Dream On Fire

chapter 40 - confession

Oikawa's POV

"Iwaizumi and I, we didn't mean to exclude you like that." I said finally breaking the long silence.

"Really?" Y/n squeaked. 

"Of course, we would never do that to you."  

Y/n nodded, "Then why did you?" I turned to study Y/n's features, just for a second. I never realized how pretty they were. I wanted to kiss them right then and now but I had explaining to do.

I took a deep breath, I knew I had been spending more time with Iwaizumi but I never meant to ignore Y/n. Iwaizumi and I had been very stressed the past few days, we had test, volleyball, and we had been talking about what we should do about Y/n. 

After I figured out I had feelings for them I didn't know what do. I had been talking to Iwaizumi, on how to confess to them. I guess in between all the chaos I had been ignoring, y/n. I sighed sadly, how would I put this into words? I turned to look at y/n again. 

I didn't want to say it but you saw that they had been crying. I had seen them cry while we were walking to the park, you didn't know what to say. You didn't know what to say to them, you hadn't seen y/n cry before. 

You must've been staring for a while because y/n waved their hand in front of my face, "Oikawa, Oikawa-san." 

"Oh sorry," I paused, "I was thinking about things." 

Y/n hummed and they looked at the stars, I couldn't take it. They were so pretty and amazing, and they were so kind. "I love you." I blurted. 

"Huh?" Y/n turned frantically, face red. There eyes widened and they physically flinched, some reaction.

Did I really just say that? I buried my face in my hands, usually I was so much more confident. I fiddled with my glasses rearranging them and took a deep breath. "I love you, you're amazing and pretty." 

"Hold on-" y/n paused, "I-" Y/n ran their fingers through their hair, "I'm processing." 

Processing? I asked myself confused. 

"I-, Is this a joke?" they asked. 

"Of course not! I could never do that to someone, that would be so cruel." 

Y/n nodded and looked at me, "I-I love you to." 

I smiled and looked at the stars, unsure of what to say next, "You knew didn't you?" 

"What?" I asked

"You knew I liked you." 

I sighed, "Uhm ya," 

Y/n laughed, "How long did you know?" 

"A few days." 

"Really? I thought I was hiding it so badly." 

"No, I was completely oblivious." 

"Will you...be my lover?" I asked nervously. 

Y/n giggled, "Of course silly," I turned and put my hand on the back of y/n's head pulling them close. I kissed there forehead and then rested their forehead against mine for a few seconds before I kissed them again.
