Chapter 25

I knocked on the door once again, wondering if my knock my too soft the first time.

"Hold on, I'm coming." I hear through the door while footsteps come towards the door

The door opened and a pair of blue eyes looked down at me, while a shocked expression followed.

"L/n, What are you doing here?" Kageyama asked and I quickly averted my eyes

"You see... I kinda made Akina really mad." I say while staring at the ground

"Really mad?"

"Yea, then we argued for a while before I left her house." I say then add "Now I'm here." I say with a small smile while I looked up at Kageyama

"And you wanna stay here until things calm down?" Kageyama asked and I nodded

"If I could," I say and he sighs before opening the door all the way to let me in

"What happened to your key?" Kageyama asks while he closed the door and followed me into the living room

"I have it, but I didn't just want to walk in." I say while I sit down on the couch and look at the tv before adding "You're watching today's game?" I asked while he sat down next to me

"I was wondering what I could different, so next time we win," Kageyama says while he starts the video again

"You guys played a really good game," I say while I watched as Kageyama's failed attempt at a setter's dump.

"You know-" He started, drawing my attention to him while he stared ahead at the TV "If I hadn't lost my cool, we could have won that."

"It just means we both have room for improvement, so that way at the spring High Preliminary we both will win," I say confidently drawing his attention to me

"That's not how to acted yesterday." He says flatly

"Y-yea, because I get really salty after we lose a match," I say while my cheeks warm up from embarrassment, and Kageyama chuckles

We continue to watch the volleyball game until Kageyama broke the silence

"Why did Akina get so mad at you?" He asked while I continued to watch the game

"Because whenever I got my memories back, I never told her." I said then added, "I just never knew how to tell her."

"How did she know you remembered everything?" He asked and I looked down at my hands

"I talked about things from my past, she also said my style of playing went back to normal," I answer and Kageyama was silent

"I'm just scared of losing her as a friend." I finally realize I was crying, and quickly wipe my tears before Kageyama could notice but a pair of arms wrapped around me pulling me close.

"I'm sure this little fight won't affect your friendship." I hear Kageyama say while my eyelids grew heavy.

-

I woke up in a similar bed I use to know, and quickly scanned the room.

'Nothing has changed.' I think to myself while I put on a pair of fuzzy socks before walking into the kitchen.

"I wonder what I should make," I mumble to myself while I dig through the refrigerator and I go to grab the eggs before I stopped.

I closed the door, while I walked over to Kageyama's door and start banging on the door.

"What?" He mumbled as he opened his door slightly, trying to block the light that was coming from the kitchen.

"I wanted to know if I could use some of your eggs to make breakfast," I said while he lazily rubbed his eye

"As long as I get some." He says then adds "There should be bacon in there too." I nod at his words, while he disappeared into his room.

"You know we have school today?" I ask and I heard him mumble yea, before I walked back into the kitchen to start cooking.

Once I'm close to finishing I hear Kageyama's door open, and a pair of footsteps head towards me.

"It looks good." I hear Kageyama say while his footsteps stop behind me, while he glanced over my shoulder at the food.

"Hey, back up," I say realizing how close we were when I turned around

"Why, are you nervous?" He asked teasingly and I try to push him away from me, but his hands caught mine before I could walk-off

"What-" I start to say, but a pair of lips cut me off and I kiss him back.

His hand left mine and moved to my cheek to gently raise my chin with his thumb to deepen the kiss but I quickly pushed him away.

"Kageyama, what am I to you?" I asked while our eyes meet, but a burning smell quickly made me turn my attention to the bacon.

"Food is done," I mumble while I take the bacon off the burner, and put them on a plate that already had paper towels on it before carrying both of the plates of food over to the table and setting them down.

"I don't know what you mean to me-" He starts to say causing me to look at him "But whenever I see you my heart skips a beat. I do things for you even when I don't want to do, but I'm scared if I get too close I will end up hurting you again... I guess you are that someone I cannot even imagine my life." He admits causing my face to turn bright red

"What about you? What am I to you?"

"You are the one who was always here for me no matter what, I feel really safe whenever you were with me, somebody I can trust and count on," I say in English with a smile, earning a glare from Kageyama

"No, understand"

"You are the one who was always here for me no matter what, I feel really safe whenever you were with me, somebody I can trust and count on." I translate for him while I sit down and began to eat my food and Kageyama joins me

We eat in silence while I quickly finish my food, and clean my plate.

"Wait on me, I just have to change then I will be ready," I say before hurrying off into my room to change into my uniform. I returned back into the living room to join Kageyama who was waiting for me by the door.

