Destination: Permanent Vacation

4: Oikawa - Saturday

"Hi, my name is Courtney, I'm looking for my boyfriend." I hear from the front door. I stand up to go and eavesdrop on why the fuck that puta is here.

"Sorry, who is that specifically?" Suga asks, returning the fake smile. Absolute legend.

"Ugh," She scoffs and twirls her hair around her finger. "Does my boyfriend not talk about me? Do you talk with your housemates about your girlfriend?"

"Koushi?" Daichi must've snuck past me at some point because he wraps his arms around Suga's waist from behind. "What's taking so long?"

"This girl is looking for her boyfriend," Suga answers, taking in bitch-face's shocked facial expression.

"Hey, Kawa, what's happening?" Iwaizumi asks me, peering over my shoulder. "Oh,"

"His name is Hajime," She says indignantly.

"What's the hold up?" Iwa walks past me, pretending like he didn't know what was happening.

"Babe!" Courtney rushes into the house and throws herself at Iwa. "I said I'd come," She says, before crashing to the floor as he shoves her off harshly.

"And I said that if you did, we'd be officially over." He fires. Ooh tea.

"Hi, Courtney," I say, walking into the foyer. Courtney glares at me and brings herself back to her feet, struggling in her puta heels. "What's the puta doing here?"

"I'm here to stay with my boyfriend for a while," She says.

"I'm dumping her," Iwa declares with a small smile toward me.

Omg does he maybe...

"You're gay, aren't you?" Courtney demands. Iwa spins to look at her, looking shocked.

"What?"

"You're gay. For your precious 'Tooru'. Aren't you?"

I wish.

"Courtney, I-" Iwa starts to protest.

"Oh shut up. My family helped you get into an American university and you throw it back in my face by dumping me for another man," She scoffs.

"Courtney, I dumped you because you're fucking toxic. You really are the epitome of gaslight gatekeep girlboss," Iwa fires back. I hear giggling and a squeaky violin. Oh no they didn't. Sure enough, standing in the doorway to the dining room are most of our housemates, Toxic by Britney Spears now playing from Mattsun's phone.

"Seriously, Britney Spears? Is there a single straight person in this house?" Courtney asks, looking at me and my housemates. We all shrug 'not me'. "See, Hajime? You're not gay, you just think you are because you're surrounded by gay people,"

Suga starts coughing then says "Gaslighting,", covering it up with more coughing. Everyone bursts out laughing.

"The only way to really know is if I kiss another man," Iwaizumi says. "Kusokawa,"

"Don't be lazy!" I pout, trying to distract from how excited and nervous I am right now, "Kuso-oikawa,"

"Shittykawa, can I kiss you to prove to Courtney here that I do like men?" Iwaizumi asks. Wow. He-He wants to kiss me? But...he's been broken up like how many minutes? Is this right? But, he's my Iwa-chan. We can talk about this more later, right now, I'm getting asked by Iwa to kiss him.

"Yes,"

Iwaizumi takes two large steps towards me kisses me. I can hear a few loud whoops but I'm more focused on the fact that I'm finally kissing Iwa-chan. I reach my hands up into his spiky hair and I feel his arms around my waist. We're forced to pull apart when we both run out of breath and Iwa smirks before kissing my cheek softly. He turns his attention back to Courtney.

"I'm definitely gay," He confirms. "Now get out of my house, puta."

I don't know what to focus on.

I just got kissed by Iwa-chan.
The parent friends are dating.
Iwa-chan dumped Courtney.
Iwa-chan called Courtney a puta.

Does... Does Iwa like me back then? Like... like like me? Like... is he in love with me? Are we going to start dating? What's going to-

"Shit, I have a meeting in like 10 minutes!" Kuroo says, rushing off. His loud disruption breaks the silence that had fallen and everyone starts laughing.

Suga claps his hands and takes charge, as parent friends do.

"Everyone clear your plates, check the rota for washing up. I really hope that Kuroo's the only one with a Saturday morning conference." Everyone rushes back into the kitchen and I look up at Iwa.

"Iwa-chan, I-" I start but he holds a finger to my lips.

"Stop. I don't..." He sighs and looks down before looking me in the eye. "I don't want to talk about this right now. I know you deserve to get to talk about this but I'm not doing it right now." He's so frustrating! After what just happened, we need to talk about it! "And you," He glares at the puta. "Get out." She jumps and rushes out, her phone already dialling.

"Iwa-" I try to talk but I stop at the look he gives me.

"You want to talk. You want answers. I can't give you answers because I don't have answers," He reaches out and holds my hands. "Give me some time to find the answers and figure out what's going on. Then we can talk as much as you like. But just... not right now. Okay?"

I nod, too scared that the words won't come out if I try to speak.

"Come on, I'll walk you upstairs, it's your bedtime."

"I-Iwa-Chan you make me sound like a little kid!" I whine.

"No, you make you sound like a little kid when you whine like that," He teases.

"Mean," I pout.

"Point proven,"

We walk upstairs to our room and I quickly change into my pyjamas and climb into bed. The lights click off and I feel a weight on the bed next to me.

"Hm?" I look to my side and see Iwa holding his arm up.

"Come on," He says with a barely visible smile. "This always makes you feel better," I roll my eyes and give in, curling into his side and resting my head on his lap. "Watch this," He reaches towards the wall and I hear click as lights start twinkling in the fabric above the bed. "They look like stars,"

"It's beautiful," I murmur, "I love it, thank you,"

"Yeah, I did it for you. I know how bad your nightmares get so I thought, why not make the bed more suited to your needs so you don't have struggle as much. Also, we have a lock on our bedroom door and our ensuite door so you don't have to worry about people coming in. See, I may be a dickhead but at least I'm a considerate dickhead," Iwa says. I laugh a little bit before settling back down.

"Can you stay for a bit longer?" I ask, reaching out and linking our fingers. "Just until I'm asleep,"

"Of course,"

We don't really say much after that until I'm mostly asleep. I think Iwa's assumed that I am asleep because he carefully slides out from under me and replaces his lap with a pillow. I feel something light and soft on my forehead, followed by the voice I love so much.

"Sweet dreams, Tooru,"

I hear the door click as my brain also clicks.

Did Iwa-chan just kiss me goodnight?
