"COME ON PLEEEEEAASSEEE?! i'm begging you here" noya sighed once more.

"noya, i've told you i'm not going to be able to keep up. i've only played volleyball like twice before. and that was with my brother who, may i add, is worse than me." i defended. certainly, i would love to play with him, he wanted me to work on him with his recieves, but not being skilled in the area of volleyball, i was trying to change the subject and politely decline.

"it doesn't matter if you suck. i'm asking for your help because i want you to help me. " he put emphasis on the 'you' part and made a said face.

"your lucky your cute" i hung my head in defeat. "but if i hear you laugh at me because i'm bad, i'm gonna tackle you and beat you up" i narrowed my eyes seriously at him.

"i'll try not to, but you know i make a lot of jokes, so i can't promise too much." he wore a crooked and playful smile on his face.

"okay, i'll go get changed" i sighed. even though i looked upset on the outside, i was actually quite excited on the inside, just a little nervous. it had always intimidated me how focused he was when it came to volleyball. not to mention how cool he looked making his receives and digs. he was amazing, and i certainly couldn't compete when it came to volleyball.

nonetheless, i pulled on some flexible sport shorts, and a slightly loose shirt and made my way back downstairs to put on some sneakers.

"okay, you ready?" i asked yuu.

"mhm mhm! IM SO EXCITED YOU FINALLY ARE COMING WITH ME ITS LIKE... MY TWO FAVORITE THINGS TOGETHER! VOLLEYBALL AND MY
S/O!" he exclaimed making me laugh at his enthusiasm. it truly was nice to have him around all the time. he was like my charging station when my battery was low; always full of energy.

not long after, we started to make our way to a nearby gym that left their doors open on the weekends.

"i know you normally watch my games and stuff but your finals gonna get to see my rolling thunder up close! aren't you excited?!" he was bouncing similar to a child given the permission to buy whatever the please in a candy store.

"of course in excited bubs, just,  nervous as well i guess. the only things i know about volleyball are things you've taught me, or things i've learned from watching you." i replied. "you look so cool on the court whenever i watch you play and it makes me jealous how fast you are."

"come on, don't talk me up that much." he puffed out his chest obviously liking the praise. "plus don't be nervous i'm not gonna judge you. i know you don't play volleyball so it's fine. plus that means that i can't teach you stuff which makes it even more fun!" he sent me another smile.

"okay. then let's do this!" i yelled finally feeling encouraged, jumping around with him.

"we're gonna look so cool. your gonna send me a pass like 'BOOM' and i'm gonna return it like 'HIYA' and then-"

"yuu are you okay?!" i bent over to look at him, and offered him my hand for help up.

he was looking at me the whole time he was talking completely ignoring the pole directly in front of the path, and his face.

"HAHAHAHA" he rolled over onto his side laughing hysterically.

"umm, yuu?" i furrowed my brows confused.

"THAT WAS HILARIOUS" he exclaimed again. people from across the street were looking at us like weirdos.

"babe, people are staring" i chuckled nervously.

"OF COURSE THEYRE STARING. ITS BECAUSE YOUR HOT!" he yelled again.

"did you hit your head that hard? stand up let me check you." i turned him onto his back again and pulled him up.

he didn't seem to have any cuts on his face but there would more than likely be a bruise on his forehead the next morning.

"you look fine do you feel dizzy?" i checked.

"nope, i'm perfect. alright let's go to the gym now" he dragged my hand and we ran the rest of the way. luckily it wasn't too far.

••

once we got there he started warming up a bit and i did the same so we wouldn't get hurt. we stretched some and then he started taking out some balls. (please why does my mind think this way 😭)

"okay so show me how you would do a normal underhand receive" yuu instructed. "okay instead of that, try bending you knees a little more and...."

we spent the next couple hours playing volleyball in the gym. he didn't miss a chance to try and impress me with any cool moves that he knew how to do. but other than that, he had actually taught me a ton of other things i hadn't know about playing volleyball. it was so tiring, but also very fun in the end. not that anything with yuu was boring.

the whole time i was there i never felt judged by him. no matter how embarrassed i was about my lack of skill, he didn't hesitate to teach me the right way to do something new. or even correct me in the nicest way possible, while making some jokes along the way.

"i still can't believe you tripped while running for the ball" i cackled.

"shut up! at least i didn't get a bajillion points scored on me because i wasn't paying attention!" yuu shot back at me with sass.

"well maybe if you didn't look so attractive while playing i would have been able to FOCUS!" i yelled. damn it, i didn't plan on telling him that's why i got hit.

"wait what?" he looked at me shocked, his snarky attitude gone.

"let's go get some pizza" i tried to change the subject so he wouldn't tease me about it further.

"OOU YEAH PIZZA TIME!" he ran to my house with me right behind him.
