The recieved ball echoed through the gymnasium.

Karasuno's Boys Volleyball Team are practicing yet again.

As the ball had been tossed to Kageyama, the raven-haired boy sent a set to Hinata.

Ever since they lost their match against Aoba Josai in an official game, it fueled the boys with determination and hunger for a comeback.

Hinata hit he ball but had spiked it at the wrong way making the ball bounce and roll outside the gym.

"HINATA, BOKE." Kageyama yelled at his partner in annoyance.

And before Hinata could remark, Sugawara stepped in between the two.

"Don't mind, don't mind~ Kageyama-kun, why don't you fetch the ball for us." The mother figure says.

The boy clicked his tongue before glaring intensely at Hinata who flinched by the taller male.

Kageyama headed outside, his eyes wandering around trying to find the stray ball.

That was until he found it.

Although the ball had hit a foot making the person pick it up before he could reach out to it.

"Ah-" Before he could apologize, he cutted off his own sentence unintentionally.

Because as soon as his eyes travelled onto the person's face, he was awestrucked.

She had beautiful H/C hair that matched her E/C-colored eyes.

What added to her features was her rosy cheeks and her cherry lips rising from a thin line to an award-winning smile.

Kageyama thought she was stunning.

And that alone caught him off guard. He cleared his throat before his thoughts snapped back to reality.

"S-sorry.." He faintly apologized looking away, trying hard not to blush.

"Don't fuss it!" She giggled and smiled, handing him back the ball before walking away with a small wave.

Kageyama blushed furiously without holding back knowing that there was no one around to see him.

That girl just earlier...

Who is she? Was she the same year as him or higher?

After a few minutes regaining back his composure, he walked back to the gym with his thoughts still occupied by the girl earlier.

"Ah! Kageyama! Where were you?" Hinata approached his partner wondering why he was taking long outside.

The setter paused momentarily before replying back.

"F-finding the ball dumbass." He furrows his brows.

Kageyama cursed under his breath for carelessly stuttering.

Hinata, Tanaka and Nishinoya looked at him dumbfounded.

"UWAHHH, KAGEYAMA STUTTERED."
"Do it again!"
" >:0 "
"Ah~ The King stuttered~" Tsukishima joined in, teasing the already flustered boy.

"SHUT UP."

. . .

Two months had passed and Kageyama would still see the girl around the halls, not failing to steal glances at her.

What went noticed to the other members was how they would find Kageyama unusually looking around as if looking for someone.

Whether in the halls, outside, in ceremonies or anywhere inside the school building.

Although his team was unable to find out who the girl is though.

He figured that she was from Class 1-5 when he and Hinata entered the classroom to ask Yachi to tutor them.

Those months passed like a flash and there was no moment where she would fail stealing his attention.

Back to the game, he walked towards the spot to serve as it was his turn to do so.

"Kageyama, nice serve!" Ennoshita yelled in advance for luck.

He tossed the ball upwards, jumping.

"Shimizu-chii!"

And before he could hit the ball, time went slow motion when he heard the familiar voice that had always blissed his ears.

Distracted, he missed the ball falling to his butt making him grunt in pain.

Fortunately, only five of the members paid attention to Kageyama and went to his aid.

Those who were Asuhi, Hinata, Sugawara, Daichi and Nishinoya.

Of course to which the boy declined, standing up as his gaze focused on the H/C-haired girl.

Hinata and Nishinoya in particular noticed how the boy's eyes glinted in softness and adoration.

Their eyes left his to follow the boy's line in sight.

And suprisingly, it laid on the girl who had just entered the gym.

"OHHHH!! A GIRL!" Tanaka first reacted.

"Ah, pardon for the intrusion." She apologized, bowing while the boys went nearer.

"Everyone, this is Y/N L/N. She is my younger cousin from Class 1-5." Kiyoko said, smiling.

Y/N L/N. Kageyama repeated in his mind thinking how fortunate he was to grab the girl's name.

"KIYOKO HAS A COUSIN IN THE SCHOOL?!" Nishinoya exclaimed.

"Uwah~!!! She's cute!"

Somehow, Tanaka's remark caused Kageyama's blood to boil, silently sending glares to the boy.

"Ah, you were the one who I gave the ball back a few months ago. Kageyama Tobio right?" Y/N smiled.

Kageyama's heart thumped, fighting back a blush.

"Y-yes.."

Mentally, he was silently celebrating how you were able to know his name.

Especially when two months passed after that time.

Sure he was a tad bit popular due to his title but yet it still seemed to give the boy joy.

. . .

Unfortunately, Y/N only took a glimpse inside the gym because her cousin, Kiyoko, forgot her lunch.

But either way, seeing her for a few minutes had made Kageyama feel better than usual.

His recieves, serves and sets were much precise than usual too.

His mood were noticed by the team and they were surprised. Most specially Nishinoya and Hinata.

The two glanced at the boy before turning to look at each other, nodding.

They walked towards Kageyama after practice.

"Kageyama!" Nishinoya exclaimed.

The said boy turned around, rising a brow in question.

"So um..."

Honestly, Hinata didn't really know where to start.

But Nishinoya being Nishinoya and as a straightforward senpai, went directly to the point.

"Do you like her?"

Kageyama who was chugging down his water, choked before coughing making Hinata stiffle a laugh.

"Wh-who?"

"You know, Kiyoko's cousin-!" Hinata went along.

"STUPID SHUT UP DON'T SAY IT OUT LOUD."

"Ah, sorry~"

"So you do like her?" Nishinoya smirked teasingly.

"Doesn't matter since I-I still wouldn't be able to do anything." Kageyama shrugged, embarassed by the conversation at hand.

"Why not?"

"Because she's in a whole different league."

"Talk about yourself! You have a fanclub swooning over you."

Kageyama rolled his eyes, crossing his arms.

"Let's search in WikiHow!" Nishinoya suggested bumping a fist on his palm.

"Eh?"

" ' How to get your Crush to like you back ' !"

Hinata awed. "Nishinoya-senpai is so smart!"

He complimented the Libero making him chuckle smugly.

Quickly did the two begin to chatter about their newest ship, Y/N and Kageyama.

Kageyama rolled his eyes trying his best to prevent a blush to creep on his cheeks.
