I wake up from the light outside shining in my face, I squint and cover my eyes with my arm. I try to go back to sleep but eventually failing. I slowly try to take off Atsumu's arms that are wrap around me. After a few minutes I do end up getting out of his grip, he was all wrapped around me and hella close. I'm surprised I actually managed to get away, I head out of my room and towards the bathroom and do the daily things. As I'm washing my face I remember how Atsumu was acting last night. I hate when he acts like that, if only he knew his that affected me. I love it, but I hate it cause he will still call me his best friend like we don't do things people would only do in a relationship.

I wanna be his lover, I wanna be in a relationship with my best friend.

I get that feeling in my heart again, it's uncomfortable. Why does it feel like this? I'm not anxious, my heart Is not beating faster what is this? I punch the sink softly in frustration, why do I feel like this!? Is it because I know he wouldn't love me back!? He wouldn't, he's straight and will eventually get a girlfriend leaving me for her. I look in the mirror and notice a tear falling down my right cheek, what makes this frustrating is the fact I can't stop this weird feeling. I could hear my door opening, he must be awake. He'll most likely come here first, I really didn't want to see him after feeling like this. I wipe the tear-off of my face and continued to wash my face. As expected Atsumu knocked on the door "You almost done Shoyo?" I heard through the door as my heart skipped a beat. I quickly open the door flashing Atsumu a smile, heading out of the bathroom to my room. The feeling never left, it got worse when I saw him. I place my hand on the left side of my chest, my heart feels like it's aching. I get into my room and sit on my bed, being alone with my thoughts sucks. As if someone heard me I heard my phone going off, Who called me? I answer the phone with a little "Hello?" To my surprise I hear a peppy hello back, was that the great king Oikawa? "Great king!?" I could hear him laugh over the phone "Yes that's me shrimpy! How have you been!?" He says really happy, how could one sound so happy? "I've been okay.. you?" I say not wanting to tell him how I feel but I sadly forgot to filter my voice. He noticed instantly and asked me what's wrong, I sigh. "I'm fine Great king, don't worry," I say trying to lie my way out of this, I hear a sigh from the phone. "I'm coming over," Oikawa said and instantly hung up. Oh I messed up real bad I hope he doesn't bring Iwaizumi, he's scary. Sadly when Oikawa says he's coming over, nothing will stop him.

Atsumu walked into the room looking refreshed and like he's been up for hours, I probably still look like poop. "Hey, Shoyo who were you talking to?" I could sense the slight toxicity in his tone, he thinks it was his brother again. "Don't worry, it was just Oikawa. He should be coming over without permission again." I say and I see that his face relaxes, how many friends did Osamu take from him? "Oh okay, well I'm gonna head out for today. Yknow gotta hang with kiyami today."  Atsumu said bringing his smile back, so that's her name. I smile back at him "Alright I'll see ya Atsumu." He waved me off and headed out of my room to prep for his date. I'm now left alone to my thoughts again, I need to do something with my life. I head out of my room to go to the living room, plopping myself on the couch. After a few minutes of me channel surfing I eventually just shut it off. I hear Atsumu coming and I turn towards him, he cleaned up so nice. He smiled at me and waved "See you Shoyo!" He said in front of the door preparing to open it. I smile and wave goodbye "Bye Tsumu, make sure to have fun!" I say still waving and he finally left.

It's okay he's gonna be fine, he was fine last time. But what if this time is different? I start mentally panicking, what if this really is different? What if he really does get hurt? He never told me where he was going so I can't go help him, oh my gosh I'm so dumb. I need to keep my mind off of this, he'll be fine. I close my eyes and take a deep breath, everything should be fine. I remember the words Osamu said to me,  'he may act dumb but he still has a brain' replays in my head. Atsumu will be fine, I should get a snack to try to keep my mind off of this. I finally open my eyes and walk towards the kitchen. I go to the fridge to look for something, what do I want? I continued to look in the fridge but eventually gave up, maybe I should get something from somewhere else. I end up climbing the counter to reach the highest cabinet, I hate that Atsumu puts my favorite things up here. After sliding through everything I found a bag of popcorn, yknow what I kinda want some. I grab the bag and hop off the counter, smiling in triumph I walked towards the microwave.  After putting the popcorn in the microwave and hearing the satisfying popping noises, I hear the doorbell ring. Ugh, I forgot the great king was coming. I run to the door and slowly opened it, peaking through the little crack. Of course, it was him in the flesh, giving me a little wave. Did he come alone? That's great, Iwaizumi scares me.

"Hey, Short stuff, " The great king said to me, I give him a little smile. "Hey.. g-great king! You really came" I say still a little surprised. "Of course I did, now I'm hungry what you got here?" Oikawa said and just walked past me placing his coat on the rack then walked towards the kitchen. I huff and follow him towards the kitchen "I was just making myself some popcorn, but I'm pretty sure we could find something that you want." I say walking back towards the microwave. I couldn't hear him, he was too quiet. I turned around to see him eating an apple from our basket, he then turned towards me. "Now.." I heard him say in a serious tone.

"Tell me.. what's got you so worked up?"
