Hatsukoi (Tsukishima x Reader)

"You should have come to Shiratorizawa"

Part 2: Chapter 12 

"Nice receive!"

Your (e/c) eyes followed after the volleyball which was tossed to Tanaka instead of Hinata as the bald second year spike it across the net, scoring a point. You stood next to Kiyoko as you took down notes in your notebook for your own personal use. You glanced up to see Kageyama raised his hands letting out a shaky "whoo" as Tanaka high five the setter with everything he got.

You laughed at the blueberry setter who never fail to amuse you with his awkward social skills. You turned your focus back to the court as the match continued, your eyes following every player's movement closely and taking necessary notes down. The boys' volleyball team is currently having a practice match among one another. As the assistant coach, you were determined to note down every single flaws and perfections of your team.

After what happened the last time round, you were ready to up your game.

'There we go. This should give Hinata more chances in the air.' You thought to yourself with a nod of your head. Suddenly from the corner of your eyes, something caught your attention. You glanced up just in time to see Tsukishima doing a feint, getting pass Hinata's and Kageyama's block. Your (e/c) eyes sparkled with awe, never failing to be impressed by Tsukishima whenever he does something unexpected.

"It's funny how you keep falling for that." Tsukishima smiled smugly at the idiotic duo who were glowering at him. However, Tsukishima's eyes weren't focused on his fellow teammates in front of him. Instead, he was focusing on a certain (h/c)-haired female. For some unknown reasons, Tsukishima had this urge to impress you with his volleyball plays.

Well, he wasn't disappointed by the look on your face. Your (e/c) eyes were glimmering with awe as your face lit up, the sight causing Tsukishima's heart to race slightly faster. The middle blocker looked down to his chest in confusion, a frown on his face. Why was he having such feelings at seeing your face filled with awe? Tsukishima glanced up once more and was surprised when he made eye contact with you.

Awe shifted to confusion as you stared at Tsukishima who was glancing down at his chest, a frown on his face. Is he okay? You thought to yourself as you felt slightly worried for the blond. You're deep in thought that you didn't realized you had been staring at Tsukishima for quite a while until you saw the look of surprise on his face. Surprise filled you as well as the two of you held gazes, not caring what was going in the background.

However the whistle blew, its piercing sound breaking the bubble that you and Tsukishima were in. Both your eyes widen before a blush settled on Tsukishima's face as his brows furrowed in annoyance, turning his attention back to the game that was happening. Now was not the time for this. After all, Tsukishima is in the middle of a match. He can deal with this later.

You let out a disappointed sigh unknowingly before facing Kiyoko, about to discuss with her about something when the third year gives you a look that you can't decipher. You tilted your head to the side, a confused look on your face as you asked. "Kiyoko-senpai, are you alright? You have a weird look on your face."

Kiyoko shook her head with a smile as she replied. "I'm fine. I was just observing the way how you looked at Tsukishima-san with awe in your eyes when he did a feint."

At the mention of the beanpole, you began to ramble in excitement. "I just can't help it but be impressed whenever that string bean does something unexpected. I mean he is usually not putting in effort when it comes to volleyball, so he takes me by surprise whenever he does things unexpectedly..."

You went on and on, not realizing that everyone had stopped to stare at you. Kiyoko gently tapped you on the shoulder as she quietly said. "(name)-chan, you're being too loud. Everyone is staring at you."
