Lucas (Luke)
Wake up you meat bun demon.
He says trying to wake Shoyo up by shaking him.
Hinata
5 more... minutes...
Luke keeps on shaking Shoyo, but he keeps refusing to wake up.
He sighs as he walks to the blinds.
Lucas (Luke)
I'm done being nice to you, you little demon.
Lucas (Luke)
Wake the f*** up!
He opens the blinds letting the sunlight seep into Shoyo's room, waking him up.
Sweet Tangerine 🍊💕
HISSSS~!
Shoyo hisses and covers himself with his blankets.
Luke glares at him for a second.
Lucas (Luke)
Get your a** up.
Then walks to the door, notifying Shoyo about something.
Lucas (Luke)
The loud manager brought some meat buns.
Shoyo lifts the covers and looks at Luke, his eyes filled with sparkles.
The boy already under the door's archway, rolls his eyes then glances at Shoyo and nods.
Shoyo instantly gets up and heads to the bathroom and gets ready for the day.
After a while, Shoyo heads down to the kitchen.
As soon as he finds the meat buns, he quickly takes them and stuff one in his mouth as he walks to the studio.
He greets the band as he enters the studio.
Fabulous B!tch
Morning 'cuz.
Asher (Ash)
Goooood-morninggg to you too, my darling~
{He calls people darling or their nicknames when he wants something.}
Hinata
No sweety, don't call me that.
Asher (Ash)
Why are you so mean to me Hinata?? 😭
{They're allowed to call him by his name privately when they're alone, but not when other people are around.}
Isabella (Isa, Bella)
Dude.
Isabella (Isa, Bella)
Drop the act already, he won't fall for it. 😂
Lucas (Luke)
The short demon finally woke up.
Hinata
Oh shut up you photogenic jerk!
Hinata
I usually wake up earlier than you!
Lucas (Luke)
At least I look good anywhere, anytime, unlike you.
He takes his phone out and shows them a picture.
{Credits to the owner po.}
Lucas (Luke)
See? Ang panget diba?
He asks with a grin reaching his ears.
Letting out short and quiet laughs.
The other two also start to quietly laugh as well.
Hinata
Where did you get that?!?!
Shoyo tries to take the phone from Luke to delete the picture.
But Luke stands up and raises his hand as high as possible, making Shoyo not be able to reach it.
Sweet Tangerine 🍊💕
Give that to me!
Their laughs then begin to increase in volume.
The door opens and Jenny comes in.
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
You guys, that's enough.
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
We have other important matters to talk about.
They look at her and hurriedly take their seats.
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
Are your luggages ready?
Isabella (Isa, Bella)
Uh... almost?
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
*sigh*
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
Istfg y'all are trying to make me lose my marbles..!..
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
¤ Calm down Jenny, calm down. ¤
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
Sorry.
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
Shoyo, please help them get theirs ready?
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
We're leaving in a few hours, so go get ready!
Lucas (Luke)
Don't be so loud, we're going now.
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
You...
The three of them leave the room in a hurry before Jen could yell.
Hinata
Relax Jen, I got this, go take care your things.
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
Thank you Shoyo.
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
I'll have someone bring your bags to the car.
Shoyo heads to Ash's room and he notices that Ash barely even started.
Ash looks at him with pleading eyes.
Hinata
This is what you needed help with?
Asher (Ash)
Please help me, I don't know what to bring... 🥺
Hinata
*giggles* then *sigh*
Shoyo approaches Ash's drawers and takes out some clothes.
After packing some everyday and night clothes, Shoyo goes in Ash's closet and picks out some outside clothes.
It's quiet... until Ash breaks the silence still laying down in bed while Shoyo is in his closet.
Asher (Ash)
How long are we staying in Japan?
Hinata
For about two weeks, I think.
Asher (Ash)
You lived in Japan last year, right?
Shoyo pauses and answers with a hum.
Asher (Ash)
Are you... excited to go back?
He responds still looking for clothes to pack for Ash.
Then a girl's voice is heard from the door followed by a monotone one.
Isabella (Isa, Bella)
If they do something to you again...
Lucas (Luke)
We won't hesitate to pay them back ten times worse.
Shoyo and Ash trun their heads to see Isa and Luke.
Hinata
Ah, you don't worry.
Hinata
They won't recognize me, I look way different now.
{He's now 170.2 cm, he grew 7.4 centimeters in a year, lol.}
{He also chooses to wear fake glasses in public and his hair is a bit tamed now.}
{Credits to the owner po.}
Lucas (Luke)
Okay... *mumbles*
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
STOP BREAKING THE 4TH WALL DUMBA**!
Hinata
Yeah! You don't pay us enough to interrupt!
Author 💕
Gomen, gomen, jeez.
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
Oh, you're all here.
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
Let's go, we're gonna eat first before leaving.
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
The earlier we leave, the earlier we can arrive.
Shoyo packs the clothes in Ash's luggages and zips the bag close.
They then head to a restaurant then the airport.
As the band enters the airport, they are greeted by their loving fans who arrived to send them off.
Surprise by the sudden rush, guards surround the team, blocking off the fans from reaching them.
Hinata
H-how did they know which airport we were going to?
Lucas (Luke)
I bet these two had something to do with it.
Hinata
That's right... the two of you are being awfully quiet.
Isabella (Isa, Bella)
We...
Isabella (Isa, Bella)
Posted something about it earlier...
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
And when was that?
Jen walks slowly with until they catch up, joining the conversation.
Asher (Ash)
While we we're eating...
Hinata
That was an hour ago!
The two of them laugh awkwardly.
Afterwards, the team stands by the cashier (?), sending their belongings into their private plane.
The fans begin to weep and wish them a great tour as the band members start to board the plane.
~Meanwhile with Karasuno~
{Kiyoko, Suga, Daichi and Asahi are visiting.}
Yachi
Kiyoko-san! Did you look at Perfect Last's Instagram story??
She asks out loud making the team glance at them.
Nishinoya
¤ Perfect... Last!?! ¤
Kiyoko
Huh? Oh no, not yet.
Kiyoko
Did something happen?
Tanaka
¤ Kiyoko-san seems interested in them... ¤
Tadashi and Noya overhears their conversation and heads towards them, leaving practice.
Suga stands up and goes to the two girls.
Yamaguchi
Did I hear that correct?
Sugawara
You said Perfect Last right?
Nishinoya
You know them too??
Yachi
Anyways, check the band's Instagram syory!
They takes their phones out while the rest of the team just looks at them, dumbfounded.
Tsukishima
Who the f*** is Perfect Last?
Tsukishima
Are they more important than volleyball?!
Kageyama
Ara? Are you jealous?
Kageyama
Didn't you say volleyball was just a club?
Sexy-satly Dino 🧂🦖
Tch. Shut up, king.
Kageyama
Oh? Is your saltyness getting annoyed?
The five check the band's story and they all get excited.
All

