    Were you a cat in your past life?

    He has been watching you very closely, making him look like a stalker to most of his friends and even his coach. They all weren’t expecting such behavior from the mighty Tetsuro Kuroo, but they should have expected that he would find you eccentric.

    You resembled a cat, in his eyes. Even though you said you liked dogs more, you acted like a lazy cat.

    He saw you getting sleepy thanks to the warm sun, and how flexible and agile you were in P.E., even when you spent your time flinching and running away from sports balls. You were also smart, but you preferred to spend your time sleeping or drawing. You reminded him of his friend Kenma, but you weren't as socially awkward as he was.

    He has clear memories of you simply staring at a red laser on the wall, telling him you didn’t like pickles, or simply watching the birds like they were the most interesting creatures ever.

    You even carelessly called him by his first name. You didn't care if you both were close or not; you called him "Tetsu" or "Tetsuro" when you wanted his attention. It only confused him more.

    Today, he has finally decided to confront you. He won’t let his friends keep calling him a madman for being curious about you, he won’t let his coach continue teasing him about ‘petting your head in your sleep’.

    The tall male walks outside the volleyball gym, hands in his pockets, until he sees you sitting on the floor near the vending machine, your back to him. This is his chance.

    He silently approaches you, finally standing behind you, until he suddenly grabs you by under the arms, lifting you in the air just like he would with a real cat. You’re small, so it’s easy for him to manhandle you.

    “Today you're coming to watch us practice, or else I'll tell Coach Nekomata you've volunteered to be a cheerleader." He’s as serious as ever. You don't understand why he's threatening you like this; you were just watching the ants walk on the concrete.

    His idea is to get you to work for the volleyball team in front of his teammates so they finally realize you really are a cat in disguise.

    As he holds you up at arm’s length, still with your back facing him, he decides to shake you, watching some rocks and flowers fall from your pockets. How weird are you? You make him feel very curious.
