Okay, this training camp is going in an unexpected direction!

I thought the character Sana would be the best to tell this part of the story and probably the other chapters will also be from her point of view.

There's still a lot to happen and I'm glad everyone is finally in the same place.

Enjoy!

Extra Chapter 4

Training Camp – Part Two

Sana P.O.V.

- I want to sleep, I'm tired and thirsty and I think I'll end up punching Aomine in the face if I see him now - I said as I lay down on the pile of pillows that must have been the sleeping bags we would use for those days away from our homes.

Aimi smiled despite my comment about Aomine. I shouldn't have threatened him, but what could I do? I didn't like him.

I don't know what I was thinking when I agreed to spend the most important holiday week of the year at a camp in the middle of nature, well, semi nature since we would have real bathrooms nearby and the tents were comfortable, but Kise was so excited to spend time with his friends from elementary school that I couldn't say no.

My phone was ringing off the hook, but every time I checked it was just my little brother texting me. I wasn't immersed enough in nature for him to stop bothering me.

- No, Sota, you can't take my CDs - I murmured while typing.

I couldn't even scold him properly. I was really tired.

As Aimi and I lived in Tokyo and were apparently the only ones "idle" enough, we ended up preparing the food for the weekend. I wanted to ask Momoi to help us, but Aimi told me that she didn't know how to cook and she would only stay with us for one night since she and the other guy, Kuroko, had family plans.

I was better at eating than cooking, I had warned everyone, but my brother still liked my food anyway, so I guess we wouldn't have any problems.

Aimi was setting up the small communal table that would be inside the tent. We would eat meals around the fire outside since that was the purpose of this meeting, but six girls together needed to have space.

Suddenly she stopped what she was doing and looked at her cell phone and smiled.

- Don't tell me Imayoshi is texting you again.

- What? - Aimi almost dropped her cell phone - No, of course not!

- You don't need to be nervous if you're not lying - I replied - if you make Aomine cry I'm in.

- This was mean! - Aimi threw a pillow on my face, it was actually a dog plush.

- Sorry - I sat down. My phone rang again, but this time it wasn't my brother, but messages at the group chat I had created for the girls. Apparently they were all arriving at the same time and I was nervous.

- What do you think they are like? - Aimi asked. We both suffered from social anxiety, it wasn't a good thing.

- Suki seems cool, I like the food photos she sends... I'm not sure about Botan.

- She only sends messages about lucky items of the day, which is weird, and she's older.

- Yeah - I nodded – but about Hayami...

Aimi and I were silent. We both didn't have an opinion on Hayami yet. She barely texted us.

- If they hate us, at least I have you and Momoi - Aimi sighed. The weather was nice so we didn't need to wear coats and Aimi had a big bruise on her left arm from cheerleading training. She was trying her best because she started later than her groupmates, which I admired.

Everyone seemed to be part of very interesting clubs, but I was happy in the photography club that I had joined this year. The Kpop club was good, but I felt like I needed to make different friends too.

Furthermore, at the photography club we could take models and Kise always offered to help me.

- Sanacchi, Aimicchi, are you there?

We heard Kise's voice before he entered the tent. He liked us to wear matching clothes, so I had chosen a red checkered blouse that would match the button-down shirt he wore over a gray one.

Aimi thought the others had arrived, so she was nervous for a moment, but soon calmed down again. She was one of the few girls who didn't get nervous in Kise's presence, which I found strange at first, but later I understood. Maybe girls who were too pretty were used to these types of guys.

But then she told me she wasn't a fan of blondes.

- Please, Ryōta, tell me you won't make comments about me to Midorima.

- I promise! - Kise raised his hand, looking serious, but then he opened a wide smile and kissed me on the lips.

I couldn't describe Kise's kisses, because each one was different and special, more than that, he always played with my hair, or bit my ear and tickled me just to tease me. How could I think of anything other than him?

Aimi always said that we were too comfortable showing affection in front of others, but I hadn't realized it until that moment, because when Kise released me Aimi was already separating the sleeping bags and Aomine popped his head into the tent.

- They're coming - Aomine said, he quickly looked at me and Kise, then turned to Aimi, blushed and ran away.

Aimi didn't take long to follow him, I think she wanted to welcome the other girls.

- It's the first time that Aominecchi will sleep so close to a girl he likes - Kise said after Aimi left - of course I don't have that problem because I can see you sleeping every day.

- Red flag! - I flicked him in the middle of his forehead - Let's not talk about this in public!

- I know, I know - Kise replied, he squeezed my waist - there is also someone who is coming today that I want you to meet, Taiga Kagami, Kagamicchi.

- The guy from Seirin? I know, you talk about him a lot.

- Oh and Midorima texted me, it looks like Takao is coming too, it was a demand from Botan's brother.

