《The Fading Sunshine》Chapter 17

***Hinata's POV
I woke up the next morning still wrapped in Kageyama's arms. Sunlight leaked in through the windows and lit up the room. I didn't want to wake up Kageyama so I decided to stay here until he woke up. I didn't mind anyways. His cozy hold was calming anyways.
After about 30 minutes Kageyama began to squirm. He opened is eyes and looked down at me. "So how long have you been awake?" He said with a small laugh.
"About half an hour." I responded.
"You could've gotten up if you wanted too." He said as he sat up and laughed once more.
"Well I didn't mind. I didn't wanna wake you up. Besides, It was comforting...." I said. I looked down at the ground, I could feel my face becoming warm with embarrassment.
"Well, I hoped it would help. You seemed pretty shaken up last night." He said. "Do you wanna head down to the cafeteria for breakfast, the teams probably already down there."
"Yeah, lets go." I said as we both stood up to leave.
When we reached the cafeteria we got our food and joined the team at the table. I sat next to Noya and Kageyama sat in-between me and Yamaguchi.
"It's about time you two sleepy heads woke up." Tanaka said.
"For real, we were worried you were going to sleep through the first game." Noya said followed by a loud laugh.
"Well actually... Hinatas not feeling too well this morning so he can't play in the games today." Kageyama said. I looked at him confused. What is he talking about. I mean I'm sore but besides that I feel fine.
He looked back at me and said "So after we get done eating, I have to get him back to the room." He looked at me with serious eyes.
"HINATAAAAA... You pick the most inconvenient times to be sickkkk." Noya whined.
"I know, i'm sorry guys maybe i'll feel better tomorrow." I said as Kageyama stood up, which meant it was time for him to take me back up to the room.
"Bye guys, do good." I said as I waved.
Kageyama and I walked down the hall and got onto the elevator.
"What was that about I feel fine. I can play." I said getting aggravated that he was making me sit out today.
"No Hinata, you can't. The nurse said last night that you should sit out for a day or two. Besides, you're going to tell me what's going on. Daichi and Suga know that i'm staying up here with you today. So I've got all day." Kageyama said in a serious tone.

"So if I tell you, are you going to let me play tomorrow?" I asked
"It depends on how you're feeling tomorrow." he said.
"But I feel fine now." I said
"You're not playing today. That's final." He said looking back at me.
The elevator door opened and we stepped out into the hallway. We walked to the room and locked the door so no one could barge in.
"Hinata you have to tell me what's going on with Koki. You've obviously been upset for the past couple of days and I want to help, but I can't if you're not honest with me." Kageyama said calmly.
"D-do I have to?" I stuttered. The thought of telling him about everything made me feel sick.
"We're not leaving until you tell me." Kageyama said.
"O-okay." I said as I looked down. Maybe he could help me. Maybe telling him will make things better. "Well, I recommend you sit down. It's a rather long story..." I said.
He sat down on the futon across from me and looked at me attentively. "When ever you're ready." He said.
"Well I guess it all started the night I stayed in Nekoma's room."
"The night we all went looking for you?" He asked.
"Yes." I said. "I was on my way to the bathroom and I felt like someone was watching me. I looked around multiple times but never saw someone. Until I turned around and was grabbed from behind. I yelled out for help but he hit me and told me to be quiet so this don't have to be worse than it had to be."
"He who?" He asked.
"Koki..." I said and I broke eye contact with him and looked down at my pillow. "He shoved me into an empty room and he... He... Assaulted me...." I said. I grimaced at the word. I hated saying it. It sounded so disgusting . It made me feel dirty. "After he finished the first time he hit me... Multiple times... In the side and on my face."
"Is that why you already had the bruises on your abdomen?" Kageyama asked.
"It is." I said. "He did this so many times I stopped counting. It felt like it went on for hours. When I would cry or gag he would tell me that I should be enjoying it. He said he knew I was gay and that it should feel good to me." I looked down as I started to tear up.

"He left me in the room alone after he got done. As he was leaving he looked at me and laughed. He told me he would see me later. I stayed in the room and just laid in the floor for what felt like forever. Then I got up and walked to the bathroom and just sat in the floor in front of a sink. I just broke down. I felt like giving up. My whole body hurt and I wanted to end it all right then and there." I said. I took a minute to regain my composure. My hands were shaking and my breath was short.
"Then Kuroo walked in and helped me clean up and took me back to Suga in the room. Suga didn't want me to be bombarded with questions by all of you so Kuroo offered to let me stay in Nekoma's room. So I slept there for the night and Kuroo helped me through the night. The next day at the game I had another break down but you already know that. But you don't know why." I said as I looked at him. His eyes were wide in disbelief. He didn't say a word but I didn't expect him to. What could he possibly say to make this better.
"When you got upset at me for missing the ball you called me a "little shit", and when you said that it took me back to the night before. Koki would yell at me and call me that if I showed any signs of not enjoying what was happening... And hearing that just sent me into panic. I broke down..."
I paused and looked at Kageyama but he wasn't looking at me. He was looking at the futon with tears falling from his eyes. I don't know how to comfort him so I continued.
"...and Kuroo rushed to my side because he had known I was already upset. He took me to the Nurses office because..."
I stopped. Kuroo was the only one that knew about the cuts on my arm. That was why carried me to the nurses office in the first place, because of the bloody bandages. I don't know if I want Kageyama to see this side of me yet.
"Because why?" Kageyama said.
I stayed silent for a moment. "Because..." I felt the tears start to pool again. "Because of these..." I said as I pulled both of my sleeves up to my shoulders, exposing all of my cuts and scars.
He just looked at me with shocked eyes as more tears streamed down his face.
"Some of them had re opened and were bleeding through the bandages I had on them and so he carried me to the nurse. But while we were there he demanded I tell him what was going on. I told him Everything I've told you thus far." I said and looked at him.
"Why wouldn't you come to me for help? Why wouldn't you trust me to help you with this?" Kageyama asked. He looked beyond hurt. I didn't know what to say to him.
"Why would you let Kuroo help you before me? I would've helped in anyway I could Hinata." Kageyama said as his voice cracked from crying.
"Because I thought you all would blame me for what happened. I didn't stop him. I gave in. I gave up. I thought you would all think that I was pathetic." I said softly as I started to sob.
"Hinata, this isn't your fault. It's Koki's. He did this to you. You gave in because you were in pain. And just because your gay doesn't mean you should want him. Assault is assault, it doesn't matter if you're gay or not." Kageyama said.
"He made me feel like what happened was my fault Kageyama... I didn't want any of you to think I'm weak..." I cried.
Kageyama scooted towards me and pulled me onto his lap. He put his arms around me and hugged me tighter than I had ever been held before. We both cried into each other's shoulder, comforting one another.
At that moment I got a message. I pulled away from Kageyama and checked my phone. It was from Koki.
"Last night wasn't very fun for me, I guess you'll have to make it up to me later ;)"
I handed my phone to Kageyama. He read the message and he turned off the phone. His face went cold.
"I won't let him hurt you ever again..." He said as he embraced me again.
