"Ugh! I have nothing to do!" Whined Hinata whose back is slumped against the couch's arm rest. It had only been a few months — Or rather a year ever since he arrived at Brazil to continue his training. In all honesty, Hinata finds it fun and exciting, especially when he first met his room mate, Pedro, who just ignored him the first days-months they met and just focused on his own things.

Hinata, at first, was about to give up making a good relationship with his room mate, but when he was about to pout all day, he saw Pedro reading a manga that he loves so dearly, One Piece. He excitedly, not knocking on the door, went to Pedro's door and slid through the floor with a bright face. And that's when the two became close. But that doesn't erase the fact that Hinata still feels lonely.

Despite having Pedro's company, the younger latter still needs to focus on college, so he cannot really annoy him and be there with him always. But throughout the months they've been together, Hinata and Pedro helped each other out. Their relationship is beyond those of just ordinary friends, it is something much more than that. Much more important. But on the other hand, Hinata feels empty. He misses his family, his friends. His home sickness didn't help with his problems, but Pedro's always there to be with him, to be by his side.

Whenever Hinata feels lost, he would always look at a picture of him, Kageyama, Tsukishima, Yamaguchi, and Yachi on their last day at Karasuno. He would longingly stare at the photo for hours, reminiscing the past. Or, when Pedro's around, he would always ramble about his high school days and how he misses it, and of course, Pedro would listen and would look at Hinata with awe, admiration, and passion.

Hinata knows that he cannot dwell on the past, but he just can't help it. The only motivation that keeps him going, that keeps him from leaving Brazil in the past, is the thought of beating Kageyama into a pulp in a match. 

Hinata, he is happy to be on somewhere new, learning something new. He is thankful to God for bringing him here, to have new experiences. He knows, he truly does, that if he gives up, how can he even defeat Kageyama?

But with Pedro by his side, his worries lessens. He even became fluent in Portuguese with the help of Pedro. Through his highs and lows, Pedro is always there to stand by him, and that is why Hinata didn't falter and fall; Because of his determination, and his new motivation.

Reminiscing everything that happened over the past, Hinata made a small smile before he continued to whine when he is slapped with reality once more. "Sho, whining there won't help you gain anything." Pedro lectured, looking at the tangerine who just pouted at him as he sighed. "It's your birthday today, c'mon, let's head out."

"As long as I can do something rather than slump on this couch on this boring day! — Wait. . . It is, indeed, my birthday today!" Chuckled Hinata, standing up as he stretched his back excitedly. "You're now 26, right? Damn. . . Time does flies fast." Pedro remarked, picking up his keys and his jacket on the table. "I'm getting older. . . I'm almost on my thirties, yet I still don't have a girl friend. . ." Hinata sighed, scratching the back of his neck with a smile so nervous. "Well, how can you even get a girl friend when your focus is all put upon volleyball?"

"Heh, you're right about that" Hinata took of his shirt and his pants which he just tossed away. "HEY! Didn't we already talked about this, Sho?" Sighed the taller latter, picking up Hinata's clothes that are scattered in their living room. "What? I'm laaaaaazy" Hinata smiled as he ran away to his room and picked up a towel and continued to go to the bathroom.

Pedro cheekily smiled as he put Hinata's clothes in their bin of dirty clothes. "I guess I can let it go since it is his birthday today. . ."

"PEDRO!" Hinata yelled from the bathroom. "What!?" Pedro replied, wanting to smack the smaller latter's head after. "CAN YOU GRAB THE NEW BATH SUPPLIES THAT WE BOUGHT A MONTH AGO? OUR CURRENT SUPPLIES ALREADY RAN OUT!"

It's already empty? Well, I guess it's already been a couple of months, "Alright! I'll be there in a sec!" Pedro went over a room in their corridor, opening its door that was their supply room. He scavenge the room, looking for the supplies that Hinata mentioned, and when he did found it, Pedro picked it up, going out of the room.

"Here. Why can't you just get it yourself, Shouyo. You're the closest to the room." Pedro knocked at the bathroom door that opened, revealed a naked Hinata covered with soap. "Hehe! Sorry! I'm wet" Hinata picked up the supplies from Pedro's, giving the taller man a smile before closing the door on Pedro's face. "Even though he is already an adult, he still acts as a child. . . But hey, who say's I'm complaining." With a small smile, Pedro left, sitting at the couch; Scrolling through his phone, reading a manga, or listening to music or whatever that can help him pass time waiting for Hinata to finish.

