wc - 3715 song - apocalypse by cigarettes after sex
Daisuga! <3 Oneshot + Based off Apocalypse by Cigarettes After Sex. This oneshot was unexpectedly long
Sugas POV:
I realized my feelings have changed.. I don't think I only love him as a friend. My feelings have become something more than that. I talked to Asahi about it, and he said that he could tell that my feelings had become romantic. Of course he'd notice, he notices everything. Asahi also said that the other teammates have realized, but he doesn't think Daichi noticed.
I mean.. I'm sort of grateful Daichi hasn't noticed. But, at the same time I kind of wanted him to know, that way I wouldn't really have to say anything. Though.. his answer could be one I really don't want to hear. His answer could be something so soul crushing that it throws me into a never ending spiral. I think I will be fine just being his best friend, as long as I can have him in my life. I mean he's been one of my best friends for such a long time. I don't want to jeopardize that bad confessing these feelings I have for him.
I feel kind of worried that the rest of the team knows about my feelings. Well, at least it seems like the idea of me liking another man doesn't bother them as they haven't said anything to me about it, or maybe they just don't care enough to express their hatred towards the idea. Maybe they do care enough to express their hatred about me liking males but don't show it by talking to me, but, instead, they show it by taking bad about me to others. Maybe more of the students know..
No, I can't let these thoughts get the best of me. I have to stay positive. I love the team, hopefully they love me too. I will just talk to Asahi about it. Asahi is a great friend, he knows how to help, and he's a great listener. Of course I do the same for him. Maybe I can encourage Asahi to confess his feelings as well. He has liked Noya for so long. I'm not really surprised that Noya hasn't noticed though. Noya is kind of dense.
Maybe there's a chance Daichi actually likes me back. Maybe..
I closed my notes tab on my phone, letting my thoughts rest. I think it's strange that the easiest way for me to express my feelings is through some notes app on my phone.
I click on my IMessage icon. Luckily, it wasn't hard to find Asahis contact since we text a lot everyday.
_
Hey, Asa, I have a question
What is it :)
Soo, you know how I like Daichi?
Yes, ofc
Can you give me some advice, like how to tell him or suppress the feeling?
Ofc. For starters, you definitely shouldn't just suppress your feelings. It will just hurt in the end. Secondly, I would just start sending him some hints, see what kind of responses you get back. Then eventually, just tell him how you feel. You know he won't be rude about it, even if he doesn't feel the same. Though, I'm 99% sure he does. I hope that helps
Thank you, Asahi. That actually helped a lot. I will start giving hints tomorrow :) have a great night
Good :) have a great night too
_
I think I'll start off by giving small hints, then progressively make the hints a bit more blunt. But, still to where he doesn't know I like him 100% yet. Then when I finally know for sure that he likes me, that's when I'll confess my feelings.
Until then, I should get some rest.
I plugged my phone up and put it on do not disturb. I hit play on one of my playlists on Spotify.
This is just how I usually sleep. It's actually really comforting.
I rolled over, onto my side, closing my eyes. I drifted off to sleep, dreaming about random scenarios that matched each song that played. I find it Strange I can hear things in my sleep.
_
*Buzz*
*Ring*
*Buzz*
I rolled over, sighing as I clicked the stop button on my phone. I rubbed some of the tiredness out of my eyes.
I jumped out of bed as soon as I remembered what I get to do today.
I rushed over to my closet and pulled out a comfortable yet decent looking outfit.
I held the clothes over my arm as I walked into my bathroom to get ready for the morning.
I took a nice hot shower before brushing my hair and teeth.
I slid on my clothes and shoes before rushing out of the door.
'Oh ew..' I thought to myself, I just remembered that we have morning practice today.
I will just take another shower once I get home.
Yeah, that solves that problem.
_
I slid my phone into my bag since I arrived at the gym.
My hand grasped the handle before pulling the door open. I stepped inside, spotting Kageyama, Hinata, Daichi, Asahi and a few second years. It makes that some of the others haven't arrived yet as practice doesn't start for another 20 minutes.
