I want to win. I want to win. I need to win. I want to stay on the court. I want to always spike the ball. I want to win.

These words kept going through Hinata's head, his own voice saying it like a mantra as he jumps into the air, his arms swinging back like a bird taking flight. All eyes are on him but that's not what matters now. He jumps as high as he can, closing his eyes and swinging with all he has, knowing the ball is going to be there. Trusting that it will be there.

He opens his eyes at the last minute, right when he feels the ball in the palm of his hand, his whole face lighting up. He can see the other side. He's clear. There's no tall wall in his path. And just like that he hits the ball, his force stinging his hand as the ball hits the other court, giving Karasuno their final point.

"Yeah!" Hinata cheers, landing with ease next to the Kageyama who is doing his own cheer, their team cheering and yelling. It feels so good. Winning. And being able to spike the ball. Being able to score. And it's all thanks to their scary, yet annoyingly amazing setter.

"Hinata!" Tanaka runs over to the short red head, giving him a high five, which he gladly returns, loving the sting of it.

"Hinata!" He tenses when Kageyama yells his name, getting him to turn around to face the setter who has that weird wobbly smile on his face. It looks more like a grimace as he holds out his hand. Hinata blinks before he grins, holding out his hands for the setter to hit. And he does. Way too hard. "Ow! Don't hurt me idiot! Don't you know how to give a good high five?" Hinata complains, rubbing his hand. The hit hurt but the after sting isn't so bad.

"That was a good high five." Kageyama says with his usual irritated expression, his eyebrows furrowed. Hinata really believes they're frozen like that. He hasn't seen too many different expressions on this guy. He's either angry, irritated, grumpy or nothing. He's only really happy when he's playing in a game. That's when he's seen him do those scary smiles of his. "You're just a wimp."

"Am not! You're the wimp!" Hinata's eyebrow twitches, quickly flinching away when the setter reaches out to grab his head. Hinata has gotten better at dodging the setter's attacks. Hinata's irritation leaves him when he looks around and sees his team mates still cheering. He smiles before looking down at his hand that's red from his spiking. "We won."

Kageyama stares at him for a moment, that strange grimace coming on his face before he nods. "Yeah." There's a pause. His eyebrows furrow again. "Good job."

Hinata's eyes light up, his heart picking up speed and he grins. Getting complemented by the king, it means a lot. Just like it means a lot to everyone. Kageyama has really come around since the beginning. He's become a part of the team, watching everyone and judging the best tosses for each of them. Kageyama is still annoying but it's like he's gotten use to him. He can't read what Kageyama is thinking and most the time he can't predict how he'll act in certain situations but the one thing Hinata knows is that he will toss to him. He knows he can trust him.

After shaking the other team's hands and saying their good byes, Hinata wants nothing more than to go home and relax a bit. This was just a practice match in their gym but Hinata always plays his best. Everyone in the team does. They are exhausted.

Hinata finds himself waiting for Kageyama like he always does, waving at his team members as they go. He can still hear Tanaka shouting about the spike he did to their guardian who grins and talks about his saves. They've all gotten a lot better.

"You can go on without me." Hinata looks behind him to see Kageyama staring at him intently. When Hinata makes eye contact with him, those blue eyes shift away from him. "I can't walk back with you today. I'm staying after for tutoring."

"You're doing tutoring?" Hinata blinks.

"I can't get behind in my studies. There's a big test coming up. I'm not doing it for long." Kageyama adds as they walk out of the gym together. "I suggest you get into tutoring as well. If I need it, I know you need it."

"What's that suppose to mean?" Hinata glares. "My grades are fine thank you very much."

"Just last week you got a 54 on your math test-"
"H-How do you know that?" Hinata's cheeks heat up but he glares the best he can at the setter.

"I saw you showing your grade to Tanaka." Kageyama says causally. He's as observant as always. He's always watching him. Hinata feels like he can't blink without Kageyama knowing. But his observation skills are what make him an amazing setter.

"So you were creeping into our conversation." Hinata huffs.

"I wasn't creeping into your conversation, dumb ass. You were being loud in the club room. Everyone could hear you." Kageyama glares at him. "You need to study more. Do you want the school to get on you for your grades? They may try to get you to sit out for a bit if this keeps up. Shape up."

"Ughh I know! I'll do better on the next math exam!" Hinata grips his fists. "I'm not going to sit out. I'm going to keep being on the court. And you're going to keep tossing to me right?" Hinata grins over at Kageyama, that glare falling, those blue eyes holding something, maybe it's excitement. But he responds like he always does with a nod of his head, determination furrowing his brow.

"Yeah. So you better study more for your math test, dumb ass."

"I will!" Hinata puffs out his cheeks. Kageyama makes a sound like he's choking, getting Hinata to look at him. The raven haired male has his head turned away.

"You always make stupid faces."

"Hey! At least my face isn't scary-"

"How is it scary?"

"It's just your face! That's the best way to describe it." Hinata shakes his head, his choppy red hair moving with him.

"Whatever. I'm going to go to my tutoring session." Kageyama reached out to grab his head like he usually does. Hinata tenses, waiting for the pain but what comes is a soft pat on the head, his fingers getting tangled in his locks. Hinata looks at Kageyama with confusion from the gentle touch. The taller male just stares at him for a long time, his expression strange before he lets go of him. He nods his head and turns and walks away.

That was...weird. Hinata was expecting pain. What he got was something unexpected. A nice pat on the head, and the ruffing of hair. The setter has never done that before. The look on the setter's face after he did it told Hinata that he thought it was weird too. Hinata questions the slight flush of his face but he doesn't go much farther than that.

Lately the atmosphere between Hinata and Kageyama has been strange. He doesn't know how to explain it. It's not like they've had any serious fights or anything. Yeah they bicker back and forth but they've always done that. One day Kageyama just came into to school and something had changed. The setter always did stare at him but now his stares are more intense. He's also around a lot more and they've even hung out after school, which was to finish up some homework but still. Kageyama has been more generous with the compliments lately and with the high fives. Hinata's not the smartest person in the world, but he can tell there's been some sort of change.

As long as it doesn't affect their team work, then Hinata doesn't mind. It feels like they're starting to get closer. It feels like Kageyama wants to get closer. Or maybe Hinata is over thinking everything.

Hinata starts to walk back, his legs arching from all the jumping he did. He knows he's going to feel it tomorrow.

"A-Are you sure about this?" Hinata stops at that voice. He tilts his head and walks over, peering around one of the school buildings. His eyes widen when he sees Yamaguchi against the wall, Tsukishima trapping him with two arms on either side of his head. Hinata's heart starts to pick up speed and he opens his mouth, are they fighting-

"Shut up Yamaguchi. Everyone is gone." Tsukishima's voice is indifferent as always but there's a bit of a strain to it. Whatever Hinata was about to say is taken from him when he sees the blonde lean in, kissing the trembling man on the lips.

The reaction is immediate. Yamaguchi relaxes, his shoulder slumping as he leans into the kiss, his eyes slipping shut. He lets out a small groan, clinging to the taller man's shirt. The kiss quickly deepens, becoming something desperate and needy. Tsukishima's hands fall down, grabbing the smaller's waist, pulling him against his body. Hinata is speechless, all he can do is stare. What snaps him out of it is Yamaguchi who suddenly opens his eyes, those brown orbs locking with his, his face so flushed.

Hinata's face catches on fire and he quickly runs off, feeling as if he's just seen something he really wasn't suppose to see. A feeling of guilt and fear turning his stomach at being caught watching. Hinata was just surprised. Those two kissing? They've always been close but Hinata never thought they were close like that. And Tsukishima always tells Yamaguchi to shut up. But the kiss he witnessed just now, It wasn't sloppy and there was no surprise. They both got comfortable quick with the kiss.

Hinata's heart is beating so fast. All these questions are swirling around in his head. Are they together? How did the kiss feel? If they are together, why hide it? It's none of Hinata's business. He knows that. But he can't stop thinking about it.

He's never seen two guys kiss before. It was strange, seeing the Stoic Tsukishima kissing the smaller man, making his face hot. It made his stomach feel weird and his chest tight.

Hinata hasn't been one for romance. He's been too focused on volley ball. That's all he wants to do really. That and spend time with his team mates. But after seeing that kiss between two of his team mates...Hinata can't help to wonder if he can have something like that. Maybe he's just curious. He always thought romance would get in the way of volley ball but if Tsukishima and Yamaguchi are together, They haven't let it affect their performance.

Even if Hinata wants someone to kiss, the issue is who does he want to share a kiss with? There's a lot of cute girls in his classes but they might not look twice at him and if they did, Hinata knows they would want a lot of his time and Hinata can't do that.

Hinata shakes his head, running to his bike. Romance isn't for him. Hinata feels his stomach churn at just thinking about asking a girl to be his girl friend. He'd never be able to work up the courage and he knows they wouldn't last long anyway. His partner would have to be as into volleyball as he is. There's not too many girls like that.

But there's a guy like that.

Hinata slaps his cheeks when they heat up, he can not believe that thought crossed his mind. That kiss must have affected him more than he thought. Hinata glances behind him, making sure Tsukishima isn't running after him. He's hoping Yamaguchi didn't see him. He doesn't want things to be awkward and he doesn't want Tsukishima beating him up either. Hinata can't believe that guy has a romantic bone in him. Who would want to date him? Ugh.

When he doesn't see anyone he gets on his bike and rides away, the wind caressing his face as his mind keeps drifting back to the kiss he just witnessed. Seeing it in his head. A tall man hovering over a short one, holding his body close as he kissed his lips, their chests pressed together. The image of Yamaguchi and Tsukishima starts to warp and instead of his two team mates, it becomes Hinata pinned against the wall, face flushed as Kageyama leans in, kissing him fiercely, gripping onto his waist-

"Ahhh!" Hinata's body stiffens, his arms doing a spasm causing him to turn the bike, running right into a lamp post, hitting his head with a 'gah!' Hinata falls off his bike, landing on his side. He winces as he rubs his forehead, feeling a knot forming. Hinata takes deep breaths, his heart racing, a bead of sweat falling down the side of his face. What was that just now? Did he really just...

