Keiji's POV

"Bokuto-san!" I exclaimed as I huffed, pushing the ball away from my fingertips. The ball motioned towards Bokuto-san who leaped, bending his back and knees, before spiking the ball to the other side.

That was an awesome cross shot.. I thought as I landed, my feet placed firm on the ground "nice kill.." I praised silently, hearing Konoha and Komi wail at the other side of the court.

"Well, as the bet goes, those who lost will be staying behind and clean the gym" Shirofuku-san piped in, carrying 6 water bottles. "Thank you" I said, receiving a bottle from the lady.

"Akaashi-san, your toss was amazing!" I whipped my head to the side and saw Anahori, gripping his bottle and leaned closely to me. As I stared longer, I noticed his eyes were shining. I ruffled his hair "you'll get there soon. With more practice and determination, you'll be better than me" I told before walking away.

I sat on the bench, gulping the water down. The sweat was still present and I felt sticky. "Gaashi!" His familiar sound echoed. Before I could even look towards him, he patted me rather strong at my back.

"As usual, your tosses are the best!" He praised with a close eyed grin. The praise seeped through my heart, making it thump loudly, heat quickly rushing to my cheeks. I looked away "thank you.."

"Excuse me" a voice caught all our attention. We faced towards the entrance and saw two boys bowing in respect. They straightened and I immediately stood and bowed as well before approaching my classmates.

"Yamada-san, Omaga-san, what are you doing here?" I asked. Yamada-san chuckled, his brown locks slightly bouncing as he did. "Did you forgot that Class rep, the assistant, and class president are required to gather at the student councils' meeting room?" Omaga spoke with a teasing tone.

In that moment, I widened my eyes as the memories 2 weeks ago came crashing in my head.

"We have a meeting just me you and Omaga-kun at the student councils' room.." Yamada-san informed me.

"Oh my gosh, I forgot." I bowed "are we late?" I asked, stepping out of the gym with my classmates. But before we could go away, I heard Bokuto-san calling out for me.

"Akgashi! You're still sweaty and dirty! Are you not gonna take a bath?" He asked. I slowed my pace, turning back to him "it's fine, I'll just take a shower after the meeting." I assured.

Sure, maybe I do smell bad and sour because of the sweat... Eww. But I'm not risking another violation. Especially since I was voted as assistant, I need to show them I am responsible. But what is a leader who has no hygiene? Maybe I should take a shower first.

"Akaashi you're spacing out." Omaga-san nudged me on the shoulder. We were still standing against my upperclassman, waiting if I should really confirm my decision. I caught Bokuto-san smiling before he took the towel around his neck.

"I barely used it so I guess it's not that dirty?" He informed unsurely, earning a laugh from both my classmates behind me. "Either way, take it. It will at least prevent you from sweating more" Bokuto-san added.

I was touched. I hesitantly took the towel before giving him a slight bow. "Thank you Bokuto-senpai but we best not stay here for long" Omaga-san butted in, nudging my shoulders causing me to roll me eyes.

"Oh, you better go then" Bokuto-san said but before he left, he waved at me. Of course I waved back. Omaga-san shook his brows at the motion and I had to drag him away in order for him not to embarrass me. I sighed "I shouldn't have told you about my crush on him" I grumbled.

A few minutes of walking, we arrived at the quiet hallways of building 1. We shuffled on our places, contemplating to open the door before us. We knew we were late. "Damn, we're 2nd years. We should be more punctual and responsible next time" Omaga-san told, clenching his fist.

Yamada-san could only roll his eyes by how dramatic Omaga-san was acting. Without any warning, he opened the door widely. Instantly, I and Omaga-san straighten our posture. "Sorry we arrived late" Yamada-san spoke up and bowed, we followed his actions.

"It's fine. Please come in, we were just about to discuss the second years' theme for this school year's festival." The Student Council President, Sara-san, spoke as she handed Yamada-san a thick pad of paper.

Yamada immediately scanned the papers. I and Omaga-san were curious and we instantly moved closer towards the brunette, reading the paper as well. Our eyes widened at the theme Second Years are gonna prepare and perform.

