Mediator
Summary: The boys are fighting, and you’re beginning to see Kageyama’s side of things
Pairing: Hinata x Reader
“Hinata-kun? Is something wrong?” It was a rather obvious question, what with how the carrot top blocker was sullenly resting his chin on the table in the library, but you still thought you would ask.
“Kageyama and I are fighting.” He muttered.
“Aren’t you always fighting?”
“It’s not the same!” Hinata shouted, flailing his arms. A resounding chorus of ‘sssshh!’ hissing at him. “He’s not fake mad like he usually is. He really mad this time.”
“I don’t think he’s ‘fake mad’ all the other times, Hinata-kun….”
“Trust me. I would know.” Hinata lifted his head to look up at you with bright, earnest eyes. “We’re teammates. I’d know when he’s really mad at me. And this time he’s really mad at me.”
“How can you be sure?” You were actually fascinated to know how he could tell between the ‘King’s’ normal sullen, grumpy attitude and his angry sullen, grumpy attitude.
“He won’t talk to me!” Another chorus of shushes.
“Ah yes. That would do it.”
“Usually when he’s fake mad, or a little mad, he yells at me and then we figure it out. This time he won’t even talk to me! How am I supposed to fix something if he won’t even talk to me?! If I don’t know what the problem is, we can’t resolve it!”
His impassioned remark did have a point. It was rather hard to resolve a problem if you didn’t even know what the problem was. Not that you aren’t sure Hinata has done something stupid, Kageyama isn’t helping anything by not talking to him about it.
“Maybe I can talk to Kageyama-kun for you?” You offer. “He’ll usually talk to me about things. And if I speak to him rationally, I’m sure he’d be willing to tell me what’s wrong.”
“Really?!” Another, louder, chorus of shushes hiss through the library. “Thank you [Y/N]! You’re the best!” Hinata whispered back.
It was too late though, as a stern looking librarian came over to your table and pointed you both towards the door. Three strikes and you were out it seemed.
“This might be one of the reasons Kageyama-kun is mad at you.”
“Don’t say that [Y/N]!”
