— 🪼 TSUKISHIMA KEI!!

They had been dating for a while now, yet Tsukishima wasn't one for sweet words or the kind of cheesy things that could feel cloying—the things couples usually do. Even so, he truly loved you and made up stupid excuses just to be by your side, as he always believed that actions spoke louder than words; consequently, his words were usually far too cold and dry.

It was the Spring Tournament, with crowds of people cheering for their teams. In this case, Karasuno had made it to the semifinals, and there were clearly plenty of people supporting the team. Apparently, Tsukishima had invited you to come watch him, obviously using that cold and indifferent tone he always used to pretend he wasn't that excited, when in reality, he was—very much so.

The semifinals were a tough battle, but in the end, they won the match. You were in the stands, trying not to be too loud while cheering for your boyfriend, as you knew how much noise bothered him.

After a while, he came looking for you following the awards and acknowledgments, trying to make sure his team didn't see him.

—"Hey..." He touched your shoulder, looking into your eyes, though he was exhausted from the match.

—"How was the game?" Tsukishima murmured, despite his annoyed expression.

—"The blocks... I dedicated them to you..." He spoke indifferently, though he detested saying things that were too cheesy.

—"How gross, I'm not inviting you again next time," Tsukishima said afterward; although he tried to seem indifferent, the blush on his ears gave him away.
