On the court, Sakusa Kiyoomi and Miya Atsumu are rivals-sharp words, sharper plays, and an unspoken challenge in every match. Atsumu pushes, Sakusa resists, and neither is willing to back down.

Off the court, it's somehow worse.

Between Osamu's blunt remarks, and their teammates' prying eyes, the line between rivalry and something more begins to blur. Atsumu, with his past weighing heavy on his shoulders, hides behind cocky grins, while Sakusa-stoic, precise, and utterly unwilling to deal with unnecessary emotions-finds himself pulled in despite every instinct telling him not to.

But when past wounds threaten to resurface, will Atsumu let himself be caught-or will he push Sakusa away before either of them can fall?

Enemies, teammates, something more. In the game of volleyball-and love-timing is everything.
