         It was hard for Y/n to get out of bed because they knew that the person they spent their whole life with was not going to be outside the door waiting for them, like they used too. It was frustrating because all Y/n wanted to do was share their happiness with their best friend. Slowly dragging themselves out of bed sighing and stretching then glances out their window to see the sun starting to rise. 

      “I wonder if he’ll talk to me today…” A sharp pain strikes Y/n’s heart at the thought of Ushijima not being outside or worse not speaking to them again. With a loud sigh Y/n starts their day heading down and making themselves coffee. Opening their front door they did not expect to see anyone there but to their surprise Semi and Tendo were waiting outside for them. Their heart dropped a little but they were happy to see their friends outside their door. 

      “Morning!!” Tendo sings. 

      “You’re too loud Tendo. Morning Y/n.” Semi says while rubbing his eyes.

      “Morning.” Y/n looks back into the house and shouts. “I’m off.”

      “How did you sleep?” Semi asks scratching the back of his neck. 

      “I slept okay.” Y/n nods.

Ping. 

      Y/n looks at their phone to see a morning message from Sugarwara. 

     “Is that the setter?”

     “Yeah he’s really refreshing to talk too.” Y/n muses. 

     “Oh Mr. Refreshing, I like that.” Tendo hums. 

       After school, Y/n was close to tears on their way to the gym when they spotted a certain silver haired setter leaning against the gym entrance. 

      “Sugawara?! What are you doing here? It’s not friday yet.” Y/n asks shuffling closer, stopping right in front of him. 

     “You said you weren’t having a good day so I thought maybe if you’re free we could go for coffee?” 

      “Ah… I have practice right no-,” Y/n mumbles.

     “Yahoo~” Tendo says walking up behind Y/n looking at Sugawara. 

     “Oh hi! I’m Sugawara from Karasuno.” Sugawara smiles at Tendo with his hand extended. Tendo takes it and gives it a firm handshake. 

     “What are you two up too?” Tendo sings.

    “I was just asking Y/n if they wanted to go out for coffee but they said they had practice. So I can just wait.” Sugawara smiles and Y/n perks up at the suggestion. 

    “No no no. I’ll cover for you today Y/n but let me talk to mr. refreshing first.”

    “Really Tendo?!?!?” Y/n beams at him. 

    “Yes, you guys should go to my love cafe,” Tendo nods satisfied. 

    “Love Cafe?!?!?!” Sugawara says flustered. 

    “Yeah don’t worry about it! Y/n knows where it is!” Tendo slinks his arm around Sugawara’s shoulder and looks at Y/n. “Why don’t you go get your stuff?” 

    “Okay.” Y/n smiles and runs off to get the rest of their stuff. 

     Meanwhile, Tendo’s soft smile turned into a frown as he looked at Sugawara. He takes his hand off and leans against the wall crossing his arms over his chest. 

     “You’ve created a lot of problems for us, Mr. Refreshing.”

     “Huh? I’m sorry I don’t know what I did.” Sugawara frowns as his brow furs. 

     “I’m sure you don’t but I feel bad so I’m going to give you a little bit of advice. Y/n is in love with Ushijima but is too dense to see it. The same can be said for our Miracle boy. They are both so bad at seeing their feelings.” Tendo hums and Sugawara nods. 

     “I had a feeling,” his smile completely drops as he continues. “Y/n talks mainly about Ushijima-san but I’m not ready to give them up. They're amazing. If Y/n leaves me for Ushijima I will completely understand and I won’t hold any bad feelings towards them. But with the way Ushijima is handling the situation he doesn’t deserve Y/n. I just want Y/n to be happy if that’s with me or with Ushijima. I want to help them but I’m not going to give up.” 

     “You’re not a bad guy, Mr. Refreshing. But you are going to get hurt in the end or you are going to hurt Y/n.” Tendo says patting his shoulder and walking into the gym. 

      A few moments later Y/n walks back out. They run up to Sugawara with a big smile. 

     “Are you ready to go?” Sugawara smiles at Y/n who nods enthusiastically. 

     “The cafe’s just around the corner! It’s also not called the love cafe but it is a cat cafe. Tendo calls it that cause the cats give you unconditional love.” Y/n clarifies and Sugawara chuckles nodding.

     “He’s a good friend.” 

     “What did you two talk about anyways?” 

    “It’s a secret.” Sugawara grins placing his finger over his lips. 

    “That’s not fair.” Y/n pouts and laughs after. 

    When they arrived Y/n got them a table while Sugawara ordered coffee for the both of them. The entire time they were there Y/n talking about Ushijima and their past reminiscing about all the things they use to do with each other. Sugawara could see how much it was hurting Y/n everytime they talked about the past and then realising that it’s changed so much. For a few minutes Y/n sat there silent in the head, wondering why everything changed. Sugawara sat across from them studying them. 

    “I’m really a selfish person.” Sugawara sighs staring at Y/n who looks over at him. 

    “You’re not selfish.” Y/n says reaching out and grabbing his hand. Sugawara gave it a tiny squeeze. 

      “Yes I am.” A sad sigh leaves him as he stares down at a cat looking to climb into his lap. Sugawara backs up a little giving the kitten room to jump on. “What a cute little kitten?”

      “Yeah.” Y/n smiles. 

     After Sugawara dropped Y/n off at their house he pulls out his phone and calls the only person he trusted with this situation. 

     “Suga?” 

    “Ah Daichi? Did I wake you?”

    “No. What’s up? I’m just doing a bit of homework.” 

    “I just wanted to run something past you.” 

    “Ok shoot.”

          “Morning Y/n,” Semi says approaching a seriously pissed off Y/n. Y/n said nothing to Semi just glared in his direction and clicked their tongue. “Where is Wakatoshi?” Y/n’s glare deepened as they continued to walk in the direction of the school. As they approached the school Y/n and Semi both spotted Ushijima standing there talking to Tendo. Y/n took off their left shoe and threw it at the back of his Ushijima’s head. A look of shock plastered Tendo and Semi’s face freezing them in place. 

         “You arrogant jackass!” Y/n screams approaching Ushijima who was rubbing the back of his head. “You couldn’t wait! Huh?! You’re that upset! Fine!” Y/n picks up their shoe and slips their foot back into it. A few people gathered around to watch what was happening. “What are you all looking at?” Y/n glared at the crowd and made their way to class. 

          “What did you do, Ushiwaka? I’ve never seen Y/n that mad before.” Tendo worriedly looked at Ushijima who’s scowl was growing deeper by the second.

          “Tch… annoying,” Ushijima mumbles and walks to his class. 

         “This is not good.” Semi and Tendo watch as Y/n and Ushijima walk separate ways. “I thought he was going to be nice to Y/n?”

          “I can’t believe Y/n threw their shoe at his head!!” Tendo laughed remembering the shock and confusion on Ushijima’s face. 

         “They really have a good arm.” Semi snickers. “We better get going before we are late for class.” 

        “Do you think they will be okay?”

       “They have to be…” Semi mumbles with an uneasy tone. 

       Walking into the classroom Y/n sat down in their seat and rested their head on their desk. Sniffling trying to stop the tears that were threatening to fall. ‘What did I do?’ 

       “Y/n? Are you okay?” A familiar voice asks tapping their shoulder. 

        “Oh, Yamagata. It’s you. I’m fine.” Y/n says resting their head back down. 

Bzzzzz. Bzzzz. Bzzzzzz.

          Y/n pulls out their phone and looks at the contact and shoots up. 

         ‘Sugawara 😍’ 

         “Well, you sure perked up,” Yamagata says startled. “Is it Ushijima?” Y/n glares at the mention of Ushijima. “Not Ushijima got it,” Yamagata says, raising his hands up in defense. “So who is it?”

         “His name is Sugawara. He’s from Karasuno.”

        “Bleh.” Yamagata feigns disgust. 

        “You’re such a jerk. He’s really nice. We have a date this Friday.” Y/n smiles while responding to his morning text. 

        “Well tell him if he hurts you I’ll break his wrists.” He nods while staring at Y/n satisfied. 

        “No, you won’t.” Y/n hums. 

        “What is this I hear about a date~,” Tendo says leaning down next to Y/n. Startled Y/n jumps a little in their seat and Yamagata laughs. 

       “Class is about to start. Please quiet down you three.” The teacher says looking at Y/n, Tendo, and Yamagata. 

       Tendo sits behind Y/n in his seat and leans forward whispering?

      “So he finally set a date?”

      “Yeah Friday.” Tendo watched the soft smile that settled on Y/n’s face while an uneasy feeling filled him. Y/n started to tell Tendo how excited they were about the date. All Tendo could think was ‘Is this really a good thing?’  

       The bell rang for lunch and Y/n groaned and laid their head down on the desk for the second time today. 

       “Come on Y/n we're going to be late for lunch,” Yamagata says, pushing their shoulders. 

