Serve at First Sight (Kageyama Tobio x F!Reader)
"I bet I can..." Hinata mumbled and narrowed his eyes at him.
"Hah?" Kageyama glared back. "What did you just say?"
"I'm not good at setting. BUT I BET I CAN HIT THE LONGEST AND FASTEST SERVE!"
"IS THAT A CHALLENGE?"
"YOU WANNA GO NOW?"
"Uh... Kageyama, Hinata, Stop messing around or else you'll get an earful from Daichi-san." Yamaguchi tries to mediate the situation. The last time the idiotic duo did something stupid, all the first years had to run extra laps. And he was not up for that today.
"No use talking to idiots Yamaguchi." Tsukki sneered. "They have an IQ capacity of a teaspoon."
Hinata stood at the line of the court, deciding to go first. Throwing the ball into the air, he jumped as high as he could. As if he were a crow that leaped into the sky. His ball managed to land a good one meter away from line of the opposite side. A loud bang resonating the court and he beamed smugly at his tall opponent. Kageyama had a ball ready in hands as he took Hinata's place. Itching to outperformed the record set by the orange-head. Closing his eyes, he briefly replayed Oikawa's diabolical jump serve from their previous practice match. He knew he was a hundred years too early to be able to do that. Doesn't mean he won't try his luck though.
With a deep exhale, he took flight. Blocking out all sounds surrounding him, save that of his squeaking shoes and the volleyball as he slapped it forward. The stinging sensation felt on his hand causing him to grin. Not quite like Oikawa's, but still powerful. This is it, it will definitely plunge further than Hinata's. And it did. The ball flew pass that one meter mark. And hit a person. Kageyama's eyes blinked twice before the situation finally seeped through his thick skull. He had hit someone's head! Suddenly he could hear his surroundings again. Hinata panicked scream. Yamaguchi running towards the unfortunate human being who fell to the ground. Tsukki trying not to laugh at this slapstick comedy.
Kageyama sprinted towards the person. A hundred thoughts running through his mind. Is the person alright? Is he going to get in trouble with Daichi for this? Where are the third years anyway? Most importantly, when was that person there? How is it he did not notice them? What were they doing there in the first place? Surely no one would actually collapsed from that hit, right? He stood behind Yamaguchi who was trying to communicate with the seemingly unconscious person. And that was when Kageyama noticed, the person was a girl. A petite girl. He kneeled beside Yamaguchi. She seemed to be a little pale.
"Hello?" Yamaguchi tapping her shoulder. "Excuse me, can you hear me?"
No reply.
"KAGEYAMA KILLED SOMEONE!" Hinata hollered.
"What are you going to do now Kageyama?" Despite knowing that she only passed out, Tsukki decided to humour Hinata.
"I'll take her to the nurse's office." Immediately he carried her and jogged out of the court. Hoping not to run into anyone. Especially Daichi.
He couldn't help but glance at her face every three seconds. Wondering if she will wake up midway. But she didn't and that worried him more. If it weren't for her soft faint breaths he would have thought that he actually committed manslaughter with his jump serve. Besides, she has such a small frame. He was afraid if he really did break her. Kageyama held her closer to his body. Noticing how she fit snugly in his arms. And when looked closely, she's actually really cute. A blush spread quickly all over his face. What was he thinking? He doesn't even know her.
~~~~~~~~~~
(Y/n) blinked slowly. Feeling slightly dazed.
She woke up late today, all because of that stupid extra Japanese literature homework that had to be submitted during first period. And because she woke up late, she skipped breakfast. She wanted to get something during lunch, but had to drop by the school library to return some books that were due today. Well what do you know, apparently everyone needed to return their books today. If she had known she would've asked her friends to at least get her melon bread. She had about 10 minutes left before lunch ended, but she ran into her senior and was reminded to submit the club activities report today.
It was so hard to focus on classes for the rest of the afternoon. She drank lots of water in hopes to delay the impending dizziness. It was somewhat working. She only needed to wait until clubs and activities time. She'll get a sugary drink from the vending machine, then tell the club leader that she's going to head home early. But karma really had to be a bitch today. Her wallet was not in her bag. (Y/n) dreaded the fact that she might have dropped it somewhere. Searching for her wallet with this now nasty migraine is really going to be such a pain. That is until she suddenly remembered she left it in her drawer at home. She had forgotten about it amidst the rush.
