OIKAWA REO

"sleep, you idiots." i whisper to myself before smiling, ruffling the hair of the sleeping guy beside me softly.

of course, it was tobio-kun.

they're sleeping here on the living room's floor. good thing that there's a thick carpet tsukishima's mother lent us for them to sleep on.

they all are knocked out after intaking some knowledge for their own good, while the tutors are worn out because of teaching the two test flunkers.

while me, of course, i'm still continuing our project with the finishing touches.

i might've done this project by myself but if it ain't for tsukishima and yamaguchi, i won't be able to finish this in one night.

i sigh, staring at tobio-kun's sleeping face.

"what is this feeling you are making me feel, idiot?" i ask him lowly, trying hard so that he can't hear me.

i shook my head and diverted my attention back to the project.

"what feeling?"

my eyes widened as soon as i heard his voice. he heard that?

"go back to sleep." i demand, focusing on the project.

as i heard no reply, i sighed and made my pace on finishing the project faster, until i felt that tobio was sliding his head onto my thighs, making it seem like i'm a pillow.

"am i a pillow to you, young man?" i ask him in annoyance.

"at least my head's elevated, unlike on the carpet." he answers, closing his eyes.

"it's already 4 am. aren't you done yet? don't you need some sleep?" he asks, not opening his eyes, which made me focus on the project again.

"it's nearly done. Just a few more designs. besides, i'll drop by seijoh's gymnasium by 5 am." i answer.

"can i come with? i've been asking oikawa-san to teach me on some serves and he still didn't respond." he asks, making me chuckle.

"as long as you sleep, i'll make sure that you'll tag along." i say, looking at him.

"alright."

after that word, i felt the heaviness of his head.

well, he fell asleep easily. hope all.

as i finished the project, i sighed and waited for the time to pass.

what the heck is this feeling in my chest?