      “Go without me… I’ll meet you guys there.” Y/n unconsciously sighed while looking at their lock screen. A picture of them laying on Ushijima with Storm on their phone screen. “ Why are you acting like this?” Y/n asked, with a groan, they stood up and stretched while looking at the door. ‘Should I even go to the cafeteria?’

      “Y/n? What’s taking you so long?” Semi peaks his head in and makes his way over to Y/n who plopped themselves back down in their chair. “That bad huh?” Semi asks, pulling a chair towards Y/n’s desk. 

      “I just don’t know if it’s a good idea for me to go wherever Toshi is right now. I think he’s mad at me but I don’t know why.” Y/n sighs putting their head in their hands. 

      “Well, that sounds like a him problem wouldn’t you say…”

      “Huh?”

      “Well you're friends with everyone else at the table so you can’t just not come. Everyone is worried about you… so get up and let’s go before the whole team comes to find you.” Semi grabs Y/n’s arm and drags them up with him. Y/n groaned but complied and walked to the lunch room with Semi dragging them. 

      “Oh Y/n!! You’re here!” Goshiki says making room for them to sit next to Ushijima and him. 

     “Hi guys,” Y/n smiles and sits in between Tendo and Semi which everyone thought was odd but no one questioned it. 

     “I heard you threw a shoe at Ushijima’s head.” Shirabu cautiously asked. 

     “I did.” Y/n deadpans. 

     “And it hurt too.” Ushijima mumbles. 

     “It was meant to.” Y/n rolled their eyes. 

     “Now now you two no fighting.” Semi says giving a stern look to Ushijima. 

     “Yes mom.” Y/n rolls their eyes and starts stuffing their face with the meat buns Tendo placed in front of them. 

      “Oh Y/n tell us more about this guy you have a date with on Friday.” Yamagata perks up.

       “Y/n?!?!? Has a date?” The team asks no all looking st Y/n. Ushijima’s head snapped towards Y/n when they said that. 

       “You have a date?” Ushijima asks finally lifting his head and looking at Y/n.

       “Yeah, Friday.” Y/n says taking another bite out of their meat bun holding eye contact with Ushijima. 

        “Tch.” He looks away and goes back to eating. The entire table went quiet. 

        “I thought you and Ushijima were dating.” Goshiki says. 

        “We aren’t dating…” Ushijima snaps and Goshiki flinches. 

        “You didn’t have to say it like that,” Y/n says watching the interaction. 

        “Tsk.”

        “You’re so annoying today…” Y/n frowns and crosses their arms. 

       “You’re annoying.” Ushijima answers. 

       “Okay okay. Stop before you say something you regret.” Semi says panic clear in his voice. Y/n gets up and leaves with a few meat buns in hand. Tendo and Yamagata followed closely behind. 

        “Childish.” Semi scoffs looking at Ushijima. 

        “Eita, I am not in the mood.”

        “You are acting like a child Wakatoshi. Just because Y/n like someone other than you doesn’t mean you can act like this. You are in the wrong here. Not Y/n. You.” With that Semi gets up and storms after Y/n. Ushijima sighs and places his head in his hand. 

        Ushijima sat there with his head in his hands trying to figure out what was wrong with him. 

       ‘What is wrong with me?’ ‘Why am I acting like this?’ ‘I shouldn’t have said that.’ ‘But listening to them talk about him makes me mad.’ ‘I don’t like this feeling. I don’t like it one bit.’ ‘I hate this. Y/n is mad at me but I keep saying the wrong thing.’ ‘I am an idiot.’

       “Ushijima-san… please don’t be mad but you are being kinda mean to Y/n. Did something happen between you two?” Shirabu cautiously asked. 

      “No.” Ushijima answers and sighs. “I seem to be in a disagreeable mood lately. Don’t worry. We should be fine soon.” 

       Meanwhile, Tendo and Yamagata caught up to Y/n who was crying and furiously wiping their eyes. Tendo looks at Yamagata concerned. 

       “Hey wait up!” Semi shouts and a look of relief flushed over Tendo. “Y/n don’t cry!” Semi says startled as he cautiously approaches. 

       “I-I’m s-sorry,” Y/n sobs hugging themselves to help them calm down. “I just don’t know what I did wrong!” Y/n sniffles. 

      “Ahh. I don’t think it’s you.” Semi mumbles patting Y/n’s shoulder. Y/n sniffles and looks at Semi, Tendo and Yamagata with sad eyes. The three boys just looked at each other with a look of concern for their friends. Y/n wiped their faces from the tears and started making their way towards the gate. “Uhh, Y/n where are you going?” Semi asks nervously. 

       “I’m going home… Today has been a lot…”

      “What about practice?”

      “Cover for me?”

       “What?!?! You can’t just skip!! Coach will have your head!” Yamagata worriedly says chasing after Y/n. 

       “Please,” Y/n pouts looking at their friends with sad eyes. “I just want to go home and sleep.”

       “You can’t just run away from your problems Y/n.” Semi sighs crossing his arms over his chest. 

      “Just for today, Eita. Please.”

      “No.” Semi’s eyes slightly shut as he looked at Y/n who sighed. 

      “Y/n~. Don’t be sad! You won’t have to spend anymore time with he who shall not be named. I promise. So let go to class~”

      “You guys suck,” Y/n pouts but links arms with Semi and Tendo. 

      “No we don’t.” Yamagata says patting Y/n’s head. 

      “Maybe you don’t.” Y/n rolls their eyes and chuckles. “Do you guys know why he’s mad at me?” Y/n whispers. 

       “I don’t think he’s mad at you. I think he’s mad at himself.” Semi smiles reassuringly at Y/n. 

      “Why won’t he talk to me?” Y/n’s grip around their arms tightened. 

      “He probably doesn’t know how to tell you.” Tendo hums. 

       “What is he even mad about?” Yamagata asks as Tendo and Semi scowl at him for asking a hard question. “Ahh nevermind it’s probably not important.” 

      “I just want my bestfriend back.” Y/n mumbles looking down at the ground. Semi and Tendo shared a knowing look and then looked back at Yamagata.

        Y/n laid on their bed staring up at the ceiling anxiously looking at the ceiling replying their day, trying to figure out why Ushijima was ignoring them. 

       “This is so annoying!” Y/n rolls over and screams into their pillow.

Pinnnnng.

         Y/n’s first thought was ‘is that toshi?’. Y/n immediately grabs their phone and brings it to their face. The blue light illuminates there room as the name ‘sugawara 😍’ popped up on their phone. 

‘Hey y/n! How was your day?🥰’ 

‘I’m not having the best day 😔’

‘Oh really? Hold on!’ 

Bzzzzz.

Incoming call from ‘sugawara 😍’. 

        Y/n wondered why he was calling but still swipe to answer.

      “Hello.” Y/n says hesitantly.

      “Oh good you're not crying. Do you want to talk about it. I’ll listen.” Y/n could hear the soft smile on his lips and smiled to themselves in return. 

     “You really don’t have to do that. I’m sure it’ll work out.”

     “Shh now. It’s not good to good to keep things inside. Tell me about you're day.” Suga chuckles on the other side.

     “It was really sucky. I woke up in such a good mood too. Then Toshi and I walked to school then he decided we were going to run a marathon. It seemed like he was in a bad mood so I didn’t want to push him you know?” 

      “Mhmm.” Suga says shaking his head in agreeance. 

      “Then he wouldn’t speak to me and I don’t know why. I don’t know if I did anything wrong. Looking back at my day I can’t figure out what I did to upset him but he didn’t speak to me and he ignored me all day. He didn’t even wait for me after school and we alway walk home together. My parents were confused because they are so use to us walking home together. I asked him why he was ignoring me at practice and started to cry because he kept saying he wasn’t but that’s not true!”

    “Okay, okay, okay. Take a breath.” Y/n takes a deep breath and Sugawara’s smile slowly grew as he continued to fold his laundry. “Okay continue.”

      “Well that’s really all besides I bought him his favorite drink to cheer him up because everyone on the team was worried and he just shoved it away. Lunch was so awkward and I didn’t know what to do to make it better. That was my day.”

      “Y/n you're amazing you know that.” Sugawara hums through the phone and Y/n’s cheeks heated up.

     “How is that?” 

     “Well you went out of your way to buy Ushijima a drink because he was in a bad mood. You also tried to talk out the problem multiple times and you stuck by his side even though he was ignoring you. Sounds like an amazing person to me.” Suga giggles.

     “You're wonderful. You know that. You just know the right things to say to make my day better. Also thank you for listening to me. It made me feel better.” Sugawara face reddened and he dropped the shirt he wasa folding at the complement. Sugawara stood stunned for a minute then cleared his throat.

    “It really was no problem. I do this all the time for my teammates.”

    “Wow that’s amazing. You must be really trustworthy for everyone to come to you with their problems. Who do you talk to about your problems?”