(Y/n) crouched in front of the vending machine. What are the gods playing at exactly. Is it really so hard to get a single bite? Is this karma for denying Mr. Snuggles his treat last week? Well it was not her fault that he knocked over her pudding off the table! She was on the verge of tears when she heard the sound of volleyballs. Oh right, the vending machine was sort of close to the volleyball court... Didn't Yachi say she was recently the co-manager for Karasuno's volleyball club along with that beautiful senior Kiyoko. There is hope. She only needed a little money to get that small carton of drink.
She stood up quickly and regretted it. God, this migraine is killing her. With every ounce of determination she had left, she dragged her feet towards the court. Swaying a little every now and then. The sounds were getting louder, The ball hitting the court, shoes squeaking and people yelling? This is a good thing, it meant that she was getting closer. This is also a bad thing, because it's splitting her skull. Everything around her blurred as she entered the hall. Shit, where is Yachi? She took a few more steps before she felt a hard impact on her head. Dear lord that hurts like hell. And she lost all control of her body before everything went black.
"Oi." a gruff voice distracted her thoughts.
She sat up immediately. Hitting her head on the bed post in the process. She has realized by now that she must have passed out and someone from the volleyball club took her to the nurses office. It must have been this boy sitting beside her. But that still didn't mean she wouldn't be caught off guard. She has always been somewhat intimidated by the male species. Especially those tall towering ones that had to bend a little to talk to her. It's one of the unfortunate things one has to endure being 4'10 and having a small frame. People often joked that she could fit in a suitcase. Though seeing her other shorter friends did brought her pleasure, it still doesn't change the fact that a lot of people around her were giants.
"Idiot."
"Excuse me?" she glared. What's the big idea calling her an idiot out of nowhere. He was the one who surprised her. Sitting on a stool at her bedside, ain't that too close for a stranger, sir?  Who is he again? The volleyball club is pretty popular here in Karasuno after they managed to get into the finals of Inter high recently. It was unfortunate that they lost to Aoba Johsai, but everyone acknowledged what a monster the school was. Yachi said everyone felt down but it didn't dampened their spirit, for their next chance will be the Spring Tournament.
"S-sorry." the guy replied.
Dark eyes darting away from her face. She could make out an intimidating look on his face. Eyebrows furrowing sternly. Lips set on a grim line. Yet his cheeks flushed. Or was it because of the orange hue from the setting sun (she couldn't really tell), which also made his black hair glow. It dawned upon (y/n) that if he could just smooth away his frown, he would be handsome (she thinks). And if only he weren't being gruffy. Wait a minute. Tall volleyball player, black hair, intimidating frowning face but yet somehow still good looking?
"I'm Kageyama Tobio-"
"I know."
Silence... Well that was awkward.
She cleared her throat. "I'm (L/n) (Y/n). From Class 5. Um, Yachi's friend."
"Oh." Shoot. He didn't know she was Yachi's friend. What will the manager say about this. "I'm sorry. That my jump serve knocked you out."
"No no no! I was actually a little hypoglycemic. So your uh, jump serve was just the final nail in the coffin." Damn, she knew that getting hit by any ball was going to hurt. But the ball just now, it felt like it could tear her head off. Or maybe that's just an exaggeration of being starved the whole day. She realized his expression went from frowning to horrifying. "N-not that it will literally be the final nail to my coffin! It was just an expression. Maybe not a good one. Sorry I'm just bad with words when it comes to strangers. I mean not that you're an absolute stranger. It's just that- I'm sorry, I'm blabbering too much."
"Not at all!" he yelled. Ah, he got too animated. He didn't understand why. But he just thought everything about this girl is cute. From her petite stature that makes him want to shield her from the wind. To her way of talking that showed just how shy and awkward she was as how it is with him. Trying to reassure him that it was fine. He couldn't understand this sudden grip in his heart and the tingling sensation at his fingertips. Though maybe it was because he hasn't touch the volleyball for a few hours now.
Another awkward silence ensues.
