Kenma:
The walk back to Kenma's place was rather quiet. He looked over at Hinata, who was lost in his own mind, not even noticing where he was walking. Hinata tripped over a hole and lucky enough, Kenma caught him from falling face first onto the ground.
"Hey are you alright? You seem out of it. Did he do anything to you?" Kenma asked, trying to restrain himself from sounding angry, although he kind of was.
"Oh, uh, I'm fine. No, he didn't do anything to me aside from clean the vomit off me." Hinata answered, his face turning red from embarrassment. "Tch, you promise he didn't hurt you in any way?" Kenma further asked, unsatisfied with the other males answer. Hinata nodded in response as they continued their walk in silence.
They got to Kenma's house and walked in to be greeted by his dog. His parents weren't home which wasn't anything new. They worked pretty late and wouldn't be home until much later if at all. Hinata smiled at the dog and bent down to pet it. "Hey buddy. I've missed you." He said as he continued to love on the dog which in return would lick him and wag his tail in happiness. Kenma watched as the display of affection continued for a couple minutes before Hinata got up and asked if he could shower.
"Baka, I don't know why you're asking all of a sudden. My house is your house." Kenma answered. Hinata giggled in response. "You know where everything is and if you need extra clothes, you also know where to find them." He continued as he went and sat in the living room to play some video games. Curiosity continued to cloud his mind while he tried to concentrate on the video game. 'Fuck.'
Some time passed before Hinata came to join him on the couch, his orange hair still wet. Kenma looked at the clothes he had on and noticed he was wearing the same thing he came in. Which wasn't even what Hinata had initially left his house in, meaning that it belonged to none other than Kageyama.
"Hey, uh, you do realize showering but not changing your clothes kinda' defeats the purpose of you showering right?" He asked, trying to sound as playful as his tone would allow him.
"Oh, ha, yeah. But I didn't want to dirty any of your clothes so I figured this would be fine until I go home." Hinata replied with a shrug. Kenma looked at his friend and strained a smile, he knew that Hinata was hiding something from him. Not that he was obligated to know but considering that they were best friends, it wounded his heart. "Anyways, I'm glad nothing happened over there with Tobio. I couldn't sleep all too well knowing that that asshole was the one watching over you. Do you remember anything?" He asked, hoping that this would break the ice.
Hinata shook his head, "No, I don't remember much actually. Hardly remember leaving here. He told me that I had thrown up everywhere and he washed me up and put me in clean clothes."
"Wait... Does that mean that he saw you in your underwear?" Kenma asked, anger rebuilding up inside him. Hinata's cheeks lit up in response only furthering Kenma's anger.
"That perverted mother fucker." He let out. Kenma had always been a rather shy person, quiet around anyone new, and hated saying things that may have caused others not liking him, but when it came to Hinata, it was as if he was another person entirely. He got up and paced the room as he replayed an unrealistic scenario of what he thought happened at Kageyama's place.
"I don't think he meant it in a harmful or perverted manner, pudding head. Would you have preferred he left me to lay in my own barf?" Hinata questioned him. Kenma paused in his pace and looked at Hinata.
"I would have preferred you coming back home with me. I would've preferred that jackass butting the fuck out when I was trying to bring you back. I would've preferred stopping us from getting drunk. I would have preferred if we hadn't even gone there in the first place Shōyō." Frustration seething out in his words. Hinata remained silent as he looked down at his lap. Kenma realizing his sudden outburst, "I'm sor--"
"He asked me out on a date." Hinata whispered, cutting off Kenma's apology.
"What?" He asked, his body going stiff.
"Kageyama asked me to go on a date with him." Hinata repeated.
"And what? Are you actually going to go through with it?" Kenma responded.
"I don't know pudding. There are so many confusing factors to this and a lot of new feelings that have been said." Shōyō continued, "But I didn't tell him no."
Kenma sat as he tried to process the idea of Kageyama asking Hinata on a date. He let out a humorless chuckle. "Is that what you want? To go on date with him?"
"I mean, I don't know. I'm not completely opposed to the idea. I like him Kenma. Maybe this is a step in the right direction." Hinata answered, not catching on to Kenma's tone of voice or lack of body language.
Swallowing the lump of emotions, "Well then maybe you should go on a date with him. But you should sleep on it. Really think about your next step." Kenma replied, a forced smile displayed. Hinata, who's eyes had remained on his lap, looked up at Kenma.
"You think so? Your face doesn't seem all too convincing." He let on, tilting his head. Kenma let out a deep sigh and looked down at his own lap, putting up a better facade. "Yeah, orange. Whatever you decide to do, I'll support you all the way."
Hinata gave him a small smile. "Mmmm. I'll think about it. But thank you pudding head. Your opinion is always valid to me. Love you." He said as he leaned over to give Kenma a hug.
"I love you too." Kenma answered as he wrapped his arms around the other, his words and feelings being much deeper than the ones he received.
