warnings: none
notes: in which you sing sappy love songs that make their heart race

↳ kageyama tobio. ✢ you weren't the vocally affectionate type and neither was kageyama. your relationship was built around that fact and to be honest, it made your relationship strong. ✢ there's no need for constant validation when you feel his sincerity everytime he leaves your favorite drink on your desk when you are too busy over a project to bother staying hydrated or when he tosses you his jacket when it's cold, mouth automatically moving to berate your forgetfulness if only to hide his flushed cheeks and the gleaming concern beneath his ocean blue eyes. ✢ anyways, kageyama doesn't shy away from his love... that is, if you recognize the small cues he does since it can be pretty blurry at the beginning. ✢ also if you learn to take his unintentional insults and namecalling as an expression of love. ✢ but like any other person in the world, kageyama wasn't a stranger to insecurities. ✢ he wonders if that's enough. if he's enough. ✢ he wonders if what he's doing is enough to make you stay unlike most people in his life. ✢ and of course, you would notice the desperate look in his eyes, the tighter grip in your hand that was borderline hurtful, and the constant need to be around you. ✢ you recognize his weakness and it hurt to see him like this. ✢ so you endeavored to do something to help him realize how special he truly is. ✢ the problem was you didn't know what it was. ✢ the answer came to you as you both lounged around his bedroom. you were sitting on his bed as you shuffled through your playlist while he laid beside you, tossing a volleyball mindlessly. ✢ a certain song got your heart racing and you moved to pull out one of your headphones and place it into kageyama's ear. ✢ he looked at you weirdly but stayed silent, listening to the melody that ran through it. seeing that you caught his attention, you cleared your throat, hands getting cold as anxiety and regret began sinking in. ✢ still, the first note hit and you shuffled closer to kageyama. stiff fingers clinging onto his shirt as you looked down. ✢ "hold me close, through the night. don't let me go, we'll be alright." you sang against his neck as you cuddled closer. though it came out to be a little muffled and soft, kageyama heard you and your sincerity perfectly clear. ✢ warmth tinted his cheeks and ears in a lovely rose hue. he wondered if you could hear the rapid beats of his heart because he sure as hell could. ✢ your voice was shaky, often going from one key to another but kageyama thought it was the most beautiful thing he has ever heard. not that he’ll ever admit that. ✢ he rose a hand to cover his cheeks that were flaming by now. you were making him so flustered and mushy. he wants you to stop because he was afraid he'll overheat but at the same time, he wants this moment to continue forever because you were just so cute. ✢ the song ended and you both stood silent, not knowing what to say. kageyama figured words wouldn't mean much anyway. you conveyed yourself enough and he was thankful for it as he felt his fluttering heart grow a ton lighter. ✢ he held you close that night, as you sang to him, and just before he could succumb to sleep, he heard you mutter something that made him smile genuinely. ✢ "i was made for loving you."
↳ kozume kenma. ✢ kenma had a lot of strange antics. ✢ for example, he would curl up in the corner of the room regardless of how cramped it is. ✢ actually, you believe he prefers it when the empty space was kept to a minimum. ✢ you asked him about it and he said he did it subconsciously. ✢ not to say you were a genius but you figured that it was probably because he felt protected that way. ✢ when his back is against the wall, he didn't need to worry about someone coming up at him from behind. ✢ when his sides are pressed against something, he doesn't need to worry about you or kuroo poking his sides to get his attention. ✢ all he needs to focus on is his front and with his eyes easily spotting whoever comes by, he feels more secure. ✢ in a similar way, kenma had a lot of strange antics when it comes to dating you. ✢ he doesn't really like to hug you in bed but he will curl up against your side, a hand clutching your clothes or your hand to make sure you're there. ✢ he doesn't prefer hand-holding when your walking on the streets either but he will stand a little bit closer to you and his eyes would periodically lift from his screen to scan his surroundings to make sure nothing can harm you. ✢ he doesn't share much of his day to day life seeing as it's pretty mundane but if you're the one who's sharing something, he would sneakily mute the game he's playing so he can focus on your voice and the content of your words. he makes sure that he remembers each and every one of your stories no matter how insignificant they may be. ✢ he doesn't like losing especially when it comes to games but he would occasionally let you win on purpose if it meant he would see you smile and cheer as if you won the olympics. ✢ kenma wasn't your typical boyfriend in the streets that would give you red roses but he would give you your favorite snack and drink along with an offer to be his player two in a multiplayer game he spent hours looking for just so he can share something with you. ✢ and honestly, that's fine. you like it that way. ✢ in one