During practice, you ran over to your brother to question him about tomorrow's practice. He told you that he is going to visit your grandpa in the hospital and you aren't quite sure if everything's okay with him.

After practice, you hear someone run up to you again. You turn around and see Shoyo running up to you with Tobio being dragged along.

"Y/N-chan!! You're going to help us pass our exam right? Can you please tutor us?" Shoyo asks.

You giggle at his question.

"Of course Sho-chan, as long as Tobio-chan asks nicely, too."

You watch as Tobio's face turns a bit angry. As he pouts at you, Shoyo nudges his arm.

"Come on Kageyama just ask nicely so we can pass our exam and go back to Tokyo!"

"Shut up, I know," Tobio snaps at his friend before turning his attention back to you.

Tobio's body tenses up as he gathers his courage to ask you.

"Y/N will you please tutor us?" he asks nervously.

"Of course, guys!" you giggle "you're both so cute."

You smile at them as you wave goodbye and finish cleaning up the gym.

The next day after school, you gather your belongings and get ready to study with Tsukishima. As you turn around you immediately bump into him.

"O-Oh I'm sorry Tsukishima," you say as you look up at him.

You watch as Tsukishima gives you a weird look.

"What are you looking at?"

Tsukishima's face immediately turns back to its neutral state.

"It's nothing," he says calmly.

The moment Tadashi walks up to the pair of you, Tsukishima asks you if you're ready to go.

"Wow Tsukki, you're actually talking to her?"

You giggle to yourself as you see Tsukishima grow frustrated by his friend's questioning.

"You're the one who's forcing me to tutor her," he retaliates.

"I never said that," Tadashi replies a bit surprised "I only told you to apologize to her not-"

"Okay whatever, come on Y/N let's go."

You look at Tsukishima a bit confused as he grabs your arm and pulls you away from Tadashi.

"O-Okay, bye Tadashi," you wave as you continue to be dragged out of the room.

You continue to let Tsukishima keep his hold on your arm, feeling too awkward and shocked to mention it. He brings you to the clubroom where nobody else will be since there's no practice that day.

"Sit," he commands as you enter the room.

"Okay, damn," you mumble as you sit down.

You watch Tsukishima, still shocked that he pulled you the whole way to the clubroom. Subconsciously, you stare at him as he takes out his notebook.

"What are you waiting for?" he asks you.

"Oh, uh, sorry," you speak as you snap out of your thoughts.

For a while, Tsukishima helps you understand the material for your exam. He gives you good tips for remembering different sections and makes sure you recognize the information before moving on.

A bit later, you hear talking outside of the clubroom. You become distracted and stare past Tsukishima at the door.

"Stop getting distracted and pay attention to your work, Y/N."

"Right," you say as you look back at your notes, "so uh what are the parts of the nervous system again?"

Tsukishima groans.

"We've been over this, Y/N, look I'll give you my mnemonic that I use to remember the order, do you think that'll help?"

"Let's give it a shot," you nod.

"Okay. N.A.V.Y.. From lateral to medial, the order is nerves, arteries, veins, and lYmphatics," he says as he emphasizes the 'y' in lymphatics.

"Seriously?" you say puzzled by his not-quite perfect mnemonic.

Tsukishima gives you an intense look.

"Just write it down since you wanted my help so much," he groans to you.

As you write down his mnemonic the clubroom door slams open. You look up to see a bunch of the volleyball team members standing in the doorway in front of you.

"Ooo, what are you two doing?" Tanaka asks.

You look back at Tsukishima's pissed-off face as his teammates walk over to the pair of you.

"I thought you two hated eachother," Tobio remarks.

"Ow," he continues as he gets elbowed in the stomach by Suga.

"W-what are you guys doing here?" you ask.

You watch Tsukishima as he groans at the fact you acknowledged the other boys' existence.

"We're going to hold our own practice today," Daichi tells you.

"It's okay if you two want to stay here and study though," Suga tells the pair of you as he pats Tsukishima's back.

Without looking at his teammates, Tsukishima growls and asks the group of them to leave.

"I can't fucking study if all of you are in here bothering us."

Knowing Tsukishima meant business, the group begins to leave.

"Enjoy your date!" Shoyo calls out to you innocently.

Your face turns red immediately. Luckily, Tsukishima stands up and walks over to Shoyo, so he hasn't seen your face.

"What the hell did you say to us?" Tsukishima speaks angrily.

You watch as Hinata stands his ground, although is clearly shaking.

"T-Tanaka told me to tell you guys that!" he admits nervously.

Tsukishima shifts his gaze to Tanaka. Suddenly, the third-years grab the rest of the students and rush them out of the room. Once they have all left, Tsukishima turns back around to you.

"Don't encourage them, Y/N," he lectures as he sits back down across from you again.

"S-Sorry," you apologize as he groans.

Once you and Tsukishima finished studying, the pair of you go to the gym. Tsukishima begins to practice with the rest of the group as you sit on a bench since there was nothing for you to do in the moment.

As you stay seated you think about how Tsukishima acted when Shoyo said the two of you were on a date.

Being alone with him wasn't actually as bad as I thought it would be. He was nicer to me than I would have expected.

While you think, Tadashi walks by, taking you out of your thoughts.

"Tadashi!" you wave your friend over "Can I talk to you for a second?"

Tadashi walks over and sits down next to you.

"What's wrong, Y/N?"

"I was just wondering if you told Tsukishima to help tutor me?"

Tadashi shakes his head.

"No. I just wanted Tsukki to apologize for the way he acted when he said no to you. I thought he should have heard you out or give you an explanation as to why he didn't want to tutor you."

"O-Oh," you manage to reply.

"But I'm glad it worked out better than I thought," he smiles innocently back at you.

"Yeah thanks, Tadashi," you smile back.

Then why did he change his mind?
