It was supposed to be a little get together for Nekoma and Karasuno. Although they were all fated rivals, it didn’t mean they couldn’t relax before the school year started up again, and so Spring Interhigh. 

And why not have the Cats visit the Crow’s territory? After all, the Tanabata festival was the biggest in Sendai, Miyagi. 

Except, chaos ensued and that’s how you found yourself lost in the crowds of the Tanabata festival with Kuroo. Your hand tightened around his, and Kuroo squeezing yours back, giving you a side glance to ensure that you wouldn’t disappear from his sight with your short height. 

You didn’t mind being lost with Kuroo though, it was beautiful. The colorful strips of paper adorning the buildings. The cheery laughter of families and children brushing against your legs. It was sweet, since the festival was about star-crossed lovers. 

And though your love story with Kuroo wasn’t necessarily a star-crossed story, it was still a romantic one nonetheless. 

“Where do you think the others went off to?” You asked Kuroo. He shrugged in response, hoping that Kenma was fine. But he knew Kenma was most likely off on the outskirts to find some peace and quiet. Or Hinata was dragging him around with Lev, Inuoka, and Shibayama close behind. 

“We’re off practice, I’m not their captain,” Kuroo gave you a sly grin and you frowned in response, knowing he was up to something, “I’m your date for tonight, so let’s not think of our kids right now.” 

“AW,” you held his entire arm, rubbing the side of your face into the side of his arm, “so you do see us as parents when it comes to the team.” 

Kuroo opened his mouth to make a retort only for him to get interrupted.

“Jas?” A familiar soft and feminine voice called out. Kuroo and you turned around to see Ameris holding hands with Sugawara. The two were adorning yukatas similar to your own and Kuroo’s. “Oh, and Kuroo, sorry didn’t see you. Thought we lost everyone.”

“That’s only because you’re short,” Kuroo teased Ameris. But you were quick to flick him on his cheek. 

“Shut up Tetsu, we’re not short we’re fun-sized.” you defended, giving Ameris a smile who promptly returned one. 

“Well, since this is supposed to be a bonding thing between Karasuno and Nekoma, we could just hang out,” Sugawara suggested, and with that being said the four of you walked through the crowds talking catching up. You and Kuroo couldn’t help but eye the way Suga and Ameris were holding each other’s hands. At the training camp they were all just at, the two weren’t together at all. 

A small silent conversation between you and Kuroo were held as you walked behind Sugawara and Ameris. You nudged him to mention something but he nudged you back. 

With a sigh and a roll of your eyes, “Hey, Ames, this is kinda like a double date, huh?” 

Ameris flushed red, her hand promptly pulling away from Sugawara’s, “Wha-Oh, no, we’re just friends! It was just crowded and we didn’t want to get separated is all!” She held her hands behind her back and Sugawara, ah the poor guy. You couldn’t help but take a bit of pity between the two of them. 

Exchanging glances with your boyfriend, finding their situation a little too similar to your own, a little scheme already being planted in the two of your heads. 

That’s how you and Kuroo found yourselves dragging the two pining idiots off to a more isolated area to watch the fireworks. And when the loud crackling of the fireworks began and an array of lights filled the night skies with the stars in the background, you and Kuroo snuck off to give the two their own alone time. 

“Do you think they’ll finally get together?” you asked him, panting from running away. 

“I think so,” Kuroo replied, reaching both his hands to grab yours as he pulled you into him. “But, I’d rather think about you right now.”
