He did a pretty good job of keeping it a secret. It’s not like he spent a lot of time talking in class or smiling at people. The fact that people seemed to avoid him made the fact that he was trying to hide his braces from everyone so much easier.

That was, until practice. It got away from him there. Tsukishima was the first to notice (because why would it be anyone else). “Do my eyes decieve me or has the King gotten braces?” Tsukishima whispered loudly to Yamaguchi, which sent Yamaguchi into a fit of laughter.

Tanaka walked over and said “Really, you have braces? Let’s see.”

Kageyama just stood there staring fixedly at his feet and clenching his fists at his sides. It took a moment, but he looked up and said “Yeah, I’ve got braces.”

Tsukishima smirked “Have we found something that our King is embarrassed about?”

Kageyama frowned and furrowed his brows making him look terrifying to those who didn’t know him. “I’m not embarrassed.” Kageyama said not meeting anyone’s eyes.

Everyone saw Hinata come back inside after taking a moment to cool off in the breeze outside. Tsukishima called out “So what do you think Hinata?”

Hinata looked confused and noticed nobody was practicing. “What’s going on?” he asked.

“Kageyama’s gotten braces.” Noya called out from beside Tanaka.

Hinata walked over to Kageyama and asked “Did you?”

Kageyama nodded his head but kept looking at his feet. He jumped a little when Hinata lowered his head to try to catch his eye. “Show me?” he asked gently.

Kageyama met his eyes and stared at him for a moment. “Please” Hinata said.

Kageyama sighed and pulled his lips back so Hinata could see. Sure enough, there were the braces, complete with black and orange coloring in the wires.

Hinata smiled brightly at Kageyama and grabbed his arm. “You look so cute.” Hinata said with a little jump.

This idea is utterly heartbreaking to me. Kageyama already has trouble finding ways to fit in and relate to people and to have his parents be so negative would just be crushing.

I think his parents would just completely ignore him (baseing this on his lack of interaction with his parents anyway in cannon). That or they would pull the “You are no longer my son thing and kick him out.”

*I must have my HEA for Kageyama*

Lucky for Kageyama, his boyfriends family adores him. When they were just friends his boyfriends’ family sort of adopted him and took over the “proud parent” role in his life, and when he started dating their son they were ecstatic. They just extended an invitation to move and and literally made him a part of the family.

And when he proposed to his boyfriend, he wasn't sure who was happier about it, his (now) fiancee or his adopted parents.
