Chapter 4: Growing feelings
Notes:
This time its Hinatas POV.
Next Chapter is Oikawa's~
Sorry about some grammar errors and all, Its almost 12 a.m, (My only free time to write X3) and I don't have an editor-san ^_^'
We wonnnnn! I can't stop screaming to myself! GWAAHHHH Im so happy! We are going to the Nationals! It feels like a dream up until now!
After the party last night, which aren't that much of a party because we are all worn out, Coach Ukai decided to take a 5 days' rest before we resume our practice. But I can't take a day off after winning! I'll go to the gym today, I know Kageyama will be there! Of course he will! He will be there!
I rush to prepare myself to go to the school. I'm too much excited to see Kageyama! I mean to spike his perfect tosses! Yeahhhh!
"Onii-chan! Where are chuu going?" Natsu look up to me with her puppy eyes. She's cute!
"To the gym! To play with Kageyama!"
"You always play with Kagechama! And you're always happy~ I wanna play with him too, Onii-chan!"
"No Natsu, I'm the only one who can play with Kageyama!" Of course, it's only me who can spike his god-like quick-toss, Natsu can't handle that! Even that Oikawa can't handle Kageyama! I'm the only one who can!
"So selfish Onii-chan!" She said in a crying voice and walks out.
"You will understand someday Natsu! When you grow up!" I smile to myself, feeling like I'm a mature brother.
"Mom, I'm heading out!"
"Take care Shouyo!"
I run towards the door and get on my bike. I pedal it with the fastest pedal I can do! I'm really excited to see Kageyama!
I almost trip when I reach the school gates. I jump to get off my bike and fly towards the gym. It's close. WHAT? It's already 8:00 a.m. why is it still close? What to do, what to do!
Ah! phone!
*Dialing Suga-senpai…* after some time, he finally picks up.
"Suga-Senpaiii!"
"Oh, Hello Hinata….Good morning." His voice is crashing a bit, he just woke up!
"Senpai, did I wake you up? Sorry about that! I was wondering why the gym is still close and where are the others?"
"You're in the gym? Haha very energetic as usual. I admire that about you, Uhm, but we have 5 days break right? You can take a rest too, Hinata. I think all the others are still having a rest as well."
"Sure then Senpai. Thank you!"
We ended the call and I am very sad about this! Waah does this mean 5 days without seeing Kageyama! That's hard to imagine!
"Oi…dumbass."
My eyes widen suddenly and I turn around quickly.
"Kageyamaaaa!" He is wearing his usual outfit, that jacket and black jogging pants.
"Why is the gym close? Where are the others?"
We really are thinking the same thing! He asks the same exact words I ask Suga-senpai! And he's here just like what I've hope for; sometimes I am surprised myself how the two of us are really synchronize!
"I called Suga-san, they are taking the break today as well as the others. But I can't take a break after winning yesterday!"
"Same here."
"I'm even looking forward to spike your genius tosses!"
"Same."
We sigh at the same time. See we really are the best duo ever! And that makes me laugh! It's so fun to think about us!
"What are you laughing about, dumbass."
"WE ARE SO GOOD TOGETHER! HAHA"
"What?!"
He blushes, Oh gosh, now that I've said it, that sounds really intimate! Right now, he is glaring at me, trying to ask what the hell did I just say. I don't know! It just….. just came out of my mouth!
"I-I'm s-saying,,,, WHOSHU You are an idiot Kageyamaaa!"
Waah I'm so embarrass I wanna disappear! I feel my cheeks are burning! I know my face is super red now! Waaah I'm really shy nowwww
"Huhh?! You're the idiot here!"
"You are! I came earlier than you! I win today!" My voice is unstable! Oh noooo!
"We didn't even race!"
"Fine, then let's race now! One, two, threeeee!" then he follows me as I charge to run. He is always gonna be someone who will catch up to me, and me is that someone who will always catch up him. We will always chase each other. Im so happy and embarrass at the same time. Lately I've been feeling like I'm flying high when I'm with Kageyama… Waaah why am I thinking like this! After some time, we have reached the riverside.
"I win... again…. I'm … 5 times … ahead… of .. you now…."
He keeps winning lately as well! Because of my thoughts distracting me every time we race!
"I…. will…. get…. you….. next time…."
I look at him breathing heavy. The way he catches his breath is so… intense….What's this, it's like a slow-mo watching him. Those round blue eyes shining like a diamond, His sweats falling gracefully at the sides of his face, at his neck, at that Adams apple… if I could be a sweat now, then I can travel his face and neck as well…
"What are you staring for?!" He said, breathing just fine right now. How long did I stare at him? OHHH GOSH. I'M REALLY GONNA BURST RIGHT NOW THEN DISAPPEAR LIKE A BALLON THAT POPS THEN GO SWOOSH!
"Hey! You're turning red! Are you over-heating because of the run?"
He is coming forward to me and I cannot do anything, I feel im pa-ra-ly-ze. WHYYYY
"I-im f-fineee!" I said desperately. My heart is beating so fast I can't think anymore. When he reaches me, we are face to face and he checks my forehead. The way he touch my forehead is so soft im gonna die. I push his hands away immediately.
"Hey! I'm checking if you have a fever! You're really red now you know."
"I SAID I'M FINE ALREADY!" I blurt out loudly while closing my eyes. How I wish I can calm myself now. But knowing he is right in front of me, the nervousness is ten times the nervousness I felt yesterday at the finals.
"….Tss."
He is now cursing! I know he is already irritated. I open my eyes and see him pouting and looking away. T-that's really cute.. when he pouts… it somehow calms me.
"I-I'm really fine… sorry for shouting…."
"Yeah… You're still tired from yesterday's event. That's okay." Waah Kageyama gave me a reason for being like this! Thank you Kageyammaaaa , you just save me from all of this embarrassment I'm feeling.
"Yeah,,, you are right… Maybe I'm still tired…."
"You don't have to run that fast if you don't feel well."
"But I cannot lose to you!"
"I won't count todays win, since you're not your best when we race."
"Woah, when did you become considerate of others, King!" That's something like Tsukki will say in this Kageyama-is-actually-trying-to-be-human moments.
"Just now! And why do you sound like Tsukishima!"
Our minds are really connected and great we are arguing just like the normal times.
"Haha!" Now I can laugh normally.
He offers his tumbler to me, looking at me with those worrying eyes. He is not always good at communicating but he is really kind.
"It's water. Drink it." Kageyama said. And so I did even though I have mine in my bag, it tastes more than just water. Knowing that he drinks in this tumbler gives me butterflies in my stomach. It's like… indirect kiss! Waahhh
"T-thanks…." I return it to him and our fingers touch each other's slightly. I'm electrified by that!
*classic ringtone rings~~~*
Kageyama brings out his phone. Someone is calling him this early in the morning? Hmm. His parents are in abroad and he is living alone, then who will call him?
"Excuse me Hinata, I need to get this one."
He turn his wide broad back and walks a bit away from me. As he is walking away, I heard him saying "Oikawa-san".
