L*ve

college AU, friends to (sorta) lovers! kuroo x reader

word count: 1.3k

warnings: mentions of chemistry and stoichiometry

synopsis: For all his smartness, Kuroo doesn’t know about a lot of things— especially anything about L*ve. 

Kuroo is a little overwhelmed.

He shouldn’t, really; it’s such a simple and mundane sight, but there’s a storm of thoughts and feelings whirling inside of him right now, he can’t help it.  

You look, well, normal, to be honest. You look like you usually would during midterms: in a pair of fuzzy socks, some lounge pants, and this really cute, dorky oversized sweater he gave you last year for your birthday. Again, it’s nothing he’s ever not seen before.

He met you his second year of college, you being on your first, simply because you were friends with Kenma. It’s been two years since then, and he’s on the verge of graduating now; he just has to get through this year’s midterms, finals, a thesis, and then, he’s off to the real world. One thing at a time, though.

For now, his focus is getting through midterms. Really, that should be your focus, too; so he can’t really understand why you’re here, in his shared apartment with Kenma, baking.

Yaku considers himself a rather put together person, all things considered.

He shows up to his commitments in a timely manner- On time is five minutes early, no less! still rings in his ears from his grandmother's persistent use of the phrase throughout his life- he’s got everything he needs (mostly) at all times, and he’s respectful of other people’s needs around him, endeavoring to help whenever he can.

Yaku’s got a life that’s full of routine, expectations, and gentle monotony. It’s the way he likes it best; situations staying the same let him be a provider to others. He’s comfortable.

Until you enter the picture.

It’s fast and it’s bright, the way you’re just suddenly present, like a flashing tear of lightning in the silk dark, like a blast of wind swirling sand rapidly across the dunes, like a spark setting a pile of kindling ablaze in the blink of an eye.

It’s exhilarating (and a little terrifying) to have someone unravel his whole….his whole life, really, in such a short period of time.

You take his world, a wonderful picture-perfect thing of routine and simplicity, and let it fall. Shatter.

And the craziest part is that he doesn’t mind one bit.

You have him running into the gym two minutes late to volleyball on a Wednesday afternoon, apologizing profusely to an unbelieving Kuroo that he was just running a bit late today! when he spent far too long talking to you on the way out of class.

Lev looks at him in confusion one afternoon, blood still speckled on his knee, when he has to apologize for forgetting to carry bandaids with him today. But Yaku always carries bandaids, Lev reasons, watching the boy dash away to catch up to a class just letting out.

Yaku wasn’t going to tell him that he used the last bandaid patching up a hairline cut on your finger, or that he’s running to try and spot your face amongst the sea of people.

He doesn’t even stop to Yamamoto’s indignant cry as he makes a beeline out of the gym before Nekoma’s post-game cool off just because he saw your head amongst the crowd and just really wanted to talk to you.

Yaku’s life got leaps and bounds more interesting the second he saw your face. And as much as he hated to admit it, he’s gotten more than a little addicted to the heat licking up his cheeks whenever you’re around, the little lump in his throat every time you laugh and your eyes light up or you trace your fingers in patterns along an object or, god forbid, his shoulder or his arm.

You may have smashed his world, but he finds it quite hard to be upset when, curiously enough, he thinks it looks better from this angle.

And now, looking at the joy on your face after his confession, he feels the apples of his own cheeks stretch wide. He’s committed the moment unarguably to memory, but he’d do everything it took to get here all over again a million times for you.

