you were the setter for the girls volleyball team for fukurōdani. akaashi had noticed you multiple times during their practice, occasionally giving their manager input on what each member could improve, especially him. akaashi would continuously try and learn from the techniques and flaws you pointed out in hopes to impress you or capture your attention.

their coach had set up a game with the u20 boys volleyball team versus the u20 girls volleyball team, meaning he had to go against you, not knowing the abilities you possessed as the team's powerhouse.

akaashi watched you as your team entered the gymnasium, most girls talking with one another until bokuto realizes akaashi's staring and decides to tease him.

"AKAAAASHI, staring at little miss manager's sidekick, aren't we?!?" bokuto yells jokingly, earning a swat from akaashi.
