tangyuan’s chosen best friends: Oikawa Tooru and Iwaizumi Hajime from Haikyuu!!

“I love Oikawa and Iwa-chan so much, their friendship blooms like flowers and they work so hard together, it’s heartwarming. Their connections to each other are actually the SWEETEST. They tease each other a lot and they help each other when the other needs it. They are everyone’s best friend goals. When I think of best friends, I’ll think of Oikawa and Iwa-chan.” —tangyuan

“I wonder if you’ll let me buy something on the way home.”

I slid the slinging bag on my shoulder. I was thinking of bubble tea. Maybe ice-cream. Stuff that both of us like.

Iwa-chan’s eyes bounced back and forth, navigating the empty streets. He didn’t stop walking. “Maybe not. We have to rest after a long match today, Oikawa.” His fist clenched and relaxed maybe a million times in a second, and he blinked his eyes before letting his gaze fall to the ground.

“Iwa-chan!” I knew he wanted ice-cream. Or bubble tea. Or a strawberry milkshake. “It won’t take long. It’s on the way.”

I bent my back so my gaze could lock with his, but there was no use. He avoided every inch of eye contact. His face turned cold, and his steps fell in synchronisation with mine.

I backed off— and stopped walking. “Are you angry at me?”

His head whipped back at me so fast, I thought he was going to run away and leave me alone on this street. I thought maybe he found me so annoying that he’d finally give up on me now.

But he didn’t— and he sighed.

He swung his bag back on his shoulder and took a turn at the corner of the street. “Come on.” His voice was low, barely audible. His eyes met mine. “What do you wanna get? I was thinking—” an inch of a smile peaked from the edge of his lips— “maybe ice-cream.”
