after Kuroo went off to university, no one reminded Kenma to eat.
or drink water.
no one walked with him to school, so most days he stopped going.
although he still kept his grades up, he lost interest in most everything else.
the first time it happened it was an accident. or so he told himself
Kenma was simply making a bowl of ramen and burned the side of his hand on the stove. he didn't flinch. it felt...good?
the hot metal made him feel, something he hadn't done for a while.
even though he would never admit it, everything from that point on was intentional.
akaashi was trying to recover, escaping his life of abuse didn't serve well with social skills. he wasnt aware that something as small as a hug could feel so nice.
when kenma and akaashi met for the first time, neither knew anything about each other. but to survive university they might have to reveal some things that they'd rather not.
oh yeah trigger warning i guess this is kinda graphic