    “Well no one really…”Suga laughs. 

    “That won’t do. I told you what was troubling me so tell me what’s troubling you.” Y/n demands.

    “There really isn’t anything bother me,” Suga smiles.

    “As a wise man once told me ‘It’s not good to good to keep things inside. Tell me about your day.’” Y/n smiles to themselves glad they turned the tables around our him. Suga laughs through the other side and Y/n just thinks ‘you're laugh is angelic’. 

     “My day, well I had to wake up at five am-”

     “Five am?!?!? That’s so early!”

     “Yeah our first years practice a lot! Kageyama and Hinata never stop practicing and I need to work on my setting too.”

     “Wow you dedicated!” Y/n smiles. “You must be a really good setter and that’s why they keep you on the side. You’re just like Semi!” Y/n enthusiastically says.

     “Yeah,” a strained laugh came through the phone.

     “What's wrong?”

     “Oh it’s nothing,” Sugawara answers.

     “There’s obviously something wrong,” Y/n replies rolling there eyes. 

     “It’s just that Kageyama is better than me. He can bring out the best in people-”

     “Let me stop you right there. That’s the kid who was yelling at the springy boy right?”

    “Yeah.” Sugawara laughed at the way Y/n described Hinata. 

    “Well he reminds me of Shirabu. They are both very good, yes. No doubt. They can get the ball where ever they want and at it’s highest impact which is amazing don’t you think?”

    “Yeah.”

    “But… When you or Semi steps out onto the court it’s like a reset for everyone. The atmosphere is calmer and everyone just want to win and have fun! I’d say that’s pretty powerful would you?”

      “Yeah! You’re right!”

      “Yeah I am! Plus from the way that the first years listen to you i’d say they respect and cherish you a lot don’t you think. It seemed like you just brightened the mood for everyone. Out of that entire practice match you, that little springy boi and the middle blocker were the one who stood out to me the most.”

     “Really? I alway feel like I’m invisible to the everyone.” 

     “That’s not true at all!” Y/n looked over at the clock and wondered how it got so late. “We really should be going to sleep.”

     “Yeah. It’s already 11:30! How did that happen?” Sugawara laughs. “What are you doing Friday after school?”

    “Hmm. Oh nothing!”

    “Good, do you want to go to the bakery with me and i’ll walk you home so you aren’t lonely.”

     “That sounds great!”

     “Then it’s a date!” Sugawara smile grew when he said that. “Well goodnight text me tomorrow anytime and I’ll answer.”

     “Same go to you! If you want to talk I’m here! Good night.” 

     “Okay goodnight.” 

      With that they ended their call and Y/n hugged their phone close to their chest and squealed. Meanwhile Sugawara hung up with a gigantic smile on his face and couldn’t stop looking at his call log with Y/n’s name on it. 

     “They are going to be the death of me,” Sugawara sighs. “How did I get so lucky?”

      Earlier at the Ushijima household, Ushijima was laying on his bed angry. Tendo and Semi face-timed him to see how he was doing. 

     “Miracle Boy Wakatoshi~” Tendo sings.

     “You left without Y/n…” Semi says glaring through the phone.

     “They’ll be fine.” Ushijima rolls his eyes.

     “They looked really sad.” Tendo inserts.

     “What is wrong with you? Did something happen with Y/n? Why are you acting like a child?”

     “Eita, nothing is wrong with me.”

     “You called my by my first name just now which means you are upset.” 

      “Leave me alone,” Ushijima sighs and runs a hand over his face. “I don’t want to talk about it.” 

      “You’re acting like a child, Wakatoshi. And in the process you are hurting Y/n.” Semi slowly says emphasizing every word he says in a warning tone. 

     “You talking to me like my mother Eita.”

    “You’re being dumb Wakatoshi-Kun~” Tendo sings through the phone bobbing his head in and out of the frame. 

    “I am not.”

   “Then tell us what’s wrong! We are your friends you know?” Semi huffs.

   “Tch. You sound like Y/n. That’s annoying.” Ushijima glares at Semi through the screen. 

    “Is Y/n annoying you?” Tendo asks confused and astonished. 

    “No not Y/n themself but the thought of Y/n is annoying…” Ushijima sighed looking at the two boys with sad eyes. 

    “You look really sad Wakatoshi,”Semi says laying his head down on his arms still in frame. 

    “I’m annoyed and the person I want to talk to is the person I’m annoyed with and I don’t know what to do..”

     “Talk to them,” Tendo says finally joining the conversation. “Y/n was pretty sad all day you know. And they kept trying to think of things to do to cheer you up but you hurt them you know. I don’t think I’ve ever seen you refuse something from Y/n before but you definitely hurt them by pushing it away even I could see that.” 

    “I know…” 

       After a long pause Semi sighed and lifted his head up.

      “I’m going to ask you a very important question Wakatoshi, okay?”

      “What is it, Eita?”

      “How do you feel about Y/n?”

      “I don’t understand the question. Y/n’s my best friend. I’ve known them since I can remember.”

      “Okay we know that. But how do you feel when your with Y/n is it the same like Tendo or Me?”

     “Well no… Y/n’s different. Everytime I’m with them it’s like the first time I hit a spike past three blockers I guess. It’s a different feeling. I never know what Y/n’s going to do or say. There like Satori in that sense but it’s different. More interesting. But now it just hurts… Everytime I see them it hurts and it feels like my whole body aches and I don’t know what to do. What do I do?”

     “Well you need to figure out what Y/n means to you before it’s too late…” Semi says with a sad look in his eyes. 

     “Who’s the first and Last person you think about Ushiwaka~”

    “Y/n.” Ushijima says without taking a second to think.

     “Like an old married couple~” Tendo jokes and semi rolls his eyes with a smile on his face. “Semisemi please burn that shirt I thought you got rid of it already!”

    “Satori leave me alone. This is a nice shirt. It is fashion you wouldn’t understand since you have none.” Semi scoffs.

     “I’m going to sleep. See you two in the morning.” Ushijima sighs. “Don’t stay up to late we have practice in the afternoon.”

    “Yes Sir~. Be nice to Y/n tomorrow Kay~”

   “Night also listen to Satori about Y/n.”

   “Okay.” With that Ushijima hung up and rolled over in his bed pulling his pillow over his head. 

    It was another sleepless night for Ushijima with him tossing and turning the entire night trying to sleep. All night he kept imagining Y/n and Sugawara doing the things they use too. Talking all night long, going to the convenience store and lastly holding hands. That’s the thing he didn’t like the most was the thought of Sugawara comforting you how he does.

      Outside of Y/n’s house stood Ushijima in one of the worst moods he’d ever been in before. He leaned against the fence waiting for Y/n to come out. Shuffling out of the house Y/n waves to Ushijima and yells back saying goodbye to their parents. 

      “Morning, did you sleep well?” Y/n asks hugging Ushijima.Ushijima nods in response and hugs Y/n back with a heavy sigh. They start to walk and spot Semi. 

      “Semi you should really just walk with us! We alway meet each other when we walk.” Y/n chuckles. 

      “No one wants to intrude on your dates.” Semi rolls his eyes. 

      “We aren’t dating.”

      “Says the person who has a dog together.” 

      “Don’t bring Storm into this!?” Y/n feins disbelief. “We found him together as kids and decided to share him. Right Toshi?” Ushijima just nods in there direction. 

      “Are you feeling okay Ushijima?” Semi leans forward and looks at Ushijima. Ushijima just nods. 

      “Toshi you sure?” Y/n asks concerned he didn’t speak. Ushijima simply nods again and quickened his pace. Leaving Semi and Y/n to follow him almost running. 

       “What’s wrong with him?” Semi asks Y/n who shrugs concerned watching Ushijima walk off. 

      When they arrive at the gate both Semi and Y/n lean there handds against there knees panting for air. 

      “Did you guy run here,” Tendo laughed and was glared at by the pair who were still trying to catch there breath from the marathon they just walked. 

      “Why…” Y/n pants. “Why were we going so fast today?” Ushijima without answering just walks away leaving the trio confused. 

      “Did you two do something to upset him?” Tendo asks.

      “Not that I know,” Y/n say finally able to breath again. 

      “We were walking like normal then he started to ignore us, I think? Y/n what happened before I got there.”

      “Nothing. It was the same as every morning. Maybe he just had a bad night? But he didn’t say anything when he came over this morning.”

      “Maybe he just missed having you in his bed~” Tendo jokes.

      “Tendo now is not the time for jokes.” Y/n says while Semi and Tendo share a pondering look before shaking their heads. “I can’t believe you guys actually thought about it. I don’t sleep over at his house all the time. Only when my parents are away. Stupid.” 

      The bell rang and Ushijima sat in his seat staring out of the window and watched as Y/n and Semi walked out to the field for warmup. He could see they were talking and laughing. Ushijima sat there in head thoughts all of Y/n and his current predicament.