I looked up and seen Asahi walking towards me.
"Good morning, Suga", Asahi said, wearing a smile.
"Good morning", I returned the smile.
"Do you want to talk or warm up early?"
"Why don't we do both", I took Asahis hand and walked over to a cleared space in the gym.
We begone doing some basic stretches as we talked, after I changed into something suitable to practice in.
Asahi and I talked about random things, like our plans for the weekend to talking about our crushes. We were so focused on our conversations that we didn't noticed that the other members had arrived. Well at least not until Daichi had spoke.
"Now that everyone is here, we can begin practice. Half of us on each side of the court. We are starting off with a match between each other", Daichi explained as he now had everyone's attention.
I went on the same side as Asahi. Tsukishima, Kageyama and Noya. Hinata, Tanaka, Yamaguchi, Daichi and Ennoshita were on the other side. 5 of us on each side, making it even.
_
"Noo, im so exhausted. Now school is going to suck more today", Tanaka went on a rant.
Noya was aggressively nodding his head, showing agreement with what Tanaka was saying.
We were in the club room, changing. Well most of us anyways. Some of the others had changed quickly and are back in class.
"Daichi, do you want to walk to class with me and Suga?", I knew exactly what Asahi was trying to do.
I just know him too well.
"Sure, why not", Daichi smiled as he picked up his bag.
"Great. Are y'all ready to go?", Asahi looked at the both of us.
"I am", I picked up my bag, putting the strap on my shoulder.
"And I am ready as well", Daichi gave Asahi a nod, signaling that he can now open the door.
Asahi gave a nod back before turning around, twisting the knob and opening the door.
Once we were all out of the club room, Daichi shut the door. He made sure to lock the door behind him.
We begone our walk to our class. Luckily, us three had the same 1st period.
Asahi had opened the buildings doors for us. Me and Daichi thanked Asahi as we stepped into the school.
"Oh, Suga, look at this picture", Asahi handed me his phone.
I could see the small smirk on his face.
I looked at the screen. The picture was of some random boy with brown hair.
Asahi and Daichi were looking over my shoulders.
"Soo, what do you think about him?", Asahi asked, giving my side a gentle nudge.
"I think hes cute", I shrugged, handing Asahi his phone back.
I only gave that response because I know that was what Asahi wanted to hear. It was apart of this small plan he had.
"Anything you really like about him?", Asahi made it quite clear to me about what answer he wanted.
"His hair, I like the color, and his hair looks fluffy", I gave another shrug, refusing to look in Daichis direction.
I didn't want to see Daichis reaction to anything I said. I kind of just bluntly admitted that I have some attraction to males. Maybe he doesn't know that it's not only some attraction and that I have no attraction to females at all.
"Hmm, okay", Asahi nodded, "Well we are at our classroom now."
I looked up, we were in fact in front of our classroom.
"After class, wait right here so we can all walk together to our next class", I said, wearing a smile as I walked into the classroom.
We parted our ways since our desks were not close to each others. That's totally not because Daichi, Asahi and I got in trouble for always talking in the class.
_
Asahi was still in the classroom. He was trying to find some way to get extra credit. That meant it was just me and Daichi standing in the hall together. True, we could've already left and went to our next class. But, we told Asahi we would wait for him.
"I don't know why he's asking for extra credit. He has an A in the class", Daichi chuckled.
I nodded agreeing with him, "I really don't know why either."
"Suga, you know I'm your best friend, right?"
I looked up at Daichi. I was slightly confused, but I nodded again. This was very random.
"Yeah of course, why?"
"So you know you can tell me anything", Daichi spoke slowly.
Honestly, I'm even more confused.
"I know. But this is so random", I heard Daichi give a soft sigh before speaking again.
"I can tell that there's something on your mind. I can also tell that Asahi knows what it is", Daichi took a small pause, "if you aren't comfortable sharing with me, I understand that. Just know that I'll never judge you."
A smile appeared on my face before I replied, "thank you, Daichi. You're right, there is something on my mind. I think it's time I told you."
