Kei Tsukishima

Tsukishima has been your best friend since elementary school, along with Yamaguchi. For quite some time now, Tsukishima has had feelings for you; you don't know this because he doesn't show it much. You also feel something for him, but you've never told him, so he doesn't know. Lately, Tsukishima has been avoiding you at school, during outings, and so on... One day, Yamaguchi invited you to a sleepover at his house along with Tsukishima. It was a hot day, so you all decided to go into the pool. It was nighttime and the three of you were in the pool; Yamaguchi decided to go to the bathroom, so you took the opportunity to approach Tsukishima and hugged him gently. He was surprised, yet he blushed slightly and hugged you back, holding you by the waist. After a few seconds of silence while hugging, you asked him why he had been avoiding you. He looked away and exclaimed in a low voice
"I've been busy practicing lately..."
