He's an orphan... Orphan!Hinata ✔

Chapter 11

"WOAHHH IT'S TODAY!!! IT'S FINALLY TODAY WOAH I'M WAY TOO EXCITED!!" Noya yelled as he skipped steps. The team had gone out to jog, while two hot headed people, namely Kageyama and Shōyō, were testing each other's limits.

"Calm down!" Sugawara shouted as Noya immediately complied.

"Yes sir." Noya mumbled as he kept a straight face causing Tanaka to laugh.

"Hinata, stop running!! We're jogging! He- I SAID STOP IT OR ELSE YOU'LL GET LO- I didn't even get to finish my sentence and he's already lost..." Daichi said as he stopped causing the others to stop as well.

"I'll try to go look for him, you guys head back... he's probably not even familiar with this part of town anyway." Sugawara said as he waved at them.

"Sure, come on let's go! And no slacking!" Daichi shouted as they turned back.

"Where could he have run off to?"

"Where the hell am I?" Shōyō mumbled as he, for once, stopped running. He saw his surroundings and noticed that he had just turned a corner into a street from another, smaller one.

"Great... now I'm lost... I knew I shouldn't have accepted the challenge..." Shōyō sat on the side of the road with his back towards a fence. Rule number one, if you're lost, stay where you are so that people who are looking for you can you find you easier.

Shōyō brought his knees to his chest as he was startled by some noises not so far away. He was alert that someone was near him, but he wasn't sure if he should approach. They probably don't even know I'm here considering it's a noise from a game...

"Is that fun?" Shōyō approached the stranger with pudding coloured hair. The stranger, startled at the voice, almost got a heart attack as he turned and saw Shōyō standing there beside him. Scaredy-cat.

"I wouldn't say that... it's just a way of wasting time..." the stranger mumbled, slightly hesitant.

"Eh... EH! You play volleyball as well?! I'm Hinata Shōyō, first year!! I'm spiker! What about you?" Shōyō said excitedly as he took a spiker pose. He's lost so he's not from here, he's definitely not a libero... he's probably older as well... Nekoma definitely, the red uniform is unmistakeable...

"I'm Kozume... Kozume Kenma, second year, setter..." Kenma mumbled as he continued playing, Shōyō decided to sit beside him. His eyes are just like a cat... so observing and mysterious.

"Ah! You're my elder, I'm so sorry if I seemed dissrepectful!"

"It's fine... I don't care about that, especially in volleyball, on the court nothing like that matters." Kenma answered surprising Shōyō with his words.

"That's... really good..."

"How would you describe your team?! Mine is really awesome!! And strong too!! We're going to have a practise match soon! It's gonna be so cool!" Shōyō said, he said about the match on purpose to see Kenmas reaction. He glanced at him.

"That sounds nice..." Kenma said as he clicked away, Shōyō looked over Kenmas shoulder on the screen. So, he's smart and he gave away a good reaction, revealing nothing... he could've fooled me...

"How would you describe your team?"

"I think we're pretty strong..." Kenma said with a tone that sent chills down Shōyōs spine.

"Do you like volleyball?" Shōyō asked after a couple of seconds of silence as he continued watching.

"Not really... it's a waste of time... really."