Daichi seemed fully invested in what I had to say. I took a deep breath before speaking.
"I'm gay", I turned my head, so I wouldn't have to see Daichis face.
"Is that all?", Daichi took a step in front of me.
Now I was looking at him.
I nodded, "yeah.."
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't scared to hear his response.
"Well of course I support you. I'm gay too, I thought you knew", Daichi added a light chuckle at the end.
"I guess I've just been so worried about how'd you see me if you found out I was gay to realize that you are too."
I genuinely felt so much better. I don't know why I'd ever think Daichi would ever think any less of me just because of my sexuality. Daichi is a great guy, he'd never change his viewing on me for something so dumb.
Daichi looked like he was about to say something, but Asahi had walked up to us.
"I get extra credit", Asahi waved the three sheets of paper, in his hand, around.
I smiled, "I don't know why you need it though. You have an A in the class."
"Oh I know.", Asahi gave me a small smirk, "I wanted to get the 96 up."
I can't believe him. It's like he knew I'd come out to Daichi. It's like he knew Daichi would come out to me as well. It's like this was just one of his plans, pushing me forward to finally confessing to Daichi.
"I suppose that's a valid reason. Now we should hurry before we are late to 2nd period", Daichi interrupted my thoughts.
Daichi, Asahi and I took off through the halls, desperate to not be late.
Spoiler alert, we were late.
_
'Finally' I thought to myself, 'It's finally time for lunch'.
I stepped into the cafeteria, immediately greeted by Asahi.
Asahi and I quickly made our way through the line and got our food. We briskly walked over to the table Daichi was at. We always sit together.
Daichi always brings his own lunch, so he saves the table for us.
"Wait.. you're not wrong. Maybe it actually tastes good today", I quickly picked up my fork.
I'm extremely hungry, so I hope the food tastes good.
I picked up some of the food with my fork. I brought the fork up to my face and I took a bit. I immediately scrunched up my nose, earning a laugh from Asahi and Daichi.
"Yeah.. not good", I put down my fork and took a sip from my water bottle.
"Thanks for trying it before me. Now I don't have to suffer", Asahi moved his tray slightly forward.
I gave Asahi a glare, "you asshat."
A coughing noise came from Daichi, causing me to look up at him.
Daichi had choked on his water and spat it out. Even better, it had landed on Asahi.
"That's what you get", I bursted out laughing.
"Shut it", Asahi shook his hand, causing some water droplets to land on me.
"Bleh", I shook my head.
"Haha, don't laugh at me", Asahi crossed his arms.
I shot him a glare before looking at Daichi. I realized I don't know if we have after school practice today or not. As vice captain, I need to figure out the schedule.
"Do we have after school practice today?", I kind of hope we do.
It will give me more time with Daichi.
"Mhm we do, and we also have after school practice tomorrow. I'll print the schedule for you", Daichi smiled.
Daichi took out a pen and wrote something down on a sticky note. I think it was to remember to print me a copy of the schedule.
'Cute'
I gave my wrist a slight pinch. I cannot allow myself to think these things. Daichi is just my best friend. My best friend who I fell in love with..
My thoughts were interrupted by Daichi shaking my shoulder.
"Hm?", I looked up at Daichi, confused.
"You zoned out for so long it's time to go to our last class of the day", I could tell Daichi held back a laugh as I jumped out of my seat, picking up my bag.
Luckily, I had some time to spear, and Daichi walked me to class. I hope he couldn't hear how loud my heart was beating. It felt as if my heart was going to pound out of my chest.
_
I let out a sigh of relief as I walked into the club room. Finally classes were over.
"Sugaa!", Noya ran over to me.
"Haha, hey Noya", I patted his head.
Noya stepped away, so I can have room to change.
I laid my bag down as I took out some suitable clothes to practice in. I changed into the clothes rather quickly.
Once I finished changing, Noya and Tanaka grabbed each of my arms and dragged me to the gym.
Of course, I didn't stop them from doing so. I don't even mind them dragging me. It doesn't even hurt when they do so.
