I feel guilty every time I see you all comment on my story. Right now I need this as an escape. So I hope you can enjoy.

Slowly, I changed out of my gym clothes, and into a pair of light wash jeans along with a hoodie. I couldn't shake the guilt of what I'd said to Noya and Tanaka, and how I so blatantly lied to them. I sniffled, as my short burst of tears was drying up.

As upset as I was, I didn't want to be alone. I'd only think and wallow in my misery more. Oikawa would be waiting for me anyways, I'd be a jerk not to go. I stood in front of the mirror and inspected my eyes, slightly puffy and tinted red. I grabbed the mascara off my desk and carefully applied it. That's a little better I suppose.

I made my way out the door, and began my trek to the ice cream shop. But all I could think about were my friends. We rarely had fights, probably because I never felt like I had to hide much from them. Not to mention they always sensed when something was on my mind. Those senses hadn't changed a bit I guess.

I don't know why I felt I had to hide this thing with Oikawa. Because he was their enemy? I suppose that's valid reason. They'd probably never let me see him ever again. If they even cared after what I pulled back there.

Comparing them to my father...

With all the thinking going on, I felt as if I time travelled to the ice cream shop. I stood outside a small wood-paneled shack colored with bright pinks and yellows. An animated ice cream character stuck out from the side of the building, greeting me with the jolliest of smiles. It didn't seem like the kind of place to find the Oikawa in. Then again he's proven to be full of surprises up 'til now.

The shop bell rang as I opened the door. Oikawa didn't seem to have arrived yet, so I grabbed a booth near a wide window looking out towards the street.

I checked my phone, half  hoping for a message from Noya or Tanaka. Nothing. I felt like crying again.

"Hey! You're here!" A giddy yelp came from my side. Oikawa took the booth seat across from me with a bright smile. My mouth creeped up shyly. "Have you been waiting long?"

"Uh, no, I pretty much just got here." He nodded. I looked down at the table.

"Have you been here before? The sundaes are huge! I recommend the s'mores, it tastes just like an actual s'more!" He giggled a bit, he seemed excited.

"I'll probably get a (favorite ice cream) sundae, ole reliable you know."

"Ah yes, that's always good." A waitress came over to take our order. Before I could answer, Oikawa began ordering for us both. "Do you want anything else?" He asked, turning back to me. I shook my head.

"Thank you" I mumbled as the waitress stepped away.

I couldn't believe how Oikawa acted the last few times we'd talked. His whole aura and personality were so different than the first day I'd met him. I thought about how everyone painted him out to be the biggest jerk of all time. Yet here he was ordering me ice cream in an obnoxiously bright pink restaurant.

"Do you have allergies?" Oikawa suddenly questioned me. I scrunched my forehead, giving him a confused answer of no. "Oh, you're eyes are just kind of red and puffy, that's what happens to me sometimes in the fall."

I touched underneath my eye and felt the puffiness I'd hoped had faded. "Oh, I just had a stressful day that's all."

"(L/n)-San, are you okay?" I felt a wet trail down my cheek. "He- here," Oikawa grabbed a napkin from the table and handed it to me.

"I'm fine, really."

"Are you sure? Do you need to talk about it?" His voice was soft and gently.

"No I'm sure. I'm-" I felt my throat choke up. Oikawa's hand reached across the table.

KNOCK KNOCK!
"Oikawa-san!!!" Three girls squealed from outside a nearby window. Oh my god. "Oikawa-San we love you!"

I glanced up at Oikawa to see a smirk across his face. He gestured a wave to the girls in the window. I scoffed at him. There was the Oikawa everyone had told me about, eating up the attention from his fan girls.

"You're gross," I muttered.

"W-what? No, they're just from my school. I swear-" He stuttered with his words. "I don't want to be rude."

"Of course you wouldn't." I wiped a tear from my jaw.

The waitress stepped up to our table. "Alright, two sundaes, enjoy!" She smiled.

"Enjoy, Oikawa." I grabbed 500 yen from my pocket and tossed it on the table. He stuttered for an apology as I stood up from the booth.

The door bell jangled loud. I shot a glare at the girls fawning over Oikawa in the window as I continued to stomp down the street.

"Woah, I'm sorry. Please don't leave." Oikawa stumbled behind me.

"Just leave me alone, everything people said about you was right." I felt my eyes begin to swell again and I shut them hard.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean how you eat up the attention from everyone. That's all you care about, so self centered." I refused to turn to him. Oikawa grabbed my wrist and pulled me back. "Let me go creep!" I said as I tried to pull away.

"(L/n)-San please just let me-"

"No!" I shut my eyes and tried to turn away again.

He pulled me into him, and I stumbled forward. "Please," he begged. "I'm sorry, that- that was stupid." I didn't speak, didn't even look up to him. "I barely know those girls I think they just come to my games."

"Well you sure looked like you know 'em," I jerked back again but Oikawa's grip was tight. "Just let me go home."

"This is why I like you." I stopped. "You're nothing like them. You say your mind and I'm not used to that with girls. You're not a fan girl robot like the rest. I'm sorry, I wish that hadn't happened." For the first time I slowly looked up to him, tears still sat on my waterline. "I like you and I didn't mean to give you the wrong impression." A moment of silence hung between us.

"Please say something." Oikawa said weakly.

"You really like me? We just met, and I-" Suddenly Oikawa was so close, I felt pressure against my lips and noticed what was happening. His lips were soft and kind. I closed my eyes, and moved with him. Oikawa's hands grabbed my cheeks gently and he pulled away. I stared at him, shocked but happy.

"I really like you," he smiled with red cheeks.

"I think I like you too." I laughed.

Awe que cute. See y'all in a year ahaha :p <3
