haikyuu | kenma x reader

18

the school day had finished and i've never been so happy to go home, fukunaga and i made our way back to his place so we could do a bit of 'study'.

"so have you decided whether or not to tell kai?" he asked, his arms swaying in a synchronous rhythm with his legs. "i guess i have to...i cant lie to him," i sighed, my head plopping down, i felt the tears well up in my eyes. shōhei used a hand to lift my head up and wipe my eyes. "you'll be okay, if you want, you can invite him to my place and say it to him there." i smiled at his offer and gave a small nod, using my sleeves to wipe my eyes.

i linked arms with shōhei and we skipped our way back to his place. opening his front door, i was met with his younger sister and mom. "good afternoon mrs fukunaga, hi rei!" i greeted as i walked. (a/n: IDK IF SHŌHEI OR FUKUNAGA IS THEIR LAST NAME CUT ME SOME SLACK). both females gave me a smile as i took my shoes off, shōhei led me to his room and we sat on his bed. "okay y/n, im gonna call kai," he said.

about 10 minutes went by before kai showed up, there was now, fukunaga, kai and me sitting in the room, an awkward silence rose upon us. i needed to build up the courage to tell kai...

"kai..." i started, fukunaga held my hand, giving me a sense of reassurance. kai turned his body to me, "i need to tell you something and i really really hope you don't hate me for the rest of your life...its just..." i paused, tears blurring my vision. "what is it n/n?" my boyfriend asked, i flinched at the nickname...this was going to be a lot harder than expected. i looked at shōhei, he gave a sympathetic look, "kai...i think we need to break up," i said softly. kai's eyes widened, "wh- why? what did i do wrong?"

"its not you kai...i just have realised i have feelings for someone else and as much as i try to cover them or forget about them, they always seem to come back into my life..." i explained, i wasnt even sad anymore, i was angry, angry at myself for not being honest with anyone.

kai's pov

"kai...i think we need to break up." those words...they broke me, every living cell in my body just died, i felt as though my heart was being tugged at, nothing couldve prepared me for that. she has to be joking...right? surely its all just a joke. i couldnt wrap my head around what was happening, just as soon as i realised that i actually did want to be with her and not just a 'fake boyfriend' to make kenma jealous...she says this now?

"wh- why? what did i do wrong?" i asked, my voice breaking as i held back tears. i couldnt even think straight and every word y/n said after went straight in one ear and out the other. all i made from her explanation was she liked someone else....

i honeslty couldnt take it any longer and i left shōhei's place, driving over to kuroo's to inform him about the break up.

"so y/n...my sister broke up with you?" kuroo asked in clarification. "yep, at fukunaga's too," i said. "damn she's got some balls on her," kuroo laughed. "bro shut up," i said, nudging him, right now wasnt a good time to be joking around. kuroo stopped laughing and tried giving me advice, "well i know her and she wont think twice about this so she really must like this new guy to have broken up with you, i'd say move on, slowly but surely move on from her."

i nodded, my leg bouncing. "but i honestly just wanna know who she likes you know?" i muttered. kuroo smirked, "i think i have an idea of who she likes..." he fully caught my attention and told me everything he knew about y/n and kenma.

flashback (3rd person) - for context y/n and kenma are about 6 or 7, kuroo is 8 therefore y/n doesnt really remember much of this neither does kenma

"y/n, kenma likes you," the younger kuroo laughed, pulling kenma into y/n's view, the girl blushed, her crush liked her back? "n-no kuroo is lying!" the shorter boy said softly, his face also growing into a blush. y/n stood there, awkwardly before kuroo pushed kenma into her and their lips briefly made contact. "hey hey heyyyyy y/n's first kiss!" kuoo snickered.

"you guys would be cute together i cant lie," yamamoto chuckled, causing the girl's blush to redden, "hold her hand!" kuroo shouted, grabbing kenma's hand and placing it into y/n's. kuroo grabbed his camera out and started taking photos (a/n: omg suna who?!) which added to the embarrassment kenma and y/n felt.

end of flashback - first person pov

i sat with fukunaga as he comforted me, "you did it y/n, im so proud of you," he said with a smile. "you just have to be honest with kenma now..."
