Yuji sat on his chair, for once, he was early since his alarm clock woke him up an hour before he had to. He didn't even know that he was early, therefore the male was grumbling. 'Matsumothoes' (his fanclub name) were ogling at him and he wasn't in the mood.

"Yuji! Come quickly! We're gonna see Asahi-san." Hinata said as he barged in the room and dragged Yuji. "What! Why me? I don't even know him!" Yuji exclaimed as he was dragged alongside Kageyema and the sunshine. "We need protection in case he's scary." Kageyema explained. The three made their way to the third floor, where the third years are.

"Kiyoko-san! Hello!" Yuji waved as they passed by the goddess. Kiyoko waved and gave him a smile. "Yuji-san! Good morning!" she greeted as the students around them looked at the good-looking duo in awe.

Hinata and Kageyama pulled Yuji away and the trio stood infront of 'Asahi's' class. A certain gray-haired male saw the trio and headed to them.

"Suga-senpai!" Yuji hugged him, wrapping his arms around the setter's waist. The other two sweadropped at the sight. A guy that looked intimidating walked to them. "Oh! Asahi! This is Hinata and Kageyama." Suga introduced. "And this one is Yuji, I'm sure you've heard of him."

Asahi smiled kindly at the trio. 'He looks intimidating but he's kinder than he looks' Yuji thought. "Do your best!" Asahi smiled.

"I want to be ace too!" Hinata said loudly. "So I'd like to learn from you!".

"Sorry but I'm no ace." said Asahi as he smiled sadly.
"Azumane! The teacher's waiting!"

Asahi waved and walked away. "He looks like jesus." Yuji remarked. Suga laughed at what he said. The bell rang and the four made their ways to their classrooms.

Yuji headed to the gym, beside him was Yamaguchi and Tsukishima, who decided to come with him. The three entered the gym just in time to reach Nishinoya do his signiature move. "ROLLING THUNDER!"

"Ni-nice receive." Suga complimented as Tanaka and Yuji laughed at him. "That's just a rolling receive!" Tanaka said as the two almost died in laughter.

"Why is he yelling?" Kageyama asked in confusion as Yamaguchi and Tsukishima tried holding their laughs back. "Kageyama, Yamaguchi, Tsukishima! I'll teach you all a lesson, sit down- no lower yourselves before me!" Noya yelled. "Teach me rolling thunder!" Hinata yelled as he made grabby hands.

Takeda ran in the gym, yelling that he had an announcement. "I booked us a practice match! It takes place at the last day of golden week!" he said excitedly. "It's with a famous Tokyo school, Nekoma High, they're nicknamed as 'Neko'." Yuji laughed at this. "WAH! THATS TO CREATIVE!"

"So, cats huh?" Yuji said as he smirked. "I can't wait to play." he said evilly. A whack at the back of his head interrupted his evil state. "Yah! Don't be too cocky," Dadchi scolded.

"Oh! I know them. They're coach used to know our previous one, Coach Ukai. The match between them and Karasuno was called 'Battle of the Garbage Dump'." Tanaka explained. "Are they indicating that we're trash? Cause it's probably true." Yuji asked.

"You're the only trash here, baka." Daichi insulted. An arrow shot through Yuji's chest (figuratively). 'Trashykawa's rubbing off on me.' he thought.

"Let's work hard!"
"Hai!"

Practice has just ended. The players stood at the side of the court, either drinking their water or changing their shirts. Yuji passed by Hinata and Kageyama as they were talking. "I remembered what you used to say!" Hinata yelled. He flattened his hair and made an angry expression. "I'd rather spike, receive, and toss for myself if I were to play with you." he mimicked.

Kageyama yelled angrily and grabbed Hinata's shirt while the latter was still imitating him. He threw Hinata, who landed on the passerby, Yuji. Yuji landed on his side, Hinata on top of him.

"ACK! WHAT THE- DID YOU JUST FLY?" Yuji cried as he held his side, where he landed. "KAGEYAMA THREW ME!" Hinata blamed as he pointed at the blueberry. Yuji sighed in disappointment.

