A/n: This is a part of a big multi fandom collab hosted by the wonderful @prettysetterbaby to celebrate this wonderful or lonely day. Decided to try my hand at writing for my fav libero Noya, this is my first time writing for him so hopefully he’s not too ooc. Make sure you go and check out the other stories [Valentines Masterlist] Give them some love too!
-Valentines day was a day that people either loved or hated, you always leaned toward hated in your younger years, then again most kids didn’t think too highly of love or romance.
-When you started highschool you swore you’d never fall in love no matter what. You’d weather any storm and stand strong.
- However you didn’t expect in your second year to encounter a storm by the name of Nishinoya Yuu.
-Noya crashed into your life, literally. You met the shorter boy when he slipped down the stairs and crashed into you. Rapid apologies and a promise to make up for it was the start of your friendship with the libero.
-It was funny how in just a few months you forgot your vow as you fell head over heels for him.
-It was after the game against Shiratorizawa that you waited excitedly outside the stadium for Noya and the rest of his team.
-Still buzzing from the intensity and victory of the game you didn’t even think twice before giving him a kiss when you saw him; which made his brain short circuit and you to be very much embarrassed when you realized you did it, and in front of his team. Suffice to say the feelings were mutual when he pulled you in for another kiss.
-Ever since that day you started to love Valentines as Noya made sure to surprise you in the best ways, even after you graduated and started traveling the world together it was a day he went all out on you no matter where on the map you were.
-This year was different, you had to return to Japan after your father had an accident. He needed someone to come and take care of his house while he recovered in the hospital, not wanting to put that responsibility onto your boyfriend. You told him to continue traveling and you’d meet up once your father had fully recovered.
-While you had made the suggestion to begin with being separated from Noya for over two months made you realize how truly lonely you were without him physically there. Now here you were sitting on the couch watching some boring tv show trying to call Noya to at least talk to him on this day, but he wasn’t answering.
“Hey this is Nishinoya Yuu, I can’t come to the phone--”
“Damn it Yuu!” You bursted out cutting off the recorded message, hanging up the call you threw your phone onto the couch. Frustration had boiled into anger after hearing the voicemail for the 10th time. Noya had never gone this long without answering one of your calls, even if it was the dead of night he would still wake up and answer.
Letting out a huff you reached over and picked up the phone again, exiting out of the contacts you went to your most recent texts with him.
You swipe down and look at the message you sent earlier in the day, each one of them was left on read. Why on earth would he do that, he hates when you left him on read so why was he suddenly doing it to you? Maybe he was hanging out with Yaku; no that doesn’t make sense he wouldn’t ignore you especially on valentines day.
As you tried to think of why he wasn’t responding a sour thought came to mind ‘what if he’s cheating?’ You quickly shake your head at such a stupid thought, Noya was one of the most loyal people you knew; he’d never leave you or do something to hurt you.
Even knowing that, the small shred of doubt from his unusual behavior gave you an uneasy weight in your stomach. You decide to distract yourself with a movie marathon, selecting which one to start with, you sit back and relax.
------
It was maybe a few hours into the marathon your attention is pulled from the detective about to tell who the murderer is by a knock on the door. Grumbling about having to be left in suspense you pull yourself off of the couch and slowly make your way over to the front door, who could be at the door; you didn’t remember ordering anything or anyone coming over.
You opened the door to find no one there, confused you looked up and down the hallway of the apartment but saw nothing. You think it was someone pulling a prank and are about to close the door when you noticed a rose on the doormat.
Brows furrowing, you lean down and pick it up, who would leave just one rose in front of someone's door? You walked back in closing the door, it was odd but the thought was nice; taking a vase out you filled it with water and set the rose in it.
Just as you were about to sit back down and continue watching the movie another knock at the door came, frowning you went over and opened the door to nothing but a rose on the mat again.
This continues 3 more times, every time you went to start the movie there was a knock and a new rose. Setting the 5th rose in the vase you quickly moved over to the door being as silent as possible, you were going to find out who this was.
Pressing your ear against the door to listen, when you heard footsteps approach and stop in front of the door you pulled back and threw open the door, mouth open to say something but the words never made it out of your throat.
There in front of the door with a bouquet of roses was Noya kneeling down in the midst of setting a rose on the mat, eyes wide staring at you like a kid who just got caught with his hand in the cookie jar. You both just stood in silence staring at each other until you finally found your voice. “Yuu?”
At hearing you say his name he snaps out of his shocked state and springs to his feet. “U-Uh hey babe.” A sheepish smile came onto his face, your eyes trail from his face to the bouquet in his hands then back up. He shifted putting the singular rose back with the others as you spoke again.
“Baby what are you doing here? You said you were going to Russia.” You took a step to the side and let him come in, his laughter gave a fuzzy warmth in your chest as he took his shoes off and looked at you. “That may have been a lie haha, sorry about that.” With his free hand he rubbed the back of his head. “I wanted to surprise you.”
“That’s why you didn’t respond” You let out a relieved sigh as you both walked into the living room. He'd been busy getting things done so they could spend today together; you knew you had nothing to worry about. “Yes I’m so sorry baby, I knew you’d want to call for a bit if I responded and I was trying to make sure everything was set up.” Setting the bouquet down on the table he walked over and embraced you tightly.
When you returned the hug your boyfriend seemed to visabble relax. “God I missed you y/n'' He said mumbled into your hair, a smile spread across your face. “I missed you too Yuu.” You said pulling back a little, a small pout was on Noya’s lips.
“Although I wish you didn’t open the door so soon, I had a whole plan set up.” He huffed with false annoyance that caused you to start giggling. “Hey don’t laugh!.” “Hehe sorry sorry babe but what even was your plan?” He let go, took a step back and crossed his arms. “I was going to keep leaving a rose at the door until I had one left, then I was going to stand at the door and present it to you.”
You couldn’t help but laugh more, because that was indeed something Noya would do. “Haha knowing you baby you’d be in a ridiculous pose too!” Noya cracked and began laughing too, “But that is the best part!” The living room was filled with your laughter, when it finally died down you took a few steps forward and gave him a chaste kiss before going and putting the rest of the roses in the vase.
“I’m glad you’re here, now I was in the middle of a movie marathon and I want to find out who the damn murderer is.” Noya snickered before hopping over the couch to sit down. “Well I don’t see any better way to spend this day then a movie date.”
You also hopped the couch, grabbing the remote and the blanket you had out; the two of you quickly got set up nice and comfy, once you were set up you looked at Noya. “Want me to restart the movie?” He shrugged “I mean if you want to, you mentioned murder so you might see clues you missed the first time.” You nodded your head and went back to the main menu of the movie. “Oh by the way babe.” Noya hummed in response as he wrapped his arms around you.
“Out of all the surprises you’ve given me, this was by far the best one.” Looking up at Noya “Happy Valentines day.” You could have sworn he had hearts in his eyes at hearing that from the loving look on his face, he kissed your forehead. “Glad to hear, happy Valentines day baby.”