"Anyways," (Y/n) was still a bit shy. She was after all talking to one of the most popular boys at school. But seeing as how he is now, she thought she could loosen up her guard a bit. "Have you seen my glasses?"
"You wear glasses?"
They rushed back together to the volleyball court. Yachi attacked her with a hug as she lamented about the news she heard from her fellow peers. Daichi scolding him to be careful next time whilst Tanaka giving him his infamous gangster glare. Hinata coming forward with his head down as he presented (Y/n)'s broken glasses. He accidently stepped on them when he was panicking, though he only realised it when she was sent to the nurse's office. Her glasses must have fallen off her head when she got hit. That hard huh. Really God, you want to test her that much today. Fine, she'll apologize to Mr. Snuggles when she gets home.
Unbeknownst to her, Kageyama felt even worse than earlier. His ball caused her to knocked out, and now it even knocked off the glasses from her head and broke it. Stuttering on his words, he apologized again. Hands balled into a tight fist. He just felt so bad. Suga noticed how dejected he sounded. But he also noticed how pink his ears were. Oh? Well even if it wasn't what he thought, there was no harm in... light teasing. Besides, they'd looked adorable together, no?
"If you really feel guilty. Then you should walk her home today." slinging his arm over Kageyama's shoulder, Suga tried to keep a neutral expression. Well there was a slight smirk, but he tried. "What if she falls down on her way home? Or run into a pole?"
"I am short-sighted Sugawara-senpai. Not blind." (Y/n) said through gritted teeth. Really these eyesight jokes should be old by now. "Besides, I will need to stop by the optic shop to have new ones made."
"All the more for him to accompany you. It will get dark soon. Might be dangerous to be walking alone with such bad eyesight."
"Oh no, I wouldn't want to burden-"
"Let's go." Kageyama interrupted. And when she declined again, he argued back. "Stop being a stubborn idiot. You still haven't eaten, you can't see well and you're so light that people can just easily carry you away."
Did he just called her an idiot for the second time in the short the period they have known each other. How rude! Not that his points were invalid. He was right. But boy does this person lack delicacy. In the end, she agreed to let him accompany her. He bought two cartons of milk from the vending machine. One for each of them, and they set off on their merry way.
~~~~~~~~~~
"No- Okay. Once again. Osmosis only works with solvents. Simple diffusion, both solvents and solutes. So in osmosis, solvents will move from low solute concentration-" (Y/n) stopped explaining when she noticed how Kageyama's brows were almost touching. His lips formed a small pout. "You know what, we have been revising for more than an hour. Let's take 5. Then continue for another hour. It's getting late and although my mum likes you, my dad wouldn't like you being in my room for too long."
Ever since that day where he sent her home, she began hanging out more with Yachi and the volleyball club. Not that she never hung out with her close friend, it's just that (y/n) felt out of place when she mingles with unfamiliar crowds. But now that every member knew her as the girl who got hit by Kageyama's jump serve, that became the basis of her acquaintanceship with the club and she got to hang out with Yachi more. And before she realized it, Kageyama has just been around her circle. Always there. Heck he has been walking her home more often now that even her mother likes him. Then they became just friends. Or she hoped it stayed that way, because she noticed her emotions began crossing unknown territories.
(Y/n) has come to learn a few things about Kageyama Tobio over the course of their friendship. One, he is an obsessed volleyball freak. A prodigy people say. But what (Y/n) sees is a person consumed by passion for the things he loves. And that isn't necessarily bad. Two, he can be quite childish. He fails to control his frustration which later comes off the wrong way whenever he expresses them. But really he means no harm, because when he is happy, he expresses them genuinely. And three, he is quite sensitive. He may want to show that he didn't care, but he actually takes things to heart. He may feel down about a comment, but he will learn to improve from it.
"Sorry."
"What for?"
"For having to teach an idiot like me."
"Oh stop it. Everyone is good and bad at something. We can't all be the perfect prodigy. That's just how things are. You may be bad at studying, but with your volleyball skills I bet you can represent Japan one day." noticing his eyes lit up, she continued. "So in order for you to attend your camp. Let's just try our best okay?"
