You were currently rushing to get dressed, struggling to put your tie on correctly.

"Could I get some help here?"

Akaashi approached you, fixing your tie and you apologized for having him help you for it.

"Sorry about this Keiji! Karasuno doesn't require ties, so I am woefully unprepared for this kind of uniform,"

He countered your apology with another apology,
"It's my fault, I should have told you I had morning practice,"

Your close proximity to him caused a speed-up in your heart rate.

"N-no, it's fine! It just makes things a little more interesting!"

He finished up with your tie, taking a look at you in the school's uniform,
"An interesting perspective,"

You weren't quite sure whether he was talking about your looks or what you had just said, but either way, you were still running late.

All you got to have for breakfast was a glass of water, making you hope that whatever lunch Akaashi had packed was good.

•

"Phew! We made it on time!"

You looked around the empty gym,
"...where are the others?"

You got no response, and found that the setter had disappeared.

After a few minutes of waiting, he reappeared, wearing a different set of clothes.

"That's where you were! Where are the others?"

You walked with him to a supply closet, helping him carry out some equipment.

"I like to be on time, although the others don't as much. Sometimes it's just me and Bokuto-san in the mornings,"

A wave of tiredness washed over you as you let out a yawn.

"I think I'm gonna take a nap, wake me up if something important happens,"

You walked over to the bleachers, laying down before closing your eyes.

•

A few minutes later, and Akaashi was doing his stretches while you napped away, unaware of the world around you.

"Akaashi! Sorry I'm late, I overslept, then I helped this old lady cross the street and-"

Akaashi held up a hand,
"It's alright, I'm sure you had your reasons,"

The owl-like boy smiled at his friend before zooming in on the strange boy sleeping on the bleachers.

"Who's that?"

He approached your sleeping body, crouching down to get a closer look at your face.

"Hello? Who are you?"

"Bokuto-san, he's asleep, he can't answer you,"

The older boy pouted at his underclassman,
"I know that! I was just joking!"

His booming voice caused you to stir in your sleep, a hand finding it's way onto the owl's hair.

"Mmm... soft..."

Bokuto turned towards Akaashi with an excited look, being careful not to let your hand slip away from his head,

"He said my hair is soft! We're totally gonna be best buds when he wakes up!"

"I can see that happening. I think we should start practicing though,"

The owl gently placed your hand off his head onto your stomach, and ran off to do his stretches.

•

You woke up with a start at the sound of a volleyball slamming into the ground a little too close to you.

"Sorry 'bout that! Wait, you're awake now!"

You rubbed your head, which hurt from laying down on the hard plastic of the bleachers.

"Mhm... you must be Bokuto?"

A look of amazement was on his face as he looked towards Akaashi,
"Akaashi! He knew my name! We must be fated to be best friends!"

"He knew your name because I already told him, Bokuto-san,"

The team captain deflated, sitting down with his back against the bleachers you were laying down on.

You pat his shoulder consolingly,
"That's alright, just because he already told me doesn't mean it wasn't fate!"

You saw something re-ignite with him, his chest puffing up.

"Your right! We can still totally be best friends!"

For some reason your hand gravitated to his head, which you ended up patting.
"Your hair is... soft,"

He leaned into your touch,
"That's what you said while you were sleeping!"

Akaashi watched from a distance, glad that the two of you were getting along, though a strange feeling of jealousy bubbled within him, the strangest part being that he wasn't sure who to be jealous of.

"Classes will be starting soon, we should clean up,"

The owl reluctantly stood up, missing the feeling of your hand in his hair.

"You're right Akaashi! Let's clean this up fast, I want to talk more with... with..."

He continued to stare at you, unsure of your name.

You whispered,
"(l/n),"

He continued, thinking that the whisper he heard came from his own thoughts,
"With (l/n)! Did you see that? I knew your name without anyone even telling me!"

He turned towards Akaashi proudly, not being able to see or hear you quietly chuckling.

You watched as they quickly took everything down, taking all of their equipment and supplies back into the closet.

Before walking into the changing room, the owl pointed at you,
"Don't move! We'll be right back!"

You only nodded, waiting for the two of them to return. While you waited, Your mind started to drift, thinking about everyone back home.

'I hope my succulent doesn't die... it should be fine,'

After a few more moments debating the current state of your succulent, the two volleyball players re-entered the gym, now wearing their normal school uniforms.

Before you knew it, they were both sitting on either side of you.

"So, (l/n), what school are you from?"

"Karasuno,"

"You in any clubs?"

"Photography,"

Then he started asking more important questions,
"Do you like volleyball?"

You tilted your head as you started to think,
"I don't really understand anything, but like it. I don't think I'd play it though,"

He whined,
"Why not!?"

You shrugged with a nervous grin,
"I'm not the best at sports. I play a mean game of wii tennis though!"

Luckily the bell rang before the conversation could go any further, and you saw the owl deflate as he knew he wouldn't be able to see you for a few more hours.

"Don't worry Bokuto senpai, I'll see you during lunch!"

He seemed reinvigorated by that thought, and the three of you walked your separate ways.

"Bokuto senpai is definitely... outgoing? He's a little weird, but I like that about him,"

He smiled softly as he thought about his best friend,
"As do I,"
