"Everyone, us coaches would like to give you gifts for working so hard these past couple weeks" Coach Ukai says extending his arms to the grills and tables with neatly placed raw meat on it.

"BARBECUE" The boys yell in unison as they rush for the food.

"I.... wasn't finished..." Coach Ukai strains.

"FOOD!" You yell running after the hungry volleyball players. You push your way threw the tall boys with your chopsticks, ready to eat.

"What are you doing?" Tsukishima says as you elbow him back.

"Getting food! Get out of the way" You take the hot meat and place it all on your plate. "First come first serve"

"But you weren't here first..."

"Whatever" You say taking a bite of the juicy meat. "So good!"

"Weirdo" Tsukishima half smiles.

"Are you going to eat that?" You say taking a piece of meat from the tall first year's plate and turning away to run.

"Oi!" Tsukishima reaches over your shoulder to grab his meat back. You laugh trying to pull away as he struggles to hold the cooked steak in his chopsticks. As Tsukishima picks it up, you open your mouth and eat it. His eyes narrow as he leans over near your face, trying to gran another piece of meat from your plate. You smile being this close to him. It's... comforting. You don't know how to explain it. You then hear the sound of a camera shutter as both you and the beanstalk look up.

"Cute!" One of the team managers say with a phone in her hand.

"Are you guys together or something?"

"I thought she was dating Misawa..."

You wave your hands in defense with a forced laugh, "No way! We're just friends"

You turn your head to Tsukishima, "Right?"

Tsukishima stands behind you with a straight face. For a moment you two exchange a glance. Standing up straight he says, "Yeah..."

"See!" You say proudly.

"Yeah, besides," Misawa says pushing himself in front of Tsukishima, putting his arm around you. Your face flushes red. "We're together after all"

Tsukishima steps back as Misawa turns his head to him with a gloating smirk. Tsukishima clenches his jaw and walks away. You turn around with a worried expression. Misawa brings your attention back to him.

"Want me to feed you?" He whispers in your ear, making you turn into a tomato. Misawa laughs looking at how flustered you are.

"I think... I'm going to go eat with Kiyoko..."

"Thats fine, I'll see you later though, right?"

You nod smiling. You aren't trying to avoid him, right? You want to eat with your sister... thats all. Misawa smiles and kisses your cheek. He waves a goodbye as he meets up with the Nekoma team.

-

After all the meat is quickly eaten by everyone, Coach Ukai calls everyone together again for another announcement.

"Another gift for all of you guys is tickets to an amusement park for tonight. Just as a final break before starting the tournament."

"WOAH! An amusement park?!" You say with stars in your eyes. "I've always wanted to go to one"

"Shortie, you've never been to an amusement park before?" Tsukishima snickers.

"Well... yeah... I wanted to go before, but Kiyoko has always been busy and I didn't want to go alone.." You rub your neck with a forced laugh.

"Oh.."

"Well now you can go!" Coach Ukai exclaims. "Everyone, go pack your things and change into your casual clothes and meet on your designated bus"

"Yay!" you jump with excitement.

"Weirdo," Tsukshima half smiles.

"Pfft whatever... I have to go get my stuff!" You skip away.

"So weird," Tsukishima laughs to himself.

-

As you enter the bus with Yamaguchi ahead of you, you see Tsukishima sitting by himself with an empty seat next to him. Yamaguchi notices an opportunity to put his plan into action. "Hey, (Name), why don't you go sit with Tsukki?"

"What?" You and the beanstalk both say in unison.

"I want to talk to your sister about something so, I'll sit with her." He smiles.

"Oh.. uh.. okay?"

As Yamaguchi passes Tsukishima, the beanstalk whispers, "What are you doing?!"

"Helping you figure out your feelings," he whispers back before sitting next to Shimizu. Tsukishima gives Yamaguchi a look saying 'Screw you'. Yamaguchi gives him a thumbs up.

