You are a Pirate || Haikyuu

Chapter One

Shouyou wasn't gay.

He wasn't. Not in the slightest. Yet he had to marry the son of the rich Lord, Ushijima. Why? Bankruptcy.

All because of King Shuichi Hinata's greed for power. Well, it was more deep seated than that. You see, originally Hinata Natsu, the first princess was supposed to marry Ushijima, but she had long passed. That meant the next in line to marry for money, was Shouyou.

That brought us to why Shouyou was currently arguing with his father. He did not want to marry someone he had never met. "I don't care if the kingdoms failing, I want to marry for love!"

"You are a Prince! You will marry Ushijima and that's final!" Shuichi frowns at his only son. Hinata glares at his father for that remark. "Think of the people!"

"Think of the people this, think of the people that, I just want a father who actually cares about me!" Shouyou shouted, his vision blurring slightly. Why couldn't his father understand that he didn't want to marry at all, much less a guy?

"The people matter more than the feelings of a selfish prince like you who can't handle responsibility! Our kingdom needs money, and this is the only way we can get enough to pay our debts."

The young prince's heart broke in that moment, and he couldn't take it. He felt enraged, and hurt stinging in his chest.

"Maybe we wouldn't have these debts if you were a better king! Or a better father. You're the reason Natsu was murdered!" He turned on his heel and started to run. He needs to get away from this. From the stupid responsibilities. From him.

When Shouyou stepped foot outside the gates, he immediately bumped into a hooded figure. Both of them fell onto the ground. It revealed a tall, dark haired figure with a permanent scowl etched into his face.

"Oi, dumbass, watch where you're going!"

"Who are you calling a dumbass?!" Shouyou retaliated, and turned his attention to the guy's face. He's scary! The scowl on his face was terrifying. Both of them got up quickly, and the man looked like he was trying to kill him. Shouyou started to run away from the man.

The guy shouted after them and chased him. Suddenly, Shouyou spotted some cargo boxes. Fuck. He was screwed. Wait, one was open! Quickly, he jumped in there to hide. Placing the top over his head, he sighed in relief.

In Shouyou's rush, he didn't notice that the cargo was being loaded onto a ship. A pirate ship, at that. Catching his breath, he realizes that he hasn't slept in a few days.

Yawning slightly, he falls asleep.

<•••>

"Alright, that's the last of the supplies. Some of those crates were really heavy. Geez, what the fuck do you have in there?"

Loud complaining woke Shouyou up, and he accidentally bumped his head on the side of the crate. "Ouch," he muttered. He then clamped a hand over his mouth.

Someone slapped the box and laughed boisterously. "Don't worry about it."

"That makes me worry even more, Koutarou."

Shouyou felt his box suddenly slide from side to side. "Be fucking careful with the cargo, we need those!" He heard a distant shout.

"Koutarou, what are in those crates?" He heard the first voice but more firm, the curiousity cutting into the speaker's voice. It was definitely male judging by the timber of the voice. "Remember last time?"

Okay, one of them is named Koutarou...

"Hold on, isn't one of those shitty crates moving?! Woah!"
