Part 11

"Hey! Nishinoya! Stop trying to balance the food on your head!"

"FINE!"

"Tanaka! Plates are not frisbees!"

"If you throw them hard enough-!"

"Kageyama! Stop scaring Hinata half to death!"

"I'm just asking him to try my chicken!"

Sugawara huffed out an exasperated sigh. "Come on you guys! Please try to be a bit more productive!"

Osamu tapped Sugawara on the shoulder from behind, and Sugawara turned to see him holding a large bowl of clam chowder (yummy).

"Thank you Osamu, get ready to bring it out."

Yamaguchi yelped in pain, and everyone turned to see him set down a tray of Brussel sprouts before waving his hand around. "Oww!"

No-one saw him, but Tsukishima rushed over there clutching a first-aid kit, his face more worried than Sugawara had ever seen him. He grabbed Yamaguchi's hand, pulling out some ointment and a roll of bandages. He rubbed some ointment on the burn, whispering words of comfort under his breath as he then wrapped Yamaguchi's fingers with the bandages.

Sugawara glanced to the side and caught Suna recording Tsukishima on his phone. He reached over and stuck his hand in front of the camera, hissing "Stop recording!" Suna glared, but hit stop and put his phone back in his pocket.

Ennoshita strode over to show Sugawara his watch. "It's time, Sugawara-san."

Sugawara clapped his hands together twice. "Okay guys, come on! Let's bring out the food because-" He burst through the door holding two plates of food. "Dinner is served~!"

Anyone who didn't know Sugawara wouldn't notice the slight falter in his step, but Sugawara had been Bokuto's chef ever since he was a child. However, Bokuto was busy ogling a young teen who sat next to him, so Sugawara didn't need to worry about that.

He swept over to the table, setting down his dishes and directing others to put their dishes in specific spots. When all the dishes were on the table, he motioned to everyone with a nod of his head and he counted down with his fingers.

3, 2, 1...

With a flourish, everyone whipped off the silver platter covers that covered their dishes.

A wave of aromas and steam hit the two seated at the head of the table. Bokuto inhaled deeply, then let out a contented sigh. The teenager looked like he wanted to reach out and touch the food, but also was a bit intimidated by it as well.

Sugawara caught his eye, and he smiled assuredly. "Don't worry, you won't be the only ones eating all this food."

The teen tilted his head in confusion, just as the hall door opened. He turned to face the door and instantly he paled a little.

"Hey~ it's ya boy Kuroo in the house!"

"Shut up."

"Oi Kenma! Be a little less blunt about it!"

"Yahoo~!"

"Shut up Shittykawa."

"So mean, Iwa-chan!"

"I SPOT A WILD KARASUNO NUMBER 10!!"

"Hello."

"DON'T SAY IT!"

"I just said 'hello'-"

"BUT I KNOW YOU'RE GONNA SAY THE OTHER THING TOO!!"

"Shut up."

"Be nice, Mad Dog-chan!"

The teen winced from all the conversations and yelling that flooded in from the corridor. Bokuto chuckled and laid a hand on his shoulder. This alone seemed to be enough to comfort him.

Hmm, Sugawara thought. I'll have to investigate.

Crash!

I'll have to investigate later, it seems.

"TANAKA!! I SAID PLATES ARE NOT FRISBEES!!"

This is really crappy.

Anyways, sorry I haven't updated in a really long time.
