The Birth of A Volleyball Legend

"He is so handsome too! A little bit below Riku-sama, maybe!"

"We are so lucky we have two handsome boys in our class!"

Yuki twitched his mouth slightly when he heard the whispers from the girl around him, starting to feel annoyed. He knew that if he played well while being watched by all the students in the school, there was no way he wouldn\'t get fangirls like Riku had. However, what happened here was a bit exaggerated.

All of his movements were observed carefully, and those crazy fangirls could make anything he did become way more dramatic. For example, when he picked up his pen that fell on the floor…

"Look at him! He bows so gracefully!"

"Kyaa! He is so cool!"

"I want to be a pen that he picks it up!"

"Me too!"

Yeah, those fangirls were crazy, and it started to scare the shit out of him.

However, that wasn\'t the worst thing he was concerned about. No, while Yuki was trying his best to shrink his presence and get out of those fangirls\' crazy eyes, he cursed Akira over and over again inside his mind for the pain the coach – and the headmaster to some extent inflicted on the team.

And even though he didn\'t know how was his senpai\'s condition, Yuki was sure they all felt the same right now.

-Flashback-

\'GO BACK TO THE CLASS?! ARE YOU KIDDING, SENSEI?!\'

It was after the game was over and the chaotic situation was settled, after waiting until the bus that carried Kyoei\'s team was gone, that Akira suddenly made an announcement.

\'No, I am not joking and it is not a prank either.\' Akira answered calmly, ignoring the disbelief gaze he received from his players. \'As you can see, it is still a school hour, and all the students who support us here would also go back to the class.

Even though the headmaster is kind enough to dismiss the morning class so that the students can support us, it would be unfair if everyone went back while you are allowed to skip the class for the rest of the day. So…. Good luck.\'

-End of the flashback-

So… Yeah, here he was, after about two hours of an exhausting game, already in the class again to listen to the boring lesson the teacher gave.

\'You are a terrible man, Sensei.\' Yuki groaned inwardly while trying his best to hide his yawn. \'Man, this is a nightmare. I wonder how is Riku\'s condition?\'

He turned his head slightly, trying his best to look behind. However, the sight there made him fall into jealousy, as he saw Riku sleeping so peacefully while his spot was hidden perfectly by the other students in front of him.

\'Damn, so this is why he chose the seat behind, huh?\'

Yuki shook his head, trying to concentrate once again on the class. Time seemed to move so slowly, testing his patience as every second was like torture for him. His head kept going back and forth from the board to the clock, and he kept cursing over and over again to force himself to stay awake.

Fortunately, the time he had been waiting for finally came, and the sound of the school bell ringing from outside of the building was like an oasis in the middle of the desert.

"Urgh…" Yuki groaned, stretching his stiff body. "Finally, it is over…"

Kato who was sitting in front of him giggled when she heard his groan, then turned around and said, "You are like an old man, Kobayashi-kun."

Akira glared when he heard the giggle, then scowled. "You don\'t know how torturous it was to join the class with a body that is threatening to crumble at any random time. And unlike Riku, I cannot even sleep in the class! My position is too close to the teacher\'s desk for me to go unnoticed!"

Kato arched one of her eyebrows slightly, noticing the change in how Yuki addressed the blonde boy. "Since when are you and Riku close enough to be on a first-name basis?" She asked.

"Since the last game, Sekine-jiisan\'s instruction," Yuki answered. Kato just nodded slightly, didn\'t even ask who Sekine-jiisan Yuki was talking about. "What? Are you jealous and want to be on a first-name basis with us too?" A playful smile suddenly formed on Yuki\'s face.

Kato just rolled her eyes, which was enough to answer Yuki\'s question. "Speaking of Riku…" Suddenly, there was a hint of mischievousness behind her smile, giving Yuki a bad feeling. "I heard that you also have your own fangirls. Are you going to be our second local lothario?"

Her giggle broke into laughter as she saw the utter disgust shown on Yuki\'s face.

"Look… Look at your expression! That is hilarious!" Kato gasped, holding her stomach that got hurt from the laughter.

"Haha, very funny, Kato-san." This time, it was Yuki\'s turn to roll his eyes. Then, he leaned his body forward, lowering his voice so that the others couldn\'t hear him. "They are creepy, Kato-san. They keep watching everything I do and could always make a comment based on it, which is crazy. I don\'t know how Riku could stand with them, but I am starting to get afraid of them."

Seeing the frightened expression on Yuki\'s face, Kato stiffened her giggle. However, she still patted his shoulder before saying, "Don\'t worry, they won\'t dare to take initiative here. As long as you are not making any contact with them, they will keep their distance from you."

"How are you so sure?" Yuki asked skeptically.

"Don\'t worry about it. Just trust me." Kato said it once again, yet this time with a hint of mysteriousness in her tone.

Yuki stared at his friend for a second, trying to see any clues hidden on her face. However, seeing Kato put a poker face at him, the glasses boy sighed, knowing he had to trust the girl for this one.

Before he could say anything though, someone suddenly called him from outside of the class.

"Oi, Yuki! Come here! Bring Riku with you too!"

When Yuki turned around, he was surprised to see Kaede and Hirano standing in front of the door. Even though there was a hint of tiredness on their face, they still waved their hand cheerfully at him. Well… it was just Kaede who did that, as Hirano just grunted and pretended his best to ignore the stare.

Didn\'t want to make his two senpai waiting, Yuki rose from his seat and went there. "What happened?" He asked.

"Akira-sensei asked us to pick you up, so here we are. Come on, bring Riku with you!"
