hinata: why are you sighing kageyama? is there something bothering you? sighing isn't good for your skin! you should tell someone if something is bothering you! otherwise you're gonna get wrinkles all over your face and you'll go from kageyama to wrinkly-yama! shiwayama! kageshiwama!
[Hinata made the mistake of eating the chocolates Kageyama received on Valentine's day and reading some sincere love letters dedicated to Kageyama. These feelings are the culmination of the poor maiden hearts that had the misfortune of becoming infatuated with the rudest, meanest and the world's densest guy to walk on earth. Not Hinata though--he knows his type is someone cute, and Kageyama is definitely anything but.]
Hinata came to dread valentines day, because all the girls are too shy to give their letters or chocolates to Kageyama in person, and Hinata's too soft-hearted to refuse their requests. Kageyama tells Hinata to throw all that stuff out, and that he doesn't intend to accept any of it, so don't waste his time. Hinata complains about how insensitive Kageyama is being, saying that he's a jerk for not providing some closure for them, to which Kageyama responds, "they don't deserve that courtesy when they can't even confess in person".
"Fine! don't come looking to me for help when all of your admirers find their letters and chocolate in the dumpster!" Hinata so confidently proclaimed, but he still really felt too bad standing in front of a bin with a bag full of heartfelt messages and gifts, so he decided he'd at the very least not let the chocolate go to waste.
But the morbid curiosity within him grows and grows, endlessly wondering about the contents of those cute and fluffy looking letters. His conscience was already wavering, eating his rival—er, partner?—or maybe, teammate... 's chocolates, which was already pretty pathetic in of itself, but since he was already this deep, one or two letters won't hurt to read... right?
Meanwhile, Kageyama recalls what he said to Hinata about deserving courtesy--maybe those words were really directed at himself when he can't even muster the courage to admit he has feelings much more complex than platonic love, or heated rivalry for the orange menace.
Kageyama doesn't know how to express himself, so he dearly hopes Hinata will look his way first before he can decide what to say--after all, he is only entitled closure if and only if Kageyama confesses in person.
Or, you know, Kageyama will also accept his confession--from him specifically, and not on behalf of someone else--from Hinata Shouyou himself.

happy valentine's! 💝
Hinata made the first mistake of eating the chocolates Kageyama received on Valentine's day.
Opening love letters dedicated to Kageyama was his second, and his third mistake?
Reading them.
Hinata could feel the tender hearts of all the poor maidens of Karasuno High penned into every word in the letters.
Oh, how the misguided innocent souls have been deceived by their blind infatuation for the rudest, meanest and the world's densest guy to walk on earth.
Those were certainly not qualities you'd want in a partner, let alone flattering--and Hinata can openly admit because he has experienced Kageyama at his worst.
He knows for sure that his type is someone cute, and Kageyama is definitely anything but.
He used to have dreams of getting showered with love and attention on Valentine's Day, but the gap between reality and dreams could not be any wider.
Was it his height, or the lack thereof? All the girls in his school were convinced they were in love with Kageyama, but why?
Hinata didn't understand, and he didn't want to understand either.
He does, however, sometimes catch himself thinking that if Kageyama just shut his foul-mouth up and looked pretty, then maybe he'd be 5% more tolerable.
In their 2nd year, Hinata's poor heart got crushed over and over by girls who were too shy to give their letters or chocolates to Kageyama in person, but had the heart to break poor Hinata's.
Perhaps he has no one to blame but himself for being too soft-hearted to refuse.
"Here."
"Huh?"
Hinata clicked his tongue as he put a bag full of pink and red goodies inside on Kageyama's desk.
"Urgh, I can't believe your shoe locker got full too..."
Kageyama stared blankly for a few seconds before responding, "Just throw it out."
"Uh... Excuse me?"
"You weren't listening to me? I said throw it out, I'm not gonna accept any of it."
"Wow, speak about entitled, as expected of the—" Hinata shoved a hand up to his mouth before the taboo word 'king' escaped. "Urgh! You're such an unlikeable dense guy!"
"Hmph," Kageyama went back to reading his Volleyball Monthly by flicking a couple of pages.
Meanwhile, Hinata mulled over how bad it would look for him to throw away chocolates and letters that wasn't even intended for him.
"You could at least give some closure..."
"They haven't earned it if they couldn't tell me straight up."
"Do you know how scary it is to confess your feelings for someone with the possibility of being turned down?!"
Kageyama's hands flinched, and Hinata noticed but didn't have time to comment.
"Fine! Don't come looking to me for help when all of your admirers find out their letters and chocolate in the dumpster!"
Hinata pulled a face and stuck his tongue out as he dashed out of the classroom and ran straight to the furthest garbage bin he knew on campus.
But it just felt wrong treating a bag full of heartfelt messages and gifts like a garbage bag.
Well, one man's trash is one man's treasure, right?
Yeah, that's it... He's doing his part in reducing waste by eating his rival—er, partner?—or maybe, teammate...'s chocolates...
Okay, that was pretty pathetic in of itself, but since he was already this deep, one or two letters won't hurt to read... right?
...When has Hinata ever been right? He blames the chocolates for being made with love for making his chest feel fuzzy at the thought of Kageyama.
He blames the shoujo mangas Natsu makes him read as bed time stories for making his heart beat fast with every letter written about Kageyama's hair, his eyes.
He wants to blame Kageyama, but he couldn't.
While he has experienced Kageyama at his worst, he has also experienced him at his best too.
"Blergh, this one's bitter," Hinata complained, but swallowed it anyway.
Unbeknownst to Hinata, Kageyama was watching him from afar, hidden behind a wall with something in his hands.
'Closure, huh...'
Words were never Kageyama's forte—it could never be enough to capture what he feels for Hinata. While he has undeniably strong feelings for the ginger, there is also an equally strong emotion co-existing besides it—a fear of rejection.
'Who's the dense one now?'
Kageyama hopes that someday Hinata will look in his way first before he can find the right words to say because he knows that if it's Hinata, he always knows the right words to say.
He knows that the best out of anyone.
"Hinata... Next time you come to me with chocolates and love letters, I hope they're from you, not on the behalf of someone else."
Kageyama mumbled the words he was too nervous to say to his crush under his breath.
"I won't refuse you."

user's note: YAY i wrote something! im surprised every time i manage to write something, it feels like such a rarity nowadays :'D the original was an old fic i wrote, so old that it was originally posted on my tumblr lol i think i did it justice!
kghn compete with each other to see who can win the first (or last) yakisoba bread from the school canteen.
kageyama wins, but he doesn't know what to do with the yakisoba bread because he doesn't eat canteen food.
aaand then they argue over why they competed in the first place...
"isn't that obvious?! i cant let you win!"
"but you don't even EAT YAKISOBA BREAD!!!"
"...f-fine, have it then."
"now i feel like you're pitying me! i dont want soggy pity yakisoba bread!"
"YOU'RE SO ANNOYING!!! weren't you just complaining about it just then?!"
hinata insisted on splitting it in half to "make it fair", spent an eternity measuring the length and width of the yakisoba bread in a rather... ahem, questionable manner, but kageyama digressed.
needless to say, hinata was just as bad at measuring things as he was at maths, and even though he had the perfect line visualised in his head, he ended up massacring the poor yakisoba bread.
"look at what you did to the perfectly good yakisoba bread! YOU GAVE IT ANXIETY!"
"i-it's still edible-"
"THE SOBA IS FALLING OUT OF THE GODDAMN BREAD YOU DUMBASS IDIOT, THIS IS JUST BREAD NOW-"
...a similar argument will surely take place at sakanoshita's store over whether the winner or loser should pay for the meat buns.
