kenma pushed your bedroom door open to be met with the sight of you sitting cross legged watching your favourite anime. your room was still clean for the most part minus the few pieces of clothes and dishes that collected on your floor.
you turned your head with the side of your hoodie covering one eye, "hey, love. mom didn't talk to you for long right?"
kenma shrugged and layed down next to you staring at the ceiling, "no, she didn't talk long. i don't mind, she's nice."
you chuckled bitterly at the thought of your mother being nice. she's had her bad moments but with those moments come the good ones. you thought back at the time when she told you that you seemed like you wanted to do drugs, drugs as in antidepressants. she wouldn't allow you to start meds and that hasn't changed, she's only put you in therapy.
"yeah."
kenma wrapped his arms around you and pulled you down into his chest, his eyes skimmed your thighs you had a few scars some of them looked as if they were from scratching yourself. his lips turned into a frown and he traced his finger tips across them, you flinched slightly and looked down at him. he looked upset, "i'm sorry i wasn't with you sooner."
you smiled and rubbed his head, "those are old, i've been clean for some time now."
he kissed your forehead, "i'm proud."
recap of the past two weeks
kenma had met your family within the first week despite him being nervous, you being there had helped him immensely. your family was happy that you had found someone, someone to be with when you needed. someone to be with when you wanted, they were happy you had an outlet to go to when you needed help. you now had kuroo and kenma by your side plus aiko.
kenma's parents on the other hand were difficult to connect with but over the past few days you visited they grew more comfortable with you. they were rather supportive when you had told them your interests and found your piercings and tattoo eye-catching, they thought it was perfect for kenma since he didn't want to stand out.
you two matched perfectly. you two weren't really interested in major dates or overly public affection. you both enjoyed simple hangouts like naps, getting takeout, watching movies or playing minecraft as well as letting kenma try to teach you how to play different games. you didn't mind it when he decided to play games whether it be at your house or his, it gave you time to work on drawings.
you hadn't been at school much so kenma had been bringing you all your work and doing the best he could to give you support. aiko and kuroo stopped by a few times and hung out with you too, they've given you updates about school drama and volleyball. you promised to go to their next game against karasuno which is tomorrow, you've seen them play before but you haven't seen their first years.
in these two weeks you and kenma have gotten even closer. maybe it's the fact that you two are more alike than you think.
at eleven pm you walked kenma to your front door and watched him put his shoes on. for some reason your goodbyes always took at least fifteen minutes. kenma looked at you, your fuzzy, grey blanket hoodie almost covered your eyes and the sleeves went past your hands.
you dragged him into the seventh hug of your goodbye and rested your head on his shoulder, "see ya, love."
he pulled his head back and looked at you, he wanted to test the waters. slowly he leaned his head in and nibbled on his lip when he saw your eyes get bigger when you looked at him through your lashes. once your lips met he pulled your waist closer, he couldn't get enough of your lips... they fit perfectly with his.
yours and kenmas first kiss of the relationship couldn't have been any better.
your cheeks reddened as you pulled away, "i'll be at your game to cheer you on."
he smiled, a smile that didn't seem like his smiled. it was a pure smile filled with happiness, "i'll be listening."
you layed in your bed with half lidded eyes about to fall asleep, the fuzzy feeling spread throughout your body. you loved kenma or do you just get attached too quick? you remembered what aiko told you, 'fast moving relationships aren't always bad. it just happens when you meet the right person.' you wanted to give kenma the world just like you wanted to give aiko the world, that's all you wanted. you had to stick around to show them how much you cared for them, even kuroo.
most of your absent days included sleeping, working, hanging out with your trio of friends, having kuroo come over to help you with your work and feeling your mood brighten when aiko would be to come over and help when in reality she would only distract you with her goofy antics and working on your present to yaku.
you checked your phone, an hour and a half till nekoma vs karasuno. standing up your vision went blurry, leaning against the wall you regained your vision and headed to the bathroom. doing your business you got dressed. you looked at your outfit in the mirror, the blue, plaid mini skirt enhanced your curves and the sheer, black stockings added to your nonchalant vibe, a fitted black t-shirt and your converse completed the look.
heading out the door you quickly made your way to nekoma. the gym door was open, walking in the music drowned out the sounds of the volleyballs. 'uproar' by lil wayne made you lip sync the lyrics as you walked towards your teams bench. karasuno was warming up right now giving you time to talk to the boys.
nekomata noticed you and waved and gathered up the boys, "boys! as most of you know this is [name], sora's younger sister. don't let her down tonight!"
the boys nodded and cheered, "we won't let you down, [name]!"
aiko smiled at you and waited near the stairs to the bleachers.
you turned to yaku, "you got this, win it!"
it felt good to be back and watching a game, almost like this game was dedicated to you as your first game back.
