"And why should I help you?"

"Don't you want to do your senpai a favor? Rachel."

Oikawa popped another piece of candy in his mouth twisting the aluminum wrapper up between his thumb and index finger. Rachel clicked her tongue at Tooru's statement turning away from him. "Senpai my ass. What girl in their right mind would want to help such a self-centered person. There is a reason we broke up, Tooru." Tooru didn't say a word as he reached over to grab Rachel by the hand. "Please. I swear I will never ask anything of you again... but please."
Rachel let out a loud scoff pulling her hand away. "Listen, Senpai. These games you're playing, even though it isn't with me, is cruel. I'm not going to bother asking why you like this girl so much because it isn't any of my business but we broke up because you got too self absorbed with yourself and volleyball that I couldn't stand it." Rachel stopped herself for a moment hesitant to say the words that came to mind, careful of his feeling after feeling she went too far.

Tooru's hand still reached over to hers stopped in its tracks after hearing her words. She let out a deep sigh hardly echoing through the empty hallway of the school gym letting her hand rest back at her side.

"You never even apologized for neglecting me. I really hated you for a long time, you know."
Rachel reached up taking off her necklace with a light rose gold ring swinging down as she held it up in front of him. "I don't want to see this anymore. So take it back." She took his hand in hers gently placing the ring on his palm. He kept staring though his eyes slightly turning a little red and watery as if he was holding something back deep inside. He stood there stiffly not breaking eye contact with her as she stared back at him. "I can't believe I'm actually going along with this. You're such an asshole." Rachel pulled him into a tight embrace like a mother would a small child. She ran her fingers through his hair as his head rested in on the crook of her neck. Soft plips of water fell to the wooden floor below.

"I'm sorry, Rachel."
