"do you not enjoy being in the volleyball club, (first name)-chan?" bokuto-san suddenly said as you were sitting down on one of the benches.

"oh, no no! all of you are really nice, and are easy to get along. im just spacing out. i'm sorry." you said as you immediately stood up.

"well that's good, you should loosen up a bit, its not nice to always be tensed." he said out loudly. "looks like akaashi's class and your class are doing the cafe together. i'll make sure to swing by!" he followed as he went back to practice.

you watched them all play all so cheerfully, "one more toss, akaashi!" you heard bokuto-san say. you watched akaashi toss the ball precisely towards bokuto-san. it almost looked calculated.

"that's so cool." you mouthed.

"your tosses are the best, akaashi!" bokuto-san yelled and gave the setter a pat in the back.

you couldn't help but stick your gaze towards akaashi. seeing him earlier felt like you've known him for so long.

it didn't take much more time for akaashi to notice that you were staring at him.

"bokuto-san, do i have something on my face?" i asked him as i felt a bit anxious since (last name)-san kept staring.

"other than good looks, nothing."

i let out a heavy sigh. ever since our encounter earlier, everything felt a lot more weirder. i kept blurting out words even i'm surprised i'd say.

i looked around the first years playing  around with the ball, "hey don't mess around too much, you might hit someone." i told them.

"yes, akaashi-senpai" they mouthed. i could still hear the loud thumping of the ball hitting the walls.

"hey hey, you also look like you're spacing out," bokuto-san mentioned.

"i always look like this, bokuto-san." i told him.

"well if there's anything bothering you, we can talk about it." he said while grinning as he walked towards yukie-san.

the boys kept practicing until dawn completely set.

"that's enough. time to clean up!" the coach said.

"just one more spike, i'll hit that one real good!" i heard one of the first years said.

yukie, kaori and (first name) were already picking up the balls we used from the other side of the court, "that's enough." i told the boys, but they were already playing.

i watched them play as he hit the ball too hard, "(first name)-senpai, watch out!" one of the boys yelled out after hitting the ball,

she stood there frozen while holding a volleyball by her hands, eyes shut, and obviously afraid to get hit.

i suddenly felt my feet move on its own , ah what am i even doing.

"(first name)-senpai, watch out!"  a boy yelled out as you saw a ball heading straight towards you.

you closed your eyes as you felt stuck to the ground, tightly squeezing the volleyball you've picked up.

'this is going to hurt so bad.' you thought to yourself as your eyes were still shut.

it took a while. the ball should've hit you by now. but rather than getting hit you heard a loud thud.

"we're so sorry, (first name)-senpai!" the first years ran towards you. you slowly opened your eyes to see akaashi near you. apparently, he intervened with the ball.

"are you okay, (last name)-san?" he said as looked you in the eyes.

all flustered and red, "yes.. i'm sorry." you mouthed.

"it's my duty to protect you."