After a few minutes, Hinata appeared before Pedro, fully dressed. Pedro looked at the tangerine that is standing in front of him excitedly. "Let's go! Let's go! Where are we going!? Are we going to the mall!? Are we going to a bar!? Are we going to the beach!? O-or a sports arena!? Are we going to watch a match!?" Hinata exclaimed, running to the door as he flung it open, exiting the apartment as Pedro followed; locking the door after they got out.

"I think that you've had too much time on the beach, Sho. As well as the sports arena and watching a match." Groaned Pedro, rolling his eyes at the thought of watching volleyball again.

Hinata let out a chuckled at Pedro complain as he began, "There's no such thing as too much when it comes to volleyball, Pedro"

"For a volleyball freak like you Sho, there isn't. But for a normal human-being like me, it's too much." Hinata laughed at Pedro's remark as the taller male smiled.

On their walk, the two idly spoke to each other. In times, they would stop by on shops to buy things, and Pedro being Pedro, spoiled Shouyo with gifts. Apart from those, Hinata never put his phone down, and Pedro understands why. His friends, his enemies, and his family keeps on greeting him despite their time differences. I guess he really is liked, Pedro thought, wondering what kind of friends does Hinata have other than that flirty one he took home months ago.

"—dro! Pedro! You still there, bud?" Pedro came back to reality and faced Hinata who's calling him. "Huh- What? Do you need something? What did you say again?" Hinata chuckled, facing Pedro his phone which is on a video call. "Guys, this is Pedro, my trusty friend and room mate. Pedro, this is my best friends, friends, frenemies, and enemies!"

Pedro's ears reddened in embarrassment as he maintained his composure, waving his hand as he looked away; Walking past Hinata as he cursed under his breath. "Damn myself for jinxing everything!" He muttered. Pedro looked back, looking at Hinata with a wide smile like never before.

It's true that Hinata also shot him those bright smiles of his, but looking at this view, it feels as though he truly misses them. To be honest, Pedro feels proud to be called as Hinata's room mate, but he couldn't help but frown whenever he sees Hinata so down.

I bet they haven't seen Shouyo at those states. . . Those states that makes the sun disappear. . . For a reason that he made. . . And not because of volleyball. . . or losing. . .

It only took a matter of seconds before Hinata once again stood next to Pedro with his phone high up; Talking cheerfully and hearing him laugh made his heart soften as the both went to a café. "I'll order. What do you want?" Volunteered Pedro who looked down at Shouyo who sat at their table while still talking with his friends. "I'll take whatever!" Hinata chirped as Pedro nodded and left for the counter.

"Say. . . Why aren't you sleeping, everyone? Isn't it already late there?" Asked Hinata as his phone went silent. "Guys? . . ." Hinata called but no one dared to reply, and instead, bid their goodbyes as the call ended, leaving Hinata confused and curious. "Well. . . That's just odd. . ."

After some minutes of Hinata pondering and waiting for Pedro, the younger man arrived with a tray of their drinks, a Cinnamon-sugar Latte and a Russian-black Frappe with extra milk cream. "What's this?"

"I'll tell you later, I still have to fetch something at the counter." And with that, Pedro once again left Hinata alone with his thoughts. The tangerine sighed, slumping his back against the wooden chair as he stared at his phone with thoughts. Hinata tried to break the mystery his brain is creating, but he just couldn't budge it. No matter how hard he thinks, he couldn't figure it all out. It's haunting him. It's my birthday today. . . I shouldn't stress about something. . . or anyone. . . I should be happy! Excited! And not. . . pressured. . . 

Hinata once again sighed, rubbing his forehead as he calmed himself down; tucking his phone back to his bag as he close his eyes, concentrating.

Pedro, on the other hand, is just waiting at the counter for his last orders. He was getting impatient, yes, but he was willing to wait just to celebrate Hinata's special day. But, while he was waiting; he would glance on his watch, then onto Hinata, then onto the outside world where he found something- Someone, watching. At first, he didn't pay mind into it, but every time he looks outside, that person is still there, technically not watching him, but someone inside. He looked around, looking at every person inside the café. He would exchange glances between the said stalker and the customers inside, and that made him have both goosebumps and his blood boil.

