Flower Language ~ Haikyuu

19: Lilium

Orange Lily - Hatred

I woke up suddenly, not knowing how long I was asleep. It was much darker, and my glasses had fallen off, so I couldn't see if anyone was awake or not. I was laying down, my head resting on Asahi's shoulder. He was asleep, and I'm assuming everyone else was. I felt around for my glasses, but I couldn't find them. I felt someone put something in my hand, groaning lightly. The person walked off, so I put them on.

I looked around to see who it was, but everyone seemed to be dead asleep. I laid back down next to Asahi, not feeling the need to get back up. Plus, if I moved, I would be cold again. So, I (basically) snuggled up next to Asahi, falling asleep again.

Tsukishima Kei's POV

I hate her, right? I mean, if she hates me, then I have to too. She yelled at me for being a good person, because that was exactly what I was doing. The girl tried hurting her, so it was my every right to want to know what happened. But seeing her with Asahi sparked this...bubbling anger inside of my stomach that I couldn't understand.

She just sat next to Asahi, and practically cuddled with him. The thoughts that they were in love kept me up, and I watch as she slept next to our ace. She woke up, and was looking around for something. I groaned, and walked over to hand them to her. I walked back to my futon in a hurry, so she wouldn't see me. Because I don't care about her, its just that seeing her look so pathetic was tiring. I pretended to be asleep, until I heard her lie down again.

I sat up, and saw her asleep next to Asahi, her lungs peacefully rising and falling. I turned away, trying to go to sleep.

Kozume Kaori's POV

I was woken up by a bright light shining in my eyes. I hit the source of the light, and felt my hand hit someone's leg. My eyes adjusted to my surroundings, and noticed that I had knocked Nishinoya off of his feet. I got up quickly, helping him up.

"Gomen, Noya-san!!" I apologized, but he looked at me in shock. "What did I do this time?" I glumly asked.

"You knocked me off of my feet by just hitting my legs. How strong are you?!" He exclaimed in disbelief. I waved him off, and quickly changed into my practice clothes. We headed off to breakfast, until I realized Yamaguchi was left behind. I snuck back to our room, and saw Yams sleeping with a body pillow. I lightly shook him awake, and he slowly opened his eyes.

He turned pink, and said sorry about 20 times. I waited for him to change, and we went to go get food. "Kaori-san, do you like anyone? I mean, like like," he timidly asked after a minute of awkward silence. 

"Maybe, but how would I know? Last time I liked someone it was, never mind. I guess Oikawa is nice, and so is Asahi. But would you count a platonic love as liking someone?" I answered. It was confusing, but so was my understanding of love. I'm not even sure if I even loved Morisuke, or was blinded by the fact that I was desperate for human interaction at the time. 

" I guess not. Why are you upset at Tsukki?" he asked again.

"Earlier that day, he was pulling me to the nurse's office, despite my protests. He didn't express any care, and maybe everything would have been fine if he had. But he just dragged me along, and even yelled at me. Then, he demanded I explain what had happened. When I told him, he just got angry at me! He was being pushy and rude, so I yelled back. I was upset so let him know," I explained. Yamaguchi nodded, and we arrived that the cafeteria. 

He followed me to the line, and I noticed he didn't have much food on his plate. I sighed, and put a bit more on it. He thanked me, and we walked back to the table. I noticed there was only room for one seat next to the rest of Karasuno, so I let Yams take it. I looked around for another seat, and saw Bokuto waving frantically from across the room.
