Nice Receive

A Haikyuu! fic collection

by mew-tsubaki

Note for all chapters: The Haikyuu! characters belong to Furudate Haruichi-sensei, not to me. This is a drabble collection, with possibly some oneshots mixed in, of things I write on tumblr (sometimes as an ask, sometimes just because). ;] Read, review, and enjoy!

"it's been a long time since i saw your smile"

He's been away for far too long (months, oh no!), and it doesn't feel quite right to walk back onto the court (well, just the bleachers) as he peers down at the crowd of athletes, searching for his family (his old team…but really, that one person who matters the most).

When Hanamaki's eyes land on #6, his heart speeds up for just a second and he thinks he might break into an impish grin if #6 turns around and sends him a disapproving glare…but that #6 turns, sees him, and waves, and Hanamaki's excitement wears off. Whoops. Wrong player. So he scans the sea of white and aqua for #1 instead.

Yahaba's already staring his way when his eyes find him, and Yahaba stifles a laugh behind his hand. Dammit. He knew Hanamaki would look for the wrong jersey. Worse yet, Yahaba presses two fingers to his lips and blows his senpai a kiss because Yahaba Shigeru is a Sassy Little Shit and the only person who seems to troll Hanamaki instead of being trolled by Hanamaki. (Okay. So Matsukawa trolls him, too, but that's different. Best friends and boyfriends are two totally different concepts.)

Still, Hanamaki, cheeks entirely likely a darker shade of pink than his hair, pretends to catch said kiss in his palm, turning his head to the left while discretely pressing the kiss to his jaw—and almost missing.

Yahaba barks with laughter down on the court, and Kyoutani and Watari and the rest look at their silver-haired captain with fright because, hey, it's scary when Yahaba's this jovial. But then the respite ends, and warm up begins, and Aoba Johsai is raring to go and wipe the floor with Datekougyou here at the Interhigh prelims.

The team under Yahaba's captaincy is fantastic, no doubt about it. They lead Datekou in the first set by four points and win by three. The second set is tougher and goes into the mid-twenties but ends with Seijou's win. A triumphant cry erupts, mixing players' voices with fans', and Hanamaki's feet carry him downstairs before his mind catches up with his body.

"Not too bad this year, yeah?" Yahaba teases him out in the hallway as Seijou members catch their breath and recharge before their next match later in the day.

"Amazing," Hanamaki agrees, and he reaches for Yahaba, wanting to run his hand through the titanium-colored locks…but knowing where they are and being aware of the lack of privacy.

The new captain seems to sense this, as he leans his head to the right, near Hanamaki's hand, giving him a "Well, what are you waiting for?" expression. There's nothing in his face chastising Hanamaki for staying away after graduation despite not heading off to university. There's nothing in his impatient scowl that shows disgust at Hanamaki coming and slacking off by watching them play instead of looking for a job as he should be spending his time. There's nothing in Yahaba's eyes that screams anything but "God, it's good to see you in person, Sexy." And it makes Hanamaki chuckle and decide to hell with their audience.

"It's been a long time since I saw your smile," he breathes against Yahaba's lips, satisfied by the moan he draws from Yahaba, the sound of Kyoutani's girlish shriek at having to witness it, and the apology Watari doles out to the coaches perhaps a bit too promptly. He really has been away for far too long.

Hanayaha is always going to have a special place in my heart…
