"Aya-chan, did you pack everything? Do you have your clothes? Your sweater? Your personal necessities? And did you bring the stun gun I gave you?" mom asked me for the tenth time.

"Why do I have to bring a stun gun, mom? I'll be fine" I assured her. Sometimes, mom tends to be a little overprotective now that were living in Miyagi. Its probably because of that time that she is now constantly worried about my safety. Or maybe its because this is the first time I will be sleeping away from home.

"Aya-chan! Did you forget that you're staying with a couple of boys? Something might happen to you!" she said through comical tears "Waah~! Aya-chan, you're still young and innocent. I dont want my little girl to lose her purity"

Huh? What did she mean by that?

"For the last time, mom, I'm not a little girl anymore. I'm turning sixteen already" I told her. Well, honestly, my birthday's still a couple of months away since Im December 12. Its kinda weird thinking that Im older than Kageyama-kun by 10 days.

"Remember, if something happens to you, give those boys a good shot of the stun gun in the ass, okay?" mom gave me a thumbs up with a sadistic smile and a dark aura behind her "If something happens to you, Keishin will have a talk with me"

I quickly scooted away from her and nodded shakily "O-Okay! Bye mom!"

"Have a lovely time in your training camp! Give me a call every once in a while, okay? Tell Daichi and the team good luck for me!"

"Okay!"

I put on my shoes and went outside and closed the gate. I sighed deeply and smiled. The air feels nice and the weather looks good. Looks like it won't rain, which is good thing. I heard footsteps and I turned to look who it is and I saw dark green hair with pieces of flyaway hair sticking up walking.

"Oh, Tadashi-kun! Good morning!!" I said, waving my hands to greet him. I walked towards him and he made a small smile.

"Good morning, Ayame" he said, nodding his head. He's so kind and respectful, even though he hangs out with Tsukishima-kun. I always noticed that, but he would also snicker at others misfortune (like when they are making fun of Shoyo-kun's errors and Yuu-senpai's Rolling Thunder). I looked up at him and stared at his freckles. Uwaa~his freckles really look nice to him

I shook my head and I, for some reason, suddenly felt embarrassed "Ah...etto...Can I walk with you to school?" I asked.

"Huh? Sure" We walked together and I could feel my heart pounding in my chest. Why? Why is my heart beating unusually fast? This is the first time I ever walked with a boy alone. Sure, Tsukishima-kun and Tadashi-kun were usually my companions when going home since were about in the same neighborhood. Sometimes, even Daichi-nii and the team are my companions.

Did he hear it?

Wait, that's impossible.right?

"T-todays the training camp, right?" I asked, starting a conversation. Ugh...I'm not good starting with a conversation in an awkward atmosphere. However, its oddly comforting. I wonder why...

"Yeah. It kinda sounds exciting. Four days later and well be facing our former rivals, Nekoma High. The training will be rough, I think" he said, sounding a bit gloomy.

"But I'm sure you guys can do it! Imagine, after a few years of no connection to Nekoma, who would've thought that they're willing to have a practice match against us! Ooh~! I cant wait!" I said, jumping up and down.

He chuckled "Ayame, you're really excited about the training camp, huh?"

My face reddened as I heard him chuckle and I nodded "Of course! Its my first time, after all!"

"Uwaaah~! We will be staying here?! So cool!!" Hinata quickly exclaimed before exploring the whole house in excitement "WHOA~! Look at this! This is so cool!!"

"Geez, that idiot, getting all excited and stuff" Kageyama said, though his eyes have a spark of excitement in it. Ayame was also excited as the duo, since its her first time to sleep away from home.

"Wow, this place is amazing" she smiled.

"This is your first time to sleep with us, right, Ayame?" Tsukishima told her, eyeing her with a smirk. The innocent violet eyed girl happily nodded, giving two certain second years some weird ideas.

"Damn you, Tsukishima, you brat!! Don't lay a finger on our precious kohai or else you'll regret it!!" Nishinoya warned him, fuming with anger.

"Ayame-chan, where are you staying?" Tanaka asked her "It will be better if you stayed with us! Staying with likes of Tsukishima is not good for you!!"

"Actually, Ayame staying with you two is a bad idea" Tsukishima thought. Ayame looked back and forth from the first years to the third years, five times and heave out a sigh.

"I think I'll be staying with the first years since I'm a first year too" she said. Tsukishima smirked at her answer and Yamaguchi's face turned red from thinking that Ayame's staying with them while the second year duo grabbed the blondes collar and vigorously shook him.

"TSUKISHIMA, YOU BRAAAAT!!!!" Tanaka yelled at him "YOU PERVERTED BRAT!!"

"TSUUUKIISHIIIMAAA!!!" Nishinoya yelled "DON'T YOU DARE DO SOMETHING PERVERTED TO AYAME-CHAN!! I'LL KILL YOU PERSONALLY IF YOU DO!!"

"I haven't done anything yet. And Im not a pervert" Tsukishima thought.

"Ayame's staying with us...she'll be sleeping in the same room with us...crap...my face is so red" Yamaguchi thought, covering his red face.

"Anyway, Shimizu-san will be staying with us, right?" Ayame said. Just by mentioning the manager's name made the two stop and sigh dreamily.

"Yup, Kiyoko-san will be staying with us!" Nishinoya said, swooning "Ah~, it feels like our training camp is in heaven, right, Ryu?"

"Right, Noya-san! We have two beautiful angels by our side! Were definitely in heaven!!" Tanaka nodded, sighing dreamily.

"With Ayame-chan and Kiyoko-san within 500 meter radius, this training camp will be a huge success!!"

Sugawara sighed and announced the most devastating news for the duo "Actually, Shimizu's house is quite near here so she will not be staying here with us"

After that, he merrily walked away, leaving Nishinoya and Tanaka landing face first on the floor upon hearing the news. The first years stared at them in disbelief.

"No...Noya-san, please you have to stay strong!" Tanaka told the lifeless libero, shaking his collar.

"Ryu...I can't take it anymore..." Nishinoya gasped, crawling their way to the kitchen. Their teacher, Takeda-sensei, opened the door and was surprised to find two second years sprawled on the floor, their faces hollow and lifeless.

"Wha-what happened?" he asked, surprised.

"Take-chan, please we can't take it anymore" Tanaka wheezed, raising his hand. The third year manager suddenly appeared, wearing an apron. Instantly, all life returned to the duo and they started chanting in happiness. The first years looked at their senpais with a slack expression on their faces with one word in mind.

Idiots...
