"What are you guys doing?"
Two heads turn to source of the sound to see a fairly tall and handsome man staring at them, eyebrows raised.
The said man sighs and walked towards the carrot-blueberry duo placing a hand of both shoulders. "Look, I don't know what happened but, if you angered Daichi then, I'm not helping you." Patting their shoulders the upperclassman walks away leaving the duo stunned.
"Imahei! You made it!" Tanaka exclaimed, jogging his way over to the 'Imahei' person. "Yo, Baldy, how's it going?"
"I told you to stop calling me that!"
"Since when? Couldn't here you since I'm pretty sure that your lovesick voice to Shimizu broke my eardrums a long time ago."
"Why you-"
"Stop it you two."
A gray haired male walks over to the two and puts a hand between them, trying to stop anything from going further.
"But Suga-san!" Tanaka whines, but is immediately shut up by the look of 'Suga-san'.
"Sugawara!" The said male turns his head to see the face of Yukio Imahei. He smiles gently and greets him.
"Ah, Yukio, How are you?"
"I'm good."
"Wow talk about favoritism."
"Shut it Tanaka."
"Yes sir."

"Hey, How much do you bet that those two will ask for a match?" Tanaka whispers to Yukio.
"Those 'two'? Oh, you mean the ones outside? I don't really know. What even happened?"
"They had an argument and knocked off the Vice Principal's toupee off of his head and on to Daichi-san's."
"Tanaka! I told you to never speak of that again!"
"EEK! S-sorry Daichi-san!"
Yukio laughs at how easily scared the baldy was earning a glare from Tanaka. Just about when he was about to yell at the green haired male, the gym doors burst open.
"1, 2 ,3- Please have a match with us! Us versus you senpais!"
"Woah! They actually did it! BAHAHAHAH"
"Did they just... count?"
Tanaka cackles while Yukio just stands there trying to figure out if they counted or not.
"And what if you lose?" All attention was brought back to Daichi as he crosses his arms and looks down at the two.
"We'll take any punishment you give us!"
"Really? That sounds fine to me."
Daichi says, thinking about their decision before adding, "There are other first years joining us, why don't you play a 3v3 against them? Tanaka will be on your team."
"EHHHH?! Daichi-san! Why me?!"
"You said you didn't hate people like them didn't you?"
"But I don't wanna have anything to with them either!"
"Huh, even though I thought Tanaka was REALLY good at taking care of children, I guess I was wrong."
"AGH- OKAY LETS DO THIS! AREN'T YOU HAPPY?! HEY!"
The second year was easily tricked into agreeing with the captain just by that.
"How'd he manage to agree that quick?"
"It's Tanaka, what do you expect?"
"Hm, you're right."

"Not being the setter anymore? That sounds harsh Daichi-san."
"They said any punishment didn't they?"
It was evening and everyone that was in gym were cleaning up after a day of hard practice and events. Sighing for about the 20th time this day, Yukio puts in his headphones and plays his playlist.
'Suffocate - Hayd (or Hayde?)'
Throughout the song, Yukio hums the melody. The lyrics hit home, honestly.
"Hey Yukio, We're getting meat buns later and Daichi is paying for it, wanna join?"
Right before he could agree, Yukio remembers his mother's words.
"Erm- sorry, I can't. I'm busy."
"Oh, well I guess it can't be helped. See you tomorrow!" A gentle smile settled on Sugawara's face as he bid his goodbyes before walking away.
"Bye..." The male protagonist sighs before packing his things and heading home. Of course he wanted to go, but can he? No. He has to obey his mother's rules unless he wants to end up like his other siblings.
When he reached his apartment, the Imahei took out his keys and unlocked the door. He took off his shoes and placed his bag on a nearby chair.
Suddenly, his phone rang. Oh no, it was his mother. Kanare Imahei.
Hesitantly picking up, Yukio greets his mother. "Hello mother."
"Hi Yukio! I'm so glad you answered my call!"
"Why wouldn't I answer your call, mother?"
"It's nothing anyways, next Sunday, I want you to go to a restaurant and I'll send you the adress but, I have BIG news!"
"News? What do you mean mother?"
"It's a surprise! Anyways, you have to be there 3:00p.m. sharp you hear me? You don't want to disobey mother's rules do you?"
Her sweet and angelic tone suddenly turned into a bitter and threatening one. Yukio gulped, he obviously agreed.
"Good, I'll meet you there! Ciao!" With that, the woman hanged up and Yukio released a breath he didn't even know he held in.
The boy quickly added the date to all his calendars not wanting to forget.
"I can't forget. I can't. I don't want to end up like Hayato and Hanare. Who knows what she'll have in store for me this time..."
Not wanting to think about all these thoughts anymore, Yukio quickly got ready for bed and tucked himself in.
"Goodnight world."
