"Hold on," Noya said, thrusting the upper half of his body into the back seat of Daichi's car, "I brought something for you guys."

Oikawa leaned against Iwa-chan's arm as Noya dug around. Iwa-chan was smiling slightly, lips curving up more naturally than Oikawa had seen in awhile. They had experienced a pleasant dinner with the Sales Duo and Asahi and Noya, but the sky was slowly falling into blackness around them. Everyone knew about Oikawa and Iwa-chan's... predicament, but they were sure to act like it didn't exist, for the sake of the mood as well as for Oikawa and Iwa-chan's sanity.

It was much appreciated.

Noya sprang upright and shoved his arms forward, two white boxes stacked in his hands, "Here, some leftover desserts from the bar."

Iwaizumi took them graciously. The boxes looked like the kind you got in fancy sweet shops and bakeries. "Oh, I didn't realize they served desserts," Iwa-chan said as he tipped his head at the boxes.

"Yeah, Ukai makes them," Noya responded proudly.

Iwaizumi blinked and Asahi smiled kindly, "The owner of the bar," he explained.

"I feel like he's been baking more since him and Takeda-san got together," Noya mused, glancing up at Asahi to see if he agreed. Iwa-chan quietly handed Oikawa the boxes as he moved to withdraw his lighter from his pocket.

"That's cute," Suga said with a broad smile. "Maybe they enjoy baking together."

Noya's lips turned down, "Really? I just figured Ukai craved sweets after sex."

They all flinched with withheld laughter. Daichi recovered easiest, "Who would even jump to that sort of conclusion?" he asked incredulously.

"Noya," Suga, Iwa-chan, Oikawa, and Asahi all answered at once. 

Daichi threw up his hands, "Should have known."

Noya crossed his arms over his chest, "You're all gonna feel pretty silly when you realize I'm right."

"But Ukai smokes doesn't he?" Suga asked, glancing at Asahi and Noya, "Wouldn't he just crave a cigarette after sex?"

There was a brief pause, and then they all turned to stare wordlessly at Iwa-chan.

Iwaizumi froze, cigarette hanging limply from his lips as he paused mid-motion to light it. "What?" he asked, acting offended, "You think all us smokers just crave the same things post orgasm?"

Oikawa shrugged, "Well... do you?"

Iwa-chan quickly lit his cigarette and puffed out a small cloud of smoke on his next breath, "How the hell--"

Noya leaned into Iwa-chan with big eyes, "Do you crave sweets?"

Oikawa tilted his head and watched Iwa-chan spout smoke from his nose. He shook his head, "Nope."

Oikawa narrowed his eyes, "What do you crave?"

Iwa-chan blinked at him like it was obvious, "Cigarettes and pizza. If I'm awake."

"Ooh, pizza," Suga cooed.

Noya pointed at himself, "I crave Cheez-Its, every time."

Oikawa coughed a laugh.

"Noya what the hell," Daichi said. "That's so specific."

"Goldfish crackers do not cut it!" he announced as Asahi bobbed his head in confirmation.

Iwa-chan was laughing smoke out of his lungs.

"I just have to pee," Daichi said, waving his hands in front of him, "simple."
