"Hinata, are you limping?" Kageyama yelled from across the gym. Everyone paused in their tracks, surprised by the sudden outburst. Hinata fell over as he was in midair in the middle of practicing one of their quicks. "W-what?" Hinata exclaimed, surprised that Kageyama actually noticed. It wasn't really like him to care anyway. Kageyama walked towards him with a unidentifiable expression. To Hinata, Kageyama was the most scary when he wasn't expressing his usual anger. "Stand up." The taller boy demanded. ☆☆☆ There's something wrong with Hinata's leg, and that's quite the problem when all he cares about is volleyball. To an athlete, your body is all you've got; and Hinata has tried for way too long to reach the point he is to just give up. But that proves to be a problem when it hurts the point he can barely walk, and Nationals are right around the corner. The team is faced with hard choices and for Kageyama; even harder ones. Realizing that he may lose Hinata only triggered his realization on how he felt for middle blocker. But it's hard to worry about his loved ones when lately the setter has been having problems of his own. --- SEQUEL IS OUT: PARALYZED CHECK IT OUT ON MY PROFILE Highest Ranking: #1 in Kagehina Taken place after Haikyuu season 3.

It's hard to be a prodigy. A genius. Kageyama wasn't always the best. But he's worked his ass off to the point where he is. It's hard to love something when you're the only one that's good at it. It's hard to be average. Nothing out of the ordinary. Hinata wasn't always average. But after sustaining an injury in his first year, he's fallen behind. Behind Kageyama. The imbalance in their once competitive relationship results in no relationship at all. And that means no romantic relationship either.
