Your Lie That Night (Iwaoi)

part 4 ~ iwaizumi

I got out of the shower, a towel wrapped around my waist, i checked time for the 1989th time now. I was nervous. I didn't want to be late. Today, saturday at 6pm, me and oikawa were going to the japanese festival. It wasn't  the festival that i was nervous about. It was oikawa. I was uh...uhm i was going to confess to him today. Confess about my feelings towards him. I've been scared to ever let him know cause i can't risk losing my only bestfriend. Yes. Im in love with oikawa tooru. I didnt realize it until my high school first year but yeah. Once the realization hit me, everything around me changed. 

I read my watch and it said 5pm. Even though the festival was not far from my home, i left an hour early because there wasn't going to be a chance that the person who invited should be late. As i walk along the river bank i think back to the times me and oikawa spent. His flirty jokes and his laugh. He is my favourite person in the world. The only person who understands me. The only person who makes me laugh when i have tears in my eyes. He is one in a million. Oikawa tooru.

The reason i thought to confess was because its our last year in highschool, god knows when we would get together again. I was leaving for a university in tokyo. When i told oikawa about it, he looked so happy but when i encouraged him to come with me to tokyo, he refused, saying he had some other things to deal with, after highschool. What's "other things"? I always thought about it. I never asked nor did he ever tell me so i think it isn't that worthy of a reason. But it's his life, i cant just force choices on him.

At 5 45pm i saw oikawa walk to the place we were going to meet. When he noticed me, a smile spread up on his face and i took a mental photo of it. Such a gorgeous person, i thought. His messy brunette hair and his hazel eyes. Ahh what a overload of good looks he was. His jawline wasnt that sharp but it suited him well. While he rushed to me, i took a whole body scan of him. I felt a bit embarassed of myself but still...
He wore white t shirt with a blue denim jacket and black jeans. The typical tooru dressing. I saw him walk closer to me and i looked down on myself  and coincidence or not, i was wearing the same thing. Blue demins and black jeans. I did a mental forehead slap then but i blushed as well. The colourful lighting took care for my blush to not be seen.

"Yahoo iwa-chan! Did i tell you what i was going to wear? Did we decide to twin anytime earlier?"i could see his eyes scan me the same way i did. I flicked his forehead and we started to look around the festival. Oikawa gushed at all the festival things like a little excited kid and i was falling in love again and again with him. Cute cute cute were the only words going through my head but i somehow managed to say "shittykawa" to him.

Just like that time flew quick enough and it was already 9pm. I was silently praying for the time to stop right now because the night would soon be over and i would have to confess to him. I still haven't gathered the right confidence or gotten the right time to do so. Ill do it at the fireworks time. It would help set the mood. Talking of mood, oikawa was acting a bit stiff with me. Maybe it was because of last night. I didnt mind, is what i wanted to tell him. But why did he do that though? I dont understand but i didnt ask because it would just become more awkward for him.