Yaku Morisuke’s a bit of a mess when he’s around you, all things considered. But he's the luckiest man in the world with you by his side, and he really wouldn’t have it any other way.

hihihi juni :))) congrats on your milestone + event i am so so excited for u :))) gonna req something !! i’ll pick the song “better together” (jack johnson) + my smile + best boy izuku midoriya :)))

thank u juni and congrats again i love u bunches <3

hi hi gee !! thank you sososo much for sending something in. i’ve never written for someone like deku before so i hope u enjoy this and it’s not too cliche <3 luv u more !!

better together · smile · izuku midoriya

midoriya can’t stop staring at your smile.

it’s not that he wants to stop staring at it—quite frankly, if he could find it in himself to sit down one day and do absolutely nothing but stare at you, he would do it with no hesitation involved. it’s the fact that he isn’t allowed to sit down and just revel in your presence, your sunny demeanor, your brightness, that leaves izuku frustrated as hell sometimes.

like today; he and you are out grocery shopping. as mundane as it is, it has to be done, both of you so busy with other schedules that this is pathetically one of the only times you can be together. still, it was enjoyable, and he hums happily at the feeling of you tugging on his sleeve.

midoriya observes the way you light up at a sale on flowers. lilies, he instantly remembers, were your favorite, and they just so happened to be in bloom this season.

“we should get some!” you’re pulling him towards the flowers now, the shopping cart left by the shelves filled with various snacks and candies (izuku makes a mental note of where it is in case you stray too far). “here, i’ll get some for you to take home to your mom too! she’ll love them!”

every brush of contact between you two has him flushing, never quite used to your antics, but the smile you sport is even worse for him. there’s something special in the way your eyes crinkle, stars glittering in them, along with your beaming expression that has midoriya’s heart stammering in his chest.

“midoriya?” you peer at him through your eyelashes, snapping him out of his trance; you’re offering him a bouquet of pink lilies with a heart-crushing, devilishly teasing smile. “these are for you. you know what they mean, right?”

izuku midoriya blinks, and he thinks it’s about time to call an ambulance.

there’s a sort of sick, horrifying feeling in the deep pit of your stomach that only grows when you realize the flashes of soft orange light make inumaki’s face look heavenly.

screams and sobs echo throughout the streets. you don’t know from where, and you don’t know from who, but you do know that they are there one moment then gone the next. they’re cut off with the sickening sound of explosives; it’s as if the sun has come down to earth herself, allowing pieces of her body to come crashing limb by limb into what was once human society. your body trembles with each shake of the burning buildings as you lay beside toge.

his fingers lightly touch the side of your face, letting the soft pad of his thumb trace the slope of your nose. there’s a tear running down your face that inumaki wipes away with no hesitation. it really doesn’t do much, as more fall quickly afterward, yet he proceeds to cradles your cheek in his hand that has you biting your lip to add some roughness to the situation. inumaki’s eyes are searching you—for what, you can only wonder.

a singular wail. a burst of flames. a crack, and the sound of a building collapsing.

silence.

your lips part delicately in a small protest when toge shifts his touch again from his whole palm to just his pointer finger, drawing a tear’s pathway from the corner of your eye to your jaw to your bottom lip. his own jaw is firmly set, an expression you have not seen in him before, and his eyes are alight with a determined spark. this part, at least, is familiar; you easily let yourself get lost in his gaze, drinking in the crinkles at the edges of inumaki’s eyes, and he lets you, soaking up the imprint of your lips against his fingertips. there is a pause before he continues his journey across your face.

the rumbling of a plane passing overhead. whines of a bomb sailing past your window. horrible, awful ringing that leaves a fire in its wake.

then, silence.

his fingers don’t stop their careful trek, and the way inumaki draws hearts at both sides of your mouth makes your lips curl into a tiny smile. he copies your action, fingers tugging at your cheek, and you close your eyes at the comforting sensation. his touch disappears momentarily, later resurfacing again on your eyelids; he skims the creases and feels the way your eyelashes flutter briefly. it is cruel, toge’s palm implants on your skin as he one last time takes hold of the side of your face. the world is cruel, but i am right here. you do not dare open your eyes again.

the room you both lay in begins to shake. it is quiet at first, a mere afterthought of an outburst of chemical waste, but slowly grows to a quake. a rumble. a shuddering.

inumaki’s hold on you suddenly tightens. your senses are immediately on alert, but you do not move a muscle until his grip softens. his trembling fingers are so warm against your cheek. your continuous tears are so warm against your cheek. so unlike the toge you are used to, and so unlike the you that you are used to. fumbling, you find it in you to reach out to find his other hand in the darkness. fingers entwine with yours. toge lets out a chuckle. a pause, with skin on skin, heart next to heart, kindles turning into sparks turning into flames.

lips crash into yours as the world caves in.

and finally, once more, silence.

masterlist.

