Yahaba P.O.V.

"Today a new person is joining our Volleyball team. They just moved here and I want you all to welcome them with open arms." Oikawa explained then stepped to the side to display the new member.

"Oi Shittykawa did you lose him on the way here." Iwazumi turned to Oikawa

"I could have sworn he was right there... HABA-chan" I directed my attention to the overly excited captain. "Could you go look for a kid named Kyoutani, he has short blond hair with a few black lines, I think he was wearing eyeliner?"

"Umm ... OK I'll see what I can do"

"Thank you Haba-chan" With that, I left the already wide-open gym doors. How was I supposed to find Kyoutani anyways? With the brief description that was given it would be a miracle. I scanned the outside of the gym building. Unknowingly I bumped into someone knocking him off his feet.

"Oh my, I'm so sorry I did not mean to bump into you..." I stood up and looked at the stranger in front of me. He was the spitting image of Oikawa's description

"Are you by any chance Kyoutani"

"What's it to you"

"I was sent by Oikawa to find you, I'm on the volleyball team"

"Tch" He looked at me expectantly

"Follow me to the gym" They walk in awkward silence the rest of the way.

When we arrive at the gym the doors are now closed with a CLUD the doors slid across the frame bumping into the wall harshly.

"CREAM PUFF-CHAN you found him" Oikwawa rushed over to me and Kyoutani who were standing in the doorway.

"Next time try not to lose a person on your way to the gym" I sniped back rolling my eyes.

"Cream puff really" Kyoutani snickered mocking my nickname given to me by Oikawa.

"It is a dumb nickname I had no say in, you will probably get one too" I sneered

"I KNOW, I KNOW Maddog-chan" Okinawa piped up.

"No" Kyoutani growled at the bubbly captain

"Aww, you don't like it... Maddog" I remarked, I could not give up the opportunity to make of the oh so tough seeming person in front of me... I knew I was being a bitch.

"Tch, cream puff"

Oikawa cleared his throat. "Well welcome to the Aoba Josai Volleyball club we are happy to have you" he took a pause "We are about to do stretches you are going to work with Yahaba. Tomorrow if you get along it will be the same pair if not you will work with Watari our libero"

"Mhm"

"Let's go Maddog" Kyoutani and I walked to the side of the gym to start warm-ups. OK, this is good I get to learn more about him. Maybe we could even be friends if he wants.

"OK everyone has a partner"

Everyone said "Yes Captan" and were then directed to do warm ups, receives, serves, and spikes, and after that, we will be doing three on three's. Oikawa directed us from the center of the gym with Iwazumi by his side.

"Let me guess they are both hopelessly and obliviously in love with each other." I blinked once before registering what Kyoutani had said

"Spot on" Kyoutani let out an amusing smirk.

"Let's do the dumb stretches" I guided Kyoutani through our usual stretches sometimes he would turn the wrong way so I would correct him. This is how I learned he is EXTREMELY muscular, both in his core and his arms and shoulders. He could probably break my arm before I could even scream about it.

"Do we do any stretches for our backs?" quite an odd question in my opinion.

"No not really we do our shoulders but not specifically our backs." Kyoutani's face shifted into a mischievous grin that sent shivers down my spine.

"Well would you care to do a challenge with me" My head went blank he was asking about stretches for our backs and now he is challenging me what is up with this gut.

"I mean... why not" his grin turned more into a sneaky one.

'OK so you have to bend backward as far as possible and try to go into a back bend. Whoever goes farther buys the other an item of choice from the vending machines." I mean a free milk bread does not sound bad.

"Sounds like a deal" he kept up his smirk

"Care to go first" I walked to the side of the gym and grabbed a blue mat. Slowly I arched my back sticking my hands above my head reaching for the ground. I kept going back until one of my legs slipped. Of course, I have to fall, break open my skull, quit volleyball, and on top of all that embarrass myself in front of Kyoutani. I shut my eyes tight bracing for the oncoming impact of the blue mat. What is the worst possible situation, I snap my neck back and can't breathe resulting in death, which sounds about right. (< this was me the first time I tried to do a handstand I'm an overthinking bitch and it is not OK) In the split second before impact, a sudden pressure was felt on my back that was still bent over. The pressure felt like a hand that then lifted me and set me right up.

"Oh my god thank you so much ... Kyoutani" I was surprised to see him as the person that caught me. He had not walked over with me to the mats he had been watching from afar. Did he run over here in the time that I was falling that would be crazy fast right?

"Jeez if you could not do it you could have just said so" I was at a loss for words not because of my near-death experience that could have ended my volleyball career but because in this very moment, Kyoutani looked like he was ... My Knight In Shining Armor.
