Waking up at 6am the next morning Hina forced the team to go for a morning jog as a warm up.
So all the girls lazily got up jogging in the warm Tokyo breeze as we all attempted to keep ourselves awake.
"I love Hina but really 6am runs?! I don't see any other team doing the same," Akari whines as myself, Sakura and her were all jogging together down the street Hina at the front but of course with her amazing hearing shel locks her deadly gaze at the vice captain.
"I heard that Akari! Don't make me put extra time!"
I only laugh in response as the third years eyes widened before muttering words under her breath.
"Anyways Ren what's up with Nekoma? Especially the captain," She asks curiously looking in my direction.
I let out a small sigh as I think back to her teasing last night. "Basically when at Nekoma Kimura convinced almost all of them that I was the bad person in the situation. As for Rin, she's best friends with the girl which is why she hates me so much. Oh and because I had a good chance at taking her spot as captain the following year."
"So what I'm getting at here is that they're all jealous of your success and use your father as an excuse to it," Sakura speaks up stunning both Akari and I.
"Yup basically."
"Wow Sakura I didn't think I would ever hear anything intellectual come out of your mouth," Akari's retorts only to receive a slap in the head from her.
"I swear to god though if that girl tries to steal Iwaizumi from you I won't hesitate to beat the crap out of her."
"Amen to that," Sakura raises her hand.
I only stay silent as we continue to jog till I suddenly feel a presence beside me to which I turn to see Ito.
"We still need to talk Naka," She sternly says as she kept her eyes out in front of her.
Just the seriousness in Ito's tone made me to believe that she had something important to say.
"Yeah we do. Let's taβ"
"I bet I can beat you in a race!"
"You're on boke!"
We're the voices that cut me off and caught us four attentions as we all glanced to see the familiar orange and black haired boy glaring at each other.
"Aren't those the first years from Karasuno that have that crazy quick attack?"
I let out a sigh at the two deciding to jog towards them. "I'll be right back."
Hinata catches my gaze his glare now turning into a smile as he waves at me frantically.
"Naka-Senpaiii!"
At the boys words the setter turns in his direction for his eyes to widen slightly at the sight of me.
"Hi Hinata-Kun! Hi Kageyama-Kun!" I smile back at both boys. "What are you both doing up so early?"
"Well I came to go for a morning jog till I saw this boke here and he said that he could run faster than me," Kageyama grumbles as he glances at Hinata.
"Which is not true! We both know I'm faster!"
"No!"
"Yes!"
"No!"
"Yes!"
'It's like an endless cycle with these two,'I thought to myself about to stop the fight till a loud voice did so for me.
"Oi why are you two shouting at each other in front of your senpai at 6 in the morning!" Daichi yells to which the two boys and even me shriek in response.
"G-gomen captain!" The two stutter as they bow quickly completely flustered.
"Hi Naka-San how are you?" The third years once cold dementor turns into a gentle one.
"I'm good just forced by my captain to go for a morning run, how about you?"
"Oh well I knew these two idiots would be out here in the morning so I got the rest of my team to go for a run as well," Daichi responds hitting the two at the back of the head.
"Oi Ren why did you leave the rest of us!" A voice yells to which I look back timidly to already see Hina glaring at me.
"U-uh I was just asking the Karasuno boys if they wanted to join us in our run."
At my words Hina glanced from me to Daichi who she hadn't noticed to which her face flustered up embarrassingly.
"O-oh well that's if they're okay with it," She stutters slightly looking at the other captain.
"That's fine with us. Guys let's jog with the girls!" Daichi calls his team who were sluggishly walking towards the four of us.
"Girls?" Both Tanaka and Noya straightened up eyeing our team with gleaming eyes.
"Like they would ever go for you two," Tsukki retorts bluntly to which they cry in response
With that we continued our run with the Karasuno boys.
"Who knew you could get flustered," I couldn't help but tease Hina who only nudges me hardly in response.

"Okay so the way these rotations will work is that two different schools will be paired up together in different drills meaning there will be 4 teams total for each drill. You will never be with the same team as we want you all to get to know each other better," Coach announces as everyone was gathered up in the gym.
"Ugh were going to have to deal with No Assikawa the entire day," Akari mutters under her breath but of course the setter hears her quite clearly.
"Hey I heard that Miyazaki-Chan! I'm not even that bad to handle!" He whines looking to his for backup team who only eyes him warily knowing his words were a lie.
"Oh well all know that's a lie!" Akari retorts to which the two start bickering.
"It's like watching two children," Mattsun mutters Hanamakki nodding his head in agreement.
"That's your captain and best friend huh," I laugh quitely turning from Oikawa to Iwaizumi who only lets out a sigh in response.
"Sadly."
"Okay now before both of you start aruguing like babies let's see which school we're paired up with first," Hina interjects snatching the paper away from Oikawa who pouts in response.
Please don't be Nekoma. Please don't be Nekoma.
"So so it seems that us and Nekoma are paired up first."
"Just great," I mutter understand my breath to which the boy beside me instantly notices my change in emotion.
"Guess we're with you guys first huh," A voice speaks up to which we all direct our attention to see non other than Kuroo grinning widely at us the girls team right beside them.
"Wait Naka-Chan it's your old team!" Oikawa exclaims to which I mentally facepalm.
"Oi shut up baka!" Akari smacks the back of the boys head, "Just how are you even in college preparatory classes."
