The rest of the party was filled with awkward tension after Hinata had left in annoyance. Kageyama finally decided to go back inside 5 minutes later. The aura he gave off left many clueless; was it anger, frustration, murderous even? Almost no one knew. Almost no one.

They had decide to pack it up early and left everyone to enjoy the rest of their night. Daichi and Sugawara were the last to leave, both having to walk the same path home together anyway before spliting off.

"So... Mind explaining what happened with those two?"

Suga chuckled awkwardly, "well, y'see, I didn't exactly hear everything. From what I heard, I'm guessing Kageyama was trying to comfort Hinata in some way, but, well- y'know how Kageyama can be at times.."

"Blunt and angry?"

"You could say that again."

Suga's eyes fell downcast before continuing, "I just hope they fix what little friendship they have left..."

A week has past since that incident. Was the problem fixed? Answering that would be like saying Oikawa's favourite food isn't milk bread.

The little red head refused to speak to Kageyama unless he had too. Need help in class? Yep. Wanted to know what subject was after their class? Yep. Anything related to school? Absolutely. Anything related about Hinata himself or talk about volleyball outside the court? Yeah, good luck with that one.

Sooner or later the fuse in Kageyama's little head is bound to explode. Oh, how well the other teammates were loving the "practices". Nothing but misses, hits to the head, and stress, stress, stress.

"Oh my, his majesty not feeling well?"

"Ah shut up, dino-bitch!" Kageyama snarled. Not his fault he's been up late thanks to his anxiety. God, why can't Hinata just trust him already!? Weren't they not good friends already? Well, maybe not now since he keeps ignoring him.

'Thats it, Hinata. I'm sorry in advance, but I have to know what's going on...'

Practice continued and turned out somewhat decent since Suga had switched to be setter. Meanwhile, Daichi had taken this time to talk with the young raven head.

"Wanna say what's on your mind?"

"..."

"Listen, I'm not sure what happened between you and Hinata, and I'm sure you both understand how it's affecting the team. I'm here to help if you need it, alright?"

The young teen glanced at his captain, giving a small, appreciative nod as thanks.
"I'm just worried about Hinata. He's been ignoring recently since our fight. I'm going to confront him about it later and save what we have left."

"Well I'm glad to hear that! I'm sure you'll both be alright, just make sure it doesn't end up like last time with Yachi"

He nodded again. Did he remember to apologize to her? Who knows. He should probably say it again when he gets a chance.

After another half hour of practice, it was nearing 5:30pm, in which everyone started to pack up. Man, was this week difficult. It almost feels as if next year isn't going to be fun or the same without the third years to hold the team together.

The first years were last leave the club room, minus Asahi since he had to lock up. Kageyama was almost too lost in thought to even realise the tiny teen was leaving.

"Hey, Hinat-"

"Yeah! So Yamaguchi, you don't mind helping me with the math homework later?"

"Uh, sure I guess. Just text me what parts you're struggling with"

And with that, the two, plus Tsukishima, walked out of the club together, leaving the fuse ready to pop. Of course he wants to save their friendship, but this is a little more extreme the last time. Unless... There was something more about him other than eating less...

As Hinata walked home listening to his music from his earphones, he admired his surroundings. He hasn't gone on a nice walk in a while, he probably should during the weekend. It's nice to get his head clear and away from certain individuals. Still, all in all, he's glad to protect his sister from that monster. Then again, why was he the target? Had he done something that pissed the witch off and made her despise him? It's thoughts like these that get his anxiety rising.

'Ah, I should've burnt more energy during today.'

Not too far behind him, in a poorly thrown on disguise, was a tall, hooded teen, seemingly just walking and enjoying the golden sunset view.
Luckily for him, the tiny ginger never noticed.

However, once they reached said tiny gingers house, the tall teen, Kageyama, froze. What's going on? The once calm aura had immediately been drained into one of despair. What was happening? Oh god, was Hinata feeling the same energy too or was Kageyama just turning insane from the lack of sleep? His thoughts were soon cut short as Hinata went inside. Oh god, what now? Should he stay? Go? No, no. We're here for a reason, Kageyama. Remember that. We need to know what's going on.
... And to apologize about the fight.

After what felt like forever, he crept forward towards the window. Thankfully it was dark enough outside, otherwise he'd have one hell of explaining to do before cops arrive. Sadly, he wished that were the case.

What he saw made his breath hitch and his now shaking body turn cold to the touch. Broken glass pieces scattered around a messy room, his best friend on the ground bleeding from the shoulder covering his face with his arms, and a women standing over him with a murderous glare.