"Since Kageyama will be setting to Hinata for warm ups, me and Tanaka were wondering if you could set to us?"
"Oh of course, I don't mind", I'm glad they wanted me to set to them.
It makes me feel included. I know that's kind of dumb to say, but it's just reassuring to me. It makes me feel wanted/needed in a sense. It sounds so dumb to think.
Noya sprinted off but quickly came back, he now had a volleyball in his hands.
"Ready?", Noya tossed me Ball.
"Of course", I set the ball to Tanaka from where I was standing.
I didn't feel like stepping on the court right now. So, we formed a mini circle, well it was more of a triangle.
I mean it's a good way to warm up for practice. It's something simple but affective.
_
Coach Ukai blew his whistle, so we all gathered around him, sitting in a circle. He told us about upcoming games, the closest one being in a week.
"Now for practice", Ukai sighed, "we are doing a bonding game. You will have a partner, and one of y'all's wrists and ankles will be tied together. Y'all will have to run two laps on the track. I decided to be nice and allow y'all to pick your partner."
Ukai gestured for us to get up and pick a partner.
I was going to partner up with Asahi, but when I finally spotted him, he was with Noya.
Daichi walked over to me, "want to be my partner, Suga?"
I'm so glad he asked me. I would've never had to courage to ask him myself.
"Sure", I gave Daichi a smile.
_
We were all lined up on the track, coach Ukai finished tying our wrists and ankles together.
This wasn't necessarily a race, Ukai said it's more of a bonding experience.
I mean I'm not really complaining, Daichi is my partner. I get to be close to him..
I hope I don't mess this up for him.
"Ready?", Ukai asked us.
He was standing on the side of the track, that way he wasn't in our ways.
"Yes, coach", we all answered in unison.
"Alright, then begin", Ukai blew his whistle.
Some started running, while others started off walking. They needed to adjust to the change.
After me and Daichi adjusted to the change, we picked up our pace. We weren't really running, it was more of a jog.
It was surprisingly easy to keep up with Daichi. I honestly thought it would've been more complicated.
_
We were just about to finish our second lap. I say almost because a stick came out of nowhere and was in my path. I somehow didn't see it, which led me to tripping over it.
I feel so dumb, how could I have not seen a stick. Maybe because it's dark out. Still.
I kept blaming myself, in my thoughts, as my body fell closer to the ground.
My thoughts were stopped when I didn't feel myself come in contact with the ground.
I opened my eyes, which I don't remember ever closing them.
I seen Daichi holding me up. He somehow managed to untie our wrists and catch me before I hit the ground. Daichi pulled me up, helping me stand back up straight.
"Are you alright?", Daichi asked when I was finally standing back up straight.
"Yeah, I am, thank you", Daichi had let me go.
I sort of miss the feeling.
_
Daichi and I have to sit out for the other bonding challenges, due to being disqualified. Some of our teammates were sitting out because they failed.
'Hm.. so this is something competitive', I thought as me and Daichi sat down beside Narita.
Narita is quiet, he keeps to himself. He usually just talks and practices with Ennoshita and Kinoshita. They are like a trio.
I feel like it was my fault me and Daichi got disqualified. I mean I was the one that tripped.
"I'm sorry for getting us disqualified", I looked over at Daichi.
He looked right back at me, "no, you're all good. It wasn't your fault that we tripped. I was the one that untied our wrists. It's not really any of our faults"
I gave Daichi a soft smile and a nod. I still felt a Little guilty, but I'll eventually get over it.
I think I'm ready to tell Daichi. I know i didn't really drop any hints, and I don't know for sure that he likes me back. But, Daichis just genuinely a good person, so even if he doesn't feel the same, he wouldn't treat me any differently.
I can't him right here though, there are others around us. I will do it after practice.
"Hey, Daichi. I have a question", I spoke up.
"Hm, what is it?", Daichi had raised his eyebrow slightly.
"Can you wait by the school gates after practice? I have something I need to tell you", I bit the inside of my cheek slightly, waiting for his response.
