chapter nineteen

"I...I'd like to ask you all a question...may I?" the tall blonde said, rubbing the nape of his neck as he looked at the four.

"Sure," the owls and cat trio said in unison. The blonde nodded and thanked the three.

T: "Your teams are sometimes considered powerhouse schools right?"
K: "Well, yeah."
T: "Even if you were able to make it to nationals, actually winning there would be difficult, right?"
B: "But it's not impossible!"
A: "Now, now, let's hear him out. This is just a what-if."

Y/n listened to the three have their conversation eventually getting lost at what they were talking about and finding herself staring into space. As the conversation between the four progressed, she noticed how Bokuto spoke with a burning passionate gleam in his eyes and chuckled. After a little while, the four got to practicing.

Y/n sat on a bench, watching the four practice and eventually felt her eyelids close and drift off to sleep. The four practiced for a bit more then finally took a break and noticed the sleeping brunette.

The brunette fluttered her eyes open and saw the gym getting farther away. She then realised that she was getting a piggyback from Akaashi.

"K-keiji?"
Akaashi chuckled as he felt y/n adjust herself.

"A-aren't I heavy?" Y/n asked, worried that her body weight could tire Akaashi out.

"No, you're as light as a feather," Akaashi reassured y/n. Y/n nodded with a smile and hugged Akaashi tighter into the piggyback. The two stayed in that position until the they reached the rooms.

The two parted ways and went to take their shower, stopping at their rooms to collect their things along the way.

The brunette had a relaxing shower, reflecting on the day and thinking about life. As she came out of the bath room, drying her still dripping hair, she saw two familiar male figures at the vending machine, talking.

"No one informed me of a gathering!"

Kuroo chuckled. "We just happened to finish our bath at the same time," the bed haired freak said, smiling at the brunette.

The three stood by the vending machine, conversing with one another. However, despite all the talking and warm smiles passed to one another, y/n could not help but sense a different vibe coming from the two boys. It was almost as if they were competing as rivals. Friendly rivals. Y/n decided to brush this off since she thought she was overthinking it.

"I should probably go back. My team's waiting for me. Have a goodnight, you two," Kuroo said, walking back to his room and waving to the couple. Y/n smiled while Akaashi nodded then the two looked at each other.

"What did y'all talk about?" The brunette asked, curious about what the relationship between them was like.

"Nothing interesting. Maybe one day you'll find out," Akaashi answered chuckling. Y/n tilted her head in confusion but decided to ignore it, thinking it was probably just guy's talk.

The couple held hands and walked to their rooms.

"After training camp, do you want to go on a date?" Akaashi asked, blushing slightly as he looked at the ground and back to y/n. The brunette brightened up and nodded energetically with a giant smile which made Akaashi chuckle.

They parted ways once they had reached the managers' room.

"Is it possible if I could perhaps get your number?" A boy in line asked as he passed his plate to y/n.

"I don't think that's possible at all..." y/n said, feeling uneasy as she scooped the rice into the boy's plate and passed it to him.

"I should probably try harder then. I'll make you give me my number," the boy confidentally said with a smirk and walked over to collect his other food.

A lot of boys in the training camp had been asking y/n for her number constantly. Despite giving all of them straight forward rejections, some of them still did not seem give up. She began to feel uncomfortable and uneasy whenever she was required to gather in a large room filled with the people in the camp or when she had to do a task that involved going somewhere alone around the training center where there were many guys roaming around.

Y/n let out a sigh as she started to clean up the area. It was getting tiring trying to run away from all the boys.

"Someone's in an awful mood," a voice, so familar, commented. Y/n looked up to see the captain and setter of Nekoma. Kuroo gave a chuckle and took the towel from y/n and proceeded to wipe the table. "I could talk to them if you want. Maybe even make Kenma scare them away," Kuroo said, smiling warmly at y/n.

The brunette took in a deep breath to got rid of the tension she had been feeling and finally felt a smile creep up on her face.

"It's alright. I can defend myself. Besides, Kenma is too scary. He'd make them shit themselves," y/n said giggling at the slightly furrowed eyebrows on the pudding man's face.

"I'm not scary..." Kenma said.
"Are to," Kuroo digressed.
"Am not"
"Are too"
"Some things just never change, huh?" Y/n giggled at the two cats who were bickering. As she watched the two cats who were arguing, she was immediately reminded of how close the three of them were as kids and how they all had so much fun whenever they played together. Whenever she felt upset or anything, Kuroo would always be there to talk to her and Kenma would always sit there and listen to her. Y/n could never imagine what she would do if the three of them were to part ways.

"Thank you
For everything.
For listening to my bullshit,
For putting up with me
And for making me happy
Thank you."

The two finally stopped and look at the brunette who had a big smile. A smile so warm, it could melt even the coldest person on earth. The two smiled back as they looked at their dearest childhood friend.
