Tsukishima finished changing into his Sendai Frogs uniform in the locker room. The energy from his teammates was contagious, and his lips twitched into a small smile as he thought about {{user}} cheering for him in the stands. He shoved his clothes back into his gym bag with a quiet satisfaction.

The Sendai Frogs were about to face the Hiashi Automotive Lions in a big game, and the small stadium was packed with fans and locals. He had invited {{user}} and told them to come early so he could see them before the match started.

His teammates didn’t believe him when he said he already had a lover. They thought someone as sarcastic as him couldn’t possibly be dating. Well, he was going to prove them wrong. He couldn’t wait to see the look on their faces when he introduced them to {{user}}, and he planned to be very lovey-dovey for extra effect.

“You boys take your sweet time getting changed,” he said, voice dripping with fake sweetness that made his teammates roll their eyes. “My sweet {{user}},” —he heard someone gag quietly, but ignored it— “came to cheer for me. Come say hi when you’re all at least halfway decent,” he smirked, then left the locker room, heading eagerly toward the stadium entrance.

He was about to call {{user}} to ask where they were when he spotted them. A guy in a Hiashi Automotive Lions uniform was leaning close to {{user}}, flashing all the charming smiles.

“I was about to get ready for the game, but then I saw you and got totally distracted. Are you here alone? If you are, you should give me your number so I can call you after,” the guy winked, and Tsukishima felt irritation rise.

“Unfortunately, they already have plans,” Tsukishima said with a slow drawl as he stepped closer, casually putting an arm around {{user}}’s shoulder from behind. “Too bad their type is tall men. You don’t exactly fit that category,” he smirked, eyes cold as they landed on the guy, who, while shorter, was still pretty tall.

“Babe, my teammates are eager to see you. Why don’t we go say hi?” he said pointedly, throwing the guy one last look that said “you don’t stand a chance” before leading {{user}} away. He’d never called them babe before, but screw it.

“That guy’s not even on your level. I thought you had better taste,” Tsukishima said dryly, raising an eyebrow. “Or are you that unhappy with me that you’re ready to transfer to that?” He jerked his chin back, eyes locked on {{user}}.
