7. Blood, Sweat, and Tears

3rd POV (narrator)

When you reached the gym, you went into a closet to change into your shorts. After you came out you saw Tanaka hitting the ball up, and serving it.

Once he hit the ball past the net, you ran up to the ball and hit it in the air. Then, when it got close to the net, you jumped up and spiked it.

Tanaka just stood there, mouth wide open, as he spoke,"Y/n-chan!!?", "What?!", you said startled, "How did you just- i- EXPLAIN!", "Well, first you run up to hit the ball, then you ju-", "No! I WANT A REMATCH!!". Tanaka yelled pointing at you.

"Alright, you better be ready Tanaka-kun", you said with an evil smirk.

You through the ball into the air, stepping back a bit, before running forward, and slamming your hand onto the ball. Tanaka eyed the ball, watching its every move, before he hit the ball forward over the net.

You ran up to the ball before it almost hit the ground, before charging back towards it, about to spike it again.

Tanaka jumped hight into the air, blocking your hit, as the ball hit the ground, gaining Tanaka a point.

"Yeah!", Tanaka screamed throwing his fists in the air. You just gave him a light smirk, and went to get the ball.

You put one point on Tanaka's team, while you were still at zero.

You both got into place as Tanaka served the ball, but you just stood there knowing it was going out of bounce.

You walked over to the score board, now having the points 1 to 1.

You took a deep breath, before serving the ball, this time making it a top spin serve.

When you thought you had him, just within the blink of an eye, he was on the other side of the court, while the ball spun in the air.

Bringing it back to your side of the net , you jumped up, to hit the ball, but instead tricking your friend once again. You lightly hitting the ball over his hands, gaining you another point, as the ball hit the ground.

As you both stood there panting, another smile crossed your face.

"Shoot", "I forgot to bring water!", you said in-between breaths, sitting yourself on the ground.

"I could go a few more rounds..", Tanaka spoke, sitting down as well.
"Get ready to lose", you said walking to get the volleyball.

After what felt like forever, you took another look at the scoreboard that read, 11 to 8, you gave a long sigh, before you spoke. "Ok.. you win, I- I give up", you said with sweat dripping down face.

"Look who's the loser know", Tanaka said walking towards you, "Yeah, maybe I should just stick to basketball", you said with a giggle, as you went to get your stuff.

You both walked out of the gym, still breathing heavily, you held onto Tanaka's shoulder.

"Here", he said signalling for you to get on his back, "No, I'm too heavy, and you're already too worn out", you said rejecting the offer, "Oh c'mon, at least I can actually walk, unlike you", he said.

"You look like you could practically drop dead at any moment", he said still waiting for you to get on his back, "Ok, but when you get tiered remember this is what you choose", you said hoping on his back, wrapping your hands around his neck for support.
