Summertime- KENMA X READER

4: Birthday

I thought kenma would be more of the shy type but he took the lead right after we became friends. We have been coming over almost everyday. Kenma has been playing many video games with Kuroo I guess he can see how socially awkward Tetsurō really is when he doesn't want to be somewhere or isn't comfortable enough still. He has made efforts to get along with him in every way.

It didn't take long for kenma to realize that kuroo was more of an outdoors type of boy. Kuroo then took the chance and introduced kenma to volleyball. Kuroo had tried to force me to play but I wasn't that invested in it to play all the time with him.

After some months Kuroo and kenma became inseparable. They were almost like long lost brothers. I on the other hand had to stay home and study all day long. I already knew everything for my grade so I secretly would go to the library with the help of my grandpa and would get college textbooks on anything that sparked my interest.

It's going to be my birthday in a few weeks and I'm really nervous. I kinda don't wanna go back home now. I feel as if every year I stay here I'll soon get back. I've had the biggest crush on kenma since I was young back in my dimension. I had wished to be able to become friends with him and I finally gave the chance.

I'm to busy as of now to become close to him but I know sooner or later we will hopefully get along.

"Y/n wanna go out and get some chips?" Kuroo offered. "Are you going to buy them for me?" I asked with puppy eyes. "No." He stated. "Pleassseee." I begged with puppy eyes. "Ugh fine let's go." He said as he ran out the house with me behind him. "Is kenma coming with us?" I asked curiously. "Do you want him to come?" Kuroo asked with an eyebrow raised. "Oh nothing I Uh just wanted to invite him over for my birthday, don't you think I should? I asked kuroo to make myself less suspicious. "I'll tell him then but I won't force him if he doesn't want to." Said kuroo as he walked into the convince store. "Then can you maybe imply that I want him to go?" I asked but more like demanded. "What's imply?" He asked as took a popsicle from the ice cooler. "I-just invite him that's all and can you pass me the choco one."I said as he passed it to me and we went to the register. "Thank you." I said as we payed and left back home.

Some weeks later it was finally my birthday. Curiously enough it was the same day of my actually birth in my real dimension. I woke early in the morning and put on a green hoodie with cat ears on the top with some black pants and white shoes.

"How 'a my little doll?" Asked my dad as i walked into the kitchen. He grabbed me tight and engulfed me in a big hug as he carried me up into his arms and jumped around with me. He was wearing his work attire so I knew he was leaving again. "I'm good I missed you dad" I said as I kissed his cheek. He smiled and kissed my forehead. "But you saw me yesterday." He said as he brought me down to the ground once again. "I know but I don't get to see you for much." I said with a pout. "I know sweetheart, but I have much work. I'm running late now. Happy birthday sweetie. Behave well with your grandma and gramps, okay?" He said. "Okay i will bye dad." I waved my hand as he got into his car and left.

I felt a little disappointed. Even though he wasn't my real dad I felt really lonely in this dimension and having someone as a father figure felt nice. I sat on the couch alone. Grandma was out with her friends while grandpa went to buy me a cake. And Kuroo, well he was most likely with Kenma.

I watched some cartoons laying backward with my head on the couch seat and my legs on the cushions. Five episodes in and I heard the bell ring. 4:46 it was to early for dad to be at the door and grandma always took long while gramps well he got distracted easily buying other things.

I opened the door and there he stood with a big black box with a blood red ribbon on top of it. He gave me a small wave and I told him to come in. Kuroo wasn't with him, strange...
"What brings you here?" I asked. It was obvious but I had to make sure even if I sounded stupid. "I brought you a present since it's your birthday." He said. He reached the box out to me as I put my hands around it and he said, "happy birthday y/n."
