Suga is clearly overworked, even though he doesn’t want to admit it. Luckily his boyfriend is more than ready to drag him out of his studies and chores and put a big smile on his face
NOTE: Waaaaahhh anon!!! When I got online this morning and saw your request AND your sweet words I was like asjhsdkahkj... thank you from the bottom of my heart <3 Anyway, this ship was in my “to-write list” so you kind of read my mind :) I hope I managed to do justice to this ship (which I L-O-V-E) and that you enjoy my fic.

DISCLAIMER: This is a tickle fic, if it’s not to your taste I don’t suggest you read it
Being the “mom” of a numerous group of people was hard, being the mom of Karasuno Volleyball Club was definitely draining. Don’t get me wrong, everyone was nice and adorable in his own unique way, but it’s well-known that they were gremlins.
Suga didn’t want to think like that, but he couldn’t help it. He had his own duties towards the club as vice-captain, but on the other hand he also had to do his chores at home and study for the imminent graduation. Not to mention the anxiety brought by the constant feeling of not being able to do so many things together and being mediocre at every single one of them.
There’s no need to say that he was the only one seeing himself like that, the whole team loved him, also because without him Hinata and Kageyama would have begun fighting raccoons, Tsukki would have bullied Noya non-stop for his height and Noya would have “rolling-thundered” over him. Tanaka would have gotten his shirt off just because and Yamaguchi would have started wondering where his life had gotten that turn. The second years would have quit again and Daichi would have been yelling the whole time.
Speaking of Daichi, as the responsible captain and caring and attentive boyfriend he was, he was already pretty aware of Suga’s situation, which was why he decided to have a sleep-over with him during the weekend and take a free day from school on Monday (making him stay over on Sunday, too). However the grey-haired boy dared to refuse the offer, since ‘he had to study’ for a presentation due to Wednesday. The thing was, that he’d already handed in the project itself, so he had already done his researches, which could have been studied on Tuesday, too (since it was more like revising).
Daichi knew better than that; he was 100% sure that his lover needed a break from everything and he would take it, whether he liked it or not, which is why he was currently carrying a very not really angry boyfriend over his shoulder all the way to his place.
“Sawamura Daichi, put me down this instant!” ordered Suga with a mom-like tone, to which his partner only laughed and even made him bounce once or twice, always careful to not hurt him. The dark-haired guy had been enduring Suga’s punches on his back since the moment he had picked him up, but it didn’t matter. The mission was much more important.
When they finally reached the house, the captain opened the door and threw his boyfriend on the couch. Suga tried so hard to appear fuming, but the giggles that were pouring out of his mouth totally betrayed him. “Dai, for real, I gotta go home. The proj-” “The project is due to Wednesday and you’ve already handed it in. You’ll be fine... no, actually it’s gonna be worse if you do your presentation while you’re tired. I’ve seen many friends of mine fail because of that, even though they were totally prepared.” “Talk about reassuring...” the vice captain sounded so sarcastic that anyone would’ve exchanged him for Tsukishima.
“O-okay, let’s make a deal” Daichi understood immediately that it hadn’t been the smartest move talking about failures “I’ll lend you a hoodie, prepare a fuzzy blanket and put on a very noisy action movie. If you’re so tired that you manage to fall asleep, you’ll stay, if you don’t, I’ll recognize that you weren’t that exhausted and you’ll go home tomorrow and won’t skip Monday.”
“Deal” Suga was sure of himself, there was no way he couldn’t keep his focus on a movie... on the couch... wrapped up in a warm, cozy blanket... wearing a slightly big hoodie that smelled like his boyfriend... with said boyfriend cuddling him... Okay that was totally cheating!
To make it all even more difficult, Daichi had insisted for him to lay down on top of him, so that he could embrace him in the most warm and affectionate way. He even dared to slip a hand under his hoodie to trace shapes all over his back, dragging his fingers slowly up and down his spine. “Hehehehehehehe that tihihicklehes... stop...”
“Oh, does it now?” the black-haired buy asked already unable to hold back his grin. Deciding to go for the kill, he kept gently tickling his back in a way that felt both unbearably ticklish but also extremely good and relaxing. “Nohohohohoho don’t hehehehehe... ehehevihihil...” Suga’s chuckles began to sound sleepy, and that’s when the ‘evil’ boyfriend decided to make the ultimate ‘attack’. He stopped the tickles, leaving the hand to caress his back soothingly, while the other hand was gently massaging and scratching his scalp.
After not even a minute, light snores could be heard in the house. Daichi smiled fondly at the sight of a finally-relaxed Suga, not even caring about the small puddle of drool forming on his shirt.
He decided to keep that night relaxing, so he woke him up only when it was dinnertime, then they ate and fell asleep on the bed watching movies together.
(The next day)
Daichi found out that the idea of falling asleep hugging each other tight backfired, since he had a koala stuck on him and a very strong urge to use the bathroom. The more he tried to wriggle, the more Suga clung onto him. He tried to give him cuddles and head-scratches, but it only made him snuggle his face into the crook of his neck. It was actually cute seeing his boyfriend subconsciously looking for him and keeping him as close as possible... if only he didn’t need to use the bathroom!
