(New cover!)

(Y/n) sighed deeply, resting her (s/c) cheek against her palm as her tired eyes scanned through the various papers in front of her. Notebooks were scattered open all around her and in the middle of it was a laptop, shining brightly as the empty dark room was only lit up by a desk lap. All of them filled with volleyball notes and tactics.

The gentle night breeze brushed past through the open window as a few gray clouds floated slowly in the dark blue night sky.

Inhaling though her nose she threw her head back onto the chair, looking up at the ceiling, raising her hand to look at the watch on her wrist.

It read 2:30 am.

It was late.

But she wasn't going to sleep soon, she still had plenty of work left to do, causing the dark circles under her eyes to get every darker. Feeling her throat become dry from the lack of moisture she pushed herself off the chair and walked to the door, creaking it open and walking out down the hall to the cafeteria to grab a bottle of water.

She walked past the teams's rooms, hearing their snores through the walls as she lightly chuckled when she walked past her team's room. The familiar sound of Samatoki's snore echoing in the empty halls.

Once in the cafeteria she walked into the kitchen, opening the fridge quietly as she looked inside to grab the cold plastic water bottle. The icy feeling nipping her palms as she grasped it tightly between her hands, ready to close the door.

"(L/n)-san?" She jolted slightly at the sudden mention of the name, turning around to see a familiar tuft of silver hair, looking at her with tired eyes.

"Oh Sugawara-san. Sorry did I wake you?" She whispered, closing the fridge door, watching the third year rubbing his eyes to get rid of the sleepiness.

"Oh don't worry about it, I just came for some water too." He mumbled walking towards her.

"Here take this." (Y/n) said, handing him the bottle and going to open the fridge once more.

"You don't have to I can get my-"

"No it's fine, besides I'm closer to the fridge." She said, blankly looking in to grab another bottle and closing the fridge door, opening the cap as she started to drink the cold liquid.

Sugawara opened his and proceeded to do the same, his eyes trialing down her face, looking at the visible bags that were under her eyes, and the dull (e/c) colored orbs.

She looked so tired.

"I guess I'll be heading back now, sleep well Sugawara-san." (Y/n) muttered ready to walk back when a hand was placed on her shoulder.

"Have you been awake this entire time?" he asked, looking at her with worry in his eyes.

(Y/n) blankly looked at him with a raised brow, "yes? Why?" She asked, as if it wasn't a normal thing to do to stay up this late.

"What? You should be sleeping right now." Sugawara said, lightly shaking her back and forth.

(Y/n) sighed, "I have a lot of work to do..... I promise I'll sleep just later."

He shook his head, "No you need to sleep this instant. Your team's practice starts at 5 right? It's 2:30 that's not enough!"

(Y/n) just rubbed her temples with her fingers, "Sugawara-san I understand your concern but please I have a lot of unfinished work and if I don't the-" she cut herself off, pursuing her lips together as she swallowed down her remaining words.

Sugawara's concern only heightened at her odd behavior. "(L/n)-san? Are you alright?" He looked at her as she only glared down at the floor.

"I'm.... fine..." she managed to whisper out.
