"Nishinoya-senpai? Are you okay?" You waved your left hand in front of the boy frantically, but it was vain. He was as frozen as someone could be. During that you shifted your gaze towards the taller senpai.

He at least was able to form sentences and still had his ability to move. Yet, he was red and looking everywhere but where were you.

"Okay then. One became a popsicle and one an oven, all for unknown reasons. This isn't normal, this absolutely isn't normal.." Getting worried by the second you took their hands and brought them to the bleachers, where Ukai was standing (Thing that alone was surprising. Since you thought he already left). That action didn't really help Tanaka that now was completely paralyzed.

​​"What happened?" He looked slightly confused by the current state of both the libero and the wing spiker.

"I don't know actually. I just went to them to help with the chores and this happened." You replied smoothly. Your tone of voice was the one you always used to talk normally, meaning it sounded cheerful but if one looked at your face they could easily identify one emotion: worry. You weren't motherly or something like that, so you weren't a 'Sugawara'. Still, seeing a friend or someone you care for hurt , ill or just being negative was able to make you become almost panicked. All thanks to your mother ultra worried and kind personality.

"Did you say or did something strange around them?" That question made you think about your actions, you didn't do anything that could've made them become like this, right?

'So.. I went to them, asked them if I could help and what?' moving a hand in your pocket in thought you continued your reasoning, 'Well they both repeated Senpai before this happened. So maybe that's why?' You chuckled. 'If being called senpai has this effect on them then I should call them like that more often, shouldn't I?' You took a glance at their faces and nodded to yourself. If that was the reaction you would receive every time you just had to do that more often.

Not noticing you sudden change of expression and thinking, from a kind one to a devilish one, you turned towards the coach.

"Well.. something happened, but it's not important." He sighed at that before turning back to stare at the cleaning teenagers.

​​​​​

In the end, you didn't help with anything.

Except nearly killing those two lucky ​​​​​​ unlucky players.

********

"Don't you ever feel alone?" You questioned the black haired manager, "being the only girl in a club full of boys isn't easy, right?" You continued, trying to bond with the girl since she was calm and collected, meaning: the total opposite of some of your female fans.

​​​​​​"It isn't troublesome or extremely hard.." she started, taking her bag. "It's not like I do much, at least not as much compared to what a coach does."

​​​​​"It depends, manager-chan, it depends.~" You grabbed your belongings before finishing your phrase, "I'm sure that if there was another manager, first year, that person would still do much more than me." You wore a small smile, "Because in the end, they would surely be part of this club more than me."

​​​​​​With a wave, you made your way to the door leaving behind a confused manager. 'What did he mean with that?'

**

​​​​​​"Well I've gotta go, see you guys!" You exclaimed, already a foot outside the building.

"W-Wait, M/N-kun!" A voice called out, successfully making you stop in your track and turn.

"Hmm? What is it Hinata-kun?"

​​​​​​

"Sawamura-san* said that he'll treat us to nikuman!" he started to jump up and down,"Will you come too?" He asked with hopeful eyes.

You could go with them, there would be nothing with that. Fact is you actually had to go home since you would have to cook dinner for Kai, since last time he tried to heat some cup noodles he set the microwave on fire.**

"I'm afraid that I can't, Hinata.." The hopeful look in his eyes made place for a disappointed one, while a pout made his way on his face. "I have to help my friend Kai or he'll set his and my house on fir-" You got interrupted by his cries.

"Pleasee!" He pleaded.

"No , really. He can't cook, he has to eat dinn-"

"You can bring him one or two nikumans, so you won't even have to cook!" You were going to reject again, but he decided to play slyly, and did one thing you could nothing against. Puppy. Dog. Eyes.

"I guess I can.." You sighed, looking away, "Using puppy dog eyes isn't fair though." By the time you said that, Hinata was already informing the other players of your decision. You looked at them noticing some of them letting out a relieved sigh.

'What a strange team.'

Thank you for 219 ♥ ! ; U ; I'm not really sure this chapter came out good, but I hope it doesn't disappoint anyone!

FUN FACT: In 5 chapters I was able to not name Yamaguchi or Asahi. That's like a record for me guys. Like, I usually put my favourite boys everywhere but I was able not to int his story!

Still, now I feel like I don't consider them at all? *cries*

*I totally forgot what Hinata calls the other players. I'm ashamed of myself T v T

** I'm guilty of this. I'm so guilty.
