Your Lie That Night (Iwaoi)

part 3 ~ oikawa

Ding ! ding ! ding ! I ring the usual rythme bell for iwa-chan's house and i hear footsteps just seconds later. Iwa-chan opens the door and my eyes instantly fall on his muscles that weren't hidden now that he was wearing a t-shirt. Ahhh just one day of not going to school and i missed him to death.
"Can you have patience and not ring bell more than necessary?" Iwa-chan gestures for me to get in and closes the door behind me. A familiar smell rise up to my nose and i recognize it imediately. Fried rice! I don't say another word and run towards the kitchen where iwa-chan's mom was just setting the table. Seeing me, she brings a smile on her face and i quickly rush to her for a hug. She and iwa-chan shared many similar features in looks and i always envied their good genes in their family.

The food was, just like usual, amazing and i made sure to tell his mom about it. When i reached out my hand to get water, iwa-chan noticed the bandage on my hand and asked about it but i instantly lied saying i got scratched by a table corner. The truth was, its where i get my drip needle inserted and i didnt want to let him know about my hospital visit. Wait! Did i tell you guys that iwa-chan doesnt know about my cancer? Ah well i must have forgotten to tell. Anyways, i havent told him because i think if i tell him he's just going to treat me like a patient and act less like his usual mean self. I cant tell him because i know he will care and worry so it would be better not to let him know, not to let him hurt before the day i leave. Maybe its too selfish of me but i can't see him get hurt.

I thanked his mom for the food, after which iwa-chan ushered me up his room. As soon as we got inside, he fell on to the bed and told me to sit anywhere i liked. Anywhere i liked hmm? I stood for a while and then gently threw myself on his bed. I laid beside him and it was weird for me but i felt happy at the same time, iwa-chan didnt seem to care either way.
"So? What do you want to do here? Watch a movie?"  I nodded to his question and he stood to go put it on. I glanced at his wall clock and i remember it was my time for medication. I tried to make as less of a sound as possible so i wouldnt catch iwa-chan's attention but he caught me right when i was swallowing.
"Are you okay?" He narrowed his eyes at me with suspicion, his lips pursed together firmly.
"Hehehe did i get you worried iwa-chaaan? Don't worry its just a headache, i'll be fine" i faked a giggle but im pretty sure iwa-chan saw right through my lie. Surely, if ive known him since childhood then he does too.

The tension in the room was cut off when the movie opening music started blaring and iwa-chan sat back on his bed. He got a blanket and was about to put it on himself but i pulled it towards me gesturing i was cold as well. It became a tug war as we both laughed while pulling. This side of iwa-chan was only known to me and maybe a few more. I always had inner pride for knowing his this side. In the end we both shared the blanket but since it was initially for one person, i had to move closer to him. So close that our thighs touched. My heart thumped in my chest like crazy and i became scared that he was going to notice my heartbeat but the movie covered it up for me.
"Oi, have you lost weight?" Iwa-chan spoke when we got underneath the blanket and i realized that i used to be more than just lean figured and all bony. I didnt know how to respond and just hmm-ed at him, putting an end to his headless interrogation.

It would have been an interesting movie but i couldnt pay attention to it at all. All that was in my radar was his and mine thighs touching. Even though there was jeans to separate them, i felt as if his touch was ripping everything off me and it was a sensation i wish i could feel often.

Maybe it was the exhaustion from school but iwa-chan fell asleep on my shoulder in just half an hour in the movie. Ahhh my heart was already crazy but this just made me feel as if my heart would really manage to burst any minute now. I looked at his calm asleep face where he no longer scrunched his nose and didnt wrinkle his forehead. I wandered on his lips. How soft they looked. I couldnt hold myself back from curosity and lightly,gently traced a single finger on his lips. His lips were a pale pink that reminded me of a rose bud. The top lip was thinner, but not too thin, and it had a natural cupid's bow; the bottom one was larger and more plush. I stared at them. I wanted to feel his lips against mine. Then i moved up to trace his eyes and ohh how brown his eyecolor was. Brown? Eyecolor? Shit! He had his eyes opened. And was looking at me. Shit shit shit. I sprang up and stuttered to justify but i didnt know what to say. He just stared with no expression. Nope. Nothing showing  if he was mad or disappointed. Ah and to make things worse i blushed a dark shade of red and i tried hiding my face underneath a pillow.

"Ah i slept through half of the movie, i havent caught up on sleep for a while until now" iwa-chan said, and i looked at him to see if he was mad that i interrupted his sleep. He wasn't. He just sat up and said he is going to get some snacks from downstairs and left the room.

I don't know what is killing my heart right now, dying from embarassment or dying from nervousness. Why didnt iwa-chan say anything though? I just acted pervy or maybe it was okay with friends? No! A friend can't just do that right? It wasn't okay. Iwa-chan walked back in but i stood and said i had to leave now that it's late. He understood the awkwardness in our situation and didnt stop me.

On my way back home i was thinking of not seeing iwa-chan for the whole weekend now but then i remembered our saturday meet...
I hope it wont be awkward tomorrow.

☆yall idc if this flops or something, i just wanna end this quickly and die from embarassement cause if my friend sees this she sure will ask me about it ^_^ lets pray she doesnt.
