“I think I’m in love with you and I’m terrified.” - DaiTana

It was not a clean fight. Ryuunosuke knew as soon as the first exchange of blows broke off into circling and sizing-up that there was no way he was walking away without at least a few bruises. He would be lucky if a few bruises were all he would be walking away with.

He would be lucky to walk away at all, really.

A reflection from the streetlight at the end of the alley was all that saved him from finding himself on the end of a switchblade. But it was also his salvation; disarming and turning someone’s weapon on them was something Ryuunosuke was very good at. He ended the fight and sent the thugs who’d attacked him running. He kept the switchblade.

Daichi was already home when he arrived, but Kuroo’s shoes were missing. Ryuunosuke sighed and stepped into the living room.

“I’m home,” he called. Daichi appeared from the kitchen with a smile on his face.

“Welcome ho- what the hell happened?” The smile dropped like it had never existed and Ryuunosuke chuckled without humor.

“Same as always,” he said, waving a hand. “Someone recognized my face and decided to take out their shit with my dad on me.”

“Ryuu, I-”

“It’s okay, Dai,” Ryuunosuke interrupted. “I’m just a little scuffed up.” Daichi narrowed his eyes as though he didn’t quite believe Ryuunosuke, which was probably fair. He sat on the couch, and Ryuunosuke sighed and sat across from him, dropping his feet into Daichi’s lap. “I’m fine,” he insisted.

“Maybe we should leave,” Daichi said softly.

“Whatdya mean?”

“Maybe we should move,” Daichi explained. “Go somewhere where your dad’s just a name in a news story, where people might not make the connection between you two and try to get revenge.”

Ryuunosuke watched Daichi through slitted, exhausted eyes. There was a tired slump to Daichi’s shoulders, one that Ryuunosuke knew he had put there. He bit back a sigh.

“I’ll start packing my things in the morning,” he said. “I can be out of your hair in a week.”

“Out of my- Ryuu, what are you talking about?”

“What you just said,” Ryuunosuke answered. “I’ll get out of your life so you don’t end up caught up in this.”

“That is not what I just said.” Daichi’s voice was angry. Ryuunosuke sat up and looked at him, shocked by the ferocity in his gaze. “You are not going anywhere without me.

“But I-” Ryuunosuke shook his head. “Daichi, you and I both know you’re only in danger as long as I’m around you.”

“I don’t care!” Daichi roared. “I get it! I know your dad’s dangerous and the people who hate him are more dangerous, and I don’t care! I’m not leaving you, okay?”

“Why the hell not?” Ryuunosuke yelled back.

“Because I love you!” Daichi shouted. “I think I’m in love with you, and I’m terrified, and I don’t fucking care!”

“’Bout fucking time,” Kuroo said, shutting the front door. “So where’re we moving?”

“Please refrain from shooting her, we need her for later.” - KuroDaiTana part two pretty pretty please with cherry on top? I can bat my big brown eyes if it helps?

Part one

TanakaSaeko’sdomain was a sprawling hotspring resort that never seemed to haveguests walking in, only ever out, and she ruled it with an iron fist.The Kuroo siblings led the way up its secluded path in silence, theirwards following along with wide eyes and tight grips on theirluggage. When they reached the front porch a large man in a blacksuit pulled out a gun and aimed it at Kiti.

“You’vebrought outsiders, Black Cat,” he said, and cocked the gun.Tetsurou took a measured step away as the door opened.

“Pleaserefrain from shooting her,” drawled Saeko, resplendent in her tanktop and grungy jeans. “We need her for later.” She exchanged agrin with Tetsurou just as Tanaka threw his bag at Tetsurou’s head.

“You’veknown where my sister was this whole time and you nevertold me?”he shouted. Tetsurou held his hands up defensively.

“I’veknown where mysister was,”he said. “I wasn’t sure if yours would be here or not, but weneeded a place to disappear and this was our best shot.” Daichistepped forward and bowed.

“It’sbeen a long time, Nee-san,” he said, and Tetsurou could hear himsmiling. Saeko smiled down at him and opened her arms, and bothTanaka and Daichi followed her inside. Tetsurou hung back.

“Aren’tyou going with them?” Kiti asked. Tetsurou shook his head.

“I’lllet them have their reunion,” he said. “’Sides, I wanted totalk to you. Is there somewhere…?”

“Followme.” Kiti smiled and took his hand, dragging him through the resortto one of the grand buildings in the back. She led him to a sittingroom and closed the door and the windows. “What’s up, littlebrother?” she asked seriously. Tetsurou sighed and sat down at thelow table in the center of the room.

“Weneed to disappear,” he said.

“Yousaid that.”

“Weneed to disappear from Tanaka-sama.” Kiti blinked at him.

“That’seasier said than done, Tetsu,” she murmured.

“Youmanaged it,” Tetsurou pointed out.

“Itwon’t work for you the way it did for me,” she said. “I’monly safe as long as Saeko isn’t drawing his attention. If Ryuu-kundisappears, then Tanaka-sama will look for him, and the first placehe’ll look is here.”

“Ithought no one knew about this place,” Tetsurou said.

“Tanaka-samaknows everything,” Kiti said sadly. “If you want this to work,then the trick is going to be to become no one at all. Which means noone, absolutely no one, can know where you are. You can’t contactanyone once you go, especially us.”

“Nee-san,I-”

“I’msorry, Tetsu,” she said. “I’m afraid the longest we can giveyou is the night. But if you’re still here in the morning, we’regoing to have to tell him. It’s not safe here.”

“Iunderstand,” Tetsurou murmured. He stood and bowed to his sister,then left to find the other two.
