Daichi- Put a ring on it

ASK: May I ask for a scenario (or whatever’s easiest!) of Daichi’s reaction to his female s/o proposing to him? Thanks!

In honor of the crow captain’s birthday, I’m posting this one today!


The date had been wonderful, a peaceful walk through the park coupled with a basket of his favorite food. His girlfriend had surprised him after work, showing up at the school with the fixings for a relaxing evening. Unconsciously, he clenched her hand tighter. He felt bad that so much of his time was being taken away from her but he had a goal to earn his doctorate in sports medicine while part time coaching at his alma mater. They’d talked briefly about living together, but he couldn’t help thinking they should get married first. It was how his grandparents and parents had done things and he just couldn’t see doing anything else.

But they just couldn’t do that right now. The expense of a ring alone had shocked him, add to that the cost of a wedding and suddenly he was hearing register clangs instead of wedding bells.

Of course, he knew it wasn’t all about the money, they could have a simple wedding. Maybe-

“Daichi,” said the woman next to him, drawing his attention to her face.

“Hmmmm?”

“I…I was wondering…” she took a deep breath, stopping their forward motion and turning to look at him. She scanned his handsome face, the strong jaw she loved to kiss, the gentle smile that warmed her heart, the piercing gaze that seemed to read her soul. He was everything she ever wanted and even though she knew it would be hard, she just couldn’t hold back any longer. She looked down, slowly touching one knee to the ground as her hand exited her pocket with a box in it.

Daichi’s eyes widened so big he was sure they were going to fall out of his head. Was…she…really…

“Daichi, would…would you marry me?” she asked, holding up a simple silver band. She couldn’t keep tears from streaming down her face as she looked up at him. His mouth opened and closed, but he couldn’t form any words. Hastily she went on, “I know it’s not conventional….and….and I know it feels sudden…but…but I really love you and I was afraid you’d think you need to wait until you could afford a big diamond or a huge wedding or-”

Her rambling was cut off by a pair of warm lips covering hers, Daichi’s fingers raking through her hair. His tongue trailed along her bottom lip, prompting her to open to him. He moved his arms around her waist, drawing her closer as they knelt in the middle of the park.

Pulling away, they both drew long breaths. “I love you,” he rasped, forehead pressed to hers. He swallowed, trying to formulate his thoughts. “I…I won’t lie and say I’m not disappointed that I didn’t get to ask you but you’re completely right. I would have waited, not just because I thought you wanted those things but because I did too.” He felt her stiffen but held her firmly. “But I’m saying yes.”

She drew back, tear filled eyes staring into his. He smiled warmly, large hand cupping her cheek and his thumb wiping her tears away. “At the end of the day, I want to start our lives together too, everything else can come later.”

Could I request Kagami taking care of his s/o when she’s sick? Like making her food and cuddling

Since I’m sick right now, this is the perfect time to write this as I have plenty of motivation. I did this in head canon form, hope you don’t mind.


  • Kagami is the type of boyfriend who will all but tie his girlfriend to the bed or couch to make sure she’s getting the rest she needs.
  • Anything she wants, he’ll get, she just has to ask. He even arranges for her to stay at his place, in his bed with a bell so she can call him if she needs anything.
  • Though, of course, since she asks for him to snuggle with her most of the day he’s right by her side as it is.
  • He’ll make a homemade chicken or vegetable soup packed full of healthy ingredients and herbs meant to combat her symptoms.
  • If she can eat it, he’ll go out and buy either her favorite popsicles or ice cream to help soothe her sore throat.
  • He’ll pick up all her medication, making sure to go over any prescriptions with the pharmacist so he knows exactly how many doses to give and when.
  • If she wants to watch movies or TV, he’ll set that up for her.
  • He’ll even read to her out loud if that is what helps her relax.
  • He’ll massage her face if she’s super congested to try to help move out all the junk clogging her system
  • He’s not squeamish at all, so whatever grossness is coming out of her nose, he doesn’t care. He just wants her to get better. Same goes for if she has the stomach flu, he’ll be the one holding her hair back and rubbing her back if she needs to throw up.
  • If she’s able to eat/drink, he’ll hound her about staying hydrated, keeping track of how many ounces of water she has.
  • Brews a mean cup of super awesome tea that soothes her throat and calms her cough.
  • Generally, he’s at her beck and call, will do anything in his power to make her as comfortable as possible and will always take care of her.

I LOVE the 12 Days of Christmas idea! So cute!! I think I’m doing this right: can I please have day 10 with Daichi and day 12 with Tanaka? Thank you so much and Merry Christmas!!

haikyuvolleydorks:

Awwww thanks dear! I hope we’ll be able to do it again next year too!

– Admin Zee

Daichi’s Day 10 is here!

Tanaka Ryuunosuke

Day 12

Your true love woke up to see your beautiful face next to him. Pick this day and enjoy some headcanons about waking up next to your sweetheart on Christmas day while opening up presents in bed.

  • Tanaka is definitely the the type to wake up super early to exclaim that it’s Christmas. You being his girlfriend are, fortunately or unfortunately, also caught up in his early morning excitement.  
  • He will feel bad though if you still seem a bit sleepy and offers to go back to sleep for a few more hours, but you’re already grabbing his present and shoving it into his arms with a cute blush on your face.
  • Whatever you get him, this boy will be ecstatic because it came from you and he’s going to cherish it forever no matter what.
  • After his present, he hands you a bag and you are just shocked. He had gotten you a limited edition hoodie that you had been trying to get since forever ago. Cue you tackling him in a hug and a mini fashion show afterwards. 
  • Regardless of what the two of you did afterwards, you were always going to remember this Christmas morning forever.

Adorable!!! Thank you and Merry Christmas!!

Twenty Question [Kasamatsu Yukio]

imagine-knb:

Originally posted on my personal writing blog (along with another various accounts I have elsewhere). This is an extra chapter I couldn’t quite fit into a series I once wrote for Kasamatsu! I hope you enjoy! (I’m contemplating posting the other chapters to the Kasamatsu fic I wrote; let me know if you guys like this idea)
-Neon


There’s a tense
moment of silence as ____ glances back and forth between her companion
and the direction their waitress had just left in. With their orders
already taken, an opportunity for conversation should have been
initiated, but neither teen was seizing the chance. In a nervous habit,
she starts nibbling on her bottom lip, wracking her brain for any topic
that would be of interest.

