His knee tingles from the kind touch, just like the twinge in his heart when those gentle fingers brush through his bangs. There’s a stricken expression on Tooru’s face when Tobio’s hand moves away.
“Are you sure…it’s okay…?” His voice is wobbly, not at all like the strong, commanding voice on the court. “It’s okay for me to stay…? Tobio…” The setter knows the answer already, but it’s days like today, where he needs to hear it. Needs to be reassured, when the insecurities take a hold of him. He reaches out and places his trembling hand over Tobio’s.
❝ DARLING ❞ tobio reaches out with his free hand to rest it on the side of tooru's face. ever since they were kids, tooru's always been strong in front of everyone. after all, he's been a team captain for as long as tobio can remember. but tobio also knows that tooru has struggles just like everyone else.
❝ of course, you can stay, ❞ tobio reassures with a smile. warmth softens the blues of his eyes. he presses a kiss onto his partner's forehead, then kisses his lips softly. ❝ i love being with you. even during times like these. i promise, there's nowhere else i'd rather be, but right here with you. ❞

@crowconquer said: — ☆ ❝ tooru !!!!!! ❞ tobio wraps his arms around tooru from behind, && rests his chin on tooru’s shoulder. ❝ wanna make valentine’s day chocolates together ?? ❞ after kissing tooru’s cheek, tobio smiles brightly.
The first time Tobio had hugged him from behind like this, Tooru’s body had jolted from the contact. It was unfamiliar, new, their relationship only just budding at the time—but never unwanted. Now, he all but melts into the embrace, his back pressing further into Tobio’s chest. He feels warm and secure here.
Tooru doesn’t answer right away. His brain lags a little at the way Tobio calls out his name like that. With such care, such adoration. He snaps out of it from the soft kiss to his cheek, and Tooru turns—only to be left awestruck by that beautiful smile. He’s finding so many things to adore about his Tobio today.
In one fluid motion, Tooru leans in to kiss those smiling lips. “Mhmm~ only if they’ll turn out as sweet as you~ ♡”
HE NEVER REALLY BELIEVES in love at first sight. but love at first serve ?? absolutely. tobio will never forget the first time he witnesses tooru execute a jump serve, && reveals volleyball in a way tobio has never seen before. && maybe what's most breathtaking is how that wonder, that magic never fades over time. instead it only grows.
&& his heart races just as quickly now when tooru reciprocates affection. sky blue eyes widen at his partner's remark. ❝ tooru-- !! ❞ scarlet sweeps over his face as tobio grows flustered. the setter lets out a shy laugh. ❝ but nothing is sweet as you. ❞
in the kitchen, he passes over an apron to tooru. ❝ have you made chocolates before ?? ❞ tobio asks curiously. of course, tobio has a lot of experience from all those times of making tooru sweets.

Leaning his head against his partner’s shoulder, Tooru’s all cozied up on the couch next to their life-sized teddy bear, ready to watch the recorded volleyball match together.
Once the game begins, fond brown eyes immediately find Tobio in the lineup, and they curve at the corners whenever the camera catches a clear shot of Tobio’s tosses. Ahh. It’s beautiful. Since their middle school days, Tooru never gets tired of seeing those beautiful sets by those talented hands. He’s enraptured by them.
And he can feel one of those talented hands ruffling through his hair now. He nearly keens.
“Oi, you know how long it takes for me to do my hair.” He softly grumbles out instead, but makes no move to push Tobio’s hand away.
Tooru merely leans in closer, anchoring his head in a way to offer himself up for more petting. Don’t stop.
ALTHOUGH THEY’RE FAMILIAR WITH EACH OTHER’S VOLLEYBALL since middle school days, tobio still gets nervous when tooru watches his games. tobio supposes it has something to do with how tooru will always be his favorite athlete, && the setter he looks up to the most. it’s like second nature as tobio’s hand reaches out to play with his partner’s hair. auburn locks sift between callused fingers.
his nerves ease when at tooru’s remark. chuckling warmly, tobio caresses the other setter’s cheek. ❝ but you look beautiful all the time, love. ❞ he brushes some strands out of tooru’s eyes.

@crowconquer / surprise starter.
“ y’ didn’t have to jump in like that . . . ” he’s nursing a black eye , gaze roaming over diner menu with irritation held within mismatched hues. “ fucker got a lucky shot , that’s it. I had it covered. ”
❝ DUDE—— ❞ kageyama just looks right at chuuya. ❝ of course, i would’ve jumped in. i’m your bro. ❞ shaking his head, kageyama’s gaze falls back down to the diner menu. he’s got his own fair share of bruises && abrasions, but kageyama has no regrets. ❝ what’re you thinking about ordering?? ❞

The scuttling sounds coming from the living room make Tooru look up from the pot he’s stirring on the stove. "Tobio,“ He calls out to his partner. "The cats are in the tree…again.” : ─── @talentbloomed
BLUE EYES FLICKER AT THE CALLING OF HIS NAME. before tobio can ask what’s going on, tooru already gives an explanation. ❝ again ?? ❞ he laughs under his breath. at this point, tobio leans more towards fond exasperation than anything else. he steps away from the laundry he’s meticulously folding. ❝ don’t worry, i’ll bring them back, ❞ he reassures with a hand on the small of tooru’s back. ❝ that looks amazing, by the way. ❞ tobio nods at the stove. he gives his partner a kiss on the cheek before leaving to retrieve the cats.
it’s almost routine at this point, so it doesn’t take as long to bring them down. no injuries either. ❝ gosh, when did they get so big?? ❞ tobio chuckles as he returns with armfuls of felines.

“Would it be okay if I came home to you ?” : ─── @talentbloomed
HE LOOKS UP from where he’s kneeling on the ground before tooru. tobio’s been checking up on the older setter’s leg, && making sure it’s in good condition. there’s only adoration in those blue eyes, starting from their early days in kitagawa daiichi. with a soft smile, tobio reaches out to brush the fringe of auburn bangs out of tooru’s eyes. ❝ of course. always. ❞ his other hand rests gently over tooru’s knee. ❝ you don’t even have to ask. i’m here for you. ❞
