It was a beautiful day in Japan. It was summer time, the summer heat kicking in and the cicadas buzzing. Some family members were visiting during this time in the country. The two parents and their only child walked out of the airport and made grabbed themselves a taxi before making their way to another family member's house to stay at for a while. As the young adult looked outside the window, they slowly made it to their destination. The taxi parking in front of the house, the three exited the car, grabbed their luggage, and made their way to the house. Gently knocking on the door, a female with a soft expression and black hair opened the door, only to let them in with a welcoming smile. Entering the house, the five of them started to catch up with one another, a smile on all of their faces.

"Oh, Y/n-Chan, Kotaro is at his volleyball practice so he'll be coming home a little later" the woman said with a smile.

The h/c haired girl only returned the smile with a nod. "I see, does he know about our visit?" she questioned.

"He does, but he doesn't know when since I'm guessing you want to surprise him. You two are close"

"Ah, thank you auntie" the girl said, still keeping her smile. "I'll wait for him til then. Do you know when he comes back?"

"He should be back around five or six" the woman said. The girl nodding as she thanked the older woman, she excused herself and decided to walk around the house.

Slowly walking around the house, she made herself at home as she looked at the picture frames that were either on a small table or hanging on the wall. Taking in a deep breath with the nostalgic smell she hasn't smelt in years, a smile crept up to her lips as she stopped in front of a door. Opening the door, it revealed a very messy room. An unmade bed with some clothes scattered as posters of volleyball and a few universities were pinned on the wall. She smiled to herself and sat herself down on the computer chair, her feet barely touching the floor. Noticing a book on the wooden work desk, she picked it up and opened it at a random page, reading whatever page she came across on.

After reading a single page of the book, she closed it and looked at the title. It was called Snow Country. She smiled before setting the book down before noticing a picture frame on the desk. Picking it up, she looked at it. It was a picture of her and the energetic male she called her cousin when they were younger. A small memory came back to her mind, remembering the scene when they were getting their picture taken. The smile staying on her face, she set the picture frame down gently before getting up and deciding to clean the room up.

The young girl folded her sleeves up and tied her hair up before started to pick up the clothes and put them in a basket that was in a corner by itself. Cleaning up some small messes like the desk and bed wasn't a problem as she finished cleaning the room within a few minutes. She smiled proudly to herself at the now clean room before exiting the room, closing the door softly behind her. She made her way back to the adults only to see that two of them were missing. She had an idea where they were and made her way to the kitchen, only to see them cooking dinner.

"Would you like some help?" she questioned. The two looked over at her and her mother nodded with a smile.

"Go ahead and wash your hands. After that come and help me cut veggies"

"Hai~" the girl chimed. Quickly washing her hands, she made her way over to her mom and started to help out cooking.

~Mini Timeskip~

The three ladies had finished up cooking dinner, and right on cue, the person they were waiting for had made it back from practice.

"I'm home~" he chimed, a bit exhausted from practice. The young girl quickly dried her hands before exiting the kitchen to go greet her cousin. Making her way to the front door, she was greeted with a tall, buff male with silver and black mixed hair. She looked up at him and smiled softly.

"Welcome home, Kotaro-Kun" she said happily. The male's eyes widened before he had a wide grin on his face and engulfed the girl in the hug.

"Y/n-Chan!!!" He exclaimed loudly. She chuckled before hugging him back, getting a big whiff of his sweat making her nose scrunch up. Pulling away from the hug she punched her nose in a playful way before smiling.

"Why don't you go take a shower first? Then we can catch up" she considered making him nod excitedly. He quickly left to his room as she watched him with a small chuckle coming out from her mouth. Walking over to the dining area, where the kitchen was connected to as well. She sat herself down, an empty seat next to her. Soon enough, the high school boy quickly made his to the kitchen with wet hair as he sat down next to his cousin. Without a warning, he started to ramble to her about his volleyball club.