- Other guy? - I replied, frustrated, as I didn't know if the food would be enough - We need more girls.

Midorima was the first to arrive and he ended up recognizing me, which I couldn't tell if it was a good or bad thing. The girl, Botan seemed very secure next to him, holding his hand. They seemed like a good match even at first impression. As for the other guy, Takao, he seemed friendly and was soon willing to help tidy up the boys' tent which, of course, Aomine hadn't finished yet.

- You must be Sana - Botan said after Aimi showed her place in the tent - I brought the lucky items for the weekend, for you too Aimi.

She handed Aimi a sunflower keychain and a cactus, then a bag of dried mushrooms and a children's watch with plastic straps for me.

- Thank you... I think.

She sat across from us, looking at the tent not with curiosity, but as if analyzing whether we had done everything right or not. Botan wore a long, low braid that went down her left shoulder and her bangs appeared to be too long as she pinned them to the side of her head.

Even though she was only a year older than Aimi and I, she had a much more responsible energy than anyone else there.

- So you're studying to be a doctor? Cool.

- Ah, I'm still far from that - Botan adjusted her glasses on her face - but I attend a science academy after school.

Aimi seemed fascinated by what was coming out of Botan's mouth. I guess she liked smart people after all. That's why I didn't understand what she was doing with Aomine.

The second car that arrived was much noisier and for a moment I didn't understand how two tall people managed to occupy the same space.

One of the girls was tall, but maybe tall was not enough to describe her. The purple guy munching on a bag of chips was even taller and the two looked like a superhero couple, but the girl looked cute with her smiling appearance. She certainly had foreign features.

The second couple… I think they were a couple, were much quieter. Everyone knew Akashi, as we had already seen him giving an interview on TV after the matches. But the girl... She was so delicate that she looked like she came out of a fairy tale.

The girls soon entered our tent and we formed a circle of unknown people facing each other for the first time while the boys were busy reminiscing about the old days outside.

- Hello, I'm Suki Okada! - The tall girl was the first to speak. Next to her I felt like a dwarf from the Lord of the Rings. - Nice to meet you!

We all remained silent, waiting for the other girl to speak, until Suki lightly pushed her with her shoulder. They were certainly friends.

- Hayami Inoue - she bowed too formally to us as if she were a princess from another time - nice to meet you.

Hayami's clothes were from famous brands, as I recognized the minimalist logos on the skirt and sweater she insisted on wearing despite the pleasant weather. Her hair looked like black silk, shiny and long.

Suki and Hayami looked very different from each other, but I could tell they were already close. I could get along with Suki and Botan, but Hayami seemed too perfect.

- Here you go, Murasakibara's girl - Botan broke the silence by handing over Suki's lucky item, a velvet hair clip and a tennis ball keychain - but I think we have a problem now.

Botan sighed. Aimi and I got tense, as we thought it must be something serious.

- We have two Scorpio people here and I only brought one lucky item for each day, so you will have to take turns with Takao.

She handed a round pocket mirror to Hayami so casually that it surprised me, as I couldn't approach her.

- Takao? - I heard Hayami say, even her voice sounded perfect and I couldn't deny that it slightly irritated me a little.

We left the tent, we had already given the boys too much time to talk to themselves and another car was arriving. Botan was still talking to Hayami about Takao while Aimi asked Suki something.

- He's basically my little brother - Botan continued as she pulled one of the guys out of the group and closer to us - you better get along or the lucky item won't work.

I had heard about Takao before and how playful he was with Midorima. I didn't think someone like him would be a suitable person to talk to Miss Perfect right there, but for some reason, Hayami's pale face turned red when Takao greeted her with a wide smirk.

I blinked in disbelief.

I mean... Wasn't she Akashi's girlfriend? The guy who never lost?

I really wanted to see how far this would go, but Kise suddenly pulled me over to greet the other people who had arrived. I already knew Kuroko and Momoi from Teikō and knew that all the boys would surround Kuroko like bees on a flower the moment he arrived.

But it wasn't to see him that Kise took me.

- Sanacchi, I want you to meet Kagamicchi!

The guy was tall and very muscular for a high school student. His gaze reminded me of a tiger, and I didn't like what I felt when I shook his hand. It was as if an electric current ran through my entire body at once.

My face felt hot, too hot to go unnoticed. And I couldn't say a word while looking at his face.

- Sanacchi? - He asked. Even his voice was deep and gave me goosebumps.

- Sana, just Sana - I replied, hastily withdrawing my hand as if he might devour it.

I don't know if Kise noticed, people thought he didn't notice anything, but he was very observant. So I tried to stare at the ground as I walked away from Kagami and I clung to Aimi's arm, who was chatting excitedly with Momoi.

My brother was calling me again.

What a Golden Week.
