Cold - An Inuoka X reader Love story

7 - playing hard

Hoshimi POV

I hear the boys whisper to eachother.

"Shit she's getting pissed... get ready for an intense serve you've probably never seen before." Inuoka starts sweating from stress. He looks worried for her.

"What do you-" lev starts but is interrupted by Shibayama.

"Last time this happened was when we were 9, but she's obviously stronger and a little bigger now. It's going to be even worse than last time since it was so long ago... wonder what set her off, do you think..."

"I don't know," Inuoka responds "I guess we'll have to talk to her after school"

They get ready, both Shibayama and Inuoka look really stressed almost. As if they know they won't be able to receive it. But they're both on the volleyball team right? Sure y/n was a top server in Junior high but these guys are boys on the volleyball team. Surely they can receive it easily right?

Y/n (I call her by that because she insisted) serves the ball and I watch it in shock. How the hell did a small girl like her manage to do that? She was only like 2 inches shorter than me, but for a volleyball player she was considered an ant. Me and Amai eye eachother and watch her in awe. All the other courts stop and watch her walk back to the end line

"What the hell was that?"

"Holy shit... did a girl really do that?"

"I thought those boys were on the volleyball team, how could they not receive it?"

"It looked pretty powerful and fast so I don't think they couldve received it"

"Woah it left a mark"

I see Y/n getting pissed. She stops, before shaking her head at herself then tossing the ball up again for another serve. This ones harder and faster. It hits the floor again. People stop playing and keep watching. After her third serve, the coach yells at everyone to continue playing their own games. He walks over to her and whispers something in her ear. She nods, but it clearly pissed off even more now. She throws the ball at me and mumble something while walking past me to talk my receiving position on the court.

"Serve the ball" I start sweating, I can't serve. I just learned how to overhand serve and I still suck at it. I look over to the boys and a sigh of relief waves over them.

Y/n POV

I see everyone watch me serve and I get even more pissed off. I didn't want attention. I realized my emotions were talking control of my playing but I couldn't control it. After my third serve the coach yelled at everyone to keep playing, the walked over to my and put his face close to my ear.

"Your a great server, however I don't need any show-offs in my class. You either stop serving like that or let someone else serve but you can't show off. Besides, this isn't supposed to be super competitive, this is supposed to be friendly competition. Do you understand, Bokuto?"

"Yessir" I growl at him. I throw the ball to Hoshimi and whisper to her

"Serve the ball" I was pissed, but I knew it was for the better, especially since I knew my emotions would take over too much while I served.

She served it and it made it over, but Inuoka received it. Shibayama went to the net and passed it up to where Lev was. Lev spiked it down, but unfortunately for him I read it perfectly. I dived for the spot he hit it. Amai ran up to hit and passed it straight up. It wasn't the best set, but it was decent considering she's never played until like 20 minutes ago. Hoshimi called my name, signaling that she was waiting for me to spike it. I ran up to it and spiked it hard into the ground again. It shot right threw Lev's weak block. It didn't get received, but shibayama happened to be right there so it grazed his forearms.