Y/n was used to it. The boy was always more energetic than her, it was hard to believe that they were actually related by blood. They were total opposites yet got along so nicely. When either one visits the other, it was always Bokuto to start the conversation. That was their daily routine when the two got to visit one another, Bokuto would ramble to her about the things he did while she just listened to him. Of course she would always talk about her time away from him, but his were always more fun to listen to.

"Neh~ Kotaru, stop bothering Y/n-Chan and let her eat." Bokuto's mother scolded her son who only started to pout.

"Wah~ But mo~m" the boy whined. "We barely get to see each other and talk with one another because we're so busy~"

"You can talk to her tomorrow"

"But I have school tomorrow!"

"Then you can talk to her when you get back and on the weekend."

"I have the excursion happening this week though, remember?"

"Why not I just go with you then?" You questioned, looking at the male. "If I'm able to come that is! I don't want to cause you any trouble!" You quickly said. He turned his head and grinned at you.

"Good idea N/n! I'll have you meet my team as well!" He exclaimed. You nodded, giving him a soft smile.

"Alright then. I'll be cheering you and your team on when that day comes!" You said, obviously excited. He nodded, excited himself before you two quickly finished your dinner and decided to go to his room and listen more about his stories about volleyball.

~The Day Of The Going Away Practice Match~

You were woken up by your cousin as you slowly sit up, yawning a bit.

"Kotaro?" You questioned

"Come on Y/n! Hurry and get dressed before we become late! " he quietly exclaimed. You nodded tiredly before he left your room so you could change. You decided to wear a white t-shirt with some sweats before you hurried out of your room. Bokuto was waiting for you as you quickly put on your shoes before leaving the house. After a small walk, you both stopped in front of a house.

"Everything alright Kotaro-Kun?" You questioned

"Yeah, we're just picking up a friend!" He said before pulling out his phone and started texting someone. The door to the house you stopped in front of opened only to reveal a male with black hair and a stoic face. He walked over to the both of you as your cousin waved at him frantically with a big smile. "Akkaaaaassshiii!! Good morning!!" he exclaimed.

"Good morning Bokuto-San. Please be a little more quiet, you'll wake up the neighborhood" the male named Akaashi said. Bokuto nodded with a grin before taking your hand and pulling you over.

"This is my cousin! Y/n-Chan!" he said with a big grin. You smiled at the tall male before bowing.

"Bokuto Y/n, it's nice to meet you" you said before straightening yourself as he bowed back.

"Akaashi Keiji. It's nice to meet you too" he said before straightening himself as well. The three of you started to walk to the academy which didn't take too long. The three of you walked onto the school grounds before making your way into a gym.

"Hey hey hey!!! We're here!!" Bokuto exclaimed making the others stop to greet them til seeing you.

All eyes were on you. Multiple questions were going through the others' minds. Who are you? Who are you to Bokuto and Akaashi? A family member? A girlfriend? A new manager maybe? The stares continued, making you a bit uncomfortable and shy. You got closer to Bokuto, hiding yourself behind him a bit making him notice.

"Hey hey hey!" He chimed with a smile before gently nudging you to reassure you that it's okay which only made you stop hiding a bit to introduce yourself. "This is my cousin! She'll be coming along with us!" he exclaimed, now having a grin before you bowed to the others.

"Bokuto Y/n, nice to meet you all. Please take care of me!" you said before standing straight and smile at them. They all nod and greet you before going back to setting everything up. You watched Bokuto and Akaashi start helping out too, making you want to do so as well. You walk over to one of the girls with a soft smile. "Is there anything that I could help with?" you questioned.

The girl looked over at you and nodded with a smile. "Yeah, do you think you could help me set up the nets?" she questioned. You nodded, keeping your smile before the two of you started to set up the nets. "So you're Bokuto's cousin?" she questioned you, making you nod.

