Haikyuu!! Reader-Insert One Shots

Misconstrued (Kageyama Tobio x Reader)

Kageyama waited for Hinata to leave before approaching Daichi. As beneficial as it was to practice with the energetic redhead, his patience could only be pushed so much for one day. Even if only for an hour longer, he wanted to take a shot at practicing alone.

"Wait," mumbled Kageyama just as Daichi was about to lock the gym doors.

Everyone else had already called it a night after an intense four-hour practice, yet he was still ready to keep on practicing if it meant improving and honing his skills as a setter.

"Is something wrong?" Daichi asked, slightly surprised that Kageyama wasn't walking home with the others like he usually did.

"I, uh, wanted to know if maybe I could practice for a couple more hours myself."

Perhaps it was rather late in the afternoon, but Daichi was never one to discourage his teammates when they were motivated to keep on practicing. Plus, he was slowly becoming more accustomed to working as a whole with a team; the least Daichi could do was accept his request.

"Alright," he agreed, handing him over the keys. "Just be sure to lock up once you're done."

Kageyama's eyes grew wide, slightly surprised that he even agreed. "Right."

Daichi bid his teammate a goodbye and started heading off before remembering something important.

"By the way," he said quickly before Kageyama entered the gym, "there's supposed to be a bad thunderstorm heading this way. Make sure you don't stay too long."

Kageyama nodded in acknowledgment and entered the gym, not realizing just how much time would slip by him.

Practice flew by quickly for him. What seemed like ten minutes was actually over an hour and before he knew it, he had been there for over two hours. It wasn't until then that the inevitable wave of exhaustion finally hit him and he collapsed onto the cool gym floor panting heavily.

There he laid after chugging his water for quite a few minutes in an attempt to cool down before a bolt lightning visible through the windows snapped him out of his daze. Kageyama got himself too caught up in volleyball to remember what Daichi had said about the storm and now it was finally upon him.

Grabbing his bag, he bolted out of the gymnasium, making sure to lock the doors behind him. Outside, rain was coming down in small trickles but was sure to grow worse in just mere minutes. There was no way he could make it back home before the storm hit even if he ran the whole way.

A bolt of lightning struck down, so bright that it lit up the sky, closely followed by a deafening roar of thunder. Despite how loud it was, he could've sworn he heard something else aside from the thunder. It sounded like a... scream.

Scanning his surroundings, his eyes didn't stop until they fell upon you, hands covering your ears as you cowered in front of the entrance to the school. Now was his chance to run home before the storm got too bad, but he couldn't bring himself to just ignore you when you looked so terrified. Cursing himself, he jogged over to where you stood.

"Are you okay?" he asked, hoping more than anything that it was nothing serious; that he could leave without a guilty conscious.

"I-I just don't like thunder," you mumbled, squeezing your eyes shut.

"Do you live nearby?"

You shook your head and he sighed. "Come on, we can run to the convenience store and-"

But it was too late. The storm had finally hit. Rain poured down onto the ground and lightning flashed in the sky. Another roar of thunder was heard and you jumped, getting so close to Kageyama that you were nearly hugging him. He reached over to the door behind you and tried pulling it open, but it was sealed shut.
