King & Queen; Oikawa Tooru X Reader ❤

50; incipient

He left.

He really left you there alone.

You were still floating in the water, your clothes became heavier by the second. Lifting yourself out of the pool you kept sitting at the edge. The water showed your depressed reflection, at which you just splashed the liquid with your feet.

"I've been fine all along!"

At his sudden voice you snapped your head in the direction where it came from.

"I've been getting along with everything fine and then you happened! You, who's so much more than just breathtakingly beautiful. You're the first person that I can't grasp, I don't get what you're thinking at all."

"I'm -"

"Don't apologise! It's not your fault so don't! ..."

He came closer, sitting next to you before talking further.

"I don't know what's going on with me, I know that I should calm down but my heart and thoughts race every time I see you. Yet when I'm close to you like this, when my heart is close to burst, I feel at ease."

He now looked at you directly, his speech became calm.

"I'm sorry. For everything I've done, I'll make it up to you. I'm an idiot, I get why you wouldn't want to go out with me. "

"...You never heard my answer, whether I want to or not, you don't know that."

"T-then, do you w-want-"

"Oikawa, you said something about making it up to me. I want to eat takoyaki."

"...Why did you dodge my question?" For once in a while his gaze was unwavering, locking his eyes with yours.

His orbs were mesmerising, you stared in awe, close to losing yourself into his gaze.

Now his look changed slowly into one you've already seen before. It softened, just like that one time in the storage room. He started leaning towards you, his eyes closing more and more.

Suddenly he only gently bumped his forehead onto yours, before backing away.

"Honestly, you need to tell me to stop if you don't want me to kiss you." As he glanced at your face he shrieked in shock. Your face was flushed, he couldn't tell if he ever saw you like this.

"J-Joõ-chan?"

Now he blushed an even deeper shade of red, hesitantly reaching out one hand for your cheek. When it touched, you didn't flinch but he could tell that you were nervous nevertheless.

"Don't tell me, you wouldn't mind it?" his voice was slightly shaking.

You didn't answer though, you just avoided looking at his brown sparkling orbs.

Then his hand slipped to the crook of your neck, pulling you into a hug. Through his still wet clothes you could feel his toned body, making you feel even more at loss for words.

"If you don't answer me I'm only getting my hopes up!" he almost shrieked out of nervousness and you wondered if the rapid heartbeat you could feel was his or your own.

"...You're an idiot..." you mumbled but since you were so close he clearly understood, though he only chuckled.

His hand stroked your back and only now you noticed that your wet clothes made you feel really cold.

"Neee~ Iwa-chan, can you show me the letter?"

With dry clothes the setter now sat on the bed of his childhood friend. It was late in the evening, cleaning the pool took you both longer than expected.

However, at his question the ace just held the letter up high in the air away from him.
"There, I showed it to you."

"Iwa-chaaaaan, you know how I meant it!"

"Why do you want to know who she likes?"

"...I realised I gave up on her the second I realised my feelings. That's not really like me though." in his face was a trace of pink.

"Ohh, so what do you want to do now?"

"I'll make her fall in love with me. I'll work hard to become her boyfriend!"

"And why do you need to know who she likes to do that?"

"Well, intimidating that lucky bastard to prevent him from going out with her isn't such a bad idea, don't you think?"

"Such an asshole..." despite his insult he reached the envelope to his friend.

Though Oikawa only stared at it in disbelief.

"Take it before I change my mind!"

"I'll take it, I'll take it!"

His hands opened shivering the envelope, nervously pulling out the paper.

Ask her yourself, Trashykawa.

"Iwa-chan, how mean!"

"I never said I'd give you her love letter..."
