extras;

♫ atsumu makes all of his friends become friends because he wants his favorite people to get along together it makes him so happy 🙁

♫ this is right before the training camp arc in this timeline idek what im doing but it’s fine ig

♫ atsumu scares off his new friends before actually becoming friends with them.. why?? nobody knows

♫ hoshiumi goes to the beach frequently in my mind, he likes beach volleyball but most of the time he’s at the beach it’s for the ocean

♫ i think he’d like bodyboarding/boogie boarding but it’s just for fun

♫ they went to the beach once and sakusa complained about the sand sticking to him after he was forced by both atsumu and hoshiumi to at least get his feet in the water..

♫ kageyama and osamu build sand castles together

horns up! ♫

you had just arrived at school it was 7:10, call time was 7:25 but if you actually arrive at 7:25 you’re already late, there was this unspoken rule to always be there before fall time but you already made habit to be at the school earlier than it anyway. you opened the door to the building that housed all the performing arts classes, it might as well just be your second home and with the amount of time you’ve spent with the members of the band, it felt like home, it felt like a family. more so than your actual family.

the early morning light poured through the windows as you walked the hall, taking in the sight of the barely risen sun against the soft pinks and oranges that came with the rising sun. you noticed how the soft and fluffy clouds adorn the morning sky. it was a sight you’ve seen many times before, it didn’t make it any less beautiful. or at least it didn’t to you. times like that made you wonder how it would feel to wake up next to your lover, to watch the sunrise together, to run your fingers through his blonde hair, soft because he had just washed it the night before. while watching the sunrise your lips would come together, smiling after they part. and after the kiss you’d find yourself staring into his eyes, the warm sunlight reflecting against them so beautifully. his eyes were a deep brown that would sparkle when he would play volleyball or when he-

there in that very hallway at 7:13 am you had realized that you did want something out of your crush with atsumu miya.

it started as a silly adoration that you never paid much attention to, perhaps you were scared of the day where you had to come face to face with your feelings about the boy. right now you’re standing in front of your locker, the case of your instrument ready to be picked up but, you stand

there, lost in thought. you loved him, such an odd and scary thing to admit, but in spite of that.. it feels natural to do so. even if you didn’t interact often. you knew you loved him and this isn’t some empty and baseless realization. you’ve observed him, you’ve spent so much time watching him at volleyball games that you know his behaviors, not on a personal level but to the point where you were able to fall in love with him.

and at first it was a chore, the marching band had been asked to go to all the volleyball tournament matches each day as a pep band. it cut time that could’ve been used to practice, but it quickly became less of a chore when you were able to watch atsumu play. you had heard about him, the best high school setter in japan, what a feat! but you had also known of his charm and fan girls you had experienced the latter firsthand.. you weren’t charmed by his appearance alone, it was mostly on how he treats others that made you weak in your knees. it wasn’t the condescending jabs or provoking comments that made you swoon... it was his ability to see the best in people and his determination to make them flourish that came with it. that was what made your crush on the setter bloom. when you look past his bitchy attitude, it was just plain and simple that he just wanted to bring the best out of his teammates and others. though the way he executes it might be selfish and just for his own personal gain, but you can tell he truly cares for the people he plays with whether he admits that or not is a different story. he has too much pride to admit that, but we all have our own faults. pride and perfectionism might just be his.

atsumu has this hunger when playing volleyball that would only be satisfied by being the best. and you’d be lying to yourself if you didn’t find that itself attractive. but besides being an extremely talented volleyball player,he was also just a boy, you’ve seen him off the court more times than you’ve seen him on it. you found yourself endeared with his seemingly childish rivalry with his brother. it reminded you of how young you were, that we are not the same people we were the day before, people’s goals and dreams are ever changing.

maybe you should have realized your crush on atsumu had grown into something more once you found yourself observing him outside volleyball games. you never really interacted besides the good mornings you gave to each other as you passed each other both of you on your ways to your morning practices. you weren’t in the same class but he has recognized you as someone in his brothers class, he was friendly despite what others have told you about him. you’ve been told he acts like a jerk to others and you won’t lie he does, but so does nearly every boy your age. atsumu is just one of the many boys you could have fallen for. despite his attitude he’s funny, attentive, cunning, and dedicated. traits you found yourself looking for in a partner..

you have entertained the idea of a future lover before and you hate to admit it you have spent some time thinking about how much you would like to hold atsumu’s hand, to be the one he looks for after a match, you always pushed them down saying that those were silly and childish things to think about but, part of you wanted it and you should’ve realized that your idle crush on him would leave you daydreaming of waking up next to him watching the sunrise and sharing a kiss together. though you are nervous to how you will react to this realization when you have the time to think about it but, you’re glad that it’s atsumu miya who you’ve fallen for.

and you hope that your silly fantasy of waking up next atsumu miya would one day be true.

extras;

♫ all region band is an audition only ensemble!! which is a big deal ! only second to all nation band which is also audition. but you can only audition for that if you made regionals.. both are hosted by jboda (japan band and orchestra directors association)

♫ in both audition processes it’s a faceless audition! the proctor doesn’t see you and you don’t see them !! you have to preform three études (from that years set which are provided by jboda) two major scales that differ between instrument and your chromatic scale!!!

♫ enough about auditions.. tsukishima had to put up with kageyama and y/n with their crushes. he’s sick of both of them (lovingly)

♫ kuroo has already moved practice that would’ve been next saturday so he and akaashi can go watch y/n.. he just wants to support his fellow nerd 💔

♫ y/n isn’t freaking out yet… they will start tweaking once marching season is over and they kinda don’t want to think about it. they know they love atsumu but what to do about it… that’s a future y/n problem!!

♫ call time is in the morning bc the band runs through their show at least three times before getting ready to ride the bus to the comp, ichibayashi is about two hours from inarizaki but they perform in the evening because they’re a big band have a high seed because they’re one of the best in their division !!!
