Summary
Iwaizumi remembers the day he first bought Oikawa a packet of gum. They were young, maybe 12 or 13, one of his last memories where he was still taller than Oikawa. Every memory from that point on was syrupy, coated in fresh mint and sugary fruit aromas, and craning his head to watch Oikawa’s expressions.

Summary
Oikawa Tooru is bleeding. He feels the sticky substance rolling down his temple mingling with his sweat, feels the dull pounding in his skull. Glass shards litter the asphalt, glistening in the sunlight, as if mocking the devastation that has unfolded.
OR

Summary
There was a boy sitting on the curb outside Iwaizumi’s house.
He’d seen him before: on a swing at the park, beneath the giant oak tree at the edge of the forest, in his class at school. He was Iwaizumi’s age, and he was always, always, alone.

Summary
A few pathetic tears slip down his face. This time from sorrow — any pain he feels has become a monotonous throb hidden behind the heavy pounding of his heart. His mouth dries out, and a headache builds at the base of his neck. Yet, he is utterly alone. Though it’s morning, his world is dark and contained in a cement coffin underneath the floorboards of his volleyball gym.
Oikawa doesn’t know if he’ll ever be able to step foot in this place again once this is over. If he even gets out of here.
He presses his head as close as he can to the ground to relieve his nose of any kind of pressure, and he tries to sleep. Tries. He’s not very successful. More than anything, he’s bored and alone with only his thoughts to keep him company. No music, no entertainment, nothing. Just him, unbearable pain, and his incessant inner voice.
Or; Oikawa Tooru is mugged after volleyball practice and becomes the next victim in a cat-and-mouse game between a criminal and the police. Being tucked away underneath the floorboards of his practice court, Oikawa can no longer escape the overbearing feelings he has for his best friend. Iwaizumi Hajime tries to find his best friend before it's too late.
