BAM! Kageyama and Hinata's quick attack won the set practice for today. As usual, everybody's doting on Hinata both his teammates for the practice set as well as their opponent.
"Awww I saw it happening but I can't do anything about it, tsk! You're in good shape today as well as Kags!" Sugawara pat Hinata's head while smiling widely. Others quickly tapped Hinata's shoulders, complimenting his performance during practice.
Yamaguchi approached him saying "Great job, our little sunshine!" And walked back beside Tsukishima.
"Tsk! That will again get into his head as usual." Tsukishima mumbled as he drank from his water bottle.
"Gomen Tsukki hahaha! But you know our sunshine did great today though, he deserves everyone's love."
Yamaguchi drank from his water bottle while looking at Hinata who is beaming at everyone, sharing his positive aura and cuddling with whoever wants to be close to him.
"You should try it sometimes." Yamaguchi then picked one corner to stretch since practice is over.
"Nah, I will leave that to you guys. It should be enough for him. Look at him grinning from ear to ear. No sense in me doing that since you all should suffice." Tsukishima glanced at Hinata with obvious disgust.
Hinata looked at their direction and caught Tsukishima's eyes and reaction. Hinata blushed when he caught Tsukishima looking his way.
'Oh my, oh my! He caught me looking. My heart is pounding. Please don't let him notice. Please please please...'
Hinata closed his eyes, composed himself and sat beside his favorite senpai, Tanaka, who is already doing his stretches.
"Oh hey, you did great today." Tanaka changed his position while stretching.
"Thank you Senpai. I just wish everybody feels the same...". Hinata slightly let his anxiety show and Tanaka caught it immediately.
"Oh, I think I know who you're talking about. But that's just his personality. Don't let it get to you. At the end of the day, he's just one. All of us adore you, you know that right?" Tanaka smiled and stood up finishing his stretching routine.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
"Okay listen everyone, Hinata, Yamaguchi and Tsukishima will be cleaning up today. Yamaguchi, here's the key for closing up". Daichi reached out to hand over the keys to Yamaguchi.
"Hey baby sunshine, you can take a rest. I can take your place today since I need to pass some time before meeting up with my family at the mall later." Asahi pinched Hinata's cheeks playfully.
"Aw aw hahaha! I cannot fully accept that offer senpai. But you can help us though, the more the merrier and we can finish earlier! So thank you so much!" Hinata hugged Asahi quickly before starting picking up the balls.
"Tsk, so noisy..." Tsukishima proceeded to the storeroom to get the mop while bringing other chairs to be stored.
Hinata heard him him but did not say anything. Tsukishima has always been irritated with him. No matter if he is loud or quiet, he seems to always despise his presence. That is why he is wary of him whenever he is near. He is scared of him. But a part of him wants Tsukishima to like him. He wants to be friends with everyone on the team. It bothers him because of another reason...
Tsukishima is his type. Tall, blonde, handsome, smart and great body. A body that can envelope him in an instant. Arms that can carry and protect him. A perfect seme.
'Hmm what should I do to get him to at least acknowledge me? I wanna get along with everyone. I need to do something to ease his animosity towards me...'
