I walked off the bus, following Kiyoko-senpai, the boys had walked off before us. Stretching my hands above my head, my back cracked making me cringe slightly at the sound. Maybe I should check that out, I thought to myself as I remembered how often my back cracked from stretching. I'll do that later, but right now I got to focus on the boys. Kiyoko-senpai went to grab something that she had forgotten on the bus so I was standing by Ukai and Takeda-sensei.

"Hey (Y/N), sensei..." Ukai suddenly said, his voice sounding grave. "You think I stink of tobacco?" He then sniffed his sleeve. "I went and sprayed this with febreze."

Takeda-sensei stared at him blankly for a few seconds before giving him a thumbs up. "Don't worry! You smell like lavender!" Ukai then went quiet and turned to me, I slowly nodded in agreement when I saw Takeda-sensei giving me a look. It took me a good two seconds to process what he was trying to convey to me and a lightbulb dinged in my head.

I can't tell him that he smells like a mix of both, I thought with a sweatdrop. "Y-You smell fine Ukai." I gave him a thumbs up along with a forced smile. "He's going to need a different scent of febreze to cover up all the smell." I mumbled harshly under my breath.

"I should have used unscented," he whispered and I shook my head, slightly disappointed with this adult.

"LINE UP!" Daichi-senpai shouted and my attention averted from the adults to the teams. Both teams lined up across from each other. Karasuno with their black jackets while Nekoma contrasted them, wearing their bright red ones. This looks intense... I thought as I glanced at both teams. I then smirked slightly when I saw the black bed haired captain.

"GWAH?!" Shoyo blurted out and I snorted. He covered his mouth and everyone gave him a curious look while I cackled in the background, unnoticed.

"Let's have a good game!" Both teams shouted and bowed down to one another.

I turned away from both teams and walked towards Kiyoko-senpai who was carrying two giant bags. "Do you need help with anything Kiyoko-senpai?" I asked and she gave me a small smile.

"Can you help me with the other bag?" She asked and I nodded, taking the other bag from her. "(Y/N) you're going to be taking notes on Nekoma, okay?"

I nodded. "Got it!" I smiled at her. "Be prepared, my grades and school notes may be shit, but my athletic knowledge and notes are top tier!" She giggled lightly and I felt my heart clench. So cute! We both then started to walk towards the gym and another Ryu-senpai looking dude glanced at us.

"HUWAAH?!" he shouted, looking shocked. Kiyoko glanced at him and nodded, making him flustered. I swore I saw lightning striking down at him. I smiled at him, making it a critical hit as multiple lighting bolts struck down at him. "Fe-fem... Mana... Beau... Oooo.."

"Alright they've got two female managers! Haagen-dazs!" two players from Nekoma said from behind the mohawk guy and they high fived, making me assume that they just won a bet.

"I'LL REMEMBER THIS DAMMIT!" He shouted in tears before running away and into the gym. I laughed, he sort of reminded me of someone.

Kiyoko-senpai and I walked into the gym, as most of the players were still outside. Setting down our bags onto the bench I looked around the gym, it was pretty big. "Oya? (Y/N) is that you?" a voice said from behind me and I smiled at the male.

"Hey Tetsuro-senpai, nice to see you again." I nodded my head at him and he smiled.

"Didn't think you were a crow," he said and I gave him a closed eye smile. "I guess you knew we were playing against you guys."

"Yep. I can't wait to see you guys play." I then looked behind him and saw his team coming in along with Karasuno. "You should probably go to them now."

"Of course, see you later." He gave me a small wave before he turned around and went towards his team.

Kiyoko-senpai glanced at me and I shrugged my shoulders, a wry smile on my face. "Met him when I was looking for Shoyo."

"Ah, makes sense," she replied and went towards the players while I walked over to Ukai and Takeda-sensei. When I reached them they were talking to a man around their age, he was wearing a red and white tracksuit of Nekoma with the words 'coach' on it.

"(Y/N), come here," Ukai said and I stood next to him. He put a hand on my shoulder. "Naoi this is (Y/N), Karasuno's student assistant coach. (Y/N), this is Naoi Manabu, a former rival and a coach of Nekoma."

"A pleasure to meet you Naoi-san," I greeted and bowed down to which he returned the greeting.

"Ooh, if it isn't Keishin! You've got a face like an old man's, same as always!" a voice said from behind Naoi-san and I went pale as I realized who it was. I quickly hid behind Ukai, making him raise an eyebrow at me.

He shrugged it off. "It's been a while Nekomata-sensei."

Hearing his name, Takeda-sensei stood straighter. "I-I'm Takeda, the one who spoke with you on the phone! Thank you very much for today!!"

Nekomata put his hands on his hips. "It's all 'cause of those persistent calls of yours! There's no way we wouldn't come after all that!" He cheekily smiled. Takeda-sensei apoligzed for causing trouble and Nekomata laughed at him. "Just kidding! We were able to have some good practice matches these past three days too. Let's have a good game today."

"Yes, let's!" Takeda blurted out nervously and I sighed. He was too nervous and fidgety.

"...Even if Ukai's grandpa isn't our opponent. We won't show any mercy you know," Nekomata said and he and Naoi both competitively smirked. I chuckled and Nekomata seemed to notice me which made me flinch. "Well well well, if it isn't (Y/N)! I haven't seen you in a long time, how are you kid?"

I averted my gaze and stopped hiding behind Ukai. "I've been fine." I scratched my cheek and gave him a sheepish smile. "How about you Gramps?"

"Gramps?!" the three shouted and I nervously chuckled while my grandpa patted my head.

"My nephew is married to (Y/N)'s oldest sister," gramps explained and I nodded. "I've babysat and been with (Y/N) a few times when she was younger. How's Ryouta doing? You two never contact me anymore."

I gulped, I should contact him more often. "Sorry Gramps, during middle school we were pretty busy," I explained and he nodded. "Ryouta is doing good, he's at Kaijo now and unsurprisingly a starter on the basketball team."

Gramps laughed. "You twins have always been amazing at sports, though I am shocked to see that you aren't playing anymore." I shrugged my shoulders. "Do you plan to play at all during your three years at high school or no?"

I frowned slightly. I was unsure of whether I would play or not, especially after that incident. "No clue," I answered, feeling frustrated in a way. "We will have to see in the future."

"I see." He solemnly smiled. "Well, we will talk more after this game, okay (Y/N)?" I nodded and he ruffled my hair before walking away with Naoi-san.

Ukai and Takeda-sensei both had their gazes locked onto me and I felt a shiver go down my spine. "I didn't know Gramps was coaching Nekoma... Haha..."

"Whatever," Ukai said and waved a dismissing hand. "Let's get those boys ready."

A/N : I'M SORRY FOR SUCH A SHORT AND BORING CHAPTER!! I planned to make this chapter the Nekoma vs Karasuno practice match, but I have been so busy with school and all this homework and group projects my teachers gave me. Like I got so much work due this week and next week that I need to start and I'm crying #suffering. I didn't want to give you guys nothing so I gave you this shitty filter chapter (>.<') sorry!

The entire next chap will be the practice game, I promise! 

Anyways, I added a little of my touch this chapter and decided to make Nekomata and (Y/N) related in a way since I wanted to add more spice. In KNB, Kise has 2 older sisters and so I was like, yeah why not make one of them married to a nephew of Nekomata. So bam! Family! Also the entire next chap is gonna be in Third POV cuz I find it easier writing action scenes in that POV.
