“ thanks … for the ice pack , i mean . ” he hadn’t been expecting the other’s help , not when considering the almost bitter nature of their team’s rivalry . in fact , he didn’t even know the girl’s name , let alone anything else about her aside from the obvious fact that she was one of karasuno’s managers and that she was clearly very kind . he’d stupidly taken a harsh dive for a receive , silently hoping no one had noticed the way his jaw made direct contact with the floor as he’d gotten up to brush it off . but even now ― with the hastily made ice pack pressed against his face ― he could feel it throbbing , and he couldn’t deny he was secretly thankful she’d been paying attention . / @yacchanx
She didn’t know a lot about volleyball, she was still learning rules, points, positions and a lot of other stuff. Thinking about these things still brought her a lot of anxiety, but Hitoka really wanted to help her team and wanted to be part of the volleyball team as well.
Another thing she had to learn was first aid. It was something she had to be familiar with. It was useful when the ball hit Hinata’s face so many times during practices and now, the girl was used to watch carefully not just her team (when Hinata and Kageyama performed their super fast quick, she still jumped from the bench, cheering for them), but even the other. Shimizu-senpai used to tell her to watch better the opposing team than Karasuno, and, she happened to look the exact moment when the number 13 of Aoba Johsai literally fell on the floor for a receive. Her heart almost stopped when she heard the noise his chin made and, without thinking twice, took the Karasuno’s first aid kit and run towards the boy.
Now they were sitted on a bench, the girl pressing the ice pack on his jaw, focused on it. Her golden eyes looked at him.
“I-It’s okay” stuttered a little, shy. It was her first time talking with him and didn’t know his name either. “I mean, if it hurts just tell me!”
She didn’t know if it was the right thing to do and it made her really anxoius. Oh no, what if she was not doing the right thing? What if she was hurting him? What if he was hating her right now? She was literally trembling in front of him.
