[28]

Third Person POV (April 2nd)

In the end, Oikawa never got to call Iwaizumi last night. The setter fell asleep on his bed with dried tears on his face.

Iwaizumi on the other hand was busy collecting certain items for future purposes.

It felt as if there was a timer counting down at an astronomical speed for Iwaizumi. He was scurrying around from place to place to gather everything up for the perfect gift.

Oikawa practically slept through the whole day and woke up at around nine in the afternoon. His stomach was yelling at him, begging for food; but he didn't have an appetite. He looked over at his phone and decided to call Iwaizumi.

(a/n) italics: iwaizumi / bold: oikawa

"Hello?"

"Hajime, hi. Sorry I just felt the need to talk to you."

"Hey, don't apologize. I'm sure we both need each other's support."

"You're really my best friend, huh. What're you doing right now?"

"Praying."

"Oh. I should do that, too. Maybe later. Am I interrupting your praying?"

"No, you're fine."

"Phew... haha."

"Hey..."

"Hm?"

"Thank you. For everything."

"Oh? What do you mean?"

"I just realized I never really told you how much I appreciated you up until now. I just... really wanted to say how grateful I am for meeting you. You've been my best friend ever since we were kids, and you stuck by me for so long. I know it doesn't seem like I care for you at all, but I promise you that you're a really big part of my life. And-"

"Stop it, Hajime. I already know how much you care for me. But please, stop talking like that; as if the world is ending. You're scaring me."

"..."

"..."

"Hey, can I ask you a question?"

"Yeah... sure."

"You love (Y/N), huh? I remember at the Winter festival you said you 'didn't know yourself' but I'm sure now, you've finally realized."

"Yes. Yes, I really, really, really love (Y/N). You love her too, don't you?"

"... No."

"Stop lying."

"I don't love her, I never did. As a friend, yeah of course; but as a lover, no. I only hinted that I 'loved' her to get you jealous. I could clearly see your feelings for her. What I was trying to do was to make you frustrated, so that you can confess to her. She obviously likes you."

"What? No way... you never had feelings for her...?"

"Nope."

"Wow, you really tricked me. Thank you for trying to set us up. But hey, if (Y/N) miraculously fights through this, you can be our flower boy at our wedding. Sound good?"

"Sounds... perfect. Hey, I'm planning on waking up early tomorrow, so I've gotta go."

"Already? It's only 9:42."

"Yeah... my hands hurt, so maybe if I sleep it'll get better. I'll get going now, okay?"

"Oh... okay. See you tomorrow."

"Yeah... see you tomorrow, Tooru..."

Iwaizumi set his phone down as he hung up on his best friend. Looking around the room, he finally had everything prepared for tomorrow.

He looked down at his hands. They really did hurt. From all the writing and strumming. He sighed and got ready for bed. Looking at the corner of his bed, he spotted the Godzilla plush. It gave him flashbacks of the time him and (Y/N) were playing around and having fun. He grabbed the plush and slept with it.

He slowly closes his eyes knowing it was probably his last time sleeping in his room.