Hinata covers his face with his hands. Kageyama would kill him if he knew he thought about kissing him. He would never let him live it down. Hinata waves air into his face, trying to calm down. That wasn't anything. Just a strange thought. It's because he's all jittery from seeing that kiss. Not because he wants to kiss the annoying setter.

But...

Hinata gets back up, picking his bike up and hopping back on, riding more carefully now, his lips in a tight line and his eyebrows furrowed.

He has to question the fluttering of his heart when he thought of Kageyama's lips touching his.


"What's wrong with you dumb ass?" Kageyama gives him this fierce stare, those blue eyes narrowing as he looks over at Hinata who is just standing still, holding the volleyball tight to his chest.

Hinata flinches, being brought out of his thoughts as he looks at the setter. Hinata remembers the kiss he thought about last night and all the thoughts he had about it last night. He feels his cheeks starting to heat so he looks away, fiddling with the ball. "Oi." Kageyama's voice drips with irritation. "I asked you a question."

"I didn't get much sleep last night." Hinata mumbles and that's the truth. He didn't.

"I know that much. You have bags under your eyes." Kageyama is quiet for a moment but Hinata can still feel those intense blue eyes on him. "So what's up? What's got you all worried?"

"Um..." Hinata can't look at him. His heart is beating faster. Ugh why did he have to see that kiss? Now it's gotten weird ideas in his head. Hinata can't just tell Kageyama that he's been thinking about kissing him and he's been really stressed about it and confused. Kageyama would kill him. Telling Kageyama about his thoughts has to be the scariest thing he'd ever have to do. Hinata rather avoid that. Besides, if it's affecting him like this, he wouldn't want Kageyama to get creeped out. Then he might not send him tosses. The system they have might get messed up.

"Spit it out." Kageyama growls. Hinata squeezes the ball, his eyes shifting this way and that as he thinks of an excuse or at least for something to say.

"None of your business." Hinata huffs as he starts to throw the ball in the air, giving him something to do. Hinata swallows when he can feel the air change and he risks a glance over at the setter. He tenses when he sees his face scrunched up.

"It is my business if it's going to mess you up in a game."

Hinata knows he has a point. If something was bothering Kageyama, he would want to know but this is different.

"It's not going to mess me up in a game, so it's not your business." Hinata mumbles but he's starting to tremble when Kageyama takes a step closer. He quickly drops the ball and starts to move back. "L-Let's just take it easy-"

Hinata blinks, his shoulder tensing when he looks behind Kageyama, seeing Tsukishima staring at him intently, a glare on his face. The setter who was closing in on him stops, turning around quickly when he sees the change in Hinata, spotting Tsukishima glaring at him. The blonde locks eyes with Kageyama before he goes back to training with Yamaguchi. The shorter is flushing, trembling slightly, looking nervous.

Hinata swallows, getting pale. Did they see him? Do they know? Is that why he's glaring like that or was that Tsukishima being Tsukishima?

"Did something happen between you and Tsukishima." Kageyama looks back at Hinata, getting the red head to frown.

"Sort of." Hinata rubs his arm, frowning when he sees Tsukishima glaring at him. Kageyama is picking up on the change in atmosphere because he's soon by Hinata's side, staring at Tsukishima.

"What did you do?"

"Why do you assume I did something first?" Hinata huffs.

"So he did something to you?" Kageyama's body stiffens, if only slightly.

"No...I just-" Hinata starts, looking over at Kageyama, his eyes widen in surprise when he sees how Kageyama is looking at Tsukishima, a deep scowl on his face.

"He's coming this way."

Hinata squeaks when indeed the tall blonde is coming his way, his glare has fallen to an indifferent expression. Hinata has the urge to run, to back up but he stands his ground, feeling somewhat safer with Kageyama right by his side.

"Hinata, can I talk to you for a moment?" Tsukishima smiles sweetly but it's a smile of a predator

"Uh um...I-I..." Hinata trips over his words, fear turning his stomach.

"Talk." Kageyama states firmly, narrowing his eyes at the blonde when he sends him a sharp look. "He's right here. Talk."

"Oi! What's up with you guys?" Tanaka shouts from across the room, raising his eyebrow at the growing tension over there.

"Tsukishima and Kageyama stop fighting." The captain who was working with Suga states firmly, stopping what he's doing to turn on them. The gray haired setter watches the three carefully, a frown on his lips.

"I just want to speak with Hinata alone for a moment." Tsukishima's words seem to get everyone's attention. They're all staring at them now. Hinata frowns, rubbing his arm.

"You've never had to speak with him alone." Kageyama's voice is accusing.

"Kageyama let Tsukishima speak with Hinata." Suga calls over in that gentle voice, looking between the two. "Tsukishima don't take too long. We are still in the middle of practice."
"Tsk." Kageyama clicks his tongue and he doesn't move from his spot.

"Come on Hinata, follow me." Tsukishima hums as he walks pass him and towards the door out of the gym. Hinata takes a deep breath before he follows after him. If Tsukishima tries to grab him, he's going to run as fast as he can. He doesn't want to get hurt.

Kageyama starts to follow after them, Tanaka having to grab him so he doesn't. Kageyama isn't the only one who is staring at them intently or who looks confused about what's going on. The whole team is watching them leave the gym together.

Hinata swallows when he's out of the gym, alone with the giant as he brings him over to the side of the building. Before Hinata can think of what to say or do, Tsukishima turns on him, looking down at him with that fierce look.

"You saw us last night." He states. It wasn't a question. He knows.

Hinata nods his head, trembling. "Yeah...i-i'm sorry! I just heard your voices and then I saw...that and I was t-taken off guard!" Hinata starts to fling his arms around, trying to explain himself.

"Have you told anyone?"

"Huh?...No I haven't." Hinata calms slightly watching as Tsukishima lets out some air in a sigh.

"He'll be relieved." Tsukishima says more to himself before he locks eyes with Hinata. "Keep it to yourself. If I've found that you've told anyone, we'll have problems."

"I won't tell anyone!" Hinata shakes his head.

"Good. Then we're done talking-" Tsukishima starts to walk pass him. Hinata can't stop himself.

"Wait!" Hinata flinches when Tsukishima stops, turning to look at him with his eyebrow raised. "Um...Well...are you and Yamaguchi together?" Hinata rubs the back of his head.

"And if we are?" Tsukishima narrows his eyes.

"There's nothing wrong with that! I was just curious. I didn't expect it, that's another reason I was surprised. And I was wondering...if being with someone hurts your performance in volleyball?" Hinata fidgets.

"It doesn't hurt my performance. There have been times that Yamaguchi has been off." Tsukishima thinks for a moment, seeing Hinata's eyes glazed over in thought.

"How did you two start dating?"

"Long story." He waves him off. "I don't feel like sharing it with you either-"

"How does it feel to kiss someone?" Hinata blurts out, his face heating up to a dark shade of red when Tsukishima looks at him in surprise.

"Oh my. As expected, you haven't kissed anyone have you?" Tsukishima covers his amused smile, getting Hinata even more flustered.

"Y-Yeah so what!" Hinata tries to defend himself lamely, glaring at Tsukishima who laughs, getting his eyebrow to twitch.

"I'm not going to have this conversation with you. Just keep what you saw to yourself." Tsukishima waves him off, trying to walk off again-

"Why do you want to keep it secret?"

"It's not the team's business. I have a feeling they would have an issue with two members dating. Even if they don't, what I do with Yamaguchi is my business and mine alone." And that's that. He walks back into the gym. Hinata frowns. He was hoping he could have gotten some more information but he didn't get anything. Maybe he should talk to someone else about this? Someone who doesn't' dislike him as much. The first person that comes to mind is Suga.

When Hinata walks into the gym, everyone is looking at him. Kageyama's stare is intense as always and he finds himself staring back. He walks towards him and holds out his hands, singling him to throw him the ball.

"What he say to you?" Kageyama serves him the ball, Hinata receiving it with ease, sending it back to him to hit back.

"He just told me off a little." Hinata tries to think of something that seems believable, receiving the ball again.

"You came in with a knot on your head." Kageyama points out. "Did he do that?" He hits the ball back.

"No. I hit by head on a lamp post while heading home last night." Hinata receives, flushing at the memory.

"Stupid." Kageyama grunts, getting Hinata to glare at him. "You were probably spacing out again."

"Yeah." Hinata's eyes shift over to Tsukishima who is talking to Yamaguchi, the shorter sighing in relief. Hinata flinches when Kageyama spikes the ball a bit harder this time, the ball hitting his arms and going off the side.

"Pay attention." Kageyama snaps, seeming more irritated.

"I was! You hit it too hard." Hinata snaps back, running over to get the ball.

"It doesn't matter how hard I hit the ball you should be able to receive it!"

They go back and forth, Kageyama more angry than usual. Hinata can tell by how hard he keeps hitting the ball and the glare that seems to be permanently on his face. He's all mad because Hinata wouldn't tell him what's up. It's not like he can now. The giant devil told him not to.

"That's enough." The captain once again gets between them. The captain seems slightly irritated himself, tense. "Hinata practice with Suga. Kageyama, you practice tosses with Asahi."

Hinata frowns. He didn't get to hit his toss but he brightens back up as he runs over to Suga, happy to get away from the king if just for a little bit. Being so close and arguing with him was making him feel strange. It shouldn't though. Nothing has changed. Hinata can feel the setter's eyes on him as he runs off before he goes to start practicing with the others.

