The Dog Within ||SemiShira||

Chapter 1

~Shirabu's POV~

"Hey, Shirabu!", Semi called out. 

I quickly turned around, swinging my one strap backpack towards the sound of the excited voice.

"Ah, hey Semi. Did you just get out of class?", I asked, a smirk appearing on my face. Semi, finally caught up to me, chuckled while nodding.

"What about you?". I nodded also.

"When are you going to use both your straps instead of two," Semi started. "What, are you trying to be some cool hip hap wannabe?", Semi smirked.

I chuckled. "Oh yea, toootally", stretching the o out. "At least I am somewhat cool unlike you", I replied.

"Mhm, keep telling yourself that. Anyways, the whole team was thinking that after practice today, we could all go out for chicken and beer", Semi announced.

I thought about it. "What time is practice again today?", I asked, both of us walking around aimlessly.

"It's at 7:30PM and we leave around 8:30 to 9:00 PM and it's the start of the weekend tomorrow so we have no classes and might not have practice tomorrow either".

"Fine. But I get to leave early", I said. Semi looked confused to why I had asked that, since he's basically my closest and probably my only true friend, besides the team I guess, I tell him everything and really only socialize with him the most.

Semi shrugged it off and continued rambling on to something about how the teacher treats everything unfair and all that.

~Time Skip~

"One more before we leave?", I asked Ushijima. He nodded, sweat dripping onto the ground from a bunch of first and second year college students. 

I set the ball one last time, hearing a big bang from the sound of the volleyball slamming against the hard wood floor.

I swiped the sweat from my forehead and walked over by Semi, grabbing my water bottle. Semi grew excited and even grabbed onto my wrist, dragging me to the locker room to quickly change and leave. 

Semi was like the Flash; one minute he was getting ready to take a small shower while silently singing and the next he was at the front of the locker room all ready and waiting for me.

I blushed, replaying the moment when Semi was singing with his husky, well-pitched voice. Once I was finished with my fast shower, I quickly threw my casual clothes on and headed out with Semi.

As we continue to walk on the sidewalk, with the night sky showered with bright stars in our faces, we called out different constellations. 

We both knew how much we loved the stars and how much we cherished each and every wish we have made throughout our lives depending on just a little shooting star. It may seem crazy and untrue but once in a while, I like to believe in what I hope for and stick to it.

One night, we both talked about how many wishes we had made and he listed so many yet I listed only one.

We never told each other our wishes (since they say if you tell, it won't come true), but I have only made one within my life. Hard to believe? I know.

It's true though.

"Hey, Shirabu?", a soothing voice knocked me out of the memory. I whipped my head towards Semi, giving my attention.

"Look at the stars", Semi finishing off with a smile.

I look above, admiring the stars even more. "They are beautiful", I say with a passionate smile. I looked over at Semi, still smiling.
