Sweaty Guys Illegal Thighs

Practice Match (Part 1)

*Beep beep! Beep beep!*

I propped myself on my elbow as I rubbed my face. As I became aware of my surroundings, I noticed I was on the couch under a cover. I dismissed the alarm and stretched my arms up over my head. I stood up and winced a little, "Ouch." I grabbed the crutches and made my way to the bathroom. Since I was already in my uniform, I decided to just do my hair and brush my teeth. I braided my hair and went to the kitchen to take my pain pills. My phone was at 26% and my portable charger was probably low on juice too. Just my luck. Trust people to do something the one time you really need it, and they don't deliver. Oh well...

"Morning," a quiet voice yawned. I turned to see Taru walking down the stairs, "Good morning." Taru's brown hair was all over the place! His eye look about the same as yesterday, but the swelling went down. "Otōto, did you comb your hair and brush your teeth yet," I asked messing up his hair even more. He looked up to me, "No, I slept in my uniform." I smiled as I gave him a banana, "Here eat this and then go fix yourself up for school. I ate a banana and made some toast for us to snack on." "Dad made our lunch," Taru said putting them in our school bags. "Its rice, veggies, and some beef," dad said walking into the kitchen.

I looked at dad and smiled, "Thanks dad. Um... can I go to morning practice today?" "Me too dad," Taru quickly added, "I wanna join the volleyball club at my school." Dad smiled at us, "Sure, but Taru. You have to comb your hair." "Oh! That's right, wait for me in the car," Taru called out running upstairs. Dad helped me put on my shoes, since I was using the crutches again, then, we waited for Taru in the car. He ran out with his hair styled like yesterday and hopped in the back seat of the car.

When I got to school, it was 6:50 a.m. I was at the gate of the school, "(f/n)-chan," a voice called out for me. I turned to see Daichi and Sugawara in their gym clothes, "Good morning Daichi-san, Sugawara-san," I said with a soft smile. "Are you ok? We heard everything from Tsukishima yesterday," Daichi said worried. I rested on the crutches, "No yeah, I'm fine. My brother too-" "You have a brother? And he was hurt too!?" Suga cut me off worried. I blinked in shock, "Y-yeah. He's younger, a first-year in junior high. We are both fine though, thanks to Tsukishima." They flinched at what I said, "Tsukishima helped you," Sugawara asked shocked. I nodded, "He didn't say that yesterday," Daichi said looking at Sugawara.

They walked me to the gym and set up a chair for me, "Here you go. Let us know if you need anything," Daichi said with a smile. "Thanks dad. I mean! Gomen gomen gomen," I panicked. Sugawara started to laugh, "That's fine. People say I'm more of a father than a friend," Daichi said rubbing the back of his head. We were the only ones in the gym, Daichi and Sugawara were setting up the gym for the rest of the guys.

I turned my attention to the door when I heard running and panting. "You guys shouldn't exhaust yourselves before practice," Suga said with his fists on hips. When the two walked in, a smile painted its way across my face, "Good morning Hinata! Kageyama!" "(l/n)!" Hinata yelled with a huge smile. Kageyama raise a hand, "Ous!" Daich walked up to them, "Ok guys, please help us set up for everyone."

Soon, more people walked in and came up to me. They asked how I was doing and if I was alright. I would say I'm fine and watch as they helped set up and spoke with each other. "Yo," "Hey," I turned to the door to see Tsukki and Yamaguchi entering the gym. I stared at Tsukki and panicked as he approached me. "Hey water-girl. How ya holding up," he asked with a soft glance. I couldn't look at him, "I don't think I'll need the crutches for much longer. Thanks again," I said smiling at him. He pushed up his glasses and looked up so I could see his face, "That's good. I'm going to go stretch." He turned and joined everyone at the other side of the court.
