"Hajime? Are you alright?"

"..."

"Hajime?"

"..."

"Hajime! Answer me!"

"..."

"Goddammit Hajime!"

*beep*

Call ended

~~~~~~~~~~

One, two, one, two, one, two.

The steady pounding of your feet against the pavement echoed through the air as you chased after a retreating figure. 

"Hajime!" Your voice was resounding and powerful, causing for him to falter a bit, but not enough for you to catch up. He banked a sharp right and bounded up the steps to his apartment door, slamming it in your face. Panting, you slumped against the door, too tired to move. 

How the hell did it end up like this?

"Hajime..."

"Leave me alone." Came the muffled answer.

"Listen to me!" You were still gasping for breath, but this moment couldn't wait. 

"No. Go away."

"Why...why are you doing this?"

"..."

"...Answer me!"

"You cheated."

"I'm sorry!" 

I'm sorry, dang it Hajime! I'm sorry!

"Liar," was the immediate response. "...We're done (F/N)."

Those words almost stopped your heart altogether. 

Did my actions really lead everything to this? Is this it?

A small click next to you answered your unspoken question. You turn your head slightly to see a folded slip of paper glaring back at you. Dejected, you pick it up and unfolded it. On the paper was a crudely cut out photo of a married couple standing at the altar. On the corner of the wrinkled paper, in Iwaizumi's handwriting was:

This could've been us.

So long, (F/N).

- iwazumi hajime

. . .


That's when you snapped. You jumped up and pounded on the door with newfound energy.

"Goddammit Haijime! It was just a game of Mario Kart for goodness sake! Open up the damn door!"

"But you cheated!"

"It was just a game, so open up this door before I kick it down and punch the hell out of you!"

*Bonus*

Seconds passed as you pressed your ear against the crack in the door. You nearly missed the sound of a window hatch clicking open.

Loading...

"OH MY GOD IWAIZUMI HAJIME. I'M RUNNING AFTER YOU AND BEATING YOUR ASS UP IF I CATCH YOU!" 

Iwaizumi then set off in a dead fast sprint because he knew if you willed your mind to do it, you could do anything, and he did not want to get beaten up by you.
