Tsukushima Kei - Shy?

Tsukishima Kei. One of the smartest, tallest, most annoying, and saltiest french fry you've ever met. He belongs nowhere in your standards. Your outgoing personality is looking for a shy type, but all you ever get from this guy are insults and mean jokes. You kept insisting yourself that Yamaguchi would be a better resolve, but your heart won't stop coming back to this asshole.

"Yams!" You call out to his friend. "I want to talk to you before we get to our clubs. Do you have a minute?"

"S-Sure, (N/N)!" He slightly stuttered but it was pretty cute. Tsukishima just watched Yamaguchi approach you and didn't say a word. Not knowing what was on his mind, you probably thought he was arranging an insult in his head when he gets a chance later. After your talk with Yamaguchi and as the both of you waved goodbye at each other, you noticed that Tsukishima stayed silent. What's up with him? He didn't even smirk or anything.

Worried, you decided to shake it off. He's probably thinking about his practice match for tomorrow right? He might not look like it, but you know that he's hooked on volleyball now.

When your club had finished, you immediately went to their gym to watch them practice and to wait for Tsukishima and Yamaguchi so the three of you could go home together. As you entered, you were greeted by the team.

"Hey, (F/N)! Did you see my spike?" Hinata approached you, looking energetic as ever.

"Of course! I noticed it as I entered. It was like whoosh and then bang!" You gestured.

"I know right! My spike before that was better! It went like swoosh then suddenly it went kaboom!" Hinata stated. Knowing where this conversation is going, you knew Tsukishima would be giving mean comments, but it didn't seem like it right now. You glanced at him on the other side of the court, silently drinking water.

You decided to ask Hinata. "Hey, has Tsukishima been silent like that?"

Hinata nodded. "Ever since he got here, he was really quiet during practice. Even if Kageyama would insult him or something, he kept his mouth shut. I don't know what's wrong with him though."

You glanced at him once more and nodded with a smile. "Thank you, Hinata! Sorry for disturbing your practice."

"No worries!" Hinata said and approached Kageyama. You sat on a bench and sighed. You can't help but wonder if Tsukishima is sick or depressed. What could've made him like this?

"Bye guys!" You and Yamaguchi waved at the other team members as the three of you were already going home. Tsukishima still kept silent. As the three of you walked home, everything was awkward. Yamaguchi would give you concerned side glances and then looking at the tall guy with his headphones hanging on his neck. It was obvious that none of us knew what was wrong with him.

"Bye Yams! See you tomorrow!" You waved goodbye to your good friend. You silently wished that Yamaguchi wouldn't leave the both you but sadly, you and Tsukishima were neighbors. There was no escape.

"See you!" He waved and eyed Tsukishima, who wasn't facing him and was incredibly silent up until now. You nodded and mouthed that you would take care of it, but you didn't know what to do. As the both of you walked through the streets, you can't take the awkwardness in between the both of your right now. The moment you had the confidence to talk, the both of you were already in front of his house.

"See you, (L/N)." He said and waved boringly. You can't take it anymore. You don't want to see your asshole being emo like this.

"What's wrong with you, Tsukishima?!" You can't help but shout loud and clear for him to hear. Unfortunately, he looked back with empty eyes. For some reason, it hurts you so much.

"What's wrong with me? Maybe you should ask yourself that." He replied, making you a little happy that he's still salty as ever but at the same time sad because of what he said. Without hesitation, you pulled his uniform, making him only inches closer to you.

"Why have you been so quiet today? Not that I wanted to hear your insults, but it's just not like you! You're always salty as heck, but I can't help but feel fed up about your actions the whole day. Why do you look so sad?!" You grasped his uniform tightly, making it crumpled, and silently holding back tears.

"S-Sad? Did I look... sad?" You looked up to see his face. He's slightly red and looked so shocked.

"Yes you did! What else do you think you looked like?" You simply glared at him. Why does he look like he wasn't expecting that from you?

"I-I just..." He scratched is neck and looked away. For some reason, he didn't look like Tsukishima at all.

"You just what?"

He took a deep breath and looked at you straight in the eye, "Are you and Yamaguchi dating...?"

After he said those words, you can't help but chuckle.

"Why would you think that way, Tsukishima?" You asked.

"You guys... are always talking and using cute nicknames and... you said you like shy types, right?" Looking at his face, he's red as a tomato. You found it cute, but you don't know if he's embarrassed or something.

"Yeah, I do have a thing for shy types," you said and started to whisper, hoping he wouldn't hear it, "but you're an exemption."

"Eh? What did you say?" He asked.

"N-Nothing! Why are you even asking me this?"

"It's because..." he hesitated. "Ilikeyou."

"What? Can you say that again?" You asked. You heard it though, but you just wanted to make sure you weren't in some weird dream.

"I said Ilikeyousomuch, (L/N) (F/N)!" He added. You can't help but blush, especially seeing Tsukishima acting shy for the first time.

Without a doubt, you hugged him tightly. "I like you so much too, Tsukishima Kei!"

There was silence between the both of you for a while, but exchanging hugs was making it comfortably better. When the both of you pulled away from that long lasting hug, he suddenly went back to his normal self.

Grinning from cheek to cheek, he exclaimed, "Go out with me this weekend, (N/N)."

"Got it, Tsukki!" You agreed.

"Good night, (N/N) the shorty."

"Good night to you too, Saltyshima."
