"word" = dialogues that are spoken out loud

'word' = thoughts

* = time skip

POV is in third person unless said other wise.

Tsukishima and Yamaguchi's favorite spot is still the bench behind the school in the flowery courtyard. There has been a new addition however.

They had gotten a new friend. Kozume Kenma.

As all three of the boys don't really understand social cues and hardly made friends. It took a few months for them to open up to each other, but when they finally did. Utter chaos.

They might seem like a shy, quiet, reserved friend group who you can depend on with their intelligence and responsible nature but you might want to think twice.

They all are very intelligent people don't get me wrong but when they're together, it's like the intelligence cancels out.

It's Saturday and the teenagers were hanging out at Kenma's house. When they decided to hang out after school for the first time, Yamaguchi and Tsukishima may have agreed to hangout at Kenma's place a little too eager.

That's when Kenma knew their home situation might not be so well but Kenma decided not to push it. He preferred hanging out at home anyways. After all, he is an introvert and his origami supplies are all at home.

Kenma is currently teaching Tsukishima and Yamaguchi origami while they sit on his bedroom floor.

Y: "tsukki!!! you did it wrong. you fold here then here. no, not like that. you know what, gimme it."

T: "wait what? but kenma said to do it like this."

K: "no, i didn't."

T: "what?? well it's not my fault there's too many god damn steps."

Y: "wait, what did i say the steps were again? is it like this?"

K: "what?? no, you guys are both wrong it's like this."

As Kenma demonstrate to the duo how it's really done, Tsukishima takes off his glasses and pinches the space between his eyes, sighing in frustration. 

Yamaguchi huffs, completely giving up on remembering as his memory sucks and decided to eat the remaining chips next to him.

After finally making a mediocre butterfly, they decided to share the mangas they have been interested lately.

(did you know mangas existed in the 12th and 13th centuries? me neither, but let's pretend these manga existed back then lol)

K: "what do you mean you don't read mha??"

T: "i'm sorry??? i'm more of an anti-hero type of guy?? justice is a load of bullshit."

K: "damn, who hurt you?"

T: "my parents."

Y: "wait you guys have a favorite genre?"

T: "you're still on that topic?"

K: "you don't??"

Y: "nu uh? i read whatever i like?? they can be gory, romantic, action, whatever??"

T: "he's a different breed, i swear."

All three of them were very happy and hadn't have such a laughing fit in a while. They never want this moment to end.

So Yamaguchi and Tsukishima called home to ask if they can stay the night at Kenma's.

Yamaguchi's parents didn't care less. If you listen closely you can hear a bit of relief in their voices. As if it was suffocating having him around.

Tsukishima's parents agreed, on the condition that he's staying home all day, Sunday to study.

"tsk, as if i don't study enough." he retorted afterwards. Obviously he agreed without a hint of hesitation. Anything to get out of that damn house.

"hey, kenma? are your parents ok with us staying the night?" Yamaguchi asked a bit worried.

"yea, they probably will get home tomorrow night. if anything you'd be their favorite and tsukishima would be the least favorite." Kenma said as he puts away his origami supplies.

Tsukishima glared at the blonde boy but before he could retort, Yamaguchi said,"don't worry tsukki! you're our favorite."

It seemed the greenette's (a whole new word reserved for yamaguchi only :] ) smile was so bright that the taller boy flinched a little, squinting his eyes.

"who said that???" Kenma looked up at the boy in confusion. 

Yamaguchi nudged Kenma and whispered,"hey, let him dream alright?"

Tsukishima then played along with their little act,"yamaguchi i- you wound me."

The three boys were all laying down reminiscing the fun they had throughout the day. They all knew it was the best day in the entire life. 

Kenma was curled up in a fetus position (yeetus the fetus) on his bed while Tsukishima was facing the ceiling and Yamaguchi looking at the moon outside the blonde boy's window. The taller boys both on their futons, too excited to fall asleep.

"hey tsukki?" Tsukishima only hummed in response, too tired to actually say anything.

"do you think we'd stay together?" Yamaguchi said while fidgeting with his fingers.

"i sure hope we do." Kenma's nonchalant voice alarmed the taller boys.

"bitch- you're still awake?" Tsukishima said while sitting up on his futon. He raised an eyebrow at Kenma who didn't move ever since he laid in bed.

"bold of you to assume i sleep this early. get up we're playing monopoly." Kenma then got up and started searching in his pile of board games.

"ughh, it's 2 am." Tsukishima then sighed and flopped back down on his futon.

"so? get your ass up or you're fake." All Yamaguchi could do was snicker, truly hoping they'd be a part of his future.

♡

heyyyyy it's been quite a while am i right? :D 

i had writer's block and i ended up writing this chapter in chunks, i hope it didn't sound awkward. but anyways, you cannot tell me that if kenma, tsukishima and yamaguchi trashed talked us you wouldn't cry. 🤨

but if kenma and yamaguchi trashed talk about us, we probably did something wrong lol 🏃🏻‍♀️💨
