During your break, you wanted to get something at the vending machine. You were walking down the hall while avoiding the big crowds of other students.

As you got closer to it, you noticed a boy standing in front of it.

You walked closer towards him and the vending machine, he was peeking his head up when he noticed somebody approach him.

He turned around with a big smile on his face, feeling yourself getting lost in his beaming brown eyes that locked with yours. You felt your heart skip a beat as you were taking in the sight of him.

"Sorry! I can't decide, you can go ahead!" He said, his eyes falling on the subtle blush that dusted your cheeks.

"T-thanks," You muttered out.

You were standing in front of the vending machine, quickly pressing the numbers to get your strawberry milk before leaning down and getting it out.

He was leaning down as well as he was looking at your choice, "Hmm... strawberry milk?"

"Uh... y-yeah... I like it." Giving him a small smile before turning around and leaving.

You were cursing yourself. You had the chance to talk to a cute boy, and what do you do? You become a stuttering, blushing mess and leave without saying goodbye.

"She's so cute..." He muttered as he was watching your retreating form.

Looking back at the vending machine when he'd finally decided on something, "strawberry milk!"

As you were sitting in your next class, your mind went to that cute guy you've met, pouting as you didn't even get his name.

"I'm so stupid!" You were mumbling to yourself, cursing your shyness.

"Well, with the way I was behaving, he surely thinks I'm an idiot..." mentally facepalming yourself.

You haven't had the luck to meet him again, not until three weeks later.

During your break, you decided to get yourself something from the vending machine.

As you were walking down the hall, you looked at the people that were in the hall - feeling disappointed when none of those faces belonged to that cute guy.

You were standing in front of the vending machine with a finger on your chin, thinking of what to get.

"Hey, Strawberry milk girl!" A familiar voice exclaimed cheerfully.

You turned your head. Your eyes instantly fell on your vending machine crush.

A big smile was on his face when he greeted you, "Hi!"

"H-hey!" You returned the smile.

"Last time, I didn't even get your name!" He was beaming at you, "I'm Yuu Nishinoya!"

"Nice to meet you, I'm (Y/N)" Smiling at him as you introduced yourself.

You were just standing there, looking at him - not understanding how someone can be this cute and hot at the same time.

Once you remembered the reason why you came to the vending machine, you quickly turned around - pressing the buttons before you reached down to grab your strawberry milk.

You turned around and smiled at him, unwrapping the straw and taking a sip.

You moved to the side to let him get his stuff, watching him get the same drink as you.

When you looked at you, he noticed your gaze, which was still on the strawberry milk he got himself.

"You have good taste!" He took a big sip out of this, "This is really good!"

You were just smiling back at him as you didn't know what to say.

"Can I walk you back to your classroom?" He looked at you expectantly.

"S-sure." You averted your gaze, not wanting him to notice your blush.

You've been walking next to each other, every once in a while, you'd glance at each other.

"Are you a first-year?" He curiously asked you.

"Yeah" Your eyes were fixed on him now, "what about you?"

"I'm a second-year student." Pointing at himself with his thumb.

You smiled at his eager gesture. He was the total opposite of you, his bubbly and outgoing personality was a stark contrast to your introverted, shy self.

"Are you in any club?" Seemingly wanting to get to know you better.

"No, but I'm considering joining one..." Biting on your lower lip as you were thinking about the choices of clubs, "What about you?"

"Yeah, I'm in Karasuno's VBC!" He looked at you with a proud expression.

"Oh, that sounds cool!" You exclaimed.

"You should come and watch me practice!" He was brightly smiling at you, "i-if you want to, of course," He rubbed the back of his neck.

Your lips tugged into a smile, happy that he wanted you to see him practice.

"Y-Yeah, I'd like to!" You blurted out with a smile on your face - surprised at your own eagerness.

You made it to your classroom, saying goodbye to Nishinoya as you entered.

You didn't notice that your friends overheard your conversation and were surprised to see you interact with a guy, let alone talked so casually with him - they all knew how shy you could be around boys.

They rushed over to you as soon as you entered the classroom as they wanted to know more about the guy who got you out of your shell.

You told them about your conversation from before, and that he'd asked you to watch him practice.

"I did promise him that I'd watch him, but what am I supposed to do there? Just sit around and watch him?" A frustrated groan left your lips.

"Yeah!" Your friend grabbed your arm, "Come on, you have a crush on him since you first met him!"

"Yeah (Y/N)! You HAVE to go!" Your other friend contributed.

"And after practice, you can tell him that you like him!" Your friend was eagerly nodding her head.

Your face paled at the thought of actually confessing to him, wouldn't you sound crazy if you'd tell him that you like him - you don't know each other that well.

"O-okay... I'll watch him practice, BUT I won't confess - no way I'd do that!" You looked at your friends, "Do you remember that time in middle school, where you two made me confess to my crush?"

