"Thank you so much for agreeing to come with us to the practice match today Y/n!" Your brother's arm falls over your shoulder as he pulls you closer to avoid a puddle on the concrete path. You were both currently on your way to the schools gym as today was a very special day for the volleyball team, the powerhouse school, Aoba Johsai otherwise known as Seijoh agreed to play a practice match with the new team, just as long as Kageyama is the setter. Much to your brother's disappointment but he was very good at hiding his emotions so no one ever took any notice but, you on the other hand, always knew when something was wrong.

"You know you can talk to me Koushi...I know how much you secretly want to play in this match..." a strand of hair falls in front of your eyes so after withdrawing your hand from your pocket you tuck it behind you ear, only for you to then return your hand to the pocket of your jacket that read 'Karasuno High School' on the back. Daichi insisted on giving you this jacket as you practically spend all of your free time at school in the gym with the team so he said "it's basically like you're part of the team so please, take this", to which you reluctantly accepted.

"Hah...you always were very good at reading me like a book..." he sighs and takes his arm away from your shoulder to put it in his pocket as well. "I don't mind sitting on the side lines for now because I'm extremely grateful that we have this opportunity..." he gaze fixates on the orangey-blue sky as you both continue to walk down the street. "But when it comes to future games I want to play a part in them too...even if I'm only on for a few seconds I don't care...I'll do everything in my power to keep the teams spirit up and making sure the ball gets over the net..." a proud smile forms on his face and he finally refocuses on the path in front of him, allowing him to miss yet another puddle.

"You're so wise Koushi..." you lightly punch his arm but are roughly pulled towards him again.

"Y/n watch where you are going!" He succeeds in preventing you from getting soaked once again. After realising how close you were to falling face first into a huge puddle you can't help but laugh at your clumsiness. "Yeah haha very funny, if you get wet I'm not giving you my extra clothes"

"I promise to be more careful so don't worry!" You pinch his cheek and plant your feet back on the ground before returning to your original walking pace.

"Right is everyone here?" Takeda-sensei questions as he continuously switches his focus from the clipboard in his hand and the team who were sitting in front of him on the gym floor. He then began to read out the register but you, being in your own little world were not focused on what was being said, your head was in the shadow of worry.

How many people will there be?
Will I stand out?
If I stick with the team, especially Koushi and Nishinoya then I should be fine...
Right?
I'll be fine! Trust the team! Everything will be okay!

"Y/n wake up!" You snap out of it only to see Nishinoya shaking your shoulders with a face of worry. "You okay? What happened?"

You place your hands on top of his and tap them, "y-yeah I'm fine I just zoned out..." a red hue forms on your cheeks, Noya notices this and automatically removes his hands from you.

"Sorry about that...but are you sure you're okay? I don't want you to come if it's going to cause you too much trouble..." pure concern is the only emotion you are able to gain from his behaviour, nothing else in the world matters to him right now apart from your well-being.

"Come on guys the bus is waiting!" Hinata runs over and jumps in the air, using Noya's shoulders to hoist himself up further.

"Let's go?" Noya turns to you and asks earning him a nod with a little smile from you.

✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* 　　 *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

You had just walked on to the bus after placing your bag in the outside storage locker and when you walked on you felt a tap on your shoulder, you turned around and saw Yamaguchi rubbing the back of his head.

"Yamaguchi are you okay?"

"Yeah I was just wondering if you wanted to sit next to me as the rest can be quite chaotic" you look around to see which seats are available.

Hinata was at the back with Tanaka, Noya and Kageyama was a seat in front of them.

Koushi was sat with Daichi along with Asahi and Ennoshita behind them.

Narita and Kinoshita were on the opposite side to Asahi and Enno.

The second to last person you saw was Tsukishima sitting all by himself, he was also looking somewhat empty and you presumed this was because his best friend was not present by his side. Still being quite frightened of Tsukishima, you decide to sit next to Kiyoko as Yachi couldn't come to this match.

"Sorry Yams..."

"It's okay I understand, I was just offering!" He flashes a reassuring smile as he walks off to his blonde friend.

"Hello Y/n-Chan"

"Hiya Kiyoko..." you were still uneasy about being around her as she was overwhelmingly beautiful and she had a heart of pure gold.

"Don't worry, If anything happens and the boys can't help you out then I want you to know that you can come to me for help!"

She's so consoling...
She reminds me of Koushi in a sense...

"Y/n?"

"Ah! Oh y-yeah that would be really helpful!" Awkwardly, you smile and have many failed attempts at connecting your earphones to your phone but on the fifth, you finally make the connection and are able to calm down.

That was so embarrassing!!

After the bus journey which took around thirty minutes, you found yourself standing in front of a huge building with other many detached sections. "Okay everyone, grab your things and head straight to the gym!" Takeda-sensei cheerfully yells and signals for us to get off the bus quickly as we must not be late.

Being punctual is key in his eyes.

Another short walk later, and you now stand in the gym used by a well-known power house school, its size and utilities only making it seem all the more impressive. "Okay team get to the court to place your stuff down and then you have around twenty minutes before the other team get here!" He claps and everyone disperses accordingly.

Finally, the moment they've all been waiting for arrives.

Their first practice match in a long time.

Come on guys...

✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* 　　 *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

They did it.
They won.
And now their presence will be known to other power house schools too, stories spread like wildfire in the world of sports.

Your thoughts are shattered to pieces by a short orange-haired boy bowling towards you, "Y/N-CHANNN! DID YOU SEE THAT? I WAS LIKE BAM THEN SWOOSH AND THEN FINALLY IT WAS LIKE WHAPPOW!" You couldn't help but giggle at his over-excitement but it was more like a mini laughing session as you couldn't stop and eventually a few tears brimmed in the corners of your eyes.

Koushi couldn't believe the sight that was laid out before him. His sister who was always worried about being judged for the way she looked and acted was laughing like there was no tomorrow. The last time he saw you like this was when you were young and he couldn't help himself but to smile at your giddy form.

"Is that Angel I hear laughing?" The Libero leans against the silver-haired setter as he spots you still laughing but managing to form words with Hinata and Yamaguchi.

"It sure is...I haven't seen her openly laugh like that in so long...it's so nice to see..." Koushi's eyes are now the ones to well up as a tear of joy glides down his pale face.

"Suga are you crying?" The captain appears out of no where and pulls his best friend into a hug, patting him on the back whilst laughing to himself.

"Let me have my moment" Koushi sobs and starts to laugh as well and soon enough the whole team are standing outside of the bus either laughing their heads off or only just breaking out into a smile. Surprisingly, for once even Tsukishima was joining in on the fun.

I can't wait to make more memories with this group...
