Roman jumped forward, smacking the ball down onto the other side of the court, watching it slow down and bounce across the floor " Hell yeah!" He exclaimed proudly as his feet hit the ground, he turned around to look at his teammates.
" I swear to gay Jesus, calm down, we're not even in a game!" Virgil groaned, rolling his eyes at the over-excited teen.
" Shut up, emo nightmare " The male retorted, crossing his arms " I'm just excited, our next real game is in less than a month "
" It's normal to be exhilarated for things as such, Virgil, I would say it's a surprise you aren't acting as such but I know you better," Logan said, receiving a ball Patton had just served over the net.
" R-Right " Virgil stuttered, nodding " Well I'm more anxious than excited " He murmured, holding his hands up.
" Give it to me Virgil!" The emo watched as the ball fell perfectly into his palms for a few seconds before he pushed the ball behind him where Roman was jumping up already.
Roman smiled widely, his hand came down on the ball and before he knew it the ball came flying back, thanks to Paton who was practicing blocking, just in case " Logan!" He shouted, now back on the ground. He turned swiftly just in time to see Logan leap forward, receiving the ball
Everything came to a stop when Virgil attempted a setter dump, where the setter fakes out the other team, pretending to start a set but instead of sending the ball to a spiker they just barely send it over the net. Except for this time it hit the net and came down onto Virgil's side of the court.
" Awwe "s and groans filled the gym for a few moments, then everyone's attention turned to the captain, Remy, and of course co-captain Emile
" Good job babes, just stop messing up and we're great " Remy chuckled, picking up one of the volleyballs, Virgil grumbled in response, knowing better than to send a jab at the captain.
Roman wasn't concerned much with the captain, he was looking at his brother and another male. He seemed shorter than the rest of the people in the room, maybe around 5'6 or 5'7. the bangs of his dirty blonde hair fell out of his beanie, covering part of his beautiful hazel eyes. To be honest Roman thought he was gorgeous.
Emile moved out of the way, handing Roman a towel as he rushed onto the court to practice. Roman smiled and walked over to his brother " Hey " He greeted, his smile only growing. Then Remus grabbed Roman by the collar of his white shirt and pulled him aside
Janus watched as Remus grabbed Roman's arm, pointing at the bruises and saying something. Roman slightly flinched before smiling again, rubbing the back of his neck as he replied. After a few moments, Remus nodded and they walked back over.
" Uh so hi, I'm Roman, " The tall male said with a small, nervous laugh and an audible but quiet "ow" when Remus elbowed him in the ribs
" Hey.." Janus mumbled " I'm Dee, " He said quietly, looking over at Remus for a moment or two
Roman grinned " Cool, are you- " Remus cut him off.
" Yeah, he is!" Janus watched them look at each other with an excited expression. He raised an eyebrow.
'Did Remus know what he was gonna say?' Janus tilted his head to the right. He shrugged it off, looking away from the pair.
" Come on let me see your spikes!" Roman called, running back onto the court.
" Patton, can you set for us?"
" Wait, Roman maybe we should introduce him to the team first " Emile suggested gently, glancing at Remy who nodded in agreement
" Fine " Roman huffed in disappointment. He walked over to Virgil and Logan, who handed him a bottle of water.
Janus grabbed onto Remus's arm " This is ridiculous, Rems " Remus chuckled and gave him a reassuring smile.
After about 20 minutes, lunch break ended, Janus knew the team's names now but he was still very unsure about this. Remus and Roman were walking him to his next class, despite Janus telling them they didn't have to.
" You're gonna be late to class, idiots " Janus mumbled as they walked down a corridor, past other classrooms with which Janus was not familiar with.
" That's fine, class is boring anyways, Cozbi-Kun " Roman sighed, raising his arms and placing his hands on top of each other at the back of his neck. Janus merely rolled his eyes.
" Whatever " Janus huffed " And just call me Dee, not Cozbi " He added, suddenly becoming very interested in his own shoes, not wanting to make eye contact.
" Don't pry about it Ro-Ro" Remus grinned at his brother as they approached Janus's destination, but Roman merely nodded.
Janus muttered a few shy goodbyes before walking into the classroom. During Janus's goodbyes, Roman noticed something, he instantly recognized it as a chest binder, showing slightly at the edge of the shorter male's hoodie and shirt.
" He seems kinda bitter " Roman commented as they began walking away, to which Remus quickly responded.
" Give him some time Roman," Remus said, glancing at him " He'll warm up to you and the team, I guarantee it " He added.
Roman nodded again " Alright, well I gotta get to class before I get into trouble " He flashed Remus a smile and headed in a different direction. His mind was on Janus's binder and the fact he could possibly be transgender.
'You can't exercise in a binder, how is he going to play volleyball?'
967 words! Better than last time, hopefully, I didn't make as many mistakes as the last chapter. This was kinda a fuller chapter but it's a bit important so :/
