It was the middle of the night, but Kuroo found himself unable to fall asleep. He was either too hot or too cold, and no position seemed comfortable enough for him to sleep.

He decided to see how you were faring, and peeked at you from on top of his bed.

He felt his soul leave his body as he saw you, staring right at him in the darkness.

"I-uh... how long were you awake?"

A sigh was heard coming from you as you stretched your arms upwards, almost like you were reaching for the ceiling.

"I think I was asleep for a while, then I heard you tossing and turning,"

He retracted his head back to his bed, laying it on his pillow.

"Oh. Sorry,"

"It's alright, I'd do the same thing. So do you know what's keeping you from sleeping?"

"Everything,"

...

"Oh,"

"Yeah..."

A few minutes of awkward silence passed before you decided to try to help somehow.

You got out of the comfort of your futon, and walked out of the room, only to re-enter a few minutes later, holding a glass in your hand.

You sat on his bed beside him, holding the glass up to his face.

"What is this?"

You helped him drink it up, a warm sweet liquid flowing down his throat to his stomach, the heat of it spreading to the corners of his body.

"It's warm milk mixed with a little bit of honey,"

You set the glass down as he finished his drink.

"Heh, milk mustache,"

You wiped it off his upper lip, and when faced with a realization that you now had a milky finger, you made the tough decision to dry it on your clothes.

He was thankful that the darkness prevented you from seeing his blush.

"Try to sleep now, and if that doesn't work, let me know, I'll stay awake with you,"

He turned on his side, watching you slink down underneath your blankets.

"Really? You'd do that?"

"Yeah, I mean, nothings worse than being the only one awake, right?"

He couldn't argue with that, and he was fortunately able to drift off to sleep, the warm honey-milk being the driver to the chariot that brought him to the land of dreams.

"Morning Kuroo! I guess my trick really worked, huh?"

He covered his mouth as he yawned, the first thing he saw being your cheerful expression.

"Mhm. And you can call me Tetsuro, otherwise it might get confusing here,"

"That uniform looks nice on you, Tetsuro,"

He did a quick turn around for you,
"You think so?"

With a nod of your head, you circled around him, analyzing each part of the uniform on his body.

"Yup! The uniforms at your school are so much cuter than the ones at mine,"

You leaned against his torso, a blush appearing on his face from the unexpected contact.
