It had been a long drive for the team, but for Hinata and Kageyama it was nothing more than a short nap.

Hinata woke first, rubbing his eyes, disgruntled. His vision focused and stopped the hazy blur of the first few moments of consciousness, noticing a small and soft blanket wrapped around him. It was warm, welcoming and felt way too comfortable. Shouyou almost fell right back asleep, his body enveloped in such a nice feeling he wanted to sink further into.

His eyes followed it up to a sleeping Kageyama, who's head was resting on top of his. Tobio's right arm was loosely held around Hinata, who stayed still in order to keep Kageyama asleep. Hinata smiled and closed his eyes in some sort of satisfaction. Normally he would think about moving away, sitting apart from Kageyama to have his own space again. There used to be such a fine line between them, when they sat on the coach it was as though they had to edge away from eachother as much as possible.

But the duo were quick to discover how much more comfortable it was when you weren't trying to slink away from your volleyball-rival-friend during a two hour drive. And eventually it got to the point where sleeping against eachother was a casual occurrence, and sitting next to eachother was absolutely mandatory.

But it had never felt like this before- for some reason, today felt much, much different. Hinata assumed it must be the blanket, or maybe the fact that Kageyama had his arm draped around him lightly. It wasn't that he felt uncomfortable, it was quite the opposite if he were being totally honest. After all, they were pretty close to eachother. So much so that Hinata could faintly feel his breath across his pink cheeks. But he was too cozy, too relaxed to even be bothered to move.

The middle-blocker felt as the vehicle travelled around corners, lumps and bumps in the road. He could hear it's quiet rumble and the wheels push through the gravel and dirt that scattered occasionally along the road.

He sighed in disappointment as the car slowed to a halt, with everyone quieting down to listen to their captain. Were they already here? Surely they hadn't been in the coach for that long? It had only seemed like ten minutes ago the freak duo were fighting for their beloved window seat. It had almost resulted in a wrestling match, but Tanaka's stern glare and nod towards a practically terrified Yachi had shut them down within seconds.

Daichi stood up, as far as Hinata could tell with closed eyes. He had this sort of strong way of moving, and every step was a strong one on it's own. They were easily recognisable, and Shouyou confirmed his assumption was right when the male began to speak. 

"We've now arrived at Nekoma! We'll be sleeping overnight in the same rooms as our last practice week trip. And don't stay up too late; we're leaving early tomorrow!" Daichi concluded, as Hinata could hear several simultaneous unbuckling of seatbelts and people reaching for their overnight bags.

The middle-blocker opened his eyes fully. Sitting up, he turned to his right and gently shook Kageyama's chest, calling his name for him to wake up. It took several long and tiring tries before Tobio actually responded, and even after that he dozed right back off to sleep.

"Kageyama.. Kageyama!" Eventually, the other's eyes fluttered open, staring right back at Hinata's wide and hazel eyes. He looked confused for a second, and Shouyou could tell he was recollecting his thoughts before the tension in his expression relaxed, and the plan of their day had set in.

Kageyama's eyes then dragged down, realising his arm was around Hinata and retracting it quickly with the smallest blush and the world's quietest apology ever heard. Hinata had gotten him to repeat it so many times until Kageyama's rought grasp was on his head, squeezing as he yelled, "I SAID SORRY, YOU DUMBASS,"
