Shouyou's first day of high school is far more terrifying than it has any right to be. He thinks of being able to actually play on a real, powerhouse team for volleyball, rather than one cobbled together from friends and half baked promises of meat buns and helping them practice. Thinks of playing more than one match in all three years of his middle school career- one match that had ended in half an hour and been lost in straight sets. The thought of being a regular on an actual team is incredible, leaves him breathless and giddy, even as he sits at his polished desk, surrounded by unfamiliar faces who all seem to be familiar, but only with each other. It doesn't matter, though. Friends are nice but volleyball is better. He'll make it on Aoba Johsai's team, he has to- and if he doesn't, well. He'll prove his worth a thousand times over if he has to.Complete![Bound Beneath the Moon [ONC 2021] ✔](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/260484093-256-k66625.jpg)

Raven is a sixteen year old 5'6" male from Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, with dark, shiny hair, and beautiful black eyes. It is his dream to become a worldwide known famous figure skater, but he doesn't quite have the skills, and his family is too poor to hire somebody to teach him. Everything he knows, he learned off of YouTube. Yes, he is very talented, but not all the way up to the standards, sadly. Faro is a seventeen year old 6'2" male from London with shitty box-dyed light blue hair, and shining green eyes. Not having to dream at all, he is already a very famous, worldwide known skater. The most famous for his age, at that. Girls, and even some guys, swoon when they see him. For a good reason too. He is very attractive. Raven is head over heels for Faro. He's probably Faro's biggest fan. One day, when Raven is practicing, some of his high school bullies decide to sneak into the rink where he practices, and film him, thinking that when they post it, he'll be a laughingstock. But Faro comes across the video after it getting shared a few hundred times by people who have nothing better to do than laugh at the poor boy for stumbling. Faro, however, sees potential in Raven. ~~~ Trigger warnings for: Bullying Cussing Slurs (censored) Self harm slight 🌶spice🌶 (iykyk) because ✨yes✨ etc... ~~~ Started: December 19, 2022 Finished: December 22, 2022Complete
