Suga texted Oikawa later that day, asking if he'd like to study again later in the evening, so Oikawa and Iwaizumi had gone to the mall to kill time.

"Did you know Suga lives alone?" Oikawa stopped, turning back to look at the other man who was staring through the window of a high-class restaurant. "Hajime, what is it?"

He peered into the dining room, following where Iwaizumi was pointing.

They weren't far from the window, sitting at  table for two, hands clasped, leaving no question about their relationship.

Rage filled Oikawa.

Before he could stop himself, he'd pushed open the door to the restaurant and forced his way passed the hostess to their table. Iwaizumi called after him, but he ignored it. He looked down at Yaku, disgusted.

"Things get tough in your relationship and you decide to cheat instead of working through it. I thought higher of you, Yaku, yet here you are with some guy who can't be nearly as good to you as Iwaizumi has been."

Yaku blanched, color draining from his face as he scrambled to find words. He looked between Oikawa and the man across from him. "I...Oikawa...Lev...You don't know anything about my relationship with Iwaizumi."

Oikawa stuck his nose in the air, channeling the aura he used to take on the court. "I do know one thing about your relationship: it's over. He saw you here, not me. I'm just delivering the message for him." His eyes flicked toward the glass, at Iwaizumi standing on the other side, watching them.

Yaku followed his gaze, panicking and reaching for Lev's hand again. Iwaizumi turned away, disappearing from view. Oikawa was out the door before Yaku could recover. The smug smile disappeared when he caught up to Iwaizumi.

Iwaizumi punched his hand into the wall. "Dammit! I should have known." He took a breath and turned to Oikawa, his expression stoic. "I'm going home. Do whatever you want." He began walking away.

"Ah, Iwa, wait! I'll go with you."

"You've got a date. If you cancel, I'll have to start calling you Flakykawa."

"I'm still riding back with you. It's a shorter walk from your place." He didn't trust Iwaizumi to drive alone.

His best friend nodded and Oikawa didn't say a word the drive back.
