HAZEL'S POV



"I said it's okay if it is you."

"But-"

He tossed me the ball and I catched it. "You're the one who wants to do this. Come here, I'll teach you."

I came closer to him and he held the ball too. I touched his hand a little and I felt electricity so I dropped it.

"Oi don't drop the ball." he picked it up again.

It's because of your hand! "Hehe sorry."

"In volleyball you are not allowed to drop it or you will lose. You need to keep it floating while connecting it to your teammates." he explained.

"And how do I set the ball?" I want to toss the ball and he will spike it. But how? Is that hard?

"You want to learn the setter?" I nodded. "Here, watch my hands and look how I bend my fingers." he tossed the ball up and down. "Got it?"

"I think I got it. Let me try." I reached for the ball he gave me. I threw the ball up and looked at it, when it was falling I prepared my hand to catch it but I was too late so it landed straight to my face. "Ahh!"

"Hahaha!"

I heard someone's laughing so I immediately look around to see who it is but no one's around aside from me and Airon. Wait.. don't tell me he's the one who laugh? He can laugh?

"D-did you just laugh at me?" I asked and point him with my finger.

He's back to being serious again. "Don't point, it's rude."

"OMG! You can laugh?"

"I didn't laugh." then he looked away. Is he blushing? I saw it! He turned red! But it faded away already.

"No. I heard it. There's no one here except for us. The kids left already."

"Tss. So what, am I not allow-"

"Gad! It was you! Can you do it again? I want to see!"

"No. Forget it. Come on, the net is empty. Let's try to do it." he grabbed my hand and led me to the net. Court.

Hmmp!

"I'll throw the ball for you."

He looks hesitant. "Are you sure? You can't do it at first try."

"Hey! Don't underestimate me, I'm a fast learner." then I winked at him. I saw him looking away again.

"Okay. I'll go there." he moved away a little and ready to run and jump. So I threw the ball high and he jumped to spike but..

"Hahahahaha!" I'm laughing while he's glaring at me. His hand did not reached the ball and it fell on the top of his head.

"Fast learner huh?" - him.

"Hahahaha sorry sorry. That was a high toss. One more! Promise I'll make it right."

He positioned himself again and I threw the ball. But we failed over and over again. All I did was laugh everytime he would look at me, pissed because of a failed toss. Then I said we try for the last time and this time it was perfect so he spiked it hard.

"Yeyyyy! I made it!" I was amazed how he managed to hit that so I ran towards him excitedly and was about to hug him when I tripped over something and accidentally pushed him to the ground. I am on top of him and staring right through his eyes for a long time. He's very handsome right now and I noticed a two black dot on his forehead. Mole. Wow.

When I realized what our position look like, I got up and sit on the grass. I feel my heart beating so fast and my face is heating up.

"S-sorry. I just.. ahmm.."
