Monday Afternoon…

Hinata's POV

Hinata slowly dialled a number into his cellphone and hit 'call'.

He brought the phone to his ears with trembling hands and wondered about how he was going to word his concerns in the least awkward way.

After about three rings, Hinata's embarrassment got the better of him and he went to click the 'end call' button. But before his finger reached the key, a small "hello" was projected from the speaker of the device.

Hinata yelped in surprise, almost dropping his phone in the process.

"Are you alright back there?" The school doctor called from the other side of the curtain.

"Y-yes!" Hinata answered, a little too quickly.

And although Hinata couldn't see the doctor's expression, he swore he heard her chuckle a little which only increased his embarrassment.

"Hello?" the voice on the other end of the line spoke again.

Startled again by the sound, Hinata hurriedly placed his phone next to his ear.

Flustered, Hinata whispered loudly "h-hey Kenma, it's me."

There was a pause before Kenma managed to register Hinata's voice.

"Oh it's you Shouyou," he mumbled in his usual unenthusiastic tone.

"U-um…" Hinata stuttered. "I need a l-little bit of h-help with s-something."

There was another pause before Kenma answered again.

"This is kinda rare… What is it…?"

Hinata gulped. How was he going to tell Kenma without making himself sound weird? Kenma won't laugh at him right? But he still didn't want to make the conversation awkward. Dammit, what was he supposed to do?

"Shouyou…?" Kenma asked.

Snapping Hinata out of his endless train of thoughts, Hinata immediately blurted out a stream of words, forgetting that he was still in the infirmary.

"F-fight! K-Kageyama got… I yelled! U-um scared then disappeared! Crying… Kageyama didn't! Apologize! Need to! W-what should I! H-help me!"

Hinata panicked, tripping all over his words without even managing to speak a whole understandable sentence.

"Calm down Shouyou!" Kenma half shouted.

Hinata immediately shut himself up.

"Now tell me exactly what happened…" Kenma said, returning to his normal tone of voice, with maybe just a slight hint of urgency.

Hinata burst into tears.

The doctor jumped in her seat and got up to see if Hinata was alright. But when she neared the curtain and realised that he was using his cellphone, she decided she wouldn't interrupt Hinata's phone call.

"I yelled at Kageyama! And now I don't know what to do! I haven't talked to him in an entire week and I'm scared! What if he stops talking to me? What if he starts ignoring me? What if he stops giving me his TOSSES?"

"Slow down…"Kenma said. "Take a deep breath and explain to me everything that happened right from the beginning."

Hinata sniffed and wiped away his tears.

He breathed in slowly, trying to calm himself down and began talking.

"Hmm… I think I get it now," Kenma mumbled softly.

"Do you know what I can do?" Hinata blubbered.

"Well… You still have to apologize whether you like it or not…"

Hinata made a sort of choking sound.

"But I just said that I can't!" Hinata whined. "He's just going to yell at me or ignore me!"

"But doesn't he always yell at you?" Kenma pointed out.

"But this time it's different! Kageyama definitely won't listen to me! He looked really surprised when I shouted at him! He probably thinks that I hate him now!"

"How can you be so sure of that?" Kenma questioned.

"Like I sai—"Hinata started.

"How can you say that there is a one hundred percent chance that he'll react like that?"

"Bu—"

"How do you know that's how Kageyama feels?"

This time Hinata didn't say anything.

"Shou—"Kenma began.

"I don't know!" Hinata snapped.

"I don't know and that's the problem! I don't know if he'll just shrug it off like I wish he would! I don't know if he'll yell at me like he always does! I don't know if he'll just ignore me and never talk to me again! I don't know anything and that's why I'm so scared!"

Hinata panted, out of breath.

The school doctor was starting to get very anxious and wondered whether or not she should step in.

Crap. Hinata thought. This was the second time he had yelled at his friend. What was he going to do if Kenma also stopped talking to him? He seriously needed help.

"Kenma?"

No reply.

"Hey, I'm sorr—"

"Of course you don't know what he's thinking!" Kenma shouted, so loud that Hinata had to move his cellphone away from his ear.

It was the first time Hinata had ever heard Kenma shout and he was shocked at the fact that Kenma even had the ability to get worked up over something.

"Of course you don't know." Kenma immediately reverted back to his normal state.

"Did you think you were a mind reader?" Kenma continued.

"No one knows what another person is thinking. We can only guess another's thoughts, but we will never be able to accurately determine exactly what someone else is thinking or what they're currently feeling."

"But!"

"Stop doubting yourself Shouyou. And no more what ifs or buts."

Even though Kenma said what he said, Hinata couldn't stop himself from worrying.

"You guys are friends right?" Kenma asked.

"Y-yeah…" Hinata murmured unsurely. "Well at least I think we are… But I bet it's only me and Kageyama thinks I'm just someone annoying haha…" Hinata laughed nervously.

"You guys are friends, right?" Kenma asked again.

"Yes we are," Hinata answered quickly.

"Good," Kenma breathed.

"Just try apologizing. I'm sure you'll be fine," he reassured Hinata.

"R-really…?" Hinata said doubtfully.

"Yes." Kenma replied with such confidence that Hinata finally felt a bit of his courage flow back into his body.

