Consider an IwaOi commuter AU
Where Iwaizumi and Oikawa don’t know each other and attend different schools but take the same train every morning.
Like Iwa has morning practices for volleyball club everyday so he has to take an early train and he always chooses the last carriage because it’s quieter and he could take a nap before he gets to his stop.
Oikawa, who is overwhelmed with all the girls ambushing him during usual peak time, changes his routine one day and tries to find the most isolated carriage to ride in.
Oikawa finds this boy always taking nap on the train but managing to wake up right before his stop and getting off on time.
There is always exception in life and one day Iwa doesn’t wake up in time and Oikawa tries to wake him up at Iwa’s stop and that’s the first time they talk.
Iwa stays awake the next morning and greets Oikawa when he boards the train. They has a nice conversation before Iwa has to get off the train.
It becomes a routine: greet, chat and say goodbye.
They exchange number the second week they know each other because Oikawa doesn’t manage to finish one of his story and he’s too excited to wait for another day.
Oikawa invites Iwa to his school festival, and that’s when Iwa realises how popular Oikawa is.
Iwa invites Oikawa to his school festival in return and Oikawa’s appearance causes a stir and all of Iwa’s friend are convinced that Oikawa is Iwa’s secret boyfriend, because what can be other possible explanation that someone as hot as Iwa never shows any interests in girls.
Iwa’s super flustered with all the sudden questions about his “secret relationship” with Oikawa from his friends and apologises to Oikawa for his friends’ misunderstandings.
During the festival, Oikawa overhears some girl talking to her friend that she decides to confess to Iwa and her friend encouraging her and saying that Iwa would be more than happy to have someone as cute as the girl to confess to him instead of some pretty boy.
Oikawa doesn’t board the train the next Monday.
Oikawa gets a text from Iwa asking whether he’s okay. Oikawa lies he overslept.
It’s the same day Oikawa admits to himself that he really likes this boy who’s nice, and cute, and caring, and sacrifices his morning nap just to listen to him rambling nonsense and always tries to hide his yawn so Oikawa won’t feel guilty.
Oikawa misses the train the next day because he couldn’t sleep at all with his revelation and overslept for real this time. He feel both relieved and guilty for not wanting to face Iwa yet.
Iwa thinks Oikawa is avoiding him because Oikawa is uncomfortable of the idea of Iwa might be interested in boys and this is his way of saying he’s not okay with it.
Iwa doesn’t want to lose Oikawa as a friend, even though in secret he does harbor other feelings for Oikawa.
Iwa takes an early train home and gets off at Oikawa’s stop and waits for him to explains (and lies if needed) and gets his friend back.
Iwa falls asleep while waiting for Oikawa, and when he gets woken up by Oikawa, he accidentally confesses instead of apologising.
Oikawa starts tearing the moment he registers that Iwa likes him back and it’s a mess of tears and clumsy hugs and a lot of reassurance on both sides.
Iwa brings a pack of milk bread for Oikawa the next morning, and while Oikawa chews his breakfast, he lets Iwa take a nap on his shoulder.
They don’t say anything out loud but their touching fingers placed between them speaks for them.
Now the routine goes like this: greet, chat, and say goodbye with a kiss on the cheek.
(They may or may not end up applying for the same university.)