"I'm ready to spike!" Hinata cheers, smiling at Suga.

"You're always ready." Suga chuckles. They go back and forth, Suga throwing him tosses that he hits with ease. He doesn't' get the same satisfaction out of hitting Suga's tosses as he does with Kageyama's. The same thrill he gets or how excited isn't the same. He still enjoys Suga's tosses though. He loves hitting the ball. "Is something bothering you Hinata?" Suga questions when he swings, missing the ball after an image of Tsukishima and Yamaguchi come back to him, making him feel warm and worried that another image would be close behind. The one with Kageyama kissing him instead.

"Sort of." Hinata rubs his arm, looking over at Suga. Those eyes are kind and there's no judgment. He finds himself speaking before he can think. "Have you ever kissed someone?"

The reaction is immediate. Suga stares at him with wide eyes before he flushes, those eyes averting away from him. "W-What's with this all of a sudden?"

"I'm just curious is all about how a kiss feels." Hinata flushes from embarrassment. He knows most people have probably had their first kiss already. He wonders if everyone on the team has kissed someone "Don't tell anyone I asked you this." Hinata fidgets with his fingers.

Suga seems to get himself together but the blush hasn't left his cheeks. "I-I won't I was just a little taken off guard." He takes a deep breath before he smiles slightly. "It's hard to explain how a kiss feels like. It depends on the person you're kissing-"

"How many people have you kissed?" Hinata's eyes widen.

"N-Not many!" Suga waves his hands frantically. "I've mainly been focused on my studies and volley ball so...not many." Suga sighs when Hinata nods his head in understanding. "Some people are better at kissing and then there are people that you really like. So even if they don't kiss well, it feels good." Suga rubs the back of his head.

"So kissing feels good?" Hinata thinks about it. He's heard other guys talking about making out and for the most part he knew that kissing felt good but he's never really been interested till now.

"If you like the person. It can be unpleasant if you don't really like them." Suga admits. He stares at Hinata for a moment before smiling. "What's with the sudden interest? Do you have someone in mind Hinata? If you don't mind me asking."

"Uh..." Kageyama smile flashes through his mind, the creepy one and he shakes his head quickly. "Nope. Not really."

"Oh." Suga tilts his head. He glances behind him before he looks at Hinata again. "Did something happen between you and Tsukishima? He's looking at you a bit more than usual." Hinata glances behind them to see that indeed, Tsukishima is staring at them. And to his discomfort so is Kageyama. Both have a glare but they're both different kinds of glares. It's weird and Hinata certainly doesn't like it.

"Um no. Nothing r-really." Hinata tries to give the blonde a sign that he's not telling Suga about what he saw so he gives him a thumbs up. This gets Kageyama to glare back at the blonde and the blonde to raise his eyebrow. Now Kageyama looks even more irritated. "Let's keep practicing."

"Okay." Suga looks like he has more questions but he doesn't ask them. He just tosses the ball to Hinata and he hits every signal one, ignoring those piercing blue eyes that sneak one last glance before Kageyama is focusing on his own tosses.


"Good practice everyone!" Ukai shouts, grinning as all the young men pant, sweating from all the effort they put in.

"Yeah good practice!" The Daichi shouts in unison, just as Tanaka is jumping up and down about the last spike he did.

As the team members start saying their goodbyes, Hinata finds himself looking for Kageyama, turning on his heel to find him- The two bump into each other, coming to a quick halt. Hinata stares up at the other, hating how high he has to look up but he won't let that get him down. He tries to look at him without his mind going into any weird places as well. "Are you going to walk home with me today?"

"I have tutoring today as well." Kageyama says reluctantly.

"Two days in a row?" Hinata raises his eyebrow before shaking his head, a grin twisting his lips. "Kageyama if you're scared about racing me to the bike racks you should just say so-"

"I'm not scared to race you idiot! I'll beat you any time of the day!" Kageyama shouts, getting worked up easily. At least when it comes to Hinata. He's quick to raise his voice. "But no. I really have tutoring."

"Blah." Hinata sticks out his tongue, taking note of how the raven haired male stares at his tongue blankly before locking eyes with him. Such an intense look it gets Hinata to shudder and back off a little. "Uh Kageyama? You feeling alright?"

The setter blinks. He quickly looks away. "Yeah." and with that he runs off. Hinata watches him go, tilting his head at that reaction. That was...weird. He was expecting Kageyama to get all mad at him and start yelling about this and that but he got all quiet instead. He looked like he wanted to kill him.

"It's annoying how obvious it is." Hinata glances over at Tsukishima who is speaking loud enough for him to hear but is talking to Yamaguchi who is chuckling.

"How obvious what is?" Hinata's eyebrows furrow at the two. He tries not to blush and he tries not to think of the position he saw these two in last night.

"If I tell you, that gets rid of all the fun." Tsukishima smirks.

"What are you talking about?" Hinata's eyebrows furrow when the blonde demon chuckles.

"I have a question for you." His face suddenly gets serious, getting Hinata to swallow. Those yellow eyes getting dark. "What were you talking about with Suga?"

"It didn't have anything to do with you." Hinata grumbles, crossing his arms. "I was just asking Suga a question." Hinata glares at the blonde when his eyes narrow. He doesn't feel like having to tell him that he asked Suga about kissing too. He wouldn't let him live it down. He'll probably start telling everyone he's never kissed any body. The blonde stares at him for a long moment before he smiles and it gives Hinata a chill.

"Come on Yamaguchi. Let's go. I'll see you tomorrow Shoyo." The blonde smiles sweetly. "We're going to have a lot of fun tomorrow."

And just like that he walks out with Yamaguchi, his partner questioning him just like Hinata is questioning him in his head. That...didn't sound good. And he called him by his first name. Something is up. The blonde demon is planning something. Why? Hinata isn't telling anyone his secret and he really did talk to Suga about something that didn't have anything to do with those two.

Hinata has been doing a good job with forgetting about it for the most part too. He's acting like he did something wrong.

Hinata sighs. He can't spend the night worrying about it. He's probably just trying to bother him. Hinata can tell he's still angry that he saw what happened last night. He's not sure why the blonde wants to keep it a secret but the fact that Hinata knows is getting the blonde irritated. It's not like he wanted to see that! Seeing that kiss has messed him up a lot!

Hinata walks to get his bike and once again while he's riding home, thoughts drift into his mind as the wind caresses his hair. The kiss he saw keeps popping into his head and then he sees things like Kageyama leaning over him, pinning him against the wall, kissing him deeply with those stoic lips-

Hinata almost hits a lamp post-again. He feels so warm and he shouldn't be getting warm thinking about the annoying king kissing him. Maybe he's just tired. Or maybe it's because Kageyama has been the main person he's hung out with for so long. He doesn't' really have that many girls that are friends. He has Yachi and she's cute but he doesn't have the urge to kiss her. He also knows that Yachi has a very big crush on Kiyoko so he wouldn't try anything anyway. Maybe that's why Kageyama is the one who comes to mind. Maybe he just needs to get out more.

If Hinata had thought of anyone else on the team kissing him, he knows it wouldn't bother him as much as it does when he sees the King kissing him. He'd probably be able to laugh off the other fantasy but he can't when it comes to Kageyama. He should be able to. He shouldn't let it affect him.

Crap, if he keeps thinking about it he'll end up dreaming about it. The more he thinks about it, the more awkward he's going to make things. Today was a little bit awkward between them and that's because every time Hinata would look at his setter, he'd see those lips and think about what they could do to him.

Maybe Hinata is just hitting puberty a little late. Maybe he just needs to have his first kiss and get it out of his system. He's been hearing about kisses and dating all his life. Maybe he just needs to experience a little bit of it.

The problem is with who. Hinata stops all thoughts of Kageyama looking at him with half lidded eyes, speaking in a husky voice as he grabs his chin, pulling their faces close. He stops that right away. It can't be Kageyama. He would kill him if he knew he even thought about this, as he said before.

Maybe he should try to flirt with some of the girls- Hinata flushes and shakes his head. He couldn't be so forward like that. Maybe he should give a girl flowers- no maybe that's too much? Hinata's head is starting to hurt and he hasn't even gotten to his math homework yet.

Hinata groans at the thought. Maybe Kageyama's tutoring will help him out enough that he can give Hinata some pointers. Exams are no fun. Math is no fun. So he'll get all the help he can get, even if it is from the king.

Hinata's thoughts soon go back to volleyball and everything is right with the world. But when he thinks about volleyball he can't help but to also think about the guy who sends him the awesome tosses. Hinata could play with Kageyama all day and hit his tosses. He loves to spike them. Loves it so much.

Hinata never ends up thinking about a girl he likes, or how to get a girl to like him, he spends the rest of his bike ride thinking about Kageyama and the game they just played. He doesn't even realize where his thoughts have drifted and what he's suppose to be thinking about.

Hinata would never admit this to anyone, but he's always excited to get up in the morning. He's excited about the club and playing volleyball but there's also a small part of him that is excited to see the setter who tosses him the balls.

Most the time all they do is fight but they can agree on a lot of things. Like volleyball. And they also seem to keep close to each other when ever they're in a room together or doing something. They're a set in their matches but it's like they're a set out of matches as well. Like they stay close unconsciously. Volleyball is on Hinata's mind 24/7, he's pretty sure it's on Kageyama's mind like that too. That's how Hinata explains their closeness. It's because of their need for volleyball and their drive to win.

There was nothing strange about their relationship before. Kageyama is his setter and he tosses the ball to Hinata. But now that he keeps thinking about kissing him, it's making that simple relationship complicated.

Hinata stops in front of his home, hitting his head on his bike and groaning. Why did he have to see that kiss?


