the air was full of early morning frost as iwaizumi waited for his friend to arrive. he had been waiting there for a while and the cold was beginning to get to him.

oikawa ran over to the school gym, spotting iwaizumi stood outside waiting for the doors to be opened. the latter was wearing a thick grey coat with a matching gray scarf around his neck. he appeared to be shivering as he glared harshly at the ground.

"iwa-chan!! hey!"

"what took you so long dumbass, i've been waiting out here in the freezing cold." spoke iwa, sending a glare to the back of oikawa's head as he unlocked the gym doors.

"wow not even a hello?? you're so grumpy iwa-chan!!"

"don't call me that, shitty-kawa."

the doors to the gym swung open as the two boys rushed in, quickly shutting the doors again to try and conserve any heat they could. luckily, playing volleyball should help them warm up a little.

"c'mon, let's hurry and get the equipment out so we can start playing!" exclamed oikawa as he began to jog over to the storage room.

iwaizumi just sighed at his excitement, before wandering up behind oikawa. inside the storage room was piles and piles of sport gear, iwa felt slight excitement bubble inside him at the thought of being able to use all this posh equipment.

oikawa walked into the storage room, grabbing one side of the net and directing iwaizumi to get the other. they both carefully set up the net, then pulled out the trolly filled with volleyballs.

"set the ball to me 'kawa." spoke iwaizumi as he got into position.

oikawa smirked slightly at the nickname, "okay!! i hope you can hit it, i'll have you know my sets are well known for being-"

"just get on with it idiot, i'm pretty sure i'll be able to hit it."

the setter rolled his eyes as he nodded his head to signal that iwaizumi could start.

iwaizumi began to run towards the net, launching himself off the ground just as the ball left oikawa's hands. he smirked as his hand slammed into the ball, watching as it flew over the net and landed on the other side of the court.

a perfect spike.

he gracefully landed back on the ground, a smile resting on his face. it felt so good to be able to hit a spike from a high level setter.

"woa!! that was so cool iwa-chan! your spikes are sooo powerful," exclaimed oikawa. he was practically bouncing from excitement.

"thanks, your set was pretty good too i guess."

"ah, i know my sets are amazing!! but seriously, you should consider joining the team. we'd probably make it to nationals with you!!" oikawa said as he turned away to grab another ball.

"...nationals? as in, japan nationals in tokyo?"

oikawa chuckled, noticing he had gotten iwaizumi's attention with that statement. "well yea dummy, what other nationals would it be!"

iwa grumbled to himself as he got in position to do another spike. although, he couldn't stop thinking about oikawa's offer.

the pair continued spiking non-stop the entire morning. it was only when they heard the 5 minute bell ring that they realised the time.

"shit, now we only have five minutes to pack away. i'm blaming this on you loser-kawa." spoke iwaizumi as he ran to pick up all the balls he had spiked over the past 2 hours.

"stop with the mean nicknames!! we've only known each other for a week!" spoke oikawa with a pout as he tidied away the net.

iwaizumi had to admit oikawa was quite cute when he was angry. he had to cover up his face to make sure the setter couldn't see the blush that was creeping across his face.

"darn you oikawa....why are you so pretty.." murmured iwa to himself.

"oh? so you do think i'm pretty?"

iwaizumi flinched slightly at the voice. he turned around to see oikawa inches away from his face, one eyebrow quirked up.

"shut up, prick." said iwa, lightly pushing oikawa away from him, "c'mon, we're gonna be late."

oikawa's eyes widened as he ran over to grab his school bag. iwa stood at the gym doors chuckling lightly at his friend.

"oikawa tooru, you will be the death of me."
