Where there is Love (Asahi x Reader)

"Y/n-san, you have to try it one time!" Noya begged

"No. Unlike you Noya, I don't want to risk breaking my neck." I said before drinking down my water.

"You won't break your neck if you do it right. I'll demonstrate." He crouched low to the ground. "Rolling THUNDER!" it wasn't much of a demonstration. He did the same as he always did and expected me to follow suit. I laughed while shaking my head.

"Nishinoya, leave her alone. You are supposed to be on opposing teams." Daichi came up beside us while shaking his head as well.

"But she has to learn! It could be useful to her!" Noya groaned out, jumping up quickly.

"No, now get back to your side, we have a game to play."

The boys have been practicing nonstop and since I had started playing again, I would play with them. Today, I was on the team with Kags, Hinata, Daichi and Tanaka as the white team and I'm playing as a wing spiker. Kageyama has come to love playing with me because of our shared abilities of pinpoint accuracy. Hinata likes playing with me because of all the praise I give him whenever he does something good. We have played 4 sets in total, we have won two and lost two. This last set is to establish who is the best team. Kiyoko stood on the side making notes on the boys and me while all of us got in position. On the other side of the net stood Asahi. Recently, Kiyoko gave him a headband to use instead of the buns in fear of him losing his hairline. I am unsure whether I should thank her for this or not because seeing the wisps of hair in his face made me want to brush it back myself. He was distracting, to say the least.

"Are you ready for the last set?" He asked kindly.

"Are you ready to lose?" I smirked up at him. He shook his head at me and his kind smile turned into a devastatingly handsome smirk.

"I'm not losing to you today." He said back.

"Wanna bet on it? If we win, you are getting me that ice cream you promised a while back." I said to him.

"Fine, if I win, you come to dinner at my house. My mom has been asking about you." That had me floored. My mouth opened slightly and I felt my face heat up and not from the exhaustion of these practice matches. "N-not i-if you don't want to though. It's not like I talk about you to her. S-she saw you one time and asked who you were. Yeah, that's all." His face turned bright red and he scratched the back of his neck.

"I-I'll come to dinner. I already said I wanted to meet her a while ago. But I should go home and change first, you know. I don't want to be a sweaty mess meeting your mom." I laughed nervously.

"Oi, can you two stop flirting so we can get on with this match? It's always like this." Tsukki said from beside Asahi and both our faces flushed once again. I could hear the other boys laughing and I could feel Kiyoko smiling at me.

"Shut up, Tsukki, you're mad because you know you are about to lose. Dinosaur headass." I grumbled getting back into position, my face still hot. He rolled his eyes at me and put his hands behind his head waiting for Yams to serve.

After a long period of rallies (much to Ukai's delight), we won the game. We cheered happily as Hinata and Tanaka ran at me for double high-fives. I heard the team on the other side of the net groaning. After our celebratory high fives, I crossed the net to Asahi.

"So when are you getting me my ice cream?" I smiled at him innocently and he playfully glared down at me.

"Later," He said before turning away from me to get his water.

"Awww don't be a sore loser, Asahi. I always did say I was the better ace." I followed behind him poking his back playfully. Just as he was about to say something in return, Takeda-Sensei burst through the gym door and fell flat on his face.
