Dare to Fly (Haikyuu x Reader Oneshot)

Kuroo Tetsurou x Child! Reader x Tsukishima Kei (Child Trouble)

[A/N] This is requested by TheUnicornOtaku.

[College! AU] Where Kuroo and Tsukishima are college students and are forced to babysit an orphan (Reader)  for a few days. (C/n) is cousin's name.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There were lots of mistakes Kuroo should have learnt from. By right, he should have learnt how to say 'no' to pretty ladies instead of trying to be a suave gentleman. Not that it was a bad thing but Tsukishima was absolutely furious when the sheepish cat led a scowling four-year-old into their shared apartment.

A freaking child, for goodness sake! Tsukishima pointed to the floor with a firm, "Sit there," which Kuroo obediently did so without a peep. The (h/c)-haired child squirmed uncomfortably in his lap. Tsukishima sat across the both of them, hands crossed at his chest.

With a sigh, Kuroo blurted out how that a female classmate of Kenma, (C/n), had a little cousin whose parents had passed away recently from a car crash and the only relative she knew was her college-aged cousin who happened to live alone. However, the older girl had to go away on a compulsory excursion for five nights and no one was willing or available to take care of a socially awkward and probably difficult child. Fortunately enough, Kuroo foolishly accepted the near-impossible challenge. Did I say near-impossible? Let me scratch that off....

*Ahem* Fortunately enough, Kuroo foolishly accepted the impossible challenge of taking care of a little monster in the form of an innocent-looking, possibly-traumatized child with a cold bastard of a apartment-mate called Tsukishima, or fondly known as Tsuki, without the help of two people capable of dealing with kids called Yamaguchi Tadashi and Kozume Kenma since one of them was away to attend to a sick relative and the other was on the same excursion with (C/n). 

"And instructions are given inside (F/n)-chan's bag," Kuroo grinned nervously as he rummaged through the (f/c) travel kit. He pulled out the only book he saw, which happened to be a manual on how to deal with a child that went by the name (L/n) (F/n) and boy, the manual was half the thickness of an English Oxford Dictionary. Now, Tsukishima and him was stuck with a problematic child that had a bloody thick-ass manual. How awesome was that? Kuroo flipped to the first page to see what was written on the agenda.

Dinner... Allergic to garlic, olives, tomatoes plus 25 more things (F/n)'s allergic to. If anything's missed out, please refer to the 'Allergies' section on page 275-276. 

Oh boy...

First night was clearly super difficult for Kuroo and Tsukishima. Before bath or bed, (F/n) must at least watch an hour half of TV. Unfortunately, the only DVDs they had was on past volleyball matches, dino movies (courtesy of the dino nerd, Tsukishima) which were unsuitable for kids her age (with the blood, gore and all) and Kuroo's collection of 18+ rated movies. Yamaguchi didn't seem the kind buy DVDs to watch movies and Kenma only had video games as his source of entertainment.

However, (F/n) was insistent on watching Frozen. In short, she screamed the apartment down. Lucky enough, an annoyed neighbor happened to have said DVD and lent it to them so the child could shut up.

Bath time was chaos. Kuroo and Tsukishima felt awkward to bath (F/n). They spent the whole hour arguing loudly on who should bath her like an old married couple. (F/n) furrowed her eyebrows and decided to take a bath by herself. As she stepped into the bathroom, she was given a nasty surprise by the slippery floor and immediately slipped. The impact hurt her terribly for a four-year-old and she started wailing, stopping the 'old married couple' in their bickering. Kuroo and Tsukishima tried to calm her down and get her into bath but she refused to cooperate as their punishment.
