Chapter 2 - Helpful (Remake!)

You pulled on your knee brace and ran a hand through your unruly black hair that needed a thorough brushing.

You sighed as you looked at the time, 5:34 am. Why were you up at such an ungodly hour? Just for fun? Nope!

You had agreed to help Hinata and Kageyama prepare for the upcoming three on three practice game. Why did you agree to help those two?

You grabbed your hairbrush and brushed through multiple knots until your hair was smooth and straightened. Sleeping with your hair in a bun caused way too many knots for your liking.

" Jeez, I need to take better care of my hair. "

You muttered under your breath, placing your hairbrush down on your dresser before tying your hair into a messy bun. Why did you go through the hassle of brushing it when you were just going to make a mess of it?

You shrugged your shoulders as you contemplated every life choice you've made, grabbing your bag off the floor and swinging it over your shoulder as you trudged out of your bedroom.

You quietly walked downstairs and left the house, hoping not to wake Kiyoko up. You knew that she would not be happy to be woken up at such an early hour of the morning.

You made the short 10-minute walk to the school and headed to the gym, already hearing Hinata and Kageyama bickering about something. You rolled your eyes as you slid open the gym doors.

" Y/N! I didn't know you would be here this morning! "

Tanaka said with a flustered hue of pink dusted on his cheeks. You gave a soft laugh, nodding your head as you placed your bag down.

" Yeah, I've heard how bad they are, I'd like to see for myself so I know what exactly we need to work on. "

Hinata's brows furrowed in anger as he gave a slight huff.

" We are not bad! "

You looked at him with a smirk.

" I find it hard to believe that. I've heard you only play volleyball to be just like the Tiny Giant. You don't actually know a whole lot about volleyball, do you? "

You asked Hinata, whose face turned a bright hue of red.

" Well, no, not really.. I don't know much else other than spiking. "

Hinata said shyly as he fidgeted with his fingers, looking down at his shoes as he shuffled uncomfortably.

You noticed his body language and frowned, walking over to him and placing both of your hands on his shoulders.

" Hinata, I didn't mean it as a bad thing. I heard that you are still an amazing spiker! "

You said with a bright smile on your face. Hinata raised his head to look at you, a pink blush dusting his cheeks as he frantically waved his hands.

" I-I don't know if I would say an amazing spiker! I-I guess I'm okay! "

You laughed softly at just how flustered Hinata became by you touching his shoulders.

" Can we get back to practising? We don't have all morning. "

Kageyama said with a scowl on his face. You looked towards him as he turned away, bouncing the volleyball on the court floor.

" Yes, of course! Let's get to it! Let's start with receives. I want to see how well you handle a serve, okay? "

The two boys went to the other side of the court while you positioned yourself at the opposite end, holding a volleyball in your hand as you got ready to serve.
