summary: kuroo has a very special dare for you...
"y/n! truth or dare?" kuroo yelled, pointing his finger at you.
you didn't hesitate for a moment. "dare."
the circled ooooo-ed as kuroo thought really hard about what he wanted your dare to be.
after around a minute had passed, he looked up at you with a devious smirk that sent shivers down your spine.
"i dare you..." he started, "to kiss your crush on the cheek."
the nekoma volleyball team gasped and began to murmur among themselves.
whilst the team was trying to figure out who the mystery guy could possibly be, you were just sitting there, sending a nasty death glare to kuroo while he just grinned at you like a cheshire cat.
"what if my crush isn't here?" you challenged.
louder oooo's filled the room as they tried to guess who it could be, not bothering trying to be quiet about it now.
"it's probably kai, the lucky bastard!"
"no, no, it's definitely me!"
"who the hell is it?! i'll fight him!"
"hey kenma," yamamoto called out to the fake blonde sitting outside the circle on his game boy, "who do you think it is?"
he blinked. "think what is?"
"you little- haven't you been listening? y/n's crush. he's in the room." he tsked, putting extra enunciation on the words "y/n's crush."
your cheeks turned mad red and you instantly tried to defend yourself. "he might not be!"
"kuroo, you little-!" *SMACK*
"ow! that huuuurt y/n-chan!"
kenma turned his attention back to his game as you held your breath. "dunno. it doesn't really affect me."
yamamoto sighed. "how kenma of you. this is a big deal!"
but it would affect him. because if you went on with the dare, his cheek would be the one meeting your lips. but if he didn't care, that definitely meant that he didn't reciprocate. then again, kenma remained indifferent about a majority of topics, even ones he was interested in, so just maybe? but it was unlikely, and you really didn't want to ruin your friendship with him when it only started a year ago.
"moving on," kuroo interrupted, wanting to get on with it, "our precious manager-chan here has to complete the dare."
"i'd kick you in the balls if i wasn't so nice." you snarled.
he just grinned in response.
you sighed, knowing that there really wasn't away out of this.
"ok, everyone has to close their eyes."
"everyone has to close their eyes for my pride and privacy. close your eyes, guys. if you open them, you'll be betraying my trust and i would hate you."
everyone gasped. no one wanted that. so, they all complied with your wishes, including kenma, even though he wasn't really playing.
when all the eyes were closed, you tiptoed over to kuroo to whisper a "i really hate you for this. i trusted you with that info, man. now, thanks to you, my friendship with him might be ruined forever. i'm seriously mad at you, kuroo."
you meant it. you were actually really scared for what might happen with kenma. you confided in kuroo so that he could find out what kenma thought of you for you with the condition that he not tell a soul, but he refused to tell you anything when you asked about what kenma said about you, so it ended up being a worthless exchange.
you then tiptoed around the circle, stomping your feet, stopping, and making kissy noises occasionally to try to ensure that they didn't know who it was.
finally, you made a loud smooch in the air right above kenma, and then, heart pounding out of your chest, you leaned down and gave him a gentle peck to the cheek.
you took a second to analyze his reaction, and you noticed an immediate change in the color of his ears. he quickly pulled his hood over them to cover it up, and slowly, his pretty eyes fluttered open. he gave you a small, shy smile before averting his gaze, a flustered look on his face.
that reaction was...good, right?
you walked around the circle once more for good measure, standing extra long in certain spots to ensure that the team wouldn't know.
finally, you returned to your spot in the circle.
the team's eyes shot open and they quickly started trying to figure out who the lucky boy was.
"kai, be honest. was it you?"
"i can't believe it wasn't me..."
"lev, the only certainty we had about who it was was that it wasn't you."
while everyone was trying to figure it out, you looked up at kenma, who was already staring at you. you quickly averted your gaze before returning back to him.
he gave you a smile that released a whole butterfly farm in your stomach and gently formed a phone signal with his hand before mouthing, "call me."
i guess you wouldn't be too mad at kuroo.