"I am"

"I'm kinda surprised. You seem so calm and quiet. While he's over here being all loud and energetic" she said. "No offense!" she quickly said, looking over at you. You only laughed a bit, looking over at her.

"No you're fine. We get that a lot, since he's so energetic you would think that it would run in the family. But I don't mind, someone like him being so happy all the time is nice" you smile at her making her nod.

"Ah, I'm Suzumeda Kaori by the way! It's nice to meet you Y/n-San!" she smiled at you.

"It's nice to meet you too!" you exclaimed.

The two of you hurriedly finished putting up the rest of the volleyball nets before taking your time to talk. Another girl had came over to talk as well, her name being Shirofuku Yukie. The volleyball boys started to do their warm up stretches as other teams started to enter the gym, doing their stretches as well. You watched in amazement, seeing how tall everyone was.

"How many schools are coming?" You questioned Suzumeda.

"There's usually three coming, but this time there's four" she said "It's usually Nekoma, Shinzen, and Ubugawa. But I heard that coach Nekomata invited another school, Karasuno"

"Didn't Karasuno make a name for themselves recently?" Shirofuku said making Suzumeda nod.

"Yeah. They used to be known when Coach Ukai was coaching, but after he retired Karasuno lost it's spark" you continued to listen to the two managers of Fukurodani talk about Karasuno. Unknowingly, you caught someone's attention.

"Hey, Bokuto" a certain bed head called out to his friend. The owl looking captain turned his head over to his cat looking friend.

"Yeah?" he questioned.

"Who's the girl over there?" he questioned "A new manager for your school?" he asked making the boy shake his head.

"Nope! It's my cousin. Her university is letting the students take a break so she and her parents thought it would be a good idea to come visit us" Bokuto said, looking over at you.

"So she's older than us"

"Only by a year"

"So we're not that far apart. Yet she seems so much more mature than you" the rooster head teased.

"Wha- Hey! I can be mature!!" the owl head yelled. The two friends started to bicker to one another as another school came in and started to warm up. After the two captains were called back by their team, the captain of the cats continued to look at you. Now you've really caught his attention.

All four schools were now at Fukurodani, all of them playing another school. Everyone was focused, well...Almost everyone. The captain of Nekoma keeps messing up. Either jumping at the wrong time, being a bit slow with saving the volleyball, even getting hit in the face by it. All of this was because of one single girl. He couldn't keep his eyes nor mind off of her, well, except when he's getting yelled at by his coach. Even though the captain kept messing up, their team was still able to win.

"Everything alright Kuroo?" Yaku questioned his captain.

"Yeah, I just have something on my mind" the captain reassured, glancing at h/c haired girl who was cheering on Fukurodani. The libero followed the taller male's gaze only to notice the girl as well. Looking back at his captain and then the girl, he smiled, chuckling a bit as he patted the boy's shoulder.

"Good luck" he said before walking away. The taller male was a bit confused with those words, but shrugged them off as they rotated teams, the team he's been waiting to play for a while now, Fukurodani.

"I heard you were messing up a lot" Bokuto said with a smug look. Kuroo only smirked.

"Yeah well, I won't mess anymore, now that there's someone watching me that I need to impress"

"What does that mean?" the silver and black haired male asked, raising an eyebrow as the black haired male's smirk only grew.

"You'll see" he said making the other male suspicious. The two teams got into position and Fukurodani hit the ball over the net to the other side. Both teams were focused. Kuroo took one more glance at the girl who was watching in amazement before it was his time to shine. Everything was going smoothly. He was finally hitting the ball, jumping on time, and saving the ball on time. He was using every trick he had up his sleeve to get her attention, and every time he would glance at her to see if she noticed him, she was only looking at Fukurodani with astonishment. He let out a 'Tch' before one of his teammates noticed and slapped his back.