"Sure I can", Daichis face rested, and he gave me a small smile.
I nodded in response before turning my head to the track. I watched the others compete in more mini challenges.
_
I took a deep breath as I approached the gate. Daichi was already there, waiting for me.
'Here goes nothing..'
"Hi", Daichi greeted me as I stepped in front of him.
"I'm just going to be blunt about it, no beating around the bush. I like you and not as a friend. I have for a while not, but if you don't return these feelings, it's perfectly fine..", I spoke kind of fast.
"Suga.. I like you too. I've kind of been waiting for you to say something", I'm surprised Daichi had even heard what I had said.
"Soo..", I'm so awkward.
"So, would you like to be my boyfriend", I felt my face heat up when those words left Daichis mouth.
"Yes, I would like to", I answered calmly.
Though, inside my head I was freaking out.
"Then I will see you tomorrow. I'll text you when I get home though", Daichi adjusted his bag.
"Alright, see you tomorrow", I waved to Daichi as he walked away.
_
On my walk home, I decided to call Asahi and tell him the news.
"Just think what would've happened if I didn't stay back for extra credit or didn't lay down that stick", was the last thing Asahi said on the call before he hung up, giggling. I'm not sure how he was about to place a stick down on the track without being caught though.
I should've known that something was up. I'm glad he did those things when I really think about it.
What would've happened if Asahi didn't stay back to ask for extra credit or didn't lay the stick on the track?
robert pattinson once again slayed when he said he reads scripts cozily imagining himself as a moviegoer and looks forward to watching it more than acting in it and then he giggled i love him

I can't believe him. It's like he knew I'd come out to Daichi. It's like he knew Daichi would come out to me as well. It's like this was just one of his plans, pushing me forward to finally confessing to Daichi.
"I suppose that's a valid reason. Now we should hurry before we are late to 2nd period", Daichi interrupted my thoughts.
Daichi, Asahi and I took off through the halls, desperate to not be late.
Spoiler alert, we were late.
_
'Finally' I thought to myself, 'It's finally time for lunch'.
I stepped into the cafeteria, immediately greeted by Asahi.
Asahi and I quickly made our way through the line and got our food. We briskly walked over to the table Daichi was at. We always sit together.
Daichi always brings his own lunch, so he saves the table for us.
"Wait.. you're not wrong. Maybe it actually tastes good today", I quickly picked up my fork.
I'm extremely hungry, so I hope the food tastes good.
I picked up some of the food with my fork. I brought the fork up to my face and I took a bit. I immediately scrunched up my nose, earning a laugh from Asahi and Daichi.
"Yeah.. not good", I put down my fork and took a sip from my water bottle.
"Thanks for trying it before me. Now I don't have to suffer", Asahi moved his tray slightly forward.
I gave Asahi a glare, "you asshat."
A coughing noise came from Daichi, causing me to look up at him.
Daichi had choked on his water and spat it out. Even better, it had landed on Asahi.
"That's what you get", I bursted out laughing.
"Shut it", Asahi shook his hand, causing some water droplets to land on me.
"Bleh", I shook my head.
"Haha, don't laugh at me", Asahi crossed his arms.
I shot him a glare before looking at Daichi. I realized I don't know if we have after school practice today or not. As vice captain, I need to figure out the schedule.
"Do we have after school practice today?", I kind of hope we do.
It will give me more time with Daichi.
"Mhm we do, and we also have after school practice tomorrow. I'll print the schedule for you", Daichi smiled.
Daichi took out a pen and wrote something down on a sticky note. I think it was to remember to print me a copy of the schedule.
'Cute'
I gave my wrist a slight pinch. I cannot allow myself to think these things. Daichi is just my best friend. My best friend who I fell in love with..
My thoughts were interrupted by Daichi shaking my shoulder.
"Hm?", I looked up at Daichi, confused.
"You zoned out for so long it's time to go to our last class of the day", I could tell Daichi held back a laugh as I jumped out of my seat, picking up my bag.
