Chapter 21

"I guess we will have to play along." He simply said and my eyes widened

'I didn't think he would actually go along with it.' I thought to myself

"Are you sure, we could just tell her it was a lie," I say and Kageyama caught one of my hands and gently entwine his finger with mine

"Yea, but that wouldn't be fun." He says while he pulls me towards the door

'Aren't you suppose to be sick?'

-

"Wait-" I try to complain but Kageyama already opens up the door, revealing a just as shocked Miwa

Miwa smiles at the two of us brightly

"Food is done, so you both can take a seat." She said while she headed into the kitchen

"We should tell her the truth." I hissed to Kageyama who in return ignored me and pulled me along to the table.

We sat down next to each other, while Kageyama finally let go of my hand.

Miwa set a bowl of rice in front of both Kageyama and me, but before I could grab mine Kageyama quickly grabbed mine and started to put food in my bowl.

"Wait you're sick-" I start to argue but Kageyama placed my bowl back down in front of me

"Enjoy~" He says and small a smirk forms on his face before quickly disappearing as he got his food.

"Thank you for the food!" I say happily while I take a bite of a piece of chicken, bit instantly my mouth is on fire

"L/n, are you OK? You have a lot of spicy stuff in your bowl." I hear Miwa worriedly say to me

"Spicy food is actually L/n's favorite food," Kageyama says as he glances at me

"Right, L/n?" He asked almost like he was enjoying himself

"Y-Yes that right." I say trying to not let the spice get to me then add "But you like spicy things more than me, so you can have this." I say while I take the rice bowl he had in his hand and switched it with mine.

"Enjoy~" I say mocking what he said to me earlier

"Thank you for the food." I hear Kageyama say before slowly taking a bite of the food, while I enjoyed the non-spicy food that was in his bowl.

-

"I'll help you clean up," I say to Miwa while I stood up and began to gather the bowls

"Actually, we can take care of it," Kageyama said while he stood up and started to collect the empty dishes too.

"Wait, but your still suppose to be in bed!" Miwa scolds but Kageyama ignores her and walks over to the sink with the dirty dishes

"Here I can take care of it, you can go rest," I say while I roll up my shelves and turn on the water

"No, I want to help," Kageyama says while he also rolls up his shelves and I had him a rag instead

"Dry them," I say while I began to wash the dishes

"But drying is-" He started to complain but then realized how much was already done

"Wait! Slow down!" He told me while he quickly started to dry off the towels

We both continued to work quicker, each of us trying to one-up the other when-

Shatter

We both look at each other realizing what just happened, then look down at the broken glass

"What just happened?" I hear Miwa ask from the couch that was luckily pointed away from the kitchen

"Nothing." We both said in unison while I quickly bent down and started picking up the pieces of glass and tossed them into the trash while Kageyama followed behind me with a broom.

After everything was cleaned and dry Kageyama and I both headed towards the couch and sat down.

"Kageyama, is it Ok if I stay in your spare bedroom?" Miwa asked and Kageyama glanced over that the closed door that looked identical to his

"No." He said coldly

"Why not," Miwa whined at Kageyama who just stared at the TV screen

"Because." He said sharply, trying to end the conversation where it was at

"I'm your older sister, you should respect your elders." Miwa pled

"And this is my apartment, and I said no."

"What are you hiding in there? A volleyball net?" Miwa said while she quickly stood up and ran towards the door

"MIWA STOP!" Kageyama yelled this time, causing her to freeze in her tracks

"If you really want to know what's in there, I will explain later." Kageyama said then added, "It's getting dark and I need to take L/n home."

Miwa was silent, while Kageyama got off the couch dragging me once again behind

"W-wait I can go on my own, you should go and talk to your sister," I said using my weight to make him stop at the front door

"The faster you get home, the sooner I will talk to her," Kageyama said and I sighed knowing I wasn't going to win

"I'll see you around Miwa!" I say before Kageyama finally pulls me out the door

We walked silently together, with me leading the way.

"Hey, Kageyama."

"Huh?" He replied and I started to walk backward to face him

"What is so important in that room?" I asked and he just stared up at me causing me to get lost in his ocean eyes.

He stopped walking causing me to stop also "Its something that's valuable"

"Valuable?" I said in a questioning tone and he nodded

"Something I don't want to lose again."He said and I knew what he was talking about

"Kageyama-" I started to say, but him quickly pulling me made me stop

"They should watch where they are going." Kageyama hissed while the bike sped past us

"Kageyama, what?" He said while his attention turned back towards me, and our faces were only inches apart

"I remember." I finally admitted he just stared at me in shock

"It was earlier today when I-" I started to explain what happened when a pair of soft lip interrupted me

I stared into the ocean eyes, they were looking at me for a response while he slowly back away

"I'm sorry-" He began to apologize but I interrupted him by pressing my lips against his. He responded by wrapping his arms around my waist, closing what gap was in between us.

"Wait you're going to catch my cold." He said pulling away from me, and the cold breeze hit my body from where is warmth was

"It doesn't matter," I say with a soft smile while my cheeks turn red

"Yes it does, you want to go to volleyball practice tomorrow." He said reminding that I could play, while he gently touched my cheek

"L/n." He said softly

"Hmm?" I hummed

"I-I like you." He said while cheeks turned red as he spoke

"Looks like the King fell in love." We both turned towards the voice it belonged to

"Akina!" I happily cried while I ran over to her and hugged her

"K-Kim?" Kageyama says, still a bit shocked

"Kageyama I can walk her home from here." Akina said

"O-Ok, I'll see you tomorrow L/n." Kageyama said with a wave before walking in the direction he came from

"I know your going to tell me what happened, right?" Akina asked while we began to walk

"Yea, yea."
