The alarm clock rung early.

Everything hurt. Everything was bad but I'd make it the best day possible for the team. Coach Ukai planned out a small trip for all of us before the spring tournament which was just in the matter of days coming.

Everyday since the trip to Tokyo has just been hell and its only been 2 days since. Which makes today Monday.

Mom has gone back to who she was before. She screams and yells at me. Claiming this is all my fault that I have this disease, cancer really. At least she isn't screaming at Natsu. That's all that matters. For she is going to live a long time beyond me. Its all I could wish for.

All I want is for Natsu to be happy and live a happy life even without me.

Nope.. can't cry right now. Gotta get up and ready. Come on.. Just get up.

As soon as my feet reach the floor all I can feel is a pain from the bruises and cuts on my feet my Mother has caused. I wince at the memories.

She tried to kill me when we got home. Mother had broken a glass and was chasing me. I was running.. I couldn't see.. My eyes were stinging from the tears. I stepped on the broken glass she left on the floor or well ran on it.. But I just kept on running and running so far that I wasn't even in the house. Bloody footprints followed me after each step I took that day.

An old lady that lives in the neighborhood found me and took me into her home and fixed my feet up. Or well that's what she told me. I think I passed out or something.

Can't think about that right now.

I have to go to school. I want to run but taking my bike will be the best option I guess.

The sun wasnt even rising when I left the house. But hear I am. At the school. At 5 in the morning exactly.

I don't want to be home when Mom wakes up and she wakes up at six for her job.

If I tell anyone she's going to loose her job.. All those students she teaches will hate her for what she has done and will be disgusted that she taught them.. Can I do that to her? I don't know..

But you should! You really can't live like this anymore you know. She's a demon that deserves to be put in Jail. I know that but- NO. You can't try to defend her. She barely raised you after your father died! DON'T BRING DAD UP! Fine fine.. You should at least try to nap. No one is going to be here for an hour and a half.

Al-Alright.. The world around me became darker, well darker then it was now as I nodded off-

"HINATA! DUMBASS GET UP!" Someone yelled at me I guess.

I shot up. "YES!" Immediately came out of my mouth. "Oh, Hi Kageyama." I give him a simple smile.

"Why were you sleeping.. and crying.. and um saying 'no, please stop,' You er Okay" Kageyama asked. He crosses his arms with a pout on his face. His eyes looked stern but I knew he doesn't mean it. After all I know what it looks like for someone's eyes to be actually, truly threatening.

"-What?" I quickly wipe away the tears in my eyes and on my cheeks away with my sleeve. "I had a nightmare.. I also got here at five"

"Why so early? We are supposed to be here at 6:30 and it's only 6:15" Kageyama said in a slow manner. Dragging out his words like he was learning how to form them.

"Maybe one day you will understand.." I whisper quietly.

"Understand what? If you are hiding something speak up." Kageyama unfolded his arms and folded them again.

Maybe I should just tell him.. I already told Daichi and ndfblndlb. I don't want to feel so alone anymore. But you aren't alone, you never have been. But I am! I am so alone! I fear that everyone is going to hate me or already does! Think I'm pathetic and not worthy to be a regular! Shh don't think that. You aren't like that, they won't think that, you know this already. Daichi didn't think you were pathetic after you told him. So why would anyone else? You know what. Fine. Think all of these pathetic thoughts that I planted in your head. You are worthless, greedy, and only seeking attention from your fellow teammates. OKAY! I was trying to be nice but you are so helpless! So.. so disgusting with the way you think and act! I mean for the love of god you stayed friends with a freak!

"SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!" I screamed at the voice in my head. My ears rung with the silence.

Kageyama looked taken back. Like he had done something wrong. "No, no I'm sorry! I didn't meant to say that out loud to you and it wasn't directed at you at all!" I stood up trying to get my point across with unnecessary hand movements.

"Its.. alright? But just tell me what's going on. There has to be a reason why you said it!" Kageyama was actually expressing care..

