when kuroo wakes up, oikawa's already trying to climb out of the mess of blankets. they ended up sleeping on the couch, kuroo desperately trying to cuddle oikawa through the five-layer thick blanket burrito.

"tooruuu, stay down, i'll get us breakfast," he groans, sitting up.

"no no no, i'm gonna try," oikawa insists, pushing kuroo back down. "unless you want to help along you stay here."

"i'll help," he agrees, standing up, dizzy from being sleepy still. "what's the plan?"

"omelettes. it's the one thing i can make."

"i'm impressed," kuroo grins. oikawa rolls his eyes as he grabs a pan.

"if i faint, feel free to give me cpr. without the part where you break my ribs, just the breathing."

"is that an excuse to make out?"

"definitely," he replies as he grabs the eggs. "speaking about kissing..."

"wanna know where we stand?"

"if we can mutually agree, yeah, that'd be great," he says, turning to kuroo. the taller smiles down at him.

"i'll be your boyfriend, if you let me."

"you think i'd say no?"

"i hoped not," he chuckles, placing his hands on oikawa's hips. "does our lifelong friendship mean skinship is totally okay?"

"most definitely."

kuroo kisses oikawa softly after he sits down next to him, tired because of the long day. "i am officially deceased."

"what happened?" oikawa asks, eyes on his laptop screen as he runs his fingers through the ravenet's hair absentmindedly.

"i had a surprise math test and a physics experiment along with pe. i am not okay."

"poor baby," oikawa pouts, pausing his show and looking down at him. "you should just hide here all week."

"i should," kuroo agrees. he places his hand on oikawa's thigh and pulls it over his own, sitting him on his lap so he can look up at him. "what a superb idea, darling."

"you dork," oikawa snorts, placing a kiss on his lips.

"boys, i ha— oh!" oikawa's mother walks in, tray of cookies jumping as she does too, witnessing her son in the current predicament.

"m-mom..."

"you and kuroo are dating?" she asks, setting the tray down.

"uh, yeah," he says quietly, averting his eyes. "we are."

"for... how long?"

"since new year's."

"i swear, we haven't done anything inappropriate," kuroo says quickly as he lets oikawa go.

"i... i should go."

oikawa sighs as his mother leaves.

"tooru."

"yeah?" he replies, looking up at his mother who's standing in his doorway with a cup of tea.

"we should talk..." she sighs, sitting down on his bed. oikawa sits up, looking at her.

"about tetsu?"

"yes," she said. "i wasn't aware that you liked... guys."

"neither was i," he replied quietly. "it just happened. tetsu's been by my side for as long as i can remember, and he made me realize that i want to keep him there."

"i should've known," she sighs. "it's just a strange concept. i never expected it."

"i didn't either, honestly," he chuckles. "mom, i'm not gonna break up with him, even if you ask me to."

she takes a deep breath. "i won't ask you to. i thought about it and it's your life."

"really?"

"really."

"thanks, mom," he smiles and hugs her, "i love you."
