Dreams or safety || oihina

The beginning of the recrution

This plan is foolproof.

3rd person POV:
Hinata walked through the gates of the prestigious school for the 3rd day this week. It took all his willpower to not stop and wait for Kageyama to appear so they could start their daily race to the gym. Or to yell "Noya-senpai" at the top of his lungs. These memories made Hinatas eyes pool with water. He missed his old teammates.
His first teammates.
His family.

At the same time Oikawa was struggling with concentrating during practice. He's ran the plan through his head a million times.
He had to make sure it was perfect. He wanted nothing more than "his Chibi-chan" to play on the same team as him. He wanted to toss to him. He wanted to go to nationals with him.
The team knew that if Hinata joined their team they finally had a chance against Shiratorizawa.

In this universe flying is equivalent to success.
But Aoba Johsai are the plants, the trees. They weren't ever destined to win.
But if a certain crow joined them. Would they finally be able to fly.
Or will they forever be rooted.
Will they forever stay as the second place powerhouse.

Bamm!
A ball hit Oikawa in the back of the head.
"Owww Iwa-chan, that hurt."
"Well then take your head out the clouds and focus, this the 2nd time you've missed a set."
"Yes Iwa-chan."
And with that practice continued until the warning bell rang. They all got changed and went to there assigned classes.

—time skip to class—

3rd person POV:
In Kunimi's, Kindaichi's and Hinata's class they were due to start a project which they were to do in pairs.
They were not allowed to choose their pairs, of course. They were assigned by the teacher.
Kindaichi was disappointed as he didn't end up getting paired up with Kunimi.
The teacher carried on until she got to the last two.
Hinata knew what was about to happen. His breathing quickened. His eyes locked with Kunimi's. His pupils widening.
The universe was against him in every way.

Kunimi's POV:
I got paired with Hinata. I couldn't care less.
But he looked panicked. He looked as though he thought the universe was against him.
Hmmmm what to do. Like how do i approach him without scaring him. I would like to pass this class.
Ehhh I'll talk to him tomorrow.

—after school—

3rd person POV:
Hinata was walking out of his class. Mind clouded with how to talk to Kunimi to do the project. Not even looking were he was going until he bumped into someone.
He started apologising frantically till he looked up.
"Ah Chibi-chan I was looking for you."
"Oh, Oikawa. What do you need?"
"I came to ask you to if you would ref our game."
"Don't you have someone already?"
"Yeh but they're sick and you're the only person I can think of that knows enough about volleyball to ref."
"What about your coach?"
"He doesn't like to ref as he says he can't see our play well enough or something, so he asked me to find someone."
"Fine, I'll do it, but only this once."

Oikawa's POV:
Yes, it worked. Okay part one, check.
Now after he sees us play he will fall in love with the sport again and join. Yes it's perfect.

Me and Chibi-chan make our way to the gym. I can't take my eyes of him.
Every time I look at him I feel funny. But not in they way I did when I first saw him. This funny started the first time I saw him to give him the tour. He looks empty in a way. It just makes me so sad. That the once bubbly Chibi-chan looks so different now. He still smiles all the time, but this smile is different and I don't like that. I need to get his old smile back.

Yet he still looks stunning. His amber eyes, god I could get lost in those for hours, days even. And his hair. It looks so fluffy. I can just imagine my hands threading through those ginger locks.
No. No. No. Oikawa stop. You're a third year and he's a first year this will never work. Never ever.
But why can't I stop myself. Why can't his image just leave my head. Ahhhhh

3rd person POV:
The two boys make it to the gym. Everyone is surprised apart from the coach (Oikawa filled him in).
The whole team, excluding Iwazumi and Kunimi, started bombarding Hinata with questions.
Hinata didn't like all these people getting close to him, asking him questions. Luckily for him Oikawa saw this and stepped in.
"Chibi-chan is just here to ref."
"Okay enough." Coach yelled "let's start."
With that everyone started.

Hinata POV:
Why did I agree to come ahhhhh. I was here for about 5 seconds and I got bombarded with questions.
But I couldn't say no to Oikawa. I got trapped in his eyes and that was the end of that. I was under his spell.

Refereeing this game reminded me how much I loved volleyball. The ball flying back and forth. God this was what I fell in love with.
The way my hand felt after I spiked. Or the way a successful block felt. I miss this so much.

Maybe I should join....
No. No. No. No. I can't. He found us because I played in a volleyball club. And besides without Kageyama I'm nothing. It was his tosses that made me a threat. Not my own ability.....

3rd person POV:
One bad receive and....

The ball was flying straight at Hinata.
