Kuroo Tetsurou & or / Kenma Kozume, Haikyuu!!

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.

MIYU this is really awesome! Your characterization of these two is spot-on (of course Kuroo would like watching American sitcoms) and actual cat Kenma is just too cute.
