Strangers

End

-Chapter 8 "End"-
Nationals were already coming up. Just how fast can time run without taking a small and harmless break?
. . .
Sakusa pov💭
My father.
He invited me into his office.
I was scared. Really scared. I didn't want to enter, I didn't want to open the door.
But yet. With trembling hands, I did.
Opening the door I saw my father behind his wooden old desk. And next to him three girl stood straight but their eyes didn't dare to meet mine.
-These three will help you with.... let's call it sexual activity, Since you'll be taking my place you have to know how to be a real man, these three will teach you ways and tricks to enjoy yourself and torture the other, I do not care about your opinion son.
  ..... 
What? I didn't move. My body was paralyzed. Was this just another bad dream?
-Fucking brat! GET OUT. 
  I still didn't move. I was trying to understand the situation. It's just that I couldn't, I couldn't understand why would father do this? I couldn't understand why I had to do this. Even though I knew all the answers, I still didn't understand.
-LOUIS GET THIS TRASH AWAY FROM ME.
My father screamed at one of his servants who was standing at the door.
-Yes Master.
Said louis before coming infront of me and hitting the top of my head kind of harshly to get me back to reality.
Did it work? Not really.
  . . .
I was once again on the floor of my room. The room was a really big one, yet no windows, no night Sky, no stars. My room had just a mattress where I sleep on, bedside table and two doors. One was the door which you normally entered and left. And the other one was the only door that lead to the Abyss (explanation will come later) which you needed a card to enter and leave.
It once again hit me where I was. A hell. And I'm not the only one who's locked here.
For 1000 years everyone who stepped in this place never knew or felt what happiness actually truly is.
I rememeber my inocent 14 year old self asking mother about the bracelet on our legs. She said it was just some normal bracelet. I remember when I accidently snuck inside father's security room and saw so many dots on a big screen. Each dot had a name on top of it. Even I  had my own dot but I never asked mom about it.
Truth hurts. Sometimes I wonder what happened to Komori how is he still sane? How didn't he find out. I asked Louis this question.
-Master Komori? He picked the blue pill. when he was born the Master (refering to his father) made him choose, but of course the baby wouldn't understand a thing. Still luckly it chose blue and will never find the truth. Unless Master wants him to get married.
( The explanation will come in later, I will start a new book for Sakusas story)
. . .
Tommorow the nationals start. First match will be between Inarizaki and Itachiyama. But still I wish I didn't get the news today. Father was clearly trying to sabotage me. And he did it well
. . .
Atsumu pov💭
Tommorow we have a match against Itachiyama. First one this year. I'm actually really looking forward to it and I'm exited! The team overall is weaker than last year but that doesn't mean we will lose!!
. . .
Next day
Sakusa pov 💭
I'm tired. If we lose this match then my father will force me to do all my exams at home and then will take me to those girls. Those girls. I feel bad for them. I hope it's not like they want to do what they are going to do.
I'll try my best today. I promise you mom.

Atsumu pov 💭
We entered the court, and we saw the memebers of Itachiyama warm up so we dressed up and started the warm up too.
.

No ones pov 💭
The match started.
-CAPTAIN!
Both the captain of Itachiyama, Sakusa Kiyoomi and the captain of Inarizaki Atsumu Miya came to shake hands.
It was well known that Sakusa refuzed to shake hands with anyone so he'd just bow, but today it was diffrnet.
Sakusas eyes lit up just like when watching the stars. Today was the last day he'll see Atsumu and he wanted to make the best out of it.
-Captain of Inarizaki, Atsumu Miya, Let's have a great match, you unknown stranger.
Sakusa took atsumus hand into his, And God Sakusa felt happy. Today it might be the last day the boys will meet but still he wanted to see Atsumu smile.
-OMI WHAT THE FU- uhm! Captain of Itachiyama, Sakusa Kiyoomi, Let's not get hurt, ok you unknown stranger?
Sakusa Smiled. He felt like crying.(I do too) He never smiled at anyone except for Komori since that day. And now Atsumu Miya made him smile.
And even more Behind that mask of his there was a slowly rising light pink color on his cheecks.
.
.
.
.
Inarizaki won the first set.
Sakusa felt happy even if they lost. Atsumu was Smilling and that made him happy. How can a smile be so healing?
. . .
At the end of the match Itachiyama lost. But Sakusa didn't realize that, he was too happy watching Atsumu celebrate.
....
Sakusa pov💭
We lost. Atsumu is happy. That's all that matters right now. He's happy. I'm happy.
Oh? he's coming to talk to me?
-OMI!! what happened today? Itachiyama was pretty strong this year. Everything ok?
Oh... Right we lost.... I'm never going to see him ever again.
-I'm having a bad day.
-Hmmm OK LETS GO TO THE PARK TOGHTHER!!
-Why?
-Well after visiting the park toghther you suddenly started liking me!
That's true. Why didnt I like him before?
-Ok.
.
.

