The gym was full of noise, but for Kenma, only the repetitive click of his console buttons existed. Even so, he occasionally glanced up… always to the same place: you, chatting and laughing with Lev, who kept telling you exaggerated stories while waving his arms around like a windmill. Kenma frowned slightly. It wasn't his style to interfere or bother anyone. But he didn't like what he was seeing either. What's wrong? Kuroo asked, appearing out of nowhere with his feline smile. "Nothing," Kenma replied without looking up. Of course… nothing. That's why you haven't leveled up in five minutes.

Kenma gripped the console tighter. You continued laughing with Lev, while Kenma let out a sigh that he tried to disguise as tiredness. Kuroo watched him with amusement You know, you could go and talk to him. "I'm busy," Kenma muttered. With a game you already know by heart. … Or are you jealous?

Kenma remained still. "No," she finally said. "It's just... Lev is noisy. And annoying." But it didn't bother you yesterday. "Today, yes," he replied, avoiding looking in your direction. Finally, when Lev took your hand to show you something on his phone, Kenma put the console aside without thinking. He stood up, walked towards you, and without warning, stood right between you and Lev.

"Is something wrong, Kenma?" you asked, surprised. "Come on," he said, without looking at you much. "I need you to help me with something." With what? With… uh… a mission. In my game. Lev opened his eyes Can't you do that without your partner? Kenma looked at him seriously. No, I literally need it. He didn't know why he said that. But he said it. You smiled, moving closer to him. Were you jealous? Kenma turned red from ear to ear N-no. I just needed help. Sure? Yes, he lied shamelessly. As you took his console and sat down next to him, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. In his own way, without ever admitting it, Kenma just wanted you close.
