One month had passed since school officially ended. The third years graduated, which meant they were off to college. It also meant Iwaizumi and Oikawa were ready to go.

The night before their flight, Himari video called them and made sure they had everything. The next day in the early morning, both families were in Himari's house ready to leave.

"Seriously dad? Why is the flight at five in the morning?"

Daisuke shrugged, "Because then Hajime can get situated once you two get there. Tooru and I have a longer flight."

"How long?" Oikawa asked.

Himari smirked, "Almost a whole day. Hajime and I will only have an eleven hour flight, so we'll be there in the late afternoon."

Oikawa's jaw dropped. He turned to Daisuke and he nodded, "Yeah, pretty much."

"That's crazy."

Himari smiled, "Don't worry, you'll be able to see the sunrise or set depending on where you're sitting."

Daisuke clapped his hands together and smiled at everyone, "Okay, does everyone have everything?"

"Yeah."

"Alright, let's get moving. Kids in the back, adults in the front."

Himari groaned and loaded her stuff up into the minibus. She got in and went to the back, Iwaizumi and Oikawa following her. Their parents sat in the front and once everyone was situated, Daisuke began driving.

"Did you rent this bus?" Oikawa asked.

"Nope. This bus belongs to the national team. It's mostly so the kids stay together during long drives."

Oikawa nodded and looked out the window. He was so jittery and excited that he couldn't help the grin that was on his face.

The ride was silent since it was 2:30 in the morning. Himari tried to sleep for an extra thirty minutes, but her dad insisted that they get to the airport extra early.

It didn't take long for them to get to the airport. Once Daisuke dropped them off at the gate, Himari grabbed her stuff and headed inside to check-in for everyone.

"Mari, did you check everyone in?" Her mom asked once everyone else was inside.

"Yup. Here are your boarding passes," she handed the two boys their tickets and held onto hers and Daisuke's.

Oikawa looked confused, "Why do I have two?"

"You have a layover, so you're going to stop at a different airport and then go to Argentina from there."

Oikawa nodded and got into line with her. Oikawa's mom and dad were fussing over him and Iwaizumi's were doing the same.

Soon, Daisuke returned and handed the bus keys to Ayaka. He took his luggage and boarding passes from Himari and stood in line.

When they got to the counter, Himari checked in first since she only had a carry on and a pillow. After everyone checked their bags in, it was time to head to TSA.

Iwaizumi's parents and Oikawa's parents were tearing up at the thought of their sons leaving to begin a new journey.

"I'll call you guys every day, I promise," Oikawa told his parents as they hugged him.

"You better. I want to know everything."

Iwaizumi patted his mom's back as she cried and hugged him, "Mom, please don't cry. I'm going to be coming back. I promise."

"I know, it's just, you're growing up so fast."

Iwaizumi smiled, "Mom, I'll call you and dad every day. If I ever skip a day, I'm sure Mari will find out what I'm up to."
