♔Charlie's POV♔
I was sitting at one of the many tables playing games on my phone when it happened. My phone started ringing, I recognised the number so picked it up.
"Hey Char, leaving to Japan and leaving your family all because I didn't let you join the team was a bit immature."
I growled and went to answer when I was cut off,
"I have a surprise for you, enjoy your basketball while you can Charlie."
The other line went silent and I slammed my phone on the table. He was always such an-
A bunch of boys crashed through the doors to the lunch room and wee instantly getting food of the skittles. I got up and joined Momoi at serving them.
When we were done, I put some plain spaghetti on my plate and then followed Momoi to the table in the middle of the room. I looked at the colourful heads and realised it was going it be harder to get rid of the multi coloured team then I had originally thought.
Everyone ate and talked while I ate my spaghetti not adding a word to the conversation. When nearly the whole room was done, I stood up to get seconds and when I came back the whole dining room was silent.
"Was she here the whole time?" A boy whispered to his friends but as the room was silent I could hear it so well he could have been shouting.
Akashi got up and I walked back to my seat and began to eat.
"Today we are training in the pool, everyone should get into trunks and meet downstairs at 3 we will be training in the pool until 5 then we have a 2 hour basketball practise. Any problems see me."
I carried on eating. I could probably get out of the basketball training my saying I'm tired out after the swimming. The only problem was that I could only wear my anklets and bracelets to stop me from unleashing my full strength and hurting myself.
I finished my second plate of pasta and looked at the time. It was 2, I decided that I could probably have time to do some swimming before everyone else.
I put my plate in the dishwasher, along with around 20 other plates. As I went to leave I noticed Akashi was standing next to me.
"I'm going for a swim."
I left and made my way to the locker rooms downstairs where I stored my hoodie and shorts in my locker along with my boxers and sports bra that've had . Then pulling on my swimming cap and googles I walked through to the pool.
I had been swimming for what felt like mere minutes when I realised the basketball team were getting ready to swim. Akashi was writing on a whiteboard the sets that the difference teams were doing. I swam to where the diving boards were and climbed out.
When everyone,apart from the skittles, knew what they were doing and had started swimming I directed attention back towards me.
"Char-cchi how long have you been there for?!" Kise shouted as the rest of the team jumped.
"I was swimming."
Akashi cleared his throat and began addressing us.
"We have a match tomorrow after the first day of school against Taiga."
"Who's that?" I asked.
Everyone sighed and Akashi motioned for the skittles to start their swimming practice.
"You don't have to follow the regime. You've swim enough Charlie. You will play in the match tomorrow, the team has arguably one of the best basketball players in it, Kagami Taiga. He defeated all of us. However the reason was most definitely Tetsuya."
"What time is it?"
" a bit after 3. You have 2 hours to do whatever you want. But we have basketball practice and if you're late you will be punished." I nodded and quickly ran off to get changed into my clothes.
~Time Skip~
My damp hair whipped against my face as I rode my motorbike along the abandoned country streets. I loved my motorbike as much as basketball and had managed to park it in the school garage.
I didn't know where I was going but when I spotted a grown over basketball court I pulled over and hopped off my bike leaving it leaning on the fence surrounding the court, taking off my backpack, withdrew a basketball and placed it in my motorbike seat,
I dribbled for a bit, dodging defenders, dunking and having made a three pointer from the other side of the court I heard applause, I quickly glanced at my watch, it was only 4. I had an hour left to either go back, find a new court or be social.
I don't get the option to leave when a boy of around my age and Aomine's height with ombred hair, going from red to black (just like mine) appeared at the only entrance, and exit.
"Nice skills."
I thought for a second and realised I could play the foreigner card.
"I'm very sorry but I am not sure what you are saying. I don't come from around here." I replied, hoping he would get the message and leave.
"Don't worry I used to live in America. I said nice skills. " he replied with dreadful accent.
"I find that hard to believe when you sound like an elementary kid trying to speak English for the first time." I replied in Japanese.
He smirked and barely looked surprised. In fact he looked more worried then surprised.
"Charlie it's fun joking around but why are you in Japan?"