snack run you two had, kenma noticed you suddenly paused your rambling so he looked up only to see you staring at a lovey-dovey couple. ✢ he suddenly thought about your peculiar relationship and wondered if you would appreciate it more if he was more 'typical' ✢ in reality, you were only staring because the girl was showing his boyfriend a limited edition keychain of the character you use whenever you play super smash bros with kenma. ✢ you noticed that your boyfriend's silence was different as you walk back to your house. ✢ you thought back to what you did that might have bothered him. ✢ again, not to say you were a genius but you figured that it was probably because of the staring. ✢ you sat with him on the couch, leaning your head on his shoulder as your eyes traced the way his fingers moved across the buttons of his console. ✢ you started humming, kenma didn't mind since you tend to do this often. ✢ "making new clichés on our own little tour. let's ride. you don't have to say i love you to say i love you. forget all the shooting stars and all the silver moons." ✢ as you started mumbling the lyrics, his movements stuttered. ✢ he liked how you knew what was troubling him without him needing to tell you, even more so, addressing the issue in a way you didn't put him on the spot unnecessarily. ✢ of course, he knew you wouldn't hesitate to communicate with him if needed and that's comforting. ✢ he's both thankful and soft. he realizes that you're really his one in a billion— his co-player in life. ✢ kenma smiled lightly, eyes never leaving the screen but he did nuzzle his nose into your hair briefly and that caused you to smile contentedly. ✢ "all i need is you."
↳ kuroo tetsurou. ✢ it was a regular sunday morning. ✢ you managed to drag kuroo out of the bed despite his very tempting offer of warm cuddles in bed. ✢ alas, spring cleaning was a must and you have procrastinated long enough. ✢ you were enthusiastically sweeping the floor as you moved your hips from side to side to the beat of the music being blasted by the speakers. ✢ outside, kuroo was bobbing his head as he outrooted the weeds that were growing on your mini-garden. ✢ he took a moment to eye the potted cactus that was at the corner. ✢ it was a gift from you, long before you had started dating. ✢ he was constantly picking on you because he thought your reactions were cute and the only reasonable, not out of character thing he can do to have some semblance of interaction with you was to tease the hell out of you. ✢ you had given him a prickly cactus on the verge of death to respectfully tell him to leave you alone. ✢ he thought it was cute and his heart fluttered badly. you gave him a gift! it even had a ribbon on it! ✢ it was black carrying your wish for him to accidentally trip on a six feet hole dug especially for him. ✢ kuroo researched a lot about plants, more specifically, how to revive a dying cactus. ✢ he did the unimaginable and revived it. ✢ and gave it a name. ✢ he showed it off to you and you were surprised he managed to pull the whole revival thing off. ✢ you were quite flattered if you were to be honest. ✢ if you were to be asked about it, you would say that that was the day you fell for the mess that was kuroo tetsurou. ✢ going back, you asked for the cactus' name and he grinned at you. it's not even his usual shit-eating grin, it was a bright, genuine one. ✢ "y/n". ✢ you laughed and for the first time, you actually thought he was an intriguing person. kuroo realized he was in love when he saw your glow as you snorted through your nose. ✢ kuroo treasures that moment a lot. so much so, that he keeps taking care of the plant. years later, it's still alive and he brings it with him whenever he moves. ✢ he snapped out of his daze when he hears you squeal. he walks over to you out of curiosity and watched the strange sight that greeted him with a soft, endearing smile. ✢ lo and behold, you were using your broom as your microphone as you belted out the notes of the song you were soulfully jamming to. ✢ "it's not a walk in the park to love each other. but when our fingers interlock, can't deny, can't deny, you're worth it." ✢ your gaze caught his and he unfurled his arms, ready to tease you to the hell and back as he was expecting you to shy away. ✢ except you didn't do that. you sent him a cheeky wink and stared at him as you sang the next lines. your voice was softer now, more genuine as if it was you who sew the words together, wrapped it in an envelope, and sealed it with a kiss all for him. ✢ "'cause after all this time, i'm still into you." ✢ his heart skipped a bit and his teasing grin fell a little as he struggled to regain his composure. ✢ you giggled before averting your eyes away. going back to passionately banging your head and jumping around as you reach the chorus. ✢ grabbing the nearby duster, kuroo jumped in your fun causing you to glow brighter than before. ✢ your light when you smile was incomparable, kuroo thought as he half-screamed the lyrics to the song that he found to be eerily close to how he feels about you. ✢ amongst the misplaced items and forgotten cleaning supplies scattered in a tiny living room, two young hearts sang your hearts out, eyes crinkled, cheeks sore from laughter and voice raspy from your throats' unwanted workout but happily in love. ✢ "baby, not a day goes by that i'm not into you."

