This book is really failing and it's kind of disheartening. I really like Haikyuu and wanted to make a book on it but now it's falling hard...it's...whatever let's get going

◂ ❚ ⊱Asahi's POV⊰ ❚ ▸

"Alright everyone that's the end of practice, everyone!" Ukai yelled out getting the entire team's attention. "Get everything put away and get the hell outta here." We all yell out yes to him before Tsukishima and I started to get the net down. Hinata cocked his head to the side as he looked away. "Hey, where did (Y/N) go?" "She said she had to do something and left earlier." I glanced over in slight worry. (Y/N) and I walked together since she was scared of walking alone especially when it started to get dark so her just up and leaving worried me. 

"Did she get a ride?" Ukai shrugged as he picked up the ball that was rolling away from Sugawara. "I don't think so why Ashai?" Tsukishima clicked his tongue and rolled his eyes. "Cause Ace here walks with (Y/N) since he likes her." My face went red and before I could deny him, of his very true accusation, the entire team surrounded me with Tsukishima taking the net out of my hands. 

"You like (Y/N)?" "I had no idea" "Does she know?" "Are you two dating?" "I swore you were gay! You really like (Y/N)??" I looked away from everyone and rubbed the back of my neck. "Y-Yeah O-Okay fine yes I like our Assistant Manager s-so?" As if they were middle school girls Hinata, Nishinoya and Tanaka squealed as jumped up. "FUCK YEAH!! THE ACE HAS A CRUSH!" "DUDE I THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA BE SINGLE FOREVER HELL YEAH" "I'M REALLY HAPPY FOR YOU ASAHI!" My face was hot and my hands were tangled together behind me. I really didn't want my crush to be known to everyone. At least not like this. 

"When are you gonna tell her?" I looked over at Daichi who had his arms crossed with his bag over his shoulder. "I uh...wasn't planning on it" I was suddenly hit with a swing to the back of the head by not only Daichi but Nishinoya as well. "Tell her!" They said in unison as I rubbed the back of my head. Tsukishima Kageyama and Tanaka laughed and I rolled my eyes at them. "It's really not that big of a deal guy-" Suddenly my phone went off by my bags and Sugawara leaned over to look at it for me. "It says...(N/N) with an (F/C) heart next to it." 

The first years and Tanaka all 'Oohed' at me but I didn't care as I walked over and answered it. "Hello? (Y/N)? Is everything okay?" I could hear her breathing and it seemed...short and shallow, to say the least. "As-Asahi...Um...i-is practice over?" I raised an eyebrow and crossed my arm across my chest, resting the other arm holding my phone on it. "Yeah it just did is everything okay? Uzai said you left early." I could hear her shuffling and moving. 'She must be on her bed' "I-I...n-need...C-Could you come over please?" I could hear the desperation in her voice. Her voice alone was alarm enough. It sounded as if she's been crying and for some time. "Of course I'll be there as soon as possible!" The urgency in my tone made my team look at me in worry or concern. 

I hung up and quickly shoved my stuff into my bag and put on my jacket. There wasn't any time to change here. "Where are you going?" Sugawara asked cocking his head to the side. "(Y/N) needs me, Sorry I'll clean most of it next time but she needs me" I zipped up my jacket and raced out the door. 

"....Dramatic much?" 

"Shut up Bean pole." 

"Make me Shorty!" 

᠃ ⚘᠂ ⚘Your POV⚘ ᠂ ⚘ ᠃

I was wrapped in one of my weighted blankets with one of my playlists in the background playing on my TV and was crying into my blanket. While I was at the Practice I got...terrible news about my parents. First, one being that my dad whos been fighting lung cancer for years isn't going to be able to get treatment since of how much it's grown since the last time. Second, my dad might not make it to see the next year. I wanted to cry, rip my heart out since it seemed to only make my chest heavier, rack my brain for anything that could make the pain stop. 

I didn't want to lose my dad and I don't want my mom to lose her greatest love. I called Asahi a little while ago I still don't know why but I do know that he'll do his best to help me. He knows where the spare key is to my house and knows which room is mine. He's been over more than enough times that my parents see him as a part of our family and that he's welcome anytime. 

I could hear my parent's voices outside my door but I couldn't tell what they were saying. I closed my eyes as tears trailed down my face as I heard the door open and softly shut to not scare me. "(Y/N)?" I opened my eyes and looked up to see the 6-foot volleyball star standing by my bed. I believe he saw how puffy and red my eyes were or how wet trails decorated my cheeks or simply how messy my hair was or maybe just how gross I looked in general.

There was a lot of signs telling him I was a wreck and honestly I didn't care all that much. He sat down on my bed beside me and rest his hand on my back. "Is everything okay?" I shook my head and rested my head on his shoulder my body shaking as I cried and tried to stable my breathing. "Do you want to talk about it?" I paused as I thought about it. I needed to talk about it or I was going to keep bottling it up and eventually my emotions will explode but at the same time did I want to? I didn't want to cry and look even more of a mess than I already did in front of Asahi.

"I'm going to take that as a maybe later?" Asahi mumbled as he rubbed my back. I nodded not wanting to use my voice at the moment. I feared it would break and sound as if I was a 30 year old chain smoker. I closed my eyes as my breathing slowly started to stabilize and before I could do anything about it I was lifted up off my bed and into the air. I squeezed my eyes tighter since I was not one for a heights. After a few moments of being in the air I was set back down but I could tell it wasn't my bed. I cracked open my eyes and saw...a orange volleyball uniform. 

"You...did not just put me on you're lap." My voice creaked out as I tried to clear my throat. A soft chuckle broke through the air. "I may or may not have. Is it a bad thing?" I shook my head and a soft laugh left my lips. "No...No it's not." I snuggled my head into his chest and matched my breathing with his. His chest was warm and I could feel his hands resting on my sides holding me in place so I couldn't move. It was comforting. "Thank you Asahi" I mumbled to him and unknown to me Asahi's face was warm and red. "Of course (N/N) I'm always here to comfort you. Whenever you need it." 

I smiled and looked up at him seeing his face. His smile mirrored onto my face and I didn't mind. "Are you gonna tell me now?" I nodded and started to explain to him what I was told and what had happened up till now. His face changed from hopeful to worried then upset. "(N/N)...I'm so sorry you were told that. That's one of the....worst news someone can get." I wiped the tears forming on the brink of my eyes and nodded. "I just...don't know what to do." Asahi looked up for a second before returning to my eyes. 

"Well there isn't much we can do. I don't mean that in a bad way but it is the truth. However, what you can do is to appreciate the time you have with him and make it the best time you both can ever have. If he's not staying much longer then don't let the time you have with him go to waste. And when he is gone I know he wouldn't want you to be sad all the time. He'd want you to be happy and live your life to the fullest." I let his words sink in. He was right of course. He always was. Asahi was the best at giving advice and he gave me the best advice ever. 

"Thank you Asahi for everything. You always prove time and time again that you're trustworthy." I leant in and kissed his cheek making his face explode in multiple shades of Red. I let a soft chuckle leave my lips as I snuggled into him letting my eyes grow heavy and falling sleep on him. He always seems to comfort me right into sleep.
