2nd/1st persons POV
IT WAS ANOTHER DAY at the VNL and you could barely even keep track of the times anymore these days as you yawned, leaning on a wall for support, you were starting to miss Japan and couldn't wait for VNL to be over and eat your hometowns country's food again.
You closed your eyes and internally sulked in homesickness, missing your home, Kyoto... You were having your moment before suddenly being met with a deep voice not too far from you (or more like your face.)
"You're okay now?" You could feel his hot breath near your face as he said it with noticeable disappointment, you opened your eyes in shock startled by the sudden noise.
"Gah!" You exclaimed in shock and disbelief.
"Don't just sneak up on people like a weirdo!!!" You scolded the volleyball player as he gave you a funny smile in response.
"But I was looking forward to taking care of you..." He looked sideways seeming to be upset or maybe even wanting to look upset in front of you so that you could give him extra attention- but that was not at all in your plans as you stayed completely professional despite being a fan of his.
Did he not want me to get any better at all??? he did realize that I still have a life and a job right? You thought, scrunching your eyebrows in the process.
"Takahashi san~ you shouldn't be here, seriously- you have to stop coming here..." You deadpanned as your once calm and unbothered nature faded away and turned into a scary and strict one. Honestly, you couldn't recall how many times he's barged into the staff's room without your permission.
"Ehh...." He looked elsewhere again, this time feigning innocence as he ignored your words, being absorbed in his world. You had enough and pushed him outside as you reprimanded him to get ready for the game...
Ran Takahashi sighed as the door behind him closed, once again making his way back to the court after being rejected and dejected countless times.
Meanwhile~ back in the staff room, Asia was applauding herself for staying strong and true to herself and especially being extremely professional at avoiding Ran Takahashi's charms, she even patted herself on the back while singing along to the words: "I am so professional! I deserve a raise! even though I'm a fan girl! and Ran is really cute! I am staying strong!~"
You sighed thinking "It really is hard being an important asset to my company.." and even dared to wipe your sweat after doing the bare minimum of what was asked of you for your job.
The sound of the crowd cheering and the coaches shouting out instructions greeted you as you walked into the gym. You spotted Ran doing a few stretches nearby, surrounded by his teammates.
You sat down on the vacant seat and waited for the game to begin.
You see Ran running towards his position, his teammates following closely behind him.
