c: Husband! Wakatoshi comes home after a very late night of training and much more in-gym interviews than he’d like, only to find you cowered up in some corner of the house, eyes wet and tired, cradling a screaming baby in your arms.
The front door clicks open quietly, the still air of the night creeping into your heated home. Wakatoshi slips his volleyball shoes off at the entryway, eyebrows already narrowing in concern as his ears register the faint crying of his newborn echoing from a far room in the house.
He immediately drops his training bags, feet softly thudding across the floors with a rare sense of worried urgency. The two of you should have been long asleep by now, tucked up and safe in your warm covers, resting you tired bodies.
But you weren’t.
Instead you were sitting on your bedroom floor with your back to your shared bed, body hunched over and cradling a screaming little bundle. Both of your faces streaked with tears, looking completely and utterly drained. Wakatoshi guessed that you must’ve been here for hours, desperately pleading for your little one to close her eyes.
Your voice hitches, tired, helpless eyes looking up to find your husband. “She just won’t stop, I’ve t-tried everything.”
The reddened baby lets out a shrill cry, so high-pitched you're afraid it hurts.
Wakatoshi interrupts silently, sinking down to your height and rubbing a callused thumb against your cheek, smooshing tears into your skin. “It is okay. I am here now to help.” His hair is still damp with sweat - remnants from his late-night training that had him kept way past overtime. And his muscles are aching and sore - wanting no more than to take a hot shower and then cuddle up with his family in bed.
But he doesn’t, not yet. Because you're here, struggling. Doing your best for his family.
So instead he scoops the screaming baby from your arms, eyes softening at her red, spent face.
He stands up and sways, pressing your squirming child to his chest. It seems to settle her a little. Ever so slightly. “You should sleep, I can take care of her now.” Toshi moves to dip a hand under your armpit, gently helping you get up from off the floor.
You steady your exhausted body upwards, wiggling your arm out of his soft grip in protest. “No, no- but there's still dinner,” Your breaths come shaky and disoriented. “M’ almost done, it just needs like - ten more minutes.”
Wakatoshi’s lips part. Here you’ve been, wholly exhausted, tending to his shrieking daughter and simultaneously keeping the household upright while also cooking dinner just so he had something hot to come home to?
He is so very grateful, right to the bottom of his heart. But what you need right now is sleep - not to worry about anyone or anything else. He can’t have his beautiful, perfect wife running on empty, can he?
Your husband murmurs your name softly, still rocking your hiccuping child in his arms and pushes you to sit down on the bed cautiously, careful to not upset you while you're in such a fragile state.
Wakatoshi’s fingers ghost your hairline.
“Toshi…” You lean into his touch, hot, tired tears threatening to fall from your eyes again. “I really tried, I just can’t-”
“You’ve tried enough. And you have done well.” He places a soothing kiss to your temple. It eases your headache. “It is time for you to rest now, I’ll take care of everything else.”
“But-”
He raises his palm outwards to stop you from speaking. “It’s okay, you don’t have to explain. I am sorry I was out so late, I should've come home earlier.”
“S’fine,” You rub your eyes with the back of your weary hand, noticing that your baby’s wet cries have died down to just the occasional little sniffle.
“It is not fine. I should do better at taking care of you both, just as you do.”
You shrug, eyes darting down to the floor, not knowing where to look instead.
“Thank you for being so strong.” He tips your chin upwards so your eyes meet to his, that comforting, serious stare that you’ve always been able to indulge in. “Now please get into bed, I do not wish for you to miss any more sleep than you already have.
Your newborn's breathing evens out, settled by the soft thump of Wakatoshi’s heartbeat and your gentle voices pattering back and forth.
You nod, sniffle a few times, and start peeling back the covers with the help of your husband. “But what if she wakes up again?”
He drapes the heavy covers over your body, dusting stray hairs away from your face. “Then I will deal with it. You need to sleep, or at least rest your eyes.”
Smiling tiredly with a small frown creased in between your eyebrows, you have no other choice but to listen to him, even if you tried, you don’t think your body would let you get out of bed now.
You watch Wakatoshi wordlessly as he switches off the bedside lamp and creeps out of the room as stealthily as he's able to. (Which is not very much - he’s a big man.)
You can’t help but keep your eyes open, body and brain waiting for the sound of the nursery door to open. When you do hear it though, your body instantly relaxes a little. You finally let yourself sink into the covers, pulling the plush blankets up past your face so only your eyes are visible.
The last memory you have of that night is the low creak of the bed frame as a warm body eases into the covers beside you, strong, steady arms enveloping you in their hold.

