PROLOGUE

You squeezed the leather strap of your schoolbag between your fingers in an attempt to comfort yourself, as you stared at the crumpled piece of paper in your hand.
Beads of sweat clung to your forehead, and a clear, stray drop splashed onto the crinkled page as you hastily wiped at your face with the back of your sleeve.

It had been your very first day at your new high school and much to your dismay you had already been placed in a club, - the volleyball club to be exact. The very thougiht drained the remaining colour from your face, your stomach doing backflips so high you could swear it would jump out of your mouth any minute.
The shouts and screams from the players and the squeaks of their shoes against the polished floor from inside the gym only added file to the fire

Swallowing the lump that had risen in your throat, and sucking in a deep breath you gave the door a push. Opening it wide, your eyes sparkled at the sight before you, - the gym was huge!

'No, this was not the reason why you came here!'

Mentally scolding yourself from gawking at the new environment, you shook your head and mustering up what little courage was left in you, tried to raise your voice as high as possible so you would be heard.

"U-um is t-this the volleyba---------"

BAM!!!

You were interrupted mid sentence, a muffled squeak escaping your lips as something smacked into your face, succeeding in knocking you over onto your back.
A dull burning sensation surged through your nose, quickly spreading throughout your entire face. Your head began to throb, and you let out a pained hiss, impulsively raising your hand to wipe at your aching nose. You muttered a few curses as drops of crimson dripped onto your hand, painting your fingers red as you began fretting over whether you'd got it on your clothes or not.

This is why you hated sports, and everything related with it. Athletes always seemed to irk you, - loud, rude, obnoxious, mean the list could go on.

Suddenly, a pair of strong hands gripped your arms almost making you jump, as they pulled you up onto your feet.

Looking up, your eyes widened at the sight of a pair of soft chocolate-brown orbs gazing back.
