No one's POV

After that whole fiasco, they went home preparing the questions they were going to ask the middle blockers and were still processing everything they saw. The two middle blockers also went home without a single thought in mind, just being content with the day. Though Tsukishima wouldn't admit this but the two were also happy they got to see the two cats after a long time.

As the night passed and the sun rose, everyone was waking up from their slumber getting ready for the day and building up any energy they would have to use during morning practice. Soon they arrive at school heading to practice. For certain members questions were circulating their heads for the two middle blockers. On the other hand, the other members, well their heads were empty.

As usual Hinata and Kageyama were the first to arrive at they gym. They waited outside for Suga and Daichi to arrive so that they could unlock the gym to start practice. The Ita's soon joined the four and not long after Tsukishima and Yamaguchi joined as well. The two greeted everyone in the gym before locating themselves to the side of the gym. The managers also arrived and got everything ready for the rest of practice. The chaotic duo arrived last minute to practice and were filled with boundless energy as they were already professing there love to Kiyoko.

In the corner of Noya's eye, he noticed Hinata practicing with Kageyama in the corner of his eye and almost as if a light bulb switched on above his head, he remembered the events from yesterday. His eyes widened as he shouted for Hinata to gain his attention. Hinata landed back on the ground from his spike and turned around to Nishinoya smiling "Noya-san!" He shouted back. "Shoyo!" Noya replied with even more energy. Hinata smiled even more brighter and asked what he wanted. The gears turned in Noya's head as he recalled what he wanted to ask. "OH RIGHT! WHAT IS YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH SALTYSHIMA?!" Hinata looked at Noya with a puzzled look, questioning why he was asked that. "Huh? Why do you need to know Noya-san?" Hinata questioned with curiosity.

"Me and Tanaka saw you kiss Saltyshima yesterday!" By this point Hinata was a blushing mess and was too flustered to answer Noya so Tsukishima stepped in and wrapped his arm around Hinata's waist. "We're dating." He stated. All the second and third years were shocked and had their eyes bulging out their heads. "WHAT?!" They exclaimed. Tsukishima rolled his eyes and repeated his statement again and asked "do i need to say it again?" They slowly shook their heads as they began to process the information they received.

Sugawara was the first to recover from the news and asked "When did you start dating?" This time Hinata answered saying "i think it's been about a month. Right Tsuki?" Tsukishima nodded his head and leaned down to Hinata's ear and said "you can call me Kei now, they all know now." Hinata's cheeks were painted with a light pink as he nodded. Tsukishima brought Hinata deeper into his embrace and placed his head on the crown of Hinata's head. The gym fell silent during their interaction but Narita was the first to break the silence asking who was the first to know of their relationship. "I think it was Kiyoko and Yachi?" Hinata replied unsure.

Yachi confirmed his suspicion when she shouted "WE WERE THERE FOR THE CONFESSION". A side comment was made by Kiyoko as she said "it was very cute". This made Tanaka shout "WAIT SO WHO ELSE KNEW BEFORE US?" Tsukishima answered this time calmly stating the 6 people "Yamaguchi, Kenma, Kuroo, King, Kiyoko and Yachi obviously." In the background Kageyama shouted "OI DON'T CALL ME THAT!" Noya's voice was more prominent, however, when he yelled "HOW DID KENMA AND KUROO KNOW BEFORE US?!" Hinata quickly joked bursting out "Kenma has best friend privileges and Kuroo is a nosy bitch".

Immediately realising what he said he quickly put his hand over his mouth. "YOU SWEAR?!" Most of the team cried out in disbelief. Hinata slowly nodded in fear burying himself in Tsukishima's hold. "WHEN?" Daichi questioned with bewilderment. "Uh since middle school." Hinata responded in a hushed tone not liking the attention that was currently put on him. "...so why have you never swore around us before?" Kageyama asked calmly noticing the distress the ginger was going through. This seemed to have made the others also become more calmer and wait patiently for his answer. Tsukishima tightened his grip and asked Hinata if he was comfortable in answering or if he should tell them instead. Hinata declined his offer telling him he would tell them instead. Hinata told them the story was long but would just tell them a shortened version of it.

After explaining ~ refer to chapter 5 for the story

The team was shocked hearing that their resident sunshine was picked on for his personality. They instantly told him that he would be accepted here no matter what. Hinata gave them a smile which expressed his gratitude to the team. "Do your family know? Of you being together i mean." Ennoshita piped in filling the comforting silence. "Hm, my family know but not Kei's" Hinata responded. "Are you planning to reveal it to Tsukishima's family?" Kinoshita asked. Hinata replied again saying "Maybe, i don't know we haven't discussed it yet."

After a few more questions about their relationship Yamaguchi piped in asking "don't get me wrong i want to hear more but shouldn't we start practice now? We only have 30 minutes left." Daichi looked up at the clock from reflex and then, without hesitation, stopped the q&a of the couple and got them to start practicing instead.
