As I walked into the library the next day at lunch I saw Kenma at a table leaning over his work. His hair falling in his face and I smiled as he brushed it absent mindedly behind his ear. I walked over and he looked up, those piercing eyes meeting mine as I sat down in the chair opposite him.

"Sorry I'm late" I said softly "got a little bit roasted by my Chemistry teacher on my homework"

"Its fine" he replied "I've only been here 5 minutes"

"What are you studying?" I asked, crossing my legs on the chair. For our exam we had to take any piece of poetry abd write an essay. Kill me.

"I'm not sure" he shrugged, flicking through another couple pages of the book of poetry we were all given "none of it really makes sense but I quite like this one"
I leaned over to read "You Are My Sunshine" on the page.

"I've not read that one, is it good?"

"I like it" a small blush rose to his cheeks. God, he was cute. We sat in quiet silence for most of lunch, every now and then breaking into short conversation and asking questions but it was nice, kinda peaceful. Something about being with him made me calm and I got a lot of work done for once. I blushed as I felt his knee press into mine under the table, I looked at him through my eyelashes to see he'd gone red too. The bell made both of us jump, I stood up to start pushing my books into my bag. Waiting for Kenma as we had English next anyway.

"I'm still screwed" I sighed as we walked out the library, I dont even like my poem that much.

"You'll be fine, we have a few more days anyway" he said meakly but it made me smile anyway "I can give you more help..."

"Would you?" My face lit up and he smiled slightly

"Yeah, I'm pretty much ready so its fine" he scratched the back of his neck.

"Thanks, Kozume-kun" I grinned and his cheeks went scarlet and the mention of his name. So fucking cute. The two of us walking into English together and finding our seats.

I yawned widely as I stepped out of volleyball that night, my legs aching as we'd done way too many recieving drills. I saw Kenma and Kuroo standing outside the boys gym, Kuroo turned and saw me, a smirk finding its way to his face and I groaned inwardly.

"Hitoki-chan!" He called, Kenma turned at this and I smiled as I walked over to them.

"Hey" I said quietly

"You going home?" Kuroo asked, I nodded "wanna walk to the station with us?"

"Sure" I mumbled, following the two of them as they left the gates of Nekoma.

"So which school did you say you transferred from?" Kuroo asked to make conversation.

"Karasuno" I replied

"Ah, we've jad a fair share of matches against their boys team" Kuroo nodded

"I know" I said. God I was so shit at conversation...

"How was your Chemistry test?" Kenma asked

"Don't get me started" I chuckled "chemistry is the bane of my existance"

"Kuroo is actually pretty good at it" Kenma mentioned

"Really?" I raised my eyebrowd at the taller male. I'd not pegged him as a scholar.

"Don't be so surprised" he chuckled and I found myself laughing "are you struggling?"

"A little" I sighed

"Well, Kenma and I study after volleyball on Thursdays - you're welcome to come and I can give you a hand" he spoke with sincerity

"I wouldn't be a bother?" I asked

"Course not" he laughed with a smile

"It would really help" I nodded "thanks, Kuroo-san"

"No worries" he smiled, suddenly smug again "any friend of Kenma's is a friend of mine"

"Right.." I said awkwardly

"Plus we usually end up playing video games and word is you're a gamer" he said

"Word?" I cocked and eyebrow - had people been gossiping about me?

"Well, Kenma said you helped him with the game he's glued to" at this the pudding hair boy flushed pink and I smiled.

"I guess I am" I shrugged

"Have you ever played Soul Caliber?" Kenma piped up suddenly

"Yeah!" I grinned "gotta love the casual sexism but its fun"

Kenma let of a small laugh and Kuroo looked shocked as we talked "who do you tend to play as?"

"Tira, always and forever" I put my hand over my heart dramatically "those blade rings are so cool!"

(For those who don't know what this is it like a Mortal Kombat style fighting gane with more fantasy styled characters)

"What do you play?" I asked, shoving my hands into my pockets

"Nightmare" he said, I scoffed involuntarily "what?"

"Ridiculously over powered" I teased with a grin

Kenma shrugged "I like my blades bigger than my whole body"

I cracked up laughing at this and I saw Kenma smile at my reaction "what about bedhead-chan over there?"

"Yoda" Kenma rolled his eyes

I giggled "should of known"

"If that bad?" Kuroo seemed bemused by the two of us now.

"No it's just very you" Kenma shrugged and I nodded in agreement as we reached the train station.

"I'll see you guys tomorrow" I smiled as I stopped on my platform

"It was nice walking with you" Kuroo said with a wave, moving for the platform and leavine me, conveniently, alone with Kenma.

"Do you wanna study again tomorrow?" He asked, looking at the floor.

"Yeah, I'm still so lost with English" I sighed, my blue hair blowing off my face as my train hurtled intothe station "see you tomorrow, Kozume-kun!" I waved with a smile, a blush covering his cheeks as he waved back as I jumped on to the train with the rest of the crowd.
