A Rose By Any Other Name

A Rose By Any Other Name || Prologue ||

-3rd Person POV-

Yamaguchi walked down the hallways as he heard whispers.

"If you ever talk to him, don't be harsh, he's like a Rose. Both beauty and personality wise"

He always heard the same thing over and over. He was getting so fed up with it but left it alone.

He walked out of the building and off of the campus, heading straight to his home, without explanation to why he wasn't going to practice.

The team waited for Yamaguchi and looked over at Tsukishima who just shrugged.

"So I'm guessing Yamaguchi decided to miss out today?" Suga said as he rubbed his temples. The all shrugged, afraid to say something wrong and get him angry. Sugawara rolled his brown eyes and let Daichi take over.

"Alright everyone! Let's start with a 3v3 match" Daichi said.

"Kageyama, Tsukishima and.... Asahi, go on the other side of the net" Daichi said. He was originally going to put Yamaguchi on that team but he wasn't there.

"Hinata, Nishinoya and Suga, go on the opposite." Daichi said, the said people went to take their place.

"I'll be observing to see who's going to be in the starting line-up with our next game against nekoma" Daichi said. They all nodded and began to play.

-With Yamaguchi-

He quietly walked into the apartment and relaxed as he saw his father. "Hey dad" Yamaguchi said as he hung up his bag and took off his shoes. The male looked back and saw his son. His father was about 6ft tall, a skinny figure and was wearing a black suit. He was 34 but looked like he was 28.

"Hey Tadashi, how was school?" He asked. Yamaguchi shrugged. "Are you gonna head off to work? You'll be late" his father said as he pointed to the clock on the wall. Yamaguchi noticed and quickly ran up to his room and grabbed a random pair of clothes and put them on. He wore a yellow sweater with jeans, he quickly grabbed a duffel bag and went back down, grabbed his phone and slipped on his shoes.

"Your mother would kill you if she found out what you worked as! And do not let anyone touch you without permission!" He yelled out as he stood at the door way. Yamaguchi chuckled and nodded and quickly ran off to his job.

He stopped at a small cafe, infront of the back door, But it wasn't any normal cafe.

It was a cross-dressing cafe. He walked in and checked in for his shift.

He went back to the dressing rooms and opened his duffel bag.

It contained a long olive colored wig with bangs up front, with a pastel green skirt and a white long sleeve that was large on his frame, along with thigh-highs and light green flats and a small bow in his hair. He sighed and put on the outfit.

"I have to make some money somehow.." he said bitterly to himself as he looked at himself in the mirror. He lightly scratched at his freckles and decided to cover it up with some foundation.

He finished and put his old clothes in the bag and hung it up. He stepped out and went to the cash register.

-Kenma's POV-

I saw this cafe on the side of the road. I came to Miyagi to visit Shouyou, Kuroo decided to butt in and come along.

"Kenma, let's go in the cafe" Kuroo said as he dragged me over to the cafe. I rolled my eyes and reluctantly stepped inside.

I was pushed by Kuroo slightly to get in line to order. I frowned but stayed in line.

After the line shortened, it was my turn. I stepped up and immediately recognized the cashier.

"Hello! What can I get-"

"Tadashi?"

"Kenma?!..."