"Ugh." Hinata groans as he peddles, his eyes half lidded from his lack of sleep. He couldn't get any proper rest. Every time he closed his eyes, either that kiss he witness was in his mind or it was Kageyama. They both made him feel warm and confused. When he tried to sleep he had a dream with Kageyama in it, and he was in the shower. Hinata had a dream about Kageyama in the shower. His black hair was slicked to his cheeks, his lips slightly parted as the water ran down his rippling back, falling down to his ass before sliding off those toned legs-

Hinata must be getting sick. Why the hell would he want to have a dream like that? Of Kageyama in the shower? What was the purpose of that?! Hinata woke up with his heart racing and he felt so hot and ashamed. He felt like a big pervert. The dream was so real, like Hinata was really spying on Kageyama taking a shower, being a peeping tom.

After that dream he couldn't go back to sleep. He was afraid of what else he would see, especially since he couldn't get Kageyama's body out of his head or those lips either so he ended up playing this video game all night to get his mind off of it. It worked but he had to sacrifice his sleep. Now he feels like shit.

He'll buy an energy drink or something. That's not the issue here. Hinata isn't sure he can even face Kageyama after having a dream like that. What would his team mate think?-

Hinata tenses when he looks up at the up coming bike rack. None other than Kageyama is standing next to the bike rack, hands in his pockets, a blank expression on his face. Those blue eyes lock with his soon after. Hinata feels his heart pick up speed, his face heats up when he remembers how Kageyama had looked in his dream. He quickly looks away, getting off his bike and putting his back towards the bike rack, looking down at his shoes. What's he doing here?

"What's up with you?" Kageyama's annoyed voice gets Hinata to look up when he locks up his bike. Kageyama's blue eyes narrow when Hinata flinches. "You look like shit."

"Oh jeez thanks." Hinata rolls his eyes, rubbing the crust off one of his eyes. "I feel like shit." Kageyama's eyes flash and he takes a step closer. Hinata steps back a bit. "What are you doing here so early in the morning?" It's Kageyama's turn to flinch. He glares forward. Hinata blinks before he tilts his head. "Were you waiting for me?" When Kageyama doesn't say anything, Hinata grins. "You wanted to walk with me to school huh-"

"Shut up." Kageyama growls, glaring at Hinata but that pale face has a bit of color to it. "You have a problem?"

"No." Hinata chuckles. "That makes me happy-" Hinata winces when that comes out. Crap. He said how he really felt. He is happy that Kageyama waited for him to come. Little things like this that Kageyama does sometimes, these little things that make Hinata think he doesn't completely dislike him, make him happy. Maybe a little more than they should, he's starting to realize.

Kageyama's eyes widen slightly and he stares at Hinata intently. It's getting way to awkward and Hinata can feel his face heating up from Kageyama just staring at him. Why doesn't he say something witty like always? Why doesn't he call him a dumb ass or something?

"I-I'll race you! I bet I can get to the school before you can!" Hinata challenges, trying to get those blue eyes off of him and to get away from this awkward atmosphere. He takes off running as fast as he can, his book bag bouncing behind him. Hinata is way too tired for this.

"Oi! Don't get a head start stupid!" Kageyama growls behind him before he takes off running. Hinata hates to admit it but Kageyama is fast. As fast as him and now he's right by his side, running with this warms swinging. Hinata grinds his teeth and picks up his speed, his body running on empty.

"You're just too slow! Isn't that what you say all the time?" Hinata can't help to smirk over at Kageyama who clicks his tongue. Kageyama is gaining ground on him and soon the setter is passing him, grinning slightly.

Hinata slows down, putting his hands on his knees to take deep breaths. He yawns, rubbing his eyes. He hates that he's going to lose to Kageyama. But he just can't right now. He needs to get an energy drink or take a nap.

"You're slow today." Kageyama stops running soon after Hinata did. He's not going to finish the race?

"Yeah. I'm just tired. I didn't get any sleep last night." Hinata yawns, walking up to Kageyama, the two boys walking together towards the school, this time like normal people and not maniacs.

"Why?"

"I was playing this video game." Hinata winces when Kageyama hits him on the back. "Ow!-"

"Dumb ass! Don't spend all night playing a video game. You better not let this affect your game in the club." Kageyama's eyes narrow. "Playing a game and not sleeping is going to mess you up. Don't you have any sense?"

"Ugh I know that but..." Hinata closes his eyes when he sees that soaking wet Kageyama in his dream, the water dripping off of him. "It's partly your fault." Hinata mumbles, glaring off to the side, his face heating up.

" Huh? My fault? I'm not the dumb ass who stayed up all night. How is it my fault?" Kageyama's face gets scary, his eyebrows furrowing and his lips turned in a scowl.

"Because." Hinata knows he can't blame him. It's not Kageyama's fault he's weird. He wants to blame this on Tsukishima but he knows better.

"Don't 'because' me." Kageyama grabs Hinata, turning him so they're face to face. "Say your reason properly-" He stops when he gets a look at his face. Hinata wonders if he's blushing, he hopes not. He flinches when Kageyama touches his forehead, leaning closer. "Oi. You're feeling warm. Did you get yourself sick?"

"I don't..." Hinata can't get over the fact that Kageyama is so close and that he can feel his breath on his face and he's leaning down and he's touching his face. Hinata's face gets hotter when he as the urge to just lean in and kiss Kageyama, to have his first kiss with the king. What's wrong with me?!

Kageyama gets this weird look on his face, his lips wobbly as he leans in. He's getting closer! And he keeps touching his face and it's not a mean touch. It doesn't hurt.

"You're getting warmer-" Kageyama starts but it's too much.

Hinata shoves Kageyama away when he fees like he might do something he would regret. This is his partner. This is his setter. Stop it. "Sorry but...don't touch me." Hinata turns and starts to walk, just waiting for Kageyama to run after him and beat the shit out of him for shoving him like that. He had to do it. If he had kissed Kageyama, that would make these weird feelings real. If he kissed him, Kageyama would know something is wrong with him. He might not want to toss to him anymore. He might be freaked out.

"Hinata." Kageyama's voice is surprisingly steady, not loud as he expected. Hinata finds himself stopping, but he doesn't look back at him. "I'll walk with you to the infirmary." Hinata's eyes widen when the setter walks till he's next to him.

"I don't need to go to the infirmary. I'm fine." Hinata averts his gaze when he feels those intense blue eyes on him. Kageyama stares at him for a long time before he sighs.

"Are you sure?" Hinata can't help to look at Kageyama then. He was expecting anger. Not concern. He raises his eyebrow at the strange look on Kageyama's face. It's not angry or anything. Just blank. But his blue eyes hold something that Hinata can't read. Hinata stares at him longer than he should, maybe he's trying to figure out what that look means, or maybe he's just having an excuse to stare. Kageyama starts to move under his gaze, there's a slight twitching of his eyebrow, stuffing his hands into his pockets. Soon that blank face turns into one of annoyance. "Are you sure? Answer me Dumbass."

"Yes i'm sure." Hinata blinks, turning away quickly and huffing. "Don't worry, I'm not going to let this interfere with volleyball. I'll get better. It's just lack of sleep."

"Good." Kageyama's shoulder's relax. Hinata raises his eyebrow.

"Are you sure that you're okay? What's with this? You're being really nice to me today, being all concerned about me-"

"That's just because you were acting weird yesterday and you look like shit today. I can't have you messed up or it interferes with our combo. That's why." Kageyama says quickly.

"Sure that's it." Hinata teases, smirking when he sees Kageyama's face scrunch up in anger but what he didn't expect to see is the slight flushing of his face. "I think Kageyama just wanted to see me because he missed me so much-" Hinata is having too much fun with this. The setter is taking the bait, his face getting all scrunched up in irritation.

"Shut up." Kageyama grabs him by the head and squeezes tightly, getting Hinata to wince and try to get out of his grip.

"Ouch, ouch! You're crushing my brains!-"

"Don't be stupid. I'm not even squeezing that hard-"

"Bull shit!" At that Kageyama smirks and lets him go. "What was that for?"

"For being stupid and for shoving me just a few minutes ago." Kageyama's face goes back to normal and he walks pass him. "Hurry up or we're going to be late dumb ass."

"If we're late it's your fault! Feeling all over my face like a weirdo."

"You're the one who doesn't know how to properly take care of yourself! At least I have enough sense to go to bed-"

"I do, I just couldn't sleep last night so I played some games!"

"And because of your lack of sleep, you lost to me easily in the race-"

"I'll beat you later! When we race to the bike rack. You're lucky I didn't get much sleep or you would be eating my dust."

"Ha! We'll see about that." Kageyama and Hinata glare at each other, walking into the school, shoving each other to be the first one in. Hinata is able to squeeze his way through, and he smirks back at Kageyama who clicks his tongue like he does, glaring away from him. Once they get into the hallway with other students , they calm down their rivalry and by the time Hinata gets to his class, they can say a decent good bye to each other.

"I'll see you at lunch." Kageyama says, getting Hinata to stop walking. He looks back but Kageyama is already making his way through the crowd. That's strange. Kageyama and Hinata have been spending lunch together but that's because Hinata always finds him and forces him to practice with him. Not that Kageyama minds, he comes a long and soon it just because a thing. But Kageyama has never acknowledge they are going to have lunch together before. He wonders if Kageyama will be waiting for him instead of off some where that Hinata will have to find him.

Hinata swallows down this feeling his chest, this warmness at the thought of Kageyama wanting to have lunch with him and when he thinks of the concern he saw there. Maybe the two of them are closer than he thought. Maybe they're getting a stronger relationship as setter and spiker. But what Hinata is feeling right now, isn't healthy. And he hates how when he was trying to push Kageyama out of the way, what he noticed was how firm he felt and toned. And he smelled good too. Like blueberry shampoo...and ax body spray. Strange but not unpleasant.

