~3rd POV~

"Um, okay. Are you a virgin?" The question makes his eyes widen and body go rigid, something Makki is very aware of. Iwaizumi sighs and then downs his drink as everyone watches in confusion and anticipation.

When Mattsun doesn't move or say anything for a couple seconds, Makki turns to look at him confused and curious since he knew the answer to this...right?

Mattsun gulps when their eyes meet and Makki suddenly feels anxious. Doesn't feel as sure of his answer anymore. He would have told him though. Right?

"Mattsun?" He finally questions since he still isn't saying anything. Isn't doing anything. And Makki's heart starts to pound. Mattsun swallows thickly and the guilt is so clear in his eyes it's making something awful and sickening turn in Makki's stomach. The group is all still watching in anticipation Oikawa glancing at Iwaizumi who is watching the scene unfold slowly. His expression, one of...disappointment? The look he had when he and Mattsun were arguing earlier.

"Mattsun," Makki says again, this time firmer, ignoring the awful feeling in his chest. "Answer the question." Makki knows the answer. He wants to hear it though and he is honestly finding some satisfaction in the guilty look the boy is holding. Not much. Most of his body just feels sick.

"I...umm..." He glances at Iwaizumi who offers absolutely no help. The rest of the group just looks confused. They all know the answer at this point, but they don't understand the reaction. Or the guilt. Any of it. Mattsun finally just sighs in defeat, looking at his lap for a moment before turning to Suga since he asked the question. "No, I'm not." Makki's eyes widen and he's off Mattsun's lap in seconds, Mattsun quickly looking at him.

"Are you serious?" He's glad he sounds more mad than hurt right now. He would prefer not to react at all in this moment since he can feel the confused looks coming from the group.

Makes sense. He doesn't care right now though.

"Makki umm..." Makki scoffs, shaking his head as he feels the hurt start to seep through. Mattsun slowly starts to stand up and Makki takes that moment to leave, walking quickly away and toward the kitchen. Mattsun winces a little.

"Makki wait." Then he's following the boy, leaving the rest of the group confused.

"Maybe we should end the game there," Akaashi suggests lightly.

"I'm so confused." Suga looks up at Daichi and smiles.

"Don't even try to understand." He gives him a kiss on the cheek and Iwaizumi chuckles.

"Yeah even I don't get it fully and I've been friends with them since Junior High." Oikawa glances back, worried.

"Are they going to be okay?" Iwaizumi shrugs.

"I mean probably. They are usually able to work through it with shitty and vague communication. Might take a moment though."

"We could pull up a movie. While we wait for them." The group all nods in agreement, switching how they are sitting since Daichi and Suga's back were to the TV. Iwaizumi sets something up while the group ignores the light voices coming from the other room.

"Makki please wait a second and let me explain." Mattsun follows the boy but he doesn't stop walking.

"What's to explain? You had sex and never told me. Seems pretty fucking straightforward."

"Please don't be mad." Makki finally stops and spins around.

"Mad? Why would I be mad? I'm not mad." He clearly is. "I'm just...getting some water." He turns around again, walking to the sink. Mattsun steps closer, reaching for him to get him to look at him again.
