"Congrats on getting married, Tsukki!" Yamaguchi exclaimed.

"Yamaguchi, we just got engaged, we're not married yet." Kei told him.

"But really, congrats, Hinata, or well, Tsukishima." Kageyama said as Yams clinged onto him.

"I'm so proud of the both of you." Yachi smiled.

"May the best wishes come for the both of you." Kiyoko-san said.

"Thank you, you guys." I thanked them.

"What are friends for, right?" Noya-san said as he ruffled my hair.

"Tsukishima, take good care of Shoyo, OK?" Tanaka-san said as he playfully hit Kei's arm.

"I'll be the best husband for Shoyo, I promise." Kei promised as he hugged me from the back. I smiled. He will be a good husband.

"Shoyo, do you wanna keep this?" Mom asked. She handed me a middle-sized framed picture of me and another boy. I looked at the boy.

"Yes, I'm keeping this." I told her as I put it in my box of things that I want to take with me when I move in with Kei.

"Shoyo, who's that?" Kei asked as I put down the picture on a vintage table.

"Oh, that's my friend (L/n) (Y/n)." I told Kei.

"He seems nice. How about you invite him to the wedding?" Kei asked.

"... I can't... he passed away a long time ago." I told him. Kei seemed shocked by this.

"I-I see." He stuttered as he patted my shoulder. "Well, if you need anything, I'll be here, OK?"

"Mhm, I know."

"Kei, I'm going to sleep!" I told him. Kei was playing piano, and I'd rather not disturb him.

"OK." he replied as he continued to play.

I went to the bedroom. The bedsheets were a pretty shade of grey-yellow. I flopped onto the soft sheets and fell asleep almost immediately because of how tired I am after unpacking all the things.

I fell asleep that night. I waited, and waited, and I fell asleep. Where are you, (Y/n)? Why aren't you back at the camp yet?

"Help! Please! Leave me alone!"

I heard you... I did, but I didn't wake up. My subconscious heard you, wanted to wake me up, but I didn't. I was so deep in my upset that you left me. This was your fault anyways...

"Shoyo. Shoyo! Wake up!"

"Kei?" I asked as I woke up. Why does my face feel wet? Was I crying?

"Shoyo, what happened, why were you screaming?" he asked.

"Screaming? What was I screaming?" I asked.

"Something like 'it's my fault, I'm sorry' or 'no, I'm sorry.'" Kei said as he sat down as he wiped away what I think were my tears. I blinked.

"Oh," I said as I flopped back down on the bed. "You wanna know right?"

He nodded.

"You remember (Y/n), right?" I asked.

"Yeah." he replied.

"Well, I'll be honest, I dated him. But we stayed friends, we just had an awkward tension." I told him. "Thing is, (Y/n) was my setter back in Yukigaoka. We were the only ones who were on the volleyball team. He was probably better than Kageyama. We were so close, and we caught feelings for each other. We then dated after he confessed to me. We had many good memories with each other, including that picture."

"Mhm. Go on."

"In that picture, (Y/n) just won a wrestling contest, and we took a photo together in the wrestling ring. I think his mom still has the trophy. Well, that clearly didn't last, because we broke up. (Y/n) had caught feelings for this other guy. His name was Kobayashi Souta. That's relevant. (Y/n) broke up with me to be with Kobayashi. He was the biggest Always and Forever type guy. He was a mythic bioch. I understood that (Y/n) didn't have feelings for me anymore. I accepted that, and we were still friends. One day, (Y/n)'s dad invited Kobayashi and I to a camping trip. We agreed. On the last night of the trip, (Y/n) and Kobayashi decided to gather up wood for our bonfire. I agreed to stay on look out until they came back."

"I have a bad feeling about this Kobayashi guy." Kei said to me.

"Yeah, he was a horrible person. I was really salty that (Y/n) broke up with me to be with him, even when we went on that camping trip a few months after we broke up." I informed him.

"Mhm, continue then."

"OK. Well, they were in the woods for very long. So long, in fact, that I fell asleep. I don't know how long I was sleeping for, but I heard (Y/n) scream "Help! Please! Leave me alone!" I was like, half awake by then. I thought he was yelling at a bug or something so I, who was salty, didn't get up to help him. But then later, I heard Kobayashi laugh hysterically, followed by saying "We'll be together forever" then stabbing a few times, then (Y/n)'s horrid scream. Then I realized he was yelling at Kobayashi to leave him alone. I knew if he knew I was awake, I'd be dead, so I called the police quietly, and he was arrested. It was obviously my fault, I could've helped him, and we would've still been friends. He was actually going to join Karasuno as well, but he's dead." I said quietly. "He shaped who I became today. Before he broke up with me, he told me to become great, and look at me now. I became great."
