The promises you made me ||asanoya||

Slipping

It happened on Monday.

the familiar squeak of shoes on the gym floor for after school volleyball practice was nothing out of the ordinary, really it didn't seem like anything was wrong. because there wasn't anything wrong.

not at first anyways.

They'd just finished a small three on three match, when Asahi noticed that Noya was panting a little more than he should for how little exercise he done compared to his usual amount.

"Noya? are you okay..?"

Noya stood up from having his hands on his knees, looking over at Asahi with half-lidded eyes "yeah, i'm just, just really thirsty.. could you hand me that water?" Noya asked, extending his arm out

Asahi nodded and bended down. picking up the water bottle and passing it to Noya who took it greedily, gulping it down quickly. Asahi stood in shock as he witnessed Noya drink what he assumed to be the entire bottle.

Noya pulled his mouth away from the bottle panting slightly.

Now Daichi, Tanaka, and Sugawara were also giving the libero concerned looks.

"Noya, make sure you keep drinking water throughout the day, you seem a little dehydrated?" Daichi said it with an uneasy tone of voice, giving away the fact that he wasn't entirely sure he was correct in his assumption.

Nishinoya only nodded a response,but daichi didn't question it further.

All of the team returned to the court, except for noya who was told to sit down for this match and remain hydrated and cool as to not inflict any health issues.

if only it was that simple.

the score was 22-19, the team Asahi was on wasn't doing as well as in the previous match because now they didn't have their leibro. just as everyone was getting back into position to receive, the brief moment of quiet before continuing the heated game, on the side of the court the table set up with water bottles had fallen over with a loud crash, and Nishinoya was a heap on the floor.

asahi quickly ran over to his side, followed closely by sugawara and the rest of the team.

crouching dow next to him, asahi was in full on panic mode. he was freaking out. "n-noya!! what happened??! are, are you okay, what..."

noya, his voice horse replied quietly "I was thirsty, so, so I went to get a water bottle. but then, I got all dizzy and I felt sick, and, and then I fell..."

"noya, is there something you haven't told us...? you've seemed, different lately and I thought maybe it was just a sickness at first, but after today..." daichi was gazing down at noya with aworried look I his eyes.

what daichi said made asahi think back to what hes been asking the past week or so, he'd also wondered if Nishinoya was hiding something.

"please, noya, you can tell us." daichi tried to get a response from the small leibro, but to no avail.

it was silent,until tanakas voice rang out quietly, but loud enough to hear. "yuu, im sorry buti cant keep covering for you. not after what happened just now." he took in a shaky breath, and everyone felt their stomachs drop at the same time, because tanaka was crying. and tanaka almost never, never,cried.

"yuu,i cant believe you could be this irrisposible! you know what could happen, and yet, and yet you still refused to let me take you to the hospital or help you." now tanaka looked at the group "Nishinoya has diabetes, and last time I dragged him to the hospital they told him to be careful, because they they didn't want him to fall into a diabetic coma."

and just like that everyone went into a mode of complete silence. it lasted around two minuites. two minuites of pure shock.

and then all hell broke lose.

the hospital was dialed almost immediately and ambulance on its way, and in Asahis panic, his hands were sweaty and his breathing quickened, his legs trembled when he went to stand up, but then a shaky hand reached up and grabbed his shirt, he turned around to face noya.

noya didn't say anything, but asahi sat back down anyways. He sat besides Noya, looking at him with worried eyes, but all Noya did was smile back.
"Hey, Asahi-san."
"Y-yeah?"
"Promise me, yeah?"
Asahi was startled by the Leibros words
"Promise you what...?"
Noya giggled (if you could call it that,) "promise me that, if I go into a stupid coma, you'll keep our promises, you'll visit me everyday? And, you'll be there for me when I wake up?"
Asahi felt a tear slide down his cheek. The person he was in love with looked so small and helpless in this state, his eyes half closed a small smile decorating his face, and Asahi couldn't do anything. He wanted so badly to hug him and kiss him and tell him he'll be fine, he won't go into a coma. But he can't.

In all the chaos, Asahi slipped his pinky finger around Noya's, just as Noya slipped into a diabetic coma.