Kageyama nodded. It was a little embarrassing to have her comforting him like this. But at the same time it brings him immense joy. When he first met her, he would get flutters looking at her cute appearance. Now, he just feels all warm and fuzzy whenever she talks to him. He liked that she didn't judge him or anyone she's ever met. She would scold him sometimes, but at the same time explained her reasoning. And he really appreciated that, how patient she was with him. It does make him guilty, but at the same time he wants to start behaving better. Is this what Suga meant when he said he has a crush on (Y/n)? Kageyama doesn't really know. He will need time to analyze everything.
"(L/n), do you have time during our Spring Tournament?" he tried looking anywhere else but her face.
"You want me to cheer on the club? Sure thing."
"Yes." Hearing her reply made him smile. With a steady gaze he stared straight into her eyes. "Watch me play, (y/n). I'll show you a really strong serve."
(Y/n) could only smile back as she felt butterflies in her stomach. "Then we better get back to studying."

Went for Breakfast, Returned With Ice Cream a RWBY Fanfic
Chapter 1
: My Ice Cream Fell!                    VelvetxCocoxNeo             Summary:            Coco Adel and Velvet Scarlatina are out on a date when an attempted robbery leads to them bringing a cute girl home?
 Notes: 
Cross Posted from my Ao3 Account:   http://archiveofourown.org/works/10306418/chapters/22793141 Updates will always happen there first.
I’m so sorry I’m this bad at naming things.
So this is my first fic, it's also the first time I've written anything since like highschool years ago. And that was terrible english class stuff so really I apologize for how long chapters will take and how bad it might be. I'd really appreciate any and all pointers.
Also shout outs to my friend for being amazing and helping me edit this and putting up with me when I finished it late one night after staying up way too late.
Also boy. Neo is 4'10 with heels. Without she's probably like 4'9 or 4'8. Meanwhile Coco is like 6'0. That height difference sounds great for cuddling ;3
It was a bright and sunny morning in Vale as Coco and her girlfriend Velvet waltzed through the streets. Coco was radiating fashion in her usual attire of a corset, aviators and beret. Meanwhile Velvet had been talked into wearing a lighter sun dress for their date. She wore a cute, brown, high neckline one-piece that was almost just too short which matched adorably with her black thigh highs. A cool breeze brought about a slight chill as fall descended upon the city;  however the two paid it little mind as the morning sun cut through the chill, warming them enough for the breeze for feel refreshing instead of biting.
They had finally gotten some alone time together. Yatsuhashi was off doing his morning meditation routine with Ren, and Fox was sleeping in. Using this opportunity, the two had decided to head out to a small café for breakfast and were chatting as they returned to the airships. Walking down a pleasant street lined with brightly painted shops Coco exclaimed loudly, “Oh my Oum, those carrot muffins were amazing!”
“My mixed berry was quite good as well; you could really taste how fresh it was.” Velvet replied with a smile. “Hey um, this is might be kind of awkward to ask and...  I’m not sure if you’re okay with it but I’d like... I’d like...” she anxiously rambled on getting quieter and making less and less sense as she went.
“Woah woah, BunBun calm down. Everything’s okay, take your time. I’m here, what’s wrong?” Coco said, putting her hands on Velvets shoulders and rubbing them slowly trying to help her timid girlfriend calm down.
“Well” Velvet replied sheepishly. “I was wondering... if maybe... wecouldholdhands” she blurted out blushing heavily, ears drooping slightly and trying to bury her face in Coco’s shoulder to hide the redness spreading across her cheeks.
“Getting bold there aren’t you babe? So lewd, wanting to hold hands in public? The scandal!” Coco laughed before moving her handbag to her right shoulder so she could grab Velvet's hand with her left. “Of course I would love to hold your hand. Thanks for asking.” Coco continued as Velvet grasped her back, pouting at her partners teasing.
“Aww babe you’re so cute when you pout. Then again you’re always cute.” Coco said giving her a quick peck on the cheek.
“Stop that.” Velvet said giggling slightly as she punched Coco’s arm lightly with her free hand, blushing brightly again.
The two squeezed slightly and set off again, oblivious to the newcomer following closely behind. Dressed in a dirty white sweater and brown oversized pants she walked slowly keeping her hood up to cover her face and hair. Eyeing the expensive looking bag hanging over Coco’s unoccupied shoulder, she slowly mirrored their pace waiting for her chance.
