Falling for Konoha Akinori - A (long) Headcanon.
Fukurodani Academy is huge, how do they expect newbies to get used to this place? You stumble at every step, stopping at every single building and you're going insane at how you still have not found the building of your classroom. Coming to school early was the best decision you've ever made. However, the tiredness and sleepiness (you barely slept a wink because of the nerves) was slowly creeping up to you. You decided to stop and sit at a bench, rubbing your sleepy eyes. "Are you lost?" You jumped at the sudden voice and turned around to see a fellow student. His hair was a bit messy but his uniform was so neat, as if being handled with so much care. "A bit," you whispered, slightly embarrassed. How dumb do you have to be to get lost? In a school. "The buildings here are confusing," he laughs. You take the time to read the name tag on his blazer. Konoha Akinori. Pretty name, you thought to yourself. "Which class are you in?" You decided to show him the paper you're holding, not trusting your own voice. Konoha smiles. "Seems like we're classmates," Damn. He has a pretty smile.
Despite being classmates, you barely talk to Konoha. You occasionally see the back of his head, and you'd find yourself stealing glances when you hear him laugh. But, that's about it. See, school isn't that bad. It's your fourth week at Fukurodani Academy, you've made your share of friends, and everyone's nice. Despite all that though, you still think that group assignments are the death of you. Why was this even necessary? Can't you just be at peace? If doing group assignments is not bad enough, having been paired with someone you're trying to avoid is worse. Being paired with Konoha is not the end of the world, but it sure as heck felt like it.
Konoha's obnoxiously smart. He's extremely sarcastic too, although he will never admit it. You work with him in silence, and it's something that you are thankful for. You don't think you can even talk to him anyway. It's not like you share common interests. Sometimes, though, when he does speak, you sometimes compare his voice to honey. Sweet, smooth, pretty. It gets really annoying.
Konoha enjoys making you annoyed. He laughs every time your eye rolls, he'd giggle when he makes you huff and his favourite free time is tormenting you. The only thing you can do, though, is take a deep breath and let him do his thing. He'll get bored of it and you, right?
Konoha's working on your project well, but the speed that he's doing it is making you anxious. It's less than a week till you have to turn in your work, and Konoha's progress is slow. "We have to turn this in next week, you know? You better speed up." you say, biting the tip of your pen. "What's the rush? Can't I just enjoy my time with you?" he says cooly, eyes never leaving yours. And that is enough to let you know that you're absolutely fucked because you have a crush on Konoha Akinori.
The weeks pass by, and you're back to only-stealing-glances-of-Konoha Akinori. You're back at the no talking basis and it lowkey frustrates you. However, in your head, you know that if Konoha wanted to talk to you, he would. And if he chooses to not talk to you, then you will choose to move on and get rid of the feelings you have for him. It's stupid anyway. There's no way Konoha will like you.
Autumn comes to an end, and so did your feelings for Konoha. You no longer feel the need to steal glances, no more frustrations if he doesn't talk to you, and you feel nothing when you see his face or hear his voice. And it's the most at peace you feel. That is until a third year approached you during lunch, taking a seat in front of you, showing you the biggest smile you have ever seen. "I'm just wondering," she says. "Do you happen to be in any clubs?"
Standing at the entrance door of the gym, you now realise that you're completely fucked. What do you mean you signed up to be the manager of the volleyball club? And why is Konoha Akinori there, standing, just looking at you and smiling obnoxiously? What do you mean you have to do this for the next two years? How are you going to handle being around Konoha Akinori so much? But, also, why do you insist on staying? Even when you have so many opportunities to turn away and run, why didn't you?
You've had a fair share of compliments being thrown to you about the way you look. You've had confessions every now and then, and you've had your fair share of dates. But, none of the them ever lasted more than 3 months. It does not bother you though. Being in a relationship or not, that does not matter to you. In fact, that's the least of your problem. To Konoha, though, whenever a guy comes over to talk to you, it ends up causing him to spike the ball a little too hard, or it'll prompt him to scoff and roll his eyes, walking out of the gym and only coming back after a few minutes or so. When you said yes to a date with Kuroo, a middle blocker from Nekoma, you could feel his sharp glare burning the back of your head. But it doesn't matter because Konoha doesn't care about who you date right? Why would it bother him? It's not like he has feelings for you.
It's been a week since your date with Kuroo, but you have to admit, it's not going too well. Kuroo's funny and smart and kind, and he cares about you a lot. But to you, he's just.. Kuroo. The next time Fukurodani and Nekoma had a practice match, you decided to talk to Kuroo to end things with him. "I don't think it's going really well," you tell him, playing with the hem of your shirt. "You're sweet and funny and I like you a lot but-" "But I'm not him," Kuroo said, cutting you off. You look up to him and blinked. You tilt your head and furrow your brows, obviously taken aback and confused. "You're not who?" Kuroo just let out a giggle and pat your head. "It's alright. You'll work it out," is all he said, leaving you there, standing outside the gym, still confused. "He's not who?" you whisper to yourself. Why are men so confusing?
