1 The Past,, Part 1
It was late into May, the summer air thick with pollen.Summer break was just around the corner for Shoyo Hinata.
Hinata found it easy to wake up in the mornings, regardless of the time, and sometimes awakes before his alarm goes off. 7 am on a brilliant Saturday morning, sunny yet cool, clearly perfect conditions for volleybal practice!
Hinata's Pov
I woke to the sound of my alarm, and the sunlight shining onto my face through the window slats. I fumbled my hand under my pillow until I found my phone, and dialled Kageyama's number into the purple number pad. As the phone rung, I dressed and walked to the bathroom. The King took 3 calls just to pick up, and was acting scary, just because I woke him up! I brushed my teeth while grunting out an undistinguishable 'good morning Kageyma'. He sighed, and told me not to talk while brushing my teeth, so i had to put our conversation on hold for awhile. It was around quarter to 8, when Tobio mumbled that he needed to end the call.The King has been my secret crush since middle school, when we first played against each other at my first game. Each line of his chiseled face carved into my mind.He mumbled under his breath for a few seconds before going silent.
Kageyama Pov:
My heart was racing. Was this what I really wanted? I wasn't sure. I didn't know what Shoyo would think of me, after i finally spoke up.'H-hey Hinata, m-my girlfriend is calling me. I need to go, buddy. Meet me at the gym in 10 minutes'.I heard a sniffle as I put the phone down. I sighed. This was definitely not what I wanted. I buried my face into my pillow as I answered the phone to Yachi, my girlfriend of around an hour.
Hinata Pov:
I didn't want to, but i couldn't help but cry. Did I mean nothing to him? He's constantly telling me his sexuality, so why is he with a girl? I knew my crush was one sided, but all hope I had for the future had been shattered. I collapsed on to my bed,burying my self under a bundle of blankets, plushies and pillows. I kicked my shoes of and took of my volleyball jacket. I must of lay there for ten minutes max; but it felt like hours. A text notification from Suga sounded and I was dragged into full consciousness.
MommaSuga❤️:
Hey buddy... I heard about Kageyama's new arrangement, I can't imagine how you're feeling right now...Are you still up for practice today,it may lift your spirits? Diachi is just unlocking the gym now, so you can come whenever your ready!
Smoll tangerine✨:
Hey Suga. I'm still coming to practice don't worry, I just needed a few minutes to collect my thoughts... I've not left the house just yet, Ill see you in 10!
And don't worry, I'll pick you up that Spicy Mapo Tofu you order from Ukia's last night, did Tobio order anything?
MommaSuga❤️:
He said he ordered a pork curry, and Yamaguchi said he put in an order for two portions of French fries for him and Tsukishima. See you soon Shoyo!
And that's how I went from wallowing in my nest of comfort, to picking up food for that jerk. I felt like picking up his order would make me come last in the game he didn't know he was playing. Yet I couldn't bring myself to think about disappointing him, after all, he is terrifying when he's pissed off.My feet were heavy and my gym shoes were squelching with water. The sunny morning had faded to a foggy sky and a rain storm. And there I was, carrying my own weight and 2 bags of food, in the pouring rain.
Kageyama pov:
It's been a lot longer then ten minutes, and without my favourite decoy, volleyball practice has gone unbearably slow. Its been a while since I last saw the little carrot top, we've been putting in much needed studying, and many of us have found it hard to balance out studying, our free time, and practice.
It's been around 20 minutes since I texted Shoyo, and he still hasn't arrived. Maybe he decided he didn't want to walk in the rain? Everyone is shooting me looks, apart from Yachi, and my heart aches,why do I miss him so much? I wanted to practice with someone, and tsukki was the first person I saw. Sure-he's an ass hole on his good days, but there's a sting to his words that isn't usually there when he tells me to piss off. Yachi keeps coming over and grabbing me, and staring, and I'm so uncomfortable. I don't know why I said yes to her, first off I'm positive I'm gay and second off, I think I like Shoyo.Suga put the phone down on Yamaguchi as him and Hinata scramble through tbe gym doors, drenched and shivering. I run up to Shoyo absent mindedly and wrap him in my jacket. I have to admit, with his hair wet he looks hot.
Kageyama Pov:
I wrapped the small boy in my jacket, which was huge on him. He stood there with bulging eyes and an open mouth. Then it's like he...snapped?He pulled the jacket of his shoulders and threw it at my face. He walked past me and pushed to my knees. I was so confused.Tears welled at the corners of my eyes as I ran out into the rain.
Hinata pov:
"That Jerk! He thinks he can go around being mean one minute, then nice the other?'' I thought. He stared at me for a minute, then I got really angry. Really angry. I pulled his jacket off of my shoulders and threw it at his stupid face, I tripped as I walked and styled it out like It was actually my plan to push kageyama. He fell to the ground as I stomped to the benches at the back of the room. I turned to look at him as he ran out of the gym and it looked like he was crying.I shouted Suga, Daichi, Yamaguchi and Tsukki over to grab the food they ordered.
*30 minutes have passed*
After everyone finished there meals, they sat giving me looks. I pulled on yamaguchi's sleeve and we walked outside.I asked him why everyone was looking at me. Suddenly, loud curses and sobs filled the air. Sharp bangs followed the ruccus. I let go of Yamaguchi's sleeve and ran to the noise, it was pretty clear to me that it was Kageyama.

Kags Pov :
I ran as far as I could without getting too tired, then ducked into the storage alley behind the gym, so I wouldn't get caught crying. I sat and thought about school and stuff while I had the chance to, then his orange head popped into mine. I began weeping and punching at the alley wall, blood poured down my wrists and stained my shirt. I scuffed my pumps against the wall
