🥀"I held you as you cried in my arms. You reminded so much of an angel ornament I had when I was younger. Well it fell, and it shattered. And now that's what you remind me of. My beautiful angel shattered and broken. But I won't make the same mistake twice. I won't throw you away. I'll fix you. No matter how many times my hands get cut."🥀

"Wake yo ass up."

Oikawa opened his eyes to see Atsumu standing over him. He already knew what response the blonde wanted.

"Bitch I'm up. I'm up. The fuck."

Atsumu laughed as he helped Oikawa off the floor. He then walked over to their overnight bags and picked out their skincare and dental stuff.

"Come on Tooru. We have to go freshen up so everyone can go get breakfast before heading to the hospital," Atsumu said as he tossed Oikawa his stuff. "Plus, you kinda look like shit honey."

"You are the definition of shit, hOnEy," Oikawa quipped back as he walked behind Miya to the bathrooms. On their way there, they passed Iwaizumi headed back to the gym with Yaku. Oikawa quickly debated on whether he wanted to greet them or not, since Iwaizumi had been ignoring him more and more recently. He decided to try anyway.

"Good morning Yaku! Good morning Iwa-chan!" Oikawa exclaimed as he plastered a huge grin across his face.

"Oh! Good morning," Yaku said, returning the smile. He loved being around Oikawa in the mornings. It was a reminder that everything was alright. Iwaizumi on the other hand, simply stared in Oikawa's direction.

"You slept with him last night?" Iwaizumi questioned as he crossed his arms. (Those wonderful gorgeous arms *cough* anyway.)

"Yes I did. Well not like that, but in the same area, yeah. We slept beside each other," Oikawa responded, starting to get anxious. 'Why does Iwa-Chan have to act so pissy towards me. He doesn't even fucking like me! It's like he doesn't want me to be happy anymore,' Oikawa thought to himself as he dug his fingernails into his other arm. Ever since he had confessed to Iwaizumi about a month ago, Iwaizumi seemed extra mean to Oikawa, as if to try and scare him off. Oikawa has spent many nights with Atsumu while he tried to recover, and ended up slightly falling for him. So why would Iwaizumi act this way?

Oikawa bit his lip and clenched his eyes closed as his breathing sped up, which is something he does when he starts overthinking and is on the brink of breaking down. Atsumu quickly noticed this and took Oikawa's hands in his. He quickly glanced at Yaku who immediately got the message.

"Come on Iwaizumi. Let's go wake the others," Yaku said as he tried to pull Iwaizumi away, but he wasn't budging.

"What's wrong with him?" Iwaizumi asked, but Yaku continued to pull on his arm.

"Come. On. You've done enough here," Yaku said as he pulled one last time and Iwaizumi gave in. He watched the scene behind him as he walked away.

Oikawa was crying at this point, and crying loudly at that. He was gasping for air and anything he tried to say was inaudible.

"Breathe Oikawa. He's gone. It's just me. I'm here," Atsumu said, trying to soothe the boy, but it wasn't working. Oikawa had collapsed to the ground and was now sitting with his knees to his chest and his head down in his "breakdown ball" as Atsumu liked to call it. He needed to get Oikawa out of the hallway and into a classroom, but how? He couldn't move him in this state.

Suddenly, two boys burst through the door. Atsumu looked up from hugging Oikawa to see a boy with dusty rose hair dive down and embrace Oikawa with him. He looked up and immediately recognized the tall black hair boy, and he caught on quickly. It was Hanamaki and Matsukawa. He was so thankful they were there. They must've heard Oikawa's cries.

"It's okay Oikawa. We're here," Makki said, rubbing Oikawa's back. Matsukawa decided to stand and keep watch to make sure nobody else entered the hallway until they got Oikawa inside a classroom.

Oikawa was still gasping for air and Atsumu knew they needed to do something fast.

"Oikawa look at me baby. He's gone. I know you don't understand why he's being like this. But you've done all you can. You haven't done anything wrong. Just look at me honey."

Oikawa looked up, his breathing slow and steady, but still trembling. Atsumu took this chance and kissed the tears off of Oikawa's cheeks and then pressed his forehead to his.

"He's gone?" Oikawa asked looking at the three people surrounding him.

"Yes he's gone," Atsumu reassured him.

"And you don't have to talk to him again unless you're ready. I hate seeing you like this," Matsukawa added, bringing Makki to his side. "We all do."

"Please don't leave Atsumu. Makki, Mattsun, you guys too. P-please don't abandon me. I promise I'll get over it. I'll get better," Oikawa spoke as he began to stand and he tried to smile. Makki and Mattsun shook their heads at the fake smile they knew all too well.

Atsumu immediately pulled him into a hug, kissing away the remaining tears once more. Makki and Mattsun joined the hug as Atsumu began to speak.

"I won't leave you. I'll be here until blood no longer flows through my body."
