Kageyama panted heavily, smacking down the ball from the other team. He and his team were at a tournament, but he was distracted. It was near break, and he was anxious to see his boyfriend Hinata.

When they were in high school during their first year or so, they didn't think of each other as anything more than teammates. Second year, friends. Third...they were dating, and madly in love. They were eager to play with each other at any given moment. But the time came when they were to take the test to decide what college they were to go to...the differences between the two were drastic. Kageyama was going to a high class prep college, and Hinata to a regular community one. The last day of high school, they'd hugged each other tightly and Kageyama actually cried for once. They weren't ready to be apart.

Every moment before college, they'd spend it together. Kageyama wanted to propose so he could know for sure Hinata was his, but he feared being too pushy, so he waited. This time, he told himself, I'll do it! But he never did. Now during the match, he couldn't stop thinking about it. He had a ring, he was so ready to propose. Last time they had seen each other, Hinata had been pointing into a bridal store and giggling as he told Kageyama the type of dress he'd like to wear when they got married, if ever it were to be so.

"You'll look great in it," Kageyama would say, then cough.

Hinata would smile at his boyfriend and hug him tightly, proclaiming that they'd always be together. Kageyama hoped he was right.

Distracted by his own flooding thoughts and memories, Kageyama set the ball the wrong way instead of to his teammate. His breath hitched and he looked back. They'd lost the match, and the ace didn't look happy at the foolish mistake. Kageyama was put on the bench for the remainder of the matches, replaced by a different setter. Kageyama slammed his fist down hard on the bench, angry at himself for messing up. But how could he not have? Later that day, he'd pick up Hinata from the airport, and they'd hug, they'd kiss, they'd be happy like they used to be!

Kageyama smiled and fiddled with his fingers nervously as he awaited the arrival of his love. The lady at the front desk shouted in a raspy voice that the flight had landed...his heart was racing! He stood up and ran to the doors in an attempt to meet Hinata, searching through the crowd of people that left the plane. He spotted Hinata and rushed over, ready to kiss him. But something stopped him dead in his tracks. Hinata was holding someone's hand. Kageyama slowly moved his eyes upwards, and to his horror, Tanaka stood there.

"Hi...Hinata..." Kageyama managed to say in a low voice.

Hinata looked over and smiled brightly. "Hey Kageyama!"

Tanaka grinned at Kageyama and slapped him on the back. "Long time, no see!"

"Yeah.." Kageyama swallowed and let out a shuddered breath. "So...you two seem closer.." He eyed them with mild disgust and jealousy. Hinata was practically hanging off of Tanaka. "Much closer."

"Yep! We saw each other at the college and decided to go on a date! Now we're happily engaged!" Tanaka nodded and kissed Hinata's cheek. Hinata laughed and blushed, nodding along.

"Of..course. Well then.." He ran a hand through his hair. What could he say? His boyfriend had left him without bringing it up in any of their Skype conversations, texts, emails...He felt betrayed. "I...have a dinner reservation for two in the best restaurant in town. You two can go, since I have no reason to."

"That's so sweet of you, K-chan," Tanaka patted the other's head as he took the reservation slip, walking right past him with Hinata in tow.

Kageyama was left in stunned silence, falling to his knees in the middle of an airport. He didn't cry. He didn't sob. He just questioned "why" and "what." What did Tanaka have that he didn't? Why did Hinata not say anything to him? What changed? Why did anything change? Why do things have to change? Why couldn't Hinata stay with him...

Anger soon filled the void of sadness, and Kageyama stood up. He couldn't believe what had just happened, and he didn't want to, either. His heart burned with a need for revenge, a need to show the two that he was already past it. But how could he? By dating someone else? He thought for a moment and knew it was an irrational course of action, but it was the best thing he could think of. All that was left was to find someone willing to date him. Only one name came to mind...Oikawa Tooru. Oikawa was always so flirtatious towards him, so it made Kageyama wonder if Oikawa was ever serious with what he said. If he was, Kageyama planned on taking him up on an offer and going on a date with him. He'd take him to the best restaurant in town and get a seat near Tanaka and Hinata. He'd show them how easily he could flow with this, and make Hinata sad in the process!

Kageyama went home to think about his course of action. It seemed flawless at first, but after thinking it over for a while, he saw the holes. If he were to go out with Oikawa just to make Hinata jealous, what would happen if Hinata came running back into his arms? He didn't love Oikawa and was only going to use him as a ploy, but if Oikawa really felt for him, ho could he just leave him in the dust? Oikawa was a spiteful person after all, and Kageyama worried about what he would do. What he could do. Tooru could go and try to attack Hinata, and Kageyama wouldn't really know what to do in such a situation. But his mind was eventually made up. He would go with the plan and roll with the punches. He picked up his phone, dialing Oikawa's number..
