Tsukishima Kei was having a rather difficult day.

Slotting back into his usual routine in the middle of the week had been a little strange, but not too bad.  The schoolwork he and Nakano had done during their trip made things a little easier, as far as that went.  Honestly, making up days for being sick was far more annoying - trying to catch up what you'd missed while keeping up with the new material.  Nakano had been, of course, very thorough in her planning.

Daichi had insisted on doubling down on training during the latter half of the week, which was exhausting, but not unexpected, given the fact that he'd basically been gifted four days off from practice for his birthday by his captain.  He knew things would settle down again shortly as well, as the qualifiers for Nationals were still about a month away.

No, what had made this day difficult for Tsukishima was a purely personal issue.

He'd been so exhausted Tuesday night that when they had gotten to Nakano's house, he'd simply given her a poorly-executed kiss and stayed in the car, sleepily watching her slip into her house from the backseat.  

And he'd not really had the opportunity to properly kiss her since then.  Quick, stolen kisses during lunch, or breaks in practice, or as they parted from one another after walking home.  But they'd not really been able to be alone together for any length of time since Tuesday morning.

And just in case he wasn't sure, Tsukishima's body had chosen today, Friday, to be a good day to remind him that yes, he was still a horny teenage boy.

He'd overslept, dreaming of Nakano, awakening overstimulated and wanting and running too late to do anything about it.  He grit his teeth and jumped into a fast, cold shower, hoping that the day would get better.

It didn't.  Well, at least, it didn't get any easier.

Nakano had dashed into their classroom at the last moment, running late from physical therapy.  She'd given him a quick smile as a hello, and thrown herself into her seat, her skirt rumpling oddly as she sat down.

Giving him a view of just a hint of her bright blue lace panties.

He'd flushed immediately, trying to figure out if any of their other classmates would be able to see what he could.  He didn't think so, based on the angles.  Yamaguchi, directly behind her, would see only that her skirt had bunched oddly on one side.  He didn't think the guy in front of him, directly to Nakano's left, would be able to see them either, unless he made a conscious effort to do so, which would require him to twist around in his seat and lean back, which was sure to alert their teacher.

Basically, the universe had granted him this titillating view all to himself.  He indulged in it at first, smirking to himself and enjoying it.  His brain was quickly undressing the girl, imagining what the view would be like if the skirt were completely gone.  

Before he knew it, he was once again dealing with the same problem he'd woken up to, only now, he couldn't just jump in a cold shower.

Every time he managed to refocus himself, get himself to calm down, he'd catch a glimpse of the girl's lacy undergarment again as she shifted in her seat, and the cycle would begin anew.

By the time lunch came around, he was giving serious consideration to excusing himself to the bathroom and dealing with the situation.  Fortunately, the very idea of doing something like that in a school restroom was enough of a turn off to help remedy the issue.  The weather was poor, and so Tsukishima, Yamaguchi and Nakano stayed in the classroom for lunch.  With so many other people around, Kei was unwilling to get too handsy with his girlfriend, but at least she stood up, fixing the issue with her skirt.  Although he wasn't too thrilled with having to sit apart for lunch, at least maybe now he could get through the rest of the day without any further distractions.
