"I think I'm already doing that, sorry, Bōeisa."
"Super unfair that you grow like a tree. So embarrassing."
Bokuto and Kuroo watched the two friends talk in English. They discussed what they interpreted, which wasn't much.
"I think she said something about him being a tree."
"I thought she called him a child."
"No, Bokuto, just-no.""I hope your dance competition goes well."
"Thanks, you better join us at Nationals this year. I have a feeling that everyone will want to watch you."
"Everyone will be too busy watching you. You're really good."
"You are too. Don't back down now."
"I won't."
Bōeisa hugged her friend before joining her team on their bus."Why did you two talk in English?" Bokuto asked, finally able to talk to Jun before he got on his own bus.
"She likes English and I know it, so it's good practice for both of us. Her mother can't speak Japanese, so she talks for her."
"She's a halfie like Lev, huh?" Kuroo joked, resting his arm on Jun's shoulder.
"I guess so, whatever you like to classify as a halfer."Bokuto grinned before giving Jun's back a hefty slap.
"You better make it to Nationals so I can beat you in a real game."
Jun still adored how easy it was to read Bokuto's lips. Much easier than some of his own teammates, that was for sure.
"I'll try my best."
"We're rooting for you, big guy," Kuroo smiled, "I think you'll fit right in with the top players."
Jun didn't facially respond how Kuroo expected. Instead, he looked more saddened than inspired."Why do you say that? Why do people say that Japan will want to see me play?"
Bokuto and Kuroo looked at each other for a moment as Jun asked his question with a disappointed tone.
"Why wouldn't they?" Bokuto chuckled, "you're really impressive despite the impression that you wouldn't be. I honestly thought that your team would erupt in chaos the second you stepped out there, but it seemed more under control with everyone always making sure they communicate correctly with you."
Jun was surprised by the way Bokuto spoke about him, especially after the conversations they had previously had.
"You're going to be a top-notch player one day," Kuroo added on, "we both see it, I know your friends see it, so I hope that you'll also see it.""See my...see my talents. See them...bloom."
"Yeah, Uh sure, you could put it that way."
"He told me that. He said I was a genius. He really thinks I'm that impressive?"
"Who are we talking about? I get lost quickly, Jun," Bokuto grumbled.
"Oikawa. The pompous Seijoh setter."
Kuroo laughed as he ruffled up Jun's hair which was once again growing long. "Sounds like you've got yourself someone who really appreciates you."
