Tooru sighed as he glance at his wrist watch, groggily rubbing his eyes that were squinting to look at the current time. He was currently leaning back in one of the metal chairs at the airport, waiting for the announcement to be made so that He can finally board his flight. 'Great, I still have 20 minutes until Boarding time'  He thought sourly, Still in a foul mood due to waking up so early.

Just then, his phone rang. Absentmindedly, he reaches into his pocket and answered it. "Hello?" he mumbles softly, tilting his head up and looking at the ceiling.

"Yo~ so what time do you think you'll arrive at?"

"hello to you too Makki. Well considering it takes a total of 23 hours, 20 minutes.. uh- 4:20 am? that's in my timezone.."

"so 4:20 pm tomorrow? noted."

"Is.. Iwa-chan coming?"

"Well, You'll just have to wait and see captain~"

"I hate you"

"Uh huh, Maybe you should get some snacks for yourself?"

"Good Idea, Mind if we video Call?"

"..If your internet is strong enough, sure"

"What does That mean Mattsun?!"

"just switch over to video call more already"

Tooru rolled his eyes and yet hums as response and moved his phone away from his ear, he took a moment to swipe the camera on and once Hiroto did the same, Tooru could vaguely see them. 

"You two look like shit"

"As if you look any better!"

There in full display of his phone was both his friends. Though Issei was driving while Hiroto was sipping on a starbuck drink. Both of their hairs were messy and Tooru could guess that they were making out not even a minute ago. 

"If you plan to make out again, do warn me in advance"

"Now what fun would that be?"

Issei mused, eyes still trained on the road. Not once letting the call distract him from driving, he did look hot that way..

"Stop eye-fucking my boyfriend"

"Let him, He can see but you're the only one who can touch baby"

"Do you mean that?"

"Of course"

Tooru playfully gagged "ew PDA, get a room."

"This is revenge for being VERY detailed about your sex life. By the way, what happened to your girl?"

"Oh yea, you usually keep on talking about her"

Issei pulled the car up into a vacant parking lot and now both of them look at their best friend rather curiously. It made Tooru sigh, groan and glare at them. 

"Can we not talk about her?"

"Is the curse broken? I thought that would never happen!"

"She did have him wrapped around her fingers"

"True, How did you two break up anyway?"

"Well.. It went like this"

Location: College Dorm, Buenos Aires, Argentina

Tooru stared at his phone, perplexed. What was he supposed to say after hearing that? After he booked his tickets, he got up and for unknown reasons, he decided to call up his girlfriend Ichiko. While waiting for her to pick up, Tooru got off his bed and made his way to the kitchen to pour himself a glass of water. 

His eyes light up when she finally picked up on the fifth ring, immediately putting his phone to his ear while leaning back against the kitchen island, drink in hand. 

"Chiko-chan!"

"Hmm? mn.. why are you calling me at... 5 am?"

"Sorry to disturb you, my beautiful belladonna. I just really need to talk with someone right now"

"okay.. I'm up, spill."

"So you remember my best friend right? Iwa-chan?"

"Ugh.. How can I forget it when that's the only thing you talk about?"

Tooru frowned, what was she talking about? Iwa-chan was not a thing. He was Tooru's one and only childhood friend, his dear Iwa-chan. But since this was Ichiko.. He let it slide.

"Well, he called me just a few minutes ago."

"WhaT? I thought I told you to delete his number and block it?"

"I- what..? You only told me to delete the number"

"Sigh.. fine, what did he talk to you about?"

"Well.. He was drunk. Usually when the line goes quiet, He fell asleep but earlier I heard his roommate shout at him. It sounded worrying, what if he hurt himself?"

"It means he's cleansing his sins, You know since he's a fag"

"What's wrong with being in love with the same gender..?"

"It's not natural baby, it's a freak of nature"

"But Iwa-chan isn't a freak.."

Tooru looks down at his glass of water, his eyes narrowed with agitation. Who was she to call Hajime a freak when he was the one perfect person out there. Maybe a bit mean, but it was always for a good cause.

"You know what Ichiko?"

"What...?"

"Everyone in college and the team knows that I'm BI"

"So? You still like girls more than boys"

"Remember when I told you that you weren't my first love?"

"Yes.. what about it?"

"Iwa-chan was my first love. Still is. I had a crush on him since I was 4"

"mm.. that's nice... Wait, WHAT?"

"With that being said, I'm breaking up with you. Don't even try to blackmail me, you know all my calls are recorded for a reason"

"..."