       ‘I wonder what they are talking about?’ ‘It’s probably something to do with that new setter.’ ‘Maybe Y/n likes Semi too since he looks like he could be his twin.’ ‘Why do I keep thinking about Y/n and that setter from Karasuno.’ ‘What was his name again?’ ‘Sawamura, no, Sugamura, no, what was it?’ ‘Why can’t I remember Y/n wouldn’t stop talking about him after he texted them.’ ‘has Y/n ever talked about me like that?’ ‘I thought I saw every side of Y/n. Have I not?’ ‘Why does this part of Y/n seem annoying? Why do I feel this way?’ ‘Sugawara, that was his name. What an annoying name.’ ‘Does Y/n like people with silver hair?’ ‘If I dyed my hair silver would Y/n talk about me like that?’ ‘What was so exciting about that text anyways?’ ‘Does Y/n get that excited when I text them. No. I’ve never seen it.’ ‘Ugh why does it feel like I’m losing them?’ ‘Is Y/n going to spend more time with Sugawara then me?’ 

        “Tch.” Ushijima clicks his tongue in frustration. “What an annoying thought.” Ushijima glares at the chalkboard growing more and more irritated as the day went on.

         When lunch came around Ushijima was in a miserable mood and everyone could tell. Y/n came hoping in with Tendo while holding a convenience store bag hung around their wrist. Y/n spots Ushijima and smiles, waving at him, he looks over and scoffs then goes back to eating his food. Y/n’s smile was replaced by a concerned look as they approached the table. From behind Ushijima Y/n placed a Peach soda in front of him which he just pushed in front of Goshiki. Everyone looked at Y/n who looked like a wounded cat.

         “I guess you’re still upset then.” Y/n bite their tongue and sat down next to Semi and Tendo who’s concern was growing by the second. No one spoke at the lunch table to scared to say anything with the current mood of Ushijima and Y/n. Goshiki never touched the Peach soda and it just stayed there even after they had all left. Y/n didn’t even drink there cherry soda. Once in a while glazing over to Ushijima who never lifted his head to look at anyone. He sat here eating his food with a scowl on his face. After what felt like an eternity the bell finally rang. Y/n looks over at Ushijima and sighs.

        “I hope you feel better soon.” And with that the table disburses and heads to their respective class.

        When Y/n got to the gym they spotted Ushijima practicing his spiking with Shirabu. As Y/n walked in shirabu asked for a second to tie his shoe which was the perfect opportunity for Y/n to talk to Ushijima. 

         “Toshi… hey! Toshi… Wakatoshi… Ushijima... hey… are you mad at me?” Y/n asks growing more and more frustrated. “Wakatoshi Ushijima stop ignoring me.” Y/n glared at Ushijima which made him slightly more agitated. 

         “Are they fight?” Goshiki asks from the door frame. 

         “This isn’t good,” Semi glups looking to Tendo who is shocked. Ushijima said nothing but glared back at Y/n. Y/n clicks their tongue and turns away to help the other manager finish tie the net. 

         “You’re so annoying today.” Y/n glares at him. 

         “A little lovers spat~” Tendo jokes.

         “Shut.” Y/n says while both Ushijima and Y/n glare at Tendo. 

         “Up.” Ushijima finished. 

         “Testy testy.” Tendo says as Y/n goes back to doing there job as a manager. 

         “What do you think is going on?” Goshiki asks looking between Y/n and Ushijima. 

         “I don’t know but whatever it is it isn’t good.” Semi mumbles and Y/n clicks there tongue and marches back over to Ushijima and drags him out of the gym. 

         While outside Ushijima glared at Y/n. While Y/n stood tall with there arms crossed in front of them. 

        “What is wrong? All day. All day! You’ve been ignoring me! Did I do something wrong? Just tell me already!” Tears started to build in Y/n’s eyes as they yelled at Ushijima. With a heavy sigh Ushijima pulled Y/n into a hug. 

         “Don’t cry.” He says rubbing small circles on there back. “ I didn’t mean to make you cry. I’ve just had a lot on my mind. So don’t cry.” 

         “Why are you ignoring me,” Y/n sniffles pushing away from him. 

         “I’m not…” 

         “Yes you are!” 

         “No I’m not. Y/n you are being overdramatic.”

         “Are you serious?” Y/n pushes them self out of Ushijimas arm and walks back inside angry. Semi and Tendo look between the now fuming Y/n and annoyed Ushijima. They looked at each and nodded.

        “Y/n.” They both said in unison making they way towards Y/n.

       “Heyo~” Tendo says placing his face in front of Y/n’s. 

       “Are you okay?” Semi asks. 

      “I don’t want to talk about it.” Y/n sniffles and aggressively rubs their eyes. 

      “I think this is the first time I’ve ever seen you and miracle boy Wakatoshi fight.” Tendo mumbles and Semi glares at him with a ‘didn’t they just say they didn’t want to talk about it’ kind of look. 

      “Probably.” Semi’s head snapped in the direction of Y/n with a ‘are you serious right now didn’t you just say you didn’t want to talk’ kind of look on his face. “We’ve only ever fought like this once before but we are usually good at talking out all the things that make us upset but he won’t talk to me.” Y/n’s voice sinks as they speak. 

       “I remember that fight…” Semi shivers a little remembering that time. “This happened back in elementary school so you wouldn’t have seen it Tendo. But it was a rough one. They wouldn’t speak to each other and Ushijima became ten times more aggressive. It was scary.”

       “You say it like you have ptsd from it.”

       “He spiked a ball in my stomach and I thought I was going to die.” Semi scoffs.

      “I forgot about that.” Y/n winced remembering. “But I’m sure he’s not going to -” 

BOOM!

       All eyes drew to the volleyball that had just been spiked so hard it popped. 

       “You were saying?” Semi asks. 

       “Tch.” Y/n clicks there tongue. “I don’t know what you want me to do.”

Fool Of Myself | Chapter Three | rising tensions

Chapter: rising tension

wc: 853

warnings: just meh a chapter

a/n: I’m so sorry this is not very good. This chapter was really hard for me to write and I’m not really sure why. 

| Previous | Masterlist | Next |

       Arriving back after dinner was exhausting to say the least. Y/n excused herself and made her way to her room. Flopping down onto the covers sinking into her bed and snuggling into the pillow slowly drifting off to sleep. However right before she falls asleep a quick flash of Kageyama smiling appeared in her mind. 

      “This is not the time to be thinking about him.” Y/n groans and flips over placing her pillow on her head. 

       There were so many things Y/n missed about Kageyama. The terrible smile he always forced in pictures they took together. She laid awake wondering how he’s been? Her mind racing with questions she had, things she wanted answered. Y/n wanted to know all the things she missed out on. Did he find someone new? What was he like now? Did he miss her? Was he still in love with volleyball? Why? Why did he break up with me? Did it hurt him too? Did he even care? Did he miss me the way I missed him? Does he even care? Frustrated with her racing mind Y/n decided to get up and head to the kitchen for a late night snack to calm her mind. 

      Meanwhile Kageyama laid in bed frown staring at the wall facing Y/n’s room. Unconsciously he reaches out touching the wall wondering what they were doing in the room next door. “What am I doing?” he mumbles and turns over to face the window. Kageyama got out of bed groaning. Clearly irritated that he couldn’t go to sleep. He made his way to the door heading towards the kitchen as Y/n’s door swung open. Kageyama’s eyes opened wide as they met with Y/n’s. No one spoke a word they just stared at each other so close but still out of reach. 

      After a few moments Kageyama opened his mouth and quickly shut it. Y/n’s mind was racing with what to say. What to do, the silence was starting to get to her. 

    “Are you heading to the bathroom?” She squicked out.

    “No. I just wanted a glass of milk.” Kageyama says while rubbing the back of his neck. 

    “Oh. I was heading that way too.”

    “Late night snack?”

    “Yeah” A familiar air surrounded them as they started to move towards the kitchen. “So how’s it been? It was a little hectic before. We didn’t really get to talk.” 

    “It’s been good… Are you still doing that realistic art Expo?” Kageyama asked with a light blush spread across his cheeks. 

    “Huh?” Y/n unconsciously replies and Kageyama pauses realizing he shouldn’t have said that. Y/n glances over and sees the panic in his face as he starts to overheat. A small giggle escaped as a big smile spread across her face that seemed to light up Kageyama’s view the wider it grew. A warm smile formed and Kageyama joined in the laughter and a homely air surrounded the two. Y/n was startled by the question since she had recently started doing realistic art pictures at the gala. After the laughter had subsided Y/n chuckles a little while answering the question. “I only did that because Kiyoko said I should try a different art medium. I’m going to go back to my regular art style at the next gala.”

      “Oh really? I thought it looked cool. I was shocked when I saw it at first. It didn’t feel like you which I thought was strange but it looked beautiful.”

