It was the first day of semester holidays. I was sitting on my bed with my laptop on my lap. I was working on an essay I had to submit right after the holidays. It was better to get work done as soon as possible, so I had more free time afterwards. But after working for two hours, I felt stiff. It was time for a little refreshment, so I went to the living room and kitchen area. Iwaizumi was sitting on the couch, watching TV. I giggled as I made my way to the kitchen area to get a drink.
"You want a drink too?"
"Nah, but a snack. Do we have something?"
Iwaizumi sat up and looked at me. The instant I saw him, I had to laugh and almost spilled my drink.
His hair had the style of a bed-hair and on his cheek was a mark of his hand from holding his head up while laying on the couch. The sight was just too funny. I couldn't stop laughing, so Iwaizumi eventually jumped over the couch and headed my way. He stopped right in front of me and looked at me. I managed to stop laughing so I could return his gaze. His olive eyes captured my [E/C]. I think I even blushed. Suddenly, his funny-looking appearance didn't affect me at all, because his whole face looked so serious, but not strict. Without looking away, he reached out his hand. I didn't look away either, but I saw his hand being placed right next to my waist from the corner of my eyes. His free hand went through his hair. Iwaizumi was so close and his gaze piercing. Everything inside me suddenly went berserk. I think my face was as red as a tomato.
"I-I-Iwaizu...mi. W-What-"
"You're in my way."
It took me a moment to realize, he was reaching for the kitchen cabinet beneath the kitchen counter I was leaning against. That's where we stored our snacks. Feeling silly all of a sudden, I laughed again while making way for Iwaizumi to reach his beloved snacks. Honestly, what did I expect?
I took another sip from my drink and looked amused at Iwaizumi who grabbed several sorts of snacks. When he finally got what he wanted, he motioned for me to follow him back to the couch. I raised an eyebrow and went after him, wondering what would happen next.
"What are we going to do?"
Iwaizumi settled down on the couch and placed the snacks on the small table in front of it. I sat down next to him and watched his actions. Iwaizumi seemed focused on setting a comfortable atmosphere. He even got up and brought his blanket and pillows from his room. He threw the blanket over my head and jumped on the place next to me. I rose the blanket a bit to see what he was doing next. Before I knew it, he took the blanket and wrapped us both in.
"You've been working the whole day. First in the café, then for University. It's not like semester holidays have started or something. Let's just relax and watch some movies. We haven't done that in a long time."
I was quite surprised seeing Iwaizumi so excited about something. Maybe he was right. I snuggled down in my part of the blanket and watched Iwaizumi browsing through Netflix to find a movie to watch. I already had an idea though.
"Let's watch something from Disney!"
"Why Disney?"
"Because we had Godzilla the last time. Now it's my turn."
Iwaizumi sighed with a smile.
"Prepare for the longest movie night of your life",he said as he started the first movie.
I had a long day already, how on earth was I supposed to survive the night?
The answer was: Not at all.
The room was dark, except for the TV screen. Iwaizumi wasn't saying anything. I heard him breathing calm and steady. I was wrapped comfortably in a blanket. It all made me more tired than I already was and I could feel myself drifting off into the land of dreams while my body slowly slid to the side, but stopped when it bumped against a muscular arm.

Iwaizumi POV (since reader-chan fell asleep xD)

I couldn't believe her. First, insisting on watching these movies and then falling asleep before we could finish the first one.
"Are you really serious?" I whispered to her with a smile. I knew she wouldn't answer. She was already deep inside her dream. I really got myself an amusing roommate. Instead of watching the movie, I took a closer look at [L/N]. Usually, we weren't that physically close, but she really was tired from today. I felt the urge to stroke some strands of hair out of her face. It felt so soft, her hair and her skin. When I thought about it, I never got to be so close with a girl. At least not for any interest in me. Without thinking, my head moved closer to the top of her head. I snuggled my face in her [H/C] hair and took in her scent. I remained like this for a moment when the room suddenly went dark. I halfway jumped away from [L/N], realizing what I just did. My heart was beating like crazy and I felt my face heating up. I looked over to the TV and saw that the movie was over. The screen went dark. I sighed in relief. I slowly moved back closer to [L/N], so I could lay her down on the couch. Then I went into my room to sleep too. As I turned on the light, I noticed that my bed was empty and realized, [L/N] just claimed my stuff. So I went back to get a pillow that was luckily not in use, but I could definitely forget about my blanket. "It isn't cold anyways",I thought for myself as I headed back into my room. Before laying down to sleep,  I checked my phone one last time. I had several messages from a group chat which consisted of our former volleyball team in high school.
Hanamaki was asking if we would go to the summer festival together this year again. Some people already said they'd go. I, for my part, declined. I put my phone away and laid down on my bed. This time, I'd go with my roommate.
