Haikyuu X Reader

|Kageyama Tobio|

Omg hi. 

out of curiosity, I went to find my old ff that I wrote when I was 15... and why did it have 75k views??? help?? and why the random Japanese?

Reading all the comments were the best part - had me cackling cause everyone was unhinged and I loved it.

At that young age, I had no clue what love and sex were but now that i doo... i thought it would be fun to write smth again.

Your POV

We have exams in 2 weeks so everyone was frantically writing down notes and highlighting anything that suggested importance. Everyone but a certain raven head. Hunched over his desk, Kageyama was dozing off while the rest of the class reviewed their notes and buried their faces in their flashcards. He must be confident in passing the tests if he's sleeping right now. 

I looked down at my messy notes and scattered pens and sighed. What I would give to have perfect memory. If I could remember everything, I wouldn't need to revise and if I didn't need to revise, I'd be able to hang out with my friends more and sleep early instead of studying. At this thought, I admired the boy in front of me who seemed to lack the need to revise for the exam.

I had never really spoken to him before. To be fair, no one seemed to want to speak to him. He just had this intense aura surrounding him so I could never bring myself to say hi. He wasn't in any of our class group chats and he never came to any hangouts we arranged. This guy was a mystery. All I knew was that he was part of our school's volleyball team. I didn't even know we had one until the dean made us attend that one match against Shiratorizawa. Did I understand what was happening? No. I didn't notice we won until everyone around me started cheering. 

However I did notice Kageyama. His focused stare, his slender fingers, his thighs... 

In a game involving a ball, you're eyes would typically follow the ball. Mine, however, were hypnotized by him. Every movement of his was in slow motion: his careful steps, his graceful sets, the way his hair would dance with him- bell rings 

I snap out of the vivid memory and stuff my things into my bag, eyeing the cause of my distraction. So much for studying. 

The classroom began to clear out with everyone rushing to go home leaving me alone with the still sleeping Kageyama. Do I just leave him here or do I wake him up? If I leave now, I'll probably never have a chance of speaking to him again. Oh fuck it. It's not like I'm going to do anything inappropriate to someone sleeping. Nervously, I walked up to his desk and tapped his shoulder and waited for him to wake up. He did not wake up and continued to sleep like a log using his arms as a pillow supporting his head. His brows were furrowed as his mouth trembled slightly as if he were talking in his dream. Cute? I tapped his shoulder again with more force this time. His eyes slowly opened and he looked up in confusion. The left side of his hair was sticking up and his furrowed brow deepened as he squinted at me. 

"School just ended and I don't think you're allowed to spend the night here so I thought I should wake you up." I smiled at the drowsy boy. 

"Wha? What time is it" Kageyama's voice was a little raspy and deep enough to send chills down my back. He yawned and looked at the clock. Suddenly, he bolted up and grabbed his bag. I heard him mutter something about being late and another thing about Sugawara killing him? 

He stood and suddenly was towering over me with broad shoulders and a dangerously sharp jawline. His faint smell of wood and rain began to engulf my senses to the point where I could barely think of anything else. He bent down, low enough for our eyes to meet but our faces were far too close for comfort. I stopped breathing when I was confronted with a deep midnight blue; his eyes piercing mine. Blood rushed to my cheeks and ears, my whole body began to burn with anticipation.

 Are we about to kiss now? Already? Wait I'm not prepared! We barely know each other and yes he is one of the most attractive boys in our year but that doesn't mean I can just kiss him. . . is what I would say if I wasn't already infatuated by the man in front of me. 

"Thank you for waking me up. I would've been late if not for you." He said sincerely. I then watched him run out of the classroom and then proceeded to bash my head into the wall- ok no I didn't but I did bury my face in my hands replaying the events that had just transpired. Embarrassment consumed my entire being and I kicked myself for having such thoughts and expectations because of course he wouldn't make out with a girl he barely knew. 

I slung my bag over my shoulder and made my way home where I barely slept and barely studied. The memory constantly seeped into my mind whenever I found myself concentrating or whenever I closed my eyes. After attacking my blanket multiple times, I decided I would not look him in the eyes again. Determined, I fell asleep.

The next day during lunch

I was looking over my notes and my flashcards when I hear a light thud on my desk. I look to the right and I see a carton of my favorite strawberry milk. I look up confused and I'm met with those same deep ocean eyes. 

What?

Kageyama pulled his chair to my desk and sat down facing me sipping on his own carton of milk.

"Thanks again for yesterday. The volleyball club had a practice match with Date Tech High and if I was late, Sugawara-san would've lectured me about it and Hinata would never let it go." He nodded as thanks.

I blinked and faltered as I was entranced by him yet again. His head slightly tilted to one side wondering why I wasn't saying anything. I cleared my throat.

"No problem. Not a problem at all. It's what I do." Girl what? 

"Not like it's my job. I don't wake people up all the time cause no one else really falls asleep during class." I'm rambling and I don't know if what I said just made sense.

He studied my face in a soft silence and I began to feel conscious of his gaze. I shuffled in my seat and tucked a loose strand behind my ear and reached for the drink he placed on my desk.

"Thanks this is my favorite! How did you know I would like this? haha" I awkwardly chuckled and pierced the carton with the straw and took a sip.

He grinned slightly. "You always get that one. It's the only drink I've seen you get at the vending machine." 

My heart leaped out my chest and my stomach fluttered. So many emotions flooded my system - shocked that he knew of me, confused why he's been watching me, but also happy that he's paid attention to me and I was nervous cause what do I say now?

Saving me from my thoughts, the bell rang. Kageyama gave me one last look before turning around to face the front. I caught my reflection on the window to my left and realized how red my cheeks were. I cupped my face trying to cool myself down when he turned around again.

"Hey do want to come watch our practice match tomorrow?" He asked with wide eyes waiting on my response.

I nodded and gave him a smile. He grinned and turned back as our teacher walked in.

Do I know anything about volleyball? Absolutely not. But I would love to watch him play again. I could feel my heart beating with excitement.

I just pulled 1300 words out in 3 hours when my essay of 1500 took me 2 weeks to write. It does feel short tho so i might do a pt 2 but knowing my history, it's unlikely.

Getting back into writing is really fun so you might be seeing me again.
