Kenma :
That is not fair.

Tsukishima :

Everything is fair in love and war.

Akaashi :
At least Bokuto-san and Hinata did not kiss someone else I'm front of us.

Tsukishima :

First of all, that was a low blow

Secondly, I at least told him that I like him. Unlike both of you.

Kenma :
It is different.

Tsukishima :

Please, elaborate.

Akaashi :
He is a third year who will be graduating in three weeks
Kenma :
Tokyo and Miyagi are quite far apart.

Tsukishima :

I believe Akaashi-san had plenty of time before that and Kenma can try now too.

Akaashi :
That does not matter.

Tsukishima :

Oh really?

Kenma :
Doesn't matter at all.

Tsukishima :

This feels weird

Kenma :
Having friends? Or
Akaashi :
Teasing? Or

Tsukishima :

Telling people with more than half a brain cell to do something.

Akaashi :
God Kei
Kenma :
For me is texting people who are not Tetsurou
Akaashi :
Aww

Tsukishima :

* snorts *

Kenma :
Shut up.
Akaashi :
Change the topic then
Kenma :
So practice matches next week?

Tsukishima :

I still don't understand why do we have to travel all the way to Tokyo while the weather in miyagi if so much better.

Kenma :
It is too cold there
Akaashi :
It's the country side, what else do you expect.
Kenma :
For it not to be cold.

Tsukishima :

You will get a personal sun so you don't have to worry.

Akaashi :
I agree
Kenma :
This is it. I am leaving. Bye.

Tsukishima :

Sayonara

Akaashi :
I guess I will take my leave too. Bye.

Tsukishima :

Bye.


Asahi POV
It is morning practice and Noya is already here warming up.
Since I don't know what to say to him I have decided that I am just going to ignore him.
Yes.
That seems about right.
Shit.
He is coming towards me.

Aaand he goes right past me.
Thank god.
Daichi told us to start practicing spikes.
All the spikers align on one side and those who need to practice receives on the other.
Suga and Kageyama are setting the balls for everyone with the help of Yachi-kun and Kiyoko.
Noya was obviously able to receive all spikes but a few of mine.

Nishinoya POV
I have no idea what Asahi and I are after last to last night.
For some reason the only thing that my mind can come up with to be able to cope to with situation, is, ignoring Jesus.
Like always I am that third person in the gym.
I have just started stretching when He comes into the gym.
I have to talk to Him.

There is no escaping that.
I start to go over to him and start practicing in my head what I'm going to tell him
Six feet.
Five feet.
Four fe-Oh there are my knee pads.
Daichi starts practice and hence delays the inevitable for just a little bit.

Asahi POV
It is lunch now and the time hath come.
I go down to the forth floor after a bit of coaxing by Daichi and Suga.
It seemed more like they wanted me to leave them alone.
He was talking to the other second years in the club. I went over to them and asked them if they could excuse Nishinoya for a while.

They practically shoved Noya at me.
" I know that I am very late, but would you be interested in going out on a date with me? "
" I would love to. "
We then nodded at each other and went our separate ways.
Why do we do this every time?
God help me.

Nishinoya POV

I go back to the rest of my friends and they are looking at me like I am the most interesting creature on the planet.
I give them a questioning look and then they proceed to look at me like I am the most stupid creature on the planet.
The heck?
" Soo.. Did he ask you out? "
" Yes. "

" Oh my gods! When is the date? " Tanaka asked.
" Oh! I don't know. He just asked me on a date, I said yes and we both left. "
" Both of you are such dumb asses. "
" Hey! That is rude. "
" It is what it is. " They chant simultaneously.
" Forget about that, our current mission is to hunt Tsukishima. "

Tanaka POV

Yuu is right.
We have another task at hand.
Investigating the life of our kouhai.
He comes late to practice because he has joined another club. He even hangs out with them apparently.
We personally bond over shit - talking with our enemies, or as Chiraka like to call them, our opponents.

Beyond this I have no idea about him.
Only recently has he started to take volleyball seriously and Asahi and I know the reason behind him coming late to practice, but cheating on the club, that too openly, is unacceptable.
Our sources, Yamaguchi and Yachi, told us that we can find them in 1-5.
" Let's go. "
I spot him.

" The rabbit is in the burrow. I repeat. The rabbit is in the burrow. "
" Shut up. "
I never thought I would be insulted by my boyfriend.
I trusted him and this is what he does?
Ennoshita gives me a quick kiss on the cheek.
It's okay now. We made up.

I smile at him and look inside the class to find that the others had already pulled him aside.
BETRAYAL.
I quickly run over to the group and put my hand around Kinnoshita and Noya's shoulders and out my most intimidating face on.
He is too tall for this to work on him.
Curse him for being so lanky.

" Cheating on Volleyball club, are we? "
" I do not follow. "
" Don't act smart, Tsukishima. We know that you know what we are talking  about. "
" I just attend swim club practices while prioritising Volleyball club. I have no idea how it can be considered ' cheating ' ? "
" Are you sure because you seem to be hanging out with them a lot lately. "

" Just because I have friends outside volleyball club does not mean that I am somehow unfaithful to the club. "
" Roasted! " Yuu interjects.
" Are you on my side or his? "
" Of course yours. Also Tsukishima, if we chatch you slacking off, you are gone for sure. "
" Yes sire. " He replies.
Before I can at something else, Chiraka drags us out.
