"Arum!" He passes the ball towards me. I nodded in response and kicked the ball immediately to a far away distance. Tohru bounces it with his body and passes it to Kaeru once more, Kaeru filled with determination to make up from earlier successfully scores a goal when our second goalkeeper Sushi Maru on the other side fails to react quickly. The whole team and I grouped up soon after the last point. Practice is over again. I went over to Kaeru and the rest.

"Good job Kaeru," I complimented. I ruffled and mess with his hair.

"Thanks for always looking out for me," Kaeru smiled brightly. This guy really admires me a lot as a captain, it's kind of adorable.

"Kuronoya, what was that? You landed on your face," I laugh.

"You just love to roll in the dirt don't you?" Tohru says sharply. His usual sarcastic remarks.

"Easy on the newbies Kuronoya," I told.

"Hey! I fell on purpose! I know how awesome I am," Kuronoya protested.

"More like Kuro-knows-not how to tie his shoe," Tsugino butts into the conversation as he leans towards his back. We all laughed, except for Tohru, that guy hardly laughs at anything.

"Has anyone seen the coach lately?" Sushi Maru asked. We call him that because that's his actual name, and it's ironic because his family runs a sushi business.

"No clue," I shrugged. "Coach Heifetz has been gone busy and he hasn't contacted me lately," I continued.

"We can't exactly win our practice match against Daiji without a coach. Let alone when we'll finally face against Hale in the interschool sports competition," Sushi Maru says.

"Relax dudes. Of course, we'll win, I'll make sure of it! Remember what the coach always says! 'The foundation of strength comes from teamwork'!"

"Ugh, you're starting to sound like the coach himself," Tohru groans.

"You're sharp as always Tohru, but let's all be serious. We have to keep working together!"

"Arum is right. I mean let's admit, we all hate losing," Sho suddenly speaks. It was unusual because he is usually the quiet one among us. But the thought was there, and I'm kind of proud. Everyone nods and forms as a circle.

"Teamwork?" I reach out a hand.

"Teamwork!" They followed.

Later on, after all that hard practice we hit the lockers. I just remembered that Raihen and Hide went home together, I'm relieved that Hide doesn't need to go home alone anymore. Raihen really got attached to us already.

"Hey guys, you won't believe what just happened today," I say to my fellow teammates right beside me.

"What did? " Kuronoya asked.

"Hide actually punched someone,"

"He did what?" Tohru was seemingly surprised.

"I know!" My teammates actually know my best friend since I talk about him a lot and Hide got quite acquainted with them as well.

"So who did he punch?" Tohru asked.

"We have this new guy in class, his name is Raihen and he hangs with us now. I disappeared for five minutes and the next thing I knew he was in the infirmary, I don't really know what happened but he seems to take a really good liking to Hide,"

"If you're not careful he might steal your best friend," Tohru warns.

"What? No one can steal my best friend," I replied frankly.
