CAN'T TAKE MY EYES OFF OF YOU || Iwaizume h.

ch. 7

(Although I know this is in the setting of Japan, I don't know much of their culture. Also I wasn't sure what to have for their meals.)

" He listened to her carefully, and he could only say, 'I truly didn't mean to call you chubby, but it was the only cute way I could call you to say you weren't my type.' He then began to take her both of her hands in his, 'I was wrong, you are beautiful, and I want to repay you with a date!' He said it as if he were this cute innocent boy. From the looks of it, he wasn't going to give up about this.

'Whatever, I'll go.' "

Back inside

"Y/n! I love these buddies of yours!... Except this one." Amethyst said happily, until she pointed at Iwaizumi. They stared at each other for a bit. Oikawa had his hand rest on Y/n's shoulder. "Hey.. wait a minute.. What is he doing with his hand on your shoulder?" she said with a peek of suspicion, squinting at the two. Y/n herself hadn't even realized the hand on her shoulder, she then shoved it off.

"That's a good question." They had already gotten appetizers, and Amethyst had eaten most of them. "Sorry," she giggles with a bit of food in her mouth. She didn't care if she embarrassed herself, that is unless she was impressing someone. Y/n could only laugh, her friend knew how to make her smile.

"Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, and what can I get you to eat. Oh, and what will you two be having for your drinks?" The waiter said, noticing the two new people sitting at the table. "Can I get (fav food from restaurant) and (drink)?" Y/n asks politely. She always made sure not to be rude towards anyone, unless they were rude first. "Yes, and you sir?" He turns to Oikawa, who was inspecting the menu. "I'll have spaghetti and meatballs with some tea." The others ordered and had waited for their food to come.

Hanamaki and Matsukawa still couldn't stop staring at Oikawa, Iwaizumi, Amethyst, and Y/n. "So, Y/n.. Can we ask you something?" She looked up from her conversation with Amethyst. She hummed in response. "What happened between you four?" They said unanimously. "I mean, it was pretty tense back there," Matsukawa continued. With the brought up question, the table went completely silent.

Y/n couldn't look at anyone, looking from the side, to the other side, then looking down. "Let's just say some asshole did an asshole move to a beautiful person." Everyone looked at Amethyst as she took a sip from her drink. "What?" Amethyst was always defending Y/n, she couldn't help it.

The food had come and they all began to eat. The only ones to talk were the boys, the girls were only background people. "I can't wait for the first years that are trying out get on the volleyball team!" Oikawa looked cheerful. Iwaizumi agreed, they would finally get to see their first years from middle school. "Y/n, do you want to come to tryouts? It'll be fun!" Oikawa turned to Y/n. Amethyst could only stare at her, waiting for her answer. He can't be serious right? She won't say yes, will she?

Y/n could feel her best friend's eye burning in the side of her head. "Yeah, I'll go if I can," she finally said. "What?" Her friend was in disbelief. Y/n gave a reassuring look, making her friend relax, however still tense. "I'll tell you what happened later," she whispered. Hanamaki smiled at the two, "You can come too Amethyst if you're that jealous."

It was silent, he then had realized what he said. "Oh, sorry. I forgot," he scratched the back of his head. The other three looked at him in confusion. Y/n really didn't want to talk about her best friend leaving. "Alright, lets finish our food and get out of here, okay?" She attempts to change the topic.

Once they had finished their food and started to pay, the waiter had approached Y/n, still sitting with the others. "Hey miss, I didn't get your name." Y/n than turned to him. "It's Y/n, but why would you need my name?" She asked curiously.

What's going on? Iwaizumi turns to them, listening in on their conversation. "Well, I was hoping to get your number, you're quite the cutie. Oh, and my name is Jackson." Iwaizumi laughed, grabbing the waiter's attention. They both began to judge each other. The rest of the table were still talking, not noticing the flirtatious man.

"Is there a problem with asking her number sir?" The waiter, Jackson, said, still trying to have some respect. What is he doing? Y/n began to think. "I don't think she's interested in anyone, seeing that she's not wanting to do anything with that brunette over there," he said, pointing at Oikawa. Y/n, being the topic of the conversation, had decided to speak up. "Jackson was it? I would prefer to not give you my number, as you are just a random stranger. Thank you for serving our table." With that she gets up and walks away, waiting in the lobby for the others.

Everyone had began to stare as she waited in the lobby. "Whatever."

The group had walked out of the restaurant, Amethyst rushing to get to her car. "Now, tell me what happened! You can't just be mad at him then all of a sudden go to his tryouts.." She couldn't wait for Y/n to spill every little detail of the conversation.

Y/n only looked at the side, embarrassed to admit to this crazy situation.

"So, he brought me outside to say sorry. He then all of a sudden changes his mind to say that I was pretty and beautiful now." She immediately regretted saying that part of the story. "What?" Amethyst gritted her teeth. "Just wait, but I was also like that! I just couldn't believe him... Then he said that he would repay me by taking me.. out on a date." Saying it out loud made her realize her decision was insane.

"You said no.. Right?" Her best friend inspected. Y/n had stayed silent. "Y/n! You can't be going on anything with that jerk!" She began to yell, lecturing her for her poor decision. "It's only one date right? It'll be over with sooner than you know it! I promise there will be nothing else." Y/n had began to persuade her friend into trusting her. "Alright."

By the time they were out of the restaurant, it was 8:00. The car ride to the airport was a bit far, about 45 minutes away, and it was entirely silent. Amethyst couldn't bring herself to say anything, especially after learning her best friend would be going out with a dick head. "You know I love you Y/n, right?" Y/n hummed silently. "I only protect you because I don't want you to be hurt by anyone. You going on this date.. it scares me. It scares me from the thought that you'll be heart broken again. Even if it does scare me, I trust you to make the right decision." She didn't take her eyes off the road.

Y/n started to feel guilty, knowing that her decision scared her best friend.

In elementary school, Y/n got picked on for being "out of place". She wasn't able to speak up for herself, that was until her best friend came into her life. Amethyst was like her shield, protecting her from anything. She was always so cheery and energetic, she also contained a lot of sarcasm for a small kid. Y/n was more of a shy girl, although her best friend always got her to become outgoing and bold. The two were perfect for each other. They of course had fights, but they always made up, often whining and hugging each other in the end.

"I won't do anything stupid Amie," Y/n smiled at her. Although Amethyst was focused on the road, she smiled too. "I know you won't."