“So,” she starts eventually, noticing how the boy across from her flinches ever so slightly. “Basketball?”

In
her mind, ____ is chastising herself for the lame start of a
conversation. Of course her date would want to talk about basketball—he
was Kasamatsu Yukio, after all—but she didn’t know the first thing about
the sport save for the few things her friends back at Seirin had told
her. Needless to say, she’d already dived headfirst into a topic she had
no experience in.

“Y-Yeah,” Kasamatsu answers back.

He’s
cursing at himself inwardly for the short response, unable to find the
words to express himself. Even if he could, he doesn’t really know what ____ means. Did she want to know why he played basketball? Or maybe
she wanted to talk about his last game? It was possible she was leaving
it open for his interpretation so he could take the conversation in
whatever direction he chose, but that plan would only work if he could
get the jumbled vocabulary in his mind to make coherent phrases longer
than a syllable. This date was a bad idea.

When Kasamatsu fails to
elaborate further on his answer another silence starts to linger in the
air. ____ finds herself glancing around the cafe, looking for another
source of inspiration for their conversation. When none presents
itself, she goes back to the previous topic, albeit hesitantly.

“I
don’t know much about it myself. Maybe you could teach me a few
things?” She leaves the question hanging in the air, hoping her voice
didn’t sound overly hopeful.

There’s another beat before Kasamatsu answers with a quick, “S-Sure.”

____ feels her heart sink when, once again, Kasamatsu ends his answer short.
She hadn’t expected him to be so closed off and, for a brief second,
she wonders if it’s something about her that’s putting him off.

“I’m
sorry this is really awkward,” she apologizes suddenly, catching
Kasamatsu slightly off guard. ____ couldn’t remember the last time a
first date had gone this badly; maybe it was a bad omen? “If you want,
we can call this date off. I wouldn’t mind—”

“N-No!”

The
quick outburst startles ____ and she reels back in her seat for a
second, staring at Kasamatsu with wide, curious eyes. Despite the fact
that he’s turning his head in every direction other than hers, she can
still see the red flush that’s begun to creep its way onto his face. It
tints his ears ever so slightly before he finally opens his mouth to
speak once more.

“Stay,” he murmurs, proud of himself for not
stuttering for once. “I…” Once again and far too soon, he’s at a loss
for words. Just how hard could it be to explain that he really wanted
this date to work out? “I want to know… you?”

Even though he’s
ended it like a question, the fact that he’d said something more than
one word at a time has brought an accomplished smile to ____’s face.
Still, she knows it must have taken a lot of courage for him to do so
and it’s more than likely that he’ll return to his one syllable answers
once again. It takes her a moment, but a plan comes to her mind that may
take use of his short replies. This date might just be a good idea
after all.

“I want to get to know you too,” she confesses. The
words cause a tinge of pink to dash onto her cheeks and she tries to
shake it off before continuing. “Why don’t we play twenty questions?”

“H-Huh?”

There’s confusion laced in Kasamatsu’s voice, something ____ was betting would happen.

“We’ll
ask each other a series of yes or no questions,” she elaborates, making
a two with one hand and a zero with the other. “Things like ‘do you
like the school you’re in’ or ‘do you like eating seafood’ and stuff,
okay?” When Kasamatsu hesitantly nods, ____ smiles. “Great. Uh, I’ll
start.”

She takes her time to think of a good first question, her
thinking process showing on her face as she glances around the room.
Every so often, ____ would lock eyes with Kasamatsu, though he never
held the gaze for long. Finally, after a dragged out minute, ____
snaps her fingers together in a gesture that says she’s finally thought
of one.

“Do you play any instruments?”

The questions was simple enough and Kasamatsu easily finds himself nodding as he mutters out a quick, “Yeah.”

And
for a second, ____ forgets the rules to the game. “That’s so cool!
What kind of instrument do you play? Do you know how to play any modern
songs, or just classical stuff? Can you play something for me one day?
I’d really like to hear it. Oh, have you ever—”

There’s a certain
panic in Kasamatsu’s eyes as the onslaught of questions assault him.
Noticing the overwhelmed expression, ____ brings her inquiries to a
screeching halt. She smiles sheepishly at him as a form of apology
before gesturing for him to take his turn. Unfortunately, it only lands
the two of them right back at square one.

“D-Do… Do you, uh…”

____ doesn’t even bother to count the minutes it takes for Kasamatsu to finally finish his question.

{EXTRA}

“Okay,” ____ says, her voice holding a tone of finality. “This is the twentieth question I have for you.”

She
pauses for dramatic effect, making Kasamatsu feel rather nervous. What
if she asked something that would inevitably embarrass him? He didn’t
want to have to lie.

“Will you,” she starts off slowly. “Teach me how to shoot a basket?”

His answer his immediate. “Yes.”

Super cute awkward Kasamatsu!

It’s Lana! I came up with one request so far, it’s fairly simple. Could I see either headcanons or an imagine of Tsukishima and Kageyama falling in love with their demigod! s/o? (Might be back later ;))

I approached these from the position that the boys don’t
know the girls are demi-gods. Once again, seeded by Admin Red, thank you!


Tsukishima and daughter of Minerva (Roman goddess of wisdom
and strategic warfare, and the sponsor of arts, trade, and strategy)

From the moment they first meet, Tsukishima is on his guard.
She’s way too informed about their opponents for him not to be. Sure, there’s
such a thing as scouting but she takes it to a whole new level. It isn’t that
he or the other crows don’t appreciate it but he can’t help but be skeptical as
to how she acquires her information. And it’s not as though he thinks himself a
saint or anything but aren’t there limits to what a person will do to gain
the upper hand? Especially in regard to something as simple as a club?

“Just how do you know all this stuff?” he asks her one day
after practice. He’s waited until everyone else has left, hoping she’ll tell
him the truth if it’s just the two of them.

“Women’s intuition,” she chirps, continuing to pick up the
volleyballs surrounding them.

