My match had ended. My heart was in my throat and my knees were buckling beneath me. I had won the second set with much more confidence. 6-4.

The girl I was facing didn't let up. Not even for a second. I had to admit her shots were killer. Her serves became more intense and accurate as the games progressed.

But, once my rhythm started, there was no stopping me. The final point ended with one of my signature cross court shots. It took everything for me to hold in a triumphant scream.

Hinata on the other hand, had to clap his hands over his mouth to hold back a yell. When I looked over, he was bouncing with excitement.

We both approached the net and shook hands. Then, she finally spoke, "Good game. Didn't expect you to make a turnaround like that.."

"What do you mean?" I asked irritated.

"I dunno, it just felt like you were elsewhere," she commented, "But now I see.."

She pointed over towards where Hinata stood, "He's the one who had stolen your attention."

I blushed. Had I really been so distracted by Hinata being away for camp that I'd let my performance suffer?

She turned and grinned, "But, no distractions next time 'kay?"

I was stunned, "R-right."

We both exited the court and I rushed over to Hinata and practically leapt into his arms. He caught me and hugged me so close into his chest and began jumping again.

"Vanji that was incredible!!" he exclaimed.

My coach had come over too, "You played very well Miss Vanji. But, I'd definitely like to see some more progress out of you. Just because today's match went well doesn't mean the work ends here."

I nodded, "Yes sir."

He grinned and waved us off, "Go get some rest and I'll see you for practice Monday afternoon."

Hinata and I both thanked him and watched as he left.

We both looked back and regained focus on one another.

"Hinata.. you shouldn't have left camp. I don't want to be the reason you miss out or get yourself into trouble," I scolded.

"Don't worry about it," he chuckled, "I got everything covered. We finished drills earlier than anticipated and well .. we had the option of individual practices or break and.."

My eyes widened, "Y-you skipped practice for me?"

"Heh..." he blushed, "I guess so."

I leaned my forehead against his and sighed.

He could've done anything.. but.. he chose me

I smiled and kissed his nose and before he could say anything I heard a voice, "Hey Hinata!"

We both looked over and a guy wearing a red and black hoodie and grey sweat pants, wearing a loose ponytail and blonde, dark brown hair was walking towards us.

Is that-?

"Heya Kenma!!" Hinata called.

K-Kenma Kozume?!! The online streamer??!

I felt myself beginning to panic. I actually followed this guy on all my streaming apps. I loved his videos. He was becoming an online gaming icon and huge in the business world. Was THIS the same Kenma Hinata told me about?

"Oh hey-," Kenma waved, "You must be Vanji."

"Yeah!" Hinata smiled, "Thanks for keeping me updated on her game."

"It's no big deal.. my cousin actually happened to be playing and my family kinda forced me to come watch so I didn't mind."

I couldn't help but stare starstruck. Hinata seemed to notice how quiet I'd gotten.

"Hey Vanji, you okay?" he asked.

"O-oh yeah s-sorry.. I um.. nice to meet you," I stammered.

Kenma looked over me puzzled, "Hmm.. never guessed Hinata would ever date. Let alone someone like you."

I flinched, "U-umm.."

Hinata growled, "Kenma.."

"Oh no offense, just think your kinda cute to be with Hinata is all," Kenma stated bluntly.

I felt my cheeks burning, "T-thanks."

I could feel Hinata tensing his grip around my shoulder.

Kenma chuckled, "Just teasing you Shoyo.. She is pretty. I'm happy for you."

He relaxed, "So how's the streaming career going?"

"Great.. it's exhausting but 500,000 followers tells me I'm on the right track," he sighed.

I thought to myself, "Me included."

"Well.. see you guys later," Kenma shrugged, "Good game Vanji."

"Thanks again Kenma!" Hinata called after him.

I felt like I'd been holding my breath the entire conversation. I sputtered for air and words.

"Vanji, what was that?" Hinata asked.

"You didn't tell me you knew Kenma Kozume!!" I glared.

"Oh.. yeah we knew each other when he played volleyball for Nekoma," he explained, "I told you that already though."

"Wow.." I breathed.

"Vanji.. are you... crushing on Kenma?" Hinata inquired.

I giggled, "No just a fan girl. I follow him online."

"Oh." Hinata laughed.

But, suddenly his expression changed, "Ohhh.."

His eyes got dark with that familiar jealousy. He looked at me and pulled me in close.

"You're mine," he said sternly.

He really couldn't pull off the jealous type persona but this time.. he looked like he truly meant it.