"Ms. I think that I'll just take my order out. I'll also bring back to drinks to have it all ready for take out. I'll be back." Pedro informed, his 'brows furrowed as he quickly left, leaving the attendee dumb-struck. "Alright, sir. . ." The female said, looking at Pedro as she informed the others. "That's weird. . ."

As Pedro said, he brought the drinks back to the counter, giving it to the staff as they did their job. When he came back to retrieve the drinks earlier, Hinata didn't drink his Latte, in fact, he was asleep, and that made Pedro shiver. We need to leave. . . Now, Pedro thought, tapping his foot on the wooden floor. "Here you go sir. A take-out of Cinnamon-sugar Latte and a Russian-black Frappe with extra milk cream, along with a Red Velvet Round Cake and a Cranberry Snowflake Crisp." The accountant said, "That would be —"

"Here! Keep the change" Pedro hurriedly said as he took his orders and paid the cashier who was taken-a-back. "Yep. That was definitely weird. . ."

"Sho! Hey, wake up. Our orders here, let's eat them at out apartment" Pedro put down the take-outs at their table, lightly shaking Hinata as he opened one eye. "Are you done?" He yawned.

"Yes. Let's go. Let's eat at our apartment while watching." Pedro continued, still keeping his serious composure as he keeps glancing outside. "That sounds a good idea — Why are you also acting strange?"

"I am? How do you say so?"

"You keep looking outside, and you wouldn't really look outside 'cause you said you don't care" Hinata remarked, pointing out the sudden change that the taller latter is currently doing. "Well, I guess I changed a little. C'mon! Let's go, we can't afford to lose time."

"Alright, alright! Geez, what's with the hurry. . ." Mumbled Hinata, picking up the two drinks as Pedro picked the cakes that Hinata payed no mind.

The two left the café, Pedro holding Hinata's hands, dragging him as Hinata didn't even bother to question it. Why is everyone so weird today!?, Hinata thought, pouting as he looked around, noticing a figure following them. The tangerine squinted his eyes, directly looking at the one who was stalking them. "Pedro. . ."

"What?"

"Can you like — walk faster, o-or run? . . ."

"Why?"

"I now understand why you hurriedly want to go home now. . ." Pedro stopped, looking down at Hinata as he looked at him. "Someone's following us. . ."

Pedro angrily looked around before giving Hinata the delicacies he bought. He carried Hinata on his back as he ran as fast as he could. "Pedro — You know I can run on my own right-"

"I know, we don't have enough time, Shouyo."

"Well, if you put me down then we'll have more time! You know you don't have that much stamina!"

"Sho, sometimes, I also need to work hard." Pedro ran faster, never stopping as he find his way back to their shared apartment.

[With The Stalker]

Damn it!, he thought; trying to catch up with the two who keeps glancing on him. "Why was I given the task to follow them anyway!?" He yelled at the mic as he, also, ran faster. "Well, firstly, your faster —"

"Oikawa-san, Hoshiumi, Ushijima-san and some of the others are also fast, why am I the one did you pick!?"

"Well you know Hinata better than us, soooo. . ."

"Ugh! I get it!"

"Kageyama, please follow the plan. Don't ruin it." Rolling his eyes, Kageyama took the ear piece and the mic that is connected to it, throwing it on the ground as he never left his eyes on  the orange-head. "Don't worry. I'll get him."

[Back with Pedro and Hinata]

Fuck this! Why is he fast!?, Pedro took a turn, holding Hinata. The smaller latter looks back, once again squinting his eyes as he adjusted his vision on to the stalker. That stalker's disguise is somewhat familiar. . . He thought, tilting his head as the stalkers cap flew off his head. Wait a minute, "Pe- Pedro," Hinata tapped him by his shoulder causing Pedro to looked at Hinata. "Wha- What?" He panted, sweat trailing down his chin as Hinata asked him to stop.

"Wh- Why should we stop!? There's someone following us!"

"I know. But trust me in this, okay?"

Pedro thought for a minute, putting Hinata down as he took everything that is on his hands. "Do what you gotta do. . . I trust you, just please. . . Don't get hurt, promise me that."

