asahi doesn’t know he fits time in for everything. he’s two months into the nursing program at the university, and he refused to give up his spot on the volleyball team. he temporarily gave it up once — the year he had off between high school and attending university. the gentle giant was quick to learn it’s a part of him that he simply cannot part with.
the click of a door being shut lulls him from his unintentional slumber. a yelp escapes his lips as he drops the heavy textbook from his hand onto his face. his torso lifts from the mattress, an attempt to get the heavily inked pages off his face, only to find out at the last second … he fell asleep too close to the edge.
there’s a thud as his body crumbles on the ground. running on two hours of sleep a night for the last three nights have caused him to become rather clumsy off the court, much to his dismay.
chocolate hues look up, finding his ( to him ) upside-down roommate. ❛ kuroo-kun, your class is over already ? ❜
Lady luck is ever on Kuroo’s side, it seems. With the keys to his dorm room in one hand a steaming cup of coffee in the other ( the sides of the Styrofoam containing it still hot to the touch ), the unforeseen cacophony which assaulted him the moment the door opened startled him far more than he would ever prefer to admit — that he manages not to upset the burning liquid all over himself is nothing short of miraculous.
“What?” His hazel eyes are still wide from the disturbance to his previously quiet day, and a beat passes before Asahi’s words appear to have registered. “Yeah, it’s over. Been over. I tried to call you to find out if you wanted me to get you anything, but I guess you were otherwise occupied.” An eyebrow quirks upwards.
Tossing his keyring atop his desk, Kuroo leans down just enough to grip Asahi’s hand in his own. “I get that you’re ‘ volleyball Jesus ’ or whatever, but GOD sleeps, too, y’know.” The difficult aspect of university? Treading the tenuous line between hard worker and zombie.
He taps his index finger against the side of his cup. “I’ll get you up if actually sleep tonight. And you can have this. It’s kinda obvious that you need it more than I do.”
