Kenma and Kuroo - ❝I'll Stand Up with You❞

Ever since Kenma Kozume was young, he has not had the best of luck in making friends. It is not like he has a problem with people in general, but he also does not mind being by himself either. He tells himself that it does not bother him. He does not care if he is different or is interested in other hobbies from other people.

But, no matter how many times Kenma says that he is just fine with being by himself, Tetsuro Kuroo always seems to be close by.

Kenma has such a close bond with Kuroo that he would often shorten his name to “Kuro” instead.

Of course, Kuroo does not mind this one bit since it was Kenma who gave him his name.

Kuroo lives in Kenma’s neighborhood, and since he is the only one who is close to his age, Kuroo always goes over to Kenma’s place and plays with him. He enjoys being with Kenma. Everything seems so peaceful and tranquil with him, and just being around him can make Kuroo’s problems go away for just a little while, but even Kuroo knows that he has to be the one to convince Kenma to try new things every once in a while. He is not going to let his closest childhood friend grow up and become a hermit who just plays video games all day. It is a beautiful world out there with a lot of interesting and colorful activities to try out and do, so Kuroo makes it his mission to try to make Kenma come out of his shell a bit more.

Despite constantly complaining about every single idea that Kuro always manages to come up with when it comes to even taking one step outside his room, Kenma attempts to try because he trusts Kuro. If Kuro is around, then he should at least be obligated to try. Whatever they are doing, it should not feel like it is the worst thing in the world.

…

Or at least, that is what Kenma keeps telling himself.

…

Well, the sooner they do the thing that Kuro wants them to do, the sooner Kenma can go back to his video games.

- - -

Everything seems to be better for him whenever he is with his tall friend, and for someone with Kuro’s height, Kenma knew about his fascination with volleyball. So of course, it did not take any time for Kuroo to eventually ask his gamer boy to come play volleyball with him. Kenma figured it would not be so bad to play on the same team with Kuro.

- - -

Kenma does not often share the same passion for volleyball compared to his companion, especially when his difference in age becomes part of the factor of the added problems he currently has with the sport. Sometimes, Kenma wishes that he was born sooner or that he would be able to skip a grade (because he knew Kuro is way too smart for his own good to flunk and be held back a school year) just so he could get Kuro to understand what he is going through. But even Kenma knows that he does not have to say anything to let Kuro know that he has a lot of problems running through his mind right now. After all, they grew up with each other after so many years. They knew each other’s quirks, interests, and frustrations. And they also know how to make each other feel better whenever they are together.

- - -

Despite being apart from each other by one grade year, Kuroo has always been looking out for Kenma, especially during his first year of high school. There is a lot of pressure being involved with being the newbie student of a new school, especially for someone with Kenma’s lonesome personality. Kuroo was somehow able to convince Kenma to join the volleyball club when he got to high school, saying phrases like, “It’s our last years together” and “C’mon, you’ll have a great time, especially with me around.”

Kenma despises Kuro of saying such sentimental words like these. It is not like Kuro is planning to leave anytime soon, and they always hang out and practically do everything together. Even if Kenma is engrossed deeply into a new video game he had just got, Kuroo has a way of making his presence known to the gamer.

Despite the awkwardness of meeting new people on a team again, Kenma agrees to it because Kuro is there. He does not want to disappoint his closest bud, especially since Kuro has done a lot for him, even during those times when he was not feeling all too well to where no amount of video gaming was not going to make him feel like himself. Age should not have been a factor when it comes to volleyball, or any club activity in general, but somehow, according to Kenma, it really is.

- - -

Kenma has been thinking a lot lately. He wants to quit, but he has trouble trying to tell that to Kuro. He does not want to let his best player two down, but he cannot keep pretending that he wants to endure through all of this. It pains him to his very core, and he feels even more isolated than what he has been going through before.

As he continues to sit on the stairs and contemplate how Kuro would take his news, Kuroo already knows all about this. He is not blind or oblivious to the situation after all. He can see how Kenma is struggling during practice, how much he despises being treated this way from the older teammates, and how much it stresses him to balance this extracurricular activity with school and his time for his video games.

But he also knows that Kenma is not a quitter and that he hates to lose.

So, instead of accepting Kenma’s reasons for feeling this way, Kuroo is going to convince his compadre that he is never going to let him fall. He has to keep going. Even if it will take him a while to get into the rhythm of his new daily life, Kuroo is going to make sure that Kenma can overcome anything and that he will always make sure that Kenma knows that Kuroo will always be around.

