I woke up in the middle of the night from a dream. I was a princess in the Kingdom of Karasuno, and my father, Daichi was demanding I picked a suitor. This is getting weird. Princes' came from all over Japan to win my hand. Kuroo, Tooru, Tobi, Bokuto, even Wakatoshi were all in the competition. Each of them took me on an extravagant date, and I knew I couldn't choose. Wakatoshi took me horseback riding, Kuroo took me to dinner on the lake, Bokuto took me on a moonlight stroll, Tooru took me to see a play, and Tobi, he took me to watch a duel. My date with Tobi was different. Tobi had been my knight. He was assigned to guard me, but after hearing of my upcoming he told me that he loved me. Our love was forbidden though. I was a Princess, I need to marry a Prince, I need to strengthen our alliance with the other nations. So knowing I could never marry him, for one night, we pretended. We pretended like everything was different and he took me out like I was a normal girl who he could love. Each relationship was special to me and I didn't want to lose a single one of them, so I began to cry. Great, even in my dream I was a cry baby. And as I sat there crying my eyes out, Aiko descended from the sky with wings. You're kidding..... It was at that moment that I woke up and knew what I had to do. I quickly snuck out of bed and dialed Aiko's number.

*groggily* A: Hello?

"Hey Aiko, were you asleep?"

A: WHAT DO YOU THINK MORAN.

I looked at the time on my phone. It was 3:30 in the morning.... ooops. "I am so sorry Aiko. Go back to bed, I'll call you tomorrow."

A: No, it's fine. I'm already up. You wouldn't have called, let alone been awake this early if it wasn't important. What is it?

"I feel bad."

A: Yeah, this whole being your friend thing is a full time job.

"So I've been told."

A: It's fine. I wish I could say I knew what I was getting myself into when I signed up for the job, but at least I can say you keep things exciting.

"Aiko, I love you."

A: I know. Now, tell me what's wrong so I could solve your problem and go back to bed.

"I think I'm in love..."

A: Who with this time?

"Huh?"

A: My money is on Tooru again, but I really want to be Bokuto.

"Can you not make this seem like a game?"

A: But it is.

"Excuse me?"

A: (P/N), you know I love you, but your emotional barometer is so out of whack. You're either at zero or a hundred. You think just because a guy shows the slightest bit of interest and you have some feelings for them too that you love them, but that's not true.

"I don't do that."

A: Okay, fine. Prove me wrong. Who is it this time? Tooru?

"Yeah.... and Kuroo.....and Tobi."

A: Woah, plot twist, she actually discovers her feelings for her friend.

"Aiko. This isn't a joke. I love them all."

A: You understand that's physically impossible. When you love someone you can't picture being with anyone other than that person. You don't love any of those guys.

"That's not true."

A: (P/N), listen. I'm too sleep deprived to hold your hand and lie to you. It's no surprise they all simp heavy for you, but it's not mutual. You just don't want to hurt their feelings so you tricked yourself into thinking you were in love with them all. I'm actually really surprised that Bokuto isn't on this little list. You know what, nope, I don't want to give you any ideas.
