The unpleasant and noisy snoring at his left broke Asahi Azumane's slumber. His eyes flutter open, examining the blurry image of the dark ceiling above him. He shifts his body to wake his muscles in order to tilt his head to the side and peer at Yu Nishinoya. The self-proclaimed "partner in crime" has his mouth open, a stream of drool leaving his mouth, and his limbs sprawled across the futon, a foot inches away from crossing on to Asahi's. He closes his eyes and attempts to return to sleep, then suddenly his body sends signals to relieve his bladder. Unable to ignore such demands, he sits up with his arms stretching above his head; as he comes to a stand, he notices every futon is occupied except two. Taking a gander at the visible faces, he concludes the two missing are Shoyo Hinata and Tobio Kageyama. It doesn't strike him as odd as he presumes the two are getting a head start in their personal practice, a constant pastime of those two it seems.

Asahi leaves the classroom that houses the Karasuno team and travels to the closest men's restroom. After he relieves himself, he proceeds back towards the classroom. A quarter way there, he becomes increasingly curious about the disappearance of Hinata and Kageyama. Aware that if they are caught using the gym without permission it would lead to some sort of punishment; perhaps the consequences would not be great, but making them sit out during the practice games, or personal practice would upset both. He decides it would be best to find them before anyone else does.

Stepping out into the night sends a shiver down his spine. The cool, crisp air wraps around his skin, causing bumps on his skin to protrude in defiance. He wraps his arms around himself to retain his heat and he jogs quickly along the pathway to the gym. Now five feet away from the gym's open doors he finds the lights are out. Asahi slows his pace to a stop, blinking in surprise; it suddenly dawns on him that it's possible they left the campus. He tenses up at the thought, realizing that their punishment would be ten times worse if their secret departure were revealed; all hope seems suddenly lost for the missing teammates. Unable to do anything more, Asahi turns to head back.

"Kageyama!"

Hinata's shrill shriek startles Asahi; he jumps forward a foot, eyes wide-if he wasn't awake before, he is now. The shock recedes and relief sweeps over him knowing Hinata and Kageyama are on campus. He looks over his shoulder to the gym, seeing the open doors to the dark gym makes him ponders what Hinata and Kageyama are doing in the confines of the dark, he decides to investigate.

The closer Asahi came towards the door, the usual sounds of a volleyball being tossed around are heard: grunts, huffing, and sharp smacks. Perhaps this is a new training technique for them, or something. Asahi reaches the door and pulls back the green net to peer inside. His mouth opens to call out to their names when Hinata's words abruptly stop his action.

"Mo-more, m-more."

Asahi squints his eyes to adjust to the ill lit room. After a second, he sees two shadowy figures in the center of the gym. He would have approached the two except their positions were far too perplexing to comprehend. One was hunched over the other and it seems as if a pair of legs were in the air. The first thought that crossed his mind is one of them passed out and now the other is elevating his legs to get blood flow back to his brain. The theory wasn't sound as there were two major, questionable flaws: why is the one who is doing the elevating on his knees instead of standing up straight, and why put the head in between the legs?

As he stared, the image became clearer; hands were wrapped around the shins, the one on the ground has his backside off the ground, and the shadows were rocking back and forth. It gradually dawns on him: there wasn't a medical emergency, this...this was...sex.

Asahi nearly gasps, though he places his hand over his mouth to stifle the sound. Unsure of what to do, he decides to escape. He is careless in his run, creating echoing footfalls as he sprints towards the main building.
