Thirty Three

"Sorry for the intrusion." A barely audible voice sounded from the back of the room as the back door slides open. [Name] turned her head around to take a look at the newly arrived member of the committee.

"Oh, come on in. You must be the representative for Class 1-4." The teacher in charge, Sumiko welcomed him. It certainly felt like a slap to the face when [Name] saw Tsukishima standing by the door, his golden eyes staring back at hers.

"What is he doing here?" She mumbled to himself. Yuno, who was sitting by her side and also the representative of Class 1-2, suddenly got brilliant idea, grinning widely to herself.

"Please, have a seat." Sumiko gestured towards one of the empty seats, snapping Tsukishima back to reality. He nodded and did as he was told, seating at the far right of the classroom, away from [Name]. As the teacher continued with his explanation on the roles of the committee, the two shared occasionally glances, looking away immediately as soon as their eyes meet. This did nothing to help the questions they had for each other.

It only fueled Yuno's excitement; unbeknownst to the both of them, of course.

"So, shall we have a discussion who would be in which team?" Sumiko concluded, rearranging the notes on his hands. Tsukishima and [Name] turned their attention back to the teacher, a little guilty for not listening to his explanation.

"I'm fine with whatever role I get." Tsukishima stated with a shrugged, his voice disinterested. I'm just going to let them handle everything and do the minimal amount of work, so I don't care what I get. A couple others nodded in agreement.

"Well then, let's do this." Yuno stood up, suddenly taking charge. No one was against it though. "Tomone, Oga and I would be on the prop and costume team and [Name] and Tsukishima can be on the script and cast team." [Name] and Tsukishima snapped their heads towards the setter wide eyed.

"That seems fine." Tomone shrugged in agreement. Oga was hesitant to agree but immediately nodded when Yuno threatened him with a silent grin. The two victims however didn't get a chance to say anything, still speechless. "I guess we've decided on the teams then? Alright, so let's wait for Tsukishima-san and [Name]-san to come up with a rough idea for the play and we can start with our part."

"Meanwhile, why don't we leave them to discuss and the prop team would work on the announcement posters to pick out the rest of the first years to help out." Sumiko suggested. The grin on Yuno's face stretched wider, clearly pleased with the teacher subconscious help.

"Right, right! Let's leave them alone where they can work in silence." Yuno said suggestively, skipping towards the door. Both Oga and Tomone followed her actions, getting off their seats as well.

"We can do it in the next room." Tomone cleared his throat, finally getting a hint of Yuno's plans. He nudged Oga's elbow, startling him a little.

"Uh, right. I'll get the papers from the teacher's office!" Oga stuttered, still a little unsure what Yuno was up to.

Watching the committee members taking initiative, Sumiko wiped his animated tears. "Amazing, they're so motivated this year. I'm already proud."

"S-Sensei... You're too dramatic..." Oga sweat dropped.

"W-Wait, w- " [Name] and Tsukishima exclaimed in a synchronized fashion, jumping out of their chairs, reaching their hands out to them. However they were too late.

"Good luck with your work!" Yuno waved at them goodbye, pushing everyone out of the room, leaving [Name] and Tsukishima alone in the room.

"Seriously..." Tsukishima groaned, dropping back into his seat, slightly irritated. He rubbed his temples, unable to believe his terrible luck. First being forced to join this circus and now this?