"Don't worry prince charming, we'll get her to notice you" Yamamoto said. Kuroo looked over at him and grinned, nodding a bit. Soon, everyone was at their best just for their captain. They continued to keep winning a point. It was to the point that Bokuto started to get into one of his mood swings which caused his teammates to stop passing the ball to Bokuto. But they all knew, especially Kuroo that it was time for Bokuto to shine again, well, that's what he thinks. Akaashi set the ball to the moody ace, calling out his name. Bokuto quickly made a run for it before jumping up to hit the ball with all his force. But Kuroo had other plans. He quickly jumped up in front of Bokuto, a smirk on his face as Bokuto noticed him last minute. But it was too late, Bokuto had slammed the ball with his hand. Everything went in slow motion, everyone watched as....

The ball hit Kuroo straight in the face as he fell backwards from the impact. Some of the Kuroo's teammates tried to stifle a laugh as Kuroo's face was now a bit red from the hard impact of the ball. Bokuto started to laugh as well as Kuroo sighed.

"Are you okay?" a female voice questioned. He looked over at the voice, only to make eye contact with beautiful e/c eyes. Since he had to look up at her, the light hit her perfectly, almost making her seem like an angel...no, she was an angel.

"Yeah I'm fine" he said with a smile before she gasped.

"Your nose is bleeding! Hurry, lets go to the infirmary!" she said, she took his hand, gently pulling him up as he chuckled and got up from the ground. She handed him a few tissues before she started to lead him to the infirmary. They were wandering around the hallways a bit. She was in front of him as he noticed that she was much smaller than him. He also noticed that they were lost.

"I'm guessing you don't know your way around the school" he said.

"N-no! I do!!" she exclaimed. He noticed her cheeks becoming pink making him chuckle. She soon came to a halt. "I...I don't know where the infirmary room is..." she said, obviously embarrassed. He only chuckled before he started to lead her to infirmary, both of them still holding hands.

They were now in the infirmary as Kuroo was sitting on a chair while Y/n was getting everything she needed. She came back with a first aid before she gently pulled Kuroo's hand away that had the tissue to stop his blood from going everywhere. As she was doing her magic, Kuroo studied her features more. Taking a closer look, her eyes were a very beautiful e/c that shined in the light. Her hair was a silky h/c even though it was tied into a messy ponytail. After she was finished, she made eye contact with him, noticing that he was staring at her.

"I um...I finished bandaging your nose..." she said, trailing off.

"If I've known that all it took to get your attention was to get hurt, I would've done it before" he said with a chuckle. She was a bit surprised by his words. "I'm Kuroo Tetsuro" he said.

"Bokuto Y/n" you said with a smile.

"It's cute" he complimented. He noticed her cheeks turning a light pink before he went for it. "I like you" he blurted out. It surprised her even more. Running his words through her mind her face became red as she averted her eyes from his.

"W-we've barely even known each other! How could you be so sure that you like me?" she questioned. He grabbed her hands and gently brought it to his lips, not breaking his eyes away from her.

"Because you caught my heart the moment I saw you"

Extra:

Kuroo and Y/n were staying in the infirmary room for quite some time now. They were getting to know each other, unaware about the people watching them. When the two were about to kiss, the others just had to ruin the moment.

"YEEAAAHH GET SOME KURROOOOO" Yamamoto yelled. The two stopped from the almost kiss as Y/n turned red and hid her face.

"Shut up! You just ruined the moment!!" Yaku scolded the wing spiker. Kuroo only sighed looking at them.

"HEY HEY HEY KUROO IS THIS WHAT YOU MEANT BY IMPRESSING SOMEONE" Bokuto yelled, barging into the room. Soon, chaos started in the room, the two lovers not having the peace and quiet that they wanted. And it won't be the last time they get interrupted.

A/n : I am, SO SORRY. This is my first time ever making a one shot so this one was pretty long. Hopefully as I make more I'll get the hang of not making a novel within one chapter. That's all I have to say. I hope you enjoy! ^^
