Hinata POV 

Kageyama never fails to surprise me. His brain only seems to function properly when he really decides to prioritize something.

I thought I had more time to gather myself and slowly build up the confidence to confess when we're walking back home. But now I've been put on the spot and I'm mentally arguing with myself on what to do. 

I make my way next to Kageyama and take a seat, hugging my legs and burying  my face in between them. 

After a long awkward silence I decide to speak up.

"Kageyama there's something I need to tell you ... "

I start picking at the grass in a feeble attempt to conceal my nervousness. My mind seeming to get hazy as if I'm forgetting the words that I want to say. I clutch my stomach as I start to feel uneasy and can sense how Kageyama is growing impatient with my silence. 

Right as I'm about let my mouth run and let all my thoughts out unfiltered Kageyama decides to speak up. 

"I know you want to talk about what's been going on between us," I quickly look in Kageyama's direction, he's blushing.

"Look I don't even know what's going on okay? Like I know why I acted the way I did when I went to your house ... but that was just my instincts overpowering my judgement. As for yesterday, I don't know I was just caught up in the moment. I had mistaken your acts of kindness and i just got really overwhelmed and acted without thinking .."

Kageyama has a really pained look on his face. It almost looks like regret.

Did I ... misinterpret this whole situation? 

"You don't have to worry over that stuff anymore. I know now to maintain my distance. We're only teammates and by me overstepping boundaries ... I just don't want to ruin our dynamic."

Kageyama finally faces me giving me the signal that he's said everything he wanted to. As for me, I don't know what to say anymore. I definitely can't confess now after hearing all of that.

I feel almost empty, all of my excitement and nervousness leaving me as I no longer want to express my feelings to Kageyama. I slowly look back at the missing patch of grass in front of me wondering what I should say now. 

"Oh, how did you know I wanted to talk about that? Sometimes you're too smart for your own good Kageyama-kun," I turn to Kageyama showing him a smile, "thank you for clearing it all up for me. Now I don't have anything to worry about."

I stand up and make my way to my gym bag and take out Kageyama's hoodie, I had forgotten to give it back yesterday during practice. I throw it on his lap and pick up my gym bag.

"I forgot to give you back the hoodie you let me borrow a while back, sorry about that," I say with an apologetic smile, "I should get going then, you cleared any doubts I probably had left and you shouldn't be practicing with your hands like that."

Kageyama looks lost at my sudden urgency to leave. As I make my way to where I tossed my bike Kageyama gathers his things together and we make our way out the park.

"Well I'll see you tomorrow. Let me know when you get home." I try to sound as cheerful as I always do. Who would have thought being heartbroken felt this way.

"Yeah, I might not show up to practice since I wouldn't be able to do anything which is gunna be annoying but what can I do at this point," Kageyama flashes me a small smile, his words really meaning he's sorry we won't be able to practice our quick attacks since he's rendered disabled.
