wtf is this help me
7:49 am
"Oh, I think I've found myself a cheerleader, she is always right there when I need her-"
"HAH! WAH! WHY IS HE THROWING A GARBAGE CAN AT US?!" Hinata woke up with a jump and a grunt, flopping off of his bed and carrying his fluffy white blanket with him as he hit the hardwood floor with a loud thud.
"Oh jeez, it's just my phone, um, wow." He blushed to himself in his room, feeling embarrassed even though no one was able to see him or hear him, especially since his mom had work early that morning.
Right before the ringtone stopped, Hinata answered the phone and didn't even look at the name.
"Hey, hi, hello! It's too early for this, why are you calling me?!" He shouted into the phone at the mysterious unknown person who called him at this ungodly hour.
"Wow, Shouyou, you really suck at waking up on time. It's only 7:50, but I figured I should call you to make sure you get up. Lord knows you would have your alarm set for 8 and you wouldn't get up until 11."
"Noyyaaaaa! I was going to get up at 8, I swear!" Hinata tried to defend himself but his friend knew better than that.
"Alright, I'll bet you ten bucks you didn't even have your alarm set."
"Well, you see, I wouldn't make that bet because I would sort of, kind of lose, hehe. Oops."
"I knew it! Don't even try to say I don't know you, because clearly I dooooo!" Noya yelled into his phone, making Hinata almost drop his phone on his floor since it was really loud and he was still kind of sprawled out awkwardly and half asleep.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Whatever you say. Anyway, why did you wake me up again?" Hinata questioned as he stood up and threw his blanket back onto his bed. Noya always called him, usually just to chit-chat about random things, but he didn't understand what was so important at 7:52 am on a Tuesday.
"Ughhhhhh," Noya groaned, and Hinata imagined him face-palming and making a 'are-you-kidding-me' kind of face, as if he could see him through the phone, "I can't believe you forgot already. Did you really forget or are you just messing with me?"
"I could just be messing with you, hehehe," Hinata smirked and walked over to his dresser to get his outfit for the day. "I'm not though, I honestly can't remember why you would be calling me this early. It better not be just to gossip."
"No, it isn't. Jeez, I guess you really do have a shitty memory. We're going to the beach, remember? We'll play volleyball and get ice cream and see if we can pick up some chicks!"
"But what about Asahi-"
"Shhhh, we'll just pretend to pick up chicks. That's what I meant, okay? Or maybe we really will, who knows?"
Hinata can practically hear the smirk and the wink he was pretty sure Noya was doing at that moment.
"Whatever you say. So, who's bringing the volleyball? Me or you?"
"Oh, I was actually thinking we could go buy a brand new one! That would be fun wouldn't it? Later on we can invite the rest of the crew, or we can just see if we meet anyone there who also loves volleyball!" Noya chimed and this time Hinata really could hear the smile and happiness in his voice.
"Alright, alright, am I picking you up then? Or are you stealing your moms car?" They both couldn't help but laugh at that one, even though it was completely stupid.
"I think you know the answer to that, kid." Noya said.
"I'll be over in a half hour, okay?"
"I'll be ready."
After they hung up, it didn't really take long for Hinata to make his bed and get his clothes on. He chose a dark blue and white striped tank top, and dark blue swimming trunks, because they were going to the beach after all.
He quickly made himself two chocolate chip waffles and drank a glass of milk before grabbing his wallet and keys and heading to his car.
It didn't take him long to get to Noya's house, normally on a busy traffic day it would take about fifteen minutes, but considering that it was summer and still fairly early in the day, there were only a few cars in their small town, so it only took ten minutes.
Hinata arrived at Noya's house around 8:20 that morning. After beeping a few times and waiting for at least five minutes, Hinata decided to shut the car off and go fetch his friend himself, since a phonecall and beeps weren't enough.
"Noya, come on, we have to go now-" Hinata wished the fires of hell would come up and take away his eyes, or he wished he could erase his memory from the image of his friend panting and moaning on top of his other friend who was also panting and moaning.
"Um, listen, we can explain-" Asahi began, quickly covering up their bottom halves with a nearby blanket.
"You weren't supposed to be here for ten more minutes!" Noya yelled, blushing profusely as he quickly put his shirt on and avoided eye contact with both Hinata and Asahi.
"Well, I figured since you were so impatient on the phone that I would hurry, and, and like, there were barely any cars, so it was faster! I'll um, I'll go wait in the car, you guys can finish whatever, just please don't come into my car being a horn-dog, because then you'll be in a bad mood and ruin everything and-."
"Just, chill, please. But really, how am I supposed to finish when you completely ruined the mood?! Ugh, whatever." Noya sighed heavily and got up off of his boyfriend's lap, apologizing silently with a compassionate look, and then a wink, which was a promise to continue later when he got home.
"Well sorry, you forgot to inform me that you were trying to get a quickie in right after you were pressuring me to hurry up so we could go!"
Asahi attempted to calm them down by slowly putting his hands up and laughing nervously, "You guys, please, don't do this. . .? You're supposed to go to the beach and have fun. I'll see you when you get home later, Noya. Okay? I'm not mad about anything, go have fun please. If you want me to pick you up later I will, you know all you have to do is call me." He smiled warmly at Noya and Hinata groaned.
"Ughhhh, you guys are so damn cute but so goddamn disgusting at the same time."
"Thanks!" Noya smiled and disregarded the fact that Hinata had just called them disgusting. He knew he only meant well.
