"Why didn't you help us?" Asahi is standing right in front of you but instead of a smile a frown is tacked onto his face.
"Asahi i-" You stop mid sentence seeing the glare aimed at you this time from a third year setter.
"Y/N, How could you betray our trust like that?" Asahi walks away as Suga steps closer to you. "Sitting over there with Seijoh while we were struggling on the court?" Suga tsk crossing his arms. "All buddy buddy with the people who hurt us, and you call yourself a friend?" Suga turns around "Don't bother talking to me anymore."
Your eyes widen as Sugawara walks away "Suga wait, PLEASE!" The silver haired male stops walking and he turns to you, his mouth set into a grim line "Don't call me 'Suga' ever again, only my friends call me that." And just like that, he's gone.
In his place is Ennoshita, Narita, and Kinoshita.
"E-Ennoshita! Narita! Kinoshita!" You rush over to the three second years only for them to turn their backs to you.
Ennoshita turns his head to you "Don't worry Y/N, we're just repaying your favor." Ennoshita turns back around and talks to Narita and Kinoshita like you weren't even there.
Your eyes begin to fill with tears as Ennoshita Narita and Kinoshita disappear.
"Y/N!" Your eyes widen and you turn around to see the other two second years, Nishinoya and Tanaka.
"Why are just standing there?" Tanaka ask.
You look over at them as you answer "Well i-"
"You don't look too busy to me." Nishinoya huffs as he crosses his arms.
"I'm-"
Your cut off by Tanaka "Let's go Yuu, maybe Y/N will find some work to do." Nishinoya nods and both of them leave too.
In their place stands Yamaguchi and Tsukishima.
"T-Tsukki,"
Tsukishima stares down at you "Tsk, how pathetic." He brushes past you after that and disappears somewhere behind you.
You turn to Yamaguchi who seems to be in a similar state to you, his head bowed and fist clenched as tears stream down his cheeks.
You walk towards the freckled boy hands reaching out to him. "Yamaguchi..."
His head snaps up and you step back seeing the look of anger written all over his face. "You taught Oikawa how to do those jump serves," He reaches forward and grabs you by your collar "Didn't you?!"
You let your arms drop to your side as you bow your head "..."
He shakes you lightly "Didn't you?!"
"Yes," Your voice is horse when you speak "Yes I did."
Yamaguchi drops you and you fall to the floor, pain shooting up your spine.
Yamaguchi looks down at you before walking past you, a mumble of "Traitor" leaving his lips.
"I wanted to--" Your breath hitches and you turn around to see Hinata standing up behind you his stare the same as it was when they lost. Those big empty brown eyes. "I needed to--" Hinata looks over at you and you jolt. "Stay on the court!" Hinata walks over to you.
"H-Hinata," He crouches down to your height.
"You helped take that from me, senpai."
You blink at Hinata's gone.
You stand up and take in a shaky breath.
"Y/N senpai,"
"Tobio!"
You turn around expecting to see Kageyama, and you do. Kageyama's in his jersey a volleyball pressed between his palms.
"You could've helped us with receives, serves, and tosses! You could have helped us out with more of our technical skills! But no, you were too busy playing with 'Tooru'!"
"But,"
"Save it!" Tobio stalks towards you, volleyball long forgotten. "I've had enough of your bullshit!" Tobio raises his hand and your eyes widen as you recognize this, it reminds you a lot like when Tooru almost hit Tobio, but there is no Hajime here to keep from Tobio landing the blow.
Except Daichi comes from no where and grips Kageyama's wrist as he swings his arm back. "Kageyama go with the others." Kageyama glares at you before heading behind Daichi. There, a little behind Daichi, stands the rest of the team.
"Y/n," Daichi looks over to you "I think it best that you don't come back."
"Wh-what, Daichi please!" You grip onto the captains black Karasuno jacket. "You can't just abandon me!"
Daichi removes you, and keeps a straight face "As if you didn't abandon us first." Daichi turns away from you and meets up with everyone else. They walk away.
"Stop!" They continue on "Wait please!" You sink to your knees as they continue on "Don't leave me," You reach a hand out to the team that's all ready out of sight "Wait for me." You whisper to yourself.
____
You shoot up but instead of your bed, your on the floor.
You get up with a groan, "A twisted dream that was." Checking your phone to see it was 4 am. A huff falls from your lips, deciding you have nothing better to do you walk through the house before stopping at your brothers door.
Opening the door you quietly walk in to see he's still sleeping, unlike you, soundly. A stupid grin is stuck on his face and he's mumbling. Curiosity takes over and you step a little closer.
"Iwa chan~! That's cute," he's silent for a second before mumbling again "This is a date, act like it!"
A small smile comes over your face, happy to see your brother having a different emotion than sad.
You walk out of his room and go back to yours, you collapse onto your bed, your brain running over drive "Someone ain't getting back to sleep," you sigh.
***
You didn't end up getting any sleep after that so you had to resort to a cup of coffee before starting your day. Walking into the school you walk to the getabako and open your locker. Two notes fall out, one in a white envelope, the other in red. Both, however, have a heart shaped sticker holding them closed.
You pick them up and put them back in your locker, you take out your uwagutsu and switch out your shoes.
Once done you walk to your class room 2-5.
***
Your day seemed to drag on, seeing as you had nothing to look forward to, at least until there was a commotion in the hallways during lunch.
You walk to the door where some boys and girls were peeking into the hallways. "Hey," You tap on the shoulder of one of your classmates.
He turns around "Hm?"
"What's happening?"
