on love

boyfriend material : qianru

qian knew something was bothering oikawa. there had to be. his cheerful face was faked and she could feel the depressed aura around him.

when they were walking home together, she took this chance to ask him what was bothering him.

"tooru," she said, earning a glance from him, "what's up?"

"am i... a bad boyfriend?" he asked, eyebrows furrowed together.

"what makes you think that way?" she asked.

"t-there were some guys saying that i was not good enough as a boyfriend," he muttered, gaze directed at the floor, "they said that they could treat you better and would be better at making you happy. they said i was a playboy and that i wouldn't treat you right and—"

she laughed and pecked his cheek to get him to stop his rambling.

"tooru, of course those aren't true," she said, "they were just being shits because they were jealous. and besides, who's the one that always reassures me that i'm not a bad singer and can memorise scores?"

"me!" oikawa answered cheerfully, a smile back in place on his face.

"there you go," qian said, "and they don't know how good of a boyfriend you are. so don't let yourself get depressed over what people say. okay?"

"okay," he answered with a grin, and gave her hand a reassuring squeeze.