"That's so creepy!" Hinata can't help to hold his head, not noticing he said that out loud as he flops down on his seat and lets his head lay on the desk. Why was he smelling him so intently? Why was he noticing his muscles? Why could he barely look him in the eyes? It's because of that dream isn't it? It's because of the kiss he saw. It's because he pictured himself kissing Kageyama and now he can't get it out of his head. This is going to mess up their team work. Kageyama could even tell something was off about him. He thought he was sick but this is something worse than a disease.

What is he suppose to do in this situation?


School goes by like it normally does. With Hinata barely paying attention and moving around in his seat. Today he's anxious. Kageyama was waiting for him during lunch today. It made Hinata happy which in turn made the whole thing very awkward. They ended up not playing volleyball at all. They just sat there and ate in silence. Every once in a while they would break the quiet with saying something but not much. Kageyama kept getting irritated at him too and yelling. It just didn't go well. The space between them has been different.

Hinata is just glad he can play some volleyball now. It's not about him and these weird feelings, now he can focus on the ball and the team. He can focus on what's important. Hinata isn't surprised to see that when he opens the doors to the gym, he's not the first one in.

Kageyama is holding a ball against his forehead, his eyes closed, seeming to be in deep thought. When Hinata opened the door, he opened his eyes, those blue orbs locking right on him. Hinata swallows, feeling his heart doing a weird flutter and it's bothering him as he shuts the door behind him. There's no reason to be nervous. It's just Kageyama. So what if they're alone right now, they use to be alone together all the time.

Hinata blinks when Kageyama just stares at him, this strange look on his face. This is awkward. More awkward than lunch. Why is it feeling like this? All because of that stupid dream? He can't let it affect their relationship as setter and spiker.

"Ready to play?" Hinata grins, putting his hands on his hips. "You better send me a bunch of tosses today. I need to show you I'm in tip top shape." Hinata lifts his arms in the air, to show his excitement. Kageyama stares at him before his eyebrows furrow.

"Yeah." Kageyama looks down at the ball before looking at Hinata. "I'll send you a lot of tosses today."

Hinata's eyes light up and he runs up to Kageyama, forgetting about what ever awkwardness he was feeling ."Really?! How much is a lot? Ten? Twenty? As much as I want-"

"Oi! Don't get greedy!" Kageyama snaps but he doesn't shove him away when Hinata starts to get on his tip toes, trying to be eye level with the tall man. "A lot is how much I say it is. You'll see. You just focus on the best place to spike it, and i'll bring the ball to you."

Hinata nods, his eyes sparkling. For the past couple of days, Kageyama has barely been tossing to him. He's practicing his team work with the others but Hinata loves his tosses. He gets so hyped about them so to hear that he's going to get a lot of tosses from Kageyama today makes him smile.

Hinata tilts his head when Kageyama glares at him, his lips getting wobbly before he looks away. "You have a goofy smile. It irritates me." He Mumbles.

"Huh?!" Hinata glares. "I do not have a goofy smile and everything irritates you."

"You irritate me the most." Kageyama glares at him, those blue eyes sharp.

"What did I do?" Hinata glares, feeling a sting but he ignores it."You go from saying you're going to send me tosses to saying I irritated you! I was smiling because I was happy stupid."

"You're just you and you irritate me! You've been acting weird all day, barely looking at me and now you're smiling at me like that." Kageyama raises his voice, yelling at him. Not anything Hinata isn't use to.

"I can't help to smile when you say you're going to toss to me a lot! Your toss is the best!" Hinata yells back, glaring. When Kageyama's glare falls at that, and he starts looking at him strangely again, Hinata can feel his face heating up. "You irritate me too!" Hinata adds lamely at the end, trying to puff himself out but with Kageyama just staring at him with those intimidating eyes, it's hard.

Kageyama takes a step closer, his hand twitching before he reaches out. Hinata backs up, feeling as if he's about to grab and squeeze his head like he always does. When Kageyama sees Hinata moving away from him, he slowly puts his hand into his pocket and looks towards the net. "Dumbass...When you say things like that..." He trails off, scowling, glaring at the net as if that would make it burst into flames. "It feels-"

"Yo! You two early as always." Tanaka bursts into the gym, cutting off Kageyama, getting the younger males to look over at their older teammate.

"And you're not fighting. That's always a good sign." Suga smiles gently next to Tanaka.

"Lets have a practice match again today." Hinata waves his arms around, wanting to destroy this weird feeling between Kageyama and him.

"I'm sure the coach has something like that in mind for today." Suga smiles before he frowns. "Hinata you look a little tired today."

"Hm? Oh no i'm fine-"

"Hinata! Hello." Everyone stops talking and turns towards Tsukishima who just walked in with Yamaguchi. The blonde is smiling at him and Hinata has never been more confused. He looks happy to see him? Wasn't Tsukishima going to do something bad to him today?

"Hi." Hinata tilts his head When Tsukishima walks up to him. There's a shift in the atmosphere behind him but he doesn't turn around.

"Last night was something wasn't it? Thank you for walking me home." Tsukishima smiles and Hinata can't help to blink.

"What are you-"

"Why are you walking him home?" Hinata tenses and turns around to see Kageyama looming over him.

"Ah! Don't hurt me!" Hinata throws his arms up to protect himself. "I didn't-"

"We're like that." Tsukishima smirks at the reaction he gets in Kageyama, a slight twitching of his eyebrow, his face falling in a scowl.

"Alright everyone lets get into teams." Ukai walks out with Kiyoko, Daichi and Asahi. The couch doesn't look like he's in the mood to play games. "You know the deal. What ever it is you're fighting about, get over it. Leave it off the court."

Hinata knows the deal. He'll be on a team with Kageyama but with how darkly he's glaring at him and then at the blonde, Hinata isn't sure that's a good thing anymore. He's pissed.

Hinata gets into his position next to Kageyama, those fierce blue eyes boring into the side of his head but he doesn't look at him, he swallows down his fear, and tries to focus. He lets out a sigh in relief when he fees Kageyama take his eyes off of Hinata to focus on the match at hand.

"We're going to beat you this time." Tanaka yells over at Asahi, grinning widely. "Right Hinata?"

"Right!" Hinata grins, feeling better with his enthusiasm and now that Kageyama seems to be turning his irritation on the game.

The game starts and they volley back and forth with vigor, both sides planning on winning, giving their all. Hinata runs when he sees an opening and jumps in the air, trusting completely that the ball will be there for him to hit. And it is. Kageyama sends him a toss and when Hinata feels the ball in his palm, he can't help to gasp and open his eyes to experience the ball going over the net and scoring a point for them. His hand stings nicely and his lips can't help to wobble in a smile.

"Yes!" Hinata cheers just as Kageyama says a 'yes' of his own. Hinata smiles, looking at his hand for a moment only to tense when he feels eyes on him. He looks over to see Kageyama staring at him intently, this strange expression on his face.

"Good..." Kageyama's face scrunches up and he looks like he wants to kill him.

"Why is your face so scary?!" Hinata backs up, putting his hands up as if to protect himself. Kageyama blinks, stopping whatever he was saying before he glares darkly, his eyebrow twitching.

"I was born with this face!" Kageyama shouts, his voice raising in his anger. "Stupid Hinata! I was trying to-"

"Hinata that was an amazing spike." Tsukishima coos from the side, getting Hinata to look over at him with his eyebrow raised. Tsukishima never praises him. The blonde has this sly smile on his lips as he moves up from his position in the back and wraps his arms around Hinata. Hinata's brain short circuits for a moment, not being able to comprehend what just happened. The blonde devil is hugging him. All the team members have gone quiet, looking at this with wide eyes. "So good." Tsukishima puts him down, patting Hinata on the head who's gone pale.

"W-Why did you just hug me?! Are you sick or something?!" Hinata points a finger at Tsukishima.

"Yeah are you? That's not something you would do." Daichi raises his eyebrow.

"I'm just showing Hinata some support. No one else was giving him the proper praise." Tsukishima smirks over at Kageyama who's expression has scrunched up, no one except for the blonde is aware how hard he's gripping his fist right now.

"I give Hinata praise all the time! Better praises than you." Tanaka huffs before he rushes over and hugs Hinata next, lifting him up and spinning him. "Awesome Hinata!"

"Waa stop spinning me! I'm going to puke!" Hinata shouts which only gets his team members to chuckle at the display.

"I'm hugging Hinata next!" Nishinoya jumps in, grinning when Tanaka pushes Hinata over to him, the shorter man catching him with ease before squeezing him.

"What the hell, don't throw me around like a ball!" Hinata grumbles in annoyance but when everyone is laughing, he can't help to laugh himself. This is fun, and getting hugs from his teammates isn't bad.

"Send him back to me! Hinata you're so soft, like a girl!-" Tanaka teases.

"Am not!" Hinata growls.

"Um guys." Suga swallows when he notices how one member of their team seems to have a dangerous aura around him. "Let's get back to the game-"

Hinata winces when someone grabs his wrist with an iron like grip, ripping him away from the two older males. Before he can even react, his face is being shoved into a hard chest, and arms are being wrapped around him. His team members go quiet and all Hinata can hear is this person's heart. It's beating so fast, it's actually scaring Hinata a little bit.

"Do you really need all this Hinata?" Hinata swallows thickly when he's pulled away from the chest and he can see it's Kageyama who just had him in an embrace. "Every time you score a point, is this what you want?!" Kageyama's face is so scary. He's red in the cheeks and his eyes are dark.

"Wahh no!" Hinata shakes his head quickly, his heart starting to beat faster and his cheeks heat up thinking of Kageyama embracing him. "I don't want it every time. That would take away from playing volleyball-"

"Exactly. There's no need to be hugging him." Kageyama looks up to address the three males that did. His face is stone. "Keep your hands off of him." as soon as the words leave Kageyama, he seems as surprised as everyone else whos eyes widen at what sounded like a threat.

