Letters overcome distance

Summary:

It all begins with an (electronic) letter, Tooru sends Hajime because they are too busy at the moment to have proper, long talks via phone: Tooru, playing in Argentina. Hajime, studying in Japan.
But they never fail to show each other, how much they care...

Thank you for initiating the Fluff week! <3
I go for the lyrics prompt list and finish each chapter with max. 420 characters.
Written originally on my twitter account, kimyeonseo.

Chapter 1: - Oikawa - You let me know there's nothing in this world I can't do

Summary:

Tooru's first match in Argentina is coming up.
His big chance to perform.
And suddenly, insecurities hit him.
So he decided to text Hajime...

Chapter Text

Dear Iwa-chan,

do you remember bringing me back on track?
Hitting my nose with your forehead hard, that it bled?
How you had always kicked my butt when I needed it the most?
You let me know there's nothing in this world I can't do.

I'm in Argentina, in my small 1R apartment and I'm scared of the upcoming match.
The match where they actually want to let me play.
Me. Scared. Of a volleyball match.
Can you believe this?

Because it's my chance to prove them, that they have a great setter in their team.
That I shouldn't sit on the bench, but make my way right to the court.
Therefore, I'm anxious.
But thinking of you, I know what you would say:
"Dumbass, what are you afraid off? You're the one who trained most of everyone! Shut up and kick asses!"
And even if I can't see you now, if we can't talk now, I have to chuckle a bit.
You're right.
That's what I'm here for.
