You've been spending your lunch breaks with the same foursome for the last few days.
Even though this should have bothered you, it was actually quite entertaining.
maybe that's what you needed in the first place.
You listened to Hinata and Kageyama's heated conversation with a smile on your face.
Hinata asked, jumping to another topic as usual.
Hinata
How about getting some practice in before lunch break?
Kageyama
Hmm. Okay. We needed to work on our fast attack anyway.
Yamaguchi
Are we even allowed to use the gym?
Hinata
Tanaka-san had the key. We'll ask when we leave.
Yamaguchi
Tsukki, you're coming, right?
Tsukishima
I don't understand why you're trying so hard.
Hinata
Don't you want to go to the national tournament?
Tsukishima
Ah, whatever. Do whatever you want.
You had noticed these past few days that Tsukishima didn't seem to have much interest in volleyball, unlike the others.
Whenever this topic was discussed, he remained silent and focused on his food.
Hinata
Y/n-chan, do you want to come? We'll show you our fast attack.
Your gaze drifted to Tsukishima as you considered accepting the offer.
Y/n
"Won't he feel lonely all by himself?" you thought.
With this thought in mind, you decided to decline the offer and stay with him.
Y/n
Thanks, but I look a little tired. I'll stay with Tsukishima.
Y/n
Sorry. I'd like to see your fast attack next time though.
Hinata
Oh, no problem. Come next time. And we'll be better by then.
Yamaguchi
Then we're going. See you later y/n-san
Hinata
First one to the gym wins!
He said. And started running
Kageyama
You're cheating again!
They started running after him, leaving Yamaguchi helpless behind.
Yamaguchi
Guys, we had to get the key first...
Yamaguchi
"Oh...nevermind. I'll take it." he mumbled.
then yamaguchi left you too.
Tsukishima
Why didn't you go?
Y/n
As I said, I wanted to rest a little before class.
Tsukishima
"Then I'm leaving." He said and started to get up
Y/n
Uh! No, I mean I thought we could rest together...
Tsukishima
"So how do you plan to rest?" he asked jokingly.
Y/n
mm... communicating with nature? maybe...
Tsukishima
"Do you want to walk barefoot on the grass or something?" he asked, half joking and half suspicious.
Y/n
I was thinking we could sit in the garden and get some fresh air, but this is a good idea too. haha
Tsukishima
Never mind, your idea is better, let's do it.
Y/n
Uh, do you want to grab something sweet on your way out?
You went outside with your strawberry milks and started looking for a quiet place to sit.
After you both settled into your seats, you sat in silence for a while.
"Uh, I'm still not good at starting conversations." you started to think when tsukishima started talking, pulling you out of your thoughts.
Tsukishima
After the noise at lunch, it felt pretty quiet in here. Isn't it so relaxing?
Y/n
haha yeah... it was a mess. But on the other hand it felt peaceful.
Tsukishima
"Seriously? Peaceful?" he looked at you in disbelief
Tsukishima
"What kind of experience did you experience that made you call such an environment peaceful?" he asked sarcastically.
Y/n
"Actually, I'm usually a loner." You said with shyly.
Y/n
You continued talking, giggling to yourself." When I think back to when we first met, it seems very strange that we are sitting here together.
Y/n
Actually, I thought you were a bully. I was thinking of staying away from you. But as fate would have it, we kept running into each other.
Tsukishima
"Bully, huh?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.
Y/n
"Uh, Of course I don't think so right now." you answered quickly.
Tsukishima
Oh, Why? I was going to say it was exactly right.
Even though you knew he was joking, he looked a little hurt.
Y/n
No, you were really thoughtful and kind. It was a little annoying when Hinata would say and ask whatever came to his mind. But at those moments, you would save me from that situation with a small sentence. For that, I really appreciate it.
Tsukishima
"Alright. I think that was enough proof." He said it jokingly
Y/n
"I'm glad his morale seems to have improved." you thought.
You asked a little shyly, the volleyball topic coming to your mind.
Y/n
I wanted to ask you something if you don't mind.
Tsukishima
Hm. If it's something I can answer.
Y/n
Why did you join the volleyball club? It seems like you don't like it that much compared to others.
He didn't seem to expect such a question and didn't say anything for a while.
then he replied with a flat expression.
Tsukishima
"There is no specific reason," he said.
You sensed a bit of sadness in his speech, so you thought it might be an uncomfortable topic for him, so you tried to change the subject.
You spoke while looking at the empty carton of milk in his hand.
Y/n
"You seem to like sweet things." said with a smile.
Tsukishima
Yeah, I think I got it from my mom.
Y/n
Really? I can say that my mother hates sweets.
Y/n
"isn't it?" you giggled.
You continued talking like this until the bell rang.
It's been a long time since you talked to a friend like this without worrying about other things.
After saying goodbye to each other, you dispersed to your classes.