Luckily, I had some time to spear, and Daichi walked me to class. I hope he couldn't hear how loud my heart was beating. It felt as if my heart was going to pound out of my chest.
_
I let out a sigh of relief as I walked into the club room. Finally classes were over.
"Sugaa!", Noya ran over to me.
"Haha, hey Noya", I patted his head.
Noya stepped away, so I can have room to change.
I laid my bag down as I took out some suitable clothes to practice in. I changed into the clothes rather quickly.
Once I finished changing, Noya and Tanaka grabbed each of my arms and dragged me to the gym.
Of course, I didn't stop them from doing so. I don't even mind them dragging me. It doesn't even hurt when they do so.
"Since Kageyama will be setting to Hinata for warm ups, me and Tanaka were wondering if you could set to us?"
"Oh of course, I don't mind", I'm glad they wanted me to set to them.
It makes me feel included. I know that's kind of dumb to say, but it's just reassuring to me. It makes me feel wanted/needed in a sense. It sounds so dumb to think.
Noya sprinted off but quickly came back, he now had a volleyball in his hands.
"Ready?", Noya tossed me Ball.
"Of course", I set the ball to Tanaka from where I was standing.
I didn't feel like stepping on the court right now. So, we formed a mini circle, well it was more of a triangle.
I mean it's a good way to warm up for practice. It's something simple but affective.
_
Coach Ukai blew his whistle, so we all gathered around him, sitting in a circle. He told us about upcoming games, the closest one being in a week.
"Now for practice", Ukai sighed, "we are doing a bonding game. You will have a partner, and one of y'all's wrists and ankles will be tied together. Y'all will have to run two laps on the track. I decided to be nice and allow y'all to pick your partner."
Ukai gestured for us to get up and pick a partner.
I was going to partner up with Asahi, but when I finally spotted him, he was with Noya.
Daichi walked over to me, "want to be my partner, Suga?"
I'm so glad he asked me. I would've never had to courage to ask him myself.
"Sure", I gave Daichi a smile.
_
We were all lined up on the track, coach Ukai finished tying our wrists and ankles together.
This wasn't necessarily a race, Ukai said it's more of a bonding experience.
I mean I'm not really complaining, Daichi is my partner. I get to be close to him..
I hope I don't mess this up for him.
"Ready?", Ukai asked us.
He was standing on the side of the track, that way he wasn't in our ways.
"Yes, coach", we all answered in unison.
"Alright, then begin", Ukai blew his whistle.
Some started running, while others started off walking. They needed to adjust to the change.
After me and Daichi adjusted to the change, we picked up our pace. We weren't really running, it was more of a jog.
It was surprisingly easy to keep up with Daichi. I honestly thought it would've been more complicated.
_
We were just about to finish our second lap. I say almost because a stick came out of nowhere and was in my path. I somehow didn't see it, which led me to tripping over it.
I feel so dumb, how could I have not seen a stick. Maybe because it's dark out. Still.
I kept blaming myself, in my thoughts, as my body fell closer to the ground.
My thoughts were stopped when I didn't feel myself come in contact with the ground.
I opened my eyes, which I don't remember ever closing them.
I seen Daichi holding me up. He somehow managed to untie our wrists and catch me before I hit the ground. Daichi pulled me up, helping me stand back up straight.
"Are you alright?", Daichi asked when I was finally standing back up straight.
"Yeah, I am, thank you", Daichi had let me go.
I sort of miss the feeling.
_
Daichi and I have to sit out for the other bonding challenges, due to being disqualified. Some of our teammates were sitting out because they failed.
'Hm.. so this is something competitive', I thought as me and Daichi sat down beside Narita.
Narita is quiet, he keeps to himself. He usually just talks and practices with Ennoshita and Kinoshita. They are like a trio.
I feel like it was my fault me and Daichi got disqualified. I mean I was the one that tripped.
"I'm sorry for getting us disqualified", I looked over at Daichi.
