Third
Unconsciously, Kageyama had bitten his teeth together for too long. He relaxed his chin and tried to focus on the unresolved equation.
Someone had kissed Hinata. But Hinata apparently didn't like it. What meant that the kiss was indifferent.
´ The homework is on page 80´, the math teacher said, and Kageyama woke up to reality.
The classmates around him packed their bags fast and hurried to clubs and homes.
"My head hurts," Hinata complained and rubbed his orange hair, "I don't understand solid geometry."
"Don't try to think so hard," Kageyama snorted and waved the bag over his shoulder.
They walked together towards the shoe lockers.
´Tsukki promised to give me a little help before team practices´, Hinata said when he opened his own locker.
Shoes dropped loudly on the floor from Kageyama's hands.
´Tsu-Tsukki?´ he stammered. ´What about Yachi? Isn´t she better at teaching and… being nice human being. ´
Hinata tied his shoelaces and answered:
"Yachi said Tsukki is better in mathematics. And what's more strange, Tsukki even agreed to help me. He even promised to show me how flying volleyball is an example of parabola or something. ´
Kageyama´s teeth tightened together.
´I can show you how a ball flies. ´
´You suck at math´, Hinata pointed out and marched to the door, "let´s go, or else I won't be able to do the homework before the practices."
Kageyama joined the study session with Tsukki and Hinata. Further lesson would not be a bad thing. On the other hand, Tsukishima's sarcastic comments made him feel angry.
´What, Your Highness doesn´t know how to do this… either?´
´ I´d have approached the problem a bit differently… Then… That´s a royal way.´
Hinata followed with interest as Tsukki drew a co-ordinate system on the paper and explained that the parabola that was facing down was like an arc of a flying volleyball.
What if… What if it was actually Tsukishima who kissed Hinata?
No way in hell.
But if… Tsukishima clearly enjoyed seeing how Kageyama got irritated.
´Okey then, get ready! ´ Daichi commanded from the doorway. ´We´ll have a training match next week. Coach just told me. Don´t waste any time. ´
´Against who?´ Hinata asked.
´Coach Ukai will tell it later´, Daichi answered. ´No, change quickly. ´
´Yei´, Hinata whooped and took of his collar shirt.
Suddenly, Kageyama realized how easy target naïve and curious Hinata was.
Anyone could lure Hinata with him if only the one was holding a volleyball in front of him.
Anyone could see Hinata without a shirt if they just joined him in the locker room.
One way or the other, Kageyama would find out who kissed Hinata.
