Haikyuu! Striking Thoughts

Waiting

🚩

Months before Karasuno was renewed, the last time Asahi saw the guardian deity was when they fought in the hallways and Noya knocked over a vase in front of their toupee clad VP resulting for him to get suspended. He on the other hand, took an entire month off. He had literally no plan of coming back at all, a wimp like Nishinoya said he is. The ace have no clue then of whatever Noya is doing from that point on. The moment they reunited, the team, them, that was the only ever time he got to see him again. Same as ever, loud as ever. Though he couldn't find it in himself to make amends for real. At the very least they're okay now. They are except for Nishinoya's arms. At first he thought he was the only one who could notice it, new and fresh ones almost every single day but Tanaka stepped up and told him he can see them too. "Man up, Azumane. You've got to do something. Talk to him, anything." That's what he was advised to do. Man up. Noya's skin is marked by a severe amount of dark, dark bruises; the more Asahi think of them, the more he wanted to ask Yuu if he seems alright having them. "Block follow," is all the little devil answered him. "Do you feel bad? It looks really bad. Can I... treat it? It's okay if you don't want to, we're still not fin—" he got cut off. Nishinoya stared up at him, his eyes shining in relief. With a soft smile and even softer voice, he spoke. "Do you know how long I've been waiting for you to ask?."
