- he knows how to make me smile

Kuroo walked beside you in the halls at Nekoma and there were some girls giggling about something which had caught the taller males attention as he turned their way, listening to snippets of their high-pitched conversations, "He was so gorgeous!"

"So tall as well! I think I'm in love!"

Kuroo turned back to face the front when you both walked with no destination in mind as he glanced down at you to see no expression on your face, he didn't question it but he also had something else that he was itching to ask after hearing those girls.

"Hey [Name]-chan."

You looked up at him silently, giving him your attention immediately as he continued, "Do you have someone you like?"

Your best friend had that teasing tone in his voice, a tiny smirk pulling at his lips as you smiled in reply. Not a smile that confirmed his question but you were really smiling at the way he asked, like a middle schooler, "Well,"

His ears perked up, thinking you'd originally dismiss the question or wave him off, "I like you, so.."

His eyes widened for a moment and when your eyes caught his, yours also did after not expecting that sort of face to cross his face but he still chuckled and looked away after, smiling to himself as he answered back, "Yeah I like you as well but that wasn't I meant. You know what I mean, [Name]-chan."

A wistful sigh escaped your mouth and then you found both Kuroo and yourself at the staircase leading to the next floor up. You proceeded to move onto the stairs as Kuroo followed, figuring that you'd both just sit on the rooftop for the rest of lunch. There was nothing but breathing and the sound of two pairs of school shoes; one red and one blue, surrounding you when you left the other students talking and yelling behind on the second floor.

Kuroo couldn't help glancing at you from time to time as you looked only forward, he didn't even know if you had forgotten his question or not until he was opening the door for you. You murmured a 'thanks' and stepped into the sunlight, closing your eyes as the rays touched your face when he stared, watching your lips when they moved.

"There's a boy."

His head tilted a little, it went unnoticed by you.

"He always knows how to make me smile."

He couldn't help smirking when your eyes slip open an inch, focusing on Kuroo as he seemed a shade of blue from the way the rays of sunlight rested on your eyelids only seconds before, "So you do like someone, how cute."

Nodding, you didn't stop looking into Kuroo's hazel eyes while he grinned almost mischievously, when you didn't even crack a smile, "If holding immense romantic feelings; that are also not reciprocated may I point out, towards another person who has no idea is cute then I must be god damned adorable."

He watched the way you pointed two finger guns towards him, his grin dropping while his hand lifted to scratch the back of his messy hair in what looked like a nervous way, "No [name]-chan, I didn't me-"

As if a revelation, your eyes sparkled, "I'm so pleasantly cute that I cause teeth-rotting cavities, you hear me!"
