it was ironic.

a few nights ago atsumu had asked if you would drop him since you and osamu were talking again, and you said you wouldn't, though now it seemed like he dropped you.

now the only time he wanted to associate with you was for tutoring.

you make up with osamu and now the other brother doesn't want to hang out with you?

you didn't want to think about atsumu though, your reasons being:

first, it was miya atsumu.

second, he was your tutor.

third, he was your friend's brother. 

"what are you thinking about?" osamu asked.

you were supposed to be doing a worksheet with him right now. you simply shook your head. it wasn't a big issue, you didn't know why it suddenly was to you.

"homework is dragging me right now. i'm just a little stressed."

it wasn't the total truth, though homework was hard for you right now.

the boy winced, turning back to the worksheet.

"sounds rough."

"it is. ooh, you know what i'm thinking?"

osamu shook his head, "and i rather not know." he already knew whatever you thought of was probably dumb. 

but, of course, you told him anyway, "i'm thinking you do my work for me!"

osamu almost laughed at your ridiculous suggestion, "you couldn't pay me to do you work."

"are you suree?"

"very sure."

you pouted. you should've known better than to ask osamu.

"you're mean."

"i can help you, i won't do it for you though."

you rolled your eyes, "i'll pay someone else to do it."

after a minute or two you managed to focus on the sheet. the two of you were in the middle of doing it when he suddenly asked, "hey, do you want to come to practice today?"

you rose a questioning brow, "and do what?"

"help out? you used to play, no?"

"well, yeah, but that was a while ago. i rather not."

"you don't have to be on the court with us. it would really help if you could refill our waters, shag balls, hit, that stuff."

you lifted your gaze to meet osamu's, "i don't know.. sounds boring. why are you asking me to come anyway?"

osamu shrugged, "it's just a suggestion. maybe it could take your mind off things."

"seriously? you think shagging balls for you guys is going to help me?"

the boy shrugged again, "like i said, just a suggestion."

normally you would stay after school and work in a classroom while you waited for the boys to finish practice.

the free time could've been used to work, but lately, you felt drained, so you agreed.

"okay, i'll come with you after school."

osamu smiled softly, content that he convinced you.

-

you followed him into the gym. a few guys were already setting up.

kita and suna were tightening the net while some others were getting balls into the ball cart. one of those people was atsumu.

the boy made you scowl.

"coach kurosu should be here soon. if i'm not here just tell him you're helping out today. i'm gonna go change."

you nodded, watching him leave.

you sat on the bench, idly waiting for an opportunity to help. at the moment it seemed like everyone was doing their parts.

the blonde eventually noticed you were there and came over to you.

you glanced up at him with a small scowl.

"i didn't know you'd be coming today, y/n."

"i didn't know either," you admitted, getting a small grin out of atsumu.

"i'm glad you're here. i've missed you."

you wanted to be annoyed, or maybe even petty because it seemed like he had been avoiding you, but you couldn't help but give in. you told yourself that you hated him using his lines, but the truth was that you didn't.

still, you couldn't outright say that nor show it, so you quickly shot back, "really? you've been dodging me lately, so it's funny you would say that."

atsumu laughed lightly, a hint of smugness flickering across his face.

"i'm not dodging you, y/n, i've just been busy. sounds like you missed me too though."

you didn't know what to say because you did miss him. what was he busy doing though? it was none of your business, but the question lingered. 

"i've been practicing on my free time.. if you're wondering what i've been doing."

you scoffed slightly, "i wasn't.. and osamu asked me to help today. that's why i'm here."

"sure you weren't," he teased, "but anyway, you're not here to watch your favorite player?" he gestured toward himself.

you snorted, "you wish. i think kita might be my favorite player."

atsumu's smile dropped. he looked back at kita, then at you.

"do you mean that?"

you nodded, his eyes going wide.

he looked genuinely hurt for a minute, but quickly played it off, instead smiling at you, "wow. okay, that's news. i'm sure he'd be flattered."

"he's cute too," you added, earning a short laugh from atsumu.

that was something you had said just to mess with atsumu a little more. kita was admittedly very cute though, probably one of the cutest players on the team.

he had that cute 'cat boyfriend' look that you found endearing. 

"oh and does that give him bonus points?"

"yeah, plenty. easy on the eyes."

the blonde nodded his head slowly. "okay.. practice starts soon, maybe you'll change your mind."

"i've gone to almost every single one of your games, so i doubt it."

"we'll see."