In the end he managed to free himself from the claws of his sleeping lover, use the bathroom and get back into bed without waking him up. He couldn’t sleep anymore, so he opted for admiring the angel laying in front of him.
“Mmmhhh... good morning” yawned Suga, finally waking up. “Morning sleepyhead who was absolutely not tired but managed to sleep ‘till midday” Daichi provoked. “What? Oh my god, sorry! You’re kidding right? There’s no way I could have slept that long. Oh no, my wor-” “Your work is fine even if you don’t pay attention to it for a couple of days. Your boyfriend, on the other hand won’t be fine at all, so give me attention, or else.”
The vice captain was too sleepy to test Daichi’s patience, so he rolled right back into his arms and cuddled him more. They felt too lazy to cook something, so they ordered takeout for breakfast, or more like lunch given the hour. They passed a couple of hours watching movies, scrolling though their phones to check if there were any volleyball emergencies (like some people training during the weekend, when they were supposed to be resting) and talking a bit.
“So” the wing spiker interrupted the silence “how are you feeling now?” “Much more rested, maybe I actually needed it...” the grey-haired guy was completely sincere there, but he also felt daring, so he dared to add “even though I don’t understand why we couldn’t do this after my presen-” “OKAY THAT’S IT, COME HERE YOU!” now Daichi had officially reached his limit and chose to resort to drastic measures, which basically consisted in simple continous squeezes to his lover’s thighs.
“Hahahahhahahahahahaha nahaahahahahahahahah please! Ihihit tihihihcklehehes” Suga was already chuckling, despite his desperate attempt to hold back any kind of reaction. “Hahaha yehehes! I know it does, you asked for it, now be good and take it” the taller one was determined to take off Suga’s mind from the project. Seriously, what did it have that he lacked?
Getting even more worked up at the thought, the Daichi began going up, giving some firm squeezes and pokes to the vice captain’s hips, making him go into a new set of giggles. “Naahahahaheheheheh chahahahahngehehehe” the workaholic tried to request. “As you wish, sweetie” was all his partner said before going up to the sides and ribs, alternating between those two spots to never let him get used to the sensation. Scratches, light pinches, pokes, scribbles... you name it, he was doing it.
Feeling the need to give Suga a detailed lesson about what he did ‘wrong’, he decided to just touch his sides with only one finger on each one and then he started pressing down and wiggling with one of them to make the shorter guy move to the other side and basically begin tickle himself! Was that even legal?
“Daihihihihihi nahahahaht the teheheehahahahahsing likehehe thahahat” the silver-haired guy felt like he was going crazy with just two fingers tormenting him “mehehehahahahahniehehe stahahahap”
“Meanie?” uh oh. “You’re calling me meanie?” now he’d really done it. “Allow me to show you what ‘meanie’ means, my dear” the tickler taunted before darting up to his underarms, neck and ribs, carefully avoiding that spot just to keep him hanging.
On the other hand, Suga’s laughter became somewhat distressed, but he still wasn’t tapping out. “Nohohohohoho nononono nahahahaht theheheherehehehe ahahahahahaahahahah! Ahahahnywhehehere ehehehelsehe” “Ooohhh... so now you’re negotiating, huh? Well guess what, too late, I’ll go right there! Face your punishment!” Saying that, Daichi proceeded with a teasing, gentle and awfully ticklish to the setter’s collarbone, his death spot.
“HAHAHAHAHAHHHAH NAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA STAHAHAHAHAHP GOHOHOHO ANYWHEHEHEHREEH” the poor boy was literally begging, but his lover was unmovable. “Nah, I like it here, and do you know why? Because I can listen to your beautiful laughter while I kiss you all over” the captain was perfectly aware of the effect of his words, and he was actually ruthless, so much for the dad-like side.
Between the tickles and the smooches, which also tickled a bit, especially when they reached his neck and ears, the shorter boy felt his spirit literally crawl out of his skin, hoping to avoid the intense sensation “IHIHIHIIHI GIHIHIIVEHEHEHE GIHIHIHIHIVEHEHEHEH GIHIHIVEHEHEH STAHAHAHAP”
Hearing the surrender signal, Daichi immediately stopped the assault and admired how cute Suga looked. His hair was a mess from all the squirming, there were some happy tears in the corner of his eyes and his face was the most adorable shade of red. On top of that he was trying to pout, but his giggles made his attempt futile once more.
“Sawahamura Daichi, I swehear youhu never chan- *mph*” the captain wasn’t feeling like receiving a lecture from his lover, so he did the ultimate power move. He shut him up with a deep, loving, passionate kiss, one that was enough to make his heart go ‘whoosh’ and his face become beet red.
“You were saying? Sawamura Daichi, love of my life, you always know how to cheer me up and make me feel better, and I want you to hug the life out of me?” Suga was too flustered to reply, so his boyfriend took his silence as a yes and carried on with his operation ‘cheer up and relax’.
Needless to say, the mission was a success. They both spent a very lazy day (and the day after) at home, just enjoying each other’s company.
And guess what? Being productive didn’t even find a place in their list of priorities.
