Kuroo got the coaches to let us into the gym on a Sunday for some extra practice. Nationals were around the corner for us and he wanted some extra practice, specifically for our new member, Teshiro.
He knocked on my door and I walked out. Kuroo gave me a hug and a kiss on the forehead like always before we walked to the train station. I didn't play games on the way there anymore, since we held hands as we walked. Once we boarded the train, I played a game on my phone since we were sitting. I rested my head on Kuroo's shoulder and he watched me play.
After we got off, Shoyo texted me, which was a little out of the ordinary. He normally wouldn't text me so early on a weekend, because he knew I sleep in.
(Shoyo 9:56)
"Hey are you awake?"
(Kenma 9:56)
"Yeah we have extra practice today"
I texted back only using my left thumb, since my other hand was busy holding Kuroo's.
"Are you texting someone?" Kuroo asked as we turned the corner.
"Yeah, Shoyo," I replied.
(Shoyo 9:56)
"Cool. Is it fun?"
(Kenma 9:57)
"Kuroo and I are still walking to school. We haven't started yet"
(Shoyo 9:57)
"I wish I had something to do today. I'm just laying here"
Kuroo and I walked into school and we headed for the gym. We were already dressed to start, we just needed to warm up. I sat down on the bench and kept texting Shoyo. The way that he typed felt off. Like he was sad or something.
(Kenma 9:58)
"Is something wrong? You're not usually like this"
(Shoyo 9:58)
"Was it that obvious?"
I paused for a moment. That sentence made me really worried. Other members had arrived and talked to each other, but I didn't look up from my phone.
(Kenma 9:59)
"Yeah... what's wrong?"
(Shoyo 9:59)
"We lost a member yesterday"
(Kenma 9:59)
"Someone quit?"
(Shoyo 10:00)
"No, he committed suicide"
My heart stopped and I gasped quietly. I brought my hand to my face and reread the text as my brain processed what I was just sent.
"Kenma, we're getting started," Kuroo said.
I looked up. Everyone from the team had arrived and they all looked at me. Some of them held confused expressions, probably because of the face I made.
"...Someone from Karasuno died."
"Eh?" everyone replied.
"Shoyo just texted me. Someone committed suicide."
(Kenma 10:01)
"Who?"
"...Suicide?" Kuroo said weakly.