Atsumu pov💭
We walked out the court.
Omi was always silent, but today he looked sad.
Is it because they lost? And after the exams he'll graduate?
-Hey Omi, what are you planing on doing after graduation?
He stopped walking, a slowly rising panicking look on his face showed up.
but then he snapped back. The panicking look no longer existing.
-Probably continue Volleyball and get a job to be able to pay for a house and maintenance, not too sure tho.
-I want to continue playing Volleyball as well!! Omi one day we'll remeet ok?
-Hopefully.
We both walked in peace, no one talked. But it wasn't that kind of awkward silence, it was a comftoble one.
. . .
No ones pov💭
The two boys reached the park, it was around 8PM probably, the boys have been walking for around 30 minutes. Yes the match did indeed end around 7:30PM.
-Omi! let's buy chocolate ice cream.
-Sure.
Atsumu paid for both chocolate ice creams. Sakusa was happy that Atsumu was smiling happily.
-Let's go to that playground!
Sakusa stared at how Atsumu ran all the way to the playground, and once again he was reminded, Atsumu is really acting like a younger Sakusa, The 14 year Sakusa, the inocent Sakusa that knew nothing. But at the same time Atsumu reminded him of his mother.
Not personality wise but the looks. Both had the golden piss hair and beautiful poopy eyes. Was this guy send by his mother? This guy. This guy is a gift, and all I'll sakusa will do is distroy him.
-Why did you buy me this ice cream?
Sakusa curiously asked.
-I felt like it!! I just had the urge to buy you ice cream, I mean like right now I have the urge to hug you tightly for no reason!! but you won't like it :-|.
Sakusa felt how his blood rushed to his cheeks behind his mask.
-Oh. Ok then.
. . .
Sakusa kept his eyes only on Atsumu all the time, he couldn't take his eyes off. And he was confused. Did he like Atsumu? He won't lie. Yes indeed he likes Atsumu. He wants to protect the boy from the world, but thinking of it Sakusa can't even protect himself from What will happen.
Curently it's 10:26PM and the stars showed up.
Sakusa and Atsumu both on the floor watching the sky. Sakusa looked beside him and he saw Atsumu, his eyes glittering while starring at the night sky.
Sakusa smiled and then continued to stare at the sky.
-Hey Omi, it's getting cold, can we go home?
Sakusa wanted to scream he wanted time to stop. It was finally here. They had to say their good byes. But could Sakusa really do it?
Sakusa got up and took his jacket off.
-Wear it.
Atsumu looked a little confused but then accepted it he's cheeks painted with a faint red, at that moments sakusa actually wanted to die, the boys existence was just too much for his poor little heart.
-Thank you Omi!!
-Let's go to my house.... I have something to tell you.
Sakusa just hoped the boy won't be hurt.
.
.
.
After 10 minutes, Sakusa was starting to get closer to his house. He couldn't let Atsumu close to his house, if his father found out, he had actually a friend from another school, He'll simply kill Atsumu.
. . .
He'll actually kill atsumu, his father can and will do that, Sakusa took a deep breath trying to keep his panicking in control.
-Atsumu. Our friendship ends here.
Atsumus eyes widden and he turned his head slowly toward Sakusa.
-What do you mean Omi?
.
.
.
Sakusa pov💭
I felt damn horrible.
I didn't want to do this, I wanted to stay by his side and bring our friendship to new levels, but that wasn't posible.
-Your a damn annoying person Miya, I just stayed by your side because you kept on following me around, pathetic really.
Anyways since Itachiyama lost and I'm going to graduate I don't want to see that face of yours ever again.
He was hurt.
He really was.
I could see the tears in his eyes, it really hurt me too.
-Don't cry you f-freaking baby, you know that your just a s-spoiled, self centered b-brat.
my voice started to shake, I just couldn't hurt the boy, but I  had to, if I didn't it'll be bad, really bad.
He smiled. I'm telling him all this shit but he still smiled. It damn hurt me. Why? Why does he have to be such a star?
-Ok Omi! No worries, I was too dumb to actually belive that someone would truly like me. Go now. But just wondering you said you wanted to keep playing volleyball? So then how are you so sure we won't see each other anymore.  
He was crying. Like really crying. His voice kept cracking. Obviously he was trying to keep composure but it was a total fail, but truly who am I to talk.
-It's not about that. It's just that I don't want to see you anymore.   
I said trying to sound cold, but my voice didn't want that. My voice kept sounding really shaky but yet I hope he doesn't notice.
-If that's what you want then I'm fine with it, but atleast tell me you enjoyed your time with me while watching the stars. Just please, please tell me that.
. . .
I've seen a lot of people cry, I've heared a lot of children scream their lungs out for help. And I always felt bad. I always felt worthless. I always felt like I could do something to make their pain stop.
I've only experienced this feeling in the torture room and in the abyss. Never in my life outside that hell.
But look at me now. I'm trying my best to not cry.
All those people were and are crying because they want their loved ones safe because they want to go back home because they've just been assaulted or because they think screaming will save them. But Atsumu is crying because he doesn't want me to leave him or is it because he thinks I betrayed him? I hate this. I hate this so much.
. . .
-Atsumu Miya, For the past two years you made me happy, I enjoyed every secound of watching the stars together. There. Can I go now?
-Thank you for making me happy Omi, I'm sorry for being so clingy it's just that I haven't felt happiness in a while. Good bye take care of yourself and don't give up on whatever your planing on doing!
And then I walked away,leaving the boy behind, my jacket still on him, my eyes full of tears now
-WAIT OMI!!
Suddenly I feel something hugging my back I suddenly feel warm and safe and I suddenly realize it's Atsumu. Fuck it I promised myself not to cry.
-I'm very sorry for hugging you but that's my way of saying goodbye.
I didn't hug him back. I just waited for him to let go of me, and when he did, I stroked his head softly. He widdened his eyes but I didn't let him to talk when he opened his mouth.
-Keep my jacket.
And then I walked away leaving him alone to cry, but hey at that point I was crying too.
.
.
.
.
I reached my house. Opening the main door I saw my father standing infront of me with exam papers.
-You go and finish these papers so I can send them to your teacher, you can copy, the least I care. And I'll tell the tecahers that I supervised you while you did the exams.
He then throwed the papers at me.
-Those three rats really want to get Close to you before doing their work. Bullshit!! Anyways tommorow your going to get to meet them and then you know what's going to happen.
-Yes Fath-Master.
I said while lowering my head to him then picking up the papers, ah I don't want to think of what's about to come.

Inarizaki lost against Karasuno. Their Captain didn't participate in the match due to being sick.
