Reignition (KurooxOC)

Sleeping Mishaps

"Ayame, wake up," I heard a voice say to me.

"Eri," I mumbled, "I know it's you and not Kuroo."

"Uh... Ayame?"

I opened my eyes and squealed as I realized that Kuroo was lying down in the bed beside me. I instinctively raised the blanket over me and stared up at the ceiling.

"Tetsurō..." I said, "What are you doing in the girls room?"

Kuroo frowned as his fingers ran through my hair, "Hate to break it to you, but this is the boys' room."

I jumped to my feet and looked around. Sure enough, Kuroo was right and I was in the boys' room. The events of last night played through my mind.  

"Nice receive," I complimented the libero from Fukurōdani.

When I invited Yaku and Shibiyama to train in one of the gymnasiums, I didn't expect the news to spread to the other liberos. Goes to show that the cafeteria has eyes and ears everywhere. The liberos from the other teams showed up and my happy, no pressure practice turned into a mini training camp. 

"Rolling thunder!" Noya shouted as he did a rolling receive. 

According to Noya, his teamamtes except Hinata made fun of his shouting. Here though, the other liberos and I watched Karasuno's libero watched in awe at the gusto that Noya had. 

Shibiyama was the first to speak, "Sugoi!"

Noya had his hands on his hips as he puffed his chest out proudly, "I'm the Guardian Deity of Karasuno."

"Just when you think he's shown you everything," Yaku murmured, "How scary."

"You got that right," I agreed, "But that just motivates me to surpass my limits."

One of the liberos tried to spike the ball towards me and I smiled as I moved as gracefully as a cat to receive it. It flew perfectly into the air where a setter would be. I heard a chorus of 'oohs' and 'awes' as I had my hands on my hips. I turned to face Noya who was watching me with a wide eyed expression.

"I can't let you upstage me, now can I?" I asked him with a grin.

My blue eyes go to Shibiyama, "Oi, Shibiyama."

The boy's stance went straight as if I were a sergeant, "Yes?!"

"I want to see you do a libero toss to me."

"Ayame-" Yaku starts to say and I shook my head and took my position on the court.

"Have faith in him," I tell him, "Besides aren't you supposed to be the demon-senpai? You aren't going soft on me, are you?"

I brushed past him and nodded my head to Shibiyama and Yaku. Despite this being a training camp, we were all competitive and felt the need to show the other liberos just how much power Nekoma had. I pointed a finger to Haruki Komi of Fukurōdani Academy, "Would you mind passing the ball to us?"

Haruki nodded his head and passed the ball over the net. Yaku received it and it went towards the net where Shibiyama tried to do a libero toss. I watched him managed to jump before the line much to the shock of Yaku, but the toss itself wasn't the best.

"Gomen! It's short."

Refusing to let this crush the first year's already shaky confidence, I ran up to the net and sprinted to my right where the ball was reaching its height. I jumped and hit the ball as hard as I could. It bounced off of Haruki's fingers and landed on the ground with the Shinzen libero unable to dig it up from the ground. Yaku, Shibiyama and I cheered. I wrapped an arm around the first year, "Nice job, Shibiyama. You didn't go over the line, but you just need a little more power."
