When Kageyama woke up, he could immediately tell that he wasn't in the orphanage anymore. The bed was much softer and it was too quiet to be the orphanage. His first instinct was to panic but he could feel the outline of someone sleeping next to him.

As Kageyama tried to quietly climb out of the bed, he froze when the other person sat up. He felt an immediate sense of relief when he realized that the unknown person was Oikawa.

He watched as the other climbed out of bed and told him good morning before dragging him to the bathroom. Kageyama silently observed as Oikawa explained what toothbrushes were whose and which shampoo worked the best.

The next stop on their house tour was the kitchen. Iwaizumi greeted both of them before handing them bananas and bowls of cereal.

After breakfast, they headed to the living room to talk about their plans for the day. While Oikawa and Iwaizumi argued over whether Kageyama should be homeschooled or enrolled at Aoba Joshai with Oikawa, Kageyama was getting a bit overwhelmed.

Finally, he spoke up. "Uh, what's going on?" He immediately wished he had kept his mouth shut when both Iwaizumi and Oikawa turned to stare at him.

Iwaizumi opened his mouth to say something but stopped when he remembered that Kageyama had been asleep when they brought him home. Oikawa had no such reservations. "You fell asleep so Iwa-chan signed the papers and we brought you home." Kageyama was shocked. "You actually adopted me?" He was repeating this over and over in his head while trying to get used to the idea.

Meanwhile, Iwaizumi was shocked and angry over something completely different. "Iwa-chan!? Where did that come from!" Oikawa shrugged while grinning. "Iwaizumi-san takes to long to say. And Iwa-chan sounds so much cuter!"

Kageyama watched as Iwaizumi growled and started chasing Oikawa around the room. They went over the couch and under the table before Iwaizumi finally caught up and managed to tackle Oikawa to the floor and start tickling him. He didn't stop until Oikawa was screaming that he surrendered in between giggles. Finally, they both collapsed on the carpet exhausted.

Kageyama had been observing from the couch this entire time so he was caught by surprise when Iwaizumi grabbed his ankle and pulled him off the couch forcing him to join in their impromptu cuddle session on the carpet.

At first Kageyama wriggled around, trying to get away. He wasn't big on physical affection. Soon though, he discovered it was useless. Iwaizumi's arms were hugging him and it seemed like they were made of iron. Also, Oikawa was pretty much laying on top of him, so moving was impossible. Finally giving up, Kageyama held still.

The first thing he noticed was how warm and comfortable this felt. The second was that both Oikawa and Iwaizumi were being uncharacteristically still and quiet. After waiting a few more minutes to see if they would move, Kageyama carefully twisted so he could see their faces.

They were both fast asleep, tired from their late night and early morning antics. Since he couldn't exactly get up, Kageyama decided that the best course of action was to sleep with them. With his nose buried in Oikawa's hair and Iwaizumi's arms wrapped around his stomach, he fell asleep feeling safer than he had in a long time.

When all three of them finally woke up again, it was almost four p.m. Since they had slept through lunch, Iwaizumi decided that they shou go out for an early dinner and to celebrate Kageyama joining the family.

After talking about it for a while, they decided on a restaurant that was about a thirty minute drive away. When they arrived at the restaurant, a waitress directed them to a table and took their drink orders. " Your server will be out in a minute with menus."

Iwaizumi, Kageyama, and Oikawa talked about random things as they sipped their drinks and waited for their server. Eventually, a dark haired waitress walked out of the kitchen. "What can I get for you... YOU BRAT! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?! I TOLD YOU I NEVER WANTED TO SEE YOUR FACE AGAIN!"

As the woman continued her shouting, Iwaizumi and Oikawa were shocked speechless. Neither of them had noticed the way Kageyama had tensed u as soon as he saw the waitress come out of the kitchen.

By now, she was shaking Kageyama back and forth by his hair while screaming about how everything was his fault. Kageyama hadn't screamed or said a word, but there were silent tears streaming down his cheeks.

Seeing Kageyama's tears seemed to snap Oikawa and Iwaizumi out of the spell they had been under. Iwaizumi forced the woman to let go while Oikawa went to go check on Kageyama.

Although Oikawa couldn't find any injuries, apart from a bit of bruising on Kageyama's neck and back, he was more worried about the fact that Kageyama was refusing to say a single word. He just sat there and sobbed quietly into Oikawa's shoulder.

By the time the restaurant manager came out and took the waitress off Iwaizumi's hands, Iwaizumi had had more than enough. After informing the manager that he was going to report this, he picked up Kageyama, who was curled into Oikawa's lap, and headed home.

When they got home, Iwaizumi carried Kageyama inside and placed him on the bed, telling Oikawa to stay with him. Iwaizumi walked into the living room and dialed the police station. "Hello, this is Sergeant Iwaizumi Hajime. I'd like to report a case of assault." After giving them the details, as well as the address of the restaurant and a description of the woman, he ended the call.

Checking in on the boys, he was relieved to find them both asleep. Personally, he was worried about how this incident would affect Kageyama's integration into the family. He couldn't think of a worse time for this to have happened. Kageyama was still felling insecure about his place in the family and because of this he might not want to be a part of their family at all!

Just before Iwaizumi could talk himself into a panic attack, he got a reply to the text he had sent Daichi, his chief of police. It read, "In response to the questions you asked, yes, she has been arrested, and yes, we were able to I.D. her. Her name is Kageyama Makoto."
