Well hello ;3

This will be a multi-chapter story. I made the first chapter pretty short as an introduction but the next ones are supposed to be much longer. Enjoy!

December weather surely made itself felt with biting wind and heavy, relentless rain which melted the snow gathered in the previous days. Tonight was no exception and the few people caught outside in the streets quickly found shelter under the roofs of countless stores, each decorated accordingly in preparation for Christmas. Kuroo was not one of them. There were only small drops of rain falling down when he left from work and as they progressively grew more violent there was no store in sight. His only choice was a small bridge nearby. With his jacket pulled over his head as his only protection against the stingy drops, he ran under the arch, letting himself slide against the wall with a content sigh.

Surprisingly, he wasn't the only one seeking shelter in such an unusual place. Kuroo shifted his attention to the small boy, intent on playing on his cellphone and paying close to no attention to his presence. He couldn't see too well in the darkness, though he could have sworn the kid was in middle school.

''Whew, you got caught in the rain too?'' He took off his jacket, pretty drenched after protecting his head. Oh well, it could've been so much worse. He was also really cold but he supposed putting his jacket on again would only result in him catching a cold and having to stay in bed for the next few days.

''Yes.'' The answer came in a tone laced with disinterest. That wasn't enought to stop him, though. He was stubborn by nature. ''Do you live nearby, by the way? If you walked a bit longer or stopped a bit sooner you could've found a store or somethin'.''

''I didn't think it would be this bad.''

''Yeah, same happened to me. The weather's just getting worse, huh?''

''Yeah.'' He turned slightly to look at the boy, annoyed with his lack of interest in having a conversation. Don't kids these days know the value of actually speaking without their phones?

Admitting defeat, he took out his phone as well, glaring sharply at the 'no signal' warning. Perfect. Couldn't be better. He spent the remaining time counting the empty cans scattered around the place. 27 in total. He had to start over again a few times but that wasn't his fault, it was way too dark to see clearly. It was around 21.30 pm when the rain finally slowed down and he mentally thanked God; he wasn't used to not speaking for such a long time. He got up, ready to leave, but stopped and glanced at the boy one last time.

''Well, I'm leaving. See ya.'' They probably wouldn't see each other again, but leaving without saying anything seemed rude, even though the boy paid him no attention once again.

The rain slowed down quite a bit but Kuroo arrived home dripping nonetheless. After taking his shoes off and throwing them somewhere along the corridor, he made his way over to the bathroom where he could finally take care of his clothes. He tossed them carelessly in the laundry bin and put on his pajamas, grey pants and white top. As he got into bed, he couldn't help wondering if the boy got home as well.

A/N:

Okay, this was it. I know it was really short but they will get longer, I promise. This is one of my first stories and I also don't have a beta reader so I'm sorry for any mistakes you may have found. Please let me know what you think.
