This is a stupid thought, but not baseless, and this is probably what makes Kageyama anxious. They have matured, resolved many issues and now have years of love under their belts, and even if they keep reminding him they are happy and that they wouldn't have it any other way, Kageyama can't help the little voice in his head telling him to be careful. Telling him to not screw up, to remain composed, to listen to what people say (generally speaking).
He just spent so many years wondering if they would ever go back to the way they were in middle school that the fear of being hated again lingers in his mind.
So he's been extra nice since they moved in together, preparing breakfast when he can and giving words of encouragement when they need them (even though he's sure they aren't that effective). If they're looking at him funnily because of his antics, they don't force an answer out of him, and he's glad for that. Kindaichi smiles at him and gives him a one-arm hug almost daily, Kunimi gives him a nod that is full of gratitude and his eyes just light up long enough for Kageyama to notice. They live peacefully. They fight sometimes, of course, but nothing irreparable.
One day at lunch Kunimi brings up a topic that they haven't talked about ever since they moved in.
“My boss says that I'm probably going to get transferred soon in the South. Something about polishing my skills with a senpai.”
“Yeah? I guess that was bound to happen,” Kindaichi replies, thoughtful. “Do you know how long?”
“Not yet. Long enough for you guys to miss me, I hope.”
“We're not going to miss the crumbs you leave on the couch or your burnt omelets.”
Kunimi rolls his eyes and Kindaichi grins, while Kageyama lets out a small chuckle. They rarely leave Kunimi on his own in the kitchen for fear he's going to burn the whole place down with his carelessness, though he seems to try developing a keener sense of self-preservation.
“The house won't really feel the same without all three of us in it,” Kageyama adds, and earns a few puzzled looks. He fidgets in his seat. “Isn't it true? I mean, we've been living here together for a couple of years, so...”
“Yeah, I get what you mean,” Kunimi says. “If Kindaichi isn't here every morning to monopolize the bathroom, I would get nervous.”
“Hey!”
“And if we don't have entire packs of milk stored in our kitchen I would think something's wrong.”
Kageyama stays quiet for a moment, processing what Kunimi just said while Kindaichi is making indignant noises about him not monopolizing the bathroom. Habits are said to be hard to break.
“Do you really mean it?” he finally asks.
“Mean what?”
“That something would be wrong?”
Kunimi stares at him, then reaches across the table to flick him on the forehead. Kageyama yelps, his hands flying to the injured area, and he's outright pouting.
“What was that for?!”
“Of course I mean it, idiot,” Kunimi deadpans. “You live here. You're stuck with us.”
When the silence stretches, Kunimi nudges at Kindaichi to say something too, and Kindaichi looks like he doesn't know where to begin.
“Yeah, we love you, you know? That wouldn't be normal for us not to miss you when you're not here.”
Kageyama's heart is racing, but in a good way, making him feel giddy and relieved, a bit too excited for simple words.
This isn't in his habits, but he gets up and asks all the same.
“Can I hug you both?”
They are probably too stunned to properly answer, but Kageyama wraps his arms around them and softly laughs. A second later he's patted on the back, accompanied by fond whispers of 'stupid' and 'dumbass'.