"What the hell is that about? We weren't hurting him or anything. If we want to give him a little praise or play around with him we can." Tanaka's eyes narrow at the challenge. Tsukishima is cracking up by now, covering his mouth to try to hold it in.

"Hey! That's enough. You're wasting my time right now. Kageyama is right, all the hugging is unnecessary. A good pat on the shoulder or high five will do, something quick so you all can get right into the game. I know you're frustrated at them goofing around during practice but there's no reason for you to get so worked up Kageyama." Ukai steps in, he's oozing frustration.

"I'm sorry." Kageyama does a slight bow, his bangs covering his eyes so Hinata can't see his expression. Tanaka mumbles his apologies but Hinata can't stop staring at Kageyama. That out burst was unexpected. That hug was unexpected. That hug wasn't a side hug, no. Kageyama had embraced him, his fingers went into his hair and he held him so tightly against his body. And his heart was pounding.

Hinata swallows, tensing when Kageyama looks over at him, glaring darkly. When he sees Hinata's face though, his lips twitch downward before he looks forward. "Stop spacing out idiot. You better hit the tosses I send you."

"I will." Hinata says without hesitation, firmly. He surprises himself. Kageyama's shoulders relax slightly but not much. Hinata can't get over how that hug made him feel. He felt things he shouldn't. These feelings aren't' normal towards another man are they?

They end up losing the match. Kageyama's tosses are too fast and they didn't synch as well as they did in the first half. The setter mostly sent balls to Tanaka. Hinata takes deep breaths, exhausted from the match and from him jumping and swinging with all his might even when the ball didn't come to him. Hinata can't help to glare at Kageyama who is panting next to him, not sparing him a glance. He said he would send him a lot of tosses today. Did he really get pissed off because everyone was hugging him? How is that his fault?

"Alright huddle up everyone." Ukai watches all his students moving closer, panting, sweating. "Good job today. Kageyama you were a little shaky on the second half but you made up for it. Everyone study for your tests this weekend. That's all." Ukai is quick to leave after he did that speech. He seems restless. Hinata picked up on that at the beginning.

"What was that about?" Hinata doesn't waste any time to turn on Kageyama. He must have been expecting it because he was already staring at him intensely before he even said anything. Hinata stands his ground.

"I was getting ahead of myself when I tossed to you. So I sent them to Tanaka." Kageyama isn't glaring at him, his voice even. "Don't complain. I'll send you tosses tomorrow. It's mainly your fault you know." Kageyama glares.

"How is it my fault?" Hinata challenges.

"Alright well we're going to be going you two." Suga smiles sheepishly, knowing that the two aren't paying attention. The third years leave with Tanaka and Nishinoya close behind.

"Having everyone hug you and distracting me." Kageyama huffs.

"It's not my fault that everyone decided to hug me." Hinata counters. "I don't get why you were distracted after it happened-"

"I don't know!" Kageyama snaps, Hinata's eyes widening. Kageyama pants as if he just ran a marathon before he glances away from him, covering his mouth with his hand. "I don't know. I just was. It annoyed me seeing that. I'm trying to learn how to properly give my teammates praises and then I see that form of praise and I just know I can't do it."

"Well...It's not something you have to do. I don't really know why all that started anyway. So don't worry about giving hugs." Hinata calms down, starting to understand.

This guy is so practical and he observes Suga and the others to get an idea of how he should interact with everyone else. His junior high days still haunt him and he wants to be better. He wants to be a decent King. Kageyama can barely give a high five, let alone a hug. But he hugged me-

"Just work on your high fives. Those are quick and easy to give with a nice 'good job!'. It's not that hard." Hinata sighs, putting his hands on his hips. "If you would just do that when I do a good spike instead of lecture me, I think that would be a good start."

"If you do something wrong or I see an area that you need to improve on I'll let you know. But...I can try to do the high fives more often." Kageyama nods.

"Good." Hinata grins. Liking how Kageyama seems to have gone back to normal. "But I was surprised, that hug you gave me was pretty good. Maybe you should give everyone a hug when they do well-"

"Fuck you." Kageyama shouts at Hinata, his expression angry but his cheeks have flushed. Hinata's heart does a flip and he feels like puking. That expression is making him feel warm. "I was proving a point that hugging is a waste of time by demonstrating how long and unnecessary it is."

"You got your point across with how scary the thought of you hugging everyone for scoring points by demonstrating it on me." Hinata grins when Kageyama's eyebrows scrunch up in anger, this feeling of excitement and fun from messing with him.

"Am I really that scary to you?" Kageyama's anger dims down a bit, this strange look on his face.

"You're terrifying. If I had to pick between Freddy cougar and you, I'd rather see Freddy cougar in my dreams than you."

"Dumb ass, Freddy Cougar would kill you." Kageyama grumbles but his face has scrunched up like he just hit his toe on something. Like he's in pain.

"What's with that expression?"

"So you disliked me hugging you but you were okay with Tsukishima hugging you?" Kageyama's voice gets dark.

"I didn't say I disliked you hugging me-" Hinata tenses when Kageyama catches that, his expression changing. Hinata can never read him. "It j-just scared the crap out of me." Hinata waves his arms around.

"It scared you but you didn't dislike it?" Kageyama presses.

"I-It wasn't bad- What the hell? Why do you care if I liked you hugging me or not?"

"Just wondering."Kageyama mumbles, those blue eyes shifting away from him.

"Gah. Lets race to the bike rack!" Hinata tries to change the subject, tries to get them on a normal path. Today has just been so weird and right now his heart can't take talking about liking Kageyama's hug. Because he should have disliked it but he didn't. He can still smell Kageyama, can still remember the feel of his tone chest against his head. It's too much.

Kageyama stares at Hinata for a moment before his face becomes strained. "I have tutoring today-"

"Again? It's not like we have finals coming up or anything. I thought you only had volleyball on your mind." Hinata raises his eyebrow. "When did you get all serious for school?"

"Recently." Kageyama turns and starts to walk off. "See you next week-"

"Since you're free Hinata..." Hinata's words are cut off when he feels a large hand on his shoulder. He looks up at Tsukishima who is smirking, those eyes sly. "You can walk me home again. My mother can cook you a meal and you could stay the night if you like-"

"I was mistaken. I don't have tutoring on Fridays. I forget what day it is." Kageyama turns quickly, his face scrunched up like he's angry. "Hinata lets go."

"You'll race me?" Hinata grins only for his eyes to widen when Kageyama grabs him by the wrist and starts to pull him away from the blonde. Hinata looks back just in time to see Tsukishima chuckling to himself, Yamaguchi sighing next to him.

"Why have you been buddy buddy with Tsukishima ?" Kageyama turns on him immediately when they are a few yards away from the gym, those piercing blue eyes narrowed, his voice a shout. Hinata actually jumps a little from the outburst. They were just walking silently with each other, Kageyama's hand holding his wrist had Hinata fighting these strange feelings that are involved with Kageyama. His heart was beating so fast and he liked how warm Kageyama's hand felt on his skin.

"I haven't been buddy buddy with him. What are you talking about?" Hinata glares, wincing when Kageyama tightens his grip on his wrist and it hurts slightly.

"you walked him home last night, you let him hug you and he was asking for you to walk him home again and stay the night at his home. You must have been getting closer to him."

"I haven't gotten closer to him! That guy still hates my guts. I don't really get why he hugged me or why he asked me to walk him home, but he was lying when he said I walked him home yesterday. I didn't do that." Hinata straightens himself out, not looking away from those blue eyes, ignoring this strange fluttering of his heart. Don't look at his lips. Don't think about Kageyama kissing him. "I don't know what he's up to but it's not good for me. Maybe he's just trying to get you pissed off at me."

"You didn't walk him home? He was lying?" Kageyama seems to settle down as he considers this. "Did you do something to piss Tsukishima off, dumb ass?"

"No! Well...m-maybe." Hinata flushes when he thinks of the kiss he walked in on and the threat Tsukishima had left him. Kageyama gets a strange look on his face when he sees the look on Hinata's face. His lips go in a tight line and he shoves his hands into his pockets.

"What did you do?" He snarls.

"I didn't do anything! I just... " Hinata rubs the back of his head. "I can't talk about it-"

"Why not?"

"Because I can't." Hinata snaps, feeling frustrated. He doesn't want to talk about the kiss that he witnessed. Because of that kiss, his head has been all messed up. That kiss awaken a curiosity in him that could jeopardize volleyball for him and the combo he has with Kageyama. He doesn't understand why he thinks of kissing Kageyama, or why his heart beats so fast and he starts to feel sick around him. He feels warm and his brain feels fuzzy sometimes when Kageyama grins at him. "Why are you here anyway? Did you really forget it was Friday? You've been going to tutoring a lot. I find it hard to believe that you really just started getting interested in your grades. I feel like you're lying to me." That's been bothering him too.

"I am being tutored. That is not a lie." Kageyama has gone stiff. "Don't accuse me of lying when you're the one who's being sneaky, keeping things from me like this!" Kageyama reaches out, grabbing his wrist when Hinata tried to walk away from the situation. "Stop being a dumb ass Hinata and just tell me! Obviously it's bothering you-"

"I want to kiss someone." Hinata grinds out. The reaction is quick. Kageyama lets go of him, his eyes widening, his lips parting in his shock. Hinata rubs his forehead, groaning to himself. Why did he have to go and say that? It just sort of slipped. That's what's really been bothering him.

"...Kiss someone?"

"I've become curious I guess. I want to kiss someone. I want to know how it feels like..." Hinata's ears get red from just admitting he hasn't kissed anyone yet and from the words he's saying. Kageyama is silent and Hinata won't look at him.