The two meandered along approaching a fork in the road the left leading up towards the airship docks and the right leading away towards the wharf district and its many twisting side streets. Seizing the opportunity the small girl made her move, tackling Coco and grabbing the bag with one swift motion before yanking it off and running down towards the sound of the waves.
Velvet reacted first, jumping past Coco and dashing off after the girl calling for her to stop while Coco followed closely behind. Despite being faster the two huntresses had trouble catching the young girl who knew the area like the back of her hand.
“Just my luck”, thought Neo as she ducked and weaved through the narrow alleys and side streets of Vale’s wharf district. “They just HAD to be students from Beacon.” Grimacing to herself as her stomach churned she took another left through a back alley glancing behind her to see a set of bunny ears ominously getting closer through the sparse crowds that dotted the streets behind.
If it was any other day she wouldn’t have been worried with fighting one, maybe two huntresses in training. However, not eating for a few days had left her weaker than she expected. That was the whole reason she’d gotten into this mess in the first place. She hadn’t been able to get a decent mark in a while and had run out of Lien. The fancy high class looks had been too much and tempted her into a far more direct attempt than she would have usually dare try.
“I guess my best shot is to just grab what I can from the bag and ditch it, maybe it’ll slow them dow—“  Neo’s thoughts were cut off abruptly as she unlatched the bag only to have it very unexpectedly start growing in size, changing into a gold plated gatling gun. Not reacting fast enough Neo lost her grip dropping the gun in front of her, taking her own legs with it and hurtling to the ground at top speed.
Scrambling to her feet all thoughts of the bag gone Neo tried her to best to scurry away, fear of being caught and too sick and hungry to fight back propelled her like a rocket. Unfortunately for her it was already too late, only making it one step before a hand wrapped around her left wrist and yanked her back spinning her around to face her captors.
Looking up in distress Neo’s eye were wide with fright, turning a bright white as she stared into the brown of the faunus holding her arm. Surprisingly she didn’t see anger in the other girl’s eyes, but what looked more like worry. Glancing past the rabbit faunus to her partner who appeared to be cradling the gun on her knees and inspecting it for damage muttering to herself something that Neo couldn’t quite make out. Neo was suddenly brought back to reality as she realized her captor was talking to her now, her adrenaline releasing as she sunk into cold terror.
Neo stood flabbergasted as she listen to the faunus girl ramble away, apparently mistaking her for a young child.
“Do you know how dangerous that was young girl? What are you even doing out by yourself without a parent!? Are you a run away? When’s the last time you ate something? Do you have shelter?”
Neo couldn’t hold it in any longer and began to laugh silently to herself shoulders heaving at how ridiculous it was that this girl she had just attempted to steal from not only seemed to think she was a young child, but was also worried about her. Feebly she tried to stop the giggles and shake her head that no, she wasn’t a child and that she was okay. Unfortunately the other girl seemed to misunderstand completely.
“Oh you poor thing, you don’t have anywhere to go or to eat? No wonder you tried to steal someone’s money. Although that doesn’t excuse you young girl, how would you like us to get you something to eat?”
“Why not bring her back to the dorms for a shower as well; she looks like she hasn’t had one in quite a while.” The girl with the beret and aviators joined in now. Walking up and laying a hand on the other girl’s shoulders. “Of course we won’t force you, everything worked out so I have no hard feelings”
Taking a moment to consider how long it had been since she’d had a real meal or the chance to clean herself Neo slowly nodded in affirmation grinning slyly. “Who knew being mistaken for a kid could be so useful sometimes?” She thought to herself as the other two introduced themselves, one Coco Adel and Velvet Scarlatina and started leading her towards the airship port. Her stomach growled faintly as she followed behind, examining her two “helpers”. Blushing furiously upon realizing how much taller Coco was and how close her head was to her rear end. She ended up staring far longer than she would like to admit, thankfully however Velvet gave her an out pulling her up in-between the two of them instead of letting her trail behind. “This might have been an awful mistake” She thought attempting to hide her beet red face in the dirty hood of her sweater.
