Summary
Oikawa is nine when he first hears the word. The boys on the playground whisper it like it's dirty, like the way they daringly mutter the word fuck and then look over their shoulders to check their parents hadn't heard.
"You know Abe-kun from class?" they snicker, hands cupped around their mouths like they're passing along a filthy secret. "I hear his older brother is... gay."

Bookmarker's Notes
I cried a bit (an understatement)
reread!!
little under halfway throughGraduation comes and goes in a whirlwind of tears and farewells and cherry blossoms, and a few days into their break, the third-years of the volleyball team meet for ramen for possibly the last time in a long while.

Summary
This is when Oikawa turns towards him, facing Iwaizumi fully. One of his legs is slightly folded and tucked against his front, with both of his hands resting atop of his thigh. His eyes roam across Iwaizumi’s face as though he’s searching for something; subjecting Iwaizumi to that familiar scrutinizing gaze that often leaves him feeling strangely exposed. “You practice,” he says matter-of-factly. “With me.”
Iwaizumi can feel the exact moment his brain decides to short-circuit.
or: oikawa teaches iwaizumi how to kiss.

Bookmarker's Notes
like riiiight at the end
Affection blooms behind his sternum, it spreads its roots far and wide until it feels like the entire upper half of his body is somehow filled with the first rays of the morning sun; a gentle warmth that presses into his organs.

Summary
Simultaneously, Oikawa slides off the couch until he’s kneeling in front of Iwaizumi and glancing up at him. His gaze is heavy-lidded while a flush spreads across his cheeks, coloring his skin a magnificent shade of crimson. It’s accompanied by a knowing smile, which causes Iwaizumi to bite down on his lower lip. God, those glasses really look good on him.
“You can fuck my mouth while I wear them,” Oikawa says then, dragging the syllables out and painting them across Iwaizumi’s skin with warm breaths.
Iwaizumi chokes on his next inhale.
(or: oikawa gets a pair of new glasses and iwaizumi really likes them).

Summary
“I almost lost you,” Tooru tells him, each word whispered so quietly that they disappear among the shadows of the room the moment they fall from his lips. There’s a familiar ache in his throat and he attempts to swallow around the tightness that appears to have settled there. As he inhales deeply, Hajime’s fingers brush against his jaw; warmth blooming beneath his fingertips.
“But you didn’t,” Hajime reminds him. “I came back. I will always come back for you.”
or: a prince and his knight finally reunite.