"Alright boys and girl I see that you all have met!" A voice suddenly exclaims to which has come from Nekoma's boys team coach. "So of course we'll be doing some volleyball based training but beforehand I want you all to know the most important aspect when it comes to the sport and that is trust."
"When on the court, no matter what position you must trust your teamates to which will lead to a big victory."
"So with that each of you will pair up with a player from the other team and will complete trust falls with one another to which you will rotate to someone else once you have completed trusted that so call person."
Trust falls?
"I will be pairing you up at the start then we'll rotate from there."
All the players had been confused at the drill but still obliged as they had trusted coaches words knowing that there would be some sort of a positive from this.
Thankfully I wasn't paired with any of my Nekoma teammates at first but unlucky at the same time as I was with the biggest of the entire group.
"Ooo Naka-San we're together first!" An excited Lev rushes towards me to which I couldn't help but smile back at.
"Funny how one of the shortest gets paired with the tallest. I honestly don't think that you can catch me Naka-Senpai so I have no trust in you," The boy bluntly admits to which left you stunned.
"Coach can we switch partners Lev is bullying me about how weak I am."
The small male glanced at you before looking back at his clipboard, "No."
"Haha have fun with that Naka-Chan," Kuroo hysterically laughs to which I stick my tongue out at him in response only for him to fall to the ground as Akari did not catch him.
"As cute as you are don't make fun of my best friend," She laughs at his pained state giving me a thumbs up.
"Okay Lev I'm going to do this. We are athletes after all."
"Yeah but that still doesn't mean that you're not weaβ"
"I swear to god Lev if I hear one more bad thing said about me I won't hesitate to drop kick you," I glare at the first year who only shrieks slightly back in response.
Who knew his senpai could be so scary at times he thought to himself.
Surprisingly I was able to barely catch the boy for a few seconds before giving out and dropping him on the ground gently.
"Okay your turn!" I smile brightly at him to which he weakly gets up from falling preparing his arms for me to fall into.
Of course with how tall and strong the Russian boy was I fully trusted him to which I regretted as he basically let me fall to the ground but I was able to put my hand out from falling hard.
"Oi what was that for?!"
Lev snickers in response as he looks at someone to which I avert my attention to see a grinning Kuroo.
"Oh I am going to kill that boy."
And with that the trust falls continued as we rotated between players.
There was quite the awkward tension with my old teammates who only glared at me the entire time. But that is till I got to Ino.
"Ino! The one person on the team that doesn't hate my guts! I've missed you!" I hug the girl who returns the embrace happily.
"Why would I ever hate you Naka-Chan! You were always such a great mentor and friend to me last year," She laughs as she pulls away from my grasp.
"So how's Nekoma anyways?" I ask curiously.
"It's alright. Rin-Senpai is a good captain but she can be a bit demanding at times. Between me and you I miss captain from last year. Was hoping though to have you as a captain next year but with the circumstancesβ"
I only smile in response not wanting Ino to feel bad for her words as her eyes widen slightly in regret. "Yeah it sucks but I'm happy here with my new team."
As if on a cue I hear a small laugh come out of the familiar voice and turn to see Rin smiling at Iwaizumi as she put a hand on his shoulder.
"Hey you okay you're going a bit pale Senpai?"
"Huh oh yeah I'm fine let's continue," I avert my attention from the two to Ino giving her a small smile.
As the two of us talked I couldn't help but glance once in a while at Iwaizumi and Rin as he actually seemed to enjoy her company?
The sound of the whistle broke me out of my trance as we were with the final people of the trust falls to which was of course Rin.
"Hi Ren," Rin smiles at me to which I only glare in response.
"Aww why the annoyed look, am I really that much of a burden to you?"
"Yes," I mumble and notice as her eyes twitch in response at my bluntness.
"You know Ren you really have to help me get with your ace friend Iwaizumi-Chan, we seem to have lots in common. When Himari mentioned him to me I didn't think much of it but boy was I wrong," She continues as she waited for me to catch her.
Of course Himari mentioned him to Rin.
Oh how I was quite tempted to not catch just there. But with not wanting to catch any attention I quickly caught her before pushing her back up.
I then cautiously moved in front of her as she continued babbling about god knows what.
"Such an interesting drill to do with us huh? All about trust. I never had much trust in you to begin with Ren when we played together at Nekoma. I mean you did lose for us at finals," Her voice laces with venom as I knew for a fact that she wasn't going to catch me so I pull her down with me.
I was now basically on top of Rin stunning her slightly as my hands gripped her wrist.
"What are you trying to get out of this Rin?" I grit out as my hold tightened.
"Just trying to make you look like the bad person," Was all she had as she had a smug smirk on her lips.
"Oi what are you two doing?! Nakamura get off of her," The voice of coach catches me off guard to which I quickly let go of her wrist getting up.
What I hadn't noticed was that everyone from both schools attention were on the both of us.
"Okay now that we're done with the drill Nakamura can you got grab all the volleyballs in the gym locker room," Coach eyes me.
"I could help toβ"
"Only Nakamura," He cut off Akari his same stern look on me.
I only nod in response avoiding all gazes as I walk away from the group.
Of course I could feel the glares her teammates were giving me as I passed by them.
"Glad her dad left so that she could leave too," I could barely hear come out of one of their mouths to which I I only tightened my fist feeling my nail pierce through my skin.
I honestly didn't know how much longer I could take being with Rin as I wanted to punch the girl every minute.
