Notes
     Hey Guys, This is my second fanfiction and my first of this fandom. I
     love Haikyuu and Training Camp was amazing. I loved the relationship
     Bokuto, Kuroo and Tsukishima have, So I decided to write a fanfic. So
     this is set during Training Camp, Season 2, episode 7 and in this
     Fanfic, Training Camp is going to last three weeks. Kuroo and Bokuto
     are already dating and thanks to AnimeFangirl I have made Akaashi and
     Kenma a pair.

***** Chapter 1 *****
The bird who dares to fall is the bird that learns to fly - Unknown
Kuroo POV
While he was the tallest of his team, he was the least noticeable. It was like
his coach said, Tsukishima was a baby bird still in his shell and it didn't
seem like he was going to come out anytime soon.
Kuroo had also noticed he was only friendly with freckles (Yamaguchi), he saw a
bit of Kenma in Tsukishima. Maybe that`s why he had convinced Akaashi and
Bokuto to let Tsukishima join their evening practice. Not that it took much
work to convince them, they are both fond of the Karasuno team.
Later that night
"Tsukishima kun is coming this way" Akaashi informed them
"Hey Karasuno" Kuroo yelled, pretending not to know his name
Tsukishima turned in the direction of the voice and didn't bother to hide his
grimace when he saw the captains of Nekoma and Fukurodani beckoning him over,
two teams that he had lost against repeatedly today.
"Glasses kun, want to do some blocking practice with me" Bokuto said excitedly
"No thank you, I`m heading to bed goodnight" Tsukishima said before turning
around
Bokuto looked crestfallen and gave Kuroo the owl eyes
"He may not look it, but this guy is one of the top five spikers in the
country" Kuroo announced, hoping to catch Tsukishima attention.
Tsukishima stopped and slowly turned back around, Kuroo fought the smirk trying
to appear.
"So he couldn't make it into the top three, huh" came the snide remark from the
baby crow
Saltyshima indeed thought Kuroo as he remembered the nickname the shrimp had
told Kenma
Bokuto drew him out of his thoughts by whining loudly to Akaashi, talking about
how Kuroo raises him up, just to be knocked down.
"Besides if your a middle blocker, you should practice your blocking a bit
more" Kuroo said smirking as he watched a vein throb in Tsukishima forehead and
walked past him and into the gym.
When Bokuto realized he had someone to block him, he stopped clinging to
Akaashi and with a thumbs up and a kiss to Kuroo, he went to warm up.
Akaashi sighed "This is going to be a long night"
Kuroo sat on one side the court, his attention torn between the dead on
impression of roadkill by Lev and Tsukishima being destroyed by his boyfriend
(Get your minds out of the gutter), Glasses had yet to stop a single ball and
with every block he did, less energy he put into it.
Frowning Kuroo decided to leave the barely conscious Lev on the floor, and make
his way over to the trio when he felt his breath get caught in his throat.
Tsukishima had jumped again but his shirt got caught on the net and had pulled
his shirt up just enough to see his ribs. Kuroo was shocked at how thin he was,
maybe he wasn't eating properly he thought. He fought a shudder at the thought
of Kenma old diet (Junk food) before Yaku got involved and became the team mom.
He would talk to the baby crow about the importance of a healthy diet after
training he thought to himself, nodding he jogged the rest of the way over.
His boyfriend was jumping around the court and cheering about how great his
spikes are,
"You beat one blocker Bokuto san, not something to brag about" Akaashi said in
a monotone voice
"So how about two" Kuroo said slinging his arm around Tsukishima shoulders.
Bokuto spikes again but is blocked by Kuroo
"Glasses kun" Bokuto begins but is interrupted by Tsukishima "My name is
Tsukishima " , "Fine, Tsukki, your blocks are so weak, I`m scared I`m going to
break your arms, you need to block like Kuroo kun, if you give it 100 percent
then your blocks will work!" Bokuto finishes, looking like he gave Tsukishima
all of life`s answers.
"Yeah Tsukishima kun, if you don`t put more effort in, then shrimpy is going to
over take you" Kuroo said with a smirk trying to give Tsukishima some
motivation
Tsukishima face betrayed a flicker of emotion before disappearing, rubbing his
neck, he looked sheepish as he told the captains "The talent different between
me and Hinata is too great, I don`t stand a chance, I`m tired now goodnight
senpai`s. "
With that he turned around to leave as the rest of the Nekoma team filled the
gym
"Hey, wait" Kuroo called after Tsukishima, Just as he reaches out to grab him,
he suddenly finds himself with an armful of Lev. Clinging to him and crying for
him to protect him from Yaku san.
