Mr. Bartender // SakuAtsu

Chapter 5

That night, they had the time of their lives. Very unaware of what comes on Monday.

Monday

The night before, they went almost all night, until they both fell asleep in each other's arms from exhaustion, wrapped under the thick comforter.

Very early in the morning, after his time with Kiyoomi, he wrote a note before sneaking out and going straight home. Embarrassed, nervous, and still happy.

Hey Kiyoomi

Sorry I left early. I have a lot to do today but I feel like I made you uncomfortable. I had a great time though. Um it might be better if we don't see each other again... Sorry..

~Atsumu

 On Monday morning, Atsumu wakes up to his alarm going off. Instead of getting up, he smacks his hand down on top of the alarm, shutting it off almost right away. And not much later, without realizing it, Atsumu fell back asleep.

Sometime later

Waking up once more, Atsumu finally sits up and looks around. The sun shone in through his blinds, going straight into his eyes.

"Agh! That's bright." He grumbles.

Searching for the phone, Atsumu sees it on the floor instead of on his bed where he had it the previous night. The blond grumbles once more but chooses to finally climb out of bed. As he makes his way out of bed, his leg gets wrapped up in his blanket causing his to tumble to the floor.

"Damn..." He complains while rubbing his forehead. Though, finally he grabs his phone as he untangles himself and stands. Checking the time, he practically screams.

"'m late to practice!" His eyes go wide with shock and he almost drops his phone. "Practice starts at 8 today and it's 8:30. Coach is gonna be pissed." He quietly curses himself as he rushes to brush his teeth, change, and grab his gym bag.

After about 10 minutes, he reaches the gym where the rest of his team would be. 

As Atsumu enters the gym, Hinata and Bokuto stop their practice and run over to the blond. "TSUM 'TSUM!" They yell in unison almost knocking Atsumu over from the jumping and giving him a hug.

"Hey you guys." He says, slightly suffocating from the extremely tight hug.

"Oh! Sorry-" Hinata says as both him and Bokuto pull away from the blond, finally letting him breathe. "You should get changed and we can practice together 'Tsumu!" Bokuto adds on.

The blond nods his head then quickly jogs over to the coach and speaks, "Sorry 'm late to practice coach." Atsumu scratches his neck as the coach closes his eyes and sighs.

"It's fine, try not to be late again. We have a quick team meeting today, so be glad you didn't miss it." The coach speaks, eyes on the blond. Atsumu quickly nods before running to get changed into his practice wear.

Atsumu puts his things into his bag, then shoves it into his locker. He quickly leaves the locker room and goes over to where Bokuto and Hinata are practicing their receives. 

As Hinata receives a ball, Atsumu quickly jumps in before it touches the ground, to set the ball up and over the net, right into the ball basket.

"Wah, 'Tsum 'Tsum that was cool!" Bokuto cheers with a huge, ear to ear grin sprawled across his face.

Hinata jumps onto Atsumu's back smiling as well, and giving praise once more. "good job 'Tsumu!" He yells.

"Alright lets get to practice." Atsumu says with a smirk, clearly liking the praise and comments.

He enjoys comments from people, though most think he's cocky. Which is true sometimes. But he uses that 'cockiness' that people say he has, to push away any negative feeling he has. Atsumu doesn't rely on his ego or compliments. He's actually a good guy, but people have this image of him that hasn't seemed to have disappeared yet. His brother, Osamu, sure he would say that Atsumu was cocky, but they have their fights and are twins. They don't mean any negative or rude thing they say to the other.You'd just have to get to know Atsumu to be able to get in, and see his true and real personality.

After Atsumu warmed up his body, doing some lunges, arm stretches, and a few laps, he decided that he was finally ready to set for his two friends, Hinata and Bokuto.

"Hey! 'm warmed up now." He says, walking up to the duo.

They turn to the blond, smiling and toss a ball to him. "We'll practice some serving and receiving first 'Tsumu." Hinata replies, "You can serve first 'Tsum 'Tsum." Bokuto adds.

Atsumu nods and walks over to one side of the court as the other two get into their spots. Bokuto receiving first and Hinata on the side lines. 

The blond throws the ball up into the air and takes a few steps forward right before jumping up. His hand swings down and makes contact with the ball, making a 'smack' sound and it flies, slamming onto the court floor. Gravity lets Atsumu land his feet onto the floor around the same time.

Bokuto attempts to make contact with the ball, but is a second too late.

"Woah! 'Tsumu, you got better at serving!" Hinata yells, "My turn to serve now!"

Atsumu chuckles, giving the red head his big signature grin. Bokuto then goes to the side lines and Atsumu goes to receive.

As Hinata readies his arm by doing a few simple stretches to limit the chance of an injury, Bokuto and Atsumu make small conversation.

"Bokkun, are ya thinking of proposing to Akaashi still?" Atsumu asks, raising a brow. Bokuto's face goes bright red, "Ah! Um yeah I am..." He mumbles loud enough for the blond to hear.

"I'm ready now 'Tsumu!" Hinata calls across the court, lining himself up to serve the ball.

As Hinata is about to toss the ball up, the gym doors open, catching everyone's attention. 'Huh,' Atsumu thinks to himself as he glances over to Bokuto and Hinata, who are looking at the doors, shock on Hinata's face alone.

When Atsumu finally turns aaround, the mystery person everyone was staring at is gone. The blond stands there dumbfounded, "Who was everyone starin' at?" He asks Hinata as he walks over to the red head. "He's-"

"Alright everyone! Come line up for a moment. Our new member is here." Meian interrupts as he calls throughout the gym.

The trio look at each other before joining the rest of the team that was already lined up.

Once everyone was in front of both, the coach and captain of the team, they spoke.

"Okay, our new member will be out in a moment, so please be patient." Not long after, the male came out from behind the two older members, closing a door behind himself. As he stands next to Meian, Atsumu's lost in thought, unaware of the man that's standing before the team. "You may introduce yourself."

'Why was Hinata actin' so weird when the new guy came in?' The blond is fully lost in thought until he heard a certain voice.

"Hi... My name is Sakusa Kiyoomi..."