I sit back down and pat the spot next to me. He reluctantly sits. "My dad died when I was young from a car accident.. My mother blamed my sister and I for his death. She just.. snapped. She wasn't our mother anymore." I dont want to continue..

"What... what happened when she snapped?" It was obvious he was choosing his words carefully. So I guess Kageyama does have a soft side.

"She.. She hit us and screamed at us. Everything was just turned on its head after my Dad died. She spent more time working then with us.. My mom works as a teacher. She purposely didn't feed us finding that we were unnecessary. Everything.. just got worse the more she grieved over Dad. She didn't stop grieving until a month ago.. when she disappeared. But she came back last week. And.." I choke on my words. It was hard to get them out.

"Every thing has beens I bad, Kageyama. I thought she was better, she said she got help! But when my.. condition was said to be worse then it was she snapped again." The tears I tried to hold back just fell. Kageyama seemed to be shocked. He didn't know that this was the case and I dont think he ever would of guessed it.

He leans over to me a bit awkwardly and pulls me into a hug. When was the last time I even received a hug? My eyes start to string more.

●Kageyama's Pov●

Hinata was bawling.. I wish he wasn't crying so hard. I wish everything would be just better?

I can't say it's alright because it isn't for him.. "Shh.. Im here for you.." Should I try and comfort him more? I feel like he needs it.

I rub his back just trying to comfort him. Would this work? I'm not sure but it's what my Mom did for me when I was sad. Why did he have to go through this? He's such a great person.

Why did he start to cry harder? Did something else happen to him recently? "Shh..shh" I whisper into his soft hair.

"A- a few d-days ago.." He kept on choking on his words and stuttering.

"You don't have to tell me if it hurts so much, Hinata.." I whisper to him. I know my voice can sound harsh and I dont want to sound that way.

"I.. Want to.. tell.. someone.." I could tell he was trying to stop crying.

"When.. I got back home from Tokyo she screamed at me again. Over and over.. so loudly that the house felt like it was shaking. Saying it's my fault I became like this. My mother.. she tried to... kill me with a broken glass bottle-"

"WHAT" No no no that's not right that's too far! Just what was wrong with his mother! I'll have to talk with my Dad..

Hinata cries harder into my sweater. I pull him in closer and just let him cry. The others should be here soon.. Daichi should get here first or atleast Suga or Tanaka. I dont know how Tanaka would help but I know that Suga would be the best.

He's calm and cool minded when he needs to be.. Though I think Hinata just needs to cry right now. He's been so.. so strong if he has kept this to himself for all these years.

His cries seemed to get louder.. I wish I could do something for him right now but I can only help him if my Dad is home when I go home after the trip. I rest my head on his shoulder and wait.

Minutes went by that felt like hours. Hinata's cries became soft and soon enough only sniffles. I think he actually fell asleep. "Goodnight.. Hinata" I try to whisper gently.

I look around and notice someone showing up. "Oh.. Hey Tsukishima.."

I could see the confused look on his face from here. I dont think I should tell him.. but I can't let him be confused. "Hinata isn't doing good. That's really all I can tell you"

"Wow so a king like you has a heart" He laughs, folding his arms.

God.. he can make me angry so easily. "Yeah and if you heard his story maybe you'd have a but of sympathy for him. What hinata has gone through isn't something to joke about."

He.. actually looks concerned. Tsukishima drops his arms and walks closer. "What happened to him then!"

"Its-it's his mother! I can't tell you because he should tell you but he isnt in a good place! Alright!"

"..I'll accept that then.. Hey why are his.. shoes and socks kinda.. red?" Tsukishima hesitates to ask.

"Wait what.." I look at his feet and he's right. "Do you think we should check? It could either be a stain or something bad.." What if it's something from his mother..?

"We should" He kneels down and takes off one of his shoes. His eyes widen and he drops the shoe. "That doesn't look good Kageyama."

