The sleepy seventeen year old yawned as he strolled into the gym for morning practice. His night was amazing, but his morning not so much. He had scrambled out of bed, nearly knocking over his smaller girlfriend.
Luckily, she was in just as much of a hurry, she had early volleyball practice too, so they were able to get out the door. “What’s up with your hair?” Nishinoya pointed at him. Huh? “My hair?”
“Did you forget to brush it this morning?” Tanaka drawled. Asahi ran his hand through his hair, dammit. In his haste, he hadn’t properly brushed it back, so it was sticking out in all directions. With his fingers, he did his best to tame it.
“Asahi-san!” Hinata chirped from behind him. He jumped back, afraid he was going to get yelled at. If he finds out what I did, I’ll be dead! “Jumpy much?” Kageyama cocked an eyebrow. “He’s just afraid because he went out with Hinata’s sister last night,” Tanaka jested. Asahi’s face flushed. They were already starting to tease him? That didn’t take long.
“How was it?” Diachi put his hand on Asahi’s shoulder. He started to sweat bullets. If the Captain found out about what he had done with Chiharu last night….He didn’t even wanna think about it! Tsukki adjusted his glasses, “Calm down dude, otherwise they may start to think you were able to sleep with her.” The gleam on his black glasses covered the blond first-year’s intense eyes, “Unless you did?”
Was it that obvious?! He felt something like daggers stabbing into his back. He glanced over his shoulder to see Diachi glaring at him. “You know better, Asahi.”
“She stayed with my sister last night,” Suga spoke up. Diachi’s mood instantly changed, “Never mind then! Let’s start practice!”
“Right!”
Asahi’s gaze slid over to Suga. The grey-haired boy gave him an encouraging smile and a thumbs up, telling Ashahi his friend had his back.  “You’ll have to give us all the details later, man!” Tanaka grinned and slapped Asahi on the back, “I’m so proud of you!”
“Thanks.”

As practice ended, Asahi couldn’t help but feel a little bit guilty. Lying to Hinata, and Suga was involved with it too. The hot water of the locker room shower ran over his aching muscles. Think about something else…ummm….
His mind immediately went to Chiharu. Her skin on his, her hot kisses, the way she groaned while he was on top of her, and the way that cute beauty mark would stretch when her back would arch. Who would’ve thought such a little girl could be so loud, and have so much stamina! Ok, the first time wasn’t that good, but after a second go at it…..
His face began to heat up just thinking about it. He rubbed the little hickey she had left on his chest, and the spots on his back where her nails had dug into his back stung under the hot water.
He shook his head that was not something to be thinking about right now! Besides, she had said morning practice was usually short, she’d be waiting for him to get back. He had to hurry.
He turned off the water and reached for his towel, once he wrapped it around his waist, he stepped out so he could put his clothes back on. “Asahi-san?”
He looked up and saw Hinata. Oh, shit. “What’s that on your chest?” the first year pointed to the hickey. He had no idea what it was, thank God. “Oh this?” Asahi laughed nervously, “I guess I got a bruise when I fell on the way to practice.”
Hinata chuckled, “Damn, you’re such a klutz!” He breathed a sigh of relief. “Baka!” Tanaka gave Hinata a good whack alongside his head, “It’s obviously a hickey, haven’t you ever seen one?”
Asahi shook his head and threw up his hands, trying to tell his underclassmen to shut up. Tanaka’s eyes widened as he realized his mistake, “Oh crap…” Hinata’s face began to glow red, out of embarrassment or anger, Asahi wasn’t sure.
“Hey, dude, what’s with those marks on your back?” Nishinoya blabbed from behind him, “You look like you got into a fight with an animal of some sort!”
Well, there went his cover. Kageyama wasn’t saying anything, in fact he seemed like he could care less.
Asahi’s face slowly began to turn redder and redder. A low growl seemed to rumble from Hinata. “Oi, oi, calm down,” Tanaka patted the orange-haired blocker’s head. “You, you…”
Suddenly Hinata leapt for him, “You damn son of a bitch! Stayed at Katsuki’s my ass!” Tanaka restrained the angry teen with help from Kageyama. Asahi yelped and fell backwards, his body landing with a loud and painful thud! Hinata looked like a rabid beast ready to rip Asahi to shreds! “Hinata! Chill out!” Kageyama ordered, “It was bound to happen! Everyone does it!”
“Hey what’s going on in here?” Suga poked his head around the corner. “Yeah, you guys are being way too damn loud.” Diachi appeared behind Suga. The Captain’s eyes widened when he saw the hickey on his classmates chest. “You’re so dead, man,” Nishinoya put his hand on his shoulder.
Asahi gulped, “I know.”
There went the Captain…his eyes grew dark, that creepy smile, Asahi’s death was just a matter of minutes. “Diachi, calm down,” Suga tried to comfort him. “You’re just as guilty!” Hinata then directed his anger towards Suga, “You covered for him!” Even with his back to them, Asahi knew Suga’s face was bright red. “I didn’t think he’d actually…you know.”
“I’ve had enough of this!” Nishinoya bellowed. He leapt up onto the bench in the middle of the lockers and pointed at Asahi, “Just fess up already! Did you or did you not have sex with Hinata-kun’s sister?!”
“Don’t say it like that!” Tanaka stammered as he still held the struggling first year. Nishinoya’s eyes bored into Asahi. This is exactly why he DIDN’T say anything. The Ace sighed and got back on his feet, “I did, but if it’s any consolation,” He looked Hinata straight in the eye. He stopped for a second and froze under his upperclassmen’s look. “I-I asked her, if she had said no, I would’ve gone straight to Suga’s and dropped her off. She wanted to stay with me.”
“But why?” Hinata breathed, “She’s my sister, and you slept with her.”
His face began to turn red, he had to say it, even if Hinata never forgave him, he had to know the truth. “I-I-I did it because….because….“ There was only way to say it. “She’s everything I had dreamed of, I know I should’ve asked you before we went to bed, but...” He closed his eyes, clenched his fists, and yelled, “I’m in love with her!” There wasn’t a sound in the room. Everyone was staring at him.
Tanaka dropped a stunned Hinata to the floor, even in a daze, he landed on his feet. Sweat began to drip off Asahi’s brow, this was really making him nervous. What were they thinking? Was Hinata still upset?
Just then, both Tanaka and Nishinoya began to tear up. “Asahi-san!” Nishinoya slammed his hands onto his friend’s shoulders. There were tears streaming down the little libero’s face, “That was amazing, I’m so proud of you!”
“A man professing his love!” Tanaka sobbed as he wiped his face with his forearm, “It’s a beautiful thing! Way to go Asahi!”
“Asahi-san!” Hinata cried, apparently he was crying to, “I had no idea you felt that way! I forgive you!”
“You guys are too dramatic!” Asahi yelped.
