but there is some pda!!!

He looks at the small soft way Haru’s hair falls into his eyes as he sleeps, a sigh escapes his mouth. It’s morning, light filtering into the room in a golden stream. He traces his eyes over the planes of his face, they’re familiar, the slope of his nose, the way his lips pout as he snores,

Makoto knows this is home.

Familiarity.

Haru stirs, eyes lazily blinking into consciousness. He doesn’t say anything when he catches Makoto staring at him.

“Good morning,” Makoto says brightly, quietly. It’s still early. They shouldn’t even be awake really. It’s Saturday, neither one has a class to rush to; Makoto’s part time job doesn’t require him to be there until late afternoon.

Haru hums, a barely visible smile on his lips, small. Just a slight twitch of his lips. Makoto brushes his lips against the other’s forehead.

“Sleep well?”

Haru nods, scooting in closer, tucking his head right underneathe Makoto’s chin. He wraps his own larger limbs around Haru, cocooning him under the covers.

And it works, as he hears the distant honking of a horn, and warm warm arms snaking around his middle, under his sleep shirt. Haru’s only mission is to touch, feel.

Fingers carefully working their way up the notches of his spine. He shivers into the simple touch.

Saturday is Makoto’s favorite day, for this.
Just this.
With Haru, who’s part of his entire world, the sleepovers that progressed from childhood giggling, to sneaking out to meet their friends during middle school.

And high school--the painfully shy, confessions. The heat that radiated off their cheeks, and the impossible ocean of Haru’s eyes, a thousand confessions held there.

But these moments are ephemeral, because as soon as winter comes, summer begins under the equator, and Haru will be there, thousands of miles away.

They can make it work. But time slips fast, especially when you’re too busy enjoying it. He doesn’t worry.

He thinks about this moment, living it, feeling now how Haru presses soft chaste kisses to his chest, before looking up with flushed cheeks.

“Don’t look at me like that,” he mumbles, gently pushing Makoto’s cheek away.

“Why?” He teases in return.

“You’re eyes are too green.”

“Sorry,” he laughs softly, muffling the sound in Haru’s silky black hair.

He doesn’t have a retort ready ;Haru presses soft soft lips to Makoto’s own.

“Fine,” he mumbles. Makoto like this, with him. This is alright.

Suteki da ne
Futari te o tori aruketa nara
Ikitai yo
Kimi no machi, ie, ude no naka

Translation:
Isn't it wonderful,
To walk together holding hands
I do so want to go,
To your city, your house, into your arms.

- Suteki da ne, Final Fantasy X theme song

Kuroo Tetsurou/Kenma Kozume, Haikyuu!!

...I own an official soft kitty hoodie okay >_>

--------------

Sometimes Kuroo liked watching foreign television shows over the internet. Kenma thought this was a weird hobby when they weren't subtitled. He also knew Kuroo barely spoke a word of English and couldn't possibly follow what was going on.

Still, he tried not to complain about raucous laugh tracks and pop music when Kuroo lounged on his bed with Kenma's laptop balanced precariously on his knees. He had games to conquer, and if Kuroo wanted to spend another lazy weekend together like this, so be it. He might voice a complaint or two once Kuroo inevitably started commenting on what he thought the plot was, though.

"Oho, check out the dress that blonde chick is wearing! She must be going on a date, right? Ohoho, but her friend with the glasses looks jealous, I bet he's gonna-"

"Kuro. You're too loud. I can't concentrate on this level."

Kenma shifted restlessly beside him on the mattress, golden eyes riveted on his PSP screen. Kuroo smirked and ruffled his pudding hair. Kenma mewled in annoyance but couldn't do anything about it – he needed both hands on the controls, and Kuroo knew this all too well. Kenma retaliated by maneuvering a foot between them to kick Kuroo repeatedly in the ribs until he left Kenma's hair alone.

Kuroo guffawed loudly and nearly dropped the laptop. "That's ticklish and you know it," he chortled. "Also your feet are tiny and cold– oi, careful, do you want to break your computer?"

Kenma's eyes narrowed, though he didn't look up. "I want you to go downstairs and watch K-dramas with my mom. You two can talk all you want about fictional foreigners being jealous of who dates whom."

Kuroo's lazy smirk grew broader. He paused the video, set the laptop aside, and rolled over to sprawl his long limbs over Kenma. "Your mom doesn't let me cuddle her as much," he murmured into the nape of Kenma's neck.

"I should hope not, you're underage," Kenma deadpanned. Kuroo nuzzled in closer and started pressing kisses against any bare skin he could find. Kenma shivered and curled more tightly around his PSP. He made a small whimpering noise as teeth nipped lightly at his collarbone, then blushed in embarrassment.

"Kuro, I wanna finish this level…" Kenma whined. The video game was already difficult enough without a clingy boyfriend trying to tease him. "You're so distracting. Go back to your dumb American television and let me concentrate."

"So cold," Kuroo announced with feigned sadness, but not before he leaned over and licked a wet stripe up Kenma's cheek. Kenma squalled in disgust and hammered his heels into Kuroo's stomach, knocking the wind from him.

"Eww, you're disgusting, it's so wet, I hate you, wipe it off I need my hands—"

Kuroo guffawed again before blotting his saliva with his sleeve. "There, I made it aaaall better," he drawled, before starting up his show again.

They lay in relative silence for a while, listening to the combined soundtrack of the RPG and chattering English voices. Kenma leaned his back into Kuroo's side, drawn automatically to the comforting warmth beside him. He tensed briefly as he felt fingers in his hair, but this time it wasn't to muss and tease. Kenma sighed contentedly as Kuroo stroked his hair the way he liked, slow and gentle.