"Ah, but then again… this time might be a bit different..."

"Eh?" Hinata's newly regained confidence all disappeared down the drain again.

"W-what do you mean…?" Hinata asked hesitantly.

"Hmm… This is a special case I guess." Kenma paused to think for a moment.

"Tell me! You're seriously worrying me over here!" Hinata whimpered.

"Well… you're going to have to figure that out for yourself. It would be pointless for me to tell you after all."

"Wait! Kenma!" Hinata cried in confusion.

"Sorry I have to go now Shouyou. Good luck!" Kenma said before the line went dead.

"Oi! Kenma! Don't just hang up on me!" Hinata whined. The sound of the monotone beeps rang through his ears.

Hinata slumped into the bed. Dammit… Kenma didn't help at all. What did he even mean with that last thing he said? Dammit! Why was everyone being so confusing!

"Dammit!" Hinata yelled, chucking the pillow at the wall before running out the door of the infirmary, leaving the very bewildered school doctor staring after him.

Hinata lay in bed staring at the ceiling.

He had ended up skipping the last bit of school when he had taken off from the infirmary. Hinata had never skipped school before, yet he had ditched with no hesitation.

He had been thinking over what Kenma had said earlier for the past hour already and his head was beginning to hurt. It didn't help that he wasn't used to thinking about things unrelated to volleyball for long periods of time.

"This is a special case I guess."

What was a special case? The fight? His reaction? Kageyama's reaction?

What was that almost hint of excitement in Kenma's voice? What did he mean? Why did he seem so interested?

Sure he could've just been 'helping out a friend', but Kenma never EVER got excited…

Dammit! What was he supposed to do? Kenma said to apologize but Hinata still couldn't get over the fact that Kageyama seemed extremely likely to reject him on the spot.

"Yosh!" Hinata said to himself. "Let's try a simulation!"

Hinata grabbed a sheet of crinkled paper from his desk and a pen and he quickly scribbled Kageyama's face onto it (it was actually pretty good). He then taped it to the head of his bed, cleared his throat and began.

'Hey… Kageyama…' Hinata mumbled nervously. Why was he so nervous when he was only talking to a sheet of paper? 'About the other day…'

Hinata swore he heard 'Kageyama paper version' humph and then turn away before he was even able to finish.

Hinata ripped the paper off the head of his bed and scrunched it up before tossing it into the wastebasket.

He missed.

Hinata yelled into his pillow, the soft material muffling his frustrated cries and soaking up his salty tears which were beginning to ooze out again.

Dammit! Hinata thought.

Dammit! Dammit! Dammit!

Hinata opened his eyes to the harsh morning light, only to find that he was still in the same position as last night.

He slowly got up and stretched. His whole body felt stiff and sore.

Ugh. He was not looking forward to volleyball practice today. Although he really did want to see Kageyama and apologize, he still wasn't ready to face him yet.

Nonetheless he still arrived to volleyball practice in his usual energetic self, trying to divert his senpai's attention from the fresh dark circles under his drooping eyes. His bed hair was even worse than usual today.

Everyone still noticed but decided not to say anything.

Kageyama had already arrived much to Hinata's relief. At least he wasn't sick anymore, Hinata thought.

But his relief was immediately replaced with dread as soon as Kageyama turned in his direction. Hinata whipped his head away when he feared that they were going to make eye contact.

No! I avoided him! Hinata thought to himself. Shouyou you idiot! Stupid!

Hinata snapped out of his trance when Coach Ukai called for everyone to gather round.

"Since we finally have both of the first year duo here today, I'd like you two to practice your freak quick as much as possible today! Everyone else do your best to support them. Remember, Hinata hasn't practiced in a week so go easy on him Kageyama!"

"Osu!"

Kageyama and Hinata immediately went off to train.

As soon as Hinata stepped on court, he felt all his confidence rush back to him. Being on the court soothed him and comforted him. It really was the best feeling.

In no time at all, Hinata was itching to practice the special quick that only the two of them could do.

Hinata ran up towards the net and leaped into the air in a splendid jump.

"Bwah!" Hinata yelped as the ball whammed into his face, knocking him down to the ground.

The whole team gathered round, asking if he was ok.

"Well it has been a week…" Sugawara said. "You guys are just out of practice."

Everyone nodded, believing that that was the truth.

But soon enough, it was clear that Kageyama was not acting normal.

Multiple times the volleyball hit Hinata square in the face and when it didn't, it completely missed Hinata altogether.

"Hey, are you ok Kageyama?" Daichi asked.

Kageyama panted, clouds of hot air escaping his mouth. He nodded.

Sugawara placed his hand on Kageyama's forehead.

"No you're not! You've got a crazy high fever!"

The entire team focused all their attention on Kageyama.

"I-I'm fine," Kageyama croaked, his voice had gone all hoarse. No wonder he seemed really quite today, Hinata thought.

He staggered a few steps forward, unsteady on his feet and bent down to pick up a volleyball that was lying on the ground nearby.

"Oi Kageyama!" Nishinoya yelled.

And then,

Kageyama fainted.

Author's Note: I kinda wrote Kenma completely OOC but oh well