kenma
kenma was not looking forward to going on a run with you this morning, but you forced him to anyway
going on some weird shit about needing to stay in shape or something
but while the two of you were running, he tripped on a pebble and landed right on his face
and when he came up, there was a funny looking red mark on his face
as much as you tried to keep it in, you just couldn’t take it anymore and bust out, hysterically laughing
he just rolled his eyes at you and walked the rest of the way home
but then he ignored you at school the entire day
you thought, “he can’t be that mad???”
but even when the team hung out at his house that night, he wouldn’t talk to you
when you first arrived, you didn’t expect the movie to be so boring.
but now, it’s only half an hour through, and you can feel yourself nodding off slowly.
you’ve been trying to pay attention, you really have, but it’s been a long day and you’re trying with everything you have not to completely pass out. kenma’s sitting right next to you, though he still isn’t speaking to you.
your boyfriend has been so petulant and childish all day. so what, you laughed at him! anyone would do that. right?
even so, while you’re pretty sure he’s just being petty, you also want to cuddle, and he’s not budging.
but as the forty-minute mark hits, you finally succumb to sleep, and flop over into his lap. he sighs, rolls his eyes, and picks you back up, putting you upright. you hum and fall back into him, to which he shoves you back up, and you look up at him with puppy eyes.
“kenma, i wanna cuddle.”
he side-eyes you for a minute before shrugging.
“should’ve thought about that before you laughed at me this morning.” there’s satire in his tone, but you’re getting tired of his pettiness. you just want to sleep.
“please?” you whine, tugging at his sweatshirt. he scoffs.
“if you wanna cuddle with someone, why don’t you cuddle with lev instead?” he suggests, monotone, full well knowing you won’t. he knows you’ll keep begging him until he relents, but he thinks it’d be a little fun to watch you plead for a little more.
but what he doesn’t expect is for you to grunt petulantly and move over to your other side before plopping into lev’s lap and resting your head on his chest.
lev grunts softly in surprise, turning red. he looks over to kenma, who is fuming. he looks back at you, and then back at him, and shrugs.
to be completely honest, kenma had wanted to see how you’d react to him ignoring you for the entire day. but seeing the way lev’s long limbs drape over you, the way you look comfortable situated on his lap, he decides the end result was probably not worth it.
kenma glares at you, but you don’t sense his eyes on you. instead, you snuggle into the fabric of lev’s shirt, snoring softly.
then lev pats at your head gently and kenma thinks he’s had enough, so he scoots over, scoops you up, and puts you in his own lap instead. you moan softly.
“smell nice,” you mumble, inhaling his scent in the sweatshirt he’s wearing. he scoffs.
“you’re terrible, you know that?”
“you love me.”
he pauses, looking away, cheeks heating up.
“...yeah. whatever.”

ushijima
ushi invited the adlers over to hang out at your shared apartment tonight
but he was still being passive aggressive at you for what happened this morning
essentially, you’d both gone grocery shopping
but you wouldn’t let him get that one bag of chips he liked, because you already had like,, 6 of them at home
this is how the conversation went:
“toshi, we have those at home.”
“not very many. it wouldn’t hurt to get more.”
“babe, we don’t need it!”
“but if i’m paying for it, don’t you think i should be allowed to purchase them?”
“toshi, i’m not going to let you buy them. we have too many at home!”
you pulled him away from the aisle and he sulked the entire way home
he’s still mad at you tho😐
it’s been at least an hour, and you still don’t understand the game at all.
no matter how many times you’ll watch the boys take their turns, it still doesn’t make any sense.
you’d scrolled through your phone for a bit, but even that got boring, and now you’re just getting sleepy. even with how loud they are, you can feel yourself growing tired.
very slowly, their voices start to grow distant, and your eyes start to close.
no longer able to hold yourself up, you finally slump over into your boyfriend’s lap. but immediately after, he’s picking you up and moving you back over.
you whine sleepily. “toshi, wanna sleep.”
he pretends to be engrossed in the game.
“not now, y/n.”
you ignore him anyway and fall right back into his lap, to which he picks you right back up and sitting you back down. you glare at him.