"You done it now Kuroo san, your too blunt" Akaashi said sighing
Did I just get lectured about bluntness from Akaashi? Kuroo thought to himself
then frowned as he watched Tsukishima walk toward the dorms
The coach was right, Tsukishima is a baby bird stuck in a shell, but a shell of
no self esteem. Would he ever break free? Kuroo thought sadly
***** Chapter 2 *****
Chapter Notes
See the end of the chapter for notes
Tsukishima Pov
He couldn’t breathe, his heart was pounding and pain lit up his sides. He had
been running ever since he left the gym.
15 laps he had run and still had another 12 to go, one lap for every block he
had miss and no dinner for him tonight.
He only ate when he stopped a block or got a perfect score on a test or
homework, because only then did he deserve to eat.
Suddenly his vision blurred and his knees buckle, he grunted as he hit the cold
hard ground. He stayed there till his vision clear.
He looked around, making sure no one had seen him almost collapse, the area was
deserted seeing as it was 11 pm.
“I`ll go to bed now and get up 5 am to to the rest of my laps” he thought to
himself as he stumbled into the Karasuno dorm.
Sugawara the supermom he was shot up as he heard the door to the dorm open and
seeing Tsukishima walk in,
“Tsukishima, what are you doing out so late?” Sugawara whisper as to not
disturb the rest of the team.
Tsukishima barley manged to stifle a scream at hearing someone pop up behind
him,
spinning around he saw the team mom softly tapping his foot with his hip cocked
out and a hand rest on it.
“He does know hes not actually a mom doesn’t he?” Tsukishima thought to
himself, “Oh Sugawara, I wasn’t tired so I went for a walk”
“Hmmm” Sugawara said not happy he hadn’t noticed one of his baby crows hadn’t
come back.
“Okay but next time let someone know where you are” Sugawara told Tsukishima.
Feigning a smile Tsukishima nodded and headed to his futon which was next to
Hinata who was currently mumbling in his sleep “One more toss”
“Unbelievable” Tsukishima thought as he shook his head in disgust.
Break time the next day
Kuroo Pov
After grabbing a watermelon slice from one of the managers he looked for the
Karasuno captain Daichi,
locating him pretty quickly thanks to shrimpy who was jumping up and down,
while telling the Karasuno team mom about a spike he had made in the last
practice.
Walking up the hill, he parked himself in front of Daichi and said “It looks
like I pissed off your glasses kun”,
“glasses kun” said Daichi confused. “Tsukishima” Sugawara informed him softly.
“Oh, what happened: Daichi said now concerned.
“I made a comment about him not being able to over take Hinata as motivation at
practice last night, but I think I offended him” Kuroo told him feeling guilty.
Daichi opened his mouth ready to sooth Kuroo worries when Sugawara interrupted
him “He was with you last night, oh thank god I was worried about him”
“Only for an hour, when I pissed him off, he left” Kuroo said
“Didn’t he have dinner with you?” Sugawara asked
“No, I thought he had dinner with you guys and we were dinner just before the
canteen closed” Kuroo told him
“The canteen closes at 9, he didn’t get into the dorms till 11pm what was he
doing if he wasn’t eating or practicing?” said Sugawara in a panicked voice
the thought of one of his babies by themselves in a strange school at night
doing god knows what, worried him deeply.
The three seniors shared concerned looks and turning around they saw Tsukishima
sitting next to Yamaguchi with a slice of watermelon,
taking a small bite he looked up as he felt eyes on him. There at the top of
the hill was Sugawara, Daichi and Kuroo staring at him.
Uneasy he stood up and saw Sugawara also standing up and starting to head down
the hill toward him.
Tsukishima threw the rest of his uneaten watermelon in the bin and walked away
as a brisk pace.
Sugawara saw Tsukishima throw away his food and walk away, frowning he turned
around to Daichi and Kuroo.
Seeing the worry on his boyfriends face, “its okay, we will talk to him after
our last match” Daichi soothed Sugawara.
Nodding Kuroo said “I`ll leave it to you then” and with that,
he walked over to Yaku who was forcing Kenma to put down his game boy and eat
some watermelon.
Watching Kuroo walk away, Sugawara turned back around to Daichi "We are getting
to the bottom of this" He told Daichi sternly
"Yes dear" Daichi replied softly, knowing better than to get in between
Sugawara and one of his "babies" when he is in mom mode
Chapter End Notes
     Hey guys, how you like the new chapter? I know it is short but the
     next one will be longer.
     Next chapter will have Bokuto and Akaashi in it,
     If anyone has any ideas on how to get Akaashi and Kenma together
     would love to hear it,
     If there is anything you want to see in the next chapter I`m open to
     suggestions.
End Notes
     Okay, so that was basically a recap of Season 2, episode 7 but a bit
     of a twist. Sorry, next chapter will focus more on Tsukki and his
     eating disorder. I was just setting the scene with this chapter.
     Sorry if its bad. Please leave a kudos and comment.
