~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You yawned as the team loaded onto the bus. Leaving at night resulted in you feeling tired and sleepy. Rubbing your eyes, you stuffed your hands in your jacket. You heard Daichi going on about how you weren’t allowed to stand or walk when the bus was moving and all that boring stuff. You were ready to just get on the bus and pass out.
Your droopy eyes perked up at the sight of green hair and freckles. You felt a slight surge of awake-ness. Maybe it’s bcause you were sleepy and weren’t thinking straight but the thought of sleeping on Yamaguchi’s shoulder sounded really nice now. So, leaving your spot standing next to your childhood friend, Ennoshita, you marched on over to Yamaguchi.
A tap on his shoulder got his attention as you smiled at him, “Hey” you greeted. His cheeks flushed red at the sight of you but went unnoticed under the cover of the dark night/ early morning. He stammered, “Hi, do you need something?”
“Wanna sit beside me?” you offered. His shouders slumped slightly before he replied, “Ah sorry but um, I’m sitting with Tsukki” he said as he rubbed the back of his neck.
“Oh okay” you mumbled dejectedly, “just thought I’d ask”
You walked back to Ennoshita, telling him what happened and sitting with him on the bus. He comforted you through snickers, hearing about the pathetic rejection you went though. You hit him on the shoulder and pouted in your seat but you were honestly glad he was there to cheer you up. You were so caught up in giggles that you didn’t notice the jealous gaze of a certain green-haired freckled boy.
He huffed in annoyance seeing how much you laughed with Ennoshita. He crossed his arms at the thought that he missed the chance for that to be him. He wanted you to laugh at his jokes. Tsukishima noticed and spoke up, “Why didn’t you just sit with her? She asked you didn’t she?”
“Yeah but I said I was sitting with you” he admitted
“Well that was a mistake. I can survive without you, y’know?” he sighed at his friend’s dependency, “Well, it’s your problem. Look, it seems like they’re getting pretty cozy with each other” he motioned to you and your seatmate as he put on his headphones and closed his eyes
Yamaguchi’s head snapped to look at you. You were leaning on Ennoshita’s shoulder, hugging his arm as you two dozed off. His blood boiled as his eyes looked away. He crossed his arms and shut his eyes, not wanting to see you with someone else.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You yawned as Ennoshita shook you awake, you whining and not wanting to move. You reluctantly unlatched yourself from his arm and he pulled you up to walk with him out of the bus. You said your greetings and thanks to the other teams for inviting Karasuno’s volleyball team to the camp.
You weren’t a part of the team. Most people assume you’re a manager with how much time you spend there but you aren’t. Shimizu said you might as well join but you were already part of the calligraphy club so you kindly refused. You spent your free time helping the team and even went to Karasuno to follow your childhood friend. Ennoshita and other friends and family said you could go to a better school but you wanted to follow him, seeing how close you were they let you do whatever you want. And yes you were very smart and had high grades so you could do anything you want.
You followed the team as they showed you where you would sleep and do this and that. You could feel someone’s stare burning the back of your head as you walked alongside your best friend but considering how Yamamoto reacted to girl you assumed it was him or someone else from another team.
What you didn’t notice was how Yamaguchi was planning to get your attention so he could get any amount of alone time with you. He told Tsukishima what he wanted to do but he just didn’t care as usual. That didn’t stop Yamaguchi from wanting to talk to you, preferably confess before Ennoshita tries anything.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
His first attempt was after the group’s first penalty. After jogging up the hill you and the other managers were handing out water bottles. He wanted you to give him his but Shimizu was the one to do it. Others would be very pleased to be handed water by Shimizu (like Tanaka and Nishinoya) but he was somewhat disappointed. Ennoshita was on the other side of where the team was standing, you making light chatter with him while he cooled off. You even wiped his forehead from sweat with a small towel, scolding him for something he couldn’t care less about. He pouted as you didn’t even take notice of anything he did, not that he did much but he was still upset.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The second attempt was when It was your turn serving dinner. He blushed at how cute you looked serving the other hungry boys, them jokingly asking for a bigger portion and you complying cheerfully. You even made cookies and gave it to some who begged for it. Even if you said they should eat healthy while training, you agreed to a small treat after dinner. Giggling, you got to Yamaguchi’s seat and gave him his meal.
He only realized he was still staring when you brushed nothing off your apron asking, “What? Is there something on my clothes?” you asked, looking from your collar to the hem of of the apron. He turned red from embarrassment and shook his head, “No!” he squeaked.
He hoped you would make small talk with him but you just nodded and walked off the serve someone else. He was overcome with what you would jokingly call ‘Much sad’. He chuckled at the memory of you telling Daichi that that was what you had when he asked what was wrong, before going back to sulking.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The third attempt was when he did extra training. It was night and Ennoshita stayed behind too, of course, and you were with him. Yamaguchi stood next to Ennoshita in hopes that you’ll notice him as they both practiced serves. He was still trying to master a jump float serve and wanted you to be impressed if when he did it correctly.
