You were currently at Tsukishimas volleyball tournament, just in tokyo at the local arena. he had a big tournament, playing against teams from all over the province to play here. it was pretty big. You had come along to watch him, since you two had started dating.

You both played volleyball, but he played D1, and you played D2.. it was fine for him, you were still perfect in every other way possible. you had been trying to get on the D1 team, but no matter how hard you tried, it never worked. but Tsukishima kept telling you to keep pushing.

After his first game against Canada west, which he won 25-24, he immediately went up to you and hugged you. he was sweaty and tired from trying to hard.
