Missing Piece II - Promise ♡︎

Not long after, they arrived at Shirabu's house and Shirabu got his keys out.
"Good night Kenji. See you tomorrow"
"Good night Eita. See you-"
"Hey wait, you wanna sleep over tomorrow? Just come with me to my house after practice."
"Eh, we'll see about that."
"Shut up, you're coming over."
"Sure, sure. See you tomorrow." Shirabu let out a small giggle.
They waved at each other and Shirabu went inside his house.

***
Shirabu got ready for morning practice. As he went out, he was surprised to see Semi outside waiting for him in front of his house.
"Eita-san, what are you doing here?"
Semi ignored him and took Shirabu's hand, then Shirabu turned his palm around so he could hold Semi's hand too.

"Let's walk to school together."
Shirabu nodded.
"Your hands are so smooth," Semi added and slightly smirked.
"I know, unlike yours."
"It's not my fault my hands aren't as smooth as yours."
"Well, I have to admit your hands aren't soft at all but your lips are," Shirabu uttered, curious to know his boyfriend's reaction.

"What the heck?! Who made you like this?"
"Like what?"
"Aren't you supposed to be salty?"
"Oh so you want me to be? I can-"
"No, shut up."

They were holding hands, walking with silence. Until Semi had to ruin it.
"The mark's still there," he teased.
"Dumbass. I hate you."
"I love you too."

-At the volleyball gym-
They were the only few people that came early to practice, other than Tendou, the red-haired psychopath, and Ushijima, the captain who is one of the top 3 aces in Japan and a candidate for the All-Japan Youth Team (Under 19).

"SEMISEMIII HEYY"
"Hey, Satori. Why are you here so early?"
"I came with Wakatoshi-kun. He's always early. How 'bout you, Eita? How come YOU are so early?"
"Uhh.. I wanted to come to Shirabu's so I woke up extra early but found out he was up early too."
"Oh I see~ YOU guys are dating noww, is it~?"
"Shut up."
"And what did you say to him to make him want to date a dumbass like you??" "Tendou, I said shut up."
Shirabu giggled, listening to their conversation.

"No. ANYWAYS.. WHERE'S SHIRABU-KUN?" Tendou asked with an excited tone.
"Hi Tendou-san, Ushijima-san." Shirabu finally popped out.
"Shirabu-ku- HEY I SEE SOMETHING ON YOUR NECKKK~"

Shirabu stared at Semi. He gave his senpai the "what-do-i-do" look. Semi stared back. He gave his kouhai the "tell-him-the-truth" look. Shirabu rolled his eyes. Semi gave him a smirk.

"They're definitely weird, very weird," Tendou said.
"Sorry, Semi and Shirabu-kun, but he's right," Ushijima answered.

"Oh yea.. Eita-san did that to me."
Tendou giggled. "Oh so you guys are THAT couple noww~ Bold, aren't you? Using his first name?"
"He made me do that. Ask him."
"Shut up, Satori," added Semi.
Tendou chuckled once again. "Whatever you say Eitaa~"

"Eita-san, let's go change."
They both went into the locker room.
"I get shivers every time I go to this room," said Shirabu.
"Because of what happened yesterday?"
"Why else would it be?"
"So, wanna do that again?" teased Semi.
"What the heck is wrong with you, Eita?"

"Heyy, take a joke, Saltyrabu-"
"No, not that nickname please."

Semi chuckled, took his shirt off and changed into his jersey.
"You have a good body, Eita," said Shirabu giggling.
"I know, I catch you staring when I change sometimes."
Shirabu slightly jumped in shock and blushed. "I-Is it weird?"
"Nope, I get stared at all the time."
"Eita!!"
"It's alright, I'm just joking," Semi said, wrapping his arms around Shirabu's waist as he whispered an "i love you" into his ear.

The younger setter pulled the other closer to him. Semi blushed. They were about to kiss when...

"Hey guyss!! Wanna practiceee now?" Tendou asked as he banged the locker room door open.
Semi and Shirabu froze.
"Ohohoho sorryy~ Am I disturbing something?" Tendou said again as he closed the door.

"Your fault, Eita, your fault."
"You didn't push me away!"
"You expect me to? Sure, if you want me to."
"Shut up."
"You shut up-"
"No."

"You're so annoying."
"Now now, let's go practice, we don't want your salt showing up again."
"At least my setting skills are still better than yours."
"Excuse me? No."
"Oh really? Guess who stole YOUR sport as a starting setter."

"They're definitely biased."
"No they're not."
"They are."
"Are not."
"Okay now shut up!"

-imagine the coach telling the whole team about the 3rd years graduating so they won't play anymore official matches-

It's a pity that the third years had to leave because they were amazing volleyball players: setters, spikers, blockers, receivers, and servers.

"As the setter, I'm entrusting this team to you," Ushijima said and Shirabu nodded in response.

"Shirabu-kun, you're a really good setter, you know. WELL NOT AS GOOD AS SEMISEMI OF COURSE, AND HIS SERVES ARE AMAZING!!" Tendou exclaimed, hugging and pulling Semi sideways.
"T-thanks Satori.."

"Sadly, I have to agree with that yet I really don't want to," Shirabu said.
"Hmm.. Should I teach you?"
"No, your serves suck." Shirabu giggled.
"Didn't you just- nevermind, salt."
"What did you just say?"
"Nothing. You know you should improve your tossing too," Semi teased his boyfriend.
"You know my tosses are amazing. That's why I grabbed your spot off you."
"You won over my spot, but that doesn't make you better than me."
"It does!!"

"You should practice tossing to Goshiki."
"Him? Never doing that. Never tossing to him."
"Too bad he'll be playing with you. He wants to be the ace, you know."
"He's nowhere there yet."
"That's where your salt shows again, I was wondering where it went. You're such a salty guy, Kenjirō."
"But you love this salty guy."
Semi laughed. "Dang it, you got me there."

"It's sad that you're graduating. I want you to stay and play with us."
"What? You're admitting I'm an amazing player and you need me on the team?" Semi teased.
"Well I-I... I-"

"I'm only graduating high school and leaving this team, not leaving you."
"I hope so."
"You hope so? That's a bit rude, isn't it? Salt-"
"How many times have you said salt again?"
"A lot."

"Oh shut up Eita... You'll stay with me right?"
"You make it sound like I'm dying." Semi laughed. "I'm not dying, don't worry."
Shirabu just rolled his eyes in response causing Semi to chuckle.

"Of course I will. I promise I won't ever leave you." Semi smiled.
"Same for me, I guess.."
"You guess?!"
"I'm sure. Promise?" Shirabu said as he put up his pinky finger.
"Promise," Semi replied as he intertwined them.