Deaf:

Make it up:

Dirty little secret:

Words that live in stolen glances, in every lingering touch. Trapped behind warm smiles and mixed with laughter.
A story of adoration told in pools or rich brown and e/c, hugs filled with a yearning to never let go, the affection heard in teasing words.
To all around it is love, yet it remains silent; for they know why. Sometimes love and dreams clash, while they run to chase their dreams, their grip on each other loosens.
As the shouting from friends of luck and fortune fade into the background of the airport, the one falling behind calls out to the one walking away.
“Oikawa!”
As he stops and turns the words that had been building up die as eyes meet, no words are uttered but the unspoken message is clear.
Ehh, Red. Let's see- I wouldn't choose Blue, because her relationship with Green is just YES. Perhaps Yellow. She's a cute girl, isn't she?
Red is one of those characters I'm really chill with and I that I adore so much, yet don't have that OPT. He's just really cool and badass in the games- and he's cute and adorable in the special.
I DON'T KNOW WHO TO SHIP HIM WITH.
I feel bad, but yeah- I don't have an OPT for him. So if you want to convert me to a pairing it is possible. Very possible.

When I read THG back in 9th grade, I told EVERYONE to try it out. It was on a list of extra books we had to pick and read for English, but NO ONE LISTENED TO ME. It was, Hunger who? And now they all love it and I’m just like I told you, I told you.
It's funny when you tell them about a book and they just look at you as if it's the stupidest thing that they've ever heard of. But then when it becomes popular, you see them with their books, gushing about it. Then they suggest you should read it, and when you point out that you've read it way before they have- they just sort of glare at you for not introducing this to them sooner.
"it’s not just some stupid silliness to cash in on the vampire craze and glorify presidents" Goodness, honestly, when I saw the trailer, I thought it was just that. I thought it was all sorts of disrespectful, and it angered me. Excuse me. I'm GLAD this possibly isn't the case.
Oh no, it's wonderfully well thought-out and researched. I've even heard of some historians praising it. The vampires are actually in the business of politicians and... well, I don't want to give too much away. But it's not just idiocy. There is that actiony cinematic wow-factor going on in the movie, yes, but since the author is doing the screenplay I'm sure it can't be too far from the book.
I'll admit I wasn't too keen on the idea at first either, but the book definitely changed my mind. I mean, I know it's not for everybody, but I just don't like how it's been dismissed by people who've only seen the trailer... which, let's face it, isn't exactly the most informative thing ever as to what the actual plot is. The international trailer is much better, as is the case with Brave and a lot of other movies trailers I've seen lately.
