Reaching the dry path he let go and turned to stare at you. He placed his big hand on your face and mumbled to himself.

"Damn and what do I do now... if he sees you like this, he-..."

"I'm fine, you know. You can go back to practice and I -"

"As if! I'll get you to the infirmary, climb on my back."

"I'm fine, I can walk."

"Stop giving me that >I'm fine< crap! You're really hot!"

"I don't want you to hit on me!"

*facepalm*
The wham of his hand hitting his forehead made you jerk. For a while he stayed like this. Then his hand slipped from his face.

"I understand, I really do! You have reasons, you don't want to talk about. I get that! But try to understand as well, let me get you to the infirmary."

"I already said I would go, I just don't want to be carried."

He sighed, smiling and nodding. The both of you took off to the school clinic, where you was supposed to rest and wait for practise to be finished.

"Oikawa?"

Before disapearing out of sight he turned to you once more to listen.

"I'm sorry for the trouble. And thank you very much. Can you tell the others that I'm sorry if you see them?"

He nodded and you doze off inmediately.

When he returned to the gym he only saw his teammates and a worried friend.

His fangirls seemed to have left after he ran off, except for one.

To her and Iwa-chan he explained what little he knew. And with that practice went on.

After a while, still half asleep, lying on your stomach, you caught a smell and saw Iwaizumi but with hazy sight.

"Mmh, is that you Iwa-chan? You smell good."

He began to chuckle and now you noticed something was off, but you couldn't point your finger to it. You were still dozy and blabbing on.

"You know, something unfortunate happened.
While we were talking earlier someone stole the cheerleader uniform.
After you left I noticed that it was gone.
By coincidence I saw the bag, in that I was keeping the costume, hanging in the trees."

A sad laughter escaped your lips.
"Unfortunately the bag was empty... I tried the whole time to get it just to discover that it was empty... Why do the people still hate me, Iwa-chan? I'm just trying to find friends."

He was unable to answer. You felt a grip tighten at the back of your legs, which was strange because it couldn't be the boy standing next to you.

Tired you closed your teary eyes.
"You won't go, right? You'll stay with me?"

"Of course, stupid." he said, gently patting your head.

And just as you thought, while his hand stroked your hair, the touch on your limbs didn't fade. Before falling asleep again you realized that you were being carried by someone.

---

At a cold touch you woke for the 3rd time today. An unknown elderly lady was placing a small, wet towel on your forehead.

"Oh, you're awake! Are you alright, sweetheart? Do you want to eat something?"

"I'm sorry but, where- .. or who-?"

"I'm Hajime's mother and you're in his room. They brought you here because they didn't knew where you lived."

After thinking for a short while you noticed that your condition was lot better already.

"It seems you just overexerted yourself. How are you feeling?"

"I'm better. Thank you a lot for taking care of me, I'm really sorry to bother you."

"Don't say that, I'm glad that Hajime is taking a girl home for once! Also such a cute one!"

You wanted to clarify but you were interupted by the door flying open. It was Oikawa, followed by Iwaizumi's loud 'LET HER REST SOME MORE, TRASHYKAWA'.