      “I didn’t think you would see it.” Y/n mumbles looking away from Kageyama. 

       “Huh? Of course I’d see it. My eyes alway followed you with anything you’d do.” Kageyama looks away while scratching at his chin with his index finger. Y/n’s face heated up and her heart started to pound hard. So hard she was scared Kageyama could hear it with how quiet the world seemed to be at that very moment. A red tint assaulted Kageyama's face as his pulse quickened and his eyes met Y/n’s. A small world formed around them as they stared into each other. 

      A loud creak came as Ushijima stepped out of his room. Kageyama and Y/n instinctively stepped away from each other and looked towards the source of the sound. 

     “Oh are you heading to the kitchen?” Ushijima mumbles rubbing his eyes.

     “Yes.” Y/n nods as Ushijima walks closer.

     After grabbing a snack from the kitchen the three went to their separate rooms. Before Y/n entered her room she glanced towards Kageyama meeting his eyes as he stared at her. 

     “Goodnight.” Y/n nods and Kageyama lightly nods heading into his room. Y/n flopped on her bed and sighed. 

     “What is wrong with me?” butterflies filled her stomach as she remembered the way Kageyama laughed with her. “His laugh is still as nice as I remember it.” A soft smile formed on Y/n’s face as she drifted off to sleep.

the amount of times I’ve rewritten chapter three of Fool Of Myself and it’s still not the way I want it. 

If chapter three is bad I apologize but I literally have 4 - 8 done already and three is just such a hard chapter to write. 😭

[smileybokuto]

I just read over the first few chapters of Fuck my life and it’s already so messy I was shocked reading it. Like where did that come from who hurt me?

Side note: The second chapter of Yes sent me Katsuki is so petty as a lawyer 😂

Cherry Soda | Chapter Three | secret love confessions

Chapter:  secret love confessions

wc: 1.3k

warnings: light jealousy 

a/n: I love writing Tendo speaking. He brings me joy no cap. Also Sugawara is so freaking cute!

| Prev | Masterlist | Next |

       “Oh Toshi and I aren’t dating, we are just childhood friends.” Y/n laughs as their cheeks warm at this attractive guy in front of them. Standing at the entrance staring at Y/n and Sugawara was Ushijima and Tendo.        “Would you like to go on a date with me then!” Sugawara suddenly bowed in front of Y/n startling them.        “Looks like someones got the hots for our dear Y/n…” Tendo muses as Ushijimas’ fists tightened. Tendo’s curiosity peaks as he bows forward with his head cocked looking at Ushijima. “Are you mayhaps…jea- lous?” his fingers framing his face as he asks.         “Jealous?” Ushijima looks over to Tendo.         “You know the feeling where you are upset someone is stealing Y/n away from you.”         “But Y/n doesn’t belong to me…”         “That isn’t-” Looking over to Ushijima, Tendo sighed and shook his head. “ Never mind.”

        Meanwhile, Sugawara was waiting for Y/n to respond.         “Um… Sugawara…” Y/n started to laugh which left Sugawara confused and nervously laughing as well. “I’m sorry. It’s just you took me by surprise.”         “Suga! We need to go!” A young man with short black hair shouted, waving him over with an amused and worried face.         “Ahh! Daichi just a minute!”         “Oh I’m sorry I’m taking a long time to answer your question.” Y/n scratched the back of their head and smiled. “Why not.”         “Really?! That's a relief!” Suga smiled up at the sky and looked back at Y/n.        “Suga!”        “Oh right! Sorry I have to go,” Suga started to turn to walk away.        “Wait!” Y/n says grabbing the sleeve of his shirt and laughs. “I need your number silly.”        “Oh,” a red tint spread across his cheeks as he shuffled to get his phone out of his pocket. “Here you go.” Y/n put their number into his phone as they waved him off. 

        Ushijima and Tendo watched as Y/n waved him off and started to walk over to them.         “I guess things went well,” Tendo sings.         “What do you mean?” Ushijima is now studying Y/n.         “Well Y/n is smiling, Ushiwaka. And they are practically skipping.” Tendo jokes.         “Tch.” Ushijima clicks his tongue in annoyance. Y/n approached them grinning like the Cheshire cat. “What happened?         “He asked me out,” Y/n giggled. “He was quite cute about it  too. It took me by surprise.” Y/n dreamily sighs.         “Tch,” Ushijima clicks his tongue again. While Y/n starts to gush about Sugawara. Ushijima starts to grow more and more annoyed hearing about the grey haired setter. Y/n didn’t notice but Tendo did and a look of concern passed over his face for a second.        “Manga cafe?”Tendo asks.        “Yeah!” Y/n cheers.        “I think I’m going to head home.” Ushijima sighs running his hand over his face.       “Are you okay, Toshi?”       “Yeah, I’m just…” He looked at Y/n and sighed. “I’m just tired. I’ll see you two tomorrow.”      “Okay…” Y/n says feeling uneasy about the reason.      “Get rid of your green little friend Ushiwaka-kun.” Tendo whispers next to him.      “Uhh, green friend?”      “Don’t worry about it.” He sighs.      “I’ll come by and visit when I head home, okay.”      “Okay.” Ushijima nods. 

      As Ushijima walked home he kept flashing back to Y/n and Sugawara in the courtyard. He kept clenching his fist and sighing.      “Why do I feel like I’m going to lose Y/n,” Ushijima groans while talking to himself. “What is so special about him? He didn’t even play that long. Tch.” He groans, continuing to mumble while walking home trying to figure out why he was so upset. As he approached his house his mother came to the door to greet him surprised Y/n wasn’t with him.      “Where’s Y/n?” She mused patting his shoulder.      “Manga cafe.” Ushijima glares at his mother annoyed by her presence.      “Did I do something to upset you dear?” A tone of concern laced Mrs. Ushijimas’ voice.      “No, I just seem to be in a bad mood, mother. I’ll be in my room if you need me.”      “Okay, dear.” A worried look plasters Mrs. Ushijimas’ face as she watches her son slump into his room. 

     While at the Manga Cafe Tendo and Y/n have been talking about how cool all the new manga shelves were.      “So…”      “Tendo if you have something to say to me, please just say it.” y/n chuckles.      “Do you really like that setter guy?”      “He seems sweet and everyone at Karasuno seems to be interesting. I don’t know if I like him but I am intrigued.”      “What about our miracle boy~” he hums.      “He seemed off,” Y/n nods.      “No no no ~” Tendo nudges Y/n with his shoulder. “Do you like our Miracle Boy Wakaaatoshi~”      “Tendo, he’s my best friend.”      “Yeah but you two are already basically married.” Y/n rolls there eyes at him and scoffs.      “So when are you making chocolate for me, Tendo.”      “Changing the topic huh,” Tendo arches his eyebrow and chuckles. “Fine but you’ve got to answer that question eventually.”     “Okay whatever.”

     When they where younger Ushijima and Y/n would always sit by the window and wish on the stars for all the thing they wanted. So as Ushijima sat there again he made a silent wish for Y/n to always be with him. He had this sinking feeling like Y/n was no longer going to be there forever. He looked over to the clock and he wondered how it could only be 6:42 when it felt so much later. Ushijima heard a light creak, one he knew all too well. He immediately stood up and opened his bedroom door and looked down the hallway to see Y/n taking their shoes off.

    “Welcome home.” 

    “Oh my- You scared me!” Y/n laughs. 

    “You scare too easily.”

    “No you turned off the hall light I thought everyone was asleep,” Y/n puffs out there cheeks reminding Ushijima of a squirrel with it’s mouth stuffed with acorns. A smile smile forms on Ushijima’s face. 

     “We didn’t turn off the light. The bulb broke, we need to replace it.”

     “Ah you should have told me. I was at the store I could have picked one up.”

    “No need hun and welcome home.” A voice from the distance said. 

    “Glad to be back.” Y/n muses.

    “Hey hun, that son of my has been bitter all day so just let me know and I’ll kick him for you.” Ushijima’s mother chuckled making her way down the hall to greet Y/n. 

    “I have not.” Ushijima pouts.

    “Have too, he didn’t even give me a hug when he came home.” Mrs. Ushijima says feigning hurt. As Y/n comes in and hugs her. 

    “Wow how rude. 

    “I know right! Are you staying over tonight?”

     “I can’t tonight my parents are back today so i’m going to see them before they leave again.” 

     “Okay dear.” Mrs. Ushijima nods as Ushijima moves out of the door frame to let you in. “Now you two have fun. Don’t stay up too late.” 

     “Of course,” Y/n nods. 

     “Y/n is the one who always stays up late.” Ushijima rolls his eyes as he says this. 

     “The lies,” Y/n gasps and Mrs. Ushijima laughs.

     “Okay loves good night.”