He threw the ball into the air and hit it with his palm. His determination faltered slightly when he realized he didn’t hit the ball hard enough. It went lower than expected and got caught in the net, before falling to the floor. He felt even more down when he saw a ball swiftly go above the net and hit the the wooden floor on the other side. Then, he heard cheers from a voice that made his heart leap, except the cheers weren’t for him
“Ennoshita nice serve!” you flailed your hands in the air while jumping. Ennoshita thanked you shyly as Yamaguchi sighed. Maybe he should stop trying to get your attention. It wasn’t working anyway.
Defeated, he trudged back to where the team was staying for the week. Little did he know, you saw him looking discouraged and wanted nothing more than to ask him what’s wrong. I mean, the only reason you hung around Ennoshita so much recently is so that you could see Yamaguchi a lot more too, forcing him to pracitce serves with him so you could watch.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The rest of the week you noticed that Yamaguchi didn’t talk to you anymore. He didn’t even interact at all. Every time you were handing out water bottles, he would get one from the girl farthest from you and walk the other way.
By the time the training camp was over he had been avoiding you without noticing. This time it was your turn to feel dejected. You didn’t know why he was acting like that. You were literally clueless.
So what did you do? You forced Ennoshita to go find out. Hiding behind him, you look over his shoulder seeing Yamaguchi talking with Tsukishima. You watched as the taller blonde walked away, leaving his friend to help pthe managers pack. Ennoshita has been whispering to you, asking what he should do and getting frustrated at your lack of response. You shushed him as you waited for a moment when it would seem natural for Ennoshita to approach him.
“What are you doing?” A voice came from behind you
You yelped and jumped away, releasing your grip from your best friend’s shoulders. “N-nothing!”
“Uhuh...” he mumbled, “Y’know, you don’t have to be this sneaky. He regretted not sitting beside you and you didn’t notice him trying to catch your attention, it’s that simple, and stupid” he mumbled the last part loud enough for you to hear.
Ennoshita cheered and pushed you off his back, “Yay I don’t have to fix your problem anymore” he clapped his hands and put on a sickly sweet smile. You scoffed at him playfully and told him he could leave. He went to the already walking away Tsukishima wanting to pick on him, suggesting they sit together seeing as he knew what you were gonna do next.
And you knew it too. You took a deep breath and let it go, shaking the nerves away from your hands. You approached him slowly, him not noticing until your footsteps were near enough. His head turned to you in time for you to meet his eyes, a red tint staining both your faces.
“So, hey, I was-”
“Do you think we can-”
You both chuckled awkwardly. Speaking at the same time? Such a cliche.
“You go first” you offered
He nodded and finished his sentence, “Do you think we can sit next to each other?”
A giggle came from your lips and made him blush harder, “I was gonna ask the same thing”
“O-Oh! Well then I um,” he threw the last bag in with the others, “I’m all done” he said with a shaky smile
You smiled back and held your hand out, “Now, shall we?” you asked in the same way someone would ask a girl to dance. He, in an embarrassed manner, took your hand and you led him to the bus.
You both got seats near the back, Ennoshita and Tsukishima in across the seats behind you. You and Yamaguchi chatted and laughed. Everyone noticing the shy pinch server with his crush. Tanaka and Nishinoya desperately wanted to tease you two but rethinked when they saw Daichi’s deadly glare on them.
Eventually you yawned and rested your head on his shoulder, fully aware of what you were doing and going far enough to place your hand on his thigh. You felt his body heat increase and felt his trembling. His confidence did come back though, after you grabbed his sweaty hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze. He then rested his head on yours, closing his eyes in attempt to ignore all the eyes staring at them. You both dozed off quickly after, subconsciously cuddling closer in your sleep.
~Bonus ending~
Tanaka and Nishinoya were snapping pictures, holding back from guffawing and teasing. Sugawara was holding Dachi back from walking in a moving bus, the latter whisper-yelling commands to stay quiet. Hinata was thrilled for Yamaguchi, commenting on how he wants a girl to do that with him, followed by Kageyama’s retort that he’ll never get a girlfriend. The coach and advisor were snickering at the groups antics.
“Isn’t it cute” said Ennoshita, pulling Tsukishima from his focus on the trees outside.
Tsukishima grimaced at the sight, “Disgusting”
★﹒₊‧they guys that fall for the silent type so when u start rambling on about something, weather it's something exciting or a shitty day at work/school, they pull away from whatever they're doing no matter how important bc hearing you talk is their most favorite thing in the universe.
