[ RECAP ]

Once we ended, I didn't realize how close we got throughout the song. Our faces were practically inches away from each other.

This is my chance.

[ Y/N'S POV ]

"What's your name?" he blurts out. We were so close to each other's faces and for some dumb reason, I thought he was going to kiss me.

"Y/N," I respond.

"Y/N," he repeats to himself. "It's a nice name."

"Thank you," I smile but deep inside, I felt butterflies in my stomach. "It's getting late, I should head home soon."

"Why? Are you Cinderella or something?" he jokes as we both place the guitars away.

"I wish," I laugh. "I just have a protective older brother that puts a curfew on me as if he was my dad or something."

"That's tough," he laughs. We both leave the shop and then I felt a hand grab my arm. "Is it okay if I walk you home? It's dark and I don't want anything to happen to you on your way there."

"Of course Semi-san," I respond. He smiles but doesn't let go of my arm. "Um, Semi-san?"

"Yes Y/N?" he looks at me deep in the eyes.

"My arm." I point at his hand and he quickly realizes that he was still holding onto my arm.

"Oh," he quickly lets go and I see a red hue form on his cheeks. "Sorry I didn't realize."

"It's okay," I smile as we start walking towards the direction of my house in silence. I wanted to say something but I didn't know what. I needed to start a conversation with him or else he'll think I'm awkward or something.

"So Semi-san," he looks up at me. "What year are you?"

"I'm a third year," he responds. "What about you?"

"Second-year," I tell him. "So you're my senpai then huh?"

"I-I mean I g-guess so," he starts getting flustered. Some people like being called senpais like Tanaka and Noya, but others get all flustered about the word. And Semi happened to be one of them.

"Semi-senpai," I smile at him.

"Don't call me that," he blushes.

"Awww but you act so cute when I do," I tease.

"Y/NNNNN," he blushes harder than before.

"I'm just messing with you Semi," I laugh. We finally arrive at the block where my house was. "Well I better go off alone from here, my brother will freak if he saw me with a boy he doesn't know."

"I understand," he smiles.

"By the way, can I get your number?"

"Of course!!!" he says excitedly. "I mean... sure whatever." I laugh and hand him my phone. Once he was done putting his number on my phone, he hands it back to me.

"Great, I'll text you," I smile. My phone starts ringing and I knew who was calling me. "I have to go! Bye Semi-senpai~"

[ SEMI'S POV ]

I couldn't help but blush again at her calling me senpai. "Don't call me thattttt," I tell her, and she runs off giggling. She's so cute.

[ 30 MINUTES LATER, Y/N'S POV ]

"I don't want you coming to the practice match tomorrow," Daichi tells me.

"What? Why?"

"Because we'll be playing against another team and I don't want them looking at you."

"Daichiiiiiiii," I whine. "You exaggerate too much. They'll be focused on the game, so I doubt they'll notice me"

"No, you're coming straight home after school."

"You're so protective," I roll my eyes.

"It's because I care," he says as he closes the door of my room.

I groan as I fall on my bed. I understand Daichi wants to protect me from other boys but sometimes he takes it a bit too far. I want to be there for the boys in their practice match tomorrow since they looked really scared and we're practicing hard to play against Shiratorizawa.

My thoughts then get interrupted when I soon remember that Semi gave me his number. I take my phone from my counter and text him.

[ SEMI'S POV ]

Every time she calls me senpai it makes me blush hard. I can't help but smile whenever she's on my mind. And I guess it was noticeable.

"Karasuno is going down tomorrow," Reon tells me. "Everyone seems to have beef with someone on their team, what about you Semi?"

"I'm not really sure if I have beef with anyone," I respond. "Tendou, Ushijima, and Shirabu are the ones that really want to beat them though."

"Yeah," he sighs. "Well, we should rest up then." I turn off my lamp and get in my blankets. I couldn't fall asleep since all I would think about was Y/N.

I like her a lot but I'm not sure how she feels about me. She seems to flirt with me but I'm not really sure if it's because she likes me. I haven't felt this much of a connection with anyone before
