Kuroo Tetsurou's Instagram

• Attention (ft. Yachi)

//Kuroo is 20, and Yachi is 18 mkay-

"Head pats?"

Kuroo had randomly sat down in front of Yachi, immediately crossing his arms across her legs. He tilted his head a bit with a small smile as he looked up at the blonde.

"Please?"

Yachi stared at the other for a moment, blinking once, twice; followed by a curious head tilt. "Why?" She did it anyway, though.

"You know I like head pats." Kuroo responded, closing his eyes when she stopped patting, and lightly began running her fingers through his hair instead. He let out a soft sound of content, and she felt his weight fall on her legs a bit more, meaning he was relaxed fully.

Whiiiich leads her to believe that he was stressed about something, and he had been tensed up.

"Are you okay?" Yachi asked after a moment, moving both hands down to his shoulders, lightly massaging them briefly. One hand went back to his hair, and her other gently coaxed him to lift his head to look at her.

Kuroo did look up, and he opened his eyes to look up at the blonde, who currently looked concerned and curious.

The man hesitated briefly, before nodding a bit, smiling again. "Yeah."

"Tetsu, c'mon. We've been together for almost a year now, and have known each other for almost three. I can tell when you're using your fake smile." Yachi said, her tone only a tiny bit scolding. She followed that with a small poke to his forehead. "Tell me what's up."

Kuroo sighed, leaning away from his girlfriend and just sitting there; legs crossed, hands now clasped together in his lap, and looking up at his girlfriend.

"Fine.. My sister keeps asking when she'll have nieces and nephews."

Yachi rose a curious brow. "What'd you say?"

"I told her that she'll get that after I marry you. But you and I- we're too young to be married. You just graduated high school, I'm in college- we-"

"Do you think we can't do it?" Yachi interrupted gently. "Do you think our relationship is that fragile?"

"No, no-" Kuroo immediately said, shaking his head and resting his hands on Yachi's knees. "That's not what I meant, I swear- I just.. I'm just.."

"Scared?"

Kuroo looked down at his lap, thinking. Was he scared? Maybe.

"... Honestly, a little bit. What if you decide that it's too hard, or that you can't be with someone like me?" He looked up to Yachi again, this time frowning softly.

And Yachi Hitoka said something to Kuroo that she had never said before.

"Tetsu, for a smart guy, you're pretty darn stupid."

Kuroo's brows immediately shot up in surprise- it wasn't that that was particularly mean, but it was surprising coming from Yachi.

"Excuse me..?"

Yachi then smiled wryly, grabbing his face gently with both hands and leaning down to place a gentle kiss on his lips.

"I couldn't do better than you, Tetsu. You're my person. I can't wait to marry you.. I don't think we're too young for that. We are definitely too young for kids right now, but.. marriage? I think we can handle it."

"Really?" Kuroo asked after a moment, a little bit stunned.

"Really."

"... Really really?"

"Yes, Tetsu. Really really."

Kuroo stayed silent for a moment, before suddenly and skillfully pulling Yachi down off the couch and into his lap. He chuckled at her squeal, and immediately peppered her face with kisses.

"Guess I should propose soon, then, hm?"

Yachi giggled, looking as cute and delighted as ever. "Guess you should.. but do it when you're ready. Not in like a couple days.. think about it, okay? Like really think about it. Marriage is serious."

"I know." Kuroo said softly, still smiling fondly. He placed a long, loving kiss to his girlfriend's lips, before pulling back enough to rest his forehead against hers.

".. I love you, Hitoka."

"I love you too, Tetsu."
