Kenma sighed, slowly running his hands through Hinata's orange hair. Hinata must of cried himself to sleep that night.

He felt his phone "ding" softly, the notification for a text.

Kenma looked down at his phone, to see it was a text from Kageyama. Wasn't that the kid that had helped Hinata before?

Sighing again, Kenma opened the text;

Kageyama: Hey, I'm worried about Hinata. I was wondering if you could help me.

Kenma quirked an eyebrow. Did Kageyama really care about Hinata?

Kenma: What would you like me to do?

Once it was officially sent Kenma went back to relaxing, and twirling his fingers through the orange locks.

"Ding!" His phone went off again, catching his eye.

He immediately unlocked his phone and looked at the message Kageyama sent him;

Kageyama: Just keep me updated, not in a stalker type of way.

Kenma smirked at the text message. Kageyama really did care about Hinata.

Hinata always told him that 'no one cared about him' or that 'no one wanted him'.

Kageyama: Please don't tell him though.

Kenma frowned.

Great. Now he couldn't even tell Hinata .

"What are you frowning about," came a questioning voice below him. He looked down to see Hinata looking up, straight at him. Kenma gave a small smile. He really did love Hinata.

"I'm not frowning, it's just my resting face," he laughed, giving Hinata's nose a quick pinch.

"Alright, alright," Hinata laughed, grabbing the hand on his nose and pulling it away. He sat up and looked at Kenma's phone. "Who are you texting," he asked, trying to lean over his shoulder and see.

Kenma quickly pulled back, laughing slightly. He couldn't let Hinata see his phone with this conversation in it.

Then it "ding"ed again...

"Really, who are you texting," he asked, trying to grab the phone now. Kenma pushed him down gently so he landed on his back on the couch.

"It's none of your concern," he smiled, quickly checking the message.

Kageyama: So... is it okay?

Kenma typed back a message, quick as he could;

Kenma: Yes, yes! I'll do it!

Before closing his phone, he made sure to delete all the texts. Couldn't let Hinata finding those.

"Was it your boyfriend," Hinata asked, wiggling his eyebrows and laughing slightly. Kenma's face grew red with embarrassment, and he flicked Hinata's cheek.

"How dare you, you know I'm not dating anyone. And if I was you would know," he laughed, as he watched Hinata rub his face.

"Alright, alright," Hinata joked, waving his hands in the air in defeat. "I'm hungry though, can we please eat."

Kenma thought for a moment, putting a hand under his chin.

"Well," he dragged out, looking at Hinata. "My mom may have left me some homemade cookies," he laughed, seeing Hinata's face light up with happiness.

"Can we eat them? " he asked, almost jumping off the couch.

"Of course!"

They walked into the kitchen, being greeted with fresh cookies on the counter.

Hinata almost bounced off the wall at the sight of them, taking two and shoving both into his mouth.

"Are your parents worried," Kenma asked as he took one and nibbled at it.

He saw Hinata's eyes droop, his smile turning into a frown.

"Probably not, they wouldn't care if I died."

"That's not true, they would be devastated if you died."

Hinata slammed his fist onto the counter, making all the cookies on the plate jump slightly.

"They wouldn't," he barked, making Kenma's eyes widen. Hinata has never snapped at him, though he'd seen him yell at the bullies before.

Kenma wasn't very popular either, so he got bullied a lot as well. When Hinata would sometimes go and pick him up after school you'd see Hinata rush in, screaming at them if he ever saw it with his own eyes. But never had Hinata yelled at Kenma.

"I could kill myself tonight and no one would fucking care," Hinata cried.

Before he knew it, he felt arms around him, giving off a comforting warmth.

"Don't say that," Kenma mumbled, giving him a tightsqueeze. "Please don't."

"I'm sorry," Hinata mumbled, snuggling into Kenma's chest. "You are such a good friend, and I'm so shit."

Kenma laughed slightly, resting his cheek on Hinata's head, "How about the time you punched that bully right in the face when he called me a fag?"

Hinata looked up and gave a toothy smile, "Oh! I remember that. I was a real super hero then."

"Hinata," Kenma smiled, giving him a soft pat on the head. "You've always been a hero to me," he murmured, feeling tears prick in his eyes.

"I can't wait until you are older," Kenma continued, feeling the tears fall down his face. "And you can leave your parents and love whoever you want."

"Kenma," Hinata whispered, letting go of Kenma for a moment, before enveloping him in a huge bear hug. "You're the best, you know that, right?"

Kenma nodded, returning the hug, before checking the clock; 10:53.

"Is it safe for you to go home," Kenma asked, looking up at Hinata with concern.

Hinata smiled, "Of course! Don't worry Kenma, I'll be fine!"

Kenma knew he could trust Hinata, Hinata always had his back. He let go of Hinata and nodded slightly.

"Okay, talk to you tomorrow."

"Alright, and thank you, Kenma," he said, giving Kenma a nod back. He turned around, and left without another word.

Hinata took a deep breath before opening the door with the keys he held in his hand.

Looking around, he noticed it was quiet, and no one was in sight. Letting out a small victory cheer, he scampered up the stairs and closed his door. Once he was alone, he went straight to his computer.

