✧ notes: fluff fluff FLUFF. best friends to lovers. mutual pining! hinata is very whipped. both are adults & implied drinking (nothing too detailed). sort of confession? yeah hinata has really been stretching it out for YEARS.

perhaps…perhaps hinata should've expected this.

hinata loves you. you in your loose-fitting blouse and all perched up in his couch, colors of your socks coincidentally matching with his, your candid lopsided smile and starry eyes that are somehow lustrous in this cold night. milky moon bathing you through his half open window. hinata loves you in your wine hues of your cheeks, you're slightly tipsy but sober enough that your words aren't slurred, yet. he thinks it's majestic how you tread your fingers through your hair and heave a sigh after a long road of exploring back to the years way behind, and you laugh in disbelief when you muttered. "has it really been that long?"

hinata believes it has been long, long since there lives a flourishing, aching sense that spreads wide in his chest, something he'd been accustomed to, but not actually fully accepted. not because he despises this growing feeling, but because there's never really a point for him to dive such unfamiliarty, something that's new and terrifying, because it has been long for the both of you to practically know each other, long enough that he can proudly say you've been a huge chunk in his life and him being a huge chunk in yours, long enough to be your best friend, an anchor and incomparable. there's no point in it, he thinks, to walk down a path with no undos and no map to guide on.

and, yet. "yeah, it has." he chuckles, soft and hushed and completely soaked in adoration. it's been too long since he sat down and brought himself to talk it out within, too long ever since you decided to go out of state and travel from one place to another, too long since he stands still and he watches your life play out as you move forward to a direction he feels he cannot live up to. too long since he've been like this, and somehow the familiarty of being your best friend is slowly gnawing him inside and out.

and now, your smile turns warm, hinata thinks you're glowing. your eyes drift to some faraway distance, head in the clouds, he permits the lull of silence in welcoming arms. the exhale that leaves his lips are out of dwelling. he grins as he hears you settle for an exhale as well, only that it's more of a long sigh that sounds slightly dramatic.

he turns to you, as he does so, he's speechless as he caught you pulling out a penchant underneath your clothing, he hadn't notice it since now, it glimmers against the pooling moonlight. it's a penchant he gave you before you depart, before he decided to bring out the words he wanted you to know but his hands got clammy and his throat choked the last courage he had mustered, so he just placed it in your palm and give it a squeeze, a small 'bye' that's withdrawn and pained, his robotic wave as you bid him farewell. 3 years, it's been 3 years, he reminisces. he never would've thought he'd see you wear it.

he stares as you twiddle it with your thumb and index finger. you began, "it's like bringing a part of you with me, you never actually left." you blink to look at him, and soon he finds no amount of words can ever fit to this…beauty, to you, to how he can see his reflection in your eyes, to how it's peppered in stardust, to how your lips lift to another smile, to how he's lovestruck and to how he is drunk-dazed the moment you open your mouth to utter the words:

"thank you, sho, you're truly something."

air is coughed out of his lungs. he breathes out, his expression crumbling into something more…aching, yearning.

oh, he's had enough of it.

and so he's here, the three words heavy on his lips from carrying the weight of his feelings, heavy from all the doubts and second guesses and taking one step forward and then stumbling two steps behind.

"i love you."

he says with desperation dripping ever so slowly, when he blinks and sees your face falling into one with pure shock, his hand is quick to slap to his lips. it flew like clockwork, natural but half-not. did he really just said that?

your smile is gone and you're wide-eyed. but he sits still, the world stills, he lets it, he lets the words sink in deep. another moment passes and he notice your eyes rapidly blinking, as if it's stinging. it soon follows a quiet sniff, gentle and continuous streams of tears, and a gasp as you mutter, "you…what?"

this time, it's a little more certain, rolling off his tongue with each syllables fitting into a serious glint as he reach for your hands, giving it a long squeeze. "i love you."

it did in a sense, you chuckle, gradually turning into a hearty laugh that reverberates from your chest. you stumble for a bit, finding it unreal, as if your brows creasing together and a slight shake of your head as if trying to wipe off a dream isn't any indication. "shoyo, i love you."

