Oikawa's Farewell

**NEXT MORNING**

You wake up to the sound of birds outside the window.

It's a bit cold, but you get up to see Oikawa's face.

You turn over to look at him. He's still sleeping.

"Aw, how cute."
You think to yourself.

You get out of bed to go make breakfast.

You hear a noise behind you and turn around.

"Hey! What did I tell you about eating on your own?"
Oikawa says.

"Actually, it was more about how you should do the cooki-"

"Nevermind that. Let's go eat breakfast."

He walls towards you and picks you up.
You both head to the kitchen, and he sits you in a chair.

After breakfast is made and eaten, Oikawa walks up to you.

"Hey, so..
I know it's only been about a week we've been together, but I've got a big volleyball tournament to go to. I know I won't have much of a chance there since I failed our last big game, but I still believe we can do it."

"What I'm trying t-to say is..
The trip is going to take three months in total.

Would you be willing to wait for me?"

"Of course! I've got nothing better to do."

He hugs you and starts crying.
You try to move his head so you can look at him but be turns away and holds you tighter.

"Don't look at me. I don't want you to see me cry."

You both sit there in silence. But not the awkward silence. The kind of silence when you're crying to yourself alone, almost.

But Oikawa has you, so he isn't alone.

He wipes the tears off of his face, and looks at you, gripping your shoulders.

"I'd packed my things last night. I leave in a couple of minutes.. I'm sorry this is such short notice-"

You hug him again.

"Don't worry, 'Kawa. Go play volleyball. Be happy doing what you love."

He cries more, and smiles at you.

He grabs his bags, and walks out the door.

But before he gets into the car, he looks at you one more time and says,

"When I get back..

Will you love me, even if I lose again?"
