"Hey, Rei!" came a voice and I spun round from my locker - from which I was grabbing my gym bag - to see Rio and Mei walking over.

"Hi" I smiled

"We've apparently got a joint practice with the boys Volleyball club" Rio said "last time we played them it got really intense"

"How so?" I asked, slamming my locker closed as we started walking for the gymnasium.

"Cochi's really competitive" Mei giggled "something about their Captain makes her want to crush them"

I chuckled "Kuroo-san? He does seem kinda smug"

"You've met him?" Rio asked

"Briefly" I shrugged "I talked more to his friend, Kozume"

"Who?" Mei frowned

"He's in our English class?" I raised my eyebrows "sits behind me? blonde hair?"

"That kid that's always on his phone?" Mei asked

"Yeah" I nodded

"What did you talk about?" Rio asked, bemused by this fact apparently.

"The game he was playing" I said quietly, not really wanting them to know I was a gamer. There were bitches in my middle school who ripped the shit outta me for it....

"You game?" Mei asked curiously

"A little" I mumbled.

"That's cool" she grinned as we reached the girls locker room and I smiled slightly. Mei was one of the sweetest girls I'd ever met. Though I felt like an outsider - her and Rio were in my year but had been friends since childhood so I didn't get a lot of the jokes they told. However, they tried hard to include me which I appreciated. We changed quickly, being the last ones there. When we walked into the gymnasium the other girls were doing their stretches.

"You guys are here!" Cochi smiled "thought you were gonna let me lose against that smug bastard"

"We would never!" Rio laughed, holding her hand over her heart in mock hurt.

"Make sure you stretch well, we have to beat them" Cochi said, her eyes burning. I decided doing as I was told was probably the safest option. I pulled my knee pads on quickly - which Noya had thought it funny to draw cat faces on after hearing what school I was going to. I bandaged one of my fingers were the skin was so dry from playing it was close to cracking and got to my stretches. It was 10 minutes later the boys team showed up. I stood up, stretching my hands over my head, my back joints cracking as I did.

"Excuse me" Cochi excused herself

"Go scare him, Cochi-kun!" Honoka laughed and she grinned before walking over to shake Kuroo's hand. I watched Kenma go and sit by himself on the bleachers. I turned to my team who were laughing and talking themselves up for the match. So I walked over to where Kenma was tapping on his PSP.

"Kozume-kun?" I asked, he looked up.

"Hi" he said quietly

"What level are you on?" I asked, flopping down on the bleachers next to him.

"Ice Warrior" he answered

"Ooh, that's a good one - took me ages to figure out" I smiled

"Don't you just use the ice to make it through the cave?" he asked

"How did you get that so fast?" I laughed "I was on that level for days"

He looked at me curiously for a moment "why are you talking to me?"
