The few times they would bump into each other, he felt slightly awkward. This was also due to the call with Kuroo. Kuroo, for the entirety of the call, was laughing at his pudding friend. No advice was driven out of his friend, only a string of laughter and teases—maybe a minute of Kuroo's cries since he laughed too hard.

I don't get why all these indecent thoughts always come to me whenever she's around.

Kenma sat awkwardly beside Y/N as she starts the stream.

"Are you feeling alright?"

"Y-Yeah..."

"Don't be too nervous! You can just comment on the work or answer some of the questions."

"Yep."

The stream started and viewers flowed in. While waiting for a couple of minutes, conversing with the viewers, Y/N opened up a google document folder where people submit their works.

"I'm with Kenma, A.K.A. Koduzuken, and we're going to review your works!"

"Yay..."

His shy 'yay' made the chat go crazy. He leaned a bit closer to her, which she tried ignoring but his slight cologne was driving her mad. 

"Oh, I like this one."

"Why? Kenma, give more details."

"E-Erm... I-It looks cool? I guess? Like the way the shading is done."

He was still an amateur but the viewers loved it. Each drawing was well done, Y/N giving them a grade from 60% to 100% depending on how impressed they were. Kenma leaned closer to the computer, reading the comments.

[Oliveten8] Yes! View it!

"E-Erm... They're asking to view... NSFW ones..."

"Oh... Guys, Kenma might me u-uncomfortable."

[Nyanyabedhead] ARE YOU GUYS STILL TEENAGERS?!

[Nyanyabedhead] donated $6969 

[HootingintheBOOTie] Nyanyabedhead donated that much?! Come on!

"Y/N, l-let's just see it. It's fine..."

"But... you know... it's like... *whisper* Hentai."

His face flushed red but he shook his head saying that it was alright. The viewers donated so much money and it would be disappointing if they did not look at the work. Y/N timidly tells the viewers that they'll do it. Kenma hugged her cat plushie that somehow ended up in his lap, peeking from behind as she opened each drawing.

"E-Erm... I-The p-position is interesting..."

"A-As a guy, the... the proportion is quite e-exaggerated."

[TracetheAce15] They're blushing! Ship!

"G-Guys, let's end the stream here... I... I'll do the NSFW ones another time, alright?"

The two of them waved goodbye and the stream was cut. There was this musky sexual tension between them and he was pressing the plushie on his lap, not like she even noticed.

"K-Kenma?"

"Y-Y-Yeah?!"

"Sorry about that... I... I didn't want you to f-find out I do NSFW a-art..."

"I-It's alright. I kn- An a-artist does what she wants, right?"

"R-Right... Erm..."

DAMN IT! THAT STREAM MADE IT UNCOMFORTABLE BETWEEN KENMA AND ME! DREAMS OF BEING TOGETHER, BYE BYE!

"I-uh... I'll go back to my a-apartment... and I'll see you around?"

"Yeah. H-Have a good rest!"

It really was awkward. Everything that had to do with Y/N and NSFW stuff had been following him, from his pop-ups and sudden ads on his phone. A month flew by and the only interactions they had were through text and occasionally greetings. Comfortable on the phone but awkward in real life. Y/N was not in a good mood because she was being blatantly ignored by Kenma, her YouTube and IRL crush. Her head was down, accidentally walking straight into someone's chest. She looked up and the hyena grin was recognizable.

"Oya? Kenma? It's Y/N."

She looked to the right and it was the very male that had been ignoring her. His gaze went from his PSP to her eyes, trembling slightly with a blush. Kuroo hovered over her like a tower,

"Y/N, are you single?"

...???

"H-H-Huh?! I-I- Y-yes?!"

"Oya? Then... would you like to go out with m-"

Kenma stretched his arm out across Kuroo's chest as if he was blocking him from getting closer.

"Y/N is uncomfortable."

"Kenma~ I'm just asking a cute girl out. Besides... she's single."

His arm dropped and he walked in front of his taller friend, squinting his eyes.

"Kuro, that's not how you hit on girls."

"But~ She's single and ready to mingle~ Unless...

He peeked behind Kenma,

"You like someone?"

"Kuro!"

Kuroo smirked, pushing Kenma slightly to make him stagger to the left as he stared wide eyes at his friend. The tall male traced her jaw, pulling her chin up to look right into his scheming eyes.

"Do you? If you don't, go out with me."

"I sai-"

Y/N sheepishly replied, eyes avoiding the two male,

"I-I have... I-I like someone."

"Okay... But, if you don't say the name, I'm taking you out on a date-"

Kenma smashed his PSP into his waist, making him shiver slightly. He grabbed Y/N, pulling her to his side as he walked away, looking back at his friend with a scowl. Kuroo was holding in his expression, running right next to them as he stared at the trembling female.

"KUR-"

"K-K-Kenma!"

"Huh?"

"I-I l-like...K-Kenma..."

Her voice was timid and Kenma's grip on her shoulder tightened slightly. Kuroo did a bit of his dance, sliding backward as the girl's body shivered in embarrassment. Kenma glanced at his friend with eyes wide open, Kuroo giving him a toothy grin and a thumbs up. He disappeared in a rush, leaving the two in another awkward silence. Kenma sighed, pouting slightly as he pressed some buttons on his PSP.

H-He's annoyed. I ruined it. I fucked up. I'm fucked up. I adasflhsegaeibfud...?

He shoved the PSP into her hands, covering his face with one hand as he looked away. Y/N took the PSP and looked at the screen,

I like you too. Will you be my girlfriend?

She screamed internally, pressing the keys as fast. His hand was taken out of his pocket, the blue device on his hand as she fiddled with her fingers.

Okay.

"R-R-Really?"

"Y-Yes..."

Kenma was slightly taller than her, gazing down at her beautiful orbs that shone with happiness. She tiptoed, pecking him on his lips that were slightly chapped. His face flushed and steam emitted out of his head, making the girl giggle at how cute it was. The two walked back to their apartments, hand in hand as a new couple. 

Conclusion? Kuroo was the best friend he could ask for.