He looked right back at me, "no, you're all good. It wasn't your fault that we tripped. I was the one that untied our wrists. It's not really any of our faults"
I gave Daichi a soft smile and a nod. I still felt a Little guilty, but I'll eventually get over it.
I think I'm ready to tell Daichi. I know i didn't really drop any hints, and I don't know for sure that he likes me back. But, Daichis just genuinely a good person, so even if he doesn't feel the same, he wouldn't treat me any differently.
I can't him right here though, there are others around us. I will do it after practice.
"Hey, Daichi. I have a question", I spoke up.
"Hm, what is it?", Daichi had raised his eyebrow slightly.
"Can you wait by the school gates after practice? I have something I need to tell you", I bit the inside of my cheek slightly, waiting for his response.
"Sure I can", Daichis face rested, and he gave me a small smile.
I nodded in response before turning my head to the track. I watched the others compete in more mini challenges.
_
I took a deep breath as I approached the gate. Daichi was already there, waiting for me.
'Here goes nothing..'
"Hi", Daichi greeted me as I stepped in front of him.
"I'm just going to be blunt about it, no beating around the bush. I like you and not as a friend. I have for a while not, but if you don't return these feelings, it's perfectly fine..", I spoke kind of fast.
"Suga.. I like you too. I've kind of been waiting for you to say something", I'm surprised Daichi had even heard what I had said.
"Soo..", I'm so awkward.
"So, would you like to be my boyfriend", I felt my face heat up when those words left Daichis mouth.
"Yes, I would like to", I answered calmly.
Though, inside my head I was freaking out.
"Then I will see you tomorrow. I'll text you when I get home though", Daichi adjusted his bag.
"Alright, see you tomorrow", I waved to Daichi as he walked away.
_
On my walk home, I decided to call Asahi and tell him the news.
"Just think what would've happened if I didn't stay back for extra credit or didn't lay down that stick", was the last thing Asahi said on the call before he hung up, giggling. I'm not sure how he was about to place a stick down on the track without being caught though.
I should've known that something was up. I'm glad he did those things when I really think about it.
What would've happened if Asahi didn't stay back to ask for extra credit or didn't lay the stick on the track?
Tsukishima Kei was definitely what people would call a rage baiter, and Kageyama Tobio is what people would call the rage baited. Since they first met, Tsukishima found joy in pushing Kageyama's buttons.
Due to Sugawara's convincing, the Karasuno Volleyball team had a team group chat. Thus leading to the salty blond and short tempered ravenette having the others number. And, after a much needed amount of study sessions, the two began to text frequently. Despite the random bickering and insults, they entered what many call a ‘talking stage’. Surprising both of their friends, Yamaguchi Tadashi and Hinata Shoyo.
It wasn’t too serious at first, before they told their best friend. But, the random texts, long calls and FaceTimes, the connection grew. Though they have been talking for a good bit now, they aren’t together. They discussed it, but Tsukishima said he needed time. Kageyama understood that, of course. And, if you really like someone, you’ll wait. So, Tobio had no problem with waiting.
That is until it had been a year of talking, making them second years at Karasuno. Kageyama began to grow impatient, but he didn’t want to force Tsukishima into a relationship. So he waited.
The conversation began how it usually did. Both were at their own homes, in their own beds. Kageyama laid on his stomach, propping himself up with his elbows. Phone in both hands. Until Tobio's impatientions began showing.
‘do yk how much more time you need?’ Kageyamas text read.
‘I don’t know. I just need time.’ Tsukishima's chat bubble read on the screen.
Kageyama scoffed to himself. How much longer does Tsukishima expect him to wait?
‘yh, but it’s not fair that i js have to wait’ Tobio sighed as he pressed send.
‘Then don’t. I don’t care.’ Kageyama's brows furrowed as he read the text.
His heart raced and thudded quickly against his chest with rage as he typed a response.
‘ok. then im done waiting. i dont care anymore.’ After pressing send, Kageyama powered his phone off and tossed his phone somewhere in his room.
Yet, after powering on his phone, in the morning, he saw the usual texts of apologies and requesting for more time before putting labels. And, like always, Kageyama gave in and agreed.