you squeeze his hand just as much. "took you long enough."

hinata never expects much. especially not from you, but maybe, he should've been more selfish. he brought your hands to his lips, greeting each knuckles with kisses, grazing over your fingers as he tenderly place it on his warm cheeks. he chuckles, entirely enamored. "thank you, for waiting for me."

for simple words, it can carry the weight of hinata's big heart. he can't recall how many times he said it that night, and he doesn't feel the need to. the spark is always bright in the way he giggles after whispering it in your ear, after carrying you to the bed and snuggling against you, body warmth so comforting as it lulls you both to sleep, the spark is there but its mellow and its gentle. and when dreamland comes to pick up the both of you, the last thing he sees is you and your cute smile, before closing his eyes, and letting himself selfishly wish that tomorrow, he wakes up with you on his side.

✧ notes: (i hate my writing here) anyways i wanna kiss hinata so bad heh. also can u tell i love writing fluff, and friends to lovers trope. i hope ur not tired already LMAO but i promise my next work will be a little different :] proceeds to be inactive for the next few weeks

"You should dump him."

Without looking up from the water bottle you're filling you snort and say "and then what, get together with you?"

"Yupp."

Your eyes flash to Suna's face, his eyes already locked onto you with conviction. With a conviction that's so serious it makes you frown. "Stop joking."

"I'm not." His sharp gaze never leaves yours. "I could treat you better--I would treat you better. I actually give a shit about helping you and know how. Even if I didn't, I wouldn't just flop around uselessly like a wet noodle."

You don't know what to say to that. You'd just been letting off a little steam, venting to Suna like you have before and didn't expect this.

At all.

The way Suna's looking at you though makes you wonder if you should have.

He's looking at you like he can see right through you.

Like he can see all the ways you've imagined him as a friend, as a boyfriend, as a lo--

"I'd take care of you," he tells you resolutely and walks away without waiting for your reply.

You're left frozen in place as your mind spirals out of control and your heart

chases after him.

betrayal liners

"i should have seen it coming."

"given your history, i should have known better."

"please tell me that at least a part of it was real."

"[friend's name] tried to warn me about you, but i didn't listen, you know."

"i was ready to give you my heart."

"you should have killed me earlier, so i wouldn't live to see this."

"get away from me."

"kill me right now then, i dare you."

"i should have left you bleeding to your death."

"do you have any regrets doing this to me?"

"i hope you will remember this until your death."

"i loved you in this lifetime. i won't make that mistake in the next."

"no one could have saved you."

"somehow, i expected that this would happen eventually."

"do we really have to end it all?"

"the worst of it all, it's that if you ask now, i will forgive you."

"are you expecting me to beg for my life now?"

"you made a promise."

"we could have had a thousand of tomorrows together."

"i lost, didn't i?"

"i deserve this. you deserve to kill me"

"technically you won't kill me, because i gave it to you. do it properly, then."

"make it quick, please."

"please tell me why."

"was i not enough for you?"

"please forgive me for pushing you this far"

"i forgive you."

"boo."

you jump two feet at the presence of your boyfriend, iwaizumi, as he sneaks up behind you. a squeal leaves you when he traps you in his jacket and arms.

"haji!" you huff, looking at him incredulously, "you scared the daylights out of me!" you squirm under his jacket, wrestling against the man.

he grins, holding you closer as he has confined you in his jacket. you don't really mind it, he's shirtless under the thin material and feels really toned. like, really toned. your head feels like it's resting on clouds instead of pecs.

"what did you want me to meet you for?" he asks, pressing a kiss to your cheek.

"nothing important, just need to go run some errands and wondered if you wanted to come with me?" you ask, squeezing his hand.

"oh," he tries to hide his fallen expression of disappointment. he really didn't want to think you forgot his birthday, but with the way things were looking, he thinks maybe you did. "sure."

he can't be mad at you, or upset. or he tries not to, because he is, but not so much to the point of him wanting to talk about it.