"Are you interested in romance?" Kageyama's question isn't angry or condescending. Hinata's not sure what to make out of that tone of voice. When he looks at Kageyama, he's trying to hold back a grin. Hinata's face gets red from embarrassment.

"Don't m-make fun of me ass hole! So what if I haven't kissed anyone! I'm sure there's plenty of others my age that haven't kissed anyone either! And I've been busy with volleyball so it can't be helped anyway-" Hinata starts going off, his eyes wide and his face so flushed as he tries to explain himself, trying to make himself feel better in the process. "And it's not like I'm the most popular with the girls to begin with- So don't you dare grin at me because I haven't kissed anyone, Just because you've kissed someone doesn't make you better than me if that's what you're thinking-"

"I haven't' kissed anyone."

"I don't even...wait what?" Hinata's words get caught in his throat and he stares at Kageyama in surprise, the raven haired male just looking at him blankly.

"I haven't kissed anyone." Kageyama repeats, huffing when Hinata's eyes widen more.

"Seriously?! So you're a loser like me!-"

"Oi! Don't put me on your level!" Kageyama's eye twitches, his jaw clenching. "Just because I haven't kissed, doesn't make me a loser. You're not a loser because you haven't kissed anyone, you're just a loser-"

"Hey-"

"Like you said, it can't be helped. All I care about is volleyball and becoming a better setter. I don't have time for romance." Kageyama's eyes get cloudy. "Romance would get in the way of volleyball. It takes too much time."

"I agree." Hinata calms down, surprised once again that Kageyama actually has the same train of thought as him when it comes to volleyball and romance. "I want to kiss someone and I think I'm just curious. I don't think I want a relationship. I couldn't be there for my girlfriend if I had one, all my free time would be spent on volleyball." Hinata rubs the back of his head.

"Good. You shouldn't get involved with girls or romance. It will just distract you and you need to be focused on the game." Kageyama starts to scold him but those eyes are still glossy. Far away, he's in deep thought.

"You don't need to tell me that, I already know." Hinata huffs. There's a tense silence between them before Hinata looks up at the darkening sky. "but you know i'm kind of relieved. It's nice knowing that you haven't kissed anyone either. You think the same way I do."

"...I'm relieved as well." Kageyama seems to relax. "I'll walk you home."

"Huh? You don't have to. That's out of your way isn't it?" Hinata starts walking towards the bike rack, hyper aware of Kageyama who is now walking next to him, and the way those board shoulders shift as he walks. Hinata wants to smack himself when he feels his face getting hot.

"It's fine."Kageyama stops, waiting for Hinata to get his bike before they're walking together again. Hinata doesn't like the silence between them, especially since he's starting to think about how they're alone and how Tsukishima and Yamaguchi had been alone when they started kissing, and then he starts thinking about the thoughts he's had about kissing Kageyama and how mad Kageyama would be if he just jumped up and stole a kiss-

"What's with you?" Hinata tenses when he's hit on the side of the face. He blinks over at Kageyama who is glaring at him. "Why are you getting all spaced out?"

"I was just thinking." Hinata mumbles, looks forward.

"About what? Don't go off somewhere when I'm walking you home."

"Shut up, I didn't ask you to walk me home." Hinata huffs. " I don't have to tell you what him thinking."

"..." Kageyama watches him from the corner of his eye, tching in irradiation. "That reminds me, you didn't answer my question, what did you do to Tsukishima to piss him off?"

"If I told you I fear what he would do to me." Hinata admits, licking his lips nervously. That seems to catch the setter's attention.

"Is he threatening you?"

"Sort of. I'm not really sure what he would do and it's just ughhh...It's not like I wanted to see it." Hinata shakes his head, feeling frustrated. It's the kiss's fault he's having trouble looking Kageyama in the eyes. "I don't get why he's hugging on me though."

"You saw something?"

"Crap." Hinata tenses. "I just need to keep my mouth shut. Don't worry about it. It's not a big deal. I'm sure Tsukishima will get over it soon." Hinata waves his hand.

"If you say so." Kageyama doesn't say anything after that. For a while they walk in silence before Hinata breaks it by talking about practice and how he wants to spike more of his tosses and how he can't wait for the rematch with Neko. By the time they get to his house, they're having a full conversation about Volleyball.

"thanks for walking me home. I'll see you Monday." Hinata smiles at Kageyama, about to run up to his front door-

"Hinata." Hinata stops, turning around to look at Kageyama who is staring at him with that indifferent expression, his hands in his pockets. "...Practice tomorrow?"

"Huh? You want to have volleyball practice together?" Hinata blinks when Kageyama glares to the side.

"You need to work on your form and your receiving still sucks." Kageyama grunts.

"Huh?! I'm not that bad!" Hinata huffs but he's smiling soon. "Yeah. I'd like to practice. Since I have you to myself, I get all the tosses!" Hinata grins, not realizing how weird that sounded in till he said it. He tenses, waiting for Kageyama to call him weird but he's surprised when Kageyama turns on his heel and quickly starts to walk away.

"Meet me at the park at 8. Don't be late dumb ass."

"I won't be late! I'll be early! Earlier than you!" Hinata calls after him, feeling like he has to have the last word.

"Ha. When you get there I'll already be volleying the ball."

"We'll see about that." Hinata calls after him, Kageyama not looking back at him but that's fine. Hinata walks into his home, slamming the door behind him, his lips wobbling up in a smile. He wouldn't mind the grin on his face if his cheeks didn't heat up and his heart didn't beat faster.

Why the hell is he so happy?! Because Kageyama asked him to practice with him? Because they're spending more time together? Because it's the weekend and they're going to hang out? It's just to practice volleyball... "Uh i'm so lame." Hinata slaps his redden cheek.

He goes to his room without much sound, knowing that his mother is at work and that his sister is probably laying in bed by now. Hinata walks into his room, stripping off his sweaty clothes before heading over to shower. He tries not to think about kissing Kageyama, instead he tries to focus on volleyball and how it's going to be fun to play volleyball with Kageyama and nothing else.

Maybe Hinata just needs to kiss someone to get this out of his system. Maybe he's just curious. Maybe if he gets a taste, then he'll be alright. He can't kiss Kageyama, that's out of the question. It would ruin their team work and Kageyama wouldn't toss to him. So...who else is there?

Hinata isn't smooth with the ladies and he doubts a girl would just want to kiss him without dating. There's Yachi but again he wouldn't want to put her in that position and she hasn't been at practice because of she's been working hard on this school project...Hinata isn't looking to date anyone either. So what? Should he look for a guy to kiss? But who? Maybe another teammate that's understanding? Suga is nice...Hinata flushes. Maybe if he kisses Suga he can get all these thoughts of kissing Kageyama out of his head. The want for kissing would be satisfied.

Hinata huffs as he gets out of the shower, drying himself off. He didn't even know two guys kissed till recently and now he's all for it. Is this why he hasn't been that interested in girls? Has he been interested in guys all this time? Hinata shakes his head. He's just curious from seeing that kiss. Once he kisses a guy, it'll be fine.

Hinata's eyes shine with determination as he marches into his room, putting on some boxers before grabbing his phone. He's surprised to see he has a message from Kageyama.

"I'll be there first."

Hinata's eyebrow twitches as he flops down on the bed. "Shut up, no i'll be the first." Hinata sends before sighing. It's weird having Kageyama texting him. He's been doing that a lot lately. It's not like they have deep conversations or anything. Kageyama only texts him with simple words and most of the time Hinata gets annoyed with how long it takes the setter to text back only to say something like 'okay' or 'dumb ass'.

"Buy me ice cream tomorrow." Hinata blinks at that message.

"What's that all of sudden? Buy your own ice cream! I'm not made of money!" Hinata sends this to Kageyama before he sends a message to Suga, feeling his face heat up from what he's about to ask.

"Hey Suga, can I ask a favor of you?"

"I want chocolate ice cream and i'm not made of money either dumb ass. I bought you lunch last week."

"Sure Hinata! What do you need?"

The two messages come at the same time.

"ugh fine!" Hinata sends this to Kageyama

"I've been having these troublesome thoughts lately and i'm afraid it's going to get in the way of my volleyball. I know this is going to sound weird and you can turn me down if you want, but I think if I get it out of my system, I'll be okay." Hinata sends this to Suga.

There's a moment where he doesn't get a text from either of the two males, then at once they both text him.

" I want two scoops."

"What's wrong Hinata? What can I do for you?"

Hinata swallows thickly at Suga's message and sits up, biting his lip. "I know this is crazy but can I kiss you? It will be quick! I think I just need something to get me to stop thinking about it. You don't have to do it." Hinata sends this before texting Kageyama next.

"You're being selfish, just have one scoop." Hinata sends this. He swallows his nervousness when Suga texts him back quickly.

"...? Just have one scoop of what? I'm confused."

Hinata freezes. Everything in him stops. His eyes widen in realization and his blood runs cold. He scent Suga the message about the ice cream so that means...! Hinata almost screams in his panic as he quickly texts Kageyama, trying to right his wrong.

"That wasn't meant for you! Sorry!" Hinata sends this. He tenses when he realizes that doesn't sound good either. He fucked up.

Kageyama doesn't text him back. Hinata frowns deeply, feeling restless but he texts Suga back. "I'm sorry, that was meant for Kageyama. Could you please kiss me. Just really quick. I think once I get it out of my system i'll be okay. If not, that's fine too." Hinata sends this, his heart beating so fast. Damn, Kageyama's going to be pissed at him. They were just talking about not getting into romantic relationships, Kageyama's going to be angry.

Suga doesn't text back for awhile.

"You want me to kiss you, Hinata? What do you mean get it out of your system?"

