Tobio Kageyama's thing with hugs

Part one: Winning euphoria (Nishinoya & Kageyama)

summary: Kageyama has a thing with hugs. Sure, he's touch starved enough to appreciate any form of physical affection- but there's something about hugs that does things to his chest. Things he'd never say out loud. Things that, eventually, he says anyway.

(aka. kageyama has a thing for hugs. he & the other karazuno boys realize this, after a few particular situations where each of the members hugs kageyama for the first time. based on this post)

Warnings: cussing

Okay, so in hindsight, Nishinoya realizes that perhaps jumping onto Kageyama and hugging him out of nowhere was not the brightest thing to do.

And he probably knew that much even before doing it, but he just... didn't really think, to be honest. His chest was rumbling with the excitement of having won their first match of the tournament, and his hands tightened into fists as he celebrated, shouting at the top of his lungs. He could very strongly feel the burn of his stomach, having quickly dived to save the ball before their last point, but he loved it. And so he did what he always does whenever he's excited; he jump-hugged one of their teammates.

Why Kageyama, you may ask? Why not Tanaka, who was just screaming just as loudly as him at the excitement winning? or Hinata, who was also very loud when it came to celebrating, and who was certainly very open to physical affection? Even Suga, who was also loudly cherring for them over at the bench, and who was always happy to comply whenever any of the team members wanted a hug?

Well. Perhaps Noya's first excuse would be to say that Kageyama was the closest to him at the moment. But he knew very well that, with his quickness to get from one side of the court to the other, that fact wouldn't have kept him from running over to any of the other members to hug them- as he usually did, really. He doesn't quite know what got to him then- all he knows is in that moment, feeling the raging euphoria of winning and remembering this is why he fucking loves volleyball, the person that came to his mind was Kageyama.

Kageyama, who was oh so reserved, and put on such an stupid fake act of being mean and quiet and being annoyed by his teammates. Kageyama, who worked himself to fucking shambles, who would give anything for his teammates without a second of doubt. Kageyama, genius player Kageyama, who was probably superior to any of them in terms of ability- and yet.... Kageyama, who was maybe the one who worked the hardest out of all of them to get better. To win.

Kageyama, who had taken the ball Nishinoya had barely managed to get up, and somehow turned it into the textbook definition of a perfect set for Hinata to strike, winning them the matchpoint, and allowing them to play the next game tomorrow.

So. Why Kageyama? Nishinoya couldn't really answer, if someone asked. But there was something in his heart that yelled at him to hug that stupid boy the second they won, and he always listened to his heart.

So, he went for it.

He barely registered making his way up to the setter. He jumped without even thinking about it, and his arms wrapped tightly around the other boy's neck, squeezing him and putting his whole bodyweight onto him as he hung there for a bit. A loud laugh erupted from his chest at the pure happiness of winning. His eyes had probably gotten teary as well, but he didn't bother hiding it- the sweat dripping from his face would conceal it well enough. And, honestly, he honestly just couldn't give less of a shit about it, in that moment.

All he was thinking about was how happy he was, and how, if he was really honest with himself, his happiness was partially thanks to Kageyama.

So, he just hugged him tightly. Even as the others stared at them, dumbfounded. Even as Kageyama himself looked at him in utter shock, eyes widening and hands rising up instinctively, but stopping right before doing anything- before pushing away.

It took him a few seconds to snap out of his excitement to get back on his feet and look up at the setter, a smile still on his face and arms still wrapped around him as he was hit by the realization of what he was doing.

He froze.

He wasn't sure if he imagined it, but he thinks he might've seen Kageyamas eyes tear up as well.

Right before he could let go and blurt out a nervous apologize, or some sort of joke to brush off his sudden show of affection, the libero felt a pair of warm, strong arms wrapping around him, ever so gently. He almost thought he could feel the other's hands shake slightly for a second. He seemed unsure- almost careful. Like Nishinoya would suddenly slip away if he hugged him just slightly too tight.

The look Kageyama gave him was mostly unreadable. There was something deep within his eyes. Something like fear, or like fondness. The setter dared to give him a small, shy smile. They looked at each other for what must've been barely a few seconds, but Nishinoya felt like they stared into each other for minutes- like he could suddenly see into Kageyama's mind. Or perhaps it was his heart.

Whatever it was, the reality was it only lasted a second, before he burst out laughing in a mix of happiness, excitement and surprise. He hugged Kageyama even tighter and the setter let out a small gasp as Noya pressed his face against his chest. He could feel Kageyama's heart beating loudly, and it almost matched the loudness of his own heartbeat.

And just like that, Nishinoya gave Kageyama the first hug he'd ever recieved from any of his teammates.

Not the last one, though. That was for sure.
