Sneak a peek of her fic the space between me to you below: 

“Yamaguchi.” “You’re saying my name a lot.” Yamaguchi says it like a joke, but there’s a distinct shakiness in his voice. “Because I know it.” Kei closes his eyes again, thinks about his situation. How no one in volleyball club looked for Yamaguchi, how his name hadn’t come up during roll call. He spent so long wondering where Yamaguchi was, he didn’t bother paying attention to anything else. But he still should have realized. He runs his tongue over the back of his teeth. “Your best friend. Who’s your best friend?” It’s something Yamaguchi’s never called him, even when they were younger, but that doesn’t matter. Their friendship has never been the kind they had to confirm with sentimental phrases. Kei has always felt, and Yamaguchi has always known. But things are different now. Yamaguchi doesn’t know. If he has to, Kei will change, too. (If saying those words enough will make them true, Kei will say them.)

Speaking In Code

Speaking In Code - saying a "kid is big for his/her age" ain't a compliment. It's code for treating them nasty. No matter their size, they're still children. Don't be a Felicia or a Dick, say what you mean and mean what you say.

Stop telling me my kid is big for his age! First of all, you didn’t ask his age, you just assumed he was a certain age.

Stop telling me my kid is big for his age. It’s not a compliment.

Is he high on the growth percentile for height? Sure. Is he higher on the growth percentile for weight? Sure. Might he have a higher IQ? Maybe. Does he demonstrate good manners? Yes. Do you think he is more…

Characters: Yamaguchi Tadashi, Tsukishima Kei, Tsukishima Akiteru

Additional Tags: Yamaguchi Tadashi-centric, Growing Up Together, Getting Together, Mutual Pining, Jealous Tsukishima Kei - mild, yamaguchi's first crush is on akiteru, his second very brief crush is on yachi, yachi has a crush on shimizu which is mentioned in passing

Series: Part 1 of summer sour and summer sweet

Summary:

Yamaguchi’s always known a little bit about this kind of feeling; he’s seen all the movies about it, watched dramas with his mother, and while a part of him thought it was nice, it also kind of eluded him, why people went so crazy about it. Still, even though Yamaguchi never really yearned for it or anything – the only thing Yamaguchi’s really ever yearned for on television is being the black Power Ranger – maybe there’s something nice about it, finally getting to feel it.

But then again, Akiteru’s trying to make small talk with him right now and the inside of Yamaguchi’s chest is about to implode, so. Yamaguchi isn’t really sure.

Or: Three crushes, four confessions, and realizing you're in love with your best friend while random girls won't stop talking to you about how they're in love with him: Yamaguchi Tadashi and his love/hate relationship with love.

In the quiet moments when they’re in the same room, when Yamaguchi’s not paying attention to him and occupying the whole of his consciousness, the thought floats back to him. That as much as Yamaguchi’s somehow grown on him since they’ve met, the half a year where Yamaguchi forced himself into Tsukishima’s life and ingrained himself in it so deeply he can’t remember what it was like before, he’s still abnormal. Still peculiar. And still hiding something.

Tsukishima’s never been the kind of person to pry into people’s business, never understood why people would be upset by someone they care about keeping secrets if it’s harmless or not something they need to know. Whatever happened to Yamaguchi, whatever’s happening to him, if he can handle it without Kei’s help, or if he prefers to, Tsukishima is fine with it. Tsukishima will let him.

But he can’t stop himself from noticing.

Or: Three months into his friendship with Tsukishima, Yamaguchi starts bringing him lunch every day. Tsukishima pretends it isn't weird.

Summary:

Tsukishima’s turning the corner from the vending machines when he finally sees Yamaguchi, sitting alone on a bench in front of the school, basking in the sunlight like a person with nowhere else to be. Before Tsukishima realizes it, he’s already standing over him. “Where were you today?”

“Huh?” Yamaguchi looks up, and his brow furrows. “Tsukishima-kun?”

Tsukishima nearly stops cold. “Why are you… Why are you calling me that?”

“Oh, uh, sorry. Tsukishima-san, then.”

Or: Tsukishima wakes up somewhere else one morning, and Yamaguchi treats him like a stranger. He makes the best of it.