     Y/n sits down on the mattress and dumps out the plastic bag from the convenience store. Y/n picked up a Cherry soda and handed the Peach soda to Ushijima whe sat next to them flicking on the tv. 

     “Let’s watch the volleyball game between the Jackals and Adlers,” Y/n says holding a strawberry twizzler tapping it against Ushijimas’ mouth. Ushijima nods flipping to the game channel and taking the twizzler into his mouth. 

      “Did you have fun with Tendo?”

      “Yes, of course. We missed you though.” 

PING.

       Y/n looked down at their phone to see a text from Sugawara and a giant smile plastered across their face making Ushijima’s uneasiness intensify. 

Hi Y/n~ 

It’s Sugawara! I just wanted to say good night and sleep well.

Fool Of Myself | Chapter Two | dinner

Chapter: dinner

wc: 1.7k

warnings: self insert 

a/n: I am mentioned. I wanted to be y/ns best friend

| Previous | Masterlist | Next |

    Y/n and Kageyama hold eye contact for a minute before she smiles at him and looks back at the others trying to resemble some composer. 

    “I’m sorry. I’m Y/n Ushijima. Nice to finally meet you all.” Y/n smiles. “Sorry for being so rude before. I wasn’t expecting anyone else to be here.” A light blush spread across all the young men's faces as they gawked at Y/n. 

     “You weren’t being rude! It was our fault for not telling you! We’re sorry.” Romero scratches the back of his head, smiling. 

     “Oh no.” Y/n chuckles. “You’re our guest. Are you all hungry? I was just about to start cooking.”

     “We can just go out and eat.” Ushijima laughs. “My treat. Come join us little one.”

     “When will that nickname ever die.” Y/n laughs. “If it isn’t too much trouble for everyone else.”

     “Not a problem.”

     “I don’t have a problem.”

     “Please join us!” 

     “Yeah…the company would be nice.”

     “Okay. Let me just change.” Y/n makes her way past the team to her room. After shutting the door she sank down to the ground and groaned into her hands. “Oh my god… why?” Y/n could feel her chest tighten and she sat there taking deep breaths. 

     While in the living room everyone’s eyes were on Kageyama. It was Hoshiumi who spoke up first. 

      “How could you break up with her?!?!” He whispered. 

      “I-... Shut up.” Kageyama crossed his arms and rolled his eyes. But he couldn’t stop thinking about the way Y/n smiled at him. He was hurt, Y/n smile was definitely forced, if you didn’t know her it was hard to tell but that was not the smile he remembered. It was distant and lonely. But somehow Y/n still managed to draw his eyes. Kageyama was growing more and more agitated with his teammates who were gushing about how beautiful Y/n was. Kageyama and Ushijima retreated to his room. Ushijima was concerned for his sister, he could tell that she was forcing a smile.  

      “I’m concerned about Y/n.” Ushijima mumbles. 

       “She doesn’t seem like her normal self. I noticed. It’s probably because we blindsided her with our arrival.” Kageyama says with a heavy sigh. “Or it could be that she is uncomfortable with us being here.”

       “Do you think so?” Kageyama nods. They sit there in silence for a minute before they hear Y/n’s soft voice. Kageyama’s head springs up and he looks to the door. Somehow the air became thicker and it was hard to breathe. Ushijima made his way to the door and Kageyama hesitantly followed behind him. 

        “Are you guys ready?” Y/n asks peeking her head into the living room where all the guys were sitting. 

        “Yeah. Let’s go.” Ushijima says walking out from his room with Kageyama. 

        On the walk to the restaurant Y/n stayed at Wakatoshi’s side, with Sokolov standing next to her holding a conversation about Ushijima on the team. Hoshiumi, Romero and Kageyama follow behind.

        “You look sad Tobio.” Hoshiumi says looking over to the setter who hasn’t taken his eyes off of Y/n the entire time. 

        “Hmm..” Kageyama replied on instinct without actually paying attention. 

        “Hey.” Romero chuckles, nudging Kageyama’s shoulder. 

        “Yeah?” Kageyama finally looks at Romero who nods towards a fuming Hoshiumi.

        “I was just trying to be nice and you ignore me.” 

        “I’m sorry…” Kageyama replied puzzled. 

        “You could at least look like you’re sorry.” Hoshiumi mumbles. “But i’ll forgive you since you're in love.”

        “Huh?!?!” Kageyama shouts and slaps his hand over his mouth after realizing how loud he was. Kageyama’s eyes locked with Y/n who broke eye contact and looked at Hoshiumi who was shocked that Kageyama was that red and shocked. Kageyama was as red as a tomato as he cleared his throat getting ready to talk. 

         “Are you guys alright?” Y/n asked looking with concern laced in their eyes. And just like that all the words Kageyama was about to say disappeared and all he could do was nod. 

         “We’re fine! Don’t worry! Hoshiumi just said that Kageyama’s sets were off during practice.” Romero laughs, a look of realization comes across Y/n’s face and then a sadness flashed across her face before being replaced by a small smile. 

         “Really? I didn’t think his sets were off.” Wakatoshi nods. Kageyama looked very uncomfortable and couldn’t bring himself to look up and met Y/n’s gaze. 

         “Well of course not silly. Hoshiumi said it was off for him. You two are different people.” Y/n giggles dragging Ushijima with them. Y/n glances back at Kageyama who was still swaying from foot to foot eyes to the ground. That little gesture didn’t go unnoticed by the team. 

         “Oh?” Romero cocks his head to the side. “Maybe it isn’t just our king.” Romero slinks his arm around Kageyama’s shoulder. 

          “Don’t call me that?” Kageyama scoffs and shrugs his arm off. “Let’s go before they leave us.” 

         Dinner was awkward to say the least. The team made sure to sit Y/n next to Kageyama. They were sitting so tightly together Y/n and Kageyama couldn’t stop from brushing against each other. They were almost pressed together. Kageyama was scowling at Romero and Sokolov who were sitting at the end hogging up all the extra room. Y/n looked over to Kageyama and saw him scowling, she tried to move over but she didn’t want to be on top of Hoshiumi anymore than she was. 

       “Um...is there anyway we can get a bigger table.” Kageyama looks down and sees how squished Y/n was, unconsciously he moved his arm behind her onto the back of the booth to make room for them. “O-oh, thanks.” Kageyama couldn’t speak so he just nodded and looked around the cafe. 

       “I didn’t know Kageyama had moves.” Kageyama’s head swiveled to look at Sokolov who had made the comment. A light tint of pink dusting his cheeks before he clicked his tongue and looked away again. Kageyama was still tongue tied, Y/n looked over at the setter who looked annoyed and embarrassed. 

       Y/n sat next to him thinking, ‘He’s probably annoyed that he has to sit next to me. It’s not like I want to be next to you either but at least pretend like I am. He hasn’t even said hi to me. OR even said a word to me. Does he hate me that much? Why is he upset? He broke up with me. Ugh whatever. I just need to get through this.’ 

       Kageyama sat overheating while overthinking in his head. ‘God she’s so close. What do I do? Fuck. Can she hear my heart beating this hard? What do I do? Dammit. I can’t even speak. What would Hinata do?Ughhhh! I don’t know. What is the best move here? Shit. She’s so beautiful. I can’t do this. I-Fuck. Please stop getting closer to me. Romero move OVER! For fucks sake you’re practically pushing her onto me. She doesn’t want this. She’s uncomfortable. Dammit. Fuck. Shit.’ Hoshiumi was goofing around and accidently pushed Y/n over onto Kageyama who caught her. 

      “Oh I’m sorry Y/n.” Hoshiumi apologized. 

      “It’s okay. No damage done.” Y/n sighs and moves back onto the booth. 

      “Stop goofing around.” Kageyama’s tone was harsh and both Y/n and Hoshiumi flinched. Kageyama instantly regretted speaking.

       “Hi, my name is Cherry. Can I take your order?”

       “Uhh yeah one moment.” Sokolov says realizing the tension in the air was thick. 

       “Can I start you guys off with something to drink?”

       “Vegan strawberry milkshake.” Kageyama and Y/n say at the same time. They both looked at each other as all eyes drew to them. 

       “Sure thing.” 

       “Ugh yeah.” Y/n nods and looks at Ushijima who had gone back to studying the menu. 

      After ordering they went back to an awkward silence. Till Y/n couldn’t bear it anymore, after realizing no one was going to break it she decided she had to. 

       “So you guys are here for a game right?” 

       “Oh yeah against the Jackals!” Hoshiumi responds. 

       “Oh you mean Shoyo’s team!” Y/n chirps up. 

       “You know Hinata?” Hoshiumi asks, eyes twinkling.

       “Yeah, we were good friends. Oh I know Bokuto and Atsumu too. They're dating my friend.”

       “Wait both of them?!?!” 

       “Genesis’s dating four of them I think. Hinata, Bokuto, Akaashi and Atsumu. Right?” Kageyama says deeply in thought.

