Chapter 3
Don't get distracted!
She assumed her position in the front, facing Tsukishima. He looked down on her, trying to read her every movement. She hadn't delivered a single spike so far in the game, so why was she standing in the wing spiker's position?
The blonde girl threw the ball up and served. The serve was so powerful that daichi had some struggle receiving it. The ball returned to the other side of the court.
The twin who was thought to be an additional spiker ran up to set the ball.
"Kaeshi-chan! Its up to you!" She sets the ball not as well as kageyama, but with the same precision.
"Understood", the tiny girl responded. Tsukishima jumps up in front of her, to block the small girl.
If her jump wasn't astonishing before, she was practically flying now. One thing that threw Tsukishima off guard was that she was left-handed. He immediately moved his hands to the other side. It was too late. She had jumped so high, she could see the top of the blonde's spikey, unkempt hair
The ball struck the floor and a whistle could be heard, signaling the point for Iwate.
Kaeshi landed and looked up at Tsukishima, his face twisted with irritation.
She smirked and replied in a "hmph".
It was Iwate's ball again and they boys saw the same play. They had missed that point too. Now the score was 24 to 7. The Karasuno team was becoming more frustrated.
The next point would be game. Iwate's ball again and the boys see the same play. With every available blocker, they go to cover the tiny girl. She jumped but felt it was short.
Instead of jumping above their heads like last time, she was just below their nose. When she looked up, she was face to face the blonde glasses-wearing boy.
She lost composure and freaked out. Loosing her train of thought she spike it right into their block. While doing with, she slightly grazes the bottom of the hand of the blonde boy.
"Nice Try!" her teammates yell back at her while they get the rebound. The other spiker on the girl's team ended up scoring the winning point.
She looked at her hand. She felt a strange tingle on it. Not from spiking the ball, but from the little contact she had with the glasses-wearing giant.
She pinched her cheeks, as her face grew red with embarrassment.
What are you think Kaeshi?! You have to be focused!
She cursed herself for getting so distracted. Even if he was exactly her type, and incredibly handsome, and his glare just sent shivers down her spine and WHAT WAS SHE THINKING?!
