Negativity Begone... (Depressed Suga x Daichi)

Chapter 3

Noya's POV:
"Ow!" I quickly said. "Oh! I'm sorry Nishinoya-senpai!" Yachi quickly said as she moved her hand away from the bruised eye of the libero. "It's alright.." I said as kiyoko handed me a ice pack. Normally I would jokingly hit on her or be weird like normal but not right now... I'm still confused as to what I did. "Kinoshita was suspended from club activities for the next week or so," Coach Ukai said. "I still have no idea what you did but it must have been something to make Kinoshita THAT mad!" Ennoshita said to me. (Kinoshita and Ennoshita are becoming confusing😂😂) I stayed silent not sure how to respond. Narita sits down on the bench next to me. "I'm sure you didn't do anything Noya-" he said as I immediately shot up. "If I didn't do anything than why did I get beaten up?!" I practically shouted. "Okay okay just calm down..." him and Ennoshita said at the same time. Before I could take a breath, what just happened hit me like a truck. 'I just lost one of my best friends...' without another word, I break down not caring about who's there. "H-hey Noya you don't need to cry.." Narita says as he sits down in front of me. "Yea Noya-San!" Hinata shouted but not loud enough to startle me. Than something happened that caused everyone to be surprised, even Asahi who had just walked back into the gym: the goddess herself, kiyoko gently patted my head "I'm sure it will be alright." She said in a sweet yet blank voice. "Kiyoko-senpai is right!" Yachi quickly said. I smiled and wiped my face dry. "T-thank you guys... but I think I'm just gonna go home now.." I said and stood up. "Bro are you sure?" Tanaka said and grabbed my arm. "Mhm! I'll call you if anything happens bro!" I say and walk out of the gym. I wasn't really going home, I was going to see suga, but I'm not sure that he would wanna see me of all people... oh well it's worth a shot! I eventually got to his house and daichi was there waiting at the door. "Hey Daichi!" I say as he turns his head and waves. "Hey Noya what are you doing here?" He said in a very surprised and questioning tone. "Same reason as you!" I look at him and extend my arm to give a thumbs up but immediately regret it. "Hey be careful!" Daichi said as I fake pouted and a very wasted woman opens the door. I can tell dachi is a little confused as well... she looked nothing like suga!
Daichi's POV:
Who. The. Hell. Is. This?! I've been here enough times to know that this isn't Suga's mom. Maybe they did go through with the divorce... that would explain why suga has been more down lately. The small libero goes from confidently standing next to me to hiding behind me like a child and their mom at the mall. "Oh Ummm hello ma'am! is-" I was cut off mid sentence by the green eyed woman in front of me. "Your the second *hic* person who came here looking for Th-*hic*at brat!" She said, her words severely slurred. Let's just say than neither me or Nishinoya took that descriptive word very well.. "hey! Don't talk about suga like that!!" Nishinoya yelled at the woman. "he's not a brat! Suga is one of the sweetest, selfless, and caring people I have ever met!" I simply replied as the woman gave both of us a very strange mix of a glare and something else that I just couldn't place before stepping to the side to let the two of us in. It's been so many years since I've been here. The last time I was at Suga's house it smelled like cookies and, coming from somewhere, some kind of flower: now it stinks if booze and cigarettes. Noya grabs the back of my shirt as the two of us make our way up the stairs. "Suga? Are you up here?" I called out into the empty, dark hallway. Noya pointed to a door. "I think he's crying.." he practically whispered and knocked on the door. "Suga? It's me Nishinoya, I'm probably the last person you would want to see right now but me and daichi are worried about you... can we come in?" He said a bit louder. Just as he finished up talking, you could hear a slight squeak as the door opened. The two of us walked into the room and closed the door behind us just to see the silver haired boy break down right in front of us. "Suga!? Hey what's wrong?" I quickly rushed over to him and hugged the silver haired boy tightly, but loose enough to not hurt him. Noya was seated next to me but very little attention was payed to him. "I-I'm sorry..." he mumbled. "For what?" I asked him, wiping away his tears. Noya looked very nervous but didn't say anything. "Y-you two should g-go... it's not safe here," he said. "Why would it be dangerous?" I asked the silver haired boy as his head went down. "You trusted me as your s-setter for years... t-trust me on this too" he said in a very faint voice. I gently picked up his chin and wiped his tears again. He looked so broken and dull, the exact opposite of the vice-captain that we all know. At that exact moment I just wanted to kiss him and tell him that everything will be alright, but I'm reality I'm not even sure if it's gonna be. There was a knock on the door making all of us quietly turn our heads. "Come in!" Suga shouted in a completely normal voice and a red haired woman came in but not the lady that 'greeted' us at the door. Here hair was put up in a neat French braid and there were freckles spread across her face. "Oh hello auntie!" Suga said before getting up and giving her a hug. "Well hello to you too sugar!" She said and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Oh I don't think you met these two, this is Daichi and he's Nishin-" suga started before getting cut off by the woman in front of him. "Nishinoya! I knew I recognized you kiddo!" She said. "Huh?!" Suga and Noya both said at the same time. "Yea me and your sister have been best friends since high school!" She said and started laughing. "Anyway sugar.." his aunt went from happy to dead serious in a split second. "I need you to stay at one of your friends houses for some time," she said and handed him a bag that's was in the corner of the room. "Huh why?" He said but started packing his Jersey, school clothes, and a few other things. "That's something I can't tell you but please listen to me, I know you don't like to take my word but you need to this time.. it's for your own safety!" She said and looked at daichi. "Daichi was it?" She said before walking towards him but still keeping a mindful distance. "Um yes why?" he said. "Please make sure that he stays safe. Koshi doesn't have to stay with you but please keep an eye on him when you can." She said as she grabbed both of my shoulders. "I promise." I say. "Thank you.. Sugar do you have everything that you need?" She said and quickly turned around to the silver haired boy who was now zippering a bag.
Why did I need to protect him?
