I yawned and stretched, tying my hair up in a loose bun. Yuki was already ready once I stepped out into the living room. "Oh, you're all set."

"Yes!" Yuki responded excitedly, holding onto her bag.

I grabbed the keys to the car and shuffled my way to the front door. "Can we make a stop and get coffee?" I slipped on my slides and waited for her.

"Yeah.. But I don't know why you wanted to drive. Taking the train is faster," she replied, sitting down to put on her shoes. She got up and dusted off her dress.

"Because I miss driving and I'm not joining the dinner? So, I'm going to nap in the car," I casually said as I opened the door. "Plus driving is more fun, you're free to do whatever you want without strangers bothering you."

"Nice cat socks." 

I turned my head towards the voice and frowned. "I thought this would be my weekend off from you."

"Aw... Koko-chan, you don't mean that," Bokuto cried, pulling me in a big hug. I groaned and put my hands on his shoulders as he lifted me off the ground. "I haven't seen you since... You know," he winked at me. I smacked his cheek, annoyed.

Yuki gasped and exclaimed, "Bokuto senpai! You're here already!"

"Bokuto senpai...?" Akaashi questioned as he gave Bokuto a side glance.

Bokuto set me down, unfazed by my smack, and went to give Yuki a big hug. "Are you ready to go?" 

"What? Ready to go where?" I inquired, putting a hand on my hip. I wiggled my toes, looking down at my sushi socks.

"Didn't anyone tell you?" Akaashi asked.

Yuki laughed nervously as she scratched the back of her head. "I invited them so you wouldn't be lonely while I was with Tsukki..."

I narrowed my eyes then gave Kuroo the keys. "Start the car." I wasn't going to fight anyone this early in the day.

Bokuto gasped and then started to run off. "I CALL SHOTGUN!"

"You don't even know where the car is!" I shouted after him. He stopped and pouted back at me. I told Kuroo where the car was parked and I went back inside to gather an outfit to wear for today. I put everything in a bag and locked up the apartment before joining everyone. I got into the driver's seat and buckled up. I looked around to see where everyone was sitting and yawned again. "Ready?"

"Can I pick the music?" Bokuto asked, leaning between the two front seats. "I promise, it's good."

"Uh... Knock yourself out," I handed him the aux cord. "Now buckle up or I'll kick your ass out."

"Yes babbyyyy," he replied and sat back. I took note of Akaashi giving him another side glance. Kuroo silently looked back at Bokuto too when he said that.

"Geez, you guys are being weird today," I said with a sigh and started our drive. I took a mental note of their weird silent glances.

Four hours in, everyone was asleep besides Akaashi and Kenma which I was thankful for because one more second of Bokuto's nonsense I was going to stop the car during traffic. He, along with Kuroo, started making Tik Toks to which they dragged the rest of us in.