"What-?" I look over and his sock is soaked with blood. "Oh God.. He said his mother tried.. tried... tried to umm hurt him with a broken glass bottle.."

Tsukishima's head snaps up to meet my eyes. "What" He spits out harshly. His words hard with anger.

"I told you he isnt in a good place!!" I reply rather quickly.

Tsukishima quickly puts his bag down and digs through it. "It has to be in here..." He mumbles to himself.

Just what is he looking for? I could feel Hinata shake in my arms. Could it be from a lack of blood.. or a nightmare?

"Here it is." He pulls out a first aid kit.

"Why do you have that?" Im glad he does but just why...?

"Yamaguchi gets hurt easily. Doesn't seem like it but he's clumsy. I also have a sewing kit in here since he rips his clothing by accident a lot as well"

"Look at who has a heart now" A smirk adorns my face.

He narrows his eyes. "If you dare tell anyone I will expose that you let Hinata fall asleep on you. You know how rumors work with something like this" He glares at me. I nod, hesitantly.

"Try not to wake him up, he might panic. Okay?" Tsukishima nods.

He puts rubber gloves on and takes off both of his socks and shoes. His eyes widen. "These are glass cuts and so many bruises are on the bottom of his feet.." He takes out a rag and wipes down his feet, cleaning all of the blood up. He was careful the way he handled his feet.

"It doesn't look like glass are in the wounds so he might of gotten treated but I know Hinata isn't capable of this. We should try and get the full story later." He continues to take care of his feet.

"What are you doing to Hinata?" I jump at the voice. It was Ukai. Daichi was in tow behind Ukai.

"I-uhh"

"Was it his Mother?" Daichi comes over and kneels next to Tsukishima.

"How did you know" I sit up a bit, trying to be careful with hinata

"He told me everything before he left to go home" You could see the worry embedded into his eyes.

"Told you what?" Ukai's voice was sharp. He was also really worried about Hinata.

"His mother abused him and his sister after his Dad died. I guess it started up but.. why? He said she wasn't home."

"She came back. Hinata said that she was fine at first but something snapped again. He went to tokyo, I'm not sure why but it started again when he went back home.. he said something about his condition worsening?" I say quickly and hesitantly.

"He's treated now. I think it's better if we keep this between us four. If Hinata kept it to himself for so long it means he doesn't want other people to know. To worry."

"..Hinata told me something about a voice in his head that always puts himself down so it might be more then that. It could of distorted his view about us if it's trying to hurt him." Daichi speaks up.

"Yeah.. Kageyama you told me awhile ago that your Dad was a cop, yeah? Tell him. We should do what we can to help Hinata. Maybe we can convince him to stay with one of us." Coach Ukai suggests.

"Hinata's world is his little sister. So if we have any chance of getting him to stay with one of us it's if his sister can come as well. So I agree." I add.

"I can take them. My mom stays home so she can take care of Natsu. Like bring her to school and pick her up," Tsukishima surprisingly suggests.

"We need to see if Hinata is alright with this, and your mother Tsukishima." The blonde headed boy nods in agreement to Coach Ukai's words.

"Everyone seems to be arriving.." I say quietly. I nudge Hinata to get up. Tanaka and Nishinoya were coming in fast so I wipe away the tears that stained his eyes and cheeks. Surprisingly he didn't have any snot on him. Maybe his nose gets like stuffed instead of runny..

●Back to Hinata's Pov●

Everything was black at first but light slowly filtered in.

I saw.. so many faces around me. I felt so warm.. I look up and notice that Kageyama is still hugging me.

"Im sorry!" I move out of his embrace.

I wince at the pain in my feet. "When did you guys get.. here?"

"I got here after you fell asleep" Tsukishima replies quickly. He puts stuff back in his bag quickly but neatly.

I look over at Coach Ukai and Daichi.

"Im assuming we got here a few minutes after Tsukishima here," Ukai adds.

I nod and look down. "Everyone seems to be here.. or well walking over here. We should get on with this trip then, shouldn't we?"
