Hey there!
When I listened to this song back in September when I first started this project, I only thought about this song as being Yamaguchi's song for only him. But, when you have like 80% of these scenes including Tsukishima in them, it's kinda hard not to include him. Later I thought about making it the both of them since they both impact each other's lives in such a way.
Just to let you know, I spent about the past two months just working on this video alone before I decided that there was nothing more I can do and that I needed to start working on the story. I worked on the actual writing pretty much yesterday, at work last night, and this morning all in my notebook before typing pretty much the rough draft up today. I do plan on editing the story later and fixing the finer details, clarity, and mistakes I made in there, but regardless, I hope you like it! (Also, I did not proofread my story either because I need sleep and I have to work tonight, so I know my writing definitely has mistakes with this one since it was quite rushed. xD)
Hey Yams! Tsukki and I want to wish you a Happy Birthday! ♥ :D You definitely deserve this special day to be all about you!
I hope you enjoy this edit and the story, and I hope you all have a great day!

Story:
You’re never gonna make it.
Tsukishima Kei enters the gym and grabs his belongings. He glances over at the other teammates running and practicing their volleyball skills. He observes them from a distance and takes mental notes of their current strengths and weaknesses.
You’re not good enough.
Tsukishima attempts to hide those bad thoughts and goes to the Third Gym to train with a few other volleyball players. He tries so hard to block Bokuto Kotaro’s spikes, but alas, he could not stop them.
You really think you’re different? Man, you must be kidding.
Akaashi Keiji senses something must be on Tsukishima’s mind and walks over to talk to him.
Tsukishima notices, smiles, and assures Fukurodani’s setter, “I have to tell myself, ‘Think you’re gonna hit it,’” and turns away from him.
Akaashi does not believe Tsukishima for a single second but chooses to leave the matter alone for now. After all, he knows that the tallest Karasuno player does not really open up to anyone or admit his own faults easily.
But you just don’t get it.
Tsukishima knows that having these terrible thoughts is affecting him. He wants to get them out, but he is not sure how to. He makes an effort to work out with Yamaguchi and his other teammates to see if this could be his positive reinforcement.
It’s impossible. It’s not probable. You’re irresponsible.
Tsukishima gets easily exhausted and more negative notions continue to plague his mind. He cannot concentrate on what is going on around him. He feels out of breath. Sweat constantly drips out from him. He is on the verge of just giving up. What is he even doing this for?
Tsukishima looks up and recognizes someone from across the court. Oikawa Toru, one of his greatest rivals.
Oikawa points at Tsukishima, often challenging the tall player and baiting him just to get some kind of reaction. Oikawa does not have to say anything at all, but Tsukishima can tell that that Aoba Johsai’s setter is mocking him with every intent of making the blonde guy mad. It’s like he is telling him, “You can’t be a pro. Don’t waste your time no more.”
It’s one thing when Tsukishima knows he can’t do certain tasks or things on his own, but when somebody else tells him that, Tsukishima does not like it at all. He vows to beat Oikawa at his own game, and he will train even harder to reach that goal.

Kageyama Tobio realizes that Tsukishima is focused on the practice game more than usual, but just the mere thought of seeing Tsukishima there by his side somehow pisses him off. Something Tsukishima said earlier irks the Karasuno setter, “Watch your mouth.”
Tsukishima replies back with a snarky comment of his own, “I don’t give a damn if you disapprove.”
They start to fight with each other, and Ennoshita Chikara can’t help but feel embarrassed by them, knowing that someone is going to have to break the first years apart soon.

Tsukishima continues to practice even when he is not forced to. He watches everyone’s movements and the gameplay very carefully, especially Hinata Shoyo’s. He secretly wants to stop Hinata’s and Kageyama’s quick attack just even once. He will make his move because that is what he wants to do.