"That was a disaster." Your friend stated, with a finger on her chin, as she was thinking back.

Your other friend couldn't hold back her laugh when she remembered it, "You were such a blushing and stuttering mess!"

"Hey! That's not funny, that was traumatizing" You joked, well, it wasn't entirely a joke - you were scared that that would happen again, that's why you won't confess to anyone.

"Believe me. It was traumatizing to watch!" Your friend joked, laughing hysterically.

Your other friend elbowed her, getting her to stop laughing before giving you a heads up, "Come on (Y/N), that was more than a year ago, I'm sure it won't happen again!"

"But what if it will? I don't want to look like an idiot..." You argued.

Your conversation got interrupted by the teacher who just walked in, ready to start the next lesson.

A few days later, at the end of the day, when your class ended, you were surprised that Nishinoya was standing outside of your classroom.

He greeted you excitedly, with a smile on his face, "Hey (Y/N)!"

"Hi! Nishinoya-Senpai!" Greeting him back, you quickly added a senpai to his name as you remembered that he was a year above you.

You missed the surprised look on his face when he heard you call him senpai - it totally flustered him. His lips tugged to a smile before he beamed at you.

"What are you doing here?" You cocked your head as you asked him.

"Today's practice!" He gently wrapped his fingers around your wrist and excitedly dragged you towards the sports hall.

You followed him, not daring to say anything as you didn't trust your voice. You looked back to see your friends, watching the two of you walking off and giving you a thumbs up.

Once you've made it to the sports hall, the two of you stepped in - instantly catching everyone's attention.

Nishinoya introduced the whole team to you, telling them that you'd watch them practice.

You were relieved to see that two girls were also a part of the team as their managers - Kyioko Shimizu and Hitoka Yachi.

During practice, you were always around Kyioko and Yachi, watching the boys practice in awe.

Nishinyoa showed off his rolling thunder, a proud expression on his face when he heard you exclaim a loud "wow".

When practice came to an end, you said goodbye to everyone, Nishinoya asked you if you could wait for him.

You were waiting outside of their clubroom when you noticed your friends coming closer.

"What are you two doing here?" Looking at them with a confused look.

"We just couldn't wait until tomorrow!" One of them said.

"Yeah, did you confess?" The other one wanted to know.

"No, he was practicing the whole time, do you think I confess in front of everyone?" You let out a sigh.

You told them about his cool moves, you were crushing over him, and they knew it.

Once Nishinoya came out of the locker room, he made his way over to the club room.

When he caught up to you and your friends, you quickly introduced them before one of them looked at him, and bluntly said, "(Y/N) wanted to tell you something important!"

Pushing you closer to Nishinoya before taking your other friend's arm and walking off quickly as both of them waved goodbye to the two of you.

You looked at their retreating figures, taking a mental note to kill them tomorrow.

"What did you want to tell me?" He looked at you expectantly.

You knew that your friends were right - the longer you'll keep it in the harder it'll get to confess later.

You wanted to take your chance and tell him, but you were feeling so nervous.

You decided to just go for it, "Umm... I-I" you were stuttering around.

You could feel your cheeks heat up as you were nervously fidgeting with your skirt, trying your best to form complete words.

"Y-you know, I umm.." You groaned loudly.

You turned to your side, facing away from him as you hoped that it would make confessing easier - but it didn't.

"(Y/N)... Are you alright?" He started to worry.

"I'm fine! R-really..." You let out a breath.

'Okay, you can do this, just count to three' You were thinking to yourself before you started to count in your mind.

'1 - 2 - 3'

"Nishinoya-Senpai I really like you!" You blurted out.

Your voice was louder than you expected, facepalming yourself at the thought of multiple people hearing your confession.

You couldn't see the way his face lit up as soon as you confessed to him as you were still looking away.

He took your hand into his, "(Y/N), I like you too!"

You slowly turned your head around to look at him, your eyes locking.

His smile washed away all your worries, and the fear of rejection was gone in an instant.

It took you a while to understand what he said, "W-wait... you like me too?"

"Of course! Your the cutest!" He smiled at you, "Ever since I've first met you!"

You gave him your biggest smile, your eyes dazzling as you looked at him, a relieved sigh left your lips.

"Come on. I'll walk you home!" He was holding your hand, not letting go before you've reached your home.

"T-thank you for walking me home!" Thanking him, fingers still intertwined.

"Of course!" He exclaimed happily, "You know I don't live too far from here. We could walk together from now on!"

"S-Sure!" You were feeling like the luckiest girl on earth, "I should probably go inside.."

You kissed his cheek before quickly heading inside, "Goodbye, Nishinoya-senpai!"

You closed the door behind you. Your face was bright red, surprised at your boldness. 'I... just... kissed him?'

He was standing outside, his hand grazing over the spot where your soft lips were just moments ago.

"She's so cute" He was mumbling under his breath as a soft blush dusted his cheeks.
