Ushiwaka dragged Hinata into the empty room and pushed the door shut behind him.

"Shoyo. You realise that you just got out the infirmary right?? I'm terribly sorry but there is no way you're going out and serving people for the rest of today." Ushiwaka explained.

"What?! You realise that I didn't even serve anyone right?" Hinata replied, with a tone of annoyance.

"Nope. You are scheduled to relax and have fun for the time being. If we really need your help, then I'll be sure to send someone to com and get you, okay?" Ushiwaka reasoned.

Hinata had no reason to say no anyways so she reluctantly nodded with what he suggested.

"Now, one of your managers with yellow hair said that since you only brought you school uniform and your maid outfit, you can wear an outfit they picked out earlier. I think it is in your locker."

Hinata went to her locker and saw a yellow sundress with white dandelion outlines threaded at the bottom.

"I think it would look very good on you," Ushiwaka said, looking over Hinata's shoulder.

He proceeded to draw the curtains and sneak out the door before she could reply.
Hinata slipped into the dress and knocked on the door, saying it was safe for someone to walk in.

The person who walked in was relatively tall in comparison to Hinata. He had dark hair and fairly long bangs with big eyes. A sense of pride and strength lingered about him.

"Hey I'm meant to take you to the school festival? Ushijima-san said he 'entrusted' it to me or something haha," he chuckled nervously with a hand rubbing the back of his neck.

His stature completely contrasted with the personality he gave off.
This brought a smile to Hinata's face.

Finally a person that day she could easily let her guard down around.
She gladly let him guide her around as they bonded over the silliest of things.

Until finally...

"Hey you're on the volleyball team with Wakatoshi-kun, right?"

Goshiki narrowed his eyes as he heard her nickname for his senpai.

"Yeah I am. But I'm going to be the number one ace of Shiratorizawa's boys' volleyball team one day!" He declared sincerely.

"I'm going to be the number one ace of Karasuno's boys' volleyball team as well! We're the same!" Hinata laughed.

Goshiki stood there in silence as he watched the ginger before him laugh. But she was showing no signs of joking or messing around.
Hinata noticed this and immediately elaborated.

"Seeing a girl on a boys volleyball team doesn't make sense right? But I'm a first-year regular! Just like you! We are literally connected!"
Goshiki didn't reply. How could he? What could you even say to that anyways?

"Yeah don't worry you don't have to believe me." Hinata said, her tone significantly more deflated than before.

Hinata and Goshiki were taking a break from the stores and were just alongside each other when they passed by a few sakura trees that were isolated from the stalls.

"You know, for some reason, I feel compelled to believe you,"Goshiki said.

Hinata looked up to a smiling Goshiki, mesmerised in her thoughts when multiple cherry blossoms floated gradually to the ground and a slight breeze blew, letting her dress flow around her.

Breathtaking, Goshiki thought as he leaned in at the opportunity.

He slowly inched closer and closer, closing his eyes, only to be randomly stopped by a hand covering his mouth, preventing him from inching closer.
