Chapter 1: Part - one
"Aiko! Wake up!" your grandfather yelled from the kitchen of your cozy home. his shouting brought you out of the dream you had been having about cookies and reminded you that it was a Monday. not just any Monday. YOU HAD EXAMS TODAY!!! It's not that you were all that dumb... well, maybe a little bit. but that's not the point! you could never sit in a stuffy classroom for that long!
"Alright, I'm coming!" you groaned, reminding the old man that you were NOT a morning person. you tumbled out of your twin-sized bed and pulled up the baby blue sheets. you slowly make your way to the bathroom, where you tie your smooth black hair into a neat ponytail. after pulling on your uniform, you stumbled down the stairs to eat breakfast.
After devouring a plate of pancakes, you grabbed your stuff and skipped out the door to go meet your best friend to walk to school. [AN: your best friend is in the picture at the top] Her name was Hanako Suzuki, she was very pretty but rather anti-social. she loved sweet things but didn't talk much, she also had amazing grades. (which you are super envious of, in a friendly way)
"Suzuki-chan! you ready to go?" you shouted while jumping on her for your daily bear hug.
"yep. we have a test today, did you study?" you shook your head," I told you to study! if you fail, you will miss the soccer training camp for your lessons! and your grandfather will NOT be happy with you," she scolded, but her frown quickly vanished when the school came into view. You skipped through the gates, pulling her behind you. "Hey Aiko-chan!" you received greetings from loads of people. This always made you happy so you would say the same to them, and give them a smile that made everyone who saw it smile in return. You and Suzuki split up, and with the extra time, you had before class started you thought you would go say 'hello' to your Grandfather.
after winding through the packed hallways, stopping now and then to say 'hello', you made it to the gym. "hello?" you asked gaining the attention of some of the tall boys practicing, "has my grandfather come yet?" you ask,
" would your grandfather happen to be Coach Nekomata?" questioned a boy with the weirdest hairstyle you had ever seen. " yes that would be him!" you beamed, making some boys blush and the others just stare. "I was going to say hello to him before morning classes start!" the taller boy made his way across the court to you, with the worlds funniest smirk on his face. "is that so... well you are welcome to watch practice until he arrives," the bed-headed weirdo suggested. I smiled, a heartwarming smile then pranced over to the bleachers before plopping myself down on the far side of the large gym.
[AN: sorry about the POV! I think it is going to mostly be the third person right now!]
Aiko would often find herself laughing at the team's petty arguments, but the way that they moved as a group made her good mood even better!
"Watch out!" someone shouted to get Aiko out of her daze. she looked up and saw a ball heading straight for her face! letting her reflexes kick in, she reached up and stopped the ball in a split second. the room went silent, none of the boys there had expected her to be able to react that fast, let alone doing it without flinching! She saw their shocked faces and began to laugh. a beautiful laugh, some boys joined in, some smiled, and some remained silent.
" Well hello, I forgot to introduce myself!" She was beaming, and her happy tone was calming. But it was that she stood there with a ball in one hand, her long black hair blowing a bit with the windows soft breeze, and the way that her teal eyes shined in the morning's soft light, that made the boys all stop what they were doing and just stare.
" I'm Aiko Nekomata! captain of the soccer team, year two class three!" it was the funny haired caption who spoke up first, " I'm Kuroo Tetsuro, the caption of the volleyball club, year three class four," everyone made their introductions, and everyone was blown away at how cheery this girl was. she just kept smiling, and laughing, the whole time! then she skipped up to kuroo, making him wildly uncomfortable under her stare, and then she started laughing! she fell over wheezing and cracking up, making everyone in the gym sweat-drop. "Y-your hair! W-what is T-HAT?" she managed to make out, she pointed to Kuroo's hair. He looked mildly offended and everyone in the gym started laughing, even the soft-spoken Kenma. "Hey!" she said, now directing all of her focus on the quite setter, "YOU.CAN.SMILE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" everyone was confused when she jumped up and tacked him with a huge hug, " I thought you were just sad all the time! but you can smile!" before he could say anything, there was yelling at the door,
"Aiko Nekomata! Leave my players alone! you are scaring the poor boy!" she snapped her head to see her grandfather standing at the door, "Coach it's alright-" he was cut off by the childish girl, "GRANDPA!!!!!! I came to see you but you were not here yet!" she got off of Kenma, who was slightly blushing at this point, and hopped over to her grandfather. The boys watched as Aiko hugged him, and he rolled his eyes, eventually giving in and returning the hug.
"I'm very sorry if she said anything! she may she a second year and the caption of the soccer team, but she acts like a three-year-old!" the old man chuckled slightly before scolding her again. she pouted for a moment before recalling the reason she had wanted to speak with him in the first place, "Grandpa! I have a game after school today! you wanna come? wait, the whole team should come!!!" some of the boys nodded in excitement, as the others waited for their coaches response.
"Well I was going to say that there was no practice after school today, so why not?"