He pulls the one from her hand, grabbing her wrist and
making her look at him. “And my intuition is screaming, bullshit.”

“Why do you care?” she snaps, wrenching away from his hold.
The question catches him off guard. Why does he care? Shouldn’t he just be
happy to have the information, no matter the method of its obtainment? But the
dark considerations he’s had fliting about in his brain won’t allow him to be
satisfied and it’s in this moment he realizes he cares not because of morality,
but because of jealousy.

She startles him with her next words, seemingly able to read
his mind. “By the way, I’m insulted that you think so lowly of me Tsukishima-kun,
I’m not a whore.” Her tone is solid, not a trace of guilt or untruth to be
found. “I just happen to be exceptionally skilled in the art of strategic
warfare.”

“Warfare?” he questions, unable to keep incredulity out of
his tone. “We’re playing volleyball, not marching onto the battlefield!”

“Now that is some
mighty fine bullshit,” she spats whirling on her heel and getting right in his
face. “You boys are no different in your quest for victory than my mother’s
troops were! Thankfully you don’t kill each other, just the ball!” The fire in
her eyes lights something deep in the pit of Tsukishima’s stomach and before he
knows it, his arms are around her waist, hefting her into a strong embrace. Her
eyes are wide at his actions and he barely remembers to breathe. “Tsukishima-kun,
let me go,” she orders but her voice is soft.

He swallows once, releasing her but just as she turns to go
back to her task he can’t stop from grabbing her hand. “Don’t…don’t go,” he
mumbles, “I…I’m sorry.” She turns, gaze meeting his again, eyes full of
surprise. “There…there’s something different about you and I just…” he trails
off, irritated that she can make him as brainless as Kageyama.

“You what?” she asks quietly, taking a step towards him.

He touches her cheek, his own heating up as his lips form
the words, “I…I like you.”

“Funny way of showing it,” she chides but there’s a playful
glint in her eyes now. He frowns but his eyebrows turn upwards when she reaches
on tiptoes to kiss his cheek. “I like you too, you salty dumbass.”


Kageyama and daughter of Apollo (recognized as a god of
music, truth and prophecy, healing, the sun and light, plague, poetry, and more)
[Aged up to college age so it makes more sense for her to be in a medical
profession. Also, this ended up just being the meet cute rather than the actual
fall in love part]

His first encounter with her is less than preferred as he happens
to be bleeding profusely from his nose thanks to an errant serve from Hinata.
Kageyama has enough trouble dealing with girls as it is but to have one so
beautiful and kind fluttering about taking care of him is almost too much for
the nervous blueberry despite his transition into adulthood.  

“Just sit tight, I’ll be back in a jiff,” she says sweetly,
hurrying from the room.

Kageyama sighs, tilting his head back to hopefully stem the
flow of crimson. When it finally seems to slow down, he resumes a neutral
position, eyes meeting the mirror and he winces at the sight he makes. His
shirt looks like a costume piece for a slash horror film. Grumbling about
killing Hinata, he stands, whipping the stained material over his head and
makes way to the sink.

From behind, he hears a gasp and the clatter of items hitting
the floor. Turning, his face flushes red all the way to his ears but his embarrassment
is momentarily forgotten when he sees that her
nose is bleeding now.

“Are these contagious?” he asks loudly, horrified to think
of the exposure his teammates had to him.

She blinks, confused by his question until a soft plunk against the tile floor draws her
eyes away from the smooth skin and defined muscular lines of the male before
her downward. Eyes widening in dismay, she covers her nose quickly, rushing out
of the room to gather new clean supplies since those she’s brought are now on
the floor.

Using her minimal healing powers, she quickly takes care of
her own issue before heading back to the exam room where she finds Kageyama
seated, still shirtless, on the table.

“Are you ok? Should I get another attendant? Do I need to be
quarantined?” he asks, voice rising in his panic of not knowing what’s wrong
with him.

She can’t help giggling which further confuses him but the
tension in his chest is released when she shakes her head in the negative. “No,
Kageyama-kun, there’s no need. I apologize for the mishap. Here, let me take a
look,” she goes on, gently examining his nose. He winces but otherwise stays
still. “You’re in luck, it’s not broken,” she confirms, “but there will be bruising,
and you’ll have to be extra careful with any strain.”

He sighs in relief, hand on the back of his head. “That’s good,
thanks…”

“_______,” she supplies with a smile. A couple quick
scribbles of writing provides him with a prescription for strong pain killers. “I
know you’re a volleyball junkie,” she teases, “so this stuff won’t put you to
sleep.”

“Thanks again,” he says and grabs his soiled shirt.

“You know, hydrogen peroxide may help get that stain out,
but it may be better just to trash the thing entirely,” she offers.

“Yeah,” he grumbles, shucking it into the trash bin.

“So,” she goes on, taking out another piece of paper and
handing it to him, “if you feel like getting a woman’s input, give me a call.”

Kageyama stutters, blush growing on his cheeks, but he
somehow manages to put one foot in front of the other to exit her exam room,
though his eyes remain on the number scrawled in hasty writing. Taking out his
phone, he enters it before typing out a text.

In the student clinic, the chime of her phone draws ________’s
attention, and the text upon it makes her smile.

Does tomorrow night
work? – Kageyama

Headcanons on Ukai finding out his girlfriend turns into a fairy at night who helps restore life to abandoned forests and heals people in the hospital?

More thanks to @supern-a-vengers for the seeds on this one!


