After the cigarette issue, Suna did drop his "after practice" smoking as Atsumu still kept an eye on him, just in case. The twins also raided his apartment for his cigarette stocks and made sure they got rid of all of it. If Suna ever planned on restocking, that'll be another mission for the twins.
Osamu helped in the efforts but he remained quiet for the most of it. It's undeniable that the two was still kept on a knife edge after the incident. It's easier to say that the tension between them got worse before (hopefully) it gets better.
Their teammates and coach have started to grow worried as well. At first they thought it was just normal childish banters. Well, not until they witness Osamu's hands grabbing Suna's collar or when Suna, almost obsessively started getting blackmail materials against Osamu.
Poor Atsumu was always caught at the dead center of it all. Lucky for him two of their upperclassmen, Aran and Kita, would always intervene and break them up, either verbally calm or by force.
"The two of ya should really stop bickering when we are at practice. I swear yer gonna give Aran-kun and Kita-san an aneurysm if this goes on." Atsumu said.
They just finished their last practice before their club's weeklong summer break. Atsumu insisted they go hang out to "build teamwork" which ended with the three of them sitting side by side on the couch, Atsumu being in the middle again, playing random video games at Suna's apartment.
"Tell that to your brother." Suna nodded towards Osamu.
"Yer the one who always start it though." Osamu retorted.
"See?!" Atsumu sighed.
"Ya guys suck at this. I beat both of ya already."
"Huh?!" Atsumu whipped his eyes back at his phone's screen showing Osamu's character celebrating his victory.
Suna sighed and placed his phone on the center table, "I don't want to play anymore. I'm tired already."
"Samu?" Atsumu turned back to his brother.
"I hate to agree with him but same." he did the same with his phone then glanced at Suna who is now leaned back with his eyes closed, laying his head on top of the couch's backrest.
"Let's play another round, come on!"
Osamu turned to look at his whining brother, closed his eyes and leaned back as well, raising both of his arms to support his head as he laid it on top of the backrest too.
Atsumu clicked his tongue in disappointment, he also put his phone down and started shaking the legs of the two that is closest to him.
"Why is it when it comes to bullying me, ya guys suddenly agree with each other? Come on! Get up! Let's plaaaaay~"
Atsumu continued to whine and shake their legs. Suna was the one to break first and snorted as he tried to supress his laughter. Osamu hearing this can't contain it anymore and started laughing.
Atsumu then crossed his arms and started pouting. He gave up on shaking the two and leaned back himself. It was clear now that they were just messing around with him.
"Yer such a cry baby." Osamu teased.
"and you always take the bait." Suna added
"Yeah yeah.. ya bullies! But ya know... sometimes I like this better. I hope ya two can get along well like this more often."
Suna opened his eyes and turned his head towards Atsumu, who's just staring at the ceiling. He then glanced at Osamu at the other side of Atsumu's head and as if on perfect timing, their eyes met.
