hinata / placed on a pedestal

thank you to the lovely reader who made this request! it was so fun, yet so painful to write because hinata is pure sunshine... i did him so dirty, even on his birthday T^T
...well, enjoy!

"You look lovely today, (y/n)!" a boy with short, curly brown hair handed you a single rose as you passed in the hallway. You carefully plucked it out of his hand and smiled, but it quickly disappeared once you continued down the hall.

"What do you do with all this stuff anyways? You get like, a box of chocolate every week." Yua rolled her eyes as she marched by your side.

"I usually just throw it away. Chocolate's too sweet." you shrugged.

"And the flowers?"

"In the trash as well."

Yua chuckled, "Fair enough."

As the two of you walked around the corner, you collided with a person just a couple centimeters shorter than you. It was a boy with bright orange hair that curled at the ends, and he seemed to be quivering.

"Ohmygod I-I'm so sorry!"

"Wait—come with me Kageyama!" Hinata urged his friend on for moral support as he built up the courage to confront his crush.

"Won't it just be awkward if I'm there?" he rose a brow. The orange haired boy frantically shook his head. "Fine." Kageyama faked a sigh and trudged alongside the wing spiker.

"Calm down, you won't be able to say anything if you're shaking so much." Kageyama nudged his friend's shoulder. "I'm trying!"

As the two boys rounded the corner, one of them had come into a rough collision. Hinata rubbed his forehead, wincing at the mild pain and looked up at his victim.

As soon as he realized who it was, he quickly apologized, but his words sounded more like a bundled mess if anything. Kageyama glared at Hinata, telling him that now was the time. The spiker gulped down his nerves, his hand clutched in tight fists by his side. Here we go.

"I-i like you, (y-y/n)-san!" the orange haired boy before you squeaked.

You glanced at your best friend who couldn't help but snicker at the first year's messy attempt of a confession. You rose a bow, mentally asking if he was going to continue or leave it at that.

"A-and i was wondering... i-if you wanted to um... go out with me." his eyes were tightly shut, and you couldn't help but notice the sweat forming on his forehead. He was such a wreck you almost felt bad.

Almost.

You thought for a second, pressing the tip of your index finger on your bottom lip. "Sure, why not?"

Yua furrowed her brows in confusion, the question "why?" written all over her face.

Kageyama's eyebrows rose in shock, but he was so quiet no one had noticed him.

Hinata shuffled in place. He clearly hadn't thought this far.

"D-do you like sweets?" he asked, a nervous, quivering smile on his face. You nodded your head. The spiker looked to his friend for help.

You watched as a tall black haired boy you only just noticed mouth the word "cafe".

"...Then how about the cafe across from the school?" Hinata asked. Looks like he finally fixed his stutter... You thought to yourself.
