Love and Lies ~ TsukkiYama

Chapter 6

TW: Eating Disorders, angst, cursing, ect.

It was the final set against Aoba Johsai, and both teams were at set point. This point would decide the winner of the match. Everyone was determined to win, and have their hard work and perseverance pay off.

Oikawa did one of his killer serves, luckily Noya managed to keep it from hitting the floor. He passes it to the setter.

Kageyama tossed the ball to Hinata, who jumped and spiked it over the net. The blockers tried to stop it, but it was too late. The ball fell down and hit the floor with a satisfying thud.

"WHOOOO" Tanaka roared, ripping off his shirt and whirling it around while yelling in the faces of his team-mates. Everyone was ecstatic as they shook hands with the opposing team. Takeda suggested going to a restaurant to celebrate their win. This made Tsukishima anxious. All the times he ate, it was with a few people, not the whole team.

"I...I need to go now, my mother wanted me home early." He lied, aching to get out of this.

"Don't go. This is a team celebration, and you're part of our team. You can tell your mom that you'll be home late, please Tsukishima." Suga pleaded, wrapping his arm around Tsukishima's neck and grinning. The rest of the team stared at him, hoping he'll come along.

Well, Hinata and Kageyama were in the middle of an intense pushing competition, Noya and Tanaka were going after Kiyoko, while Ennoshita was trying to stop them and Asahi was having an existential crisis meanwhile Yachi tried to comfort him but ended up crying with him. So it's only really Daichi, Suga and Yamaguchi staring at him.

Tsukishima knew that he can't go against them, so he defeatedly sighs and agrees to come. Takeda gets his car, and orders a Taxi for the people that couldn't fit in. The ride to the restaurant is noisy for the blonde, he unluckily ended up with Tanaka, Noya, Hinata and Kageyama. The noisiest people on the team. Kageyama was usually not that loud, but when Hinata and he fight, he gets very loud.

Tanaka and Noya were just screaming out the windows at people and other cars, while Hinata and Kageyama were hurling insults at each other and yelling at the same time. The Taxi driver was scared during the ride, nearly as bad as Asahi when he panicked.

Tsukishima leaned against the window and stared outside, the cold glass of the window made him shiver when he rested his head against it. The sun was starting to set, making the leaves on the trees seem orange. The sky was fading, dark blue to orange, to yellow. It was a beautiful sight. It seemed calm, tranquil.

The Taxi parked and the noisy children all piled outside, in awe of the restaurant. Tanaka, Noya, and Hinata were screaming things about free meat loudly, dancing at the same time. Takeda's car pulled up soon after, with the others in there.

The staff at the restaurant didn't look pleased to see the team there, because the last time they were there, Noya ended up breaking 3 plates, Kageyama got lost trying to find the bathroom, and accidentally walked into the female's bathroom (He ran out immediately as soon as he realised) Asahi ended up scaring multiple children, driving them to tears, and Hinata bumped into a waiter carrying meals to a table, making him drop everything.

Suga got drunk for like, the 3rd time that week and harassed a waiter for taking too long to give him his food, and Kiyoko ended up apologising to the flustered waiter for him.

Takeda and Ukai had to fork out for all the damage costs and food waste which was quite expensive, so they couldn't rent a bus for a while and the team had to walk to places regularly.

The waiter got them all a table and handed out the menus. Daichi made everyone on the team listen to him for a moment.

"Listen, guys, if you break a single plate, walk into the wrong bathroom, or knock people over in this restaurant again. We will be banned, and have to pay again. So be on your BEST behaviour. Got it?"
