Long Distance || Suna Rintaro ||

Chapter 4- Backstory?

Suna's POV-

I was siting in class trying to sleep. I was going to do my homework later and pull another all nighter. I was about to finally fall asleep till Osamu woke me up (again).

"Do you have a thing for ruining my sleep?" I asked him. I lifted my head off the desk and looked up at him.

"Wow someone is grumpier than usual"

"Ugh what do you want?" I said annoyed and put my head back on the desk.

"How'd you and L/N meet?"

"Why do you wanna know?"

"Because"

I raised my head up at his answer and gave him a deadpan look. I shook my head and placed it back on the desk.

"If ya tell me I'll give ya blackmail photos of Atsumu"

"Annnnd it's story time" I said immediately raising my head up off the desk again.

Osamu sat down next to me and waited for me to start. He had the look of a curious child as he waited for me to start.

"So we first met back in our first year of middle school"

*flashback*
Suna's POV-

This was when I still lived in Tokyo and it was my first day at middle school. I didn't like talking to people so I didn't really have any friends.

I did join the volleyball team but, I really didn't talk to my teammates a lot.

Everything changed when Y/N started to train to become the next manger for the team.

We already had a 3rd girl for our manger so it made sense when Y/N joined.

I was practicing my serves when she walked into the gym. When I looked over I had two things on my mind.

1. Is she in the wrong gym?
2. She is really pretty

The manger then called everyone over to meet Y/N. She didn't look nervous at all and was able to introduce herself with no problem.

"I'm L/N Y/N, I hope to be your future manger! Thank you for having me" she said while bowing to everyone.

We all welcomed her and got back to work. When I was running back over to work on my serve we made eye contact. That's basically how everything started.

Every day after practice and sometimes during lunch we would hang out and get to know each other. Then half way through our 3rd year into middle school we started dating.

We were super happy, then everything changed when I got scouted for Inarizaki and Y/N had to move to Miyagi because of her parents work.

We both found out about this during our lunch break, 2 weeks till we finish middle school.

I was siting down by a tree in the shade and Y/N walked up to me. I looked up at her and smiled a bit. She smiled back and sat down next to me.

"Rin.. I need to tell you something..." she whispered out. At first I thought she was going to break it off with me. I didn't wanna jump to conclusions though so I let her continue.

"I do too... but you go first"

She paused for a second then said, "after middle school I'm leaving Tokyo and moving to Miyagi"

My heart dropped when I heard that, and knowing where I have to move to. We'd be farther apart from each other.

I could see the tears forming in her eyes yet she didn't make eye contact with me. I sighed and looked away from her and said, "I'm also moving... I got scouted for a school in Hyogo and they want me to play on their volleyball team"

She looked over at me and gave me a big hug. "That's great!!! I'm really happy for you Rin!"

I was shocked a bit but, I hugged her back immediately. "I know but we'll be farther from each other... I know we're only in middle school and these kind of relationships don't work out. But I still wanna try..."

She pulled away from me and cupped my cheek, "we'll find a way to make it work and we'll just have to hope for the best, ok?" She said with a soft smile and tear running down her cheek.

I smiled back at her and nodded my head, trying not hold back my own tears. "Yeah.. that will do"

After that day we didn't see each other till we had to leave. Surprisingly neither of us cried. We both wanted to (I wanted too) but we didn't and said our good byes to each other.

We haven't seen each other in person since but, we always call, text, and FaceTime each other.

*end of flash back*

I fished explaining everything to Osamu not knowing my eyes started to water up. I looked away for a second and wiped away the tears. I looked back at him.

"So the photos?"

Osamu snapped out of his daze, he looked sad or disappointed? I couldn't tell nor did I care.

He sent me the photos and got up out of the seat he was siting in.

He was about to say something to me but stopped and walked back to his seat in the classroom. I took out my phone and saved the pictures.

I scrolled through my gallery and looked at all of the photos I took with Y/N before we moved.

'Soon... soon we'll see each other' I thought. I put my phone away when the bell rang and the teacher started up class again.
