(Hello guys Ik it's been a long time 😅 so here u go I hope u guys liked it )

A cluster of volleyball players scuttled out of the gymnasium as crepuscular permeated its vivid hues across the gargantuan campus of Shiratorizawa Academy, each member tautly clutching their respective bags which were hefty with needed supplies. Ambling down pathways until reaching the crossroads, where each student would go their disparate routes home, they blathered.

Some of them lived in the provided dormitories whereas a few others rested in their abodes, and usually, Tendou would split apart from the crowd and head to his dorm, but when he discerned you padding across the street, late from your own activities, he decided to skitter after you. "Heeey, [First Name]-chan!" Tendou chirped ebulliently, waving his hand in the air to attain your attentiveness.

Upon hearing your upperclassman's voice, you pivoted on your heel whilst ceasing in your hasty stride. "Oh, Tendou-senpai," you greeted him cordially, a diminutive blush adorning your cheeks at suddenly being called out by him. "Are you done with practice for the day?"

Nodding his head vigorously, Tendou simpered as he espied your feet shuffling together sheepishly. "Yep. Coach Washijou let us off a little early today, since tomorrow is someone's birthday~" he veraciously admitted, his mouth heaving no filter to the articulations springing from his vocals. "Do you know who's birthday it is?"

Ruminating for a cursory moment, you shook your head, contrite patently etching itself on your countenance. "I'm sorry," you began softly, tucking a lock of hair behind your ear as you fumbled for words. "I'm not really sure?" And you apologized once more, before you descried Tendou's shoulders quavering, sniggers converging at the edges of his lips. "W-Was it a trick?!"

When you inquired that, Tendou couldn't help but allow the vociferous chortles to spill from his thin lips. "Nope. It wasn't!" He just liked teasing you, watching you shrivel up in a quandary. But he promptly halted in all his laughter, the noises reverberating off the hollow streets, before pensively confessing, "It's my birthday, silly."

Glaciated in your spot as every nerve in your body felt a frigid chill nip at them, you incredulously stared at Tendou's mien that exuded no particular emotion asides from anticipation. Seeing no traces of deceit, you felt your heart rapidly pound against your chest to the point where you felt as though it would burst from your chest and plummet to the ground - at least maybe than you could proffer him something.

Upon your silence, your breathing becoming labored slightly as consternation spiked against your emotions, Tendou lunged forward and pulled you into a tight embrace, his lanky arms enveloping you whole. With the warmth emanating from your body suffusing through him, he could only hum in satisfaction. "I'm not mad! In fact, it's more fun this way!" he crowed, that idiosyncratic exuberance bouncing off his tone. "It'll be like, a double surprise birthday."

A jaundiced chuckle popped from your mouth. "How does that work...?" you questioned him, cogitating about what he meant; it's true you'd be more than willing to celebrate it with him, but it wasn't your birthday - it was his - so what was he thinking?

Kissing the top of your head, noticing you stiffen in his hold before shaking from being flustered, Tendou seized your body tighter and began gyrating on his heel, spinning you around in his hug. A sequence of shrill squeaks escaped their confines from you, not quite expecting to be suddenly spun around, but you only clasped onto him desperately.

"I was going to ask you to be my present anyway," Tendou explicated as he nestled you back down on the ground, noticing your reaction of solace embed on your prepossessing features. "So, it's sort of like, with you being my girlfriend, we'll just be a couple and get gifts and stuff together!"

Discombobulated, you sputtered incoherently, your embarrassment evident. "Tendou-senpai, uhm," you murmured, burying your face into his chest and letting him rub placating circles on your back - except you could tell the exhilaration was causing his own body to quiver, but he was trying so hard to console you. "I-I'd be happy to be your present!"

Ephemerally retracting away from you, only to dip his slender fingers under your chin, Tendou grinned rapturously. "Say it again, more clearly," he ordered, yet didn't give you a chance to make a rejoinder as a multitude of feathery kisses were pressed all over your cheeks and forehead. "Actually, save it for tomorrow! I know early bird takes the worm, but I want everyone else to hear you say it, too."

Only able to nod your head, you hoped he could tangibly feel the blithe emitting from your entity. With a small smile tracing your lips, you whispered quietly, "I like you, Tendou-senpai. Will you... walk me home?"

"Of course! Let's even stop for some ice cream!" And it'd be his treat.
