Till Death Do Us Part

June 20th

First day of hell- I mean school.

Not only was Oikawa looking like his usual beautiful self, he was also internally panicking and trying to assess his priorities.
Toru had literally poured his heart out and a secret to someone whom he had lost ties with. He assumed that's why it was easy to confide to him. Yeah, maybe it was just that and nothing else.

How to face him again? Well... That's something. Oikawa's birthday had passed ("Fuck yeah I'm 18!" "LANGUAGE!") and he didn't throw a party since his mom just wanted some bonding time before he moved out.

Oikawa hadn't told the duo and definitely not Iwaizumi. It's too awkward so nah.
Yet somehow they found out and sent him presents.

"Ma, did you tell him my birthday?"
"Well of course! I mean you two were the best of friends, it only seemed natural, would you like me to invite him?"
"NO! I mean, he must be busy..."

He wasn't actually. Iwaizumi was holed up in his house doing nothing but watch cooking channels?

He'd gotten him an alien glow in the dark keychain from a capsule machine while he was buying snacks. A cheap gift but Oikawa shouldn't be saying anything since he just piggybacked off his mom's present for Iwaizumi. He didn't take Iwaizumi to be petty like that. It was sort of refreshing from his serious demeanor.

Makki and Mattsun both sent a homemade card with a really weird face and that was all.

Anyways, not the gifts he was expecting and he wouldn't tell anyone else that they made him smile.

The school's gate was now in view. He squeezed his bag strap on impulse.
"Alright time to bring this bitch down.", He whispered to himself and fixed his hair a little.

The autumn breeze disheveled it again but he didn't pay any attention for it was brought to something else. And that something, being in the form of Iwaizumi.

Fuckfuckfuck.
Oikawa stopped dead in his tracks. The spiky haired man hadn't seemed to notice him. He was sitting in front of the open gate door and typing something in his phone. Oikawa couldn't confront him. No no he wasn't ready.

Especially after that... sensitive moment that ended so awkwardly and quietly. He furrowed his eyebrows and looked at the people walking in. Maybe if I just blend in...

He tried getting in step with two girls. Unfortunately, at that very moment, Iwaizumi looked up. Oikawa took a last minute decision and broke in between the two girls and wrapped his arms around their shoulders.

They yelped and jumped in surprise, giving him a confused look. If it were any other guy than Oikawa, they might've pushed him off and yelled at him. No, This was Oikawa Tooru, he's too beautiful for that, honey.
