#kghn, v-day.

on their third year, yachi brings candy to gift to all of her friends on valentine's day.

that day, hinata arrives slightly late to school and sees yachi give a heart-shaped lollipop to kageyama.

hell breaks loose when he sees him accept it.

something ugly happens inside of him, a sensation that's too close to the sickness he felt when he was an inexperienced boy facing the volleyball court for the first time.

only this is worse. way worse.

because this time he doesn't feel like he might shit himself, he feels as if his heart's being ripped apart and stomped on.

why did yachi give /kageyama/, of all people, a confession? wasn't she crushing on that girl with the pretty black hair?

hinata lets it get to him, even when he knows better than that. the entire day he's distracted, and for the first time ever he feels slightly doubtful on whether he should go to practice or not.

but only slightly, because the answer is always yes of it's volleyball, if it's...

kageyama nods his head to hinata as a greeting. like always.

hinata looks away to talk to tsukishima. like never before.

he just needs a distraction. anything to get himself more time before he sees kageyama and yachi all... all mushy or whatever.

"what are you doing," tsukishima says when hinata keeps going on and on about his morning, about how he had to take natsu to school.

"huh?"

"what. are you doing," tsukishima repeats. "why are you talking to me?"

hinata's about to air his problems but does a double take first.

"wha— hey, we talk!"

"yes. but you're usually arguing with the king by this time, not talking to me."

hinata looks at him with a frown.

"n-no i don't. shut up."

"so this is about the king, huh?"

man, screw tsukishima and his annoying smirk.

"i don't know what you're talking about."

"sure. well, let's play. better change fast."

/man/. screw tsukishima altogether.

hinata puts on his uniform and runs to the love of his life.

the volleyball court.

it seems fitting to be there in a day about love. for a moment there, he forgets all about yachi and stupid kageyama.

well, that is until...

"sho-kun, hi!" yachi greets him. "i wanted to give this to you before classes but i didn't see you."

hinata looks down and is greeted with...

a? heart-shaped? lollipop?

"um," he says as he grabs it. "wh-why?"

his friend smiles when she explains.

"ah, this year i wanted to do a nice gesture for my friends! i've been giving everyone their lollipops since the day started."

ah.

yes, this does make more sense.

"thank you..." is all he can say, and as he grabs the lollipop he laughs. he really is dumb sometimes, huh.

he hugs yachi tightly, relieved that it was nothing to be worried about, and is about to let go when he hears kageyama.

"no, i was gonna confess first!"

and. uh.

what?

"what?" yachi asks, breaking the hug.

"hitoka, why are you confessing to him? i thought you knew—"

and, honestly, hinata has to laugh. they must really be soulmates if they both thought the same stupid thing.

his laughter doesn't let kageyama finish.

"hey, stop laughing, i was gonna—"

this time, kageyama's interrupted by hinata's hand on the back of his neck and a peck that makes him blush.

"silly-yama," hinata murmurs with a smile. "how can you think that?"

there's silence in the gym.

"oh, my god" hinata hears from someone. probably tsukishima, who's holding his own yachi-lollipop with a smirk.

"finally," someone sounding too similar to nishinoya says.

"you..." kageyama babbles.

"talk after practice," hinata promises. "that if you beat me on warm-ups."

and even when you can't really /win/ at warm-ups, kageyama smiles.

"you're on."
