Sound of silence (SugaxReader)

17- helping

~Your POV~

It's been a few weeks since mom and Keiji visited. Since then, Suga and I have gotten even closer, and I've even bonded with the team some more. I've been swinging by their practices on occasion just to help out. In fact, that's where I'm headed now.

"Ok so we have a month before the camp?" "Yep and you have to pass your exams in order to go" "I NEVER EVEN SCORE IN THE DOUBLE DIGITS" "Relax, we'll figure it out." 

I walked into the gym to see some of the boys panicking while the rest were mostly calm. "What's going on?" I asked Suga as he walked towards me. "We have a training camp in Tokyo in a month. But you have to pass your exams to go." "That sucks"

"Y/n are you coming with us?" Asahi asked me. "No, only the managers, the team, and the coach go," I replied causing a few of the boys to whine. "YOU COULD BE ANOTHER MANAGER!" Nishinoya yelled from halfway across the gym.

"I dunno," I said as I started to play with the ends of my hair. "Come on! You're smart, you know volleyball, you hang out with us all the time anyway..." I looked up at Suga to see what he thought. 

"You could, but only if you want to" I thought it over for a minute. The reason I never managed the Fukurōdani team was that I was only known as Keiji Akaashi's quiet sister. The team tolerated me but I wasn't really friends with anyone on it. Besides Bokuto.

"Ok" Tanaka ran over to me and picked me up, swinging me around in the air. "NOW WE HAVE 2 MANAGERS!!" "Tanaka put her down before you suffocate her" He set me down and Coach Ukai walked over to me. "I'll order you a tracksuit tomorrow" I nodded.

'I hope I just did the right thing.' 

"Now we just have to get you four to study enough to pass your exams so you can go" Kageyama, Hinata, Noya, and Tanaka went wide-eyed. "I would say we could study at my place but I don't wanna kill my mom" Suga laughed.

"You could always come to mine" It was barely audible but all the boys turned to me. Noya, Tanaka, and Hinata jumped up and started praising me. Kageyama gave a small "Thanks" as he gritted his teeth. 

"We'll start tomorrow after practice. Don't be late!" Daichi said as they got started with practice.

"I hope none of you are allergic to cats," I said as I opened my front door. All the boys decided to come over, including Tsukishima, Ennoshita, Kinoshita, and Narita. "Please don't break anything," Daichi said as the boys looked around. 

"Where are we studying?" Suga asked as he nudged me lightly. "Library. You know your way around, you take them upstairs and I'll grab some snacks." He nodded and told all the boys to follow him while I went to the kitchen.

My arms were full of snacks as I walked towards the library. I pushed the door open with my foot and set all the snacks and drinks down on the table. Daichi was sitting by the window with Hinata and Kageyama. 

Suga had Oliver in his lap and was sitting next to Noya and Asahi on the couch. Tanaka was with Ennoshita, Kinoshita, and Narita. Yamaguchi and Tsukishima were sitting in the corner by themselves. 

I walked back to my room and grabbed my books along with Samson. When I got back to the library I decided to sit with Yams and Tsukki. "Are you good with science Y/n?" I nodded.

Yams turned his paper towards me and pointed to question 4. "I don't really remember this" I looked it over and "Ok so the respiration equation. Do you know the photosynthesis equation?" He nodded. "Isn't it 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O → C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O?" "Yes, so cell respiration is just the direct opposite of that" 

He scribbled on his paper and then showed me his answer. "C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 → 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O." "You got it" He gave me a thankful smile and kept working. I looked over at Tsukki, who was staring at his paper blankly. The poor kid looked so lost.

"Tsukishima do you need any help?" "No" He bit back. "Ok, sorry" He and Yams got in a quiet argument. "Number 18." I looked up from my AP Japanese literature book. "Hmm?" "It doesn't make sense." I got up from where I was sitting and walked over to where he was. 

Sitting down next to him I looked at his paper. 'What was the order of the four main classes during the Tokugawa era from highest to lowest?' "Do you know any of them?" "Peasants and merchants" He tapped his pencil on his paper in frustration. 

"And artisans and warriors. Now you just have to organize them by order." He wrote down Warriors, merchants, peasants, artisans. "May I?" I asked as I reached for his pencil. He handed it to me and I erased everything but the warriors. 

He sighed angrily. "It's okay, you just mixed them up. Warriors is right, but rethink the rest" I said as I handed him back his pencil. He continued to stare at the paper blankly. "Would it help if I gave you a hint?" 

He didn't say anything but looked a little distressed. "So it goes warriors, peasants-" He scribbled the rest down on his paper. "There ya go" "Thanks" I nodded as I got back to my work. Every once in a while the two boys would ask me questions and I would help them. 

"I DON'T UNDERSTAND!" Hinata shouted as he left the room. Everyone looked at the door but didn't say anything. I jumped up from where I was sitting and ran after him. "Hinata?" I searched the house for him but he was nowhere to be found. I was walking back to the library when I heard a sigh come from my room.

"Hinata?" I gently pushed the door open and he was sitting on my bed and holding my owl plushie. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to invade your space." He was about to get up when I sat down next to him. 

"It's okay." We sat quietly for a moment. "What were you working on?" "English" "What didn't you understand?" He sighed and flopped backward. "Everything," I thought about how I could help. 

"Do you wanna come over tomorrow after practice? I can help you if you want. And it'll just be the two of us so there's no pressure if you don't understand," He looked at me with stars in his eyes. 

"Really?" I nodded, "I want you to go to Tokyo with us"
