No One's POV
"Sorry about those two." Asahi said, giving a small wave to Shirabu.
"Its fine, not like I like breathing or anything." Shirabu replied.
"Oh my god! We have so much to show you! Yachi is gonna be so excited to see you!" Noya exclaimed giving him another tight hug. Noya and Tanaka kept going on about recent events. Eventually though, they had a group coming in soon so they had to go. Asahi went to go do some work. Now it was just Kiyoko and Shirabu.
"Wanna go visit Hitoka and Aone?" Kiyoko asked.
"Yes. I miss Aone's coffee, its just so good and Yachi's hugs are just so warm." Shirabu responded. The two started to walk towards Yachi and Aone's shops.
"I'm not gonna ask why you're here just- are you ok?" Kiyoko questioned, giving me a sympathetic look.
"Um-" The male was a little shocked at the question. He hadn't been asked that in a while. "I'll be fine."
"Well I'm glad to hear that. Anyways I've seen your social media account. Do I sense something going on between you and Semi?" She asked giving me a little nudge.
"What- pssh no, he's just a friend!" Shirabu exclaimed. Kiyoko gave him a look that was followed by a sarcastic 'sure'. They kept talking about their lives to each other as they arrived at Aone's coffee shop. They opened the door and a small bell rung.
"Welcome to- SHIRBAU?!" Atsumu asked with a surprised face.
"DIPSHIT, THE STORE ISN'T NAMED- SHIRABU?!" Osamu yelled as he came out of a room in the back to see Atsumu run up to Shirabu. The blonde gave him a hug that almost had him fall for the second time today.
"Hey Atsumu, if you'd let me breath properly, it'd be great appreciated." Shirabu spoke with a strained voice from the lack of air.
"Get off him, Sumu!" Osamu scolded. He continued to pry his brother off of the copper-haired male because he didn't want to let go of his friend just yet.
"Samu, yer a shithead, you know what?!" Atsumu said back at his bother. The two started to bicker as Shirabu laughed at the two.
"Some things never change." Shirabu had a smile as he remembered all the good times he spent here.
"Oh hey, Shirabu!" Koganegawa said as he finished making two cups of coffee for some of the customers there, he then went up to give him a hug but not as tight as Atsumu did.
"Do you want some coffee?" Aone asked once he saw Shirabu.
"Who wouldn't?" Shirabu asked in a playful tone. They all sat down at a table in the coffee shop. Aone or Kogane occasionally left to attend to a customer. As they all took part in a conversation, Atsumu brought up Semi.
"Shira, we've seen yer account and the posts of Semi, so tell us whats goin' on with you two?" Astumu had given Shirabu a nudge just like Kiyoko did earlier.
"Nothing! We're just friends-" Shirabu tried to explain.
"Bullshit." Osamu interrupted as he drank some water.
"For once I agree." Atsumu replied.
"Just friends don't look at each other like that." Kogane laughed as Shirabu's face turned red.
"I feel attacked." Shirabu spoke as he covered his face the best he could. "I'm going to Yachi's, maybe then I won't be hate-crimed."
"Bye!" They all said in unison as they laughed at the fact that they exposed Shirabu. Kiyoko also said her goodbyes as she joined the other on the way to the book shop. She thought surprising her girlfriend would be a good idea.
Lucky for them the shop was just next door. When they entered the shop, Yachi had her back towards them as she sorted some books.
"Hitoka, we brought coffee." Kiyoko said as the blonde turned around. When her eyes made their way to Shirabu she jumped up with a small shriek and ran to give him a hug. Her hugs were ever too tight or too lose. For such an awkward person, she was great at giving hugs.
"Shirabu! Your hair it's so soft!" She spoke as she admired the other's hair "Terushima! Sakusa! Shirabu's here!" Terushima poked his head from behind a bookshelf and smiled.
"There's my favorite Saltshaker!" He exclaimed as he walked over to Shirabu to ruffle his hair. Sakusa was carrying a few books when he walked over to the group. After setting them down, he waved at Shirabu, took a coffee and left to put the books away.
"How you been?! Its been forever since you visited us!" Hitoshi exclaimed.
"I've been busy but fairly good." Shirabu replied.
"I bet you missed us." Terushima smirked as he tried to get the other to admit it.
"No."
"Admit it."
"No."
"Admit it!"
"Fine! I missed you guys a tiny bit." Shirabu mumbled.
"AHAHA I KNEW IT!" Terushima did a little happy dance as they all laughed.

Back At Goshiki's House
———
When Kenjiro had arrived home, Tsutomu was already making dinner. He was leaned over a pot trying to taste some sauce that was on a spoon. He heard the door open and closed and looked to see his temporary roommate.
"Hey! I saw you visited everyone, they posted so many pictures." Tsutomu said laughing when he remembered all the pictures he saw of them.
"Ya, thought I'd drop by and say hi." Kenjiro replied. "What are you cooking?"
"Pasta!" He responded enthusiastically. Kenjiro laughed as he remembered the time he almost set his kitchen on fire trying to make pasta with Semi. "What's so funny?"
"Nothing, just this one time me and Semi tried to make pasta for a video. Neither of us knew how to cook so the pasta caught fire. Then we couldn't figure out how to set it out and almost set fire to my kitchen." Kenjiro spoke with a smile. Tsutomu didn't forget how the mention of Semi made the other smile like that.
"Sounds like someone has good memories with a certain ash-blonde." Tsutomu gave Kenjiro a small smirk as he fixed him a plate of pasta.
"We're just friends!" Kenjiro exclaimed for the 3rd time that day. The two continued to tell stories to one another. Laughing at each other's stories for the remaining hours of the day.
