Kindichi’s Pov:
It was this afternoon that I got the text. It was also this afternoon when I agreed to this hangout. And now it was this afternoon where I found myself walking down the street watching the sun peeking through the beautiful pink cherry blossom trees with the light wind blowing against my face and calming me as I tried to ignore this weird feeling as I walked to the park.
I closed my eyes, taking a deep breath and listening to the people around me. Friends racing by laughing as they rode their bikes, Lovers flirting and having a good time as they enjoyed this gorgeous weather on their dates, and even small families laughing together and just enjoying each other's company.
I thought this afternoon to be one of the better ones, even as I walked to the park to hang out with Kageyama. I didn't care for the guy or even like him anymore. He hurt my feelings, he hurt the whole team's feelings so we hurt his.
People say two wrongs don't make a right but I think they were wrong because we may have lost that game but we proved our point. At least that's what I've always thought. I still don't want to admit it to myself but I think we might have made things worse than what they were before.
I don't know why but why I was slightly excited for this hangout. I felt more confident knowing that Kunimi was going to be there which was why I wore the outfit that my sister picked out for me. A white hoodie with a floral print jacket over top, gray sweatpants with a blue line down the side, and finally some normal non-laced brown shoes. It looked surprisingly nice on me seeing as this wasn't the outfit I would choose.
I finally walk into the park and begin looking around for Kageyama or Kunimi, secretly hoping I would bump into Kunimi first. But no. I was walking when in the distance I saw Kageyama sitting on a bench, or at least someone who looked like Kageyama.
I carefully walked up and smiled shyly, “Hey Kageyama...you look nice.” I say hesitantly as I rub the back of my neck a little nervously.
He looks up and me and for once in a long time, he smiles a bit. And boy was it enough to make my face heat up. Kages was never the type to smile but here he was and he looked adorab-wait...what?! He's not adorable, not in a hundred years. He's still the self-centered king from not too long ago. No one can change that quickly.
I must have been lost in my thoughts because Kageyama is now standing and waving a hand in front of my face. “Um hello?”
I flinch slightly but smile back “sorry did you say something before I spaced out?” I ask, feeling slightly bad. He nods a bit and continues.
“Yeah, I just said that you looked nice as well, didn't know you owned a jacket like that.” He said being oddly nice. I don't know why but this just felt a little wrong. Where were the annoyed looks, the scowls, and the self-centeredness?
“Yeah you wouldn't know, it's not like you cared to hang out outside of school...and...it’s not mine...it’s my sisters. She let me borrow it.” I said though it sounded a lot ruder than I had intended. “Though I don't know why this isn't that important.” That seemed to hit him hard. Maybe I should tone down my anger? No. Not just because he's all of the sudden “changed”. I don't buy it. At least not yet. “I didn't know you dressed like that either though,” I say trying to change the subject off of me.
Kageyama sighed a bit “I usually don't but Hinata insisted that I dressed nicer than normal.” He said, but that name made me slightly annoyed. That shrimp? Why is he hanging out with the king, and why was I upset about it? Maybe just because he’s the reason for the king's sudden change. Yeah, that had to be it.
I was about to answer when Kunimi walked up with a quiet “Hey.” and a wave. Kageyama and I looked at each other and then at Kunimi.
“Hey!” I say first and then Kageyama follows with a “ how are you?”
“I'm fine I guess,” he says in his very monotone voice. “Why are you guys so dressed up though?” He asked since he was the only one wearing a pretty normal outfit. He wore an oversized yellow hoodie, beige cargo shorts, black tennis shoes, and a black baseball hat.
Kageyama and I both sigh and shrug “No clue” we both say in unison. It was a little weird but a little funny at the same time so I allowed myself a small smile. Kunimi seemed slightly annoyed and rolled his eyes.
“So where are we going anyway?” Kunimi asked, slumping a bit, clearly not excited for this day.
Kageyama smiled a bit “I'm glad you asked! It's no big deal but you'll see when we get there!” he said and then turned around and started walking away. I and Kunimi both looked at each other highly confused but then shrugged and began to follow him.