"Okay Beanstalk!" you say sitting down next to him. You take out a small booklet, "I made a itinerary of things to do!"

"You made that in the short time we had to get ready and leave?..."

"Pfft no... this is something I've been writing for years. Its everything I want to do at an amusement park." You smile. "Plus, Misawa said he'd do them with me so yay!"

Tsukishima looks at you with a hint of sadness in his eyes. He looks away, and takes out his headphones and puts them on. He looks back at you, who can't sit still and looks out the window as the bus begins shaking from the start of the engine. You put the itinerary back in your bag and go on your phone, texting Misawa.

After a half hour of driving, your eyes begin to feel heavy as your excitement dials down. You begin to bob your head to the side as your eyes flutter closed. Your head rests on the shoulder of the guy next to you. Tsukishima jumps from the from the sudden feeling. His face flushes a bright pink before he turns his attention back to the passing trees and cars, trying to ignore his face heating up. His face grows warmer as you begin to softly snore. While it's a nuisance for you to be drooling on him, a small part of him feels happy.

-

Your eyes slowly open seeing every one preparing to exit the bus. You turn your head to see the back of Tsukishima's head. You sit up and wipe the small amount of drool on the side of your mouth. You dust off the pink-faced beanstalk's shoulder, "Sorry about that."

"I-It's fine..." He mumbles.

"Lets go!" You say grabbing your bag as Tsukishima sits up, grabbing his own bag.

"WOAH" Your eyes light up. "THIS PLACE IS HUGE!"

"calm down shortie, we haven't even gone inside yet." Tsukishima says.

"Misawa!" You say running to your boyfriend, standing by his brother. Tsukishima stands from a distance. "Are you ready do go run around the amusement park?"

"About that..." Your grin fades as Misawa looks saddened. "My stupid brother is making me hang out with him for majority of the time we're going to be here..."

"O-Oh" Your eyes fall to the ground.

"B-But we can watch the fireworks together, I know thats what you wanted to do the most, okay?" Misawa lifts your chin up. You nod, clearing your misty eyes.

"Sorry..."

"It's fine Misawa!" You smile, "we can go on a proper date later!"

"Yeah," He returns the smile, waving.

You walk back to the Karasuno group, fidgeting with the small booklet.

Tsukishima notices your mood change, "Whats wrong?"

"Oh... uh... I guess I'm going to complete my itinerary alone...." You smile sadly. "Misawa has to stay behind because of Kuroo..."

"Oh..." Tsukishima thinks to himself for a moment. "How about.... I help you instead?"

Your eyes light up, "Really?"

"Sure, why not. You seemed really excited to do this," Tsukishima rubs the back of his neck.

"Yay" Your excitement comes rushing back. "Take a look at the itinerary and we can begin!"

Tsukishima raises his eyebrow reading your handwriting. "I can barely read this, you're handwriting is so bad."

"Shut up" You say, taking back your itinerary. "First is... the roller coaster!"

You begin to run into a crowd of people. Tsukishima grabs your shirt, pulling you back. "Don't be an idiot. If you run straight into a crowd you'll get lost."

"Then how do you suggest we stick together?" You put your hands on your hips.

"Hold on to the back of my shirt."

"Why your shirt though. What about my shirt!" You lean forward.

"We could but you're short."

You cross your arms and pout, "Fine..."

You grab a hold of the back of Tsukishima's shirt as he walks towards the first rollercoaster in the distance. 'This is so cliche for couples' You think to yourself. 'But we aren't a couple...'

"Oi, Shortie snap out of whatever trance you're in. Let's go"

You clear any thoughts you were thinking before and skip over to the line.

To Be Continued.....

To be honest I had a much longer chapter planned out but it was over 2000 words so I decided to split it up sksksksk. Expect the second part published soon, I guess.

Also! Thank you so much for 1k votes it makes me really happy knowing people like my poor writing that I need to improve
