Chapter Five
*Your P.O.V.*
I hadn't bothered the tall male lately. Honestly, I hadn't been able to bother any of the guys lately. I knew that they had just had a scrimmage with Aoba Johsai high, but last I knew Noya wasn't allowed to play yet, but that suspension should have been long over. However, they didn't have Asahi back either.
Today, practice finished early, so I decided to stop by the other gym to see what the boys were doing. When I entered the gym, I had seen the boys spread around. Some were stretching, others were passing back between one another, but it didn't seem that they were having a set practice schedule.
"Is that (Y/N)?" I instantly heard across the gym.
I looked over to see who the owner of the voice was, and I saw Tanaka and little Noya. Noya was obviously the more enthused one, considering I hadn't seen him in quiet some time. I smiled back to the two, giving a large wave. I was planning to go over to them, but Dachi and Suga approached me before I could even make my way over there.
"Well, well, well, we haven't seen you in quiet some time," Suga chuckled.
I smiled back to the two of them. "Practice got over early today, so I thought I'd come over here and check out what you guys were doing."
"Well, we're having more sort of an open gym," Dachi explained, "but you're more than welcome to stay and we—"
Suddenly, Dachi was cut off as the gym door aggressively opened, and the men's coach, Takeda frantically shouted, "Um, excuse me!"
Dachi instantly called all the boys in the gym over, as I awkwardly blended into the crowd. However, my discomfort instanly faded as a familiar looking man walked in behind Takeda, catching everyone's attention.
"This is Ukai," Takeda announced. "As of today, he'll be your coach! Say hello everyone!"
Everyone stood in shock as we all started at the man with the two-toned hair. Dachi instantly started questioning everything, confused with the announcement, but Ukai simply explained to him that he only planned on coaching until the Nekoma game. Then, Tanaka pointed out the fact that the man standing in front of us was the man who ran the Sakanoshita store, which made way since, considering the familiar face. To everyone's surprise, the store was owned on his mother's side, and the man that stood in front of us happened to be a former Karasuno volleyball club member and the old coach Ukai's grandson.
"Anyways, we can't waste anymore time," coach Ukai said. "I set up a game for you guys at 6:30, so let's see what you got. They're going to be here soon."
"Who?" Dachi questioned, as we all looked around confused.
"Our friendly Neighborhood Association team," Ukai stated. "So, let's get to it!"
The boys instantly dispersed among the gym, leaving me to stand there alone in front of the new coach, and I would be the first to admit that I was a bit nervous. Takeda never had a problem with letting me step into practices, but I didn't know this guy, nor did I know how he'd feel about the disruption.
He looked down to me, giving me a confused look. "And who are you? ...you're earing gear, so I'm going to assume that you aren't a manager..."
I instantly bowed to him, introducing myself, "I am (Y/N). I play on the women's team. Practice got over early tonight, and I was just stopping by to get in more reps."
"So, you play?" he questioned.
I looked up to him and nodded.
"Well, perfect. The game was such short notice, not all the guys could come. There are a few spots that need to be filled, so we could use you," Ukai said. "Go serve with the boys."
I nodded to him before grabbing a ball and joining the rest of the guys. The time passed by quick, and soon the Neighborhood Association team showed up. We all introduced ourselves and then slip up into teams, ready to start the match.
