Past & Present - Keishin Ukai x Reader

Chapter 2.

Upon arriving at the camp, Bokuto helped me off the bus with my bags. I was literally attacked by Tetsuro and Taketora. I giggled as I hugged them back. "Hey boys!" "(Y/N)!!!! You're looking as beautiful as ever!" Taketora beamed at me. I giggled as the boy looked at me with so much admiration and love in his eyes. "Tora you're as blunt as always but thank you." I said ruffling his Mohawk. Kuroo seemed to look behind me grinning. "Look who we have here! Ready to lose Daichi?" He said jokingly. "Kuroo! I'm so sorry for his rudeness! He doesn't-wh-" I looked at the team in front of me. Karasuno High. Behind them, a familiar face looked back at me with wide eyes.

"(Y-Y/N)?" Ukai whispered to himself but I could hear that voice from a mile away. Taketora seemed to take notice and stepped in front of me, shielding me. "What do you want with her man!? She's ours!" Kuroo slapped him upside the head muttering him to behave but he looked concerned as well seeing the tears form in my eyes. "Oh crap.." Bokuto stated beside me. He forced me to look at him, concern written all over his face. I took a shaky breath and simply nodded at him. He nodded back dragging Kuroo and Tora away with the Karasuno team following in suit who were whispering and glancing at me, especially the boy with the shaved head.

Ukai stood in front of me now. He seemed shaken to his core just at the sight of me. I kept my eyes focused on the ground. He was a lot closer to me than I thought he was. I felt him slightly lift my head by my chin. I shut my eyes mentally preparing for this conversation. I shouldn't be the one to be annoyed or upset. I was the one who decided to leave. I was the one stupid enough to leave the best thing that happened to me because I was simply afraid of the future. Me. I did this.

"Look at me (Y/N).." His voice was soft yet stern. I took another shaky breath, opening my eyes and was met with his sad brown ones. "Keishin...." He seemed to shutter upon hearing his name leave my lips. "Why are you here.." "I-I'm the assistant coach at my cousin's school." He clicked his tongue at my response. I flinched feeling his sadness radiate into anger. This man was about to chew me out. "Just..don't get in my way.." He huffed as he pushed passed me. I felt a gasp leave my throat as I collapsed to the bench beside me, gripping my shirt trying to force the tears back. I felt hands on my shoulders forcing me up into their chest.

"Are you ok? I couldn't just leave you alone out here. What did that jerk say to you!" Bokuto's voice dripped with worry. I hugged my cousin sobbing slightly. "I don't know why I'm so upset. I did this to him..to us. He still hates me. He h-hates me Bo." I silently cried to my cousin. He sighed rubbing my back, trying to calm me and offer support. "Come on. Let's get you some water to calm down." Before he could move, I shook my head, releasing myself from his bear hug. "No, no I'll be fine. Why don't you go warm up and get ready for the practice games, yea? Tell coach I'll be right in.."

Before he could object, I walked away wiping the tears from my eyes and face. This is gonna be a long week....
