Getting to know You (Oikawa Tooru )

29.

Rumors started faster than you can imagine. People thought they were fake but soon they would know that they were all true.

My teachers already knew in the coming week I would be transferring and all my work was already received and being completed.

My training continued as per usual so I would be ready when I finally made it to Shiritorizawa. I was nervous, nervous beyond belief. But what I was scared of was what my friends would say.

I took the weights I had on my shoulders and dropped them onto the shoulder blade height shelf. I took a deep breath as I stepped out from under the bar and sat onto the floor with my water.

I looked up into the mirror and looked into my eyes.

I didn't know who I was anymore. This person I was looking at didn't seem like me. The old me wouldn't have gone to Shiritorizawa for all of the money in the world. Yet here that girl was, ready to abandon all of her friends and the life she knew for a place on a soccer team with people she had never met.

The door to the gym opened and I turned around to look at the intruder. I was met with bright brown eyes and fluffy hair.

"Miyumi-Chan!"

"Hello Oikawa."

"Are you okay?"

I nodded.

"Come on! Class is going to start soon and you need to shower!" He stuck out his tongue and scrunched his eyes closed. "You smell of sweat."

I threw my water bottle across the room and he let out an 'eek' as he ducked behind one of the closest machines.

"Miyumi-Chan why would you try to hurt me?" He exclaimed as he waved his arms frantically around in the air.

"What do you need Oikawa?" I asked as I pushed myself up from the floor and brushed some of the dust off the back of my pants. "Other than telling me I reek." I added, cutting him off and leaving him flubbering like a fish.

"Well, I um-" he scratched the back of his head as he chuckled nervously. "I'll wait outside and we can walk together! See you in a minute!" He almost ran out the door, pulling it closed and slamming it behind him.

"Jesus, he's such an idiot." I mumbled as I walked over, grabbed my bag and then my water bottle

I then made my way to the locker room.

When I finished with my shower I went to my locker and grabbed my make up and I opened my bag to grab my clothes. My hand stopped and my eyes widened.

I let out a scream as I jumped away from my bag. I held the towel tighter around me as I jumped up onto the bench in between the lockers.

"What's wrong?" Oikawa yelled as he burst through the door.

"There's a snake!" I exclaimed.

Oikawa let out a shriek and jumped onto the bench next to me, wrapping his arms around my shoulders.

Suddenly I realized that something else was wrong. My face flushed red and my eyes widened. "Get out of the locker room trashykawa!"

"Right right! But there's a snake!" He exclaimed.

"Then go get a janitor you Baka!" He looked terrified at the floor. The snake hissed from within my bag, it's head sticking out from the opening. "It hasn't left yet so go before someone sees you and gets the wrong idea!"

Doing just that he jumped down and ran out of the locker room. The snake seemed to stand up and move closer. "Oh my god." I whispers as I moved down the bench to the other end.

Holding my towel tightly I waited. Finally the door reopened. "What's gong on here?"

"Oh thank goodness. Sensei! Please, the snake is in my bag!" My biology instructor went over to the bag and while she had that covered I waited until the snake was out. When she was finished I ran over to it and ran to the closest changing room.

I dumped my clothes out on the bench in the room and let out a groan.

"Is everything alright in there?" My Sensei asked as she called through the door.

"No!" I sighed. I opened the door and showed her my tattered uniform. "The snake went on hunt for something in my bag and tattered everything."

"I'll get you a new uniform. Stay put, I will be right back. And I will inform your first period teacher that you will be late."

"Thank you."

Not long after I heard the bell for first period ring and I knew this last week was going to be torture.