"Alright, well I guess I'll see you later then. I'll text you throughout the day. And if you want, later come down to the beach to hang out with us! It's only like, what, a half hour from here? It shouldn't take that long." Noya kissed his boyfriend on the cheek as the taller one nodded and then Noya closed the door silently.
"I can't believe I just saw that, I'm scarred for life. It's like someone just burned that image into my eyes and brain forever. I want it to be gone!"
"Oh quit being overdramatic! At least we weren't completely naked, ya know? That I could understand you being terrified of."
"True true, that's a good point. Now lets go! Today's gonna be a fun day."
"So, which store are we going to to buy a new volleyball?"
"Meh, I don't know. Let's just go to Walmart. It's literally three minutes away." Noya suggested and Hinata agreed with a soft 'mhm'.
After picking up their brand new ball, they headed for the beach. Instead of it taking a half hour to get there, it was closer to an hour due to slow-moving traffic because of ongoing construction work. Finally though, after listening to Noya lip-sync to almost an entire Ke$ha album, they arrived at their glorious destinatiom, the beach.
Literally jumping out of the car and holding the volleyball to the side of his waist, Noya began frantically showing how happy and excited he was to be here again. "Wow, it's already the middle of June and we haven't even been here yet! It's even more beautiful than it was last year, oh my god, Shouyou, can you see how pretty the water looks! And they even added more shops to the boardwalk, we have to get ice cream, and-"
"Jeez, Noya, I haven't seen you this excited in forever. I guess, if you want to get ice cream now, that's where we'll start. Then we can walk around, shop maybe, or if you want to play volleyball first we can do that."
Noya smiled eagerly, which caused Hinata to smile as well.
They walked on the boardwalk until they found a cute little ice cream stand.
"Can I please have one small vanilla cone, and a small chocolate cone for this one," Hinata said pointing to his friend. "Thank you." He smiled at the girl who handed him his change and then gave him the two cones he ordered.
As they were walking away Noya smirked devilishly.
"Oh god, what is it this time?"
"That girl totally checked you out!"
"N-no, she definitely didn't! You're just saying that to make me feel weird." Truthfully, Hinata didn't feel attracted to her in any way, but he didn't really believe in that 'love-at-first-sight' crap, so he knew to feel attracted he would've had to make conversation with her and see how her personality is.
"She was all smiley and blushy, she probably wanted you to get her number or something! You know some girls are too shy to ask."
"True, but I just don't think you're right. She just smiled was all, when you work with people, you learn how to fake smile. That's definitely what that was."
"It can't be helped, I guess. Either way, we're going to find you a girlfriend here today!"
They ate their ice cream peacefully as they walked down into the sand and couldn't tear their gaze off of the shimmering ripples of the ocean.
As they approached the shore, they heard faint pleas for help. They were curious as to what that was, or who that was, for that matter, and why they were begging for help.
"H-Hinata, look! Do you see that person all the way out there?! They must be the one screaming for help! Is there even a lifeguard around here?!"
They looked around frantically until they spotted the lifeguard stand, where they quickly ran up and notified the lifeguard of the situation. They were going to try to save the person, but then decided it would be better if someone more qualified to do things like saving lives was the one to risk theirs.
"H-hey, I think there's someone drowning! Hurry, please, they sound really scared, we were going to help but then we-" Hinata rambled on and on until he was cut off by the quick and short, "shut up!" by the lifeguard, who according to Hinata's inner monologue, was very, very attractive.
All lifeguards were though, right? And all police officers, and nurses and doctors, and firefighters and anyone who saves people? Why was this guy so different though?
As the lifeguard rushed down the steps of the stand he was sitting in, he accidentally tripped on the second-to-last step and literally ate sand. Hinata and Noya both covered their mouths, trying to repress the feeling of wanting to laugh their asses off at this guy who seemed like he was trying so hard to be perfect and failed miserably.
Even though he fell, he was quick to scramble up and rush into the wavy waters to save the person. It only took about a minute, but Hinata and Noya watched in awe as the man who seemed so clumsy a second ago, expertly pulled the drowning soul out of the deep waters and onto the shore. It was amazing really.
"Alright, well, as long as that person is okay now, do you want to go play a game of two-man volleyball? Just us? There isn't even anyone over at the net, so I think we're fine. For now at least, but we definitely have the court rights since we'll be there first."
"Yeah, lets go over there now, I bet I'll win!"
"Ooh, a bet? How much?"
"Ten bucks? I think that sounds pretty reasonable."
They conversed about many things about volleyball or related to it as they walked away from the lifeguard stand and more toward the sandy court and the cheap net. As they were walking though, Hinata couldn't help himself from turning around and looking for the mop of black hair, hoping to get a glimpse of the attractive lifeguard who professionally saved that person who was drowning.
"Don't tell me you're looking for that lifeguard."
"What?" Hinata asked, trying to play dumb, and apparently succeeding.
"Huh? Oh, never mind. It's not important. Let's just get this game started!"
Alright, so this was literally from a small spark of imagination and inspiration since it is summer here. I was thinking of the beach today, and daydreaming about volleyball idiots, and then this was born. I'm sure you can tell that I've only watched like 10 episodes of Haikyuu, hahaha oops. The characters are probably very OC, I hope they're not, but some things can't be helped. I'm gonna watch more episodes of it tonight, but I just had that small spark of like a, "what if" and I just had to write at that very moment. I apologize if this isn't what you were looking for, but as for the three hours I spent writing this, they were enjoyed, so I truly hope you enjoyed this too!
Love you guys, you're all the best. 3