Your boyfriend, Wakatoshi, was the type to go along with whatever you said - as long as it was within reason. This also means he was the perfect person to try and mess with.
Today, you’ve decided to try and get a reaction out of him by teasing him about the ‘tights’ he wears while training in winter.
“Hey, Toshi-” You crane your head back ever so slightly to look at him, slotted comfortably between his legs on the bed, scrolling on your phone. “Why do you wear girl’s tights while running? Isn’t it uncomfortable?” You're glad he can’t see your face - otherwise he’d catch on at the sly grin plastered across it.
Wakatoshi takes a moment to think through what you just said to him.
“Girl’s tights?” You can practically hear the clogs shifting in his brain. “I do not wear girl’s tights while running.”
“Yes you do.”
“No, I do not.”
“You so do.”
“No, I think you mean my men's compression wear. Not ‘girl’s tight's.’”
You shrug. “Same thing.”
And that, somehow, sets your boyfriend off into an educational rant.
“The compression tights I wear provide muscle support and compression to improve blood flow, which is necessary during cold weather to lower risk of injury.” He claps his hands together over your stomach, still rambling on. “It reduces muscle pain and fatigue, enhancing muscle recovery after a straining workout. So no, I do not wear ‘girl’s tight’s’, I wear mens compression clothing for recovery and athletic reasons.”
You nod, stifling back a giggle. Most people don’t think that Wakatoshi’s that much of a talker, however, you know that that’s completely wrong, ask him about a topic he’s interested in or knows a lot about and he’ll yap your ear right off.
You pat his leg softly. “Okay, thank you for clarifying that.”
His nose brushes the back of your head slightly when he nods, arms still hugged around you - it seems you’ll be staying here a while.
“Not a problem.”

Thinking about Pro!Wakatoshi who hears Tobio talking about shaving his legs for Japan's upcoming game in the Olympics.
He overheard Shoyo and Tobio squabble over the idea that it would make you more aerodynamic and so Waka decided to try it out for himself.
He uses a regular mens razor, fresh from the packet though so it's extra sharp.
Wakatoshi walks out of the bathroom into the main space of your hotel room, where your sprawled on the bed scrolling on your phone.
He walks out with a satisfied look on his face, perhaps even proud of himself. What he doesn't notice however, is that the second he turned off the shower his legs started bleeding.
Profusely.
You lift your head up to see your pro player boyfriend all his 6'3 glory, absolutely smothered in blood from the waist down.
"Toshi..."
You spend the next thirty minutes patching up his legs and pointing out spots that he couldn't reach or missed completely.
This man left the back of his thighs entirely unshaven btw.
And yes, it was noticeable. Very noticeable.
Ushijima Wakatoshi competes in the Olympics the next day with bandaids plastered all over his legs. The press goes insane trying to figure out what happened.
You sit, giggling in your front row seat by the court with a stupidly large grin on your face.

Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who insists on never letting you carry anything. Whether it be your bag, the basket at the convenience store around the corner or even just some textbooks. With him around, your hands are always either empty, entwined in his or clasped around a bouquet of flowers.
Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who keeps his favourite photo of you in his old fashioned leather wallet except gradually he collects what some people might consider ‘too many’ and now his wallet is basically a portable shrine for you.
Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who can sleep through anything. But when it comes to your voice or the ringtone you set for him, he’s wide awake, checking that you're okay and safe.
Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who is your #1 glazer. He thinks literally everything you do is amazing, no matter how mundane it actually is. “My girlfriend can make pancakes without a recipe.” He yaps to his whole team about you. “She can balance on one leg for eleven whole minutes. Isn’t that impressive?” They all just smile and nod.
Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who insists on walking you to every class. Without fail, once that bell goes, Toshi is looming outside your classroom, ready to pick you up.
Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who buys you products he thinks you might like from his and Satori’s manga ads. He asks you to rate them afterwards, taking into account things like quality and effectiveness.
Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who doesn't understand sarcasm, you have to explain every joke to him and he listens seriously, noting them down in his head so he can repeat them later. He tries. He fails. But it makes you laugh anyway.
Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who uses Google and WikiHow for relationship advice. His searches are things like ‘Why does my girlfriend’s face get red when I express my love for her?’ and ‘Is excess blood flow to the face damaging?’ Satori sees all sorts of searches like that when he borrows his phone and teases Wakatoshi about it.
Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who is wholly and undeniably yours, loyal to the max. He said once that he intended to stay with you forever, that he wanted to build a future with you as long as you wished the same. He spoke nothing but truth.

Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who always makes sure you eat well, if he sees you without lunch one day then he’s definitely packing double portions of his the next day or he’ll bring you food directly- only a healthy, well-balanced meal, of course.
Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who takes you on dates that are way too fancy for highschoolers. I’m talking about high-end Omekase’s and all that. He has a mysterious source of income and you're too scared to ask about it.
Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who makes you join him on his early morning runs at least twice a week. He goes on about how ‘They’re good for you’ and all that but really, he just loves being around you and wants you involved in every aspect of his life.
Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who will secretly watch all your favorite shows and look into your favorite books and hobbies. He hopes to understand all of your niche references one day, if that's not too much to ask.
Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who is lowkey stupid when it comes to school. This boy got a sports scholarship for sure. Toshi is an absolute math BEAST but you have to help him study for literally every other subject, especially during exam season.
Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who posts you everywhere on his social media. As soon as Satori teaches him how, Wakatoshi has you plastered all over his instagram posts and stories. He either doesn’t caption them or writes something like. ‘This evening's sunset was enjoyable. I tried pistachio ice cream today because y/n said it tasted delicious. She was right.’
Boyfriend!Wakatoshi who doesn’t laugh that often but when he does, it's loud and unsurprisingly deep. Like this man bellows and you're afraid that anyone in a 5km radius can hear him. (They can. It practically shakes the whole school.)

Hinata Shoyo - Sho thinks your height is one of the coolest things about you! He’s definitely your biggest fan and he brags to anyone who will listen about how high you can jump/reach. He’s also definitely a little jealous and he’s not so great at hiding it either. Despite that he’s still your No.1 hype man, especially whenever you're feeling insecure about how tall you are, he’s the best at reassuring you and making you feel good about yourself. Loves jumping up to kiss you (or at least trying) it usually ends with the both of you clutching your nose or mouth in pain after he misses and your faces clash
Kageyama Tobio - Kags doesn’t really think about the fact that you're tall/taller than him often unless someone else brings it up, he sees it as a strength, not something to be ashamed of. If you are taller than him he’d definitely be a bit jealous but never mention it, you’ve caught him staring off to space multiple times when you two have been hanging out, oblivious to the fact that he’s calculating how high you could jump/reach for a spike or block on the court. He def teaches you how to hit one of his sets.
Tsukishima Kei - Beanstalk power couple. Need I say more? Kei isn’t jealous of you at all but he definitely thinks that tall people are superior. He teases Hinata and Nishinoya about his girlfriend being taller than the both of them, they go feral every time. Likes the fact that he doesn’t have to bend down to kiss you, it’s more efficient and ‘less corny’ - according to him.
Yamaguchi Tadashi - My poor little insecure boy :(. He’s def embarrassed about it but it’s all directed at himself, he thinks that he’s the problem and that it’s his fault for not being taller. Tadashi definitely thinks you're cool for it though, he just overthinks your dynamic too much and what other people might think. Loves that you can wear each other's clothes without anything being too long/baggy.
Nishinoya Yu - Yu thinks you're such a badass for being tall, he’s very similar to Hinata in that sense. Brags to Tanaka about having a girlfriend that’s a ‘super tall mega baddie’. He’s not self-conscious about his height at all when you two are together, if anything it gives him a confidence boost for the fact that he has a girlfriend alone. Loves picking you up and swinging you around in his arms to show off his strength and crush any worries you hold about your height difference.
Tanaka Ryunosuke - Ryu definitely gets all bashful and embarrassed when people bring up your height difference but that’s only because he’s shy about how he’s the shorter one. Talks so loudly in the hallways about having a girlfriend, he never shuts up about it tbh. Loves your legs and how long they are, constantly compliments you on them and talks to the members on his team about his ‘flawlessly beautiful gorgeous hottie girlfriend’. Noya and Hinata are so jelly.
Daichi Sawamura - Daichi never brings you being taller than him up but he gets extremely passive aggressive towards other people if they do, giving them a tight smile that makes everyone around you shiver. He also loves your eyes and is satisfied that he never has to crane his neck down to see them, your face is just always right there, ready for him to glance back and forth at. Put your shoes on once and didn’t realise until one of the team members pointed it out. Suga still brings it up to this day.
Sugawara Koshi - Suga lovesss your height, he’s obsessed with it and definitely brings it up but only to boost your ego through compliments or tease you playfully about it. Makes fun of the other third years for not having a girlfriend while gushing over his beautiful lady. Steals your clothes and gets away with it entirely, sometimes you don’t notice for months. Once he couldn't reach something on a shelf and then you grabbed it for him and he started batting his eyelashes at you and calling you his ‘princess in shining armour.’
Azumane Asahi - The height difference between you two freaked Azumane out at first, he was always used to being the ‘big’ one. He’s kind of shy about the topic but actually really likes your height, he says it makes you two able to relate to each other more. Azumane’s also a bit jealous of how high you can jump but he’s also weirdly proud of it, especially when others mention it, like in a ‘that's my girlfriend!’ kind of way. Likes the idea that the both of you are less prone to back problems in the future because you never have to bend down to kiss/hug.
