Yachi sat in her seat, shifting from side to side as she waited for Shimizu to come pick her up. Laying in front of her was the club form sheet, with nothing but her name filled out. 

She stared at it with dread, the reality of what she had done finally sinking in, creating a pit in her stomach.

'Of all the times to space out when someone was talking to me'

Yachi was still a bit unsure what she signed up for. All she knew was it was for a volleyball club. More specifically the men's.

Anxiously she bit her lip, until she heard a knock at the classroom doorway.

The door opened to reveal the 3rd year who had come to pick up the blonde. With a small smile on her face, Kiyoko waved at Yachi, signaling for her to come over.

When Yachi finally made her way to the door the two started walking down the hallway in silence. Yachi squirmed, a bit unsure of what to say to the manager.

Finally, in a moment of confidence, Yachi pipped up in a small voice.

"Um Shimizu.... what is it exactly that I'm signing up for..?"

The black haired beauty responded in a calm voice.

"Well right now you're going to do a trial period to see if you want to be a manager for the boy's volleyball team. If you decided to join you'd help me during practice doing stuff similar to notes, filling up water bottles, cleaning jersey's and all things like that."

Yachi nodded along the entire time.

"Ah I see. Thank you, I'll try my best."

Kiyoko smiled at her. 

"You'll do just fine."

...

By the time they got to the gym doors Yachi was quaking in her shoes. A huge knot had formed in her stomach, releasing a storm of butterflies.

'You got this Yachi, it's ok they won't kill you'

She carefully looked at Kiyoko as a sign of reassurance, who in turn gave her a calming smile, as if to say 'It'll be okay'.

That was the only thing that helped.

"Are you ready Yachi? They're a bit much and I apologize in advance for anything that happens."

With that the doors of the gym slid open, revealing the awaiting boys.

Yachi hid behind the 3rd year, blocking herself from view. This was a VERY bad idea. Gosh, how she wished she could run away.

"-her."

Yachi looked up to see Kiyoko revealing herself to the rest of the team. She almost had a heart attack. 

They were all so tall, not one being below 6 foot (at the very least). A gloomy wall loomed over her, adorned by a beard.

"Hello I'm Asahi Azumane, it's nice to meet you."

A small squeak escaped Yachi's lips and she quickly covered her mouth, before falling into a salute.

"I'm - I'm Hitoka Yachi sir! You can call me Yachi! I'm in class 1-5! P-Please don't eat me I won't taste very good!"

The boy in question stared at her in confusion, until an angel pushed him away.

"Asahi you're scaring her! You too imposing, back up!"

The poor big man shuffled away, a down trodden look cast on his face. He mumbled under his breath so only those close to him could hear.

"I didn't mean to scare her."

 They simply gave him looks of sympathy and patted him on the back.

The grey-haired angel from before turned to Yachi, a smile adoring his features.

"I'm Koshi Sugawara, but you can call me Suga, Sugawara, or Sugawara-Senpai, whatever makes you comfortable."

Yachi nodded and bowed in greeting, visibly more relaxed.

"Um, thank you for having me." she stuttered.

He simply grinned in return before turning to the rest of the team.

"Come on guys introduce yourselves!"

The next few seconds were a blur to Yachi as countless members introduced themselves. She panicked, unable to keep up.

'How in the world am I going to remember their names?!'

Finally, it came to the last one. Mentally tired and stressed Yachi let out the brightest smile she could, using up the rest of her energy.

"H-Hi! I'm Hitoka Yachi, thanks for having me!"

She opened her eyes to see dark green hair. Lowering her gaze she noticed freckles and a stunned smile with wide eyes.

Her brain stopped before the pieces slowly clicked together.

'Green hair.....freckles......juice......OH MY GOSH'

She finally looked him in the eyes to see the same dark hazel from that horrible afternoon.

"J-juice....."

She quickly slapped a hand over her mouth, realizing her little slip up. She bowed quickly.

"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to say that!"

She heard a nervous chuckle and looked up once again to see the boy waving his hands quickly.

"Um haha it's ok! It's nice to meet you too! I'm Tadashi Yamaguchi!"

He gave her a similarly bright nervous smile before giving a small bow.

Yachi, cheeks flushed a vibrant pink, bowed back.

"It - It's nice to meet you too."


And so their story begins.