        “Yeah. I’m pretty sure. Genesis is only dating them.” Y/n nods.

        “Four?!? People?!” the table erupts. 

        “Yeah.” Kageyama, Ushijima and Y/n all say confused expressions on their faces. 

        “I-okay. Then.”  Romero says, baffled by how nonchalant they were about it.

        “That is not normal.” Kageyama scowled at Sokolov for saying such a thing. 

        “So? They are happy.” Kageyama’s tone was quite sour and the conversation died down quickly. 

        “My bad. You’re right.” Sokolov nods. 

        “How is Hinata dating four people and I can’t even get one!!” Hoshiumi groans and the table laughs. 

        “You’re too annoying.” Ushijima nods. 

        “Toshi.” Y/n gasps, then looks over at the now deflated Hoshiumi. “Don’t listen to him. You just haven’t found the right person that’s all.”

        “Y/n you are a goddess. Why is your brother so mean to me?” Hoshiumi asks while holding Y/n’s hand. 

        “I don’t know.” Y/n pats his head and glares over at Ushijima. “Toshi, that wasn’t very nice.”

        “But is it not true?” 

        “No! Toshi? People like people. That’s it. He just hasn’t found his person yet.” 

        “That makes no sense.” Ushijima responds. 

        “Yes it does, don’t you and (Cherry Soda!Y/n) like each other?” 

        “Well no…” The table went silent for a minute before Ushijima spoke again. “We love each other.” 

        “Sometimes I wonder how we are related.” 

        “You were adopted.”  

        “That would make sense.” Y/n chuckles rolling her eyes.

        Waking up was always hard for Y/n and Ushijima especially after a long night of studying. The alarm was blaring ‘wake me up before you go go by wham’. Y/n groans and cuddles closer to Ushijima who had his arm loosely wrapped around their waist. Without opening his eyes Ushijima reaches behind y/n and slams the snooze button. As his mother and storm burst through the door and she opened the blinds. 

       “Wake up you dear.” She smacks the bottom of his foot and he groans. “You have to go for your run, dear.” 

       “Ten more minutes.” He pleads sinking his head into the croak of y/n’s neck.

      “No.” Mrs. Ushijima hums. “Up and at’em.” 

      “Toshi. Please. Get up. I’m trying to sleep and she won’t close the blinds till you leave.” Y/n mumbles running their fingers through his hair slowly waking him up. 

       “Fine. Please shut the blinds.” He says rolling out of bed as his mother shuts the blind. Storm hops on the bed and lays down next to Y/n.

        “Y/n hunny.” Mrs. Ushijima lowers her voice as y/n hums in response. “I’ll be back in two hours to wake you okay.”

       “Mhmm.” Y/n hums in agreeance pulling a Storm close to their chest to replace Ushijima’s presence. 

       “Oh I’ll wash your uniform so just switch into the other one in the closet.” Mrs. Ushijima says as she and Ushijima leave the room, closing the door behind them. 

       Just as Mrs.Ushijima promised two hours later she came back and woke Y/n up. Y/n showered and changed, throwing their clothes in Ushijima’s hamper and headed to the kitchen. Mrs. Ushijima was making breakfast, while Storm was sitting on the couch, as Y/n made their way over to the coffee machine.

       “Extra strong please.”

      “Yes Ma’am.” Y/n says plopping a fourth scoop of coffee grinds into the filter and popped it into the machine, hitting the start button. 

      “Hunny, can you set the table?” 

      “Yes. Of course.” Y/n says taking a deep breath and stretching. “Hmmm. Food smells good.”

      “You say that everytime.”

      “Because your food always smells good.” Y/n chuckles resting the plates down on the table. The front door slides open and Ushijima walks in sweating.

    “Welcome home,” Y/n and Mrs. Ushijima says and continues their previous conversation. 

    “I’m going to shower.” Ushijima announces and gets a nod from the two other people in this house. 

    “I’ll teach you how to make this for my son one day then.” Mrs. Ushijima wistfully says. 

    “You’ve said that for years now. How many times do I have to tell you we are just friends.” Y/n rolls their eyes while smiling at the middle aged woman in the kitchen flipping the bacon. 

    “You say that now hun. But that son of mine might be slow to realize his emotions but you are just as bad.”

    “You say the weirdest things sometimes.” Y/n laughs.

     “Don’t you worry one day I’m sure you’ll be my in law.” She nods agreeing with her own statement.

     “Okay.” Y/n laughs brushing it off as Ushijima emerges from his room in his school uniform. 

      After eating breakfast Mrs. Ushijima saw them off to school. While walking Y/n was telling Ushijima about the weird dream they had about Tendo being a spy for a secret organization trying to breed alien superhumans who are good at volleyball. 

     “That’s very interesting Y/n. You should tell Tendo he’ll enjoy that.” 

     “I know right!” Y/n laughs as they spot Semi. “Oi, Semi!” Y/n shouts waving their hand in the air trying to get Semi’s attention. Semi looks back and laughs making his way over to the two. “Let me tell you about my dream!” 

     “Is it about Tendo again?” An amused look glazed over Semis eyes as he stared at them. Ushijima was staring at his friend slightly annoyed that Y/n had started talking to Semi more than him. Y/n explained the dream again.  “You're weird.”  

       “You have no appreciation for entertainment.” Y/n huffs crossing their arms across their chest. “Toshi and Tendo could never, hmph.” 

       “Could never what?” Ushijima questions.

      “You would never treat me like Semi does.” Y/n clarified.

      “Oh okay.” 

      “What are we going to have for lunch?” Y/n asks while looking from Ushijima to Semi. 

       “It’s still morning and you are already thinking about lunch?” Semi rolls his eyes and snickers. 

       “I’ll take you to the convenience store at lunch and we'll find food.”

       “Ooo that’s a good idea!!” Y/n says skipping a little. Tendo spotted the Trio from the gate.

        “Yahoo!” He shouts waving them over. “You’re late!”

       “No Tendo-san you are just early as usual.” Semi snides. 

       “How mean Semi Semi~”

       “Don’t call me that,” Semi rolls his eyes at the red haired boy. 

       “Meeting the happy couple again I see~”

       “Not a couple,” Ushijima and Y/n chimes. 

      “Good Morning Tendo,” Ushijima greets with a somewhat cheerful demeanor. 

      “Good morning Ushiwaka-Kun~”

      “Oh Tendo, good morning let me tell you about my dream,” Tendo’s head swivels in the direction of Y/n with a curious gaze. 

      “Oh! Y/n did you read the new One Piece episode.” 

      “Of course! It was so good!”

     “Y/n wouldn’t let me sleep till they watched the new episode.” Ushijima sighs.

      “I told you to go to sleep without me,” Y/n rolls their eyes and Ushijima scowls at them.

      “The last time I did that. I woke up to you sobbing on the floor.” Semi and Tendo both stopped walking and stared at the pair who soon stopped a few steps in front of them. 

       “Wait… back track… you slept over at his house.”

      “Yeah?” Y/n answers Semi who is looking between the two. He then peers over to Tendo who is just as shocked. 

      “In the same room?!?” Tendo burst out drawing the eyes of a few other students. 

       “Yes.” Ushijima nodded to Tendo and then started to argue with Y/n again. Meanwhile, Semi and Tendo are at a loss for words staring at them in confusion.

      “How can they be so oblivious??” Semi whispers to Tendo.

      “I can’t believe Ushiwaka has game.” Tendo presses his hands to his cheeks watching the two.

      “How long do you think it will take for them to realise they like each other?” Semi places his finger on his chin in contemplation. 

      “I put money down on two years last year. So this year, or I will lose to Ohira. Which would be annoying.” Tendo grimances.

      “You guys made a bet without me!” Semi shouted, smacking Tendo’s arm. 

      “Ow! Semi Semi that hur-”

      “Tendo we have to go or we’ll be late for Modern Japanese!” Y/n says pulling him by his sleeve.

      “Okay~. See you guys at lunch.” Tendo laughs. 

      The bell rang for Lunch and Ushijima made his way to Y/n’s class to wait for them. Tendo and Y/n had gotten in Trouble for talking during class and were being scolded by the teacher. 

      “It was your fault Tendo.” Y/n chuckles walking out of the classroom. 

      “Ahh! Ushiwaka-san please tell Y/n that we only got in trouble because they were laughing too loud.” Tendo hums. 

     “Well Y/n does laugh loud,” a look of pure shock and annoyance flashes over Y/n’s face. 

     “You- ugh! Toshi you alway side with Tendo.” Y/n huffs and crosses their arms over their chest. 

     “But Tendo is right.” 

     “I- fine… whatever let’s go to the convenience store. You coming Tendo?” Y/n asks peering back at him. 

     “Ooo~. Yes!”