"Hurry up, we are going to be late because of you." He says while I quickly slip on my shoes

"At least we don't have volleyball practice," I say while I open the door and Kageyama follows behind me

"Oh yea, I dunno if I will be here tonight," I say while Kageyama closes the door

"You have your key right?" He asks and I nodded

"It's in my bag," I say while we walk together

"If you need to get in, just use your key, its also you're apartment after all." He says and I nod

"Come on we need to hurry, or we really will be late," I say while I grabbed his hand and began to run towards the school.

Once we got near the school gates I let go of Kageyama's hand and slow down.

"Come on, we can't slow down now," Kageyama says while he caught my hand and continued to run towards the school.

"But people are going to get the wrong idea," I say, trying to pull my hand from his

"I don't care." He says while he continued to drag me into the school while multiple eyes followed us.

"Why is Kageyama with her?" I hear girls mumble things through the hall while we ran

'That's right I almost forgot, he has a bunch of fangirls.' I think to myself while I successfully pull my hand from his

"I have to go somewhere first," I say while and Kageyama looked at me with a sadden expression for a second

"I'll see you in class then." He said before walking off

"Seeya," I say before walking towards Akina's class.

I pocked my head into the classroom and wondered where Akina was.

"Nami, do you know where Akina is?" I asked the familiar girl who entered the class

"She called in sick today." She answered and I confusedly looked at her

"Really?" I said and she nodded, and I turned on my heel to leave

"L/n, I would leave her alone for right now," Nami said and guiltily glanced at the ground, before looking at her worriedly

"After school could you check up on her for me," I ask and she nods

"Thank you, I'll see you around Nami," I say before heading towards my classroom, bearly beating the bell

-

"Your fangirls are acting like they want to kill me," I comment to Kageyama while we walk together towards the vending machines

"I'm sure they won't do anything." He says while we turn the corner that leads straight to the vending machines

"I dunno, some of them act a little crazy." I say then add "I have gotten so many threats if I don't break up with you." And he chuckles

"Little do they know, we aren't even together." He says and a hurt expression flashed crossed my face before I laughed a bit.

"What do you want?" He asked while he put some coins into the machines

"I can get my own," I say while I pull out my money, but he presses a button and hands me a drink

"You usually drink this, don't you?" He said while I glanced down at my (Favorite kind) of milk

"Here let me get yours-" I say trying to beat him to the machine, but he was already pressing the button for his

"Then I will treat us next time." I say with a smile while I drive the straw into the carton and take a drink of my milk and add "Thank you, Stalker"

"Your welcome-" He started to say but then realized what I called him "Stalker?"

"I mean only my stalker would be the only one that knows what I like to drink," I say teasingly with a smile

"Yea and only a brat like you wouldn't be grateful." He shot back but before I could say anything the bell rang

We both finished our drinks before throwing them away before heading back to class.

"I'll talk to you later." He says before heading to his seat, while I head to mine.

-

The bell rang indicating that school was over for the day, and I stretched my arms out.

"L/n, remember your helping clean up today." The teacher reminds me and I nod

"See you guys tomorrow," I say to everyone while they left the room, leaving me alone to clean.

I started to set the chairs on the desks when 2 girls walked into the classroom.

"L/n!" A wide-eyed girl said happily with a smile and I only knew them because they sat in the back of my classroom.

"L/n, we can take care of cleaning up. Kageyama is looking for you." The blonde-haired girl said while she took the chair from my hands

"He's looking for me?" I asked in a questioning tone and the girls nodded

"He's was in the gym storage." The blonde-haired girl said

"Hurry, you shouldn't leave him waiting." The wide-eyed girl said while she pushed me out the classroom door.

"I guess it won't hurt to see what's going on," I said to myself while I started to walk towards the gym storage.

"Kageyama?" I said in a questioning tone while I opened the door, only to be grabbed and thrown to the ground, while the door slammed shut behind us.

"Who the-" I started to say but the cold liquid being poured on me made me stop

"Who do you think you are?" A feminine voice

"You're a nobody hanging out with Kageyama!" Another voice yelled

"Why do you think you deserve to be with Kageyama?" A lower female voice said

"You're not a hero, you're trash."

"You will never be anything."

"You're only dragging Kageyama down!"

"Just leave him alone!"

They continued to say things, while I sat there feeling useless and unable to move.

"L/n!" I hear a familiar voice call while he struggled to catch his breath.

"K-Kageyama- What are you doing here?" I hear one of the girls scramble to explain what was going on.

I didn't even look up, I just sat there staring at the ground but I knew he was staring at me. I couldn't even tell if I was crying because the water continued to drip down down my face, while I stared blankly at the ground.

I hear as footsteps came towards me, and wrap his arms around me

"Sorry, it took me so long." He mumbled into my ear while he helped me stand up

"No, it's fine," I mumble back while he starts to drag me out of the storage room

"Kageyama!" One of the girls yelled making us pause at the entrance

"Why would choose her over us?" The lowered voice girl asks and Kageyama glared back at the girls

"Because my girlfriend is perfect just the way she is."