The five of them yell in excitement.
Kiyoko blushes and mumbles.
Kiyoko

Tanaka
Did you say something Kiyoko-san?
Ennoshita

The team cleans up and changes.
Sugawara

Tobio tries to runaway but Suga catches him and drags him with them.
They talk about Perfect Last after arrive at the restaurant and order food.
Tsukishima
Now.... who's Perfect Last?
Kinoshita
Aren't they a famous American band?
Kiyoko, Yachi, Ennoshita, Suga, Noya, and Tadashi yells, their eyes sparkling with anticipation.
That's the only thing the rest of team can say after being startled by their suddenly outburst.
Nishinoya
I heard that one of them is originally from Japan!
Ennoshita
Some fans are saying it's Helio.
Sugawara
Helio's voice sound different from other American singers.
Yamaguchi
And Luke is also Japanese by blood, right?
Yachi
That's right, here, see.
Yachi
He's a mix of three different bloodlines.
Kiyoko
Helio and Ash are halfsies and Isa is Helio's cousin.
Yamaguchi
They've been friends since childhood because of their parents.
Ennoshita
But since Helio live in Japan with his mother...
Ennoshita
He rarely met with them.
The others stare at them in disbelief as the lot talk about their favorite band.
Before their actual food is served, the owner passes out meat buns as appetizers.
{Do restaurants in Japan use appetizers?}
Tears form in Suga's eyes.
Nishinoya
I hope we can see him again.
Tanaka
Yeah... we really need to apologize...
Yamaguchi
You really should.
Kiyoko
Lashing out at him like that...
Yachi
You guys didn't even ask why he was acting like that...
Tsukishima
Heh, would you look at that.
Tsukishima
The king's being quiet now.
Kageyama
Don't call me that and don't talk about it.
Tsukishima
Do you feel guilty for making Shoyo leave in the end?
Yamaguchi
Tsukki that's enough...
Tsukishima
Urusai Tadashi.
The waiter serves their food and they eat.
They eat with feeling a strong tension between the two, followed by silence, until Suga breaks it.
Sugawara
How about we go welcome the band at the airport?
Nishinoya
Sure! That sounds fun and awesome!
Yamaguchi
Are we really gonna get to meet them?
They finish eating and go home to freshen up before heading to the airport.
Later on, they meet up inside, waiting for the band to land.
Tsukishima
¤ I'm tired of standing... ¤
Tsukishima
Yams, I'm gonna go sit down real quick.
Asher (Ash)
I feel tired...
Hinata
Wahhh... we finally landed.
Lucas (Luke)
I want to sleep...
One yawns after the other.
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
Masks on everyone, we can't risk catching the disease.
They put their masks on and walks through the automatic doors.
Fans immediately begin to shout cheerfully, welcoming the band.
The band members walk normally and waves at the fans with a smile.
As they greet their fans, a specific person sitting on a chair catches Shoyo's attention.
Making Shoyo pause all of a sudden.
🌻 Shoyo's Point of View 🌻
They came here this late at night just to welcome us.
Seeing them makes me feel... happy.
🥀 Shoyo turns to his right and sees Kei sitting on one of the chairs. 🥀
🥀 Shoyo suddenly pauses and scans their surroundings. 🥀
🥀 He then spots Tadashi, Yachi, Noya, Ennoshita, Kiyoko, and Suga cheering. 🥀
🥀 Then he notices the rest of the team watching the six nearby. 🥀
W-why are they all here...?

Isabella (Isa, Bella)
Hey 'cuz, you okay?
Hinata
Oh, yeah, I'm fine.
Hinata
I... sorry, I just need to go to the bathroom.
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
Can you hold it for a bit longer?
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
We're almost there.
Jennifer (Jenny, Jen)
We'll be waiting in the car close to where the two cats are waiting.
Hinata
Mm, okay. Don't worry, I won't take long.
Shoyo heads to the bathroom straight away.
Not long after, he heads out, skipping through the halls with his eyes shut closed.
Without noticing, he bumps into something, rather someone and falls on the ground.
He apologizes with his eyes still closed.
Tsukishima
Oh, are you... okay?