     When they arrived at the store. Ushijima grabbed a basket and followed behind Tendo and Y/n who were engrossed with their conversation about the new shonen jump manga that came out. A soft smile creeped its way onto Ushijima’s face while he picked up a peach soda for himself. He grabs a Cherry soda for Y/n and Tendo’s favorite chocolates since they were too busy arguing about who the best antagonist is. 

       “You two need to pick food.” Ushijima’s voice cut off there conversation and they nodded picking up food and placing it into the basket. Then proceeded to continue their conversation following Ushijima to the counter while he paid. Tendo and Y/n both tried but Ushijima blocked the entire counter so they would not be able to. 

      “Awww! Ushiwaka-kun. You can’t just keep paying for us.” 

     “Yeah! I was trying to pay but you just kept swatting my hand away.” Y/n grumbles pouting a little and a faint red hue grazed Ushijimas face while he looked at them. A single thought flashing through his head, ‘how cute’. Ushijima said nothing but just continued to walk ignoring their protests. When they arrived at the table where the team was Semi motioned for them to come over and sit next to him in the open seats. 

     “Ushiwaka-kun took us out on a date~” Tendo sings and the table erupted in laughter. 

     “Oh really? Why won’t you take me on a date Ushijima-san!” Goshiki shouts, staring intently at Ushijima.

    “I didn’t take them on a date.” Ushijima acknowledges Goshiki with a quick glance as he places the food in front of its intended owner. 

    “He took us to the convenience store and he paid for us! That is a date!” Tendo says lacing his fingers together and perches his chin on them while staring at him. 

      “With that logic he would be dating the whole team then.” Y/n muses and everyone laughs.  

       At the end of the day, Y/n, Tendo and Ushijima met at the gym entrance.

      “I forgot we had a practice match with the demon children from Karasuno!” Tendo groans. 

       “Those first years are scary.” Y/n agrees nodding. 

       “KAGEYAMA!!”

       “HINATA BOKE!”

       “And they are loud.” Y/n jokes. 

       “Annoying..” Ushijima clicks his tongue and walks into the gym. Y/n peers door the way to see the Karasuno team making its way to the gym.

       “This is going to be interesting,” Y/n muses and enters the gym. 

       After the practice match the shy silver haired setter approached Y/n, Tendo and Ushijima outside of the gym. He stood in front of Y/n fiddling with his thumbs and swaying from foot to foot.

     “Uh hi! My name is Koushi Sugawara and I was wondering if Ushijima-kun was your boyfriend?”

       ‘It’s been a while,’ Y/n though as she walked down the streets of a familiar unfamiliar place. A deep sigh left her body when she walked past the convenience store they used to stop at on their way home. A small ache placed itself on her heart but she kept walking ignoring the subtle throb. 

“It’s fine,” she said “he’s not here so it's fine.” Y/n kept walking, dragging her suitcase behind her to her parents house. 

      Y/n had asked her parents to let her stay at the house while she had an art show in town. They agreed, telling her that her painting room is still untouched from when she last visited. Y/n felt like something was off with her parents like they were hiding something from her. She thought she was being paranoid. Y/n opened the door to her childhood home filled with pictures of her and her brother Wakatoshi. A small smile graced her lips as she moved to her room and placed her things away. She then makes her way to the kitchen, turning on the kettle to make herself a nice cup of tea. 

      Y/n turns on the radio and starts to hum along swaying from side to side while she rummages through the pantry looking for something to eat. Y/n sighs realizing there was no food in the house. She clicks her tongue and sighs again. “Guess i’ll just have to go shopping then.” Y/n glances up at the clock only 2:15. ‘Hmm maybe I should just go now. It will only take me half an hour. Y/n turns off the kettle and leaves the house. 

     Meanwhile, the Adlers had just boarded their flight back to Miyaji. Or more precisely Karasuno. Kageyama was nervous about going back to Karasuno. There were so many good memories but more recently there were painful ones. HE wasn’t sure if he was ready to open those wounds again. He really just missed her. He wanted more than anything to see her again. To get a second chance. To try and work things out again. Kageyama sat on the plane, milk in hand filled with regrets and dread. He wondered if she was going to be there. He knew she was a successful painter in Paris and she had a gala here for the next few weeks. Does she keep tabs on him like he did for her? Kageyama’s head was racing with questions about how she was. 

      “We are staying at my house. It has enough room for all of us.” Ushijima says once they land. 

      “Is that okay?” Kageyama asks furring his brow. 

      “My parents said it’s fine they are away for the next two month. We are only here for a month. My sister is home. She has a gala coming up but she’ll probably stay in the paint room so we’ll barely see her.” Ushijima says watch Kageyama closely as he says this. Kageyama’s breath hitched and his eyes opened wide when he heard y/n would be there. Ushijima noticed a look of longing glaze over Kageyama's eyes. Ushijima had no idea why Kageyama and Y/n broke up. They genuinely seemed happy together and  he was confused when their relationship ended. Ushijima had developed a soft spot for Kayegama. 

      “You have a sister!!!” Housimi shouted, jumping up and down. 

      “Yes.” Ushijima nodded. “Y/n.” Kageyama shifts uncomfortably but a look of hope flashed across his eyes. Maybe this was his chance to fix things. There were many nights after the break up where he typed out a message to Y/n but always failed to send it. He’d hurt her too bad. Y/n would never forgive him why should she? He broke her heart, right? But for some reason he kept hoping things would go back to the way it used too. Maybe you two had a chance. 

      “Kageyama didn’t you use to date someone named Y/n?” Sokolov asks. “ Isn’t it going to be weird being around someone with the same name.” Kageyama grimaces and the whole team watches him shift uncomfortably. 

       “It shouldn’t be awkward. Y/n is over the break up.” Ushijima says patting Kageyama on the back. 

       “WAIT!” Hoshiumi yells, drawing unwanted attention. “YOUR SISTER Y/N IS KAGEYAMA”S EX AND WE ARE STAYING WITH HIS EX!!!”

       “Hoshiumi you are too loud.” Ushijima nods. “From what my parents have said, Y/n is seeing someone back in tokyo. A doctor I think.” Kageyama grimaces while Ushijima keeps talking. 

      ‘Wait am I too late?’ ‘I should have sent those messages.’ ‘I’m such an idiot.’ Kageyama felt his chest tighten the more he heard about you and someone else. The team could see the look of dread flash through Kageyma’s eyes. 

      “Man, I’m hungry! Let’s go eat!” Romero stretches resting his hand around Kageyama’s shoulder. 

      “I am quite hungry. Let’s head to my house first and rest our stuff down.” Ushijima nods unaware of Kageyama’s growing discomfort. 

      “Sounds like a plan lets go!” Romero chuckles, squeezing Kageyama’s shoulder. Kageyama was silent the whole ride to the house stuck in his head trying to figure out what to say to Y/n after all this time. 

       Meanwhile, Y/n was happily strolling around the grocery store picking up a month's worth of food so that she wouldn’t have to go shopping again while she was here. After Y/n was done shopping they went back home and put away the groceries. She popped her headphones in and started to clean the house while dancing around. Opening windows, dusting mats and watering the plants. Y/n had really missed being home, a wave of nostalgia washed over her as she continued to clean. Y/n was so consumed in her thoughts and music she didn’t even hear the front door open or Ushijima saying ‘I’m home.’ She turned around from placing the cushions back on the couch to be met with a room full of guys watching her. Shocked, she stepped back and almost fell onto the couch. She removed her headphones with a puzzled look after realizing they were her brother's teammates. 

       “Wow, Your sister is so pretty Ushijima-san.” A guy who looked like a bird said jumping up and down.

       “Um… hi.” Y/n mumbles with a small wave. “What are you guys doing here?”

       “Huh?! We are staying here too…” Hoshiumi says confusion clearly in his voice. 

       “Oh there you are Y/n. I didn’t know if you landed already.” Wakatoshi says walking over and patting you on the head. 

       “Oh hi Toshi.” Y/n says grabbing his hand from on top of her head and rubbing the top unconsciously before registering what was happening. “Wait.” She looked around realizing just dawning on her. He was on this team. There’s no way her parents wouldn’t tell her that he would be here. If they had there’s no way Y/n would have stayed here. “I didn’t know you would be staying here.” 

      “Didn’t mother tell you? I knew you were going to be here.” Ushijima says, puzzled. 

      “She didn’t tell me. I thought I would have had the house to myself.” Y/n sighs. “Well I don’t really care, i’ll be in my painting room most of the time anyways. But it’s good to see you Toshi. I’ve missed you.”

      “I’ve missed you too.”

      “I wish I had siblings like that.” Sokolov says fake sniffling. 

      “Oh I must seem so rude.” Y/n giggles. “I’m Y/-”

     Then as if on queue she saw him. Of all the unfortunate things to happen in her life why did he have to walk through your door. Why him? 

      Why? 

      Tobio Kageyama.
