These are thoughts

~~~

Mizuki pov.
I lie on the floor, out of breath.

"I'm so tired!" I complain.

"How many sets did we play?" Ennoshita asks, who was standing beside me.

"Five, I think." Narita replies.

"I TOLD YOU WE'D BEAT YOU!" Bokuto cheers as he makes his way here.

"Yeeeeeeeep." I sit up.

"I mean, it was still a close match." Konoha adds.

"Ya. You guys almost caught up." Komi nods.

"That means we're getting better." I mumble, putting my hand at my chin. "That's good."

Akaashi extends his hand to me. I take it and he helps me get up.

"Thanks Kaashi" I thank him.

He simply nods.

"Hey, Zuki" Kageyama calls me. "Can we work on the quick attacks?"

"Ya, sure." I say back to him. "I'll be there in a sec."

"Kaashi, d'you think this would count as laps?" I ask.

"Not sure. You could ask coach Nekomata." He replies.

"Oh, ya. True. Well, I'll see you later!" I jog over to Nekomata.

"Coach Nekomata? Do we have to run the laps?" I ask.

"I guess not." He nods. "Since the other teams aren't here."

"Okay. Thanks!" I bow.

"You did great when you played. You definitely got better." Nekomata chuckles.

"Really? Thanks!" I beam.

"You should get back to practice now."

"Oh ya. Thanks again, Coach." I bow and I walk over to Kageyama.

"Took you long enough." Kageyama says.

"Shut up. I'm here now, so let's start." I take a volleyball and I go to the back.

Kageyama goes to his spot, and we start practicing.

Time skip to dinner
~~~

I sit with the rest of the team while we eat.

I eat my rice and I think to myself.

...should I prank Tetsu? I mean, that would totally be fun. Wait, I haven't seen Spencer around...

I stuff my mouth with food and try to finish quickly.

"Zuki, maybe you should slow down." Suga says from beside me. "You might choke."

I wave him off and finish everything.

"Disgusting." Tsukishima rolls his eyes.

I ignore him and I drink most of my water.

"I'm done." I say as I stand up. "I'm gonna check on Spence."

"See you at the dorms later then!" Yamaguchi exclaims.

I walk behind Tsukishima and I dump the rest of my water on his head.

"What the hell?!" He yells.

I smirk and shrug.

I drop my dishes off and I gead outside. I walk to the office beside the parking lot.

As I walk in, Daisuke greets me.

"Good evening, Mizuki!" He smiles and waves.

"Evening, Daisuke." I walk up the the counter.

"What brings you here?"

"Just wanted to check on Spence." I look down the hall past the desk. "Is he here?"

"Yup, he's in his room." Daisuke replies. "He's got a few things to do. Maybe Spencer'll be available tomorrow."

"Oh. Okay." I nod, a little disappointed.

"So, whatcha doing?" I peek over the desk and look at his computer.

There's a bunch of files everywhere.

"Just covering some stuff." Daisuke says. "Gotta make sure that everything is okay here."

I nod. Then, his phone starts ringing.

"I'm gonna go." I say to give him some space. "See you tomorrow!"

"See you, Mizuki." He waves and picks up his phone.

I head back to the dorms.

Welp. I guess I'll just check tomorrow.

Once I go to the team room, the futons were already set up. My bag is there already too.

Kageyama, Hinata, Kenma, Yamaguchi and Noya surround Tanaka. He's playing some video games, probably on Kenma's console.

"Wow." I sit beside Kenma. "You actually let some other people play on your console."

"...shut up." He mumbles.

"Hey Zuki?" Yamaguchi moves beside me. "Could I tru playing that game again?"

I remember showing him how to play one of the video games I have.

"Oh, ya sure!" I crawl to my bag and I take my laptop, headphones and mouse out.

I set everything up, and I pat the spot beside me. Yamaguchi joins me there.

"Here." I scooch over and he takes my spot.

"Do you remember how to play?" I ask.

"I think so?" He smiles unsurely.

