When the sun began to show, Iwaizumi quickly got up and got a piece of large debris to provide a shadow for Oikawa.

“Shoyo! I need the drug after you inject Natsu with it!” He called loudly. Oikawa couldn’t move from behind the shadow now... It was safe to remove the debris and let him heal. The pillar began to help the demon out.

Shoyo heard his superior before nodding and continuing with his own issues.

He watched Iwaizumi’s actions in a daze, “what are you doing?..” He muttered out as he furrowed his eyebrows. The brunette couldn’t help but give up on moving. He had already lost his master and it was just in a few minutes that he’ll be turned back into a human. And, he wasn’t very pleased with knowing that.

Iwaizumi raised an eyebrow. “Gave up? You’re definitely not my Oikawa.” He noted. It was a sad sight, but it was only temporary. It was really useful too so it wouldn’t be hard injecting the demon.

Oikawa turned his head away from Iwaizumi, huffing loudly. “No.. I’ve just accepted that I’ll be human from now on, I can even barely remember how to act like one.” He admitted.

The demon began regenerating again as the debris was lifted off of him. Oikawa went quiet for the whole time with a dazed and blank look, he really didn’t want it to happen but it had to.

In a few moments, Shoyo shuffled over. The kid was beat up and covered in blood, clearly exhausted, yet he seemed more enthusiastic than ever. “Iwaizumi-San, here!” He chirped as he handed the leftovers of the drug.

Iwaizumi took it before turning to the brunette. “...I missed you.” He said simply before reaching to inject the drug.

He was nervous as he injected the serum. Natsu already acted like a human as a demon, so she was fine if she stayed the exact same mind-wise. But what if Oikawa only turned human physically? Not mentally? What if he was still just as corrupt?

Even then, the brunette was still scared of needles but it was just in a blink of an eye that it was injected. He furrowed his eyebrows and slightly opened an eye, “is it done?” He mumbled.

Oikawa blinked and looked down at his skin; it was no longer sickly white, it was a healthy skin tone. He turned to Iwaizumi with eyes sparkling brighter than the sun. Maybe he was.. A little bit happy.

Iwaizumi noticed the skin regaining colour and immediately looked at the brunette’s face to see a change. It wasn’t hard for him to notice the changed look in Oikawa’s eyes. The ones Iwaizumi missed so much.

Oikawa finally realised the shit he did to Iwaizumi. He went quiet for a while as he watched his bestfriend cry a river. He felt too guilty to even say a simple 'sorry'.

“You’re back... Right?” Iwaizumi couldn’t help but choke out his words, his eyes becoming a bit watery.

“Iwaizumi-San, who’s this?” Shoyo had been standing there with a lost expression, but he couldn’t help but dramatically have tears streaming down his eyes seeing his senpai cry. Iwaizumi hardly ever showed emotion, much less cry!

The brunette decided to say nothing and just pull the dark-haired male into a tight hug. “Iwa-chan.” He called out in the same sweet tone. Just a bit deeper, since they’ve aged.

Oikawa had to admit that Iwaizumi was great during their little fight and in real battles as well. Though, now that the corps defeated Ushijima, they’ll disband.

The former demon had a few regrets such as he shouldn’t have let a demon attack him like that, should’ve trained hard enough to take the demon out. It was all over now, for the demons and demon slayers.

Iwaizumi remained quiet. If he spoke he knew his voice would crack, he didn’t wanna seem /that/ vulnerable. The last time he had cried was when he found the Oikawa family’s corpses, and man did he feel like he kept everything bottled in since then.

He tightened his hand on Oikawa’s shirt and choked out a laugh. “I missed you so much... I never even imagined you could have still been alive.” He mumbled quietly. He should have stayed quiet, his voice was cracking uncontrollably.

“You’ve missed so much, you’ve been gone for so long..” He glanced over at Hinata and Natsu who were watching them, and they were only two of the countless people he met on his journey.

Oikawa let out a loud sigh, patting Iwaizumi head as the male went on about him. “I know I have.” He rolled his eyes playfully, “I’m sorry for what I did.. I threw you, kicked and punched you.” He managed to mumble out an apology.

“You’re a real dick, you know that?” He joked as he pulled away to cup Oikawa’s cheeks and face him. He wore a soft smile before he offered a bright grin. He just felt so genuinely happy to have his best friend back.

Surprisingly, the demon didn’t shed a single tear. It’s as if he didn’t feel anything from his past actions.

“Wow. It’s been so long since you’ve said that to me.” He joked along with his bestfriend and chuckled, smiling back at him. “Hey now. You’ve grown a lot, you know?” Oikawa pointed out, even though he still had to look down slightly.

“Yeah, you were a real annoying pain in the ass.” Iwaizumi spoke in a light hearted manner, not wanting to keep the mood sad. “But technically, I’ve done those things to you before so I guess we’re even now.” He remarked playfully.

“Right. I will never.. Ever forgive you for what you’ve done, Iwa-chan.” Oikawa joked with a determined expression, as if what Iwaizumi did to him was that bad.

Iwaizumi rolled his eyes and laughed. “My bad, Loserkawa.” He replied dryly.

He felt happy. He didn’t remember the last time he felt so care free. “You have too. I can’t believe I missed your peak years of puberty.” Iwaizumi taunted and tilted up Oikawa’s chin. “Look at me...” he spoke softly.

“I know. I’ve become even prettier, right?” The brunette chuckled, a smug look over his face. He hummed out a ‘hm’ as he looked at the dark-haired male. “What is it?”

Shoyo opened his mouth to speak when the realization hit him before shutting it so he wouldn’t ruin the moment. That must of been Oikawa! Who else would Iwaizumi-San be so comfortable around.

Iwaizumi stared at Oikawa for a few seconds until he let his expression turn soft. “Yeah. You have.” He said quietly before bringing their lips together. In all honesty, this moment was probably the softest Iwaizumi has and ever will be. He was just glad to have his best friend back.

Shoyo choked on his own spit and instantly turned his head away while covering Natsu’s eyes. This seemed like a invasion of privacy! Did Iwaizumi-San even realize he was standing right there?! Was this even Iwaizumi-San?!

Oikawa chuckled as Iwaizumi agreed at his joking statement. “I expected something like an insult but this is pleasantly surprising.” He said before kissing Iwaizumi deeply, wrapping his arms around his neck.

“I’m nice every once in a while.” Iwaizumi replied jokefully, still smiling. When Oikawa continued the kiss, Iwaizumi didn’t hesitate to kiss back and wrap his arms around the others waist.

The brunette pulled away after a bit, “Iwa-chan.” he chuckled and pointed to the siblings watching them.

He placed a soft kiss on the male’s lips, “this feels more romantic than platonic like back in the days.” He turned away, covering his mouth as a light blush appeared on his cheeks.

“Maybe just a little.” He laughed at Oikawa’s flustered reaction.

Iwaizumi then noticed the presence of the siblings as well and turned red. “Ah, right-“ He cleared his throat. “Oikawa. Meet Shoyo, my kouhai.”