"Oh!" He points outside the door "There's a pretty third year walking down the halls! I think she's looking for someone." He pushed yourself forward "Look!" You peek outside of the door and you recognize her. How could you not? It was literally Shimizu Kiyoko.
"Oh," You nod your head "Okay." You try to walk back inside the class room but the same guy you were talking to stops you right outside the classroom door.
"Why do you seem so unimpressed?!"
"It's not that i'm unimpressed, it's just Kiyoko Senpai."
His eyes practically pop out of his scull with how wide they are, he firmly grabs you by your shoulders.
"Oikawa san, do you know her?!"
You nod "Of course i do."
He releases you with a dejected sigh, "Of course you do."
"Y/N," You turn around and there in front of you is Kiyoko. She holds up a black and white checkered patterned furoshiki "Eat lunch with me?"
You nod your head and you step aside ushering, the now, star struck boy to do the same. He does so and Kiyoko walks into the classroom.
You show her to your desk and let her sit. Mina and Kou staring dumbfoundedly at the beautiful third year.
"Mina, Kou, this is Kiyoko senpai, a third year."
Mina nudges Kou and they both stand up before bowing 90° to both of you. "Enjoy your lunch!" The two of them grab their bentos furoshiki and chopsticks, Mina pushes Kou away who gives you a thumbs up as they both go over to Kou's desk. You feel them watching the two of you like hawks.
"They seem like fun girls, i don't suppose they're not in any clubs, are they?"
You shake your head and sit in the seat that Kou was occupying. "They both have clubs."
Kiyoko sits down with a nod. "Alright then."
The both of you eat in silence until Kiyoko speaks up. "There was practice yesterday, everyone showed but one person."
You swallow your food and stare down at your half eaten bento.
"Why didn't you help us?" Asahi
"You call yourself a friend?" Sugawara
"I was busy." You lie.
"Yeah, Nishinoya did say you had some student council work to finish,"
"We're just returning the favor." Ennoshita, Kinoshita, and Narita.
"You don't look to busy to me." Nishinoya
"Let's go Yuu, maybe Y/N will find some work to do." Tanaka
"Funnily enough, when I talked to the student council president about it, she said all your work had been completed before the inter high even began." You gulp at Kiyoko's words. You'd been caught.
"Pathetic," Tsukishima
"Traitor." Yamaguchi
"Why'd you skip practice yesterday?"
"You helped take that away from me, senpai." Hinata
"And why'd you lie about it?"
"You were too busy playing with 'Tooru'!" Kageyama
"I-i really was busy."
"Doing what?" Kiyoko prompts.
Then there was the worst one.
"I think it best that you don't come back." Daichi
You think back to what you did yesterday "Tooru!" You look up at a startled Kiyoko from your sudden shout. You lower your voice "I had to co— talk to him after his game yesterday."
"Tooru..." Kiyoko trails off "I recognize that name."
"Tooru Oikawa, my older brother. The captain of Aoba Johsai."
Kiyoko's lips spread into a thin line and you panic "I didn't tell Seijoh any of our plays or the tricks we had up our sleeves, i swear it! It's just, when it comes to volleyball Tooru's just so damn smart. And i could've warned the team, i should've told them that at least, of all things, i could've told them that."
Kiyoko places her hand on your shoulder and you stop talking automatically, "Your working yourself up." You nod "Now it makes sense as to why you seemed to calm with seijoh, it also answers the question of why you were able to get their coach to allow you to sit on their bench." Kiyoko checks her watch and nods. "We have about ten more minutes of lunch. We should finish eating."
As you eat the two of you talk about finding one last manager so you dont have too heavy a load for your third year. You also find out that in about a month the team will be going to Tokyo for a camp.
"Y/N," You look up from your lunch. "You aren't thinking of quitting the club right?"
You eat the last of your fruit, "Of course not senpai, it's just," you pause as you rest your chopsticks on your, now empty, bento. "I have some things i need to work out first."
Kiyoko wraps her bento and chopsticks in her furoshiki. "Alright then," Kiyoko stands up and you rise with her. You and Kiyoko walk to the door and you bow 90°.
"Thank you senpai."
Kiyoko gives you a small smile as she pats you on the head "Of course," Kiyoko starts to walk away but you grab her hand and tug it a little bit. Kiyoko turns back to you.
Your cheeks tinge pink in embarrassment and you let her hand go "C-could you not tell the others about the whole Tooru thing? The only people that know is Coach Ukai and Takeda sensei. Well Kageyama too but that's only because we went to the same middle school."
Kiyoko nods "Of course."
"Thank you senpai, really."
"Hey! What's this?! Kiyoko! You said you would get Y/N! Not eat lunch with him!" Both you and Kiyoko turn to see Tanaka and Nishinoya a little ways away from you in the hallway. Nishinoya being the one yelling.
Kiyoko looks at the two second years before walking in the opposite direction, going to the third year section of the school.
"Y/N!" Tanaka and Nishinoya both turn to you. Here it comes. "How come you and Kiyoko get to spend time together? Huh?! What do you have that we don't?" Tanaka questions. Not what I was expecting.
"Dashing good looks, and a personality that doesn't make girls want to puke."
"Eh?! I don't make girls want to puke!" Tanaka yells.
"Goodbye you two."
"Wait wait wait! I wanna spend time with you too!" Nishinoya yells running for your classroom.
You quickly step in and slide the door closed. Nishinoya tried to pry the door open, Tanaka joining him if the shouts from behind the door are anything to go by.
Luckily for you the bell rings and the two are sent to class. You sit back down at your desk a small smile coming over your face, Maybe i'll be at practice after school today.