  • Ukai isn’t sure what wakes him up but when he finds his girlfriend
    missing from his bed he isn’t concerned at first, she probably just went to the
    bathroom or something. But as more time passes he grows concerned and goes to
    make sure she’s ok.
  • What he does not expect when he opens the door into the
    hallway is to see her standing by an open window…glowing…with opaque wings
    sticking out of her back!
  • His voice is caught in his throat as she flutters those
    sparkling appendages and leaps out of the window which he rushes to only to
    find her soaring into the night sky.
  • He pinches himself hard, but when he realizes he’s not
    dreaming he rushes to his bedroom to grab his shoes and jacket, though he’s not
    sure if he’ll be able to see her by the time he gets outside. He’s also not
    sure why he’s following her.
  • Upon exit of his home, he sees a faint trail of what he would
    have previously presumed was dust were it not glowing so brightly. Going for
    broke, he rushes through the dark streets in pursuit.
  • When he reaches the edge of a forest, he gulps; it’s awfully
    dark in there. But a momentary flash of light signals the direction to head and
    he charges forward.
  • As he comes upon a clearing, he sees she’s shrunk to the
    size roughly of a humming bird, flitting from flower to flower, sprinkling
    something over their petals. After a short glow, they seem to perk up. In fact,
    the whole area seems brighter and more full of life.
  • She turns, a startled squeak escaping her lips and her eyes
    are wide. How did she not notice him following her?
  • “Keishin,” she whispers, enlarging to her full human form,
    though her wings are still present. “I…I…” she’s at a loss for words.
  • Swallowing his trepidation, mostly at the discovery that the
    supernatural realm is a lot more real than he previously believed, he steps
    fully into the center of the trees, arms open to her.
  • She rushes forward hugging him tightly and he keeps his
    hands on her waist for fear of crushing her wings.
  • “I won’t ask the stupid question of why you didn’t tell me,”
    he mumbles into her hair, “I just…wow, you’re so beautiful.” She pulls away to
    look at him, tears hanging in her eyes. “I mean, I thought you were beautiful
    before,” he flusters, cheeks red, “But this, you…you’re stunning.”
  • She sighs, leaning up to kiss him and he smiles against her
    lips. “So this is why you took so long to stay the night with me,” he chides
    softly, “you have a super secret, forest saving job.”
  • She giggles, tugging his hand towards the entrance of the
    forest. “That’s not all I do,” she confesses. “I…I also heal minor illnesses
    for people in the hospital. I can’t save the full fatal ones,” she goes on
    sadly, “but I can help make sure those who have small diseases don’t get worse.”
  • He stares at her with wide eyes then pulls her into a more
    fierce kiss. “I love you, I love your heart, I love everything about you,” he
    admits and she blushes. He releases her, giving a confident smirk. “Get your
    wings in gear, baby, I’ll be waiting for you at home when you’re done.”
  • She nods, kissing his cheek before soaring into the sky.

headcanons for ukai meeting and falling for a flirtatious and sassy merrmaid for the supernatural au?

  • The
    trip to the beach was supposed to be relaxing but taking twelve rowdy boys to a
    place filled with exposed skin was a decidedly bad idea.
  • Thankfully,
    Ukai had the foresight to bring Sakeo along and she is more than willing to
    help keep them in line.
  • Before
    long their addiction to volleyball outweighs the rush of their hormones and the
    boys are happily playing skins versus shirts; now garnering the attention of
    the females they were formerly oogling. The entire situation gives Ukai a
    headache.
  • He
    goes for a stroll, finding the opening to a cave and the little boy in his soul
    can’t help exploring it. Upon entry, however, his adult self is back in full
    force when the sight of a decidedly beautiful woman comes into view.
  • She
    greets him with a bright smile, waving him over to join her. Lost in a trance
    of sorts, he complies, shucking his shirt and entering the pool she’s in,
    finding the water surprisingly warm.
  • It’s
    when he gets closer that he notices…she has a tail; a mermaid tail. At which
    point he faints dead away into the water.
  • He
    awakens drenched upon his back on the sandy floor, his vision filled with her
    face. When she sees he’s ok she giggles. “If you wanted a kiss, you could have
    just asked,” she teases. It takes a minute for him to realize she saved his
    life.
    • “How…is
      this…are you real?” he asks reaching up to touch her face.
    • “Of
      course, I’m real! What kind of question is that?” she asks a bit miffed.
    • “Sorry!
      It’s just…I’ve never seen your kind before,” he hastily apologizes.
  • She
    pouts a bit, crossing her arms. “That’s because there’s not many of us left.”
    Her voice is sadder now, eyes staring into the distance. But she snaps out of
    it quickly, eyes landing on him once more. “So, tell me about yourself, you’re
    the first human I’ve actually met!”
  • Ukai
    sits up, leaning against the stone of the cave and talks. He tells her about
    himself, his life, his team, his fears, his dreams, all of it. It’s like she’s
    unlocked his ability to be honest with his feelings for the first time in
    decades simply because he knows, there’s no one for her to tell these things to.
  • She
    shares about herself as well, the vast distances she’s traveled and the beauty
    in the depths of the sea not experienced by humans.
    • “Do
      you want to go there?” she asks excitedly.
    • “How?
      I can’t breathe underwater.”
    • “Silly
      goose,” she teases pushing against his chest, the touch warming him all the way
      through, “don’t you think if I’m real, magic is real too?”
  • Ukai
    agrees he never considered that. And so, from that day on he’d meet with her
    once a week on the weekend, traveling far and wide within the sea.
  • Their
    relationship blossoms into deep love, their shared experiences treasured by
    both.
    • “I
      want to stay with you,” he confesses one day years later. He’s no longer a
      coach, the last of “his boys” from the original team he started with long gone
      to college and into their own adult lives. He’s stayed in touch but he knows, no
      human woman will ever fill the void of his mermaid princess.
    • “Then
      let’s go see the witch doctor,” she advises.
  • When
    all the preliminaries are set, he asks if he can say goodbye to his family and
    friends. She agrees, and so he goes, one by one to each of his boys, explaining
    that he’s leaving for good. At first, they don’t understand, don’t believe him,
    think he’s crazy. But he gets them all to agree to come to the shoreline on a
    certain date at a certain time.
  • And
    in the sight of his former team, Takeda and the girls included, Ukai undergoes
    his transformation. Gone are his legs, replaced by a brilliant orange tail.
    There’s many tears of goodbye, but most of them are happy since Ukai is so
    overjoyed to finally be able to travel with his love for the rest of his life.
  • The
    two, mermaid and man, wave goodbye to their shoreline friends, promising to
    come back in a year’s time to see them.
  • And
    none of them ever miss those meetings.

