Chapter Text
"Come on Tooru-kun! Let's go somewhere this weekend!" [Name] exclaimed with a smile as she grabbed her boyfriends free hand.
"Can't. We need to practice all weekend. We need to run perfectly." Oikawa replied quickly.
[Name]'s smile fell for a second, but she quickly pulled it back up, "AH, okay! I understand. Do your best then! Maybe I can come watch some of your practices instead this weekend?"
Oikawa shook his head. "No one but the team is going to be in the gym. We can't have any distractions." With that, Oikawa jogged back onto the court to resume practice.
[Name]'s smile fell once again. She didn't bother to pick it up, knowing no one would bother will her frustration anyways. Sighing, she decides to head home. "Okay..."
The whole team was secretly watching, paying attention to the interaction between the captain and his girlfriend. No one could say anything though. It wasn't there place, nor would it change anything. Hell, it could make it worse for all they know.
"I'm home." [Name] states as she walks in her house. As usual though, no one answers. It was simply habit. After a year, one would think that habit could be broken, but [Name] couldn't. She didn't want to. It was like she was admitting she was alone. She knew, but it didn't seem quite real. If she openly admits she's alone, then it feels world-crushingly real.
Night after night, [Name] repeats her routine. She comes home after trying to convince Oikawa to do something. She gets settled and eats dinner. A bath and homework follow before she falls asleep at the TV, waiting for Oikawa. After words, she would find herself in bed with Oikawa for a few hours before he takes off for practice again and again. The last few weeks though, a small change in her routine had changed. She no longer woke up in bed with her boyfriend. She would wake up on the couch with a blanket, sometimes, thrown haphazardly on her.
That's when she knew it was over. He no longer cared for her the way he used to. They were just two people living in the same house together.
After another week of being shrugged off, [Name] made a choice. She went to Iwazumi and asked him to help when practice was over, since Oikawa would be staying late again.
With Iwazumi's help, [Name] moved all of Oikawa's stuff to Iwazumi's house.
"Thank you for taking his stuff, and allowing him to stay with you..." [Name] whispered as she finished what she was doing.
Iwazumi shook his head, "It's okay. I understand. It'll get better, [Name]-chan..."
[Name] cracked a sad smile, "Thank you Iwa-chan. I'll see you later."
Iwazumi nodded and took his leave.
That night, Oikawa came home, but couldn't open the door. Iwazumi had been waiting at the house for a half an hour when OIkawa told him that he was going home. He didn't want [Name] to have to deal with a huge scene. Surprisingly Oikawa didn't even try to make a scene. He just got into the car and allowed Iwazumi to drive off. He had lost. Without even realizing it, he had lost the one he loved. There was no telling whether he even had a chance to get her back.
She changed the locks without a word to him.