“sleep somewhere else,” he mutters, not looking at you.
you sigh dejectedly, and look around. all the boys are contributing their own attention to the game, except for kageyama, who is checking something on his phone. you decide you’ll sit by him.
you scoot over to his side and slip into the space between his arm and his side, fitting into his presence nicely. you snuggle into him and resume your sleep, and he looks down at you, confused. then he looks up to see ushijima, who doesn’t look very happy at the sight.
the two of them exchange looks stoically, kageyama’s of confusion and wakatoshi’s of jealousy. kageyama shrugs and looks back down at his phone.
no longer paying attention to the game, toshi grunts petulantly. he observes the way your face is completely obscured by kageyama’s sweatshirt, nose buried in the fabric. he shifts uncomfortably. you should be with him instead.
but his pride butts into his thoughts, so he attempts to focus on the game instead. but then you’re moaning softly in your sleep against tobio, and with his pride forgotten, he crawls over to where you’re sitting and takes you out from under kageyama’s arm. he sits in his seat and lays you on his chest, grunting softly.
“toshi?” you blink, looking up at him. “i thought you were mad at me.”
he refuses to look at you, making a noise that’s more like a reluctant grunt than a response, cheeks heating up slightly.
“you have to buy me more chips.”
you laugh.
“okay, toshi.”

bokuto
um🧍🏻♀️
you thought it would be a lil bit funny to prank bokuto, wanting to see if he’d react the way you predicted
so you walked up to him and asked him a question
“hey bo, why can’t you spike like sakusa?”
his hair, just fluffed up excitedly at the prospect of you asking him a question about his volleyball skills, deflated sadly
his shoulders drooped dejectedly
“hey! what’s that supposed to mean?”
when you explained that it was a prank, he huffed childishly, crossing his arms and turning away
“kou, i was just kidding!”
“suuure.”
but when lunch rolled around, and the MSBY boys were over for some team bonding, he was still ignoring you😐
“wanna cuddle?” you offer to your boyfriend, who is sitting next to you on the couch. you’re all swaddled up in his clothes, and while the sight is adorable, he remembers that he’s supposed to be mad at you. he scoffs and turns away.
you sigh. he’s still in his mood?
so instead you just decide you’ll sit next to him for the time being. hinata and atsumu are sitting on the floor, playing some type of childish game to decide who gets the last bun, and you laugh, taking it in.
but all that food you’d eaten just half an hour ago was enough to make you sleepy, and you feel as though you could slip into a food coma at any second.
at some point, you just don’t have it in you to stay awake, and topple over into bokuto’s lap, already half asleep. he blinks at your figure before pushing you back up onto your side of the couch.
ignoring his gesture, you slip back into his lap, situating yourself comfortably, before he pulls you back up into sitting.
you rub at your eyes. “bo,” you mumble. “just this once?” you plead. he huffs.
“why don’t you go and snuggle with sakusa instead? since he’s ‘so great,’” he mumbles childishly, imitating your voice whinily. you scoff.
“fine,” you mutter, getting up and moving onto the other couch, where sakusa is sitting alone. you sit down next to him and then lay your head in his lap, closing your eyes peacefully. kiyoomi is barely phased, looking up at bokuto for a second before returning to his phone.
bokuto squirms jealously, wanting to stomp around and throw a tantrum. you just look so cute and warm and soft but you’re in SAKUSA’S lap?! how rude.
to think just this morning you had compared him, your own boyfriend, to sakusa, and now you’re cuddling him? koutaro glares at you, but you don’t see it.
so like he’s been doing this whole time, he turns his nose up away from you and pretends not to care. but out of the corner of his eye, he sees sakusa lay a hand on your cheek, moving your hair out of your face and away from your mouth, and gets up without thinking.
“hey, get someone of your own before stealing mine!” he complains, scooping you up out of sakusa’s lap and cradling you gently. sakusa just exhales, looking up at bokuto and shrugging.
koutaro sits you down on his lap, holding you tightly against his chest. he can feel your chest inhaling and exhaling rhythmically, and you stir.
“thought you didn’t wanna cuddle,” you tease, poking at his face. he hmphs and pokes you right back.
“you’re so mean to me.”
you giggle, resting your head right back on his chest.
“yeah. i know.”

Okay but imagine Kenma being your best friends brother
Like, if you were the biggest cry baby and he had the audacity to do the fake gum thing that would electrocute you and then you just started bawling 😭. Then your bestie/his sister would make him apologize and you would only stop crying when he finally have you his Nintendo switch. Idk I just thought it was cute
