CH.4 Bus Rides

A win, they had won against a top ranked school, mind you they didn't have their actual setter playing until almost the last set but still, they had won and Hinata had proved that Kageyama had changed, that Kageyama was no longer the totalitarian king of the court.

The feeling of elation and triumph permeated the air but there was of course and underlying tiredness that settled over the entire team, especially the orange haired omega who had been through so much today. What surprised the team the most though was the fact that he sought comfort from the dark setter rather than his fellow omegas. Currently the orange ball of sunshine was laying in Kagayema's lap his face nestled into his stomach, his arms wrapped around the alpha his palms slipped under the back of his shirt clutching onto the skin to skin contact it provided; a bit of drool had slipped from his mouth and onto the alphas shirt. Yet, Kageyama couldn't really find it in himself to complain revelling in the fact that the small omega had trusted him enough to seek him out after the trauma caused by other alphas and the exhaustion that came from being emotionally drained.

Tsukishima was so very tempted to say something about the fact that the omega had fallen right to sleep the moment they were on the bus, but when he opened his mouth to say something his eyes met with Suga's and he quickly shut his mouth not breathing a word for fear of that intimidating glare, he still wanted to keep the option of children one day. Tanaka and Noya, apparently didn't get the memo. "Oi, look at that, Kageyama, keep your hands off our innocent sunshine!" Tanaka stepped towards him threateningly letting an intimidating scent slip from his pores "Yeah, you can't taint him with your dark ways." Noya was wiggling his eyebrows implying something that flew right over the dark haired setter's head. The setter was instead much more focused on the way that Tanaka's scent caused Hinata to whine and push his nose further into the scent glands at Kageyama's hips. Kageyama was frankly at the end of his control, and Tanaka causing Hinata even more anxiety threw him over the edge. He let his instincts take over once again and soon a protective angry smell was released from his pores, slamming into Tanaka.

If Daichi was being honest, he would have to admit that he hadn't seen it coming, he hadn't seen Kageyama's scent being almost on par with his especially because Kageyama's scent hadn't finished fully developing it would only get stronger in the years to come. He really should have seen it coming though, he'd simply thought that Kageyama's scent didn't get any stronger than when he had fought Tsukishima, he certainly hadn't thought that the volleyball idiot would be able to control his scent well enough to comfort the tiny orange omega in his lap while also forcing Tanaka to his knees clawing at his own throat the scent never touching the rest of the team; then almost as soon as it was released it was reeled back in, Daichi really should have realized that someone with that kind of control on a ball would have just as much control over themselves.

Tanaka gasped in breath as the entirety of the Karasuno team stared at Kageyama either in surprise or confusion. Kageyama, on the other hand wasn't paying attention to any of them, instead he was running a hand through Hinata's hair and the other slowly down his neck and over his side, back and forth in a comforting manner releasing a relaxing safe scent. "It's alright Hinata, I got rid of the smell, it's alright now; just sleep." Tanaka had angrily climbed to his feet and was about to do something until Ennoshita came up behind him and placed a firm hand over his mouth. 

"No, Tanaka, Kageyama had every right to do that to you. You still don't have enough control to direct your scent, that little 'prank' with the threatening also hit Hinata, who was cornered by alphas today or did you forget about that?" Tanaka's shoulders slumped and Ennoshita removed his hand, "shit, I didn't think." he then slapped both of his own cheeks and looked back to Kageyama and Hinata. Hinata made a small whimpering sound and tried to push even closer to Kageyama's scent glands that he was already shoved against. The dark haired alpha's forehead was scrunched in worry and his eyes were still the bright blue of an alpha being ruled by instincts. Tsukishima seemed to be thinking the exact same thing as Tanaka as he spoke, "Is it smart to leave the King like that? I'm quite positive he's not entirely in control." Suga chuckled lightly shocking everyone and making them look towards the pretty omega. "He's only focused on protecting and comforting right now, mostly comforting because he doesn't really see us as threats, his instincts see us as pack; that thing with the scents a second ago was just a warning not really aggressive. I'd put money on them being true mates, that's why his instincts are in control and as true mates he'd never force mate his omega, because it would cause him pain and that is not something a true mate would intentionally due especially when their instincts are in control-"