I show him the controls again, and he starts to play. I watch from beside him.

"Go go, get that guy." I cheer him on.

After a few minutes, he ends up losing.

"Awwwww shoot!" Yamaguchi whines.

"That was close though." I punch him lightly on his arm. "Wanna play again?"

He nods and joins another game. I continue to watch.

After what felt like only a few minutes, the third years come in.

"It's almost time to sleep." Daichi says.

"It's only nine though!" I complain.

"Zuki, it's nine fifty-three." Asahi adds, sweatdropping.

"That's still way too early though." I say.

"Mizuki." Daichi says, a dark aura starting to surround him.

I flinch and give in.

"Okay okay, fine." I sigh. "Just let Yams finish this round."

Once he does finish, and and won, I put my headphones and mouse away. I connect my charger to my laptop and I keep it beside my bag.

Kenma takes his console too, and leaves.

"See ya tomorrow Kozu!" I call him.

"Bye Kenma!" Hinata exclaims.

He shyly waves back and heads to Nekoma's room.

After that, I get ready to go to sleep.

I lay in my futon in silence. The others start doing the same.

"Goodnight everyoneeeeeee!" Nishinoya yells.

"Will you just shut up for once in your life?" Tsukishima complains.

"I will once you get shorter, you four eyed skyscraper!" He yells back.

I plant my face in my pillow, trying not to laugh.

"I can hear you Mizuki." Tsukishima says.

"Four eyed skyscraper!" I start laughing even more.

"Mizuki, calm down." Daichi calls. "Nishinoya, Tsukishima, stop arguing."

"Yes sir." The blond mumbles.

"Anyways-" Tanaka starts.

"No." Ennoshita stops him.

"I didn't even say anything!" He protests.

"Knowing you, it would've been something stupid." Kinoshita comments.

"Hey!"

"Guys, stay quiet." Asahi stammers. "You'll make Daichi mad."

"I can hear you, Asahi." Daichi comments.

"Goodnight everyone! Now shut up before Daichi kills anyone." I say.

"...Mizuki-" Daichi starts.

"Goodnight Daichi!" I reply innocently.

Thankfully, everyone stays quiet.

And after a few minutes, I fall asleep.

Time skip to the next day
~~~

The next day, we had practice like the first day.

Every team, Fukurodani, Nekoma, Shinzen, Ubugawa and Karasuno, were gathered in gym 1. We start to play matches against each other.

I watch from the sides as we play against Nekoma.

Daichi, Suga, Hinata, Narita, Asahi and Tanaka are on court right now.

"How many wins do we have?" I ask Ennoshita.

"Out of the ten we played, we won five." He says.

"That's half of them." I think. "We're definitely improving!"

I tap my foot on the floor repeatedly. "When can I go back and play dammit."

"Well, this might be the last, since lunch is in a few." Kinoshita replies.

"Awwwwww, c'mon!" I complain.

The two chuckle. After we win the match, we head to the caf to eat.

I only take an onigiri and a glass of water. I join Fukurodani at their table.

"Is that all you're eating?!" Sarukui exclaims.

"Ya." I shrug.

"You should have some more." Onaga says.

"Here." Konoha pushes his plate to me. It has another onigiri, and some fruit.

"No, I'm good." I shake my head. "Thanks though."

"You should take some, at least." He insists.

I sigh and I take a strawberry from his plate. Then, I stand up.

"Thanks." I bow slightly. "I'm gonna walk around a little."

"See you later then." Komi says.

I put my plate and my cup away. Then, I go outside and to the office.

I open the door and I look around. Daisuke wasn't sitting at the desk, like he usually would.

...I guess he's not here? Oh wait.

A small note was on the desk.

I'm currently not in the office right now. I'm with some others to get a few things. I'll be back in about an hour.

-Daisuke

Oh. Welp, that sucks. Maybe Spence went with him...? Dammit.

I walk back to gym 1. As I go in, some people were already warming up, so I join them.

A few minutes after that, we start to play again.
