Part 16

Hinata's POV

Why did I agree to this..?

Yachi-Chan drags me around the shopping centre. This was initially meant to be a study session, but it appears Yachi-Chan has other plans.

"Sorry, Hinata-Kun... But I don't think we need to study. So let's go to the mall! My treat, okay?"

I watch as Yachi-Chan smiles gleefully. Being on the volleyball team is making my soft side come out. Mainly to the managers...

I'm surprised, honestly. It hasn't even been that long, but I guess they were able to make me come out of my comfort shell.

"I'll have a strawberry green tea with apple popping pearls!" I watch as Yachi-Chan orders her drink. "Ah! Hinata-Kun, do you want anything?"

I look at Yachi-Chan's happy face. "I don't mind what I get. You can get me anything, Yachi-Chan", she nods cheerfully. "And one taro milk tea with pearls for my friend!"

...

Friend..? I stare at the back of Yachi-Chan's head. We're friends..? I-I don't remember telling her we're friends... What if history repeats? What if Yachi-Chan is lying? What if-

"Hinata-Kun?" I look at Yachi-Chan, "are you okay?"

I see her holding our drinks. I nod, "sorry..."

{TIME SKIP}

"Yachi-Chan..." I watch as Yachi-Chan drinks from her straw. "Hmm?" I swirl my straw and look down at the purple liquid.

"Are we friends..?" I hear her stop drinking. "Of course we are! A-Are we not? I'm so sorry, I shouldn't have assumed!"

I look up from my drink to face her. "Do you want us to be friends?" I watch her nod rapidly. If she continues, she's going to get a headache. "I-I do!"

Silence occurs. "Do you not want to..?" I swirl my straw. "Why do you want to be my friend, Yachi-Chan?" She pauses. Of course, she doesn't have a reason-

"Because you're amazing!" I freeze. "You're nice and kind and smart and very skilled in volleyball!" I watch as she closes her eyes while she smiles. "Hinata-Kun... Anyone would be honoured to be friends with someone as great as you!"

I watch as she opens her eyes. She starts to panic a bit. "A-Ah! Sorry! I've said too-"

"I see..." She pauses. "I've never had much experience in friendship..." Her eyes glisten, and she looks worried.

"And I don't show many emotions anymore", I resume. Yachi-Chan looks like she's about to speak up, but I continue speaking.

"So please be patient with me", our eyes meet, and I can see her eyes widen as her mouth forms a smile. She nods, "I will, Hinata-Kun! I promise!"

... I know she will. I just need some reassurance.

"So... we're friends?" I pause for a bit. "I think we are..." Yachi-Chan smiles very brightly. Now would be a good time to smile. But... I can't push myself too.

{TIME SKIP}

"Are you okay with walking home by yourself, Hinata-Kun?" I nod. "I'll be fine, Yachi-Chan", I reassure her. She beams, "if you say so! See you tomorrow, Hinata-Kun!" I nod, "see you, Yachi-Chan."

I watch as she closes the door carefully. I start walking away and look at the sun setting. I should get home quickly before it turns dark...

I look down at my hand and see the keychain that Yachi-Chan gave me earlier.

"Hinata-Kun, take this!" Yachi-Chan hands me a keychain of a crow. She holds up another one that's identical to the one she gave me. "Look! Now we're matching!"

I stare at the two keychains. "It's kind of like friendship bracelets, but in a keychain form" I look at her before returning to the keychains. "It's a crow. Like Karasuno!"

I watch as she smiles happily. "Do you like it?" I stay silent. I can tell she's starting to worry a bit. "I-I can return it back if you don't like it..." I shake my head.

"I like it..."

I look at the crow's face. I haven't made a new friend in such a long time...

It feels... nice...

I'm back with the updates again! o(≧▽≦)o

On the last A/N, I made you guys pick between a couple of stories for what the next book should be ＼(＾▽＾)／ It appears that the winner is... "Skin As White As Snow" with a Hinata Harem!

But during my break, I have thought of more stories (＞ｍ＜) Unfortunately, you guys are going to have to pick again, terribly sorry o(TヘTo)

Skin As White As Snow (Hinata Harem)

Weatherman (Might change the title. I don't know what ship but it won't be a harem. MHA.)

Somehow (I haven't decided if I want it to be MHA or Haikyuu. A ship/Non-harem.)

He loved me (I haven't decided if I want it to be MHA or Haikyuu. Most likely Haikyuu. A ship/Non-Harem.)

Choose wisely (･ω<)☆ 

See you guys! (',,•ω•,,)♡
