EXCEPTIONAL ༉ haikyū!! [RV/OG]

with his hand on her head, he pushed her a foot away from him with a bit of force to not hurt her. his eyes glared down at her before sighing again.

"can't you just stop acting like a child? thought you're the miss manager of nekoma."

that simple statement and the way his lips tugged upwards immediately icked her off before trying... again—trying to attack him with all her best.

"you're literally such a bitch!" kiiro said, still at her best.

tsukishima hummed and watched her struggle to get to him, which is in fact an unexplainable joy to him and even irks her more.

"you got the urge to even smirk over there!"

"huh? what was that? can't hear you from down there?"

"bitch! don't let me reach you or— oomf!"

her body harshly collided with tsukishima but he was able to hold her in his arms while maintaining his balance and keeping her up at the same time. as if on instinct, the moment he let her stand on her own, his eyes immediately searched kiiro to see if she had gotten any injuries or even the tiniest scratches.

"are you okay? are you hurt?"

and damn, that made her heart flutter for a moment. her golden eyes looked up at him, and at that, she seemed to have forgotten how to even speak.

"y-yeah... it was just..." words would not even form properly from her mouth. watching the tall blond check her all over, up and down, to ensure her safety.

tsukishima internally sighed after making sure before looking up at the man who bumped to her in the first place but was already far away from them.

good thing he's far away already. tsk, didn't even apologize.

and as he was about to speak up again, another person popped off randomly from their side.

"ro-chan, there 'ya are! i was looking for 'ya 'verywhere 'ya know and— who's tis?"

"taro.." kiiro glanced at him. the way she called his name... his nickname suddenly irked something within tsukishima. and to say, he does not like what he is feeling at the moment.

suna scrutinized tsukishima up and down. his face souring at the sight, which made the latter smirk even more to annoy the brunet further.

and the battle of saltiness begins...

kiiro stood there in between, watching the two have a silent eye contact battle for quite some time. honestly, she would have done something if she did not find the situation awkward for her despite being very close with the two boys.

"tsukishima~ we also bought you— oh, kii-chan! and oh, from inarizaki!"

"thank heavens!" kiiro silently prayed in her mind the moment she saw hinata and kageyama approach them.

"what y'll doing here?" hinata further inquired of the blond and brunet while happily munching on his strawberry tanghulu.

tsukishika cleared his throat and looked away, then suna looked away as well and stuffed his hands deep in his coat's pocket.

"me and ro-chan happened 'ta bumped 'ta 'tis..." his brown eyes glaring at tsukishima. "blond guy from 'yer team."

hinata 'ooh-ed' and nods before asking again. "so, you and kii-chan are on a date then?"

kageyama choked on his blueberry tanghulu.

tsukishima felt the entire world stop.

suna went tomato red and stammering.

and... kiiro is defeated.

"tobi-chan! here, water!" kiiro immediately offered her water bottle to him, in which he gladly took a big gulp.

"w-we aren't on a date, 'ya know?" suna let out a shaky chuckle, looking anywhere but hinata.

"hah, as if," tsukishima mumbled, but it was completely audible for suna.

"what did 'ya say, lanky blond?" suna said and raised an eyebrow at him, earning the same reaction from the latter.

"what? you deaf of sorts?" tsukishima retorted.

and just before anything could escalate any further, kiiro stepped in between and took suna by his hand before bidding farewell to the karasuno boys.

"it was nice meeting you guys again, but we have to go. have a great night!" kiiro waved to them as she pulled suna through the crowd, leaving the other three watching them urgently leave the area.

"well... that was something," hinata commented, looking over his two teammates, and he wishes that he should not have done that.

"damn, it reeks jealousy here," he mumbled this time, stepping away from kageyama and tsukishima as their eyes linger towards the direction where the pair left seconds ago.
