Where We Belong by 100FallenAngels

Y/n Hoshni. She's smart, kind, and a hopeless romantic with a "minor" addiction to romance manga. Her past taints with how she sees the world, but maybe, being pushed a bit by her two lifelong friends will do her some good. Even a spiky-haired blonde that she hated could show her what it's like to breathe without having to race for the next breath. Or possibly give her the very thing she just can't stop reading about. //Female Reader// Supervisor: @100percentashipper

I can do it with a broken heart | k. kenma by giubrick

If someone would've told Hayami that she'd became the manager of a volleyball team she wouldn't have believed them. And there she was. Becoming a manager, a teammate, a friend, a sister. But mostly, an ice skater. A strong one. A National Star. She must practice between tears. Fights. Transfers. She had a dream. And that dream was shining on the first place with the gold medal around her neck, her blades on the ice, showing the world that yes, she can do it with a broken heart. Disclaimer: I DO NOT own any of the "Haikyuu!" characters, I only own my OC!! Also, english is not my first language so I'm sorry for bad grammar (I will try to fix every errors during time!) I hope that you'll enjoy my story anyway!