"great! let's go!" you say, moving to separate from him. he seems spaced off and you nudge him gently.

"haji?"

"yeah?"

"you need to unzip me first."

"oh, right."

by the time you get to the car, you pause, telling him there’s something you need to do.

“this errand requires you being blindfolded.” you explain straightforwardly.

he raises a brow, skeptical, "what's going on? is this a prank?"

"close your eyes, please." you instruct, avoiding his question. “i can’t tell you without over explaining.”

iwaizumi sighs before following your instructions, feeling a cloth being tied around his eyes. once making sure the cloth isn't too tight and making him pinky promise to not peek (with sworn honor), you hit the road.

"how long is this errand of yours going to take?" he asks, mindlessly glancing as if he could see.

"not too long. it'll all make sense when we get there. trust me."

"right." he tries to settle back in his seat, but the impending thoughts in his mind would not rest.

eventually, the trip for this 'errand' becomes a 45 minute drive (iwaizumi knows from asking for the time repeatedly).

he wants to joke that you're kidnapping him and taking him out somewhere suspicious, but doesn't.

the car comes to a complete stop eventually, and his drowsy nature leaves him completely. he hears your get out and coming around the side of the car to where he is, and he can't help the beat of his heart.

"careful," you make sure he doesn't hit his head on the way out of the car. your hands, much more soft and delicate than his own, move you both out to another area. he hears chirping and the sound of gravel and grass as you two walk. something about the scent of the air...is all familiar to him.

could it be—

"okay, we're finally here!" he hears you say. "i'm going to take your blindfold off now."

he grunts in acknowledgment, feeling you fiddle with the cloth before it slips off completely. his sight is blurred and he blinks repeatedly, rubbing his eyes before they adjust to his surroundings.

his green eyes light up with recognition, "it's—"

"the park we used to play in as kids, yes." you giggle, smiling. "you thought i forgot, didn't you? about your birthday?”

he looks mildly panicked but shakes his head, "what? n-no..."

you chuckle, "yes you did, you looked so grumpy when i told you i was going on an errand. is it really that easy to get you to do something for me?"

"if it's you, then yes," he answers without hesitation, "i do trust you, after all. but you know i'd do anything for you—even if it drives me insane."

you become shy at his words and how forward he is, but also flattered.

he's silent as he inhales, taking in his surroundings, "wow, it hasn't changed too much."

"still as beautiful as i remember," you add, lacing your fingers with his.

he pulls you into his side, "and you've gotten more beautiful since then,"

you laugh into his chest, "no need to flatter me."

"jus' telling the truth." he says, and when you look up at him, you can tell by the dust on his neck, cheeks, and ears that he's being honest.

the two of you sit on a blanket, eating the food you packed and made (all mostly your boyfriend's favorites). you both reminisce over your childhood together, basking in the memories that felt so vivid, they could've happened yesterday.

the two of you would go bug catching, and occasionally oikawa would too. it was really the start of your friendship with each other.

"you wouldn't even go near any bug with a ten foot pole now." he laughs, clutching his side. "it's so funny, i need to tell shittykawa about this."

"t-that's not the point! you know i used to be brave enough to!" you pout.

"yeah, i thought you were crazy for picking up dead cicadas and talking to them." he smirks, poking your sides.

"maybe, but you like crazy." you roll your eyes.

he hums, pulling you into his side, "you're right. you're my perfect type of crazy."

you feel an elated warmth all over your body as you lean into his touch. "i have another surprise for you." you announce, beaming.

he raises a brow, surprised, "more? well aren't i lucky. what is it?"

you show him the bug nets and jars you brought, just like how when you were kids.

"you didn't."

"but i did!"

the two of you go out more into a woody area and venture for bugs. well, more like iwaizumi did, and you followed.

"you know we don't have to do this if it makes you uncomfortable..." he says, glancing over his shoulder for the umpteenth time to check on your stiff state.