- - -

Kenma is grateful for Kuro for pushing him to go past his negative thoughts and be better at his craft. Sure, he becomes the official setter for Nekoma his second year, which he always says that it is not a big deal, but it really is. Kenma has Kuro to thank for that. He glances at Kuro from across the room and gives him a little smile. Even at such a young age, Kuro always takes care of him and is quite observant. In sickness and in health, they both are so good for each other.

It is so rare to catch Kenma smiling over something that is not a video game, but Kuroo notices and cannot help himself but to beam back at the setter. Kuroo smiles a lot, but this is big of Kenma to do. Kuroo knows that Kenma has a nice smile and wishes he would often do this from time to time, but to know that Kenma even relies on him even when facing a hard level on a video game, that is good enough to let the middle blocker know that he is still important to the setter. And he is glad that no one moved away ever since they had met and that they can both take the same train ride together back home every day after school and practice.

Kuroo is a great middle blocker, but he is also protective of this team, especially over Kenma. It really helps that Kuroo is quite tall and intimidating. He does not let Kenma be bad-mouthed around by other players and lets everyone know that Kenma has a reputation of being Nekoma’s brain, heart, and soul. This team functions when Kenma is around, and Kuroo is certainly not going to let his favorite guy down.

Even though while growing up Kenma was only playing volleyball for Kuro, he cannot help but also enjoy what he has gone through with this sport. From the time he could barely catch a ball with his hands and always let it hit his face and when he first joined a team to where he is now, standing with a solid team with very uplifting chances that they could possibly win multiple games and advance to higher levels, the setter looks forward to these games. It is even better to know that even if this is their last year of playing volleyball together, he is happy to be able to do this with Kuro, especially knowing that this is his last year for him. The setter is even able to talk to other people whether they are on the same team or opposing teams because of the middle blocker, and for that, Kenma will always be grateful.

They might not be able to admit it right now, but they really do love being with each other. They care so much and deeply know and understand one another. From the moment they met, they instantly clicked, and it did not even matter what kind of issues they were dealing with on their own. They were able to work it out and encourage each other one way or another. They both grew up sharing the same interests and they both know that they are so good together. Maybe one day, when the timing is right, they might confess their own feelings, but for now, they will stand up with each other forever.

kuroken headcanons! <3

fluff, kenma can't sleep, !nsfw!

- kenma can't sleep most nights.

- sometimes it's because of anxiety, and those nights, he wakes kuroo up

- even though kuroo likes having a clean sleep schedule, he doesn't mind it, because he knows kenma needs him

- these nights, kenma taps on kuroo's shoulder until the latter wakes up and looks at him worriedly

- "what's wrong?"

- "i can't sleep" kenma mumbles, and kuroo doesn't need more answers. he opens up his arms for kenma to come into them

- cuddles help kenma a lot and soon enough kuroo's kisses in his forehead and kuroo's hands rubbing his back and kuroo's arms wrapping tightly around him help him to relax enough to fall asleep.

- some other nights, kenma can't sleep because he's not tired. he's used to staying up all night, he's been used to it for years. so sometimes, imsomnia takes over and he has too much energy (that is not a lot, is kenma we're talking about)

- those nights, he wakes up kuroo with kisses, or annoying him.

- those nights, kuroo doesn't wake up worried.

- he looks over at kenma and sighs

- "what?"

- "you know what. i can't sleep. play with me."

- depending on the night, kuroo will choose what 'play with me' means. kenma is totally fine with that, he knows what goes through his boyfriend's mind when he says those words.

- so, some nights, kuroo just chooses to play videogames with kenma until they both fall asleep.

- but most nights, he comes up with a best way of wasting kenma's energy

- "are you sure you're asking me to play with you, kitten?" he says with a smirk, and kenma blushes but nods. "okay, then."

- some nights is make-out sessions

- some nights is just touching kenma's most sensitive spots and teasing him, until he comes and collapses into kuroo

- some nights, it's kuroo's turn to get satisfied and makes kenma get on his knees to suck him off

- and some other nights is kuroo fucking kenma until they're both so tired after they come they just collapse into each other and fall asleep instantly

(extra!)

- kenma's favorite cuddling position is being little spoon because he feels safe and protected and helps the anxiety go away

- kuroo's favorite cuddling position is kenma sleeping on his chest because he feels like a human-sized kitten and it's just *so cute* for him

[hey-hey-heyy]

kenma: see you in hell.

kuroo: is that you asking me on a date?

kuroo: because if so, yes.
