The ball slammed on the other side of the court as Lev scored a point to his team, "Nice kill!" Yelled out Yamamoto and Kai, he grinned at his teammates as Fukunaga high fived him. They were still playing against Fukurodani and catching up to them, they might win if They're captain keeps sulking like that.
Kaneko proudly took in-game notes to review later with the team, just as she was supposed to. She glanced to the other side of court at Karasuno and Shinzen high's game. The Latecomers who entered the gym in the afternoon that Yachi introduced to her in the girls' room as Hinata Shoyo and Kageyama Tobio had so much grit and energy for the game, that it was distracting her from her team's game and at the same time entertaining her.
But soon their game ended and Shinzen high lost against them, and they extended their arms and leapt to the floor for a lap of diving drills around court just like everyone agreed.
The karasuno's duo amazing freak attack caught her eye, but what surprised her more is that the ginger who was pretty much shorter than all the giants that roamed the gym was so dedicated to the sport and can jump super high, just like the little giant that she has seen once.
Her eyes went back to focus on the game.
"Yaku, nice recieve!" Cheered Lev to the libero as he took his stance and hunched over, eyes roaming around to his team. Inouka and Shibiyama were swapped out for Lev, cheering for him on the side for a moment until they're back in game. Lev was handling spikes, and Kaneko noticed as his jump was at the right pace to kenma's set, allowing him to score another point and win the match.
"Good..." mumbled Kaneko as she wrote some extra notes to help Lev and the other guys with Later, quickly going to grab the towels and drinks for the boys. But with her mind thinking of so many things, she didn't notice the ball that came hurling at her. "Hey! Watch out!-" Someone yelled out for her.
Her eyes widened as it got closer, but she just closed her eyes shut and hid her scrunched up face behind her shoulder, turning away and bracing herself for the hit that never came. When she opened her eyes slowly, she was met with the lean, muscular chest and dark blue eyes of the setter she was eyeing before.
"...oh." was the only thing she was able to mutter, he was pretty close.
His alert widened eyes gazed deeply into hers before he gulped and blinked, relaxing his tense body and letting out a breath of relief.
"Are you alright?" He mumbled quietly and softly, pursing his lips and taking a few steps backwards to have respectful distance between the two.
Kaneko nodded frantically and exhaled. "Thought I was gonna get hit..." She shook away her thoughts before smiling at him, "Thank you." He nodded once firmly and told her to be careful before he turned his head and subtly glared at a boy from his team, throwing the ball to him as he caught it with ease.
