YOUR P.O.V

----------------------------------------------------Time skip to End of the Day----------------------------------------

The final bell rings signaling the end of the day.  I jump out of my seat and swiftly throw all of my belongings back inside my backpack. I rush out the door and take off down the hallway towards Gym B. My eyes shine as I reach the gym after taking a few wrong turns. I hear the squeak of volleyball shoes on the wooden floor and I can no longer wait. I heave open the door and stand up straight in the doorway making my presence known. I watch as the girls stop their practice to look at me. I give an award-winning smile and bow deeply while introducing myself.

"My name is (l/n) (f/n), but please call me (f/n)! I can't wait to play volleyball with all of you!" I practically shout as I stand up from my bow.

"Well then (f/n), let's see what you can do! You can get changed in the locker room over there," A third year, which I can only assume is the captain, says while pointing to a door at the end of the gym.

I nod my head violently and rush off to go get changed. I change as fast as humanly possible and slide out of the locker room onto the court excited to start playing volleyball again. I warm up my muscles that are just revving to go while the team takes a short break. As soon as I am done with my warmups, the team and I go straight into a three on three game, so I can show off my many skills. As we set up to get started I hear whispering coming from my other teammates. I turn my head slightly, so I can eavesdrop. 

"There is no way a girl of her height (which is 5ft by the way) can play anything other than libero. She's not going to be able to spike at her height." One of the girls says to the other in a low tone of voice. The other nods in agreement.

A sly smile is slid on my face as I know I will be proving them wrong soon. Yes, my receives are close to perfection, but my spikes are just as powerful.

The whistle is blown and all of my attention is on the server. The ball is sent to my right. I almost moved to get it, but I see a girl move to receive it.  She sends it to our setter as I run with great speed to the net. I jump as high as I can as I watch the ball as it set to my right hand in slow motion. The ball reaches my hand and in a millisecond it is slammed down on the other side of the net. Earning my team a point.

I land gracefully on the ground as my confidant smile pulls on my lips. The entire volleyball looks in awe at the height of my jump, speed, and overall power of my spike. 

"Wow...She is really good. I didn't expect that." The girl who had criticized me said with awe.

My now smug smile stayed on my face for the rest of the game as I showed everyone I'm not just a one-trick pony. When I wasn't spiking I was receiving each and every ball. Only a few were able to slip through my fingers. The game finished and of course, my team won by a landslide of points. The whole team wanted me on their team, but little did I know they weren't the only ones. The boys' volleyball coach stood just outside the gym doors hoping he could convince the principal to let me on his team.
