"Don't you ever think of doing that again

"Don't you ever think of doing that again." He said as he brushed her tears from her cheeks. "If you ever think you are worthless, just... remember what makes you beautiful. You're not worthless, you're worth more than anything the richest man ever could even take a loan for."

"I know you're trying to make me feel better, but did you really just quote One Direction at me?"

"Well, did that song mean nothing to you? I told you that's how I felt. And everyone laughed. I didn't think it was funny." Oikawa pouted.

She laughed, coughed lightly, and wrapped her arms around him. Pulling him close made her feel safe and she sighed to let go of her tension. "I'm sorry." Allison said. "Thank you. For being here."

"I'll be wherever you need me. I just hope that it's by your side. And forget AJ... She has her own issues and why would you want to be like her? Nobody wants two of her, let's be honest."

Allison giggled and smiled. "Hey! That's not very nice. Though now that I think about it... what's up with her anyways? She hasn't texted me in ages and I think the last time I saw her was at Nekoma's last game. Did you know we won? First time in the season."

"No way! That's great! Now Aoba Johsai has to play them for real, don't we? I won't be going easy and that's a promise."

'Stupid rain,' AJ thought as she watched it pour from her window. 'Actually, I like rain. Because now I get to stay inside. No wait... Rain is still annoying though. I don't even care, whatever.' She flipped over in her bed and faced the door. "I'm so freaking bored."

There was shouting from downstairs, and of course she knew who it came from. It was probably Kuroo and Bokuto again. She was not in the mood to celebrate Nekoma's victory with them. Why was Bokuto even celebrating? He wasn't even on the team. And if Nekoma won against Aoba Johsai, which was most likely not going to happen, then they would have to play against Bokuto's team. How was that going to work?

Three pairs of footsteps pounded up the stairs and AJ pressed a pillow to her ear to ignore them. 'Wait, three pairs?' And she was alert with her head raised in case one of those fools decided to enter her room. Now two of the fools on the second floor had run back down, and she could faintly hear something about "Let's make a mud pit! Like pigs!"

"What are they, five? No, five is giving them too much credit." AJ muttered out loud, still remaining quiet to hear the third pair of feet shuffling around in the room next door. She had a few guesses as to who it could be, and on the top of the list was Kenma.

"Think of the devil, here is the man himself." She said into her pillow as her door creaked open and a hooded, hunched Kenma appeared in the doorway. "What do you want? I'm up here for a reason, you know."

He slid into her gaming chair and turned it around to her. "No need to be rude. I was just seeing how you were doing and I guess I'll leave if that's how it's gonna be."