>> no one was ever able to predict when the lock and key would decide the right time to connect. but it seems like you’re going to be finding out who your soulmate is a lot sooner than expected.

soulmate au + one soulmate has a key that fits into the other’s lock perfectly + tsukishima kei

warnings: swearing (h*ll)

reblogs are super appreciated (i'd love to get to 100 soon!!) + my taglist in a separate rb!!

p.s. this is a repost from my old account :)

Idle.

That was the word to describe today.

Everything felt off, like the world was rebooting or stalling. Wading through the thick sludge of your mind felt nearly impossible, and the droning buzz of the classroom did nothing to help.

Your finger reaches up to idly trace the shape of your key, dangling from a chain around your neck. The wrought iron wove its way in tangles, thinning out near the bottom to form three teeth all sat in a rom.

Your soulmate’s lock had a spot for three teeth, then.

Easy enough, right?

Countless friends and classmates had found their soulmates since you had been children, just learning about the locks and keys around your throats.

It was seemingly random, if you got one or the other. As much as scientists tried, they couldn’t manage to find a single threat of correlation as to who got which one.

But it was always the same: one soulmate got a lock, the other got a key.

At a random time when your soulmate was close enough, the key and lock seemed to move on your own, tugging the two people closer and close together, until…

click.

The lock fell away, and the soulmates were showed to each other for the first time. Many people kept their locks and keys; though they were useless after the first meeting, they served as a memento. A promise of fate, if you will.

You’d like that to happen to you someday.

For now, you just kept the dark key on a chain, resting close to you heart.

Class droned on as usual, the fatigue that accompanied the afternoon weighing down on everyone in the room. The clock on the wall ticked with a grating precision, each click seeming to get on your nerves more than the last. Focusing wasn’t even in the picture at his point, eyes unfocused despite your attempts to hone in on any information you could.

Slam!

Everyone sat straight up in their seats, heads whipped towards the door where a breathless figure stood. He was tall, silhouetted by the afternoon Sun to cast a shadow into the room and obscure his facial feature. One had was resting on the door as he panted, hunched over slightly. The thing you couldn’t help but to be drawn to, however, was around his neck: a lock seemed to tug him forward, propelled by an unknown force. And you could recognize him anywhere.

Tsukishima Kei.

The two of you were both friends with Yamaguchi Tadashi, a shy but kind boy in the year above you. His snarky demeanor was off-putting, but you trusted he was at least a decent person, if he was hanging out with Yamaguchi.

He was deep in conversation with the teacher when your eyes focused back on him. You wondered who his soulmate was, but a quick glance around the room didn’t see any keys floating around.

What you weren’t expecting, of course, was for him to you up from where he was standing to make direct eye contact with you.

He said your name gently, then his finger reached down to point around your neck.

Your key was sticking straight up, tugging gently on the necklace in Tsukishima’s direction.

How the hell didn’t you notice that before?!

You swallowed, throat suddenly dry with the realization that Tsukishima was your soulmate, oh my god. Your stomach lurched, but you didn’t feel nauseous. It was sort of an unexpected pleasant feeling, high up near your heart.

Standing, you cross in front of your desk, standing far enough away from him to give him a wide berth. But it was unmistakable now: your key was made of the same material as his lock, and they were both straining to connect, impeded by your respective necklaces.

Glancing up at him, he nodded, before both of you moved forward. With the most satisfying sound, the two connected, fitting perfectly together.

It only lasted a moment before his lock clicked open, falling into his already outstretched palm. Your eyes were wide, and he looked flushed, but you couldn’t say you weren’t happy.

You were. You had found your soulmate.

The hand not filled already reaches out to you, beckoning you forward into a new life. A life with your soulmate.

And what choice did you have but to take it?