The afternoon sun was warm through the window. Kenma shifted slightly to offset the glare on his handheld screen. Kuroo yawned as the episode ended, and slumped back over to snuggle against Kenma's back. Kenma wasn't paying much attention as Kuroo clicked lazily through the downloads folder, but perked up when he heard a song playing.

"What's this?" he murmured, fighting off a yawn of his own.

"It's from that show. I Googled the lyrics and it's about a cat. Thought you might like it," Kuroo whispered. He kept stroking Kenma's hair as he hummed the lullaby under his breath.

"…Not fair," Kenma muttered before finally pausing his game. He could barely keep his eyes open.

"I don't know what you're talking about," Kuroo lied pleasantly. He pressed a chaste kiss to the back of Kenma's head, and used his free hand to move the PSP out of harms way. "It's not like warm sunlight, gentle melodies, and getting petted has any effect on you. You're not an actual cat, right?"

But Kenma had already drifted off to sleep.

I'm really glad you liked this so much ;v; Aya and Miki are so cute together! I love first episode grumpy protective Aya and overly friendly Miki; it makes me wonder about their history and how they got to that point :) So it was fun to write this, thanks for the cute prompt!

“Oh my god.” Naruko takes a long drink of whatever brand of sour beer Toudou bought and presses a hand to his chest to quell his fluttering heart. “Headband-san... you could've warned me.”

Currently, the twelve of them, all of Sohoku and Hakogaku's former Inter-high teams, are crowded around the coffee table in the back house of the Toudou-an, sloshing back beer and other spirits in some semblance of a cross-high school reunion.
“What?? What is it? Is the beer too strong?” Toudou, in the throes of hosting, fails to notice what Naruko is referring to. “Did I give you the one Tadokoro likes to drink? I did, didn't I!” Naruko lets Toudou fuss and pull the beer from his hands, squawking like a broody chicken as he scuttles off to the refrigerator for another.

No matter, Naruko already feels kind of drunk from the view. The view is Izumida, namely, Izumida's prized abs and pecs.

Luckily, the low roar of conversation is loud enough for him to slide across the couch unnoticed and whisper to Onoda.

“Are you seeing this, Onoda-kun?” The small climber jumps in his seat, tipping some beer onto the floor and apologizing faintly to no one at all, before realizing Naruko is, in fact, talking to him.

“Seeing what? Is something happening, Naruko-kun?”

“No, no, just. Look.” Naruko surreptitiously points across the table to where Izumida has stripped off his shirt and is preening over his muscles to a sleepy-eyed Shinkai. Shinkai is clearly a great deal drunker than Izumida, who has left his beer pretty much untouched. They laugh, and their abs ripple in a way that makes Naruko feel warm all over and like his binder is too tight and too thick, all of a sudden.

Onoda is crimson, hiding his face behind his hands. “N-naruko-kun!”

Toudou scurries over with another beer and presses it into Naruko's hands, and he pops it open and takes another long draught before answering Onoda's scandalized exclamation.

“I. Am gonna be on that by the end of the night. Where's hotshot, I gotta tell 'im that I'm gonna get some tonight and he isn't!”

Onoda squeals and faceplants into his own knees, so Naruko decides to take pity on him and find someone else to tell how necessary it is for him to get with Izumida.

Imaizumi is a bust – he goes purple and scrunchy-faced at the mention of sex on a good day, and Naruko, in his search for a listening ear, somehow ends up next to Izumida themself. Everything goes quiet for Naruko, and in what seems like, to him, slow-motion, Izumida turns to him and flashes that thousand-watt smile and flutters his luxurious lashes and oh, no, there goes Naruko's filter, officially. He doesn't even have the excuse of being drunk.

“Can I touch 'em?”

Izumida puffs out his chest and preens. Oh yeah, thinks Naruko, he's definitely getting some tonight.

IMAIZUMI BEING CALLED SHUNSUKE-KUN. OH NOOOOOOO

(this was incredible... thank you)

No major content warnings.

The idea is that Hakogaku's bike racing team is putting on a school play, and Naruko somehow ended up filling in for the original person playing the princess ~~Toudou~~ for rehearsal. I hope you like it! I couldn't resist getting to draw Izumida's abs lol

No major fill tags!!!

This prompt is my everything for kenhina oh my god!! !!!

Edited (omg I'm sorry I'm having so many problems posting images :')) 2015-06-03 06:23 (UTC)

Oh no, I was biting my knuckles MY BABIES, realising how close it was with the cracked helmet, and them just kinda being shocked and "this sucks"... those moments were almost too real ;A; but Imaizumi screaming Naruko's name over and over and HE'LL SAVE HIM NEXT TIME!! ahhhhh, they're slowly coming to it, nice n i c e

THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL I'M SWOONING

I FORGOT TO ADD THE RATINGS!!!!!! its G.......

Thank you!!! Hehe, the queen and the princess of karasuno...!!!

This is so beautiful ♥♥ I love the colors, and Iwaizumi's lovely smile.

This is so lovely. I love the dynamic of the third years so much, and you captured it really well, that mixture of their close friendship with knowing the responsibility they have to their underclassmen. Also, Suga as a nurse sounds too cute :3

Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!! ;A; Oikawa loving the stars like Shinji does... I immediately thought of the stargazing scene, and made myself a little sad too ha ha.

This is perfect and I love it.

Izumida puffs out his chest and preens. Oh yeah, thinks Naruko, he's definitely getting some tonight.
