---SUGAWARA HARUTO WAS ONCE MORE, CURIOUS

He stared up at the boy with orange hair from behind his brother's leg.

He was quite used to seeing people with weird hair around, just look at his brother, but he had never seen someone with orange hair.

He peeked up at his brother and shyly pointed at who he was staring at. His brother squatted down next to him and nodded, "that's Hinata bubbs"

Haruto tilted his head, 'what's a hinata?' he wondered, not saying it out loud.

Sugawara hummed and decided to try and simplify it, he pointed at Harutos chest, "Ha-ru-to" and then pointed at Hinata, "Hi-na-ta" he sounded out.

Haruto blinked owlishly for a few seconds, before nodding. Sugawara smiled and picked him up again, walking up next to Daichi.

Haruto looked at Daichi from his brother's shoulder and smiled, innocently looking up at the older male.

Daichi jokingly glared at Haruto before chuckling and squishing his cheek.

Sugawara noticed their little playing and switched Haruto to his other shoulder, he stuck his tongue out at Daichi "get your own brother"

He looked at Haruto and they both burst out into quiet laughter that stopped once Sugawara was smacked on the back of the head.

Now it was Daichi's turn to laugh, he didn't laugh for long though as Sugawara smacked him back. They got into a small smack war as they stood behind the rest of the team, Ukai's small speech being ignored as they kept smacking each other.

Their little smack fest was interrupted as legs kicked the back of their knees. Haruto was snatched from his brother's grip as he and Daichi awkwardly sunk to the floor.

Haruto looks up at his kidnapper and instantly smiles, Asahi smiling back at him.

Haruto loved being with Asahi, he always smelled like coconut and his hair was smooth and fun to play with, his beard felt funny too.

He cooed and extended a hand to touch Asahi's soft hair, touching it gently and making sure not to hurt him.

By now Daichi and Sugawara had gotten up from the floor, glaring at Asahi with jealous eyes, the latter only smiled smugly before walking to the front.

Haruto finished his babbling and looked down from Asahis shoulder, reaching forward to pet the spiky mess of hair that was next to Asahi.

The male whose hair he was petting looked up and smiled brightly at the kid, the whole time he had been trying to stay still and not scare the poor toddler.

Asahi looked down at Haruto and the male and pointed, "Ni-shi-no-ya" he sounded out gently.

Nishinoya smiled and nodded proudly.

Haruto smiled and extended his arms towards the libero, asking to be carried by him.

Asahi frowned, jealousy running through his veins as he deposited Haruto into Nishinoya's awaiting arms.

Haruto looked up at the blonde strands of hair at the front of his hair and tilted his head, reaching upwards and gently holding the tufts of hair in his palm.

His curiosity faded away into the background as he snuggled into Nishinoya's warm arms, staring at Ukai's blonde hair and then back at Nishinoyas, and then at a tall males hair.

He shivered and snuggled more into Nishinoya's arms and closed his eyes, deciding to take a small nap.
