Kuroo x reader (HAIKYU FANFIC)

15

The day had finally came. Getting the school to agree on such a variety of students going on a trip during lesson time was a little challenging—especially with Kageyama & Hinata's English grades dropping further down with each passing day.

Being far too busy with her own stories, Y/N hadn't been tutoring the boys recently. Not that she could help it, if she wanted to get into a good university she had to maintain & advance her grades.

Starting their trip as early as 5am, since the train they were supposed to take was cancelled, the team huddled onto the carriage lazily, their small bags fondled over their shoulders. Unsurprisingly, their carriage had been almost completely empty.

This let the teammates sit by one another comfortably, with some like Tsukishima taking up 2 seats just because they could.

"Y/N, you brought your own skates right?" Hinata chirps happily.

'How is someone so energetic at such a time..?'

"Yeah, but I might use rentals for the start." The girl replies, leaning her head leisurely against the window, a cool breeze hitting her cheek.

"Why? We all wanna see you! Your gonna be so good and you can teach me and YOU CAN TEACH ME HOW TO DO—"

Hinata's rambling gets cut off swiftly by Kageyama's bag. The one he had decided to utilise in an attempt to shut the orange up with.

Y/N immediately lets out an involuntary laugh, hurrying to shove her hands over her mouth to prevent anymore noise escaping.
"K-Kageyama!—" she squeals, turning her face away to let her giggles out silently.

Soon enough a brawl had broken out between the two first years.

Gazing uninterestedly upon the scene, Kiyoko calmly taps her captain on the shoulder and points at the ground of the passage, where a tangled mess of limbs lay.

It was safe to say that no one made as much as a peep for the rest of the ride.

Chatter and laughter filled the train as Karasuno Volleyball team arrived at the station. According to Kenma, Nekoma was already stood and waiting for them at the exit.

After a good few moments of waiting for the rest of the team (Noya,Tanaka and Hinata..) to scramble their items together they could finally leave the carriage.

Daichi begun the trip with a speech that Y/N was mostly ignoring, messaging Kenma so she could find him easily.

"—therefore we are representing the school, I will not tolerate another incident like what happened with the principal." He stops to glare at Kageyama and Hinata who both awkwardly pretend to look around at their surroundings.

"This was Y/N and Kiyoko's idea, so you will be on your best behaviours to show respect to them, okay?"

Finally finishing, Daichi turns and begins walking to the left-the rest of the team apart from their managers following behind like ducklings.

"Uh Daichi-san," the h/c girl calls out. "It's this way," she points towards the complete opposite direction, a smug smirk hiding behind her features.

The captain turns around abruptly and makes a A-line for the exit. "I knew that,"

Y/N rolls her eyes playfully and lets him take the lead once again, this time in the right direction. On the inside, she was beginning to panic a little. 'Kuroo is going to be there. Oh fuck fuck fuck, he's right through those doors.. what if he thinks I look fat? I mean I did skip my workout this morning since I didn't have the time but that shouldn't have changed my appearance that much right?'

Her thoughts begin to spiral as if the most natural thing in the world, before she realises what she's thinking and internally cringes at herself. 'ew that sounds so pick me-choose me-love me.'

"Kiyoko-san, can you skate?"

The dark haired manager remains with her nonchalant facial expression but turns her gaze at her younger friend. "I haven't for a few years, so I doubt it..but I'll be fine with you there."

Unknowing of the turmoil she had just caused to erupt inside Y/N's head, she headed out of the door as if the words she had just muttered so casually were a natural thing to say.

'Kiyoko!!!' The girls heart pattered appreciatively in her chest, momentarily distracting her from the fact she was about to come face to face with the captain of Nekoma.

The gentle breeze blew her h/c locks swiftly as she followed closely behind the members of her team. She immediately spotted Kenma, who seemed to be by himself. Quickly jogging over to him, she shoved her hands in-front of his face to catch his attention. "Kenmaa, why are you by yourself?"

The cat-eyed male jumped at her intrusion, almost dropping his switch in the process. He kept a monotone expression on his face as he went to reply, immediately getting interrupted by Hinata who shouted over him— running over at a full speed. "Kenmaaaa!"

"Where's everyone else?" The ginger tilts his head innocently gazing around rapidly.

Muttering to himself, Kenma stands up and shoves his switch into his backpack. Y/N takes this time to eye his outfit, light-grey joggers and a black zip up jacket with small white stripes on the side. She was jealous. Sadly, her school had required the team to wear their uniforms until they arrived at the skating arena where they could change.

"With the rest of your team," he absentmindedly points to where both Hinata and Y/N had ran over from. True to his word, both teams stood with each-other conversing.

"Oh," the two reply in sync.

"Why are you all by yourself? And that's not everyone is it?"

Y/N couldn't help but feel her heart drop as she couldn't spot Kuroo anywhere. 'He said he was coming, right?'

Kenma blinks at the girl whilst muttering to himself, "You're a lot more talkative than last time."

This causes the girl to let out a laugh, covering her mouth with her hand instinctively as they cross the distance between them and their teammates.

"Thanks," she scoffs light-heartedly. "I'm in a good mood."

The male raises an eyebrow slightly. "You weren't in a good mood last time?" His nonchalant tone prevents the girl from taking anything he says seriously.

"No, well I was—"

Her words are cut short as she collides with something. A hard wall, from the feel of it.
"Ow, where'd that stupid wall come from—?"

A strong arm catches her with ease (i accidentally spelt that as eyes at first.) and her pupils dilate in surprise when she realises she had not collided with a wall. Nope, not at a wall at all. Just captain kuroo in all his glory.

"Careful, you okay?" His somehow soft-yet-rough voice asks.
