First Date w/ Iwaizumi Hajime
the first thought that ran through iwaizumi's mind was: "can i really do this?"
he's been debating with himself for about an hour now, whether he should finally ask you out today or not.
you've been on his mind the whole day ever since he overheard one of your friends gushing about some guy who asked you on a date but you rejected.
"iwa-chan," oikawa whined as he tossed the ball over to the ace. "are you still hung up on that?"
iwa almost didn't catch it, his focus completely thrown off. "huh? what are you talking about?"
oikawa rolls his eyes and gets another ball. "i'm talking about y/n and the fact that she's rejected every guy who wanted to ask her out."
oikawa has known of iwa's crush on you since 1st year but not once did he talk about it. now, 2 years later, iwa still hasn't made a move on you and it was getting annoying for the setter.
"you know, if you're never going to try, i just might," oikawa smirks and this pulls iwa's attention towards him. "i mean, who can reject me?"
iwa knows what he's talking about. every girl in seijoh has fallen for oikawa's charms at least once over the years.
thinking about this, iwa snickers and looks away. it surprisingly left a bitter impression on him. is he really going to let trashykawa ask you out before him?
upon seeing iwa's sour face, oikawa laughs and approaches him, patting him on the back.
"i'm kidding iwa-chan~" he pokes his tongue out. "and besides, i think we know who y/n really wants."
as if on cue, iwa suddenly sees you walking past the open doors of the gymnasium. he immediately feels his breath get taken away but before he can think twice, oikawa has already pushed him in your direction.
he slightly trips on his feet and almost bumps into you but he catches himself.
you jump in surprise. "oh! iwaizumi!"
hearing your voice calling his name had him blinking. what just happened?!
he quickly shoots a glare towards oikawa before turning back to you.
"ah, y/n!" iwa smiles and awkwardly waves at you. "what are you doing here?"
iwa mentally slaps himself. what kind of stupid question was that? you go to the same school.
"i'm on my way home," you laugh.
but that's a lie. your house is on the other side of the campus but you find yourself passing through the gym every day just to get a glimpse of iwa playing.
"oh," he chuckles. "well.. uh.. get home safely."
you smile and nod, turning to take your leave.
iwa sighs but then he feels a smack on his shoulder.
"if you don't do it now, you're going to regret it," oikawa's voice filled his mind and before he could react, he's being pushed forward again.
you look back to see him running after you. "hmm?"
"um.. i was just wondering," iwa puts his hands in his pockets and looks to the side. "why... did you reject all the guys who asked you out?"
the question surprised you and it was evident on your face.
"ah no! i didn't mean–" his eyes widened as he waved his hands in front of him.
sighing, he looks into your eyes and finally asks, "what i wanted to say was... if i were to ask you on a date, would you also say no?"
there's a long pause and iwa scolds himself internally for being so awkward. but then he sees you smiling, your small giggle filling his ears.
"i thought you'd never ask," you sigh.
"to answer your questions, i've been rejecting them because i was waiting for you. and no, i won't reject you iwaizumi."
the way iwa's eyes lit up had you laughing again but your moment was interrupted by oikawa shouting in the background, telling iwa it's time for practice.
"yeah i'll be right there!" he smiles. "i'll see you tomorrow then? around noon?"
you eagerly nod and then you go on your separate ways.
that night, you were both restless, tossing and turning around in bed because you were too excited.
when the next day came, you were up early, preparing yourself for the date and iwa was doing the same.
he never thought he'd ask oikawa to lend him clothes (he said he wanted to look good but oikawa just told him to be himself which was actually a pretty good advice)
your date consisted of going around town, trying different food, and window shopping. iwa had asked you beforehand what you'd like to do and you told him there's nothing really specific that you'd like.
so that's how you settled on watching a movie together, wanting to take a break from walking around all day.
oh how nervous you both looked when the lights dimmed. and your hands kept on brushing against each other while reaching for your shared popcorn.
but honestly, you were both so happy right then. no words could explain it.
iwa may not have been able to hold your hand in the theater but when you were on your way home, he found an opportunity to do so.
the city was busy tonight, with lots of cars passing by. and just when you were about to cross the street, iwa just swooped in and held your hand.
"it's dangerous," he simply says, trying to act cool and nonchalant but you knew he was nervous, with the way his hand was slightly shaking.
"thank you," you smile and squeeze his hand to let him know it was totally okay.
when you arrived home, you were smiling from ear to ear. iwa had been such a gentleman throughout your date. well, he always has been.
just before you parted, you took a deep breath and said, "i don't usually do this on the first date but," you lean closer and place a soft kiss on his cheek. "you're special, iwa-chan."
ah, that nickname. that cute nickname that seemed even cuter when you said it.
he's smiling now, cheeks heating up from your kiss.
"you're special to me too, y/n," he takes your hand and kisses it. "right from the start."
that night, you both said your good byes but with the promise of a next date in the following days.
and just as you went inside your home, you swore you saw iwa jumping and smiling from ear to ear before he disappeared from view.
