"I raise my glass to my best friend who managed to be selected for an internship in Berlin and at Omi and Tsum-Tsum for their imminent departure also for one of the great European volleyball teams !"
Bokuto raised his glass, a big smile on his face and we all followed him in the process.
It had been a few days since I passed the selection and I was successful so we had a little party at home to celebrate the following weekend. Everyone was there, all our friends wanted to celebrate with us.
"Too bad you weren't all leaving at the same time ! It would have been cool if you ended up in Germany." Michi reflected as she took a big sip from her glass of champagne. "Tsum, Omi, when are you leaving ?" She continued.
"Soon." Atsumu replied curtly, lowering his head.
Michi gave him a questioning look making him understand that his answer was too vague.
"We're leaving next weekend.The camp starts in early May but you need time to settle in and meet the other members of the camp." Sakusa replied instead of Tsum who stood up suddenly.
"I'm going to the bathroom."
And he left without saying another word.
"Don't you think he's been weird lately ?" Hinata asked, kissing the forehead of her girlfriend whom we had finally met.
"I couldn't tell you. It's been a while since I've seen him." Said Suna giving me a discreet look.
Osamu and Bokuto nodded and Jada silently asked me if I knew why Atsumu was like this.
It's true that for the last few days he had been weird, more distant. Yeah, much more distant.
"Anyway ! Hina you can't wait to go ?"
I turned to Kuroo and smirked at him.
"It's going to be great! It's a huge opportunity to be taken for the entire season ! Plus Allan is taken for the camp too !"
"Who is Allan ? Is he your boyfriend in France ?" Suna laughed in her chair.
"No, he was his teammate in France !" Hinata laughed.
"Actually, Suna is not wrong." I huffed my hand through my hair before resuming. "He is my ex."
All my friends turned to me except Bokuto who already knew.
"You didn't tell us." Akaashi said simply.
"We're not together anymore and now he's gay so I didn't think it was important for me to say that."
"You could have told me anyway."
I turned suddenly to Atsumu who was back in the room.
"Well now you know that."
Atsumu sat down next to Sakusa and crossed his arms sulkily.
"You know Hina, you would be better off with me than with Tsum !" Suna resumed by opening a new beer.
Atsumu straightened up suddenly and I raised my eyebrows not understanding why Tsum's friend had let it go like that.
"Are you stupid or what Suna ? Hina loves Atsumu eh." Hinata said Looking up to the skies.
I blushed and Atsumu slapped Hinata behind the head.
"Oh come on Hina, Tsum is going to go away we can enjoy it together !" Suna continued.
"Dude what are you playing here ?" Atsumu stood up, approaching Suna dangerously.
"Well no I don't want to enjoy it with you !" I say at the same time as Tsum.
"come on guys, you're not going to mess around !" Bokuto said, trying to lighten the mood. "Dude she's just not into you." He continued towards Suna.
Suna seated herself correctly in her chair and laughed to herself.
"I know ! I just wanted to prove to Atsumu that he really loved Hina. It was a test for me and him."
Atsumu opened his eyes wide then laughed in turn before sitting down.
"You are really stupid Rin." Tsum confirmed as if he knew what this test was all about.
"Whatever ! Hina when does the tournament start ? That way I could take some days off to be there for your races." Jada asked, stroking Omi's hand.
"How's that on May 15. I have my first race in the morning." I confirmed to Jada who was taking notes on her phone.
After several minutes of talking I got up and indicated to the others that I was going to the kitchen and poured myself a glass of water.
My glass of water finished, lips rested on my scalp.
"Can I sleep with you tonight ?" Atsumu asked me, hugging me.
"Um yes."
He turned me around and rested his forehead on mine before kissing me.