"oh! i'm fine, i promise!" you say, waving your hands.

"really?"

"really!"

he doesn't look convinced. "okay, because there's a beetle on the tree right behind you." he says.

you shriek, fleeing down the meadow, making your boyfriend bark with laughter.

"kidding," he says, wiping a stray tear from his face.

"you're mean, haji." you pout, frowning.

he coos, kissing your forehead, "ahh i'm sorry, sweetheart, just messing with you. i've always protected you from the big bad bugs, haven't i?"

"sure," you sigh, relaxing again.

resuming your search, you grow a bit more comfortable with your surroundings and such. following your boyfriend, he pauses for a moment, noting a stag beetle on a tree bark.

"it's a rainbow stag beetle," he notes, holding it close and far enough from you to see.

"it's pretty," you murmur, admiring the metallic like colors of the shell.

he looks at you, "you want to hold it?"

there's a hesitant look on your face, "i don't know..."

he smiles, "you don't have to, it's okay. they are pretty harmless to humans, though."

"okay, well maybe—" you stiffen as he places the creature on your palms and shiver at the way it feels when it moves.

"not so bad, right?" he says, looking at you fondly.

"maybe not. i forgot how fun it is." you grin, looking back at the beetle. "and they're kinda cute...i guess."

eventually the two of you let the beetle go, bidding it goodbye and continuing your search for other fun things.

the night ends with you singing (to your best ability) iwaizumi happy birthday. even if it isn't the most beautiful singing he sure makes it look like it is. you hold the cupcake with a singularly lit candle.

"happy birthday haji! now blowout the candle and make a wish!" you say, beaming.

he can't help the shy smile that creeps to his face. he had never been the biggest fan of his own birthday (even with his obnoxious friends hyping it up), and especially now as an adult it felt just like another day. but something about celebrating it with you made him remember the special feeling of doing so when he was a kid.

he blows out the candle and you cheer, scooting to sit on his lap.

"okay, final gift." you announce, reaching for a bag.

he frowns, "i hope you didn't do too much for me." he didn't like when you spoiled him too much, but you don't care. he deserves it all.

"i can never do enough for you, what do you mean?" you pout, handing him the gift, "open it please?"

he takes the gift, unwrapping the objects from the tissue. one gift is a new watch for him to wear (since his old one long stopped working, and he was too lazy to get a new one) and the second, being a framed photo of you both as kids after bug hunting for your first time.

your boyfriend is silent after looking at the photo and you grow worried at his lack of response.

"are you okay? you're silence is scaring me—" you're surprised by his lips on your mouth, his calloused hand holding your jaw tight.

"thank you, you're a gem. you know that? an angel." his emerald eyes hold so much emotion, and you know he wants to say more. he's never been one big for words so he only kisses you again.

once pulling away, you shiver from the cold air and he sighs, unzipping his. "come here."

facing towards him, you wrap your legs around his torso, feeling his arms around you.

"you should've brought a jacket," he scolds, "i always tell you—"

"to keep one just in case, i know. but it's better like this. laying on your boobs."

he flushed red, "must you call them that?"

"yes," you answer, groping his chest. "it's not my fault they're so nice."

he doesn't answer you and only laughs. "anyways, thank you, for bringing me here. and celebrating with me." he says.

"of course, i'm glad you had fun. i've never seen you smile so much before. i always love seeing your smile.”

"well, when i'm with you, i do that a lot..." he says, scratching the back of his head.

"i’m glad. so, what did you wish for?" you ask, wrapping your arms around his neck.

he smiles, "can't say."

you boo, grabbing his face, "aw come on, tell me! you're no fun..."

"you're not supposed to tell or it won't come true, right?" he asks, booping your nose.

the touch makes your wrinkle it up. "i guess so. but whatever it is, i hope it makes you happy."

he doesn't necessarily have to hope when all he needs to be happy is right here in his arms. the only thing he can hope for now, is for the perfect moment to propose to you and for a 'yes'. he's always know long in his heart you'd be the one he'd spend the rest of his life with.
