Other Ways to Fly~ Haikyuu x OC

One Last Time

The weekend finally came and Himari was ready to reunite with her team. She was sad that it was going to be their last time before the third years left, but she was proud of them.

"Mari, I'm cooking a big dinner, so invite your team, kay?"

Himari nodded at her mom before leaving her house. Kiyoko was also leaving her house at the same time.

"Ready to go?"

Himari nodded, "Absolutely."

The two walked the same way they always did when going to school and after fifteen minutes they made it.

In front of the gym, Hinata and Kageyama were panting, obviously having raced each other there.

"Who won?" Himari asked.

"Me," Kageyama replied.

"I'm going to win next time, just wait."

Himari laughed and sat down beside where Hinata was lying face down. While they waited, Himari braided Hinata's hair. He didn't mind though since his sister often did it too.

They waited another ten minutes when the second years showed up and right behind them were the third years and the rest of the first years.

"Takeda has the keys, so we can't get in," Kiyoko said.

Tanaka groaned and then turned to the third year manager, "Let me help you with that bag."

Kiyoko had a small smile on her face and handed her bag to Tanaka. The whole team waited patiently for the advisor and coach to arrive.

Takeda arrived first, rushing with the key in his hand, "I'm so sorry! I had a meeting!"

"No problems here, so slow down," Tanaka told him with a smile.

Takeda opened the gym and allowed them in. Hinata sprung up and ran in, immediately going for the volleyball cart.

"Oh, guys, my mom invited you all for dinner."

"I'm so in! The food last time was delicious!" Noya exclaimed.

"Same here!"

While everyone was stretching, Ukai and the rest of the neighborhood association arrived. Himari smiled, remembering when Ukai had first arrived.

"Alright guys, let's get this thing started!"

The games lasted all day. Eventually, they weren't even playing by the rules, but they were having fun.

They had eaten all the snacks Himari and Kiyoko had brought and were still hungry. Himari smiled and texted her mom that they were on their way.

"Alright guys, go change and let's go to my house!"

The boys quickly changed and everyone then walked with Himari back to her house.

"I'm home!"

Ayaka quickly got to the front door to greet the guests with a smile. She kissed Himari on the forehead before ushering everyone into the living room.

"Everyone relax while I set the table."

Himari, Kiyoko, and Yachi tried to get up to help, but Ayaka gave them a stern look and they sat back down.

"Suga, what career are you going into?"

Suga smiled widely, "Elementary education. I mean dealing with kids shouldn't be any different than dealing with you guys."

Tanaka and Noya gasped, "We are not hard to deal with!"

Everyone laughed and began talking about their plans for the next month. Himari poked the side of Daichi's head and he looked at her.

"Are you going to announce the next captain at dinner?"

Daichi put a hand on her head, "Yup. Though, I'm sure you already know who it is."

Himari nodded, "I have a hunch."

"Everyone, dinner is ready!"

They all got up and went to the dining area. When their eyes landed on the food, they practically began drooling.

"This looks amazing!"

"Well, don't just stare at it, sit down and eat!" Ayaka exclaimed.

Everyone did as they were told and immediately started piling their plate up with food. As they were eating, Daichi cleared his throat,

"Um, everyone, since I have graduated, I'm obviously not the captain anymore. After a lot of discussion with everyone on the team I decided to pass this role onto Ennoshita."

Ennoshita looked shocked. He began looking around at everyone to see if it was a joke, but they were just nodding and agreeing with Daichi.

"Why me?"

Noya laughed, "Come on dude! You're the best choice! You know how to keep us in line and how to encourage us when we're down."

Kinoshita nodded, "Plus, you've quit the team before and came back. I think that makes you a great leader because you know how it feels to be down."

Narita smiled, "You're literally the best choice we have. You really can't expect Tanaka to be a good captain."

"Hey! I could be!" He exclaimed. He then looked at Ennoshita with a smile, "The moment you took over when Daichi was out of the game was the moment I knew you'd be a great captain, so stop being so modest and accept the position!"

Ennoshita's shocked face turned into a smile, "Huh, I really couldn't ask for a better team to be the captain of."

Everyone cheered and laughed before looking hungrily at their food.

"Let's eat!"

That night, everyone ate their fill. They laughed and talked until it was time for them to go home, though they just wanted to stay in that moment forever.

After everyone left, Himari realized how glad she was to be a part of the perfectly chaotic team that was Karasuno.
