— 3:45 pm // y/n POV —
Cmon we just need a final push and the match is over and done with

We were currently in our final set against Brazil and we were a few points ahead of them, only 1 away from winning the match

Our setter, himari called out to me from across the court   " THIS ONE IS YOURS Y/N"

And before I even knew it the ball was set my way and I was running toward the far right hand corner of the court

Gathering all the strength in my legs I jumped as high and powerful as I could to be able to reach the ball and then pushed my arm toward, as if I were going to hit the ball in a straight line

Obviously I wasn't

At the last second I angled my body more diagonally and hit the ball sharply across the net with all of the power I had in my wrist

Two things could be heard in the moments after these

The sound of me landing back on the court

And the sound of the ball bouncing onto the Court

Everyone looked at the referee just to double check but we all knew what the outcome would be

The referee shot his hand down along with the flag to the court, signalling that the ball was in

That's it we had won
We were onto the semi finals

The final buzzer and whistle went at the same time and all you could hear were cheers from both the crowd and my amazing team

All the players ran in from the sidelines as we all made a huge circle on our half of the court

Many tears of happiness could be seen in my teammates we had made it to the next round, we could still play more volleyball together

After a quick talk with the captain we all lined up opposite the other team who also had tears in their eyes

But their tears were of sadness

Oh well you win some you loose some

And they lost

But I can't lie

They are a really strong team, if they're able to train more they will be fun to play at the next international tournament 

Once we were done thanking to opposing team and all the match officials we lined up in front of the team Japan seating area

We all bowed deeply "THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR CONSTANT SUPPORT!!!"

Cheers and words of encouragement could be heard all around the stadium as we lifted our heads and waved towards our fans who were there for us every step of the way

We made our way to the team bench to grab our stuff as a match was going to be played here in the next half hour, and as we went to collect our stuff my mind couldn't help but wander to the messages suna had sent me last night, he didn't sound like himself and his texting was a bit awkward almost as if he were lying or hiding something, and he didn't even answer my original question which made him seem even more sketchy, but I was happy right now so I shook it out of my head and focused on the present

I turned to our captain misaki "hey mi, who's playing on this court next ??"

She turned around and smiled at me "the Japan men's team vs British men's team, after our meeting in the locker room we're going to head into the stands and support the team"

She said that last part a bit louder so that the whole team could hear the plans for later on

The rest of the team just hummed in agreement
