Years have past. About, ten years.

Alone in a bedroom at 7:00 a.m. The silence had it's ups and downs in the small apartment. No one would be there except one person who was always there.

Oikawa Tooru. 17 year old boy who lives in a small apartment alone on the thirteenth floor of an apartment building in Japan. A lot of things had happened since then. One being about his mother.

She died two years ago and left money for Oikawa, her beloved son. Oikawa didn't have a dad, due to his death when Oikawa was just a small toddler. His mother was all that he had left. After that dreadful day, the world became more colorless. The grey looked darker than usual and the world seemed to stop.

Afterwards, Oikawa left the home he grew up in to live somewhere else. He still wishes to find his soulmate, he promised his mom after all. Even though the world didn't have colors to it, he never gave up to find the true colors underneath all the gloomy so called 'color'.

He didn't go to school those past two years, but he did take classes online at the school he will be going to. It wasn't too far from where he lived, but going made him feel giddy inside.

Oikawa was still happy and dorky as ever, he still felt depressed about his parents, but it didn't let him down much. His mother wouldn't want him to mourn over them, she knew he would always cherish them. Oikawa knew his mother well to think that.

"All I am is a man, I want the world in my hands," Oikawa sang throughout the apartment in the shower. His angelic voice echoing the world.

"I hate the beach but I stand in California with my toes in the sand,"

He didn't realize he left windows open and how loud he was. He just kept singing one of his favorite songs.

"Use the sleeves on my sweater, let's have an adventure, head in the clouds but my gravity centered,"

Little did he know, he had someone listening. This man was enjoying the lovely voice as it hit his ears. He loved the way this mysterious singer sounded. He could tell it was his next door neighbor, but he never met the person or even seen them. But, something about his person made him feel a weird feeling inside.

"Touch my neck, and I'll touch yours, you and those little high waisted shorts,"

Oikawa felt weird all of a sudden. Like he was being watched or something. So he stopped singing and finished taking his shower.

The man next door was disappointed when he didn't hear his neighbor singing anymore. He brushed it off and went back to his daily routine, while humming the same song his neighbor sang.

"I should go meet him." He said to himself. He stood there for a minute before walking towards the door. Putting his shoes on, he grabbed his phone and apartment keys and headed out the door.

Slowly he walked to the next door to his right. Stopping in front of it he thought for a minute about what he should say. Oh well, he thought.

Oikawa heard a knock on his apartment door while putting his close on. Quickly, he put them on and ran to the door with his towel around his neck. Opening the door, he realized it was a man. But, what did he want?

"U-um, hello. I'm your neighbor. Iwaizumi Hajime." The mysterious man said.

Oikawa smiled and held his hand out to shake Iwaizumi's hand. "Hi! I'm Oikawa Tooru! Nice to meet you." They shook hands and looked at each other.

"I happened to hear you singing a little while ago." Iwaizumi said feeling a little embarrassed. Oikawa was really embarrassed at this point. Some stranger heard him sing! That's terrifying, to Oikawa.
