Once the team is done practicing for the day, you clean up and say goodbye. While you walk out, you run up to your cousin.

"Yutaro! Wait up!"

He hears you and stops to wait for you to catch up.

"Yeah?"

"Are you going to see her tonight?"

Yutaro becomes flustered. "Y-yeah, I was going to go there now. Do you want to come with me?"

"I can't," you admit "I'm going to Oikawa's to see him and Iwa."

"Gotcha. Don't do anything I wouldn't do."

Yutaro continues to walk, leaving you behind.

"Come on," you say as you run to catch up to him "it's not like that."

"Sure it's not," he teases.

"Whatever," you roll your eyes, "just make sure you make Asuka feel better."

Your cousin nods and then begins to laugh.

"And you make sure to use protection!"

"You're such a dick. You know I said I'm going to Oikawa's house, right? Oikawaaa! Like, you know, Shittykawa."

"God, Y/N, you're even using Iwa's nicknames now? Just confess to him already."

You can feel your face begin to blush.

"W-what are you talking about? How many times to I have to tell you it's not like-"

"Bye, Y/N!" Yutaro yells as he runs away from you.

"Meanie," you whisper to yourself.

--

Once you park your car at Oikawa's house, you text him letting him know you're there. By the time you get to the door, Oikawa already has it opened for you. Behind Oikawa stands Iwa's slightly shorter figure. Before realizing what you're doing you find yourself running towards him.

"Iwa!" you yell as you squeeze Iwa in your hug. "I'm so sorry I got you guys in trouble, I shouldn't have said anything- "

"Where the hell is my hug, Y/N," Oikawa whines, "I got in trouble too, you know."

Without letting go of Iwa, you whisper an apology to Oikawa.

"Dude you're such a shitty guy."

"Stop calling me that," Oikawa cries "you're both so mean to me."

Iwa pulls himself away from your hug and looks into your eyes.

"I'm sorry that I got suspended, Y/N. I couldn't hold myself back after thinking about what Matsukawa did to you."

"Tch," Oikawa whimpers "Matsukawa's such a fucker."

You look at both of the guys standing near you.

"Neither of you need to apologize. I'm really glad that both of you had my backs."

"That's more like it," Oikawa smiles.

"Calm down," Iwa replies.

"Why the hell am I even here," Oikawa groans as he walks into his house.

You follow Oikawa into the family room while walking next to Iwa.

"So why did you want me to come over, Oikawa?" you question.

Oikawa shrugs. "Just wanted to hang."

"Liar!" you call out.

You look over at Iwa and the both of you laugh at Oikawa's expense.

"Man it's annoying how perfect you two are together."

Oikawa's response immediately forces the two of you to stop laughing.

Once in the family room, Oikawa sits on the couch and calls you over to sit with him. Giving a wink to Iwa, Oikawa smiles once you all sit.

"Let's watch something," Oikawa says excitedly.

"No way, you always pick out the worst shit to watch."

"I do not! What's wrong with you Iwa-chan, you're being cruel."

"I'm not, I just don't think Y/N wants to watch one of your dumb movies."

Oikawa looks over at you with puppy dog eyes.

"That's not true, is it, Y/N?"

You look over at Iwa and give him a face that says: What the fuck am I supposed to say?

All Iwa does is smile back at you.

"Well," Oikawa asks, "will you let me pick out a movie?"

You try to speak as sincerely as you can. "Sure, go ahead."

Turning back to Iwa, you whisper, "Thanks for that."

Iwa smiles at you again without speaking.

Once Oikawa's done searching for a movie, he turns to you both and smiles bigger than you have ever seen.

"Oh boy," Iwa groans "which one is it?"

Oikawa clicks on the movie and turns to you, proud as ever.

"You've Got Mail are you fucking kidding me, dumbass?"

"No? Why? What's wrong with it?"

"You want to watch a romcom with Y/N and me right now?"

"Yeah... So what?"

Iwa rolls his eyes and looks over at you.

"It's your call, Y/N."

You look over at Oikawa and then smile sarcastically back at Iwa.

"Fine," you say, knowing that watching the movie will piss Iwa off. "I'd love to watch that with you both."

Iwa groans while Oikawa smiles.

"Yes! Thank you, Y/N! You won't regret it."

As Oikawa turns back to face the tv, you and Iwa exchange glares.

"This will be fun," you tease Iwa.

"I'll get you back for this," he whispers angrily.

"No you won't," you say before sticking your tongue out at him.

--

Halfway through the movie, you hear snoring.

You look over at Iwa and observe him watching the movie, bored as hell. Then you look to your other side and see Oikawa asleep.

What a loser. He puts on a movie that he was so excited to watch and then falls asleep halfway through.

You turn back to Iwa and poke him, but he doesn't budge. Knowing that he was zoned out, you wave your hand in front of his face until he notices you.

"What?" he asks.

"I looked away for a second, what just happened in the movie?" you ask knowing that he wasn't paying attention."

"U-uh I-"

You laugh at him.

"Too cool for this movie, huh?"

"That dumbass picks the worst movies to watch."

You cross your arms and pout.

"Hey that's mean, I happen to be a huge Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks fan actually."

"O-oh," he stutters as he gets flustered "I-I'm sorry I didn't know."

You laugh at him again. "I'm just kidding. Look at Oikawa."

The pair of you look to the side and see Oikawa completely passed out on the couch.

"What a loser. I mean he puts on a movie that he picked out knowing that neither of us gave a shit about it, and then he falls asleep halfway through? Come on."

U-uh didn't I just say the same thing to myself a few minutes ago? Crap, we are kinda alike.

"Hey, Y/N," Iwa says as he pulls out his phone, "take a picture for me, will ya?"

You take the phone from him and snap a picture of Oikawa sleeping.

"Nice," Iwa smiles "I'm gonna show him this next time he picks out a random-ass movie again."

"Iwa," you ask while looking innocently into his eyes "what do you want to do now?"

Iwa freezes up and stares at you.

"U-uh I-"

"Ohh, I know," you tease, "I get the hint. Do it then."

The second you say this, you can feel the butterflies in your stomach.

Why did I say that? I have no idea if that's what he was thinking but I-

Your thoughts are interrupted by Iwa's lips meeting your own.
