"hi rudolph." you greeted atsumu with a laugh, poking your finger against the tip of his nose, which was tinged a light shade of red by the winter air.
"oh, shut up." atsumu retorted, though the corners of his mouth curved up into a small smile. you leaned in, gently booping his nose with your finger again, causing him to crack into a wide grin.
he pulled your hand away from his face before you could squish his nose for a third time, opting to fit it snugly in his own. "i couldn’t find my scarf." he explained with a sigh, "i swear i saw it in the closet just the other day."
"oh?" you bit the inside of your cheek, quickly clearing your throat with an innocent smile. "well, that's weird."
"i know, right?" atsumu exclaimed, waving his arms around dramatically, "it was right in front of me—"
atsumu's voice slowly trailed off and he stopped dead in his tracks, body frozen still on the sidewalk. his eyes bore straight into yours, mouth agape with incredulity as his gaze slowly trailed down your features to your neck, where a warm scarf happily resided upon.
not just any scarf.
his scarf.
you watched his eyes slowly widening in realisation, comically, even, as they darted in disbelief between the scarf hanging around your neck, to your eyes, and back.
a wave of laughter escaped from you at the look of blatant shock flashing across his face. looping your arms around his neck, you pulled him down to press a kiss onto his flushed nose, then a peck on his cheek, and another one onto his slightly chapped lips.
"hey!" atsumu grumbled against your lips, gently pushing you away with a slight frown. "you took my scarf?"
"it was cold." you explained with a sheepish smile, arms still looped loosely around his neck while his now rested on your hips. "plus your scarf smells nice."
atsumu shook his head with a defeated smile. "what am i going to do with you." he muttered under his breath.
"you could give me your scarf forever." you suggested, sweeping a few stray strands of hair away from his face.
"you wish. buy your own one."
"that's mean, 'tsumu." you chided lightheartedly.
"meaner than leaving me to freeze to death?" atsumu questioned, cocking an eyebrow at you.
"fine." you huffed, reaching up for the scarf that hung securely around your neck.
his brows furrowed together as he watched you unravel half of the scarf from your neck. before he could voice his confusion, or rather, his concern that you should keep wearing the scarf in this cold weather, you tugged him closer by the collar of his jacket, successfully wrapping the other half of the scarf around his neck.
"so we're both warm." you announced proudly, your voice slightly muffled by the scarf.
atsumu chuckled, a tender smile adorning his features. he pulled you in by the waist, effectively closing in the distance between the two of you. "it's not going to work like this." he whispered. his forehead was now pressed against yours, puffs of his warm breath mingling together with yours in the cold air.
"then what do you propose?"
he smirked, a glint of mischief sparkling in his eyes as he suddenly turned around without warning. crouching down a little, he picked you up onto his back in one swift motion, tucking your legs just above his hips. somehow, even with all that movement, his scarf still lay firmly above both of your shoulders.
"does this work?" he asked. though he had already begun to take a few strides forward.
"yeah. i guess it does." you laughed, resting your head comfortably on his shoulder.
it was at that moment that atsumu decided he didn't mind if you stole his scarf. he didn't mind it at all. as long as you were willing to share it with him.
