Respect (Sakusa x Reader) - DICONTINUED

The match

Guzzling down the nearly ice cold water as the summer heat strips you of any cool air, the gym windows and doors wide open as the brimming and chirping of wildlife echoes into the court. Before you teams gather up in the stands from high above ready and waiting for the cats and eagles showdown.

"So what's our stand on this?" Minimi asks setting down her bottle still having her white towel slung over her neck. The others aren't far away from you as you spread your legs out further heels edging onto the hardwood floor.

"We exploit Ushijima. He's an advantage and a disadvantage for the team, let's toy with that." You say losely gripping onto your bottle in between your thighs.

"E-exploit him??" Suki repeats what you've just said slightly sweat dropping at how calmly you just suggested something so hard to do.

"But this isn't a five set game, Y/n. How are we supposed to shut him down when we only have 3 sets at most?" Sara conjures hand on hip trying to play as the Japan's next modal.

"Mm. We let him beat his drum." Leaning forwards into your hands as your lips graze your knotted knuckles narrowing your gaze at the opposition. "When we serve we serve to him, the others pick up after him but they'll rue the day they chose that. Always a three-man block on him...in the first set that is." The others gape open in shock only now catching up with your thought process.

"He's a lefty so position yourself to his left. The first set will be hard, jumping will be hard as the net is at the height of 7'11.5 feet tall unlike the usual 7'4 feet tall. Those 7 inches will make it or break it. We will be doing time differential attacks to counter this but..." Standing up removing the red jersey displaying the number 5 on the front tying your hair back into a high pony.

"It's the second set where all the fun will begin." The team shudders from the scary look donning your face as the cunning aura oozes from you like armour.

It was the grueling first set. The ball is in session you, Nova and and Sara up in front as you all watch the ball pass from Shirabu and across to the back where the already and waiting ace charges in front. Taking a quick look at the points Shiratorizawa is in the lead by a landslide, biting your lip looking at the ball.

"Now."

All three of you jump for a straight causing the alarmed male to instantly change the course of the trajectory weakening it a bit to a cross shot. Izumi dives for the ball as both you and Nova move back heading in for a synchronized attack on both sides, Sara smirks sending the ball back past both of best spikers into a pipe. Suki pants landing back down to her feet the other side scrutinize the obvious trap that they lured in. 

Sneaky. Cunning. Yellow eyes glare them down sending shivers down Shirabus spine, sweat trickles down the boys brow. Even with a winning streak it feels more like pulling teeth than sweeping the floor with them, he eyes his ace who's chest heaves up and down, up and down.

"Timeout!" Washijo calls finally letting you girls have a break.

"Keep it up girls, they're feeling the walls closing in on them-" Coach stops interrupted by none other than you.

"Don't let him rest. Make him mess up, how far can we rile up the great stoic man?" Rubbing your neck a few times standing back up looking at the participant box and who to draw up upon next.

"Let's kickstart that off with Subaru-chan." The first year trembling girl freezes as the entire team turns to her.

"Good choice, she's been trying to perfect her serve for a long time now."Minimi adds patting her kouhais shoulder with a nice welcoming smile.
