Daichi x Yuuji [18+]

- In the AlleyWay -

"It's fucking freezing!"
"Watch your language, Daichi might hear you." Noya and Tanaka snicker to each other as they lead the pack to the Karaoke place. From behind them, they feel a looming aura which quickly shuts them up. They dare to turn slightly, peeking sheepishly, and are met with an infuriated Daichi. Before they can run he grabs both their collars.

"If you two keep acting up, I'll make you do 500 flying laps when we get back after Winter break!" He lets them go and they run away, grabbing at each other to protect themselves. Daichi remains glaring at them, his arms folded, until Suga comes up behind him and pats his shoulder. As he does this, his once malicious aura seeps down to a bearable level.

This doesn't last long as his attention is forced onto Hinata and Kageyama. They're squawking at each other over something to do with tangerines and milk, but they're drawing a lot of attention. On que, Asahi steps in and plants a firm shoulder on each of the boys. They look up at him, follow his gaze, and notice an irritated Daichi. The argument is quietly settled and the group continues to walk at an acceptable volume.

"They're being tame, considering it's Christmas and all." Suga looks around and smiles, appreciating how calm Daichi's bad mood had got them. It was unfortunate that his mood had turned sour in the process, but this was a different setting than the gym.

"This isn't just our own reputations, it's the school's too. We're alright in a Volleyball setting but things like going out together, in the presence of every-day-people, they can get out of hand."

"Ah, so that's why you're on guard?" Suga chuckles to himself. He runs in between Noya and Tanaka to separate them, slinging his arms over their shoulders.

Daichi sighs to himself and carries on walking, talking to Ennoshita, until something catches his eye; walking towards him is a boy with blonde spiky hair, bright almond eyes and black piercings in his ears. As they come to pass each other, Daichi keeps his eyes on Terushima a second too long and they make contact.

His lips curl into a smirk and his eyes glow at the sight of him. He stops in his tracks but isn't met with the same familiarity. Daichi is so intent on walking on that he doesn't realise Hinata, Asahi and Kageyama stopping.

"Oi, don't I recognise you from somewhere?" Hinata squints his eyes, examining Terushima in a faint recollection.

"Oh, if it isn't Chibi-chan." He grins and ruffles through Hinata's hair, looking fondly at the tiny prodigy.

"Mr. Close-Cropped Hair!" His eyes pop in realisation and it makes Terushima laugh.

"That's not even a name Hinata?" Asahi shakes his head and tries to smile an apology.

"Boke, Hinata." they get into a slight scrap but Asahi forces them apart.

"Aren't you from Johzenji? I kind of recognise the hair...and the piercings." He's trembling slightly but managing to smile through it. Terushima recalls something Hana told him about their ace being a bit timid.

"Yeah, people say I look a bit wild, but I promise I'm not a delinquent. And yeah I'm the Captain, and I already know you guys are Karasuno." He grins, hoping it'll ease the bigger guy's nerves and it seems like it has. "Where you guys off to? See you've been ditched - not very Captain-like if you ask me."

"Ah! Do you know the way to the karaoke place?" Although it seemed like he was calming down, Asahi was getting more worried by the second. He only went into town a couple times a year and his sense of direction was the worse.

"I actually just came from that direction, I'll take you." They all start making their way down the street and the dream team follow behind Asahi and Terushima.