Yuji grabbed his things and bid his teammates goodbye. He already helped mop the floors and was exhausted. Noya forced him to practice his receives with him. Yuji helped him with his block follow-ups.

He walked out the gym and made his way out the school gate. It was currently 6:30pm. He decided that he could do some grocery shopping first since he was slowly running out of food.

He sat in the bus stop, scrolling on Instagram while waiting for the bus to arrive. He was interrupted by a cough that brought his attention away from his phone. He looked up to see the same olive eyes and brown hair from the mall the other day.

"Uh.. You are?" Yuji asked. Ushijima's eyes widened as he saw the prodigy infront of him. 'He's good looking' Ushijima thought as he looked at Yuji who stared at him and lips pulled into a pout.

"Ushijima Wakatoshi from Shiratorizawa. I believe I saw you the other day. What school do you go to?" he asked Yuji. "That's.." Yuji paused, smirking at Ushijima. "A secret!" he said teasingly. However, Ushijima just looked at him with a straight face.

"Who are you though?"
"Ushijima Wakatoshi from Shiratorizawa."

"Oh! You're the one Oikawa was talking about. I'm Matsumoto Yuji." he said, pulling his hand out for a handshake in which Ushijima shook reluctantly. Ushijima already knew who he was. Who wouldn't know Yuji? Even if you weren't into volleyball, his looks could bewitch you to get in to the sport.

"I believe Oikawa can bring the best out of his team. He should have come to Shiratorizawa. And you're a talented one too, why didn't you go to Shiratorizawa?" he asked. "I just moved here again! I'm not familiar with any schools so I apologize. I look forward to competing with you though, I've heard alot about you through Oikawa." answered Yuji.

The bus arrived and the two got in, sitting next to eachother and unconsiously started talking about volleyball and their personal lives.

"Oh Oh! Did you hear about that new anime? Daisuke Kambe is daddy." Yuji said excitedly. Ushijima looked at him in confusion. "He's your father?"

"No! I mean he's very attractive and sexy." Yuji explained. "You can't find your father attractive, that's sweet home alabama." scolded Ushijima.

"No! I- yes. That's sweet home alabama." he sighed and gave up. The bus stopped and Yuji got off, yelling out a goodbye at Ushijima who waved at him.

The black-haired male ran to the grocery store, filling his cart with what he needed and paid. He headed home by walking, his hands carrying bags of groceries and his school bag.

"Hey, rich boy! Give me your money!" yelled a delinquent, who was accompanied by three of his men behind him. Yuji groaned and threw his head back in distress. 'I just wanted to have a peaceful walk. Is that much to ask for' he thought.

"Sorry. Come back next time, I'm a little dry right now." he lied. His bag held his wallet, which had credit cards and was stocked up with cash he just withdrawn from the ATM days ago. "Dry huh? Get him." said the delinquent.

The three guys behind him tried grabbing Yuji, only from the latter to dodge them and kicked the back of their legs, all at once. Yes daddy long legs indeed.

"Why-you!" the delinquent threw a punch at Yuji's face. His head flew to the side at the force. He smirked and cackled at the stranger. "People like you disgust me. Looking for trouble when people have more things to worry about. What would your mom say?" Yuji said with a mockingly sad face.

"Night night!" Yuji punched the delinquent, the stranger's eyes rolled at the back of his head and his body slumped down the floor. The three guys behind him looked at Yuji with terrified looks on their faces.

"W-we're not scared of you! Come at us!" yelled the one in the middle as the three lunged at Yuji at once.

A minute later, there were now four people knocked out on the floor. Yuji clicked his tongue and brought out four thousand yen bills. He chucked them at the leader's face and grabbed his groceries, walking away.

'So I was almost robbed, knocked over by Hinata who was thrown by Kageyama, slid down the steps at my own place, fell down when I met the freak duo. I'm really blessed, arent I?" he thought sarcastically.

"ACK- REALLY?" he yelped as he tripped over a pebble. He sat down the pavement with a tired look on his face.

"... I don't even know what to say anymore."
