{6: Hinata?}

"H-Hinata?" Kageyama asks with a shaking voice. Standing besides Daichi, merely watching the rest of the team, is a short boy.

The boy has spikey hair.

The boy watches them play with a look of admiration.

The boy looks like he wants to play with them.

Correction: the boy looks like he WOULD LOVE to play with them.

Kageyama, shocked to see the familiar looking boy before him tosses the ball he was holding without aiming properly, and it ends up hitting Asahi in the face. Seeing this occur, the whole team laughs except Kageyama. The team, after laughing loudly for a few minutes, finally realizes who Kageyama is staring at.

"That's Takeshi-kun from my class," Suga explains to a bewildered Kageyama, "He's thinking about joining the team."

"No that's Hinata," Kageyama responds, earning himself a small sigh from Suga.

"I suppose Takeshi-kun does look a bit like Hinata..." Suga says, with a nervous smile. What if Kageyama were to get into one of his intense moods again? He could scare Takeshi away... "He LOOKS like him, and that's all, Kageyama. I know you miss him but..." Suga soon gets cut off by Kageyama.

"What position does he play?" Kageyama asks, still staring at Takeshi. Takeshi, who is busy talking to Daichi does not notice Kageyama's stare.

Suga takes a while to respond as he wonders if he should say anything at all. "He's a middle blocker."

"He's Hinata. Hinata... Oi, get over here dumbass!" Kageyama hollers, surprising Takeshi, Daichi and Suga. "Come over here and spike already!"

"Kageyama he's not..." Suga begins to say, just as he is once again cut off by Kageyama.

"He's Hinata!" Kageyama hollers repeatedly, as he seems to be attempting to convince both Suga and himself. "He's Hinata, he's Hinata, he's..."

The short boy CAN hit his normal tosses.

The short boy CAN'T hit his fast tosses.

The short boy CAN jump pretty high.

The short boy CAN'T jump as high as Hinata.

The short boy LOOKS like Hinata.

The short boy doesn't ACT like Hinata.

The short boy doesn't SOUND like Hinata.

The short boy...

They short boy isn't Hinata.

Damn Takeshi is Takeshi, not Hinata.

HINATA IS DEAD.

WHY CAN'T KAGEYAMA ACCEPT THAT FACT?

HINATA IS DEAD.

KAGEYAMA CAN'T EXPLAIN HOW MUCH IT HURTS TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT FACT. 

/I'm soooo sorry for this late update! I've had really bad writer's block, have been busy, and have been tired. Again, I'm really sorry!/