Third Person's POV

The sun was rising. The atmosphere was quiet and cold but students have grown accustomed to the place. The birds lightly chirped on the branches.

A loud but faint "Huwahhhh" echoed across the field. "Theatre?!" The whole Class 2-a chorused, they seemed to like their school festival's theme. Loud whispers and chatters aroused in the air. "Quiet!" Yamada exclaimed.

The brunette sighed after the class quiet down. Akaashi merely shuffled on his place, holding his light blue clipboard and waiting for Yamada's instructions. "Yes,We Second Years are to perform different Musical Theatres, English to be exact." He said, emphasizing the word 'musical' and 'english'.

"It is a contest so we must show them a nice presentation. Now, are there any recommendations-"

Yamada barely finished his sentence when the whole class raised their hands, screaming their names, wanting to be picked for the others to hear their suggestions. The others even already said it out loud.

Yamada and Akaashi had to look away from the direct vocal attacks. The raven head shielded himself with his clipboard "wow, I didn't think they'd have interest in this type of theme.." Yamada grumbled.

"Quiet!" He once more exclaimed. The whole class immediately quiet down and sat on their seats like loyal dogs. Both Class rep and assistant sweat dropped at the sudden action. Yamada sighed deeply "raise your hand, and please don't yell your suggestions freely..." he pleaded.

Most class raised their hands quietly but eagerly. Yamada picked students whilst Akaashi wrote the suggestions on the board.

Ex Wives; Six the musical
Candy store; Heathers: the musical
All you wanna do; Six the musical
Gay or European; Legally Blonde the musical
Helpless; Hamilton the musical
Satisfied; Hamilton the musical

So far, everyone's suggestions were alike, hence why the suggestions were only so little. Akaashi lightly frowned. Their suggestions were so likely so millennial-ish. What happened to other English musical theatres? like The Phantom of the Opera and so much more?

Yamada blinked when everyone was suddenly so quiet "Is that all?" He asked aloud and blinked thrice. "Okay, since that was it.." He turned to look at the ravenette "I will cross out those suggestions that are vulgar and contains inappropriate scenes and language." Akaashi announced.

Akaashi dragged the white chalk across the words with ease. He had no problem or whatsoever since, he may or may not have listened and memorized a couple of these suggestions.

Yamada studied the board, holding his chin "I guess the closest we can perform is Hamilton?" He asked unsurely. Half of the class agreed and half didn't. Though, Akaashi secretly agreed.

"Why can't we do Ex Wives?" Asked one of their classmates "Right, that song is a bop!" Added another. This time, Akaashi was the one to step in "That is right, and due to that, some of our fellow Second years may have taken the song already."

"Hamilton the musical is popular as well, it composed of romance and drama as far as I know. Not to mention, The show draws heavily from hip hop, as well as R&B, pop, soul, and traditional-style show tunes. So I guess, that's good.." Akaashi finished. He even didn't notice that he constantly kept fiddling with his fingers as he explained. Everyone was staring at him, it made him feel overwhelmed.

Luckily, his explanation convinced everyone. "Okay since we have settled on Hamilton, we have two options. What song are we going to perform?" Yamada asked, once again the whole class ensued chaos.

Poor Yamada, he could feel his head already wanting to burst. He clenched his fists, hoping that he would calm down. Why was I chosen as Class rep again? He asked himself. "Omaga!" He suddenly exclaimed.

The man with ash grey hair and brilliant emerald colored eyes, flinched at the mention of his family name. Akaashi chuckled at his friend's action. Usually Omaga is a chill person although someone will be calling him out angrily. Today says otherwise.

"Yes?" Omaga stood up. "What do you want to choose? You've been awfully quiet despite being class pres. The only way you can contribute help is through choosing which one." Yamada stated.

And that, Omaga slowly faced him classmates. Now he felt small against their intent gazes on him. He gulped. But I don't even know what to choose! He eternally exclaimed to himself.
