"how about this?" makki asked his friend with a cheerful tone and upon meeting oikawa's gaze, makki's energy instantly dropped to zero.

makki knew that when it comes to shopping, oikawa can be quite unenthusiastic about it. especially when he was dragged out of his bed just to accompany a friend to go shopping.

"come on, at least help me choose?" makki grins widely as he tugs the hem of oikawa's shirt, who's beside him, arms crossed over his chest and tapping his foot on the floor patiently waiting for makki to choose his suit already. 

"and i already told you, you look great in everything you wear." makki wasn't sure if he should be happy that his friend just gave him a compliment or if he should be annoyed that oikawa just gave him a hard time to choose between the two suits in his hands.

it is saturday today, and the two of them are supposed to be inside the office, working while facing the monitor of the computer. but not today, saturday for this time of the month is special for the company in which oikawa and makki works in.

well, today marks the 25th anniversary of the company, and the ceo decided to throw a party. and oikawa was definitely not-so thrilled about it. 

makki, on the other hand, was definitely looking forward about the party. the party won't be starting until seven o'clock in the evening and makki didn't waste any single minute nor second that is remaining on the clock before the hand points at seven o'clock, to drag oikawa's ass out of his house and to make his best friend, his company for today.

"why didn't you ask mattsun to accompany you, instead?" oikawa asked his friend as he trails behind him.

"issei's really busy today, being iwaizumi's personal secretary is not easy at all." makki told him and oikawa scoffed, "i am busy too, you know."

makki turned around to face oikawa with a 'oh-really-fantastic' look on his face. makki crossed his arms over his chest while he narrows his gaze on oikawa's face. makki scoffed at oikawa who's glaring intently at makki, and makki didn't back down, he glares back at oikawa.

if the sales lady didn't approach on time, god knows what might happen inside the department store.

"i am pretty," makki put an emphasis on the word, pretty, while he sneakily pointed at himself. "sure, that you need to do something productive today instead of sleeping." makki spat, which made oikawa rolled his eyes.

oikawa's arms were crossed once again on his chest, "and accompanying you to the department store, is something productive?" oikawa questioned makki and makki nodded his head in approval.

oikawa gazed at makki with a disapproving look on his face. totally disapproving and disappointed with what makki wants to happen.

"yes, that's really productive. besides," makki paused for a few seconds, to scan through the suits that were displayed, before he continued speaking. "sleep is for the weak."

makki stuck out his tongue as he pointed at his dark bags that were under his eyes. oikawa on the other hand gave up arguing with makki, instead he raised both of his hands as if surrendering.

"and i am weak." oikawa retorted.

both makki and oikawa spent an hour or two, before they went at a nearby restaurant to eat. and this somehow made oikawa's day, labelling it as something productive.

makki stares at oikawa while sipping on his orange juice. oikawa, who caught makki staring, was really uncomfortable about it. he tried moving his chair a bit to the left, but makki didn't broke his gaze. instead, he keeps on following oikawa, which made oikawa scratched the back of his head in annoyance.
