Kageyama's 5 ways to say I love you

I lost

The buzzer rang across the gym loud and clear.

Karasuno had lost to none other than Aoba Joshai.

You gripped your face tightly to stop the on coming tears from flowing down your face as you looked at the grounded and crushed team. They tried so hard. They almost made it. The sets were won 2-1.

The boys shuffled over silently, monotone and not daring to speak a word, and stood before their coach. Even Keishin was depressed.

"It's okay guys. You almost had it. You did so well...."

They nodded and packed up their stuff.

The winners stay on the court the longest. Sadly they weren't the victors this go around.

Kageyama didn't even look at you when he left practically running out the door. You followed after him, but giving him some room. You didn't want to make it worse but you knew he needed you so the minute he walked out into the parking lot, you tugged on his sleeve and pulled him to the side of the building.

"Tobio are you okay?" You hugged him tightly, his body pressed up against the cool rough bricks of the wall.

"Does it look like I'm okay? Stupid Oikawa beat me.....I should have won....No we should have won....That's why he'll always be better than-"

You cut him off with your hand connecting against his chest.

"Don't EVER say that Tobio Kageyama. You are the best. He may have win the battle, but he didn't win the war. You will have another shot! And you know what? YOU'RE GONNA KICK HIS POPULAR ASS AND CLAIM THE NAME OF THE BEST GODDAMNED SETTER IN THE HIGH SCHOOL DIVISON! NEVER EVER DOUBT YOURSELF BECAUSE I LOVE YOU AND YOU WILL ALWAYS BE THE BEST IN MY EYES! You tried. You just barely lost. This will push you even farther! Okay?"

Kageyama looked down at you tears flooding his eyes as he nodded.

"R-Right (y/n)....I...I will beat him next time....I'll make the team proud..." Tobio dropped his head down on your shoulder and cried. "But I lost.....The whole team...The third years...All beaten..."

You hugged him tightly against your chest as you comforted him tears flowing freely down your own face as well.

You knew this was a hard moment for the Tsundere. So all you could do was comfort him. All night long.