@nsfwhaikyuu-knb

Congrats on 1500!!! That’s amazing! So of course I have to submit a Song Fic request! 🎼 Too many good guys to choose from but how about Ukai with Maroon 5’s “It Was Always You”? Seems like a good one for an older character! Thanks babe!! 😘

haikyuulovercompany:

Thank you, Jade!!! You’re simply amazing to everyone, and I really really hope you like this. It took me so long because I wanted to write something nice for you, and it is the first time someone requests Ukai so it was a bit of a challenge. 
Stay gold, Jade!!

It Was Always You – Ukai Keishin 

Being the coach of a team consisting of teenagers
always took Ukai to a nostalgic trip. As he watched them play he couldn’t help
to remember when he was the one in the court. He was taken back to the time
when he was young, and he had made more than one mistake. 

He suspired with his hands resting on his hips as he
supervised yet another day of training. On that specific day he was absent, and
rather wistful.

Ukai always believed she would always be his best friend. Since high
school and eight years after they had graduated that hadn’t change one bit. But
life is ironic, life is full of unexpected occurrences. 

He couldn’t really call it ‘unexpected’ when it was
ignorance what was at fault. He hadn’t known what he wanted until it was
snatched out from his hands. They had spent their whole life growing side by
side. They were so close that he had never thought of the idea of she being far
away.

Until she started postponing plans, being unavailable,
ending phone calls too soon, he realized something in their current
relationship was changing and he wasn’t exactly delighted by it.

Woke
up sweating from a dream

with a different kind of feeling.
All day long my heart was beating
searching for the meaning.


He had no right to be surprised or shocked. Learning that she was
starting to see someone was the natural course of life. She wanted more,
something new. He didn’t expect her to neglect one of the most basic needs a
human being could have, such as love. He simply never gave it a thought. 

He had never been one to be head-over-heels for someone. He wasn’t the
romantic type of man, he was more of a lone wolf and he had found their
friendly relationship extremely comfortable. So damn comfortable that it never
occurred to him that maybe there was more between them. Why fix something that wasn’t broken?

Now there was something broken, and he didn’t know how to fix it. He stared
as he threw an arm around her shoulders pulling her closer to him. She shyly
smiled and shrunk herself in his arm. Her whole expression shouted the
need of that, of being loved and being treated with love. Their friendship was
beyond marvelous. He could list all the good moments they had shared, and he
would never end counting. But there was only so much a friendship could
provide. It wouldn’t be enough forever.

Eventually a man would see her as the woman she was. And how much he
wished right then that he could be that man. It was an infinitely childish
wish. He had wanted her until he saw her with someone else. Still, Ukai wished
he could turn things around. He hoped for the day when she called him to let
him know it was all over, that the strange man would no longer kiss her lips,
take her hand, or interfere in their lives.

Then, he would play his part. He would show her little by little what
was inside him. He would unveil what was hidden entirely unafraid and ready to
be the man she needed.

Sadly, all of that was only hopeless wishing.

All my
hidden desires finally came alive
No, I never told lies to you so

why
would I
start
tonight?


And as months passed, his heart broke a bit more each day. It was clear as
water that she wasn’t his. She was the woman of another man and he should
accept the reality he had put himself into. Decades of knowing each other, and
he never attempted anything. She would be furious with him.

‘Why now’? She would ask.

Ukai would shrug and shake his head. If only he knew. More than anyone,
he was the one who wished he could’ve realized sooner the truly magnificent
adoration he felt for her. His hands twitched with the urge for her skin every
time he had her in front of him. He was wretched, and in love with the girl he
could never leave, and neither could he have. Because, unrequited love or not, she was still his best
friend, his box of secrets and source of joy. He would never be able to be far
away from her, even if that meant to be hurt. It would be more painful to be
without her.

Hazel
eyes, I was so color blind
We were just wasting time

For
my whole life, we never crossed the line

Only friends in my mind, but now I realize


It was a random Friday night, one of those where he
reunited with some of his old friends to catch up on life. Nights like that
were slowly becoming a rare thing. The more they grew up, the more were the
responsibilities they had to assume.

Ukai was trying to avoid looking her way. His head was
already lighter than usual, and the least thing he wanted was to drop his façade. He
had done and spectacular job by keeping a poker face all those months, but it
could crumble down at any given moment if the right chance was presented to
him. He was going to give that one night to himself.

He had passed the night triumphantly without even
connecting his eyes with hers. He assumed she had gone early, and decided to
put up the ghost act where you simply leave the party without saying goodbye,
so no one really notices you’re gone after awhile.

He said his own goodbyes to his friends making an
unnecessary loud departure. The party inside was still louder than him, either
way. He pulled out a cigar, and lighted it up. The night was humid and hot and
he had no other option but to walk home. As he lifted his head ready to start
his late night journey, he found her standing alone across the street.

He called her name out of instinct. She turned around startled,
but her expression soon changed to an odd, unstable smile.

“You’re leaving already. I didn’t see you all night,” she said to him still
from across the street. She was hugging herself, and there was no cold breeze
to blame for that.

“Is everything okay?” he asked. She showed the odd
smile again and nodded. 

“Yeah. Don’t worry about me, Keishin.”

In other circumstances Ukai might as well had believed
her and continued his way. However, he was mildly drunk and an unprecedented
bravery sprouted from him. He walked up to her, and stood way too close.

He knew how her traits looked when she was fine, when
she was happy. What he was seeing wasn’t similar to joy. He was looking at a
couple of sad eyes clouded with undefined emotions. 

He raised his hand resting it on her cheek. She softly
gasped at the gesture.

“What’s the matter?”

Tears instantly filled her eyes and her lips trembled.
She shook her head. “Nothing I can tell you right now. I just needed a minute
outside.” 

“Is it him?” he dared to ask. She shook her head
again.

“I-I… I’ll talk to you tomorrow. Please, go.”

“What did he do?” his voice was deeper that time
around. If the stranger man had dared to do even the slightest damage to her,
then Ukai couldn’t leave the place just yet.

“Nothing. He has done nothing…” her eyes exanimated
his face, and the third smile she threw at him was one he recognized well. The
smile of nostalgia he gave to his volleyball boys, to old pictures of them in
high school, it was that exact smile. “He just… he isn’t…” she closed her eyes
unable to continue provoking a couple of tears to roll from both her eyes. 

