The Queen [Haikyuu!! Captains X Reader]

Chapter Seven

You walked down the stairs, seeing Tadao sitting on the couch and playing on the PS4. He glanced at you when you walked into the living room, but you went straight to the kitchen. You know Tadao wouldn't do anything to you because he's not that type of man you've known from observation. Riley laid in the living room, you decided to ask Tadao if he wants anything to eat. "H-Hey Tadao, do you want anything?"

"Uh, no thank you," Tadao said, pausing his game and he walked into the kitchen. "[Name], why don't you relax. I promise you, nothing will happen." You raised your brow at his behavior, wondering why he's acting like this. "I know about what Ryusei did to you and I promise I won't say anything to the Osamu."

"W-Why?" You asked, staring at Tadao with wide eyes.

"Because, you didn't grow up in this life. You should have been living a normal life," Tadao said, giving you a pity look in his eyes. "Now, go sit on the couch and I'll make you some, Queen." You blushed, going into the living room and sitting down on the couch. Riley rested his head in your lap, letting you pet his head.

You wonder why Tadao just now wanted to say something about Ryusei touching you. At least he understands that you aren't meant to be living with them nor be going through that you are. You wonder if you'll be able to make another friend besides Tsukishima or maybe Tadao could help you leave this life. You don't want to see any more of this.

Tadao came back with a sandwich, placing it on the coffee table and he sat down next to you, continuing on playing his game. He seemed to have no interest in you, but he wanted to have small talk. Should you start the conversation or wait for Tadao to make the first topic.

"So, w-what's this game about?" You asked, taking a bite into the sandwhich. Tadao glanced at you, a smile growing on his face.

"Well, it's just a zombies game so far, but there's a different mode. Like multiplayer and single player mode, but personally, I like zombies better," Tadao said, his first person character running around in circles and sometimes killing zombies behind him. "Sometimes me and Osamu would bet on who can kill the most zombies. So, what do you do for fun while you're literally trapped here."

"Ah, I-I go to the grand hall and stare outside the window," you said, shrugging your shoulders. You finished eating your sandwich, but you gave some to Riley.

"You know, if you do escape, then do whatever you want and if you want to come back, if you'd want to, just go to that cafe Osamu kidnapped you from," Tadao whispered, your eyes widen. You nodded your head, smiling to yourself and Tadao chuckled. "You know, smiling suits you best, but I understand it's not possible in this situation."

"W-Why would y-you want to help me? Wouldn't you get in trouble?" You asked, looking down at your lap out of embarrassment. Tadao let out a sigh, pausing his game and he leaned back into the couch with his arms crossed.

You know that if someone betrays Osamu, they'd receive the worst punishment in their life. You remember one night, you could hear the screams of the man that dared betrayed Osamu. The man stayed within the basement of the mansion for almost a month and you knew that Osamu would feed the man just to keep him alive. You wish that you didn't have to hear the screams each night. You just don't want that to happen to Tadao or anyone for that matter.

"I have my ways, [Name]. Don't forget that and besides, I wasn't the one that laid a hand on Osamu's Queen," Tadao stated, already having a plan in his head. "I've been planning this since you've first came." Your eyes widen, feeling grateful knowing that Tsukishima isn't the only one that really cares about you.

"T-Thank you so much, Tadao!" You sobbed, tears rolling down your cheeks and Tadao chuckled, wiping your tears away with his finger. "It's just, I miss my old life and I never wanted to be a part of this. R-Ryota started acting nice to me for the past 5 months by not having sex with me and not hitting me."