"goodluck, love." you said as your gave kenma a quick kiss on the cheek.
leaving the group you heard a karasuno boy say, "kenma has a girlfriend!?"
you turned your head towards the orange haired boy who was looking your way in awe and waved giving him a small smile before following aiko to sit down.
the game begun and you watched karasunos first years, they were insane. their quick attack was amazing, you couldn't help but be impressed at how much that team improved. your eyes followed kenmas figure as he did a setter dump scoring another point for nekoma, you cupped your mouth and cheered, "go kenma!"
he looked up into the crowd and smirked feeling happy with his move. the game continued and nekoma won, heading down to the bench you jogged up to kenma and gave him a hug.
"you smell like sweat."
kenma groaned, "that's the first thing you say?"
you laughed and squeezed him, "good job! i'm proud!"
you turned to the team, "good game guys!"
"[last name]!" a voice called out.
you turned around to karasunos side and saw sugawara standing waving.
your lips immediately formed a smile, "suga!"
you gave you a quick hug and looked at you, "you came to a game!"
nodding you looked over and saw daichi, "hey daichi!"
daichi and sora used to have a small, friendly rivalry because they played against each other in elementary school a lot. you had a short conversation with them and explained to the small boy that you and kenma were dating as of two weeks ago.
you, kenma, aiko and kuroo walked back to your house. the walk there was quick, walks always felt faster when it was dark. you couldn't seen to kick the feeling in your chest, it was clouding your head and it was making you want to pull at your hair. but for your friends you had to keep it in, you didn't want them to be worried. although you didn't know that they've been worried for the past couple weeks.
"is kenma staying at your house for the weekend?" aiko asked while clinging onto kuroo's arm.
"yeah my parents went to visit my grandma so they won't be back till tuesday," you responded.
kuroo patted your head, "have fun you two, maybe we can all do something tomorrow? [name] could drive us somewhere."
aiko threw her hands up in the air, "it's scary when she drives! i never drive, let me!"
you squinted your eyes and stared at her while pressing your lips together and smiling, "that's why it's fun."
kenma tugged on the back of your shirt signalling that he wanted to go in.
"fine, [name] can drive! i saw we go for a long drive and listen to music or something, stop and get food."
you all agreed and headed your separate ways.
you had the house to yourself tonight because rin was at a friends house, you and kenma had been home alone before obviously you aren't children anymore but it felt like there was a bit of tension. you looked over at kenma who was occasionally glancing at you while you changed into a big hoodie and new underwear.
"what's wrong, love?" you asked. it scared you when people you were close to were upset, you always thought it was because of you.
kenma turned his head and bit on his tongue, "nothing, just uh at the game you seemed close with a few of them?"
your eyes widened, kenma was jealous. you took his phone out of his hands and tossed it down the bed before climbing on top of him. his hands reached out as he quickly sat up trying to reach his phone to continue his game.
you layed down on his chest while straddling his waist, "i don't know then very well, they knew my brother."
kenma nodded and pulled your face up to his, a dark blush covered most of his cheeks. you tiredly smiled getting the idea and leaned in placing your lips on his, he wrapped his arms around you and pulled you in even closer while deepening the kiss. the kiss turned into a make out, kenma continued to push you against him and kept a hand around the back of your neck.
with kenma you felt okay. with kenma your emotions disappeared for a bit and filled with love.
play 'good old fashioned lover boy' by queen.
you and kenma sung the lyrics back and forth, you could tell his confidence was slowly building partly because he was comfortable around you.
you spun him around the kitchen while singing, smiling he continued the lyric. letting go of his hands you slid past him, "say the word your wish is my command!"
he smiled and laughed, "ooh love!"
you jumped at him and let him swing you around, "ooh lover boy!"
he set you down and looked into your eyes, "i love you."
you heart started to beat faster and the warm feeling spread like a fire, "i love you too."
kenma didn't expect himself to be sitting in his room playing the same song a month later while looking through your social media that had you two posted on it, hoping you'd be okay.
