Prompt: Colors or Elements

Word Count: 553

Note: Late to KageHina week by one day whoops. In my defense I was exhausted by prom on Saturday and ended up sleep the day away yesterday. I also have finals later this week lol what am I doing writing fics all week long when I should be studying. I'll try to publish the second prompt later today. (Edit: I decided to put all the prompts together in a multi-chapter fic.)

It has been universally agreed upon that if Hinata Shouyou was an element it would be the wind. Everything about the orange-haired boy screamed it from his incredible agility and flexible physic to his whimsical personality. Anyone looking to quickly give him a label has easily used this and Hinata would wholeheartedly agree (mostly because the title "Wind of Karasuno" sounded almost as cool as being called the "Ace" or "Guardian Deity").

Labeling Kageyama though, came with more opinionated debates.

Those who have first met the raven-haired teen or have begrudgingly known him during his "King of the Court" days would say that he like a fire. He seemed the type to demand his spectacular tosses be received with only the finest spikes like how a gluttonous campfire would only stay lit when coaxed with the best quality items if fed constantly. His gigantic ego didn't help much with this comparison as it did shoo away many who were intimidated and burned most people that got too close for comfort.

His high school teammates and serious opponents would compare him to water: someone who had a flexible mindset and was able to change the flow of the game set under the right condition. Kageyama Tobio's title as a genius setter wasn't just for show after all and anyone who ever saw his play would have to grudgingly acknowledge this. (Although those at Karasuno would have to say if he was a form of water he would be ice because although he has opened up more when it came to the court he was still quite stubborn outside of it.)

And although he would agree with all those reasons, Hinata firmly believed the Kageyama was the earth. Kageyama was sturdy as a setter and supported everyone on the court like the earth, simple as that. Hinata guesses that by that logic it would mean that any skilled setter like the grand king would fit this description but it was just different with Kageyama because he was his earth. Without the raven-haired teen there as his partner in crime Hinata wasn't sure how far his raw talents alone would take him (it certainly wouldn't have lead to him to be a first year regular as the "strongest decoy" that he's sure of) and for that he's grateful—

A hand roughly smacks into the orange-haired teen's shoulder and he is pulled out of his thoughts as he rubs his now sore shoulder and glares (more like pouts) at the offender.

Kageyama fixates him with an intimidating look. "Get your head out of the clouds idiot and take this practice more seriously. Interhigh is soon and we need to polish this nonexistent skills of yours."

Before Hinata can make a reply and start their usual banter the raven-head already turns his focus towards volleyball and gets in position to toss the ball his way and by instinct he is closing his eyes, fully trusting his teammate. He feels his hand come in contact with the ball and opens his eyes to see it sailing gracefully across the opponent's side of the court. Even with Kageyama's back towards him as he grabs another ball, Hinata smiles gratefully at the earth that reassures his wind that there will always be someone there to support him.
