"kiyoko~!! you look more radiant than ever!!" tanaka shouted from beside me. my eyes were still stunned from the girl to even consider kiyoko's unbreathable existence. who was she? and why did it make me feel so..off? flashes of her brown sugar iris' swirled in my brain. a loud smack had me shaking myself out of my thoughts. i turned to my right to see tanaka grinning to the ceiling in a floaty motion. "what happened!" i shouted looking everywhere for our beloved third year manager. "kiyoko smacked me, it was truly blissful!" tanaka coed melting to the ground. i felt my body crumble, how could i miss her! how could i miss my chance of being noticed!
"everyday with this." i overheard tsukishima grunt as he walked passed us. tanaka and i jumped to our feet, our fingers pointing straight at the overly grown first year. "you better watch what you say!" tanaka shouted. "yeah! you respect us upperclassman! give me seventy eight push ups! no thirty nine wall sits!" i ordered feeling myself fume with energy and slight annoyance. "as i'd ever do those," the tall blonde male smirked. mine and tanaka's faces cracked in place. before we could charge tsukishima we felt a tug backwards. "act your age.." daichi was growling at us. i saw how tanaka had snapped out of his trance like i had as we both nodded our heads, fear of our captain dripping off of us. he let us go as coach called us for a quick meeting.
"alright! the spring tournament is just a few months away, and the week long training camp is a few weeks from now." he smirked smacking the board next to him. i felt a wave of energy rush through my bones. i'm ready to take down all the other teams. i know i've improved and so has my team. we won't back down, we won't lose again! "so let's take this time to show them that these crows aren't so flightless anymore!" coach ukai shouted triumphantly. "yeah!!" we all shouted in unison, hinata and i leaping into the air. with the sound of a whistle we rushed off back to our practices.
another whistle blow an hour later signally morning practice was over with. "hey kageyama did airie mention was year she was in?" i overheard hinata speaking. airie? "no." kageyama simply replies leaving hinata with a slumped face. "i think she might be a second year." suga walker over to the two. second year! my ears perked up to that, a girl named airie in my year? "is she good looking?" tanaka wiggles his brow at the two first years, earning an elbow from suga. i shook my head chucking ready to walk away when i heard hinata slap his hands together. "yes she is! she's like stunning pretty but not obvious! from first glance she seems plain but when you look into her eyes you just see brown sugar!!" his words made my hazel orbs widen to the size of volleyballs. flashes of that girl from earlier ran through my mind.
"you sound creepy!! stop!" kageyama shouted with pink cheeks. "ooo~ you think she's good looking too kageyama!" tanaka cooed again, getting elbowed again. "stop hitting me suga! it's gonna bruise!" tanaka whined. "then stop being a pervert!" suga gave him his warning smile. tanaka snapped up straight, "pervert!!! i'm not a pervert!!" he shouted causing daichi to throw a free volleyball at his head. the said captain ordered us to finish cleaning up and head to our first classes before we were late.
"man why does suga always hit me." tanaka pouted beside me as we walked to our class. "probably because you are a-" i spoke with a cheeky grin before he cut me off. "not you too noya!!" he whined harder. i started to laugh and not to long after tanaka chuckled along with me. we kept the conversation flowing as we spoke about school work and the upcoming tournament. my eyes glanced at our class room number and then down to the door, my heart exploding like a grenade was thrown into it.
stars pooled into my eyes as i thanked the gods above. "kiyoko!! you're here!!" i ran ahead with my arms out stretched. the said girl turned to see me in time and took a step back letting me hit the floor. i wasn't upset though because she acknowledged me! from the floor i could feel streams of happy tears falling from my eyes. "Kiyok-" the sound of shoes walking away filled my ears not to long after. "ahh i love when she ignores me!" ryu twirled before helping me up. we both jumped into the class, thankfully we weren't late. "hey someone's in that spot!" tanaka nudged my shoulder. i looked away from my tall friend and followed his gaze, my chest tightening and that off feeling coming back.
"nishinoya, tanaka take your seats." mrs. ono spat at us. with non stop glances at the mysterious girl i took my seat diagonal from hers. "alright since everyone's seated," mrs. ono spoke up. "would you please come to the front of class please." my pupils dilated slightly seeing the girl get out of her seat. "wow.." the words fell out of my mouth in a whisper as the girl turned to face the class. she was simply beautiful. i felt my face heating up just from staring at her. i could hear tanaka next to me asking if i was alright with a slight snicker.
"sorry for intruding in the middle of the year, please welcome me into your class and school." she smiled and my head nearly popped off, how can one smile make me feel like that? "my names airie chisake, but i would like everyone to call me airie." she bowed softly before returning to her seat. just being this close to me made me nervous for some reason. but the one thing i could think about was hinata's words..
and boy were you wrong hinata, stunning from afar..mind blowing up close.