He stared in shock, and the barrier he had created
crashed down. He had begged for a chance, hadn’t he?

He tilted down his head, and with the hand that was
already on her face, he pushed her closer to him pressing his lips on hers.
Ukai felt the surprise, followed by her lips pressing against his and her hands
unhurriedly embracing his neck. 

“He isn’t you,” she whispered after the kiss was
finished. 

Even if I
could not see it all this time

Now
I know why my heart wasn’t satisfied

No more guessing who
Looking back now I know it was always you

——

Thanks for the request! I REALLY hope you liked it!

Ahhhhhh!!! I loved the rememberances and that feeling of nostalgia when you’re watching a repeat of your young life before you.

It ended wonderfully and I felt your interpretation of the lyrics was great!

Thank you so much for writing this! Love coach!!

Fluff responses for Sweetheart Saturday

haiykuties:

*Cracks knuckles* Let’s.get.fluffy!

(Some are short, some are long but all are fluffy, I hope you all enjoy! I had so much fun putting these together!)

Cooking for Tanaka / Feeding Asahi

Tanaka

From the moment he walks in the door Tanaka’s mouth is watering. “Babe, what’re you making?” he hollers while slipping out of his shoes.

“Just simple stir-fry and rice,” you call back, jumping slightly when you feel hands on your waist. For someone so loud, Ryu certainly knows how to sneak up on you when he wants.

He nuzzles his nose in the crook of your neck making you giggle. “There’s something else, what’re you hiding?” he asks tickling your sides.

Squirming, you smack his hand playfully. “Spoil sport,” you grumble but there’s no ire to your tone. Turning your head to look at his face you smile. “I also have melon pan baking.”

He releases you to jump back, pumping his fist in the air. “Yes! My girlfriend is a freaking goddess!” He grabs his phone, taking a picture of you cooking and posts it to his Instagram, tagging Noya and Asahi, the caption reading: My girlfriend cooks for me, I’m the luckiest guy in the world!

Asahi

Worn from a long practice and frustrated that his spikes weren’t as good as he preferred, Asahi flops onto the couch, a deep sigh pulling from his lips.

“Asahi, baby, is that you?” he hears called from the kitchen.

“Yeah,” he answers through a yawn.

Your head pops between the threshold, eyes furrowed in concern. Usually he at least gives you a kiss on the cheek or something. When you see his posture, you know today was a rough one. Taking a deep breath, you head back in the kitchen, gather his meal and walk it out on a tray.

Asahi is so lost in self deprecating thoughts he doesn’t notice you until you’re siding astride his lap. “Wha…oh hey lovie. Sorry, I’m just- ufm!” His apologies and explanation are silenced by a piece of sushi. As he begins to chew, Asahi finally looks at what’s in front of him: a platter of homemade sushi and glasses of cool lemon grass tea. Swallowing, he chuckles, “Not that I don’t appreciate it but what’s the occasion?”

“Does there have to be one?” He watches you pick up another piece, this time without chopsticks, blushing as you place it in front of his lips. You lock eyes and nod, prompting him to open up and accept the offered food. “You had a rough day, baby, I can tell, so let me take care of you.”

Asahi nods, taking a long drink of the tea, then leans forward to kiss you. Pulling back he whispers, “You know dessert has always been my favorite.”

Kenma coffee and apple pie at home date playing Overwatch and cuddling

Dating for Kenma has been…interesting. He’s tried, valiantly in his opinion, to make sure to take you out as frequently as his reclusive nature will allow. It doesn’t help that Kuroo teased him about “hiding you away” or questioning if he was hiding the relationship for some reason. And though he knows his best friend is only jesting, his insecurity about his ability to make you happy flared up something fierce.

But if he’s honest, he’s exhausted and of course it would have to be today of all days that his want…no…his need to stay indoors away from the world has reached a fever pitch.

And it’s your anniversary.

Walking up to your door, clad in simple jeans and a t-shirt with his favorite video game character on it that you gave him for his birthday, he presses his finger to the doorbell.

After a moment, you open the door and just as he’s about to greet you he’s overwhelmed by the smell of hot apples, cinnamon and…coffee?

“Kozume-kun!” you exclaim, throwing the door all the way open to draw him inside.

“He…hey,” he replies, arms wrapping around your waist after a second’s hesitation. He’s still not used to touching you so intimately even after a year.

“Take off your shoes and get comfortable,” you assert, nodding to the couch.

Following the trail of your eyes, his own widen as the sight of a simple sandwich dinner coupled with his favorite chips and a few other snacks come into view. On the TV, the title screen for Overwatch loops.

He looks at you, relief evident on his face. “Go on,” you insist with a big smile. He nods a few times, heading to the couch as directed while you retrieve drinks from the fridge. While playing, both of you consume the simple meal you constructed (including the delicious homemade apple pie) before you lean against one arm of the couch, drawing Kenma between your legs to wrap all your limbs around him.

Planting a kiss on the side of his neck you whisper, “Happy anniversary.”

He pauses the game, sets the controller down and turns, planting a long but sweet kiss to your lips. When he pulls back he whispers back, “I love you.”

Bokuto hugs and snuggles

Bokuto can tell the moment you walk in his room that something’s wrong. “Babe, hey, what’s going on?” he asks setting down his pencil and standing up.

You shrug, eyes cast to the floor. “I…I don’t know…I guess I’m just,” you take in a deep breath. “I’m lonely,” you confess, words barely above a whisper.

Guilt strikes Bokuto like a punch to the gut. He knows he’s been busy, focused not only on practice but the need to stay on top of his grades and get ready for college entrance exams. It’s his hope to earn a scholarship but the best laid plans and all that. But now is not the time for self-deprecation or putting himself in a place where he needs you to draw him back up again. He needs to be strong.

You start when he draws you close in a quick firm embrace, face nuzzling into your hair. “I’m sorry,” he offers, pecking your cheek. You clutch to his shirt, knuckles nestled against his firm back and take a deep breath. He smells faintly of coconut oil. Strong arms lift you easily, carrying you to the bed where he lays on his back, nestling you on top of him.