Seeing there was no longer a response, Tooru hung up and gulped his water down. His eye twitching as he immediately blocked her from all his social media account, her phone number included. 

After that, he took a deep breath and checked his watch. 5:50am. It read, He hummed and goes to put his phone away. Instead he grabbed his towel, take a quick shower, change into his running gear and went for his morning run to keep his mind off of Hajime and his now ex-girlfriend.

"So that was how, I, the great Oikawa Tooru, broke up with a homophobic girl."

"FINALLY!"

"Damn man, didn't think you had in you."

"Yes yes, though I have to go now. They just made an announcement to board the plane. I sure as hell don't want to miss it. I'll call you guys back later"

"A'ight, have a safe flight captain!"

Tooru ended the call, making sure that his charger was in the accessible compartment of his backpack. His luggage was currently being loaded into the plane cargo so now all he had to do was board the plane. He checked his passport, his wallet and of course his house keys before heading to Gate 5 as the announcement had instructed.

He was lucky he took the first class ticket so his flight there would most definitely be comfortable. Once he found his seat, with the help of the flight attendant, he kept his bag and took a seat. He propped himself up, setting the seat up so that he can lean back and relax. 

He looks out the window, an excited grin on his face "Iwa-chan, Here I come. So you better be there"

Location: Los Angeles International Airport, California, USA

Hajime was leaning on the wall, his backpack slung over his shoulder while he looks around boredly. Though soon his phone rang, he didn't even need to look to know who was calling him. He lazily took out his phone from his breast pocket and swiftly swipes his thumb up, putting his phone to his ear.

"You two better be ready to see me pay back your money"

"I- No! We bought it as a gift!"

"No refunds~ This isn't walmart Hajime"

"Now that's just mean Issei"

"Anyway! What time do you land?"

"Uh.. 12:20 Am, my timezone"

"Issei, google"

"It's the same time as Tooru's"

"4:20 pm too?"

"Yup"

"That makes things so much easier"

"Wait Wait wait- what's this about shittykawa?"

"You'll find out soon enough~"

Hajime rolled his eyes and scowls, huffing softly. He really should have expected this from them, but.. somewhere deep down, He knew he was just as thrilled to see his childhood friend again.

"Earth To Hajime, you still there?"

"I was looking through all the possible options to kill you both and where to hide the body"

"So brutal~"

"Make sure to bury us next to each other"

"Nah, I'll make sure you both are as far as possible from each other"

"Aw! that's just mean"

"Talk about jealousy"

"Shut up!"

"Anyways, video call. Now."

"Gee.. you both had became so bossy compared to last time"

"Why thank you, now turn your camera on"

Hajime sigh yet moved his phone, making sure he look okay before turning the camera on by pressing his thumb over the Camera Icon. Considering he wasn't that rich, his internet connection wasn't as stable as the others. Though it was stable enough for them to see each other clearly.

"Yo"

"That's my line-"

"Not anymore"

"What happened to our grumpy ace? He's being flirty"

"Scary"

"I know"

"Shut up, both of you"

"Ah, there he is!"

"Oop he's back!"

Both Issei and Takahiro chuckle, they were seating on the couch. Relaxing as they watch Hajime's face get tinted with red to the very tip of his ears. He scowls at them and simply flipped them both off making them gasp.

"My god Hajime! We raised you better than this!!"

"We're disappointed, you disappoint us"

"How.. US like of you!"

"You two aren't even my parents"

"Well now we are!"

"You're in deep trouble now Hajime"

"You two are weird, I swear"

"That's why you love us~"

"I-"

'Those who are taking flight XXX, Please head to gate 3 within 10 minutes. We will not be responsible if you miss your flight. Thank you and have a nice day'

"You heard that right?"

"Yea yea"

"Well, I'm going to board the plane now. I'll call you both later?"

"You better!"

"Have a safe flight Hajime"

"Kay, see ya"

Hajime ended the video call, keeping his phone on airplane mode before keeping it. He immediately headed to Gate 3 while the other passengers weren't crowding it yet. It didn't take him long to board the plane, He was even lucky enough that the two people who were supposed to board the plane didn't turn up. So now he had extra space and didn't need to struggle to move.

He looks out the window, letting out a small sigh as he look at the blue skies with gentle eyes. "..If fate allows it, I want to see him again." He mumble, fastening his seatbelt as instructed and absentmindedly watch the crew who were showing them the tutorials to put on the life vest and a few others. Soon the flight take off, Hajime could see how the airport was slowly disappearing from his view and being replaced with the blue sky and white clouds.

"Japan, here I come"
