The blue afternoon sky changed into splatters of pinks, purples and oranges giving it a dreamy look. A few crows flew across the sky making their obnoxious caws.
Y/N walking along with Oikawa and Takeru after the volleyball coaching. It was a silent and comfortable walk. Oikawa watched as she skipped and kicked rocks on the way with Takeru joining in the fun. She would giggle time to time while talking to his nephew. It made him feel fuzzy and warm which he liked. Subconsciously, an adorning smile spread on his face.
"Damn......... It must be lucky to be Y/N-chan," He spoke breaking the silence.
"Why?" She stopped in tracks when she heard his voice and looked up at him, waiting for him to continue.
"Because if you want to see a cutie, you just have to look into a mirror." He winked at her. Her face lit up in fifty shades of red and she turned away from him. Her heartbeat increased at his teasing.
"S-Stop Oikawa-san!"
He chuckled at her blushing face. Although to others, it might look like he was just being his usual flirty self. However, when it comes to her, his compliments were always genuine.
A thought always stayed at the back of his mind. She might not be his soulmate. But still he couldn't stop himself from feeling the warm emotions which she makes him feel.
Oikawa felt a stare at himself and glanced at his nephew who was staring at him with a bored expression. He arched an eyebrow waiting for him to speak.
"Tooru you are so lame."
An irk mark appeared on Oikawa's head. Y/N couldn't help but burst into laughing.
"You brat!"
Takeru laughed and hid behind her clutching her waist while she giggled. Oikawa reached out to catch only for the little boy to scoot father away, still clutching her.
"Y/N-san! Tooru is a bully!"
"Oikawa-san, that's wrong. I never thought you'd be like this." She added in the teasing. An upset pout formed on the brunette's face. Oikawa stopped catching Takeru causing him to let go of her and move a step away from her. And Oikawa immediately reached out from either side of her to catch him again.
This caused Y/N to stiffen at his closeness which he was not aware of. She awkwardly stood there with her hands in front of her. Takeru stepped back and Oikawa's hands caught nothing. Y/N backed away a bit and tripped over Takeru's foot, taking the brunette along with her and hit the wall.
Her eyes were shut closed as her back hit the wall behind her. A familiar scent of milk bread evaded her senses and something soft tickled her right ear. She slowly opened her eyes only for them to widen when she saw Oikawa insanely close to her.
Oikawa slowly backed away only to stop as his chocolate brown eyes locked gazes with her deep blue ones. He couldn't help but get mesmerized by their beauty once again. Butterflies erupted in their stomach.
"I-I am sorry." He apologized and stood away at a few steps distance. She nodded with embarrassment. Blood rushing to her face resembling a tomato. Oikawa walked ahead leaving her and Takeru behind. The tips of his ears painted red. She could still feel her racing heart doing flips in her chest.
"Tooru let's have ice cream."
Takeru saved them from the awkwardness. Oikawa looked up at Y/N only to see her eyes sparkling. He chuckled before walking upto the ice cream van near the park with the other two following behind.
"Which one Y/N-chan?"
"Choose the most expensive one, Y/N-san!!"
"Will you shut up, Takeru!"
Y/N chuckled at their banter before scanning the available ice cream flavors. While the Uncle and Nephew duo was busy arguing in the background, she placed the order for herself.
"So... Y/N-chan, which one do you want?" Oikawa walked up to her, looking at the board. Y/N chuckled before bringing her ice cream cone near his face.
"I got it."
"Eh? I was going to treat you.."
"Well, I treated myself!" She replied while licking the cold beverage. Oikawa pouted and brought out his wallet to pay for his and Takeru's share.
"Tooru, this one... No... This... Wait... This... On second thought.. Th-"
"Just choose one already!"
"I can't! All of them look tasty!"
While both of then were busy in deciding the flavor, Y/N spotted a bench in the park. She sauntered over to it while humming a tune and licking his ice cream. She looked up to see Oikawa and Takeru returning with the latter smiling widely. She assumed that he got what he wanted while Oikawa's face screamed irritation.
"Oikawa-san! Takeru-kun! Here!" She waved her hand excitedly and they jogged up to her. She watched as little children were laughing and playing happily around the park. It reminded her of her childhood when she would come to the park with her grandfather and play volleyball.
Oikawa noticed her nostalgic smile. He nudged her breaking her train of thoughts.
"What happened? You are so quiet right now."
"Nothing just a trip down memory lane." She answered before licking her lips to clean the smudge of chocolate. She stopped when he chuckled at her.
"Is there something on my face?" She asked with her hands checking any possible spot on her cheeks. Her eyes closed automatically when he leaned towards her. She felt a swift touch on the tip of her nose. She peeked her eye open to watch as he licked his finger.
"You had ice cream there."
Her face heated up and she hung her head down, silently finishing her ice cream. It was silent except the sound of giggles and hearty laughter of children. Oikawa watched as Takeru tried to do some stunts on the monkey bars.
"Y/N-chan... What kind of soulmate do you want?"
She hummed looking at the sky, trying to come up with an answer.
"As cliché as it sounds, I just want someone who would like me for who I am and a romantic person. Pretty or not, doesn't matters."
"It sounds like me!"
"Eh.. But it sounds like Iwaizumi-san." She spoke out feigning innocence.
He fake gasped and acted as if he was hurt by her answer. This made her burst out into laughing. He soon followed her chuckling.
"What about you?" Now, she was curious for his preference since he was always flirty with others. Oikawa faked a thinking gesture and hummed aloud.
"Someone like you!"
"But I was the only piece." She answered with genuine innocence making him smirk.
"That's what I mean."
She blushed for the third time that day and started hitting his arm fiercely making him yelp.
"Stop your flirting!"
"I can't help it!"
"I feel bad for you soulmate! Poor them! Handling your dumbass!"
"So mean Y/N-chan!"
"So lame Tooru!"
"Shut up!!!!!"