Idly he draws patterns on your back, the sensation of his touch drawing goosebumps to the surface. His other hand twirls a piece of your hair as he asks, “What do you want to do?”

“This,” you reply, smothering your face against his chest and his deep chuckle makes you smile.

You spend the rest of the night talking about everything and nothing and falling just a little bit more in love with each other.

Cuddling on the couch with Inuoka watching Studio Ghibli

“Ugh, I hate this part,” you whine, turning away from the screen to hide your face against Inuoka’s chest. His laugh is bright as he wraps his arms around your back.

“Sweetie, you’ve seen this movie, what, like 10 times? You know it’s coming,” he teases.

“Yes, but it’s still scary,” you complain, eyes refusing to watch as “No face” chases the main heroine through the bathhouse halls.

He laughs again, a bit softer this time but tightens his embrace and plants a kiss to the top of your head. “Well, you know I’m always here to protect you.”

Tendou as wingman for Ushijima, Ushijima as big sweetheart

“So, which one do you want?” Tendou asks casting his eyes around the bar. Ushijima looks about, expression neutral and shrugs making the red head sigh. “Dude, as your best buddy it is my job to ensure your college experience is not boring. Now, pick one!”

Roaming his eyes over the room, Ushijima shrugs again. Tendou takes a deep breath. “Look, I’m gonna get us some beers, maybe a bit of alcohol will loosen you up. Just stay put.”

Nodding once, Ushijima watches his friend go. A moment later, he’s startled as someone plows into him, almost sending his chair toppling over. Looking up he’s met with wide eyes full of apprehension.

“I…I’m sorry, I…I wasn’t watching and-”

You cast a look over your shoulder, gasping when your ex-boyfriend makes a beeline for you. Without thinking, Ushijima pulls you on to his lap, your startled gasp lost in the din of the patrons around you. The volleyball ace locks eyes with the approaching male, daring him to continue his advance. You see your ex falter, torn between anger and fear but fear wins out and he back peddles, getting swallowed by the crowd a moment later.

“Thank you,” you breathe turning to look at your rescuer.

“No problem,” he replies.

“I’m _______,” you offer, extending a shaky hand to him.

He takes it, shaking once before supplying, “Ushijima Wakatoshi.”

Just as you’re about to get up you hear from behind, “Geez and here I thought you needed help.”

Looking over your shoulder, you’re startled to see a second male, also tall but with fire red hair holding two beers and an incredulous look on his face. Flushing brightly, you’re just about to offer explanations when he sets down his burden, casting a, “Have fun, Toshi,” over his shoulder before he too disappears amongst the throng of people.

A hand settles on your waist, drawing your attention back to Ushijima-san. “So, ______,” he begins, picking up one of the beers and handing it to you, “do you go to school around here?”

Still slightly stunned by this turn of events, you entirely forget that you’re still sitting upon the lap of a stranger, but the longer you talk and he listens, offering small commentary here and there, the less he feels like one.

Nose kisses, tickling, watching shitty horror movies, cuddling, baking with Kuroo

“What time are the guys getting here again?” you ask, arm tiring as the batter you’re stirring begins to thicken.

Kuroo’s long arms wrap around you, hands extracting the bowl and spoon to take over your burden. Leaning down, his breath against your neck makes you shiver as he replies, “Two hours, so stop worrying. Everything will be fine. Why are you so stressed about this?”

You pout, looking over your shoulder. “I’m not stressed, I just want everything to be perfect. This is my first time meeting them and they’re important to you and what if they don’t like me and-Kuroo!”

His hands tickling your ribcage effectively cut off your worrywart rambles. Skirting under his arm, you try to get away but his supremely long limbs make catching up to you easy. He’s back to tickling you, your laughter increasing to a pitched whine the longer he goes. He only stops when you’re practically breathless, body slacking against his when you realize he really intends to stop.

Tilting up your chin, his nose nuzzles yours. “They’ll love you,” he assures replacing his nose with his lips to peck you lightly.

A couple hours later finds you and the entirety of the Nekoma volleyball team ensconced in chairs, couches and the floor of Kuroo’s living room, all of you spluttering and making commentary at the horrid horror movie he picked to watch.

“Could this be any cheesier?” Yaku complains stuffing his mouth with popcorn.

“You know you love it,” chides his captain flinging said snack at his head.

You snicker, extracting yourself from Kuroo’s side to get more drinks. As you re-enter the room you hear Yamamoto say, “________’s amazing! You’re such a lucky bastard, Kuroo-san!”

From over his shoulder Kuroo smirks at you. “I know,” he replies with a wink.

 

HUGE spine cracking hug from Iwaizumi (lol)

Bouncing on the balls of your feet, you scan the crowds eagerly. The week has gone by so slowly, each day feeling like a week within itself since Hajime left for training camp.

“_______, over here!” His deep voice carries over the hum of travelers and you shoot your eyes in the direction of its origin.

Rushing forward, you push through throngs of people. When your eyes land on him, you suck in a breath. You know it’s not possible, but his arms look bigger than you remember. Without pause, you launch yourself into those arms, arms you’ve craved, arms you’ve dreamt about.

He squeezes tightly, face buried against your neck.

*Crack* You gasp slightly, relief flooding your body but Hajime almost drops you in his distress. “Was that your back? Oh my god, did I hurt you? Are you ok?” he shouts, so overcome with worry that he forgets your ear is right next to his mouth.

“I’ve been trying to get that spot all week,” you reply, kissing him.

Iwaizumi is so lost in the sensation of your mouth that he doesn’t even hear Oikawa teasing him for being indecent in public. Or rather, he hears him, he just doesn’t give a shit.

Holding hands with Akaashi

Despite the coolness of the theatre, you’re sweating bullets. And it’s not because of the action movie in front of you, quite frankly you’re glad that Bokuto chose one with such a simple plot because if anyone were to ask you what happened in the last hour and fifteen minutes you wouldn’t be able to form an intelligible answer.

No, the reason you’ve got a racing pulse and sweaty palms is because he’s right next to you. He being the most beautiful boy you’ve ever met. Sure, it’s not common to affirm males as beautiful but he is! From his slightly tousled hair to his natural bedroom eyes, just one glance from him sends your heart into overdrive.

