DISCLAIMER! This takes place after the Fairy Tail book, which I am still working on, but I need to get these thoughts out of me so I can focus. This is also in a universe where Yachi doesnt become the team manager, Alya does, so shhhhh. Also, since I'm not fluent nor do I understand it, there will be no senpai, san, kun, shit like that, just btw

"Alya! Get down here and eat your breakfast before it gets cold!" My mom yelled from downstairs. I ran downstairs, jumping from the 3rd step as always, and quickly sat down at the table, excited for the day. I was going to go to school, then binge Haikyu!! for the 12th time. I love that show so much. The ships are just perfect. It makes me want to play volleyball, and I even get sad at some parts.

I rushed off to school, but was quickly met with a dilemma. I fainted before I could even make it halfway to my bus stop.

I woke up on the couch, my mom sitting on the floor, putting a new towel on my forehead. "What happened?" I asked, sitting up. "You fainted on your way to the bus stop. Gladly though, I was catching up to you, and caught you before you fell to the floor." I heard someone say. I look behind me, and Jack is there. "Thanks bro." I said, side hugging him slightly.

"So bro, I'm excused today because I am "sick", but you are legit sick, so what should we do?" Jack says, sitting next to me on the couch. "I want to watch Haikyu!!, but I'm probably going to fall asleep, so that's out of the option." I said, putting my head on his shoulder. "Hey, we should watch that. I'll make sure not to fall asleep, because that Fairy Tail adventure was too much for me. Plus, dont you think like, 9/10 of the guys there are hot?" Jack said, making a point. I nodded as he turned on the first episode. My mom went to work a few minutes later, leaving us alone to binge.

I felt a little sleep, so I layed down, putting my legs on Jack's lap. I tried my best to stay awake though, but it seemed as though the sickness took over.

I woke up in a bed, which I thought was weird at first. I sat up and realized that it wasnt my room, so it immediately made aay more sense. Jack wasnt here though, so he must've not fallen asleep.

I was frozen as memories flashed in my head of all the things I encountered. I remembered things that apparently happened. Is this for real? This is new. Hmm. I decided to play it off, and act like I knew people so that I wouldnt seem off. I checked my phone which was beside me and saw that it was 11:07 pm.

I got a new text message and decided to check it out. It was from an unknown number. How did they get my number? Who is it? I must find out.

Unknown: Hey, are you in a club yet?

Me: Um, no, not yet. Why?

Me: And who is this and how did you get my number?

Unknown: Oh, I guess we havent met yet. I'm Hinata Shoyou from the Men's Volleyball Club! I asked a lot of people for numbers of people who didnt have a club, and I got this one. Idek who you are...

I sighed at the message. So this is how its going to be, huh? My fingers hovered over the keyboard as I though of what to say.

Me: Oh, you're that orange haired #10, right? That's cool, my name is Alya Heart. Nice to meet ya

Unknown: right back at you!

He didnt respond after that, so I called it a night, but I guess people had different plans. I got another text, but from a different number.

Unknown: Hi, you're Alya Heart, correct? My name is Shimizu Kiyoko. I'm the team manager for the men's volleyball club

Unknown: and since you dont have a club, I was wondering if you'd like to be the new manager?

Me: I'd love to! Thanks for the offer! When do I start?

Unknown: is tomorrow okay with you?

Me: ofc

Unknown: meet me at the guy's gymnasium after school. You can meet the team then

Me: thanks! See ya tmr

Unknown: see ya

I changed their names and turned off my phone. This was going to be exciting.

(The next morning)

I quickly ran off to the school, I had luckily remembered my schedule from those memories yesterday. Thank God for those.

(Time skip)

I ran to the gym as fast as I could. I was so excited to meet the guys. I wonder how they are in person...

"Kiyoko!" I said, catching up to her. "Oh, hi. You must be Alya." She said, tucking a piece of hair behind her ear. I nodded as I caught up. "I'm really excited to meet the team. Thank you so much for letting me do this." I said, changing my shoes at the door. We walked in, the boys were practicing.

We waited at the wall until Daichi called for a break. "Hey Shimizu!" He said, walking over. "Hey Sawamura. This is the girl I told you about." She said, pushing me forward slightly. "I'm Alya Heart. Nice to meet you." I said, bowing. It definitely wasnt something I was used to. "Sawamura Diachi. I'm the captain of the men's volleyball team." He said, bowing back. I smiled as he called everyone up to us.

We stood in front of the team, and I started to get nervous. I know how Yachi feels. I'm so short compared to them. "Uhm, hi! My name is Alya Heart, and I'm going to be your new team manager. It's nice to finally meet you guys." I said, waving. "Go ahead and introduce yourselves, but please, one by one, I dont have 30 ears." I said. They laughed a bit as they went in a row saying their names. You know them, dont make me say it-

After introductions, practice was over. "Hey Alya, we have this training camp that we are going to in a couple days. Are you going to be able to go?" Daichi asked. I mentally screamed as I remembered who would be there. I quickly nodded. "For sure, I'll be going. And sorry for the inconvenience, introductions toon up all of practice." I apologized. "Dont worry about it. And make sure to get here bright and early on saturday morning. Around 5:00 am would be great." He said, walking off. I nodded as I helped clean up.

After we finished cleaning up, I started to walk home. "Wait Alya!" I heard someone yell. I turned around and saw Hinata catching up. Kageyama, Tsukki, and Yams were with him as well. "So, do you know anything about volleyball, or are you just in it for the guys?" Tsukki said bluntly. "Ehh, I'm mostly in it because you guys are just awesome. I do know a lot about volleyball though, I guess I'm okay at it, but I'm not too well. I would make a great Libero. But yes, sorry to say, I am partially in it for the hot guys." I said sighing and shrugging if off.

"Wow, I didnt expect you to be so honest." Kageyama said. "Well, I'm no liar, but I do really like you guys. You are all really great players and I think that I could get somewhat better just by watching your techniques." I said. "And I hope to get taller too." J sighed, remembering how short I was. I'm only an inch taller than Yachi...4'11".

"So if you dont mind me asking, why is your hair purple? Did you dye it?" Yamaguchi asked. I shook my head. "Genetic defect. I was born with this color hair. It's weird and not believable in the slightest, but it is true. And I havent died it another color because I think its cool." I said, explaining my hair.

We walked back to our houses, me ending up having to turn from the rest of the group. I sighed as I thought about the next few months.
