Chapter 10: School is okay

⚞☽☆☾⚟ 

A new school hasn't been that bad, in fact, it was becoming quite nice. People haven't said anything about you surprisingly.  At Shiratoraizawa they did until Ushijima came along but they didn't know any better. They've only ever seen other Japanese people.

Well, two people have, you just haven't told Kuroo about it yet. Knowing he would be fuming.

A few weeks ago a couple was walking toward their room in the hall while you were grabbing a drink. The guy said, "You should straighten your hair, the way it looks now is kind of ugly." The girlfriend just laughed and looked at me briefly.

That comment had me spiraling for a few days, did I cry in the bathroom a little after that? Maybe. Even though you promised Kuroo to let him know if something like this did happen, you just couldn't bring yourself to worry him. When he asked what was wrong you just told him you missed your old school which he believed. 

Now there was a new talk of Nekoma, Ushijima.

Ever since he got injured his best friend Tendou made a donations page to help with the recovery of his injury. 

And people are mad.

"He goes to Shiratoraizawa, why would he need money?" "Isn't he rich? He goes to that fancy ass private school?" "He's way too popular to be asking us for handouts." "He'll probably use the money for himself anyway?" "Asking poorer people for money is selfish as fuck, he should be ashamed of himself." "How is this even allowed? He should be off the team"

Some of the many things people have said about Ushijima in the span of around two weeks.

It was so awful to hear all of these people talk badly about him and not know the reality of it. You knew him, before this stuff wouldn't have bothered him or he wouldn't have even seen it. But now, since he has grown in popularity on social media as well, this really must have been getting to him.

Ushijimas Pov: 

Things the last two weeks haven't been ideal. People are constantly talking about Tendou's donation page to help pay for my recovery. A lot of random people I don't know are having issues with me all of a sudden. 

Y/n would know what to do. If she didn't, she would know what to say to me to make me feel better for sure. 

She always did.

According to her though, I should be getting over her.

How could I get over my first love? My first kiss? My first time? 

It's impossible really, I know she just feels bad for leaving but how could I get over someone as amazing as her? From the first time we spoke, she seemed so caring and genuine. When I didn't know what to do in class she never once expected me to like other people did because I'm "The great Ushiwaka" that doesn't mean I know everything. 

And her humor always made me chuckle a bit until the point when I would burst out laughing from the smallest little comebacks. My cheeks would hurt, my stomach would burn, my face would turn bright pink. 

An affect that nobody else has had on me.

She affected me in many more ways than one.

From the way she completely changed me in the best way possible, from a quiet loner who's good at volleyball to a popular athlete who people can relate to.
