You've Got Me In Your Pocket [Tsukishima x Reader]

Chapter 3 - Strange interactions

You jump on to your bed and bury your face into your pillow. What the hell was that about? How did he know I was doing it on purpose? You check your Instagram and realise you have a couple of new followers, which didn't shock you or anything; after all, you met a lot of new people today. The one thing that did shock you was that one of your new followers was Tsukishima Kei. That guy has social media?! You were kind of in disbelief; who knew a guy like Tsukishima would have Instagram, let alone follow YOU on Instagram? You put your phone on charge and tuck into bed.

*PING*

You sigh and check your phone.

tsukishimakei: So why did you avoid me during volleyball practice.

tsukishimakei: Hm.. K.

What the fuck. What is this guy on?!

Aggressively, you slam your phone on the table and wonder why you just let Stingyshima just K you. Eventually, your anger led you to a deep slumber.

*Next day*

After getting ready for school, you step out and start walking while scrolling through Instagram and Twitter on your phone. Obliviously, you bump into a tall figure.

"Oh my god I'm so sorry!" you exclaim. You look up and immediately take back your apology. "Oh... it's you, nevermind."

The tall blondie not even turning his body around, just his head, side eyes you.

"Whatever. Watch where you're going."

Seriously, what's his problem?! You roll your eyes and keep walking. To your surprise, he was casually walking beside you but still in silence, until we reached Yamaguchi's house when he ran out to meet us.

"Oh, you guys are friends now!" Yamaguchi says.

"We're not, we just happened to bump into eachother." I declare.

"What? So why did Tsukki ask for your Insta?"

Tsukishima's eyes widen and he clearly tenses up.

"Yeah.. why did you?" you give him a curious look.

"I just wanted to ask you why you avoided me during the game. That's all."

You and Yamaguchi both let out a small "Oh" and carry on walking. There would be occasional casual chatting between you and Yamaguchi but Tsukishima would mostly be quiet listening to his music.

You, Yamaguchi and the salty blonde enter school and walk to homeroom together. You and Yamaguchi were practically friends now so you asked if he would like to spend lunch with you, Hinata and Kageyama and of course he said yes. You look over to Tsukishima who was clearly waiting for an invite too.

"You can come too if you want."

"Whatever." Tsukishima spurted.

You all walked to where you and Kageyama had lunch last time.

"WHAT THE FREAK!" Hinata shouts. "What is Stingyshima doing here?!"

"I asked Yamaguchi to eat with us and I would have felt bad if Tsukishima ate alone." Tsukishima had his headphones in so he didnt hear the remark you made about him.

Everyone ate their lunch and you, Yamaguchi and Hinata would talk while Kageyama and Tsukishima were silent. After finishing your lunch, you were quite full but you still pull out your leftover strawberry shortcake that mom left for you this morning. Before taking a bite you notice Tsukishima was staring intensely at it.

"Do you want it?" you say, looking at him and pointing at the cake.

"No." he turns his head away.

"Yes you do. Take it, I'm full anyway." you say, putting it in front of him while hes still facing the other direction.

After a while of hesitating, he finally starts to dig in and eat it.

"Hey Y/N, are you going to come to our practice today?" Hinata asks excitedly, obviously wanting you to come.

"Well I have nothing to do after school, so yeah sure." You smile at him.

"You should become our manager." Kageyama breaks his silence.

"Hmm, I'm thinking about it."

*Skip to volleyball practice*

You and some of the other first years walk in and Daichi notices you're there straight away.

"Y/N you're back!" he says loudly for the rest of the players to hear.

"Yeah I am, where's Kiyoko-san? I wanna talk to her."

"Shes still in the club room, you can go to her or wait here if you want."

You thank Daichi and decide to go to the clubroom. On the way there, you see Tsukishima and you weakly smile at him, which he definitely saw but ignored.

"I gave you my dessert today and you can't even smile back?" you complain.

"Thanks, shortcake."

You dramatically face him, "Did you just call me shortcake?"

"Yes. You're short and you gave me shortcake. Problem?"

You hide your face as you blush; no one has given you a nickname before, except for your parents.

You awkwardly carry on walking, feeling Tsukishima's glare from behind. Reaching the clubroom, you find Kiyoko who was sorting some stuff out so she didn't see you walk in. You tap her on the shoulder.

"Hey Kiyoko, can I talk to you?" You ask timidly. She's so pretty and independent so she intimidates you. She nods.

"I would like an application form to be manager. This club really intrigues me."

She smiles and frantically looks around the clubroom and eventually pulls out a piece of paper and gives it to you.

"Thank you." she simply says.