No labels, but their knees purposely touch when sitting side by side. No labels, but they hold pinkies as Tsukishima walks Kageyama home. No labels, but Kageyama has finally started to pass his classes. No labels, but their lips and faces fit together like pieces of a puzzle. No. Labels.
This continued into their third year at Karasuno. Kageyama accidentally stood too close to Tsukishima during practice. Causing their teams to exchange looks and ask questions. Tobio didn’t care, but Kei did. Tsukishima stepped away from Kageyama and scoffed at the others. Kageyama understood.
Lying in their beds, Kageyama and Tsukishima were on call. Everything was going great, per usual.
Until the gym incident came up.
“I think I could really use a break,” Tsukishima's voice caused a frown on the ravenettes face.
He was sick and tired of waiting. And for being expecting to wait.
The sadness turned into anger as he replied, “that’s cool but don’t think I’ll just wait around for you to make up your fucking mind.”
Tsukishima spat out before thinking, “trust me, that’s more than fine.”
Without skipping a beat, Kageyama hung up. His jaw clinched as he placed his phone on the bedside table.
In the morning, the cycle repeated. Apologies, begging, and, of course, Kageyama giving in.
Another year and six months passed of this cycle.
Reading another message about still needing time, Kageyama couldn’t stop himself.
He texted ‘3 yrs, 6 months, and a couple of days, yet we never become something more. it js feels like we lost our sense of direction.’
‘I swear we’re the exception. I just need some time, Kageyama’ Kageyama instantly got pissed after reading Tsukishima's text.
Like always, Kageyama woke up to the same thing. And, of course, he gave in yet again.
He is just wasting his time, bending over backwards for someone who was never his. The cycle continues to spin in circles as Kageyama slowly loses his mind.
i might get into writing fanfics, any tips on how to not mischaracterize?
you have to know the character you’re writing about, because each character is different with their own personality and characterization. but listen, even if someone mischaracterizes a character, whether or not it’s on purpose, that is fine. the point of fanfics is that the character you write about becomes your own version of that character. canon is only a suggestion. not a rule. how much of canon you’ll follow, if any, is entirely up to you. just have fun and write whatever you want, however you want.
i am in desperate need of motivation to finish my writings😭. and a drabble on here. the main one i’m focused on right now is the ohshc angst one. i want to complete it, but i struggle to just add a sentence here and there.
strsvmp - a little drabble since i’ve been procrastinating on finishing my ohshc angst fic…

Beast Boy and Raven had what people called a ‘situationship’. They did all the things a typical couple would without the labels. And in private. The texts, the Snapchatting, the knees brushing, the laying together, the kissing. All in private and no labels.
It’s not like Beast Boy doesn’t want labels. Or what’s to be a secret. He wants to be Ravens, and he wants Raven to be his. Beast Boy wants it to be known. But, he isn’t going to pressure Raven into anything.
—🦖🔮
The Titans lounged in the living room, the credits of their movie rolling in the background. Beast Boy was sprawled out on the couch, lazily stretching his arms. His gaze flicked toward Raven, his so-called situationship. Catching her eye, he sent her a silent question—an unspoken invitation to slip away from the group and retreat to her room, just the two of them.
Raven noticed the look and gave a small, almost unnoticeable, nod. She faked a yawn, “I think I’m going to call it a night. Maybe read a bit before going to sleep.” Raven rose from the couch, standing on her feet. After the exchange of goodbyes, Raven briskly made her way to her room as she levitated just above the floor.
Beast Boy tapped a finger against his thigh, counting out enough time since Raven left. Feeling like enough time had passed, he too said his goodnights and exited the living room. The other Titans continued on doing their own things. Star was messing with Silky, Robin was scrolling on his phone, and Cy had went to the garage to tinker with the Titans car.
Just about every night went like that for the two. Well every day - finding excuses to sneak away and just enjoy the other’s company.
chat, idk if i should continue, lmk. i lwk need to work on my angst fic