"I've been having thoughts of kissing and I think it's going to mess up volleyball for me. So I was thinking if I kiss a guy, i'll get it out of my system. You're the only person I could trust with this."

"I don't think kissing me will get it out of your system, unless i'm the person you've been thinking about kissing?"

"Well...you're not the first person I thought about kissing but I wouldn't mind kissing you." Hinata covers his face with his hands in embarrassment.

"I think you should kiss the one you've been thinking about. Besides, it's not that I don't want to kiss you Hinata, you're cute, but i'm already taken. So I can't kiss you."

Hinata shakes his head. There's no way he could kiss Kageyama-wait what? "You're dating someone?! Who?"

"Daichi XP"

"Why haven't you guys said anything?!" Hinata can't believe it. That's another pair of team members that are together romantically and he didn't know anything about it.

"We didn't want to weird you guys out but I trust you Hinata. Could you keep this between me and you?"

"...As long as you keep this kissing thing between us." Hinata texts back. Why is everyone dating and he has no clue?!

"Of course! But really Hinata, if you've been thinking about kissing someone, then you should tell them."

"It's not that easy. The person I want to kiss would kill me if I tried." Hinata rubs the back of his head. "And even though I've thought about it I'm not sure I really want to kiss him. It's complicated."

"If you're thinking about it a lot, I think you want to kiss them. I have to go Hinata, get some rest tonight. If you want to talk about this some more tomorrow, i'm all ears! :)"

"Thank you Suga. Good night."

Hinata sighs, covering his face with his hands when he sees Kageyama still hasn't' texted him back. Great. Suga isn't going to kiss him and now he's going to have to deal with an angry Kageyama tomorrow. Maybe he should just cancel tomorrow's practice while he still has the chance?

Hinata never does though. He just lays in bed, letting sleep take him, being exhausted from all the training and his heart being jerked around from different emotions.

Tomorrow will be trouble.


"Oh man oh man oh man." Hinata locks up his bike before he walks into the entrance of the park. He came an hour early but he doubts Kageyama is going to show up. The setter didn't text him back last night. Hinata knows he's pissed so just the idea that he's coming to the park to meet up with him has him shivering. Why oh why did he have to send that message? Why did he have to send it to Kageyama of all people?

Hinata's eyes widen when he spots Kageyama sitting on the bench, a volleyball on his lap. He's staring down at the volleyball, his expression unreadable. Hinata has the urge to just turn on his heel, walk back to his bike, ride his bike back home, and hide under the covers. Hinata licks his lips before he takes steps towards Kageyama, when he gets close enough, Kageyama looks up, those sharp blue eyes locking on him.

Hinata gulps when Kageyama just glares at him. He doesn't say anything, and his face scrunches up and since he's silent Hinata knows he's really pissed off.

"Haha...you beat me." Hinata chuckles nervously, rubbing the back of his head. "So you ready to play some volleyball or what?-" Kageyama suddenly stands up, walking towards him. "W-Whoa, hey Kageyama!" Hinata starts to back up but Kageyama is fast. Before he knows it he's looking up at the tall monster of a man that stares down at him with those powerful blue eyes.

"I thought you said you weren't going to get involved with romance." Kageyama speaks slowly, leaning closer, getting Hinata to lean back. He can feel himself start to sweat. When Kageyama gets like this he's seriously scary.

"Y-Yeah I did. And I'm not." Hinata's face gets pale when Kageyama smirks, and it scares him shitless.

"Then why did you accidentally send me a message about kissing someone?" Kageyama leans closer. "Who is it?"

"I'm not getting in a romantic relationship." Hinata says more firmly, trying to push Kageyama away so he can have some personal space. His heart is beating faster and it's not just from fear. "It's just like i've been telling you. I've been wanting to kiss someone so...I just wanted to get it out of my system so it won't effect me playing volleyball."

"And who were you planning on doing this too?" Kageyama grips his fist, this strange look in on his face. A strained expression.

"I asked Suga just because I felt like he could be trusted with this but it turns out he's already taken so I couldn't." Hinata blushes darkly when Kageyama's eyes flash. "L-Look don't tell anyone about this alright? I know it's weird I was asking a guy but I think I'm just curious or something." Hinata can't look Kageyama in the eye. He just admitted he's been having some pretty weird thoughts. Hinata's face gets hotter and hotter when Kageyama doesn't say anything but he can feel his eyes on him, staring him down, glaring holes into his head.

"Kiss me."

Hinata sputters, choking on his own spit when Kageyama says the last thing in the entire world that Hinata would expect. He looks over at the setter with wide eyes, his blush covering his nose, his mouth dropping in shock. "W-What?!"

"You heard me idiot!" Kageyama shouts at him, glaring darkly but...holy shit is he blushing?! "You said that you just need to get it out of your system so kiss me and do that. Consider this as a team member helping out another team member. I can't have you messing up your game when we're about to battle neko again."

"I-I can't kiss you!" Hinata shakes his head frantically. That's the last thing he needs...or maybe it's exactly what he needs? If he kisses Kageyama, maybe he'll stop thinking about it, wondering?

"Why not dumb ass?! You were fine with kissing Suga." Kageyama's face scrunches up. "It's not like I want to kiss you, i'm doing this so you'll start focusing more on-"

"Okay. Let's do it Kageyama." Hinata grips his fist, moving closer to Kageyama, staring up at him with his eyes burning with a fire. The setter's eyes widen from the sudden change in the spiker and he takes a few steps back. "Thank you for doing this. It'll be a big help."

"...Yeah." Kageyama's eyes are wide but when Hinata moves closer he doesn't move away this time. Hinata glances around, not seeing anyone. He looks back at Kageyama, swallowing thickly when he catches the setter staring at his face intently, or more so, his lips.

"So...How do we do this?" Hinata flushes, feeling nervous and his heart is beating wayy too fast right now.

"I don't know." Kageyama's eyebrows furrow. They stare at each other, heavy silence falling between them.

"I guess i'll...get closer?" Hinata moves closer so that his face is right in front of Kageyama's chest.

"Seems right." Kageyama mumbles before he puts his hands on Hinata's shoulders leaning down. Hinata's lips tremble, his blush reaching his ears. He really shouldn't be freaking out this much! This is just a kiss...a kiss with the king. And it's his first.

It's strange but Kageyama's lips look weird too, and his eyes...It's too hot between them and it's strange because they're just breathing in each other's face. Maybe Hinata should make the first move.

"I'm going to do it." Hinata warns, grabbing Kageyama's face, cupping his cheeks.

"Then do it."

Hinata takes a deep breath before he closes his eyes and leans in quickly. The feeling of Kageyama's lips causes him to snap his eyes open...They're so soft. Hinata tenses when he's met with blue eyes so close to his own, staring at him intensely. Scary! Hinata closes his eyes again and tries to move his lips like he saw Tsukishima and Yamaguchi do. At first Kageyama doesn't kiss him but soon his lips move and it sends a shiver down his spine.

Kissing feels different. Soft flesh brushing against each other. It's nice. Hinata's heart is beating too fast. He should pull away from Kageyama before he makes a weird nose or the setter can hear his heart beat. Hinata's breath catches in his throat when he feels Kageyama's tongue against his lips, like a reflex he parts his lips. His eyes snap open when Kageyama's tongue slips into his mouth, rubbing against his tongue.

The sight he sees sends heat straight down to his groin. Kageyama's eyes are still open, he's staring at him with these half lidded blue orbs. It's too much. Hinata starts to push the setter away but Kageyama tightens his grip on him, deepening the kiss. "K-Kageyama." Hinata makes out. The sound of his name seems to get the setter to stop in his advances. His eyes widen slightly and he pulls away quickly. Both boys stare at each other, panting, their faces flushed.

Hinata touches his lips. "That was my first kiss..."

"...Yeah." Kageyama touches his own lips. "Mine too." Kageyama glances up at Hinata. "how was it?"

"I didn't...hate it." Hinata blushes from just saying that. "It wasn't like I was expecting. Not in a bad way but it was just different you know?"

"Yeah." Kageyama picks up the volleyball he dropped and squeezes it. "Are you satisfied?"

"I think so." Hinata's not sure but he feels like that should be enough.

"If you start acting like an idiot again because you have these urges, just come see me." Kageyama doesn't look at him when he says this.

"Huh?!" Hinata's eyes widen and he flushes.

"It's for the team. If you need to get something out of your system, come to me. If you kiss someone else, you may end up getting in a relationship. You don't have to worry about that with me. So come to me when you need to get rid of your urges. I don't mind it."

"Yeah but..." Hinata trails off. He's not sure how to feel about that. Hinata knows Kageyama loves volleyball more than anything but is he listening to himself? It's like he's offering his body to him or something and it makes Hinata feel a bit uneasy. "I should be fine. I just needed something small."

"Okay." Kageyama stares at him for a moment before holding up the ball. "Volleyball?"

"Yeah." Hinata grins, relieved that they can get back to being normal. Soon they're volleying the ball back and forth. Kageyama yells at him because his form is off and they bicker back and forth, it's like everything is back to normal. Like they didn't just kiss. Like that never happened. But Hinata can still taste the setter and his heart still hasn't calmed since.

His first kiss was with the king. Hinata just hopes that he's satisfied with that. No more strange dreams, no more strange thoughts.

Hinata's eyes sparkle when Kageyama suddenly sends him a toss. Hinata jumps for it, and smacks it as hard as he can, loving the feeling, his face lighting up.

Just volleyball and his teammates matter.


Why do I love this anime so much? I use to not even like volleyball lol. I sucked so bad in high school and all the girls would yell at me because I didn't know what I was doing. But I like this anime and the couple of Kageyama and Hinata is too cute. I had this saved and decided to post it. This may be a one shot or I may write more if I want to.
