From a long boring day of school to overworking himself in practice, Daichi dragged his feet on his way home. Suga had always teased him for looking so tired. Who could blame him? Daichi was swamped with homework, his younger siblings to take care of, and most importantly the pressure of winning nationals. He never had any time to himself to finally relax and take a breather. 

"I'm home," Daichi sighed. His younger siblings ran over to their drowsy brother and greeted him with hugs and kisses. "I'm too tired to play right now. Let me rest and maybe we can play."

"But nii-san, you promised to play yesterday!" His younger brother whined. 

"Pleaseeee! Mama said you'd play with us when you got home!" His youngest sister tugged on his shirt.

"I know, I know," Daichi yawned. He walks over to the couch without detaching his siblings who were clinging to his body. He takes off his bag and seats himself, making the kids disperse. "I just...wanna..." Within seconds of him laying back on the couch, he falls asleep before finishing his sentence.

His younger siblings huffed as their big brother took up the entire couch to fall asleep. They all groaned that Daichi couldn't play with them today so they all retreat to their respective rooms, leaving him to sleep soundly. 

You stared at your phone, waiting for your boyfriend to call you that he made it home. To your dismay, there was no response to your texts despite practice being over. You looked around the room to notice a photo of you and Daichi on your anniversary. 

Thinking back to your fun times always made your day feel better. But it seemed like today it wasn't helping much. Daichi had never missed a day without calling you that he made it back safely. You let out a sigh before dialing your shared best friend. 

"Yellooo!" Sugawara smiled.

"Hey, do you know if Daichi made it home safe? He didn't call me today," You bit the inside of your cheek. 

"Oh, yeah, he should have. He was very tired today because Coach was putting a lot of pressure on him," He responds.

"Okay...I'll call him just in case. He didn't respond to my texts so I called you," You explained as you drew circles with your finger on the table. You say your goodbyes to Suga before pressing your boyfriend's contact. 

After three rings, no answer. You pouted at the sound of his voicemail. You attempt one more time and after two rings, you hear someone answer the phone.

"Babe?" You sat up anticipating your boyfriend's voice.

"It's nee-san!" You heard one of Daichi's younger siblings answer. "Hi Y/n!" They all say collectively.

"Oh! Hey guys! Err- Where's Daichi?" You asked. 

"Nii-san is sleeping," His sister answered. You hear your text tone as they sent you a blurry photo of their brother. "He said we'd play together but he fell asleep."

"Aww," You giggled. 

"Nee-san can you come over to play with us?" His younger brother asked. 

"I'll come over but no waking your brother, he needs his sleep," You scold.

"Okie!" The kids smile with joy hearing you'd come over.