Starting it up, he noticed a bunch of messages from from someone. All from Kageyama... asking if he was okay.

Hinata felt tears forming in his eyes, as he responded.

Hinata: Sorry, I just got home. Yes, I am fine!

Hinata thought for a while before quickly adding;

Hinata: Thank you for your concern!

Kageyama: That's good to hear, and don't worry about it.
Kageyama: It's late, you should get to bed.

Hinata could feel his eyes drooping, he was tired. Hinata nodded slightly to the screen, until he realized that Kageyama couldn't see him and quickly typed a quick response as his cheeks burned with embarrassment.

Hinata: Yea, I will! Good night!
Kageyama: Good night, Hinata.

Hinata woke up to the sound of someone knocking on his door. Getting up slightly, he looked over to see his mom and standing there, smiling slightly.

"Hinata, dear, your father and I have news for you, please come downstairs," she said quietly, as Hinata nodded and followed her downstairs.

There sat his father, eating some cereal and reading the newspaper. He looked up quick, and saw Hinata, before looking back down at his paper.

"Well," Hinata started, standing by the table, on the other side so he was opposite of his parents. His mom put a hand on her husband's shoulder and smiled at Hinata.

"You're going to be a big brother," she said happily.

Hinata felt his whole world go dark. Him. A big brother?

He couldn't even please his parents for who he was, how could he please a younger sibling?

"Are you serious," he asked, looking back and forth between his parents. The smile on his mom face never left, and he knew it was real.

"So that means you'r going to have to be more responsible, and be a good role model for this little sibling," his father comment, making it sound like a rude remark.

"I don't have to do anything, this child isn't my problem. But," Hinata snapped, facing his dad. "I'll accept this child no matter who they are, I'll accept them better than both of you did combined. Just watch." And with that, Hinata stomped up the stairs, hearing his father slam his newspaper on the table.

"Damn that no good child, if only he was normal he could actually be accepted," he yelled, making sure Hinata heard.

Once Hinata was in his room, he slammed the door shut, and whimpered slightly.

He didn't know what to do now. He couldn't go to his friends, as he always did. He needed to learn to fix situations himself.

So, he decided to do nothing. He laid in his bed and let negativity take over him. His mom would come in and ask if he wanted anything to eat. He'd grunt a no.

Once it was dinner time, his mother had enough.

"Hinata, sitting there will do nothing. If you want to prove your dad wrong, you have to go out and do it," she said, sitting at the edge of his bed and running a hand through his hair.

He then sat up and looked at his mom, a frown forming on his face.

"I know, but what can I do, I can't even drive. How can I fix that old man's mind," Hinata muttered, rubbing the back of his neck.

His mom giggled, "I'm sure you will figure it out. You are strong."

Hinata smiled, he knew he was rude to his mom, but she still supported him. Once he came out as gay though, he knew that would be the end of the support from his whole family.

They just wanted a normal boy, who went outside, played sports, had many friends. Not someone who hangs out on the computer all day, his dad always complained about it.

Once his mom left the room, he hopped on the computer.

Hinata: Guys, I have big news!

Tsukishima: You grew an inch

Kenma: You aren't a virgin anymore?

Hinata face palmed in real life. What did his friends thing he did in his free time? And if he ever saw Tsukishima in real life, he'd punch him right in the face, breaking his stupid glasses.

Hinata: No! I'm going to be a big brother! My mom is pregnant.

Tsukishima: You? A big brother? She's probably going to be taller than you by the time she is your age.

Kenma: Shut up Tsukki, and Hinata,
awesome job. But, being a big brother is a lot of responsibility.

Hinata: I know! But, I think I can do it.

Nishinoya: Good luck! Your upperclassman Nishinoya will help you if you ever need it.

Hinata smiled. He didn't deserve these friends, but he got them.

And he was lucky, lucky he could have such great friends in his life, he couldn't be anymore thankful.

Kageyama: That's awesome. You have to send us pictures when they are born!

Tsukishima: You don't even know what Hinata looks like, but you want to see his baby sibling? Pervert...

Kageyama: I didn't mean it like that!

Nishinoya: Why don't we all video chat now?

Kenma: Sure!

Tsukishima: I'm in

Kageyama: Alright

Hinata gulped, video chat? Oh no...

He'd actually see Kageyama, and Kageyama would see him.

What if he thought he was ugly or gross?

Hinata shook his head, no. He had to do this. This may be his only chance to see Kageyama face to face.

Nodding silently, he typed his reply.

Hinata: Let's do it!

And soon enough, a call popped up. All he had to do was accept it. Accept it.

Accept it and he would see Kageyama's face.

Three... two... one...

He pushed down on the mouse to click accept video call.

And then there were his friends, and one person he didn't recognize.

He had black hair, dark as a crow but it brought out his eyes. His bright colored eyes. It was like they were staring into each others eyes, face to face...

Oh god, he was hot.

Boop Boop! Hello! Sorry this took so long. Honestly, life has been super busy!

I'm also glad so many of you ACTUALLY like this story! I made it up one day, and I didn't think many people would like it. Glad people enjoy it, haha!

Anyways, thanks to my beta again for fixing my stupid errors, I make too many of those in school