Hence, the minor panic attack ensuing at just the brush of his pinky finger against yours. It was an innocent mistake, both of you reaching for popcorn from the ginormous bucket Bokuto ordered to share with everyone.

But the contact felt electric and left you craving more.

Unconsciously, you rub your hands against your jeans again, dispelling sweat and butter from your skin, the latter no doubt staining the material but you don’t care about that right now. All you can think about is him, his breathing, his scent, his hand-

Which is now gripping yours. Shooting your eyes up to his face, you’re startled to see him looking right at you. “You’re going to rub your skin raw,” he whispers, thumb tracing gently over the palm of your hand. “Better let me keep at least one of them safe,” he concludes, turning his head to face the screen once more, sly smile teasing his lips.

As you settle down, you take time to revel in the appreciation that what you always suspected is right; his hands are so soft.

Baking, cuddles and Disney movies with with Aone

*Ding* The sound of your kitchen timer peals out cheerily.

“Oooo, they’re ready!” you squeal, rushing to the oven and opening its door. From within a warm, mouthwatering scent of wafts out. Grabbing hot pads, you carefully extract the sheet filled with oozing, triple chocolate chunk cookies. From behind, you hear the fridge door open and cast a quick glance at Aone pulling out the pitcher of milk before reaching up and grabbing two tall glasses from the cupboard.

Eager to try your new recipe, you set down the tray, quickly setting one cookie after the other on the cooling rack, though you know more than likely you’ll still end up burning your tongue.

Aone makes his way to the living room, setting down your drinks just as you reach him, a platter piled high with the delectable treats joining their natural accompaniment.

“Did you pick one?” you ask looking up at Aone’s face.

Nodding once, he flicks on the TV, the title screen for Wreck-It-Ralph pops up.

“Ooooo, I haven’t seen this one yet,” you exclaim, happily tucking your feet under yourself on the couch and taking a bite of cookie. It’s ooey, gooey and oh so delicious that you moan in appreciation, the sound drawing a faint flush to Aone’s cheeks. He ignores it, sitting down a little away from you before reaching for a cookie as well. Your hand upon his stops him, his face turning to look at you with slight confusion.

“Here,” you offer, holding out the bitten cookie. Blush intensifying, the gentle giant leans forward, taking a small bite. His eyes grow wide. “Good?” you ask and he nods rapidly.

“Don’t sit so far away,” you grumble, practically climbing into his lap. It makes eating the cookies and milk a bit awkward, but Aone wouldn’t trade having you in his embrace for anything.

Asahi walks in on s/o dancing and singing in underwear and baggy tee

A swivel here, a pop there, your hips move to the beat pulsing in your earbuds as you dance about in blissful ignorance to the fact that Asahi is currently having a minor heart attack watching you. He knows it’s wrong, knows he should look away but how can he when your legs are so exposed and your body is moving so sensuously and…good god he’s going to get a nose bleed if he doesn’t stop staring right now!

Throwing a glance over your shoulder, you wink and crook your finger in a “come hither” motion. Ok, so maybe you weren’t so unaware that he was there. Maybe you timed it perfectly for his entrance into your room and maybe, just maybe, you wanted him to see you.

He swallows thickly, pulse beating in his ears almost as loudly as the tunes in yours.

“Come on, Asahi-san,” you coo, “dance with me.”

Lev giving his s/o stuffed animals “so you don’t miss me when I’m gone”

“I’ll call you every night,” Lev’s says stuffing two more pairs of shorts and three shirts haphazardly in his bag. He rushes to the bathroom to grab his toothpaste and brush. “And I’ll text you after every win,” he calls.

Snapping his fingers, he dives into his closet, throwing items this way and that. “Now where did I…ah ha!” he exclaims, long lithe body standing to his full height once more.

As he turns, into view comes a stuffed kitten, black with green eyes. Placing it in your hands, his own grasp your shoulders and he looks in your eyes. “For snuggling with while I’m not here, so you don’t miss me while I’m gone.”

You smile, tilting up on tiptoes to plant a peck on his lips. Taking his hand, you walk with him to the school, the rest of the team waving as the two of you arrive. Lev envelopes you in a long, tight hug, your feet dangling. “I’ll see you in a week,” he says kissing you one last time.

Later than night, as he’s preparing for bed, he’s surprised to find a teddy bear nestled under his clothes. Drawing it out, he hugs it, pleased to find you’ve sprayed his favorite perfume that you only wear for him on it. Taking in a deep breath, he smiles at your note: “So you don’t miss me while you’re gone.”

He does, he misses you every minute, but when he lays down, bear tucked under his arm, the sting of you not being here is a little less and he sleeps easy every night.  

Sneaking up behind and pouncing for rainy day cuddles with Hinata

The rain beats against the window which fogs as your breath hits it. It’s been raining for days on end, the sun refusing to shine. Normally you enjoy this weather, but something about today is drawing up your melancholy.

A creaking floorboard is all the warning you receive before Hinata springs, body landing upon your back and lips descending on your cheek. “_______!” he exclaims and you can’t help giggling when he tickles your neck with his hair.

“Come cuddle with me,” he says happily and you nod, allowing yourself to be drawn to the loveseat, the storm now a comforting background as Hinata’s warmth envelopes your entire being.

You were wrong, the sun did show up today.

Cuddles with Suga

The blaring of your alarm makes you groan. Why does he have to get up so damn early? Rolling over, you slam a hand to the snooze button, mumbling something about starting breakfast but before you can get up, Suga pulls you into his arms.

“Five more minutes,” he mumbles against your back.

“Koushi-kun, you’ll be late and you know how those boys are. Especially Daichi.”

His grip tightens, lips pressing delicate kisses to your skin making it hum. “They can start without me, I’m not letting you go. Besides, that’s the beauty of having two coaches. One of us can be late if we need.” He rolls closer, leg draping over your hips. “Or if we just choose to.”

You sigh dramatically but smile, hands settling over his and squeezing as your eyes close once more, content to lay in the arms of your love for as long as he wants.
