No One's POV
The first few days after the two separated was well weird to say the least. With the change in time zone and the lack of conversation, it was definitely something to get used to. Semi would often be hovering over his phone wanting to text the other. Of course he could've, but it was always late at night for Shirabu. He always opted to leave the man alone and text him at a more reasonable hour. Shirabu on the other hand would be checking and rechecking his notifications in hopes of a message throughout the day.
Every once in a while they would find a sliver of time to talk. Not often though. Their conversations were cut short to a few minutes and always ended in I gotta go, talk to you later. Like I said, something to get used to. Regardless of the little time they spent talking, they continued to tease and play little jokes on each other. For example.

Of course they hadn't talked at all about the kiss. Knowing them it'd take a miracle for to bring up what happened in the airport. At least to each other that is. Both of them would stay up at night replaying the scene in their head. When they would get to the conclusion that they wouldn't be going to sleep any time soon, they'd take out their phones. And text their friends. About the damn kiss. For the 10th fucking time. That. Fucking. Day.
All their friends banging their heads against a wall when they received the message. Meanwhile everyone else was praying for their well being. There were main people subjected to this torture. Those main people lost their sanity a long, long time ago.

Needless to say everyone was tired. While Semi and Shirabu were dealing with whatever the fuck that is, Ushijima and Tendou were different. Ushijima was busy but not as busy as Semi. He still found time to call and text his boyfriend. Tendou on the other hand didn't find anything different. The distance was greater sometimes but he couldn't tell half the time. Sometimes it would take a bit to get a reply but he always got one.
Poor Oikawa though. Semi had no regards for what time he texted his neighbor like he did for Shirabu. It could be the crack of dawn but he would still spam till he got a reply. At first Oikawa was gonna yell at the other but them found this amazing thing. Its called the 'Do Not Disturb' button. Truly the best invention since McDonalds.
It does everything you want it to. Have annoying friends that spam you? Do Not Disturb. Are one of those fuckers that complains about getting too many messages? Do Not Disturb. Trying not to murder your friend for being a bitch? Do Not Disturb. Have things you have to do but don't want to? Do Not Disturb. It really is the solution to all your problems.
Overall, things were going fairly well for Salty and Saltier. Sure they both wished they could talk more but they knew it wasn't forever. Once the tour was over and everyone was settled, they'd probably talk about the kiss.
Oh yes the forbid fruit of conversation topics. The one thing they absolutely refused to talk about. Would this decision probably cost them a couple extra chapters, yes. Would they bring it up to save time, of course not. Their awful decision making would probably make a few dozen people suffer in agony as they wait for the two to get together.
They simply didn't care though. With each passing day they started to forget ever so slightly about that day. At least for the first five seconds of the morning. Then it would all hit them like a train going at full speed. Which never failed to result in a light blush to cover over their cheeks.
The amount of teasing from their friends that they had received was astonishing. For them at least, since they were never on the receiving end of teasing. And oh how much people patiently waited for this chance. Every opportunity their friends were presented was taken.
Never missing a beat to point out the blush when the other's name was brought up. Or the smile they had when talking about said other. They did have to admit though. They were happy that their friends found someone to smile about like that. As much as they found the constant night messages about the kiss annoying, they also found it cute. Not that they would ever in their life admit it though.
