I'd Spike That~ {Haikyuu!! x Male!Reader}

Sawamura Daichi

"Your team wants to meet....me??"

Decked out in a frilly gingham apron as you sliced lemons and hummed some popular song you'd heard on the radio, you were the picture of domestic housewife...disregarding the fact that you were 100% male that is. The call from your boyfriend doing nothing to interrupt the graceful way you flittered around the kitchen, you simply continued cooking with your phone cradled between your shoulder and ear, though your previously peaceful countenance was replaced with an expression of befuddlement.

"I don't mind but," you begin layering honey and lemon slices in a glass container, brows furrowed as your confusion doesn't waver, "Why would they want to meet me? I only know the basics about volleyball, its not as if I play or anything. The only thing volleyball and I have in common is you, Dai-chan.." Securing a lid on the container you slide it into the fridge and then lean back against the counter as you listen to Daichi blather on about nosy teammates and how apparently knowing their captain was dating someone wasn't satisfying enough, they wanted to meet his significant other-that being you of course.

"So, do you mind? You don't have to stay for the entire practice, you could just come in at the end, introduce yourself before we clean up and leave?"

Its kind of a weird request, no lie, why would the love life of their captain be so interesting that they wanted to schedule some sort of meet-up? What if they just wanted to give you the shovel talk, be all macho teammate and intimidate the crap out of you? You pale, hand reaching up to grip your phone nervously, oh god what if they hated you??

"(F/n)..? If its too much trouble, you don't have to." You hear him exhale and can picture just him running a hand through his short dark hair right now, "But I would like to introduce you to them." Oh thanks, no pressure Daichi. With him sounding so cute and hesitant like that , how are you supposed to refuse now? You grimace but wipe away any negativity as you close your eyes in defeat. Damn, you were just too weak.

"Don't be silly Dai-chan, I'd love to meet them. What better way to get some juicy gossip about my darling after all~?" You laugh off any lingering nerves, falling back to the familiar routine of teasing him.

"....Somehow I feel like my pride is going to regret this."

"Mm, well your gut feelings have always been pretty accurate, so you're probably right~"

He sighs but it's fond and when he speaks he isn't nearly as put-upon as he's pretending to be "Of course. Well I'm the one who asked, so it's my own fault if I leave practice embarrassed beyond relief I guess. Hey, but really, thanks (F/n), I know its probably a little overwhelming and you're nervous, but you have nothing to worry about. I'll be right there with you and everything."

"Pfft," You scoff even though he managed to hit the bull's-eye with one shot, "it'll be fine Dai-chan! I think the only one worried here is you. It's just like I'm meeting your second family or something, and I managed to win over your parents with no problems. This'll be a piece of cake!" You two exchange your typical slew of 'I love you's' before hanging up and then your setting the phone down, the soft grin he always managed to worm out of you still on your face.

And then you're hit with the realization of what your words bring, the smile dimming into something more panicked and (e/c) eyes become vacant as you feel a bead of sweat drip down. "Oh my god, it's totally another meet-the-family..." You were fucking doomed.

You glance morosely at the fridge before rolling up your sleeves, guess it was time to make those snacks more team-portioned. Perhaps you could bribe them into liking you..?
