So with Osamu having confessed, that makes for a total of… a shit ton of love confessions. Damn.
The only one that hadn't confessed yet was Oikawa. To be completely honest, I had been looking forward to seeing if he would confess. He hadn't. At least not yet.
Urgh, I hate waiting for anything! The suspense would kill me! Would he even confess to me? Did he even have those kind of feelings for me?
Oh who am I kidding, he absolutely did. I had already confirmed this months ago! And yet the seeds of doubt had been planted in my mind.
Hmmm, yep, I don't like this feeling at all. Nope, not at all.
"Shoyo! Comfort me!" I burst back into my home after having booked it from wherever the fuck the twins lived.
So I forgot the name of the region, whatever.
Shoyo startled. "Wha-! Matsuo! You're back?"
"No I'm still with the twins and this is just a hallucination." I sarcastically remarked. "But seriously I need some bro hugs."
Shoyo didn't hesitate to oblige me, which was yet another reason I loved him. He never minded physical affection, something that worked out perfectly for me seeing as how I relied heavily on physical affection. I always liked showing my affection through actions rather than words.
"Did something happen?" Shoyo asked me, leaning against my shoulder.
"Oh, you know," I let out a laugh, "just got two more confessions."
"Ah."
And that was the end of that conversation.
Meaning that the hug was over and we went to bed. Because nothing's better than getting a good night's sleep.
Or at least, that was the fucking plan.
Instead of getting a wonderful night of sleep, I was woken up by my goddamn phone.
Someone had the brilliant idea to spam me in the middle of the goddamn night.
I angrily opened my phone, didn't even glance at whoever the fuck was texting me and sent a lovely message.
KingMatsu: why the fuck are you texting me in the middle of the fucking night?
Prettykawa: oh, sorry
KingMatsu: ughhhh, nevermind. Whatdya want?
Prettykawa: well…
Prettykawa: can we talk?
Shit, what did I do? Did I piss him off?
KingMatsu: if this is about the notebooks glued on your ceiling I'm sorry
Prettykawa: okay, two things, this isn't about that, and you're absolutely not sorry
KingMatsu: fair
Prettykawa: I want to talk to you, in person
KingMatsu: can't it wait till tomorrow?
KingMatsu: because if you can't tell
KingMatsu: it's midnight
Prettykawa: again, sorry but this is important
KingMatsu: fine, but if I get caught sneaking out you owe me ice cream
Prettykawa: it's november
KingMatsu: did I stutter
Prettykawa: ok fair, let's meet at the park in 20 min
KingMatsu: sounds good, see ya
So I got out of bed, with much reluctance because it's nice and warm and cozy and soft and- focus!
Somehow, I successfully snuck out the house and made it to the park in record time. Mostly because I wanted to get back into my bed!
I stood there, in the middle of the park underneath a street lantern, shivering from the cold. This had better be worth it.
"You look like you're freezing."
I turned to glare at Oikawa who had just walked up. "Hmm, I wonder why that is."
Oikawa chuckled and sheepishly rubbed the back of his neck. "Sorry, you're usually still awake at this time."
Okay, fair, I did tend to stay up late. What can I say, I'm a bit of a night owl.
I let out a sigh. "Just had a long day and thought I'd get an early night's sleep. I didn't mean to lash out, sorry."
"No need to apologise."
We stood in silence for a bit.
"So… what did you want to talk about?" I finally asked.
Oikawa looked me straight in the eye as he spoke. "Did the troublesome twins confess during your visit?"
"Yeah, they did." At this point I had gotten over the embarrassment of said confessions. I had gotten used to it, I suppose you could say.
Didn't mean I had any answers yet.
My own feelings were something I didn't really want to think about right now, they could wait until I got some good old time to myself.
That opportunity had yet to arise. But I'd get it, and get all of my feelings under control before deciding what to do.
"What's your point?" I raised an eyebrow.
Oikawa awkwardly fiddled with his fingers. "And you didn't answer them, right?"
The temptation to say that I did was overwhelming, Oikawa was being rather adorable at that moment. Looking like a kicked puppy. When did that toll boi become cute? How dare he be so adorable without my permission!
"Nope." I popped the p. "It'd be unfair to the others."
"When did you become so nonchalant about romance?" Oikawa wondered aloud. "I remember you turning into a tomato when we as much as hugged you."
And there's the blush. Dammit.
"It's called experience." I mumbled.
"Is that why you're blushing right now?" Oikawa grinned and leaned into my private space.
"Quiet, that's just the cold."
No I wasn't pouting, quiet! Shut up!
"Of course it is."
"Get out of my face before I punch your lights out." I warned him.
Oikawa hummed. "Sure sure, I'll let you have your space."
He was mocking me, I knew it. That definitely didn't make me pout more.
"If you're just going to tease me like that, I'll leave." I told him. "I could've been in my nice and warm bed sleeping."
"Ah, sorry, sorry." Oikawa was quick to apologise. "Please don't leave."
Why did that sound so desperate?
I raised my eyebrow. "Are you going to tell me why you dragged me out of my bed at this ungodly hour then?"
"Ah, well. Uh." Well that's the… second time I've ever seen Oikawa get so flustered.
"Tooru? Are you okay?"
"Ah yeah, I'm fine!" He quickly answered me. "Just a bit… nervous."
"What for?"
And that's when it set in, the setting, Oikawa's call to get me here, his weird nervousness.
This bitch wanted to confess.
In the most romantic setting yet. In the middle of a november night underneath the light of the street lights.
As if the universe knew what was about the happen, it began to snow. Small snowflakes floating down around us, my breath coming out foggy.
It seemed like a scene from a movie.
"Tooru… are you-"
"You guessed it." Oikawa let out a laugh, some sort of hidden glee in his eyes. "Everyone else has had their moment, their chance. It my turn."
Oikawa closed his eyes and smiled at me. "Matsuo, you're the only I could imagine spending my life with. Thank you for being there when no one else could understand. I decided a while ago that I want to live my life the way I want to. And well, I don't want to do that alone. I want to do it with someone I care about, more than the world."
He began to close the distance between us. "And you know, maybe I can't. But I'd like to try."
Oikawa grabbed my hands. "Matsuo, I love you."
And he kissed me.
The cold left my body, replaced by a warmth I don't think I've ever felt before. The snow around us began to pile up, but I didn't find it in myself to care. Oikawa's lips were warm enough to fight away the cold.
After some time that felt for too short for me, Oikawa pulled away.
"How was that for a confession?" He smirked at me, happiness radiating from his entire being.
And I hadn't even accepted his confession!
"Well, definitely more extra than the others."
And that's the last of the confessions! Now onto the endings and then the story will be... done. Wow, that feels so strange to think about, no longer having to write for this story... Huh
