit worse than his usual injuries. hinata stood up finally and took kageyamas hand and looked at him feeling sick.
“i think i’m gonna be fi-“ he said sounding everything but convincing. tobios face dropped when his teammate lost consciousness and nearly fell to the ground again.
“shit shoyo.”kageyama said his voice softening a bit. that was the last thing hinata heard before everything went dark slowly.
kageyamas perspective:
i swear he needs to be more careful, i cant do this anymore. now i have an injured asshole on my watch, suga sent me to the changing rooms and i had to carry this fragile asshole so he’d be safe. how cringe.
hes lying there still unconscious with a red spot on his forehead probably from hitting he’s head. damn he still looks cool even though he’s so stupid, fuck he’s pretty. what am i even saying..? that’s normal to think about your best friend right? mhm, it probably is. he stirs awake his breath slowly quickening, i didn’t even realise at first. i was staring at him, how weird?
“tobio?” he says looking at me in a way that makes me concerned and before thinking i push him back to laying position so he wouldn’t hurt himself again.
“what the.. what’s that about kage?” he says not being able to protest because of his weakness. i stare into his eyes before snapping out of it and looking away realising how pathetic i actually am. he’s my best friend, also i kinda hate him.. don’t i?
“nothing, stupid you need to rest don’t get up” i say maybe a bit too harsh because his face turns a bit numb. shit i didn’t mean to make him feel like that. it feels awkward but somewhat right, hinata started looking around the changing room instead of looking at me but i can’t stop looking at him taking in all his features. his orange hair is messed up and greasy but still he looks.. good?
“i’ll get you an ice pack.” i say trying to sound numb and casual. he sits up making me turn back, i wanted to start telling him lay back but he talked first and it made me sit back down silently.
“tobio, don’t leave. i don’t need an ice pack.” he said sounding a bit down which is the reason i didn’t just tell him to wait and left. “i feel much better actually” i sit closer and looked at his wound to make sure he’s not lying to me. i touched his forehead when i actually realised how close i was to him, and that made me feel.. weird. in a good way. what the actual fuck is happening to me? i don’t like him… do i? he’s a boy that’s weird, i never thought of anyone like this before, not a guy not a girl.
“shoyo..” i whined out already cringing at myself, a sudden impulse got me as a pulled him closer. i wanted to kiss him, so badly. i never admitted this to myself ever. our lips almost touch when i realise how weird this actually is and i pulled back basically jumping up from my seat.
“im gonna.. get that ice pack.” i say not being able to look at him and i feel my eyes watering.
