You raced back home,
hoping to beat your best friend there.
Okazaki Masa was fast, being Captain of the middle school basketball team. But, you were a genius in cheating.

"No fair! You got a head start!"
he whines.

The two of you reach your guy's house, only living across the street from each other.
You both held your graduation diplomas in hand, finally leaving xxxxx.
Next destination: Karasuno High.

"Yahoo, Y/N."
the familiar voice of your neighbor, walks up.
"Did you apply for Karasuno High?"

"Sugawara-kun.
Of course we enrolled.
It's an easy school to get into. Even a bone head like you could probably get in."
Masa answers for the both of you.

"Exactly.
Why do you, of all people, even care?"
you ask him.
You crossed your arms, standing aside, already
annoyed by him just being there.

"That's because..."
Sugawara opens his bag and takes out a paper.
"I enrolled there too."

He kindly smiles at you two,
making sure he's rubbing in how he'll be in the same school as you for another three years.
You stomp your foot and rush home,
unable to accept the fact he's
also going there.

"Sweetie?
Home already? Is Masa with you?"
your dad calls through the house.
He walks into your room, watching you attempt to apply to other schools.
"TsuTsu, what are you doing?"

"Not going to Karasuno, that's for sure."
you tell him.
As you scroll through some Miyagi Precture Schools
you reach over and smack on a Pocky stick.
"How about Aobo Johsai? Or Shiratorizawa?"

Your dad grabs the mouse of your hand and
kneels down.
"Why on Earth, would you switch high schools
so suddenly?"

You frown and point at your window.
He turns his head and looks through it, from where he is, the view of Sugawara was seen.
Suga was spinning around in his chair,
casually holding the applications
for Karasuno.

"Well, you're gonna have to face him
at some point."
your dad tells you.

You scream and crash on your bed
throwing a mini tantrum.
"I...Don't....WANNA!"

Your dad walks over and kisses the top of your head.

"Okay you toddler,
go shower and get ready. We have dinner with Masa and his family."

{^.^}

"I-It's just awful!"  
you shout.

You and your best friend, Masa, sat on your lawn.
Wanting to escape all the grownup talk,
outside was the best option.

"Plan on signing up for any clubs?"
Masa asks you
and takes a sip of his soda in hand.

"Nah. If I do, I would have to go through with it
all through high school. No thanks.
How about you? Basketball still, right?"

"Well of course.
I'm telling you TsuTsu, by our third year,
I'll be the Captain. I'm sure of it."
he says.

"Cheers."
you raise your soda can up and
the two of you clink them together.

"Bathroom."
he announces and jogs across the street
to his house.

"Mind if I join?"
Sugawara appears from his lawn and
steps over the bushes. Just as Masa was out of sight, he just happens to walk over.

"Actually, I do. Stay back, Koushi."
you tell him.
Even included your hand up, signaling for
him to stay back. Of course, none of it stopped him
from skipping over and taking a seat.

"Ah, so middle school is over. Huh."
he casually took your soda,
drinking it as if it were his.

"Yeah it is."
you agree with him, not in the mood
to pick a fight.

"It was fun though. Messing around and beating you in all our exam scores. Simpleton Y/N, you are."
he tells you.

"Yeah, I get it.
You don't gotta keep rubbing it in my face."
you say.

"Well of course I do.
I need to say as much information as possible.
Or else, it might be a little confusing."
he informs you,
taking another sip out of the soda.
"Ugh, I hate this flavor."

"W-W-Wait.
Hold on a second. What do you mean
"as much information as possible"?
You're making no sense, Koushi."

"That's because, Y/N.
This is only the start of our beautiful story."

"Ugh, you disgust me. I'm going back inside."
you state and walk to Masa's house.

You glance back and Suga, as he slowly walked back towards his house.
The smallest amount of guilt landed on you,
but then remembered who he is.

"Tch, the only beautiful part of our story,
is that there's an ending."
