It's my second year of high school, but my first year at this specific school. 烏野 からすの 高校 こうこう(Karasuno High), a high school in the Miyagi Prefecture. I used to go to 青城 せいじょう(Aoba Johsai High, known as Seijoh), a private high school in the Miyagi Prefecture. Their volleyball team was amazing, but I hated the girls that were obsessed with some good setter named Oikawa Tōru. They just made me so mad, "pick me, choose me, love me" was the type of vibe they gave off.

I don't even know why my mom put me in this school, probably because my twin brother, Tanaka Ryūnosuke, goes here. I feel like she got tired of us being separated and having to pay for Seijoh, so much so, that she moved me in the middle of the school year. I don't hate having Ryū as a twin, it's just that I wanted to go to a better school than Karasuno. We just had different ideas of high school. I guess my mom heard me talking to him about the fact that I can't make friends (which sounds outlandish, even to me, because not only do I look like Ryū, but we have the same outgoing personality).

I decided to go to where the boys' volleyball was, I knew my brother would be there, and I didn't really have anybody else to hang out with. I was willing to be the manager of the team, even though I was cut out for the libero position on the girls' team.

"Ryū? It's Aiya." I walked into the gym and set down my bag near one of the benches. From a distance, I saw my brother talking to a shorter guy with brown hair and blonde streaks. I started to walk over there to get a closer look. Me and the boy met each other with our eyes, his beautiful brown eyes. I waved hesitantly; he gave me a tiny, but excited wave back. I stood by my brother, who was completely lost in his conversation.

"Ryū," I whispered in his ear, "it's Aiya."

He seemed to stop and pause and then turned around. He looked really shocked to see me.

"Aiya?! Hi!" He gave me a tight hug, as usual. I wrapped my arms around him softly. "Did Mom switch you over to this school?"

"Apparently so. I thought you could tell with the new school uniform."

I felt him turn his head to look at something, out of instinct, I looked too. He was looking at who he was talking to. It was the same boy I met eyes with.

"OH THAT'S RIGHT, YOU GUYS DIDN'T GO THROUGH INTRODUCTIONS!" I sort of winced at the pain going through my ears.

"Easy on the ears, うるさい (urusai, meaning loud in Japanese)."

"Sorry, sis." He let go of me and turned me to face the boy, who I found was the same height as me. "Go ahead and introduce yourself." He gestured to the boy.

"Nishinoya Yū, class 2-B." He smiled and held his hand out. Even though he was shifting around on his feet, he seemed composed.

"Aiya Tanaka, class 2-B. Nice to meet you too." I grabbed his hand and shook it. I could feel my brother's atmosphere tense up. "You'll have to excuse my brother. He's, very uh," I brought my voice down to a whisper, "overprotective."

He seemed to chuckle. "It's okay I promise, I've been his friend for a while, I know how he is." As much as I tried to smile at him, I couldn't ignore my brother's presence. I talked to him without even facing him.

"Ryū, loosen up a bit. It's not like he's my boyfriend or something, I just met him." I turned around. "Okay okay, calm yourself down a bit would you? You put me in this position you know." I nudged him in the shoulder a bit to snap him out of it.

"Ah, right, sorry."

"Don't be thinking about it either, you'll get mad and take it out on him."

"Mhm."

I looked at the time. Crap. It was about time for class. "I'm gonna see you guys later, I'm not planning on being late to my first day." I grabbed my bag and headed for the doorway. "BYE RYU, SEE YOU IN A FEW NISHINOYA."
