Daichi accidentally drinks diet soda and can't stop burping. His friends try to keep a straight face/make fun of him/try to help him feel better/die of secondhand embarrassment/think he's totally talented/free space I'm just here for the captains. And you. So very here for you.
A/N: Hey guys I’m the new admin, Cosmo! This is my first prompt response so I hope you all like it!
Thinking back on it, maybe it wasn’t the best idea to drink diet soda before practice, or just soda in general really. However, Daichi decided to be irresponsible for the first time in god knows how long. So instead of packing something practical and healthy with his lunch he decided to throw in a soda to treat himself. The problem with that is that his mom had been going on a “health kick” and refused to buy regular ones until she dropped a few pounds.
So here he was at practice, trying to lead the team through some stretches while horribly attempting to keep the gas bubbles in his throat down.
“Okay after this next set of lunges we can- we can get into some drills.”
“Daichi,” Suga leaned over and whispered. “Are you sure you’re feeling alright? There’s no shame in sitting out for a bit.”
“I’m fine! I just need to- aurrp -Sorry- I just need to focus on practice.”
“I see… You’re burpy. Well you might as well let it out Sawamura because the more you keep it in the more uncomfortable you’re going to be.”
Daichi’s cheeks began to get red with embarrassment, this really wasn’t the time or place for Suga to be outwardly talking about this. “I’ll be fine.”
The grey haired man gave a smirk and shrugged. “If you say so captain.”
Without any warning Suga slapped a hand across Daichi’s back causing the latter to let out a massive burp.
The team went quiet as all heads turned towards him.
“Woah! Way to go Daichi!” Noya exclaimed, running over to him. “You should join Ryuu and myself for a burping contest sometime. Things can get pretty intense, but if you know how to properly store a belch in the back of your-”
“Noya!” Daichi caught himself mid yell and sighed. “Go back to your aurrrp stretches, please.”
“You know if you’re feeling gassy you could always sit out for a while. Uh, at least until it calms down a bit.” Ennoshita offered.
“Oh! Oh! Or somebody could pat your back until the gas bubbles come out! That’s what my mom did when my sister was a baby!” Hinata began bouncing up and down, already getting excited about the idea.
“Well I’m not a baby Hinata and I don’t need to be… burped.” Daichi kept his gaze down towards the floor when he said that last part.
“Besides, the only one small enough to be an infant here is you.” Tsukki snickered.
Asahi walked over towards the small group that was beginning to form. His face looked even redder the Daichi’s. “I think the, uh, the team might be right. Maybe you should try getting a drink of water and- and maybe letting your stomach settle for a bit…”
“All of you! I am fine, it’s just from a soda I had a lunch and honestly it’s none of your business. So why don’t you all get in lines and we can start some spiking and receiving-”
A massive belch came from the captains mouth, it startled everyone, hell it even startled himself a bit.
The sound echoed off of the gym walls and caused the room to go quiet again.
Wincing a little bit, Daichi softly addressed the team. “Alright guys… Let’s take five and then we can do some drills…”
The team nodded wordlessly and wandered off leaving Daichi and Suga left in the middle of the gym.
Suga quickly pulled Daichi into a hug, not giving him time to fight against it. They stayed like that for a few seconds before Suga pounded on his back one last time, sending out yet another abrupt and loud burp.
”aurrrpp!”
“Awww Hinata’s right. It is just like burping a baby.”
With that being said Suga gave one last grin and walked over towards the water bottles, leaving a flustered Daichi just standing there.
