kawa says: TELL ME TELL ME TELL ME YOU WANT ME WANT ME WANT ME TOO

.・゜-: ✧ :-　

"A-ARE YOU BEING SERIOUS?"

"Yep! Anything to get my two beloved friends together!"

Oikawa wrapped his arm around the girl's shoulders. "And trust me, I know exactly what to do to get him to confess!"

"But are you even sure he feels that way...?"

The pretty boy grabbed her shoulders and forced her to look him in the eyes. "Darling, if I wasn't sure then I'd never do this. It's so obvious. He's cuddled with you for the love of god! I'm sure he likes you back."

"Okay...I trust you." She smiled lightly, making him smile back in advance.

"Something you probably shouldn't do," Hanamaki commented and leaned back on his heel as Matsukawa walked beside him. "You should listen to me babes, Hajime over here will probably break if you do anything too rash."

"Yep. You know, Hajime once mentioned you in a conversation about girlfri-"

Oikawa shoved his hand onto Matsukawa's mouth and pushed him away. "About giving birth for biology since you're one of the few girls he knows!"

"Uh...that's weird." L/N lifted an eyebrow questioningly.

"Yeah well, he's kinda weird."

"But seriously if you really want to make him lose his mind, I'll tell you." Makki grabbed her hand gently and led her away, winking at Oikawa who was fuming at this point.

'Ugh, and I wanted the glory of being the one getting them together!'

.・゜-: ✧ :-　

Makki and L/N walked out, her looking down, obviously flushed and embarrassed. She was covering her head and face while he had a stupid smirk plastered on his lips.

Matsukawa nudged Iwaizumi, Oikawa scoffing and looking away. Iwaizumi looked at her and looked a bit surprised.

"Huh? What happened to her?" He asked Oikawa. The male rolled his eyes.

"Makki probably said something to her." He trailed off. "Something..."

"Well, whatever it was she seems really embarrassed about it."

"You care so much for her!" Oikawa laughed. "And I thought you were a cold-hearted ba-"

-wham-

"Are you kidding me! I was having like...a cool moment!"

"Shut up." The boy sighed heavily. "Hey, aren't we having a practice match against Karasuno today?"

"Hm...I'm pretty sure." Oikawa thought with a smile. "Ahah...I can't wait to beat Kageyama into a pulp! It's going to be the most satisfying victory we'll ever have! Well...until we crush Ushiwaka. Then that'll be second. But still!"

"We..." Iwaizumi said slowly. "You're using we."

"Of course!"

He smiled lightly, chuckling to himself.

"Okay, let's start practising! Karasuno should be here any minute now!" Oikawa called out, making the rest all nod in response and comply.

.・゜-: ✧ :-　

L/N watched from the sidelines, puffing out her cheeks in annoyance while she had watched the match. Apparently, while training, Oikawa had sprained his ankle so he had to rest somewhere else. It was disappointing, Oikawa not being there meant Iwaizumi wasn't at his full potential.

Wait, why does she care so much..? ...Because they're friends, of course! That's it!

She scooted over and placed her hands on the metal bench she had chosen to sit on. She leaned forward and watched, her eyes glued to the court. It was surprisingly intense. Apparently, Karasuno was supposed to be bad or more specifically, fallen, but they looked really cool to her.

Iwaizumi spiked down a ball, Karasuno unable to recieve it and scoring Aoba Johsai a point.

L/N smiled and clapped her hands lightly. "Cool spike!" Was that the right wording? She had no idea and didn't listen to how those boys talked.

Iwaizumi looked over to her and spared her a tiny smile, then looked away. Makki nudged his elbow, the other male scoffing in response to the pink-heads supposed quip (which she didn't get to hear).

It went on like this until Karasuno called a timeout. L/N rushed over to her friend and his team. While she had been running, she thought about what the pinkhead said.

"If you really want to drive him up the wall, compliment him then start to say something and in the middle of saying it, stop yourself and say never mind. He'll be really curious, wanting to know what you were going to say."

She bounced over to her friend and smiled at him. "You're really good at this whole...sport thing!" She then flushed up and scratched at her cheek. "I think...actually....nevermind that."

Iwaizumi simply laughed at her nervousness (that may or may not have been fabricated) and pat her shoulder, a more-so friendly act.

'I thought you said he liked me.' She thought, internally frowning even if she was smiling widely on the outside.

As he turned away, the girl puffed out her cheeks and frowned. Despite her given meek and nervous personality, she wasn't a quitter.

She wasn't going to give up yet!

.・゜-: ✧ :-　

"Iwaizumi-san, you were totally-!"

"Sorry, give me a second."

.・゜-: ✧ :-　

"Hey, here-"

"Oh, thanks." He turned away immediately, ignoring her completely apart from the small thanks.

The girl stood there in shock, wondering how he could change so much when he played a stupid game like this.

.・゜-: ✧ :-　

Irritated uncharacteristically, L/N had finally grown the balls to go for a more bold approach. She decided to go for physical touch!

Even if it took her 20 minutes of hyping herself up.

"Iwaizumi-san!" She called out, walking over to him. Right before he could turn away from her again, she placed her hand on his shoulder, smiling widely. "I think you should go for a more...bold approach next time!"

...

"Oh. Thanks for the advice." He shrugged her hand off casually, walking away.

Once again, the girl stood there in shock.

.・゜-: ✧ :-　

The game was over. L/N stomped back to the bleachers sulkily, sobbing comically into her jacket sleeves. Why couldn't he just take the hint? Was he really that oblivious? Or was she not obvious enough?

"Guess my plan failed..." Makki sighed, shaking his head. "That means Oikawa's plan is never gonna work."

"Hey! I'm 100% sure that after she listens to my advice, she'll have him way more than just head over heels!"

L/N sniffled and wiped her eyes. "G-give it up, guys...HE'S NEVER GONNA LIKE ME BACK!"

She sobbed.

Oikawa flinched from the loud wail, leaning back and whispering to Mattsun. "This guy really needs to just tell her already...this is so depressing."

Iwaizumi just left the changing room. He looked to L/N and smiled. "Hey. You wanna walk home?"

She looked up at him with shiny eyes. "No...you can just go without me." She still felt upset from earlier.

"Aw...but walking home is so much more fun when I'm with you."

Her heart pounded in her chest. Her brain went static. Her face flushed up. Her stomach twisted into knots. "A-ah! I'll come along! I-if you really think so!"

She couldn't help but smile uncontrablly  as he chuckled and held her bag for her. They walked out, the girl's mood now taking an incredible 180°.

Mattsun watched in disbelief. "She isn't even phased by her failures...he makes her forget everything."

"Awhhh...young love..." Makki wiped a tear.

"I HOPE THEY FIND OUT THEYRE RELATED" 

Oikawa was dumped via text not even ten minutes later.
