The bell rang at the end of the day, making Y/N groan.

"Stupid Tsukishima" she mumbled.

"Says the girl who was late and landed a detention on the first day of school" he retorted.

Y/N's eye twitched when she realised that he heard her.

"Ok, the being late part was my fault but the detention wasn't" she pouted.

"If you didn't want detention, you should have told the principal the real reason why you disrupted the class" he said.

Y/N's eye twitched again, knowing that he was right.

She quickly packed up her stuff and left the class without a word.

She raced through the school, trying to find the boys volleyball gym.

She heard the sound of balls bouncing from one of the buildings and slowly walked toward it.

She peaked through the door and saw a few boys playing volleyball.
She smiled to herself, happy that she found it, before walking in quietly.

"Come on, just set for me!" Shouted an orange haired boy.

"No!" Shouted a tall black haired boy.

Y/N looked around the gym and spotted a bald boy, silver haired boy, and a plain looking boy.

She began making her way to them, careful to not get hit by one of the flying balls.

She tapped on the silver haired boys shoulder.

"Excuse me" she said shyly.
He turned around and looked down at her before smiling.

"Hello, are you lost?" He asked.

"If this is the boys volleyball gym, then no." She said. "My name is Y/N L/N. I have to clean the gym everyday for two weeks as detention" she explained.

"It's nice to meet you, I'm Sugawara Koushi. Nice to meet you." He smiled more.
"You can sit on the benches until the end of practice"

Y/N nodded and began making her way to the benches, when someone called out.

"Watch out!" Y/N turned to face the person that shouted and saw a ball flying towards her.
She froze, waiting for the ball to hit her and closed her eyes.

Suddenly, she was engulfed in a large shadow and heard the sound of a ball bouncing.

She opened her eyes to see Tsukishima's back, his arms raised and the ball bouncing on the floor infront of him.

"Thank you" she huffed and moved to stand infront of him.
As she did, she noticed a scowl on his face and a red mark on his forehead.
Y/N had to suppress a laugh.

"Are you ok?" She asked.
Tsukishima just nodded before walking onto the court.

Y/N frowned and sat down on the bench.

A few more people arrived not long later.
Y/N sat and watched them play, smiling to herself.

Y/N had learnt all of their names as they introduced themselves to her already.

"Alright, let's take a break!" Daichii shouted, and the rest of the team nodded tiredly.

Y/N watched as Tsukishima sat down and began drinking from his water bottle.

Her hands dove into her bag and pulled out her art supplies and began drawing him.

The sweat dripping down his face and body made his skin glisten in the light.

Y/N quickly began to draw, not wanting to lose this opportunity.

She sketched out his basic shape before adding in more detail.
Her hand moved quickly, and carefully to not smudge the graphite of the pencil.

Within a few minutes, she was done and admired her drawing.

The team got up and continued to practice.

This time, Y/N couldn't take her eyes off of Tsukishima.
Although he was skinny, he still had some muscle.
She watched in awe as his muscled flexed when he blocked.

She picked up her pencil and began to draw him again. This time in the blocking position.
Although, this proved to be very difficult because he kept moving.

The boys made their way off the court and into the changerooms.
Y/N quickly stood up and began putting away the volleyballs and putting away the net.

Just as she was about to start mopping, the boys, including Tsukishima came out of the changerooms.

"Looks like we've got ourselves a maid" he sneered, locking eyes with Y/N.

Y/N growled but kept her mouth shut and began to mop as the boys grabbed their things.

Sugawara sat down on the bench while everyone else left.

"Why are you still here?" She asked.

"I'll wait for you to finish so that I can lock up" he said.

"I'm sorry that you have to wait, I won't take long" she said.

Sugawara smiled at her. "Don't worry about it."

~

Y/N put away the mop and grabbed her bag, leaving the gym, with Suga behind her.

Y/N began making her way home until she heard footsteps behind her.
She knows that it wasn't Suga because he walked in the opposite direction as her.

She picked up her pace, hoping to lose them but then the footsteps sped up as well.
Y/N quickly turned around, scared but then sighed in relief.

"Why are you following me?" She asked and stopped walking.

"I live next door to you, I go the same way" said Tsukishima.

"But why are you still here?"

"Because I love school so much that I just didn't want to leave" he said sarcastically, making Y/N huff.

"If you wanted to walk home with me, you could've just told me" she sighed.

"I don't want to walk home with you" he retorted.

Y/N sighed again and decided to just keep quiet.

A few minutes later, Y/N spoke up.

"Do you want to study with me?" She asked, making Tsukishima turn to face here.

"Why would I want to do that?"

"I don't know." She mumbled.

"You just want to draw me again" he chuckled and Y/N's cheeks turned pink.

"Y-yeah" she admitted.

Tsukishima rolled his eyes and noticed that they were about to reach their houses.

He grabbed her wrist and pulled her down his driveway and up to his front door.

"What are you-"

"You wanted to draw me, here's your chance when we get inside" he cut her off and opened the door.

Y/N took off her school shoes and went inside.

She set her bag and shoes down at the front door.

Tsukishima did the same before going to his room without a word.

Y/N grabbed her school books and her art supplies before following him.

Y/N went into his room, seeing him sitting on the edge of his bed.

"So.... Um... What now?"