Hinata gave him a smile as he nodded, running back, hoping the 'stalker' didn't notice. If we put volleyball here, I would need to act like a decoy. . . Pedro would be the diversion and I'll try to sneak and SWOOSH! Perfect plan!, Hinata smirked as their plan proceeded.

The stalker looked around, his focus on Pedro as he, too, followed when Pedro ran. Didn't think his plan would work

Hinata let out a snicker, appearing behind the stalker as he tackled him. "Got you!" He villain-ly laughed, looking at the stalking with big glaring eyes. "I didn't know that you would be stalking me, To-bi-o-chan!"

Kageyama's whole world stopped; He had just been caught, which makes their plan a failure. Well, he knows that this whole thing is a failure so what did he expect? Well. . . He did expect Hinata happy and surprised to see them. Giving them hugs and talking to them with that sparkly eyes of his — But that's just against his point!

"Ah. . . Sho- Shouyo! Ha. . . Haha. . . Didn't see you there. I was just walking around —"

"Just taking a walk, huh, Tobio. How did your walking around end up here, in Brazil." Hinata shoved Kageyama's face on the ground, making the blueberry groan. "I was-"

"Shouyo!" Called Pedro. Hinata released Kageyama as he stood up, looking at the male that is running up to him. "Are you okay? Are you hurt?" Bombard Pedro as he took Hinata's shoulders, looking over the smaller boy to see nothing. "I'm glad your alright" He sighed in relief.

"Why wouldn't I be? I keep my promises!" Hinata smiled, looking like a little bird in Pedro's eyes. "Oh, and Pedro! This is Kageyama Tobio! He was my partner in high school! The one-"

"The one that you keep talking about? Yeah. I remembered. But what's he doing here? I thought he's in Japan practicing for the match between MSBY and Adlers." Hinata shrugged, "Beats me"

Kageyama stood up, staring at the two new duo. I guess he has a new partner, Kageyama sadly thought, dusting of his attire and picking up his cap. The two, you can say that they're looking at him, too with curious looks. "So mind answering me on how you got here?"

"I was. . ." Kageyama sighs in defeat as he put his cap in his back. "Fine. . . You deserve to know anyway. . ."

After explaining, Hinata and Pedro looked at each other, then back at Kageyama who just tilted his head. "We don't have that enough room in our apartment." Pedro glared, the feeling of uneasiness of other people in their shared apartment made him shiver more than being stalked. "That is true. . . Our apartment is just enough for," Hinata counted, calculating. "Nine people, and that includes three in each of our rooms, one in the sofa, and two people would be sleeping on the living room floor." Hinata stopped, once again thinking as he continued, "Well, if they are okay to sleep in the storage room, then that would be eleven"

"Wait- That's-"

"Of course! Our apartment is made for two, what did you expect? I'm not rich, and Pedro just finished college."

"I'll go tell them. . ." Kageyama sighed, picking up his phone and calling the group chat, explaining to them what Hinata and Pedro just told him.

"What do you mean just nine!?-"

"If you don't want to sleep in a storage room, then yes."

"I guess the others would just stay in the hotel"

"I had mixed-feeling about this!"

"Oh, ho, ho, ho. . . I call dibs on the first slot!"

"Not fair!"

"As the person who is with Hinata right now, I call dibs on the second!"

"I'll be the third!"

"Me and Tsukishima will be fourth and fifth! Suck that mustards!"

"Since I already know who's Pedro, I would, and gladly claim the sixth!"

"Shut the fuck up, Oikawa. You already saw him, that's why you're going to stay at the hotel."

"But-"

"No buts."

"HA! Serves you right!-"

"You'll be staying too, Atsumu. You will just do perverted things to Hinata."

"What kind of brother are you!?"

"The best and favorite child."

"Why you-"

At the end, all is well for Hinata and Pedro :). And for those eleven, it consists of Kageyama, Tsukishima, Yamaguchi, Daichi, Sugawara, Asahi, Kenma, Osamu, Iwaizumi, Nishinoya, and Sakusa. They were all. . . Doing well. They celebrated Hinata's birthday at the beach, and on midnight, they went to a bother and get their asses waisted.

The end :)

Happiest birthday to our lovely walking sun, Hinata Shouyo!

Also, happiest birthdays to those who shares a birthday as Shouyo and to those birthdays are in June!
